People tend to delay tasks that make them feel anxious, bored or insecure; putting the task off brings short-term relief, which reinforces the habit.

FAN OLIMPIADASI: INGLIZ TILI

7–11-sinflar uchun olimpiada savollari — tayyorgarlik to'plami (mashq testlari), javoblari va izohlari bilan, 2026

34 ta variant • 1020 ta topshiriq • javoblari bilan

Mashq to'plami • 2026–2027 o'quv yili

Imtihon tuzilishi va yo'riqnoma

• Ushbu tayyorgarlik to'plami ingliz tili fanidan olimpiadaning maktab, tuman (shahar) va viloyat bosqichlariga tayyorlanayotgan 7–11-sinf o'quvchilari, fan o'qituvchilari va repetitorlar uchun.

• Savollar oddiy maktab testlaridan qiyinroq — olimpiada uslubida: ko'p bosqichli fikrlash va «tuzoq» variantlar bilan. Mavzular: grammatika, so'z yasalishi, frazali fe'llar va idiomalar, gap transformatsiyasi, xatoni topish, o'qib tushunish; 1-qism 7–9-sinf (B1), 2-qism 10–11-sinf (B2/C1) darajasida.

• To'plam: 34 ta variant × 30 ta savol = 1020 ta mashq testi. Har bir savol ostida to'g'ri javob va qisqa izoh, hujjat oxirida javoblar kaliti bor.

• Tavsiya: variantni vaqt belgilab (har bir savolga 2–3 daqiqa) javoblarga qaramasdan ishlang, so'ng izohlarni o'qib, xato qilingan mavzularni chuqurroq takrorlang.

• Muhim: bu mashq testlari — rasmiy olimpiada topshiriqlari yoki ularning javoblari emas. Olimpiada bosqichlari, formati va topshiriq turlari har yili e'lon qilinadi: rasmiy nizom va e'lonlardan aniqlang.
