Can you please give me tips for speaking , I am stuck on 6.5
I don't know where you're from, but I've been living in the US for 8 years now, so I have an American accent and the speaking exam was just another conversation for me, even though the 3rd part of the exam dealt with some philosophical topics. Here are the questions I was asked:
Part 1:
What is your full name?
Are you studying or working?
What do you like about where you work?
Is science important?
Should science be taught in primary schools?
Were you taught science in primary school?
How do you use science in your everyday life?
Part 2:
Prompt was 'Describe a time when the weather caused you to change plans. What was your original plan? What did you do instead? How did having to change your plan make you feel?'
I made up a story about how heavy snowfall caused me to cancel my plans to attend a New Year's party at my local bar. Here I just incorporated the fact that I live in Wisconsin and it gets a ton of snow into the story, And then made up something about how I spent the night instead.
Part 3:
Since the prompt was about weather, the 3rd part questions were an related to weather.
Is predicting the weather difficult?
How do people get their weather information today?
Do you thing this accessibility of weather is causing more people to be interested in the weather?
Do you think humans play a part in climate change?
What do you think humans should do to address it?
What should individuals do?
What can governments do?
Do you think the recent pandemic will cause governments to divert money set aside for climate initiatives to dealing with the pandemic?
For fluency, it helps if you speak and think in English. Once you get used to that, your mind will be making up your responses and thoughts in English so no 'translation' is required, and speaking it constantly causes you to become comfortable with voicing out your thoughts. That's how I was taught English as a child.
