2. Чтобы облегчить работу на самом экзамене, в период подготовки к ЕГЭ, необходимо научить ребят пользоваться определенными клише, которые должны быть усвоены и использованы в предварительной практике. Ребята должны сами выбрать варианты клише и в дальнейшем использовать их при написании личного письма на экзамене.
