Now, have a look at the card and prepare a monologue.
Describe a period of time from your studies that was the most difficult for you so far. You should say:
โข When it was
โข Why was it hard
โข What you were doing at that time
I would like to talk about my last school year. It was really diffucult due to enormous amounts of homework I had to do and all the exams I had to prepare for... Em, so I studied hard, having no time to goof around ... Moreover, I forgot a lot of things from the school curriculum, that's why I had to do a lot of revision... But despite the tough preparation, I managed to set aside some time to rest and interact with my friends and family... After all, my efforts were not in vain... I passed all the exams well and was admitted to the university of my dream.

What are some essential qualities every teacher should have?
As for me, every teacher should be able to catch student's attention. It is very important to make your subject interesting to the others... Also, teacher should be a subject specialist and a kind, helpful person..
What are some pros of studying on a distance learning course?
To be honest, I think it's very advantageous to study in such way... It gives you more time flexibility, especially if you have a job... Not to mention that it is fairly cheap, compared to face-to-face classes...
Does everybody get equal opportunities to study?
Definitely not. I think it really depends on a country you live in... Moreover, it depends on your financial capabilities... Some schools and universities are just too expensive... Only a small fraction of people can afford to study there.

Letโs work on the topic Weather.
โค4
Part 1
What's the weather in your country?
The weather in my country is pretty nice. We have a mild climate, so it's never boiling hot in the summer or freezing cold in the winter.
Does the weather affect your mood?
Yes... Cold, gloomy days put me in a bad mood. I love summertime, when it's warm and sunny.
Do you like rainy days?
Yes, absolutely! I like when it rains... I love all the freshness around, the cool breeze after a heavy rain. It's wonderful!
What is your favourite season?
Well, I think it's spring... The weather is very pleasant and it's nice to see everything come back to life and blossom.
Do you like winters?
No, not really... For me winter is the most depressing season, because where I live it's freezing cold in the winter. Moreover, the days are short and you can't do a lot of outdoor activities.

Now, have a look at the card and prepare a monologue.
Describe your favourite weather. You should say:
โข What the weather is like
โข Why do you like it
โข Where you can exprerience such weather conditions.
It may sound strange, but my favourite weather is when it is cloudy, windy and drizzling as it makes me feel calm and relaxed... I like such weather especially at night because I can hear the little raindrops falling and see the dew on the window, and it helps me to sleep... It is very pleasant... Also, I love foggy weather... It's very romantic and gives me a sort of feeling like I'm in an old black and white movie. However, I don't like heavy rains and downpours. And I hate when temperature goes below zero, it's too cold for me. Probably, the type of weather I like is common for the United Kingdom... But in my hometown such type of weather is very rare. Usually, we have dry and sunny days with occasional spells of rainy weather.

Does air pollution affect the weather?
Yes, it does... It affects the overall temperature of the world, making the weather warmer. Also, it often causes smogand gloomy weather.
Do you think that weather affects people's behaviour?
Yes, I think that people respond to bad weather... In my opinion, during cold and dull days people are more depressed and irritated than usual... While bright sunshine and warmth makes us feel good.

These are part 2 cue cards that are currently in use, and most of them will continue to be used in real exams. Although some new cue cards will be added in September, most of the current cue cards will still be in use. This is because they do not usually replace all topics; half of them, at most, are usually replaced with new ones. So, make use of them. If you are lucky, you may be given one of these cue cards.
When new ones are added in September, I will send model answers for them as well.

One historical building Iโve visited is the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, Turkey. Originally built in 537 AD, it was initially a cathedral, later transformed into a mosque, and after serving as a museum for many years, it has been functioning as a mosque again since 2020, symbolizing Istanbulโs diverse cultural heritage.
The Hagia Sophia is renowned for its enormous central dome, which almost seems to float above the structure. The exterior is impressive with its towering minarets and sturdy walls, but the interior is even more striking, with intricate mosaics and Islamic calligraphy that create a unique blend of religious art.
Today, the Hagia Sophia functions as an active mosque, drawing worshippers and visitors alike who are eager to experience its spiritual and architectural significance. It stands as a testament to the city's rich and layered history.
During my visit, I learned about the advanced engineering techniques used in its construction, particularly the innovative methods for supporting the massive dome. This gave me a deeper appreciation for the architectural brilliance of the time and the cultural importance of the Hagia Sophia.

One place Iโve been to where things are quite expensive is Dubai, specifically in the luxury shopping malls like The Dubai Mall. The city is famous for its opulence, and the malls are no exception, offering a range of high-end stores, luxury brands, and extravagant displays. The atmosphere is modern, sleek, and incredibly polished, with every detail designed to reflect wealth and luxury.
Dubai is located in the United Arab Emirates, and itโs known for being a global hub for business, tourism, and shopping. I visited Dubai as part of a holiday, wanting to experience the cityโs unique blend of modernity and tradition. The trip wouldnโt have been complete without a visit to The Dubai Mall, where I could explore the vast array of stores and attractions.
While I was there, I ended up purchasing a designer handbag that I had been eyeing for a while. It was a splurge, but I couldnโt resist given the wide selection and the shopping experience itself. The price tag was steep, but I had expected that.
I believe things are so expensive in Dubai because the city caters to a wealthy clientele, both locals and tourists. The high demand for luxury goods, combined with the cost of importing such items, contributes to the elevated prices. Additionally, Dubaiโs reputation as a luxury destination allows retailers to set higher prices, knowing that many visitors are willing to pay for the exclusivity and prestige that comes with shopping there.
