SPEAKING TEST

February speaking test will last approximately 10 minutos each pair. It will consist of an interview: two students interact asking questions to each other. You will be given a card with prompts to build up questions to ask your partner.
Depending on your speech, you might have to do second task: a monologue talking non stop for 2, 3 minutes about a topic.

SAMPLE INTERVIEW  STUDENT A

Ask your partner questions.

What kind/thing / normally /save money for?
How expensive/be / eat out / in your town/city?
Have /got /...(e.g. a car / bike/digital camera) ?
How long / have (it/them) ?
What kind of transport/never/use?

SAMPLE MONOLOGUE

Talk for about 2 or 3minutes about the public transport system in your country.
How do you usually travel?
