Abstract

The article analyzes the significance of the use of authentic texts in the study of a foreign language, and especially in the development of communicative competence of students. It shows us some examples of exercises that will help to work with the authentic text, based on the language practice of students in the classroom. Considerable attention is paid to the study of linguistic and communicative features of the English spoken language, which is characterized by the use of colloquial vocabulary and phraseology, mainly short, simple syntactic constructions, expressive intonation, in the formation of linguistic and sociocultural competence in teaching English. We have characterized the advantages of using authentic texts to form the communicative and socio-cultural competence of high school pupils during English lessons. The use of authentic English texts in the process of learning English is promoted by: increases communicative and cognitive abilities, which as a consequence increase motivation of students; positive influence on the person-emotional state of students; providing possibility of contemporary appeal to the language and culture; formation of socio-cultural competence. We have suggested a list of exercises for learning English spoken language on the basis of authentic artistic texts. The combination of exercises proposed in the research provides the consistent and gradual formation of lexical-grammatical skills in the use of lexical units of English spoken language and should help students learn new material. The article concludes that it is necessary to introduce the use of authentic materials in the lessons. Development of approaches, ways and methods for working with authentic texts on English lessons is possible in further research.
