Keywords: creative ability, evaluation sphere, home reading, interpretation of the text, methodology

Abstract

The article discusses actual issues of the aspect "Home Reading" at the French language classes at the university. It describes forms of tasks and exercises that facilitate involvement of junior and senior students in the process of reading foreign literature in the original. Attention is given to types of extensive study and analysis of the text. Interpretation of a foreign language text includes the following stages: exposure, analytical-evaluation, analytical-linguistic and creative interpretation. The stage of exposure is characterized by immersion in a certain cultural and historical epoch and creation of an emotionally-emotive tone of the lesson. The analytical-evaluation stage implies discussion of problems raised in authentic texts. Analytical-linguistic stage is aimed at deepening the language skills on the material of classical works of French authors. The stage of creative interpretation is aimed at developing evaluation sphere of students, their creative abilities and speaking; it corresponds to such types of tasks as discussion of disputable issues of the text, assignments of a creative character to form cognitive skills of students.
