  We show that in theories with a nontrivial kinetic term the contribution of
the gravitational waves to the CMB fluctuations can be substantially larger
than that is naively expected in simple inflationary models. This increase of
the tensor-to-scalar perturbation ratio leads to a larger B-component of the
CMB polarization, thus making the prospects for future detection much more
promising. The other important consequence of the considered model is a higher
energy scale of inflation and hence higher reheating temperature compared to a
simple inflation.
