الوسم: IELTS

Pronunciation – This is only important if it gets in the way of communication. Speak clearly and you will be all right.

Vocabulary – Some students try to improve their speaking score by using difficult words. However, using words incorrectly will LOWER your score! Avoid using difficult words or expressions unless you are sure of how to use them.

Sentence Structure – Using better sentences is the best way to improve your speaking score in a short time, because using better sentences is how we COMMUNICATE.

Fluency and Coherence – Of course fluency is very important but it is useless if you are not understood (if you are not "coherent"). You do NOT have to speak quickly, but too many hesitations are bad.

Can we talk about an aspect of your home town? How easy is it to travel around where you’re from

Ah, yes. I’m from Mitchford. The most beautiful place on earth! It’s quite a small coastal city. There’s about 230,000 people who live there and we have quite a good transportation system there. I’d say most people travel by car – our roads are pretty modern and well sealed but people who don’t have a car usually catch a bus. The bus travels to most parts of the city and it’s quite cheap. For example, to travel by bus from one end of the city to the other it costs about £2 and that’s pretty cheap compared to what I pay here in England.

Ok. Which kinds of public transport do you use most and why?

Actually, that’s a difficult question to answer because back home, I have my own car…I sure do miss that. When I was younger I used to catch the bus to school. In my city all students under 16 who lived more than four…maybe it was 3….anyway about 3 or 4 kilometres from the nearest public high school were given a bus pass which allowed them to catch the bus to school for free. The problem was there was never enough seats to allow for all the students so usually most students had to stand up in the bus all the way until they arrived at school…but it was much better than having to walk I can assure you of that! Occasionally, I caught the taxi but it was a very rare thing…taxis are about 4 or 5 times more expensive than regular bus fares so taxis were only used if there was no other option.

But what about here? Do you use public transport here in England?
Oh yes, here I mostly use the underground. It’s totally different from back home. At Mitchford we don’t have enough people to warrant an underground rail system…at least I think that’s the reason we don’t have one. That’s been a really interesting part about living here, getting used to the rail system.

[COLOR="Blue"]How do you compare public transport here in England with public transport back home?[/COLOR

Well, actually, back home public transport is always late. It’s not unusual for the bus to be…like 15-20 minutes late. We have a saying, “If you want to arrive on time and you’re catching the bus, prepare for one hour of travel”. Well, here the underground is always on time. It’s been interesting in that it’s always on time and extremely reliable.

Ok, good. I’m now going to give you a topic that you will need to speak about for 1-2 minutes. You can take notes if you want. You have 1 minute to prepare what you want to say. I want you to talk about the best holiday you have ever had.
Ok. You have a maximum of 2 minutes to speak so if you go over 2 minutes, I will ask you to stop. Can you please begin speaking now
