- 1. SPEAKING PART 1 (INTERVIEW) Using language for social purposes
- 2. AVOID GIVING SHORT, UNCOMMUNICATIVE REPLIES. • Q: Tell me something about your family. • A: I live with my mum, dad and sister and brother. (Don't stop there!) My sister's younger than me and still goes to school. My brother works as a computer technician.
- 3. AVOID SHORT, 'YES', 'NO' ANSWERS TO CLOSED QUESTIONS • Q: Do you have any plans for a holiday this year? • A: Yes. (Don't stop there!) If I get the chance I'd like to visit my friend in Germany. We haven't seen each other for a while and I'm really looking forward to seeing him and getting to know Germany.
- 4. • Q: Do you play any musical instruments? • A: No. (Don't stop there!) We had music lessons when I was at school but I was never very good. AVOID SHORT, 'YES', 'NO' ANSWERS TO CLOSED QUESTIONS
- 5. OFFER EXAMPLES TO HELP YOU EXPLAIN A STATEMENT • Q: Why are you preparing for the FCE exam? • A: No reason really. (Don't stop there!) I enjoy learning English and I think it would be good to have a qualification to show my level.
