Cambridge PET Speaking Exam Part 2 In this part of the speaking exam, you need to work with your partner to make a decision. You are presented with a situation where you need to discuss a few options and then choose one of them. Here's an example: "A girl is going to spend two weeks living with a family in England to improve her English. She has put the clothes she needs in her bag. Talk together about the other things she will need to take, and say which will be the most important." First of all, think about what each picture represents. Can you think of the right words for each picture? Can you think of a reason why each would be a good idea (or a bad idea)? Can you explain it to your partner? Now, think about some useful language when discussing the decision you have to make. STARTING THE CONVERSATION: Shall I start, or will you? Would you like to start, or shall I? DISCUSSING AN OPTION: I think that ...... would be a good idea ...
The first part of the PET Speaking test is where your examiner will ask you some questions about familiar topics (yourself, past experiences, present studies, where you live and future plans). The first part has some very simple questions: Can I have your mark sheets please? (This is not really a question, it's a request!) What’s your name? How do you spell your name / surname? Where do you live? After those simple questions, they will ask you some questions with longer answers. This is your chance to show them that you can give an extended answer (aim for 3-4 sentences and vary your verb tenses): What can you do in the evenings in your town? Tell me about your last holiday Tell me about your school Do you think English will be useful for your future? What are you planning to do next summer? Can you tell me about your family? Here are some more sample questions. Practice them with a partner Sample Part 1 Questions
