^^ follow up questions (audio to follow)

https://youtu.be/Z-zh_rPNaqU This is a sample of the CPE Speaking Exam. (For me, the candidates are doing OK, only OK. You need to show a little more energy and enthusiasm to really get across your ideas at C2 level.)

Proficiency Book 2.

(CPE Speaking Part 3 - audio to follow) You are given 10 seconds to read the task, and 2 minutes to answer the question. The bullet points should be guides or prompts to help you - it is not necessary to talk about each one but a good idea to do so. I would talk about each one in relation the question and in the last 30 seconds, tie all of your points together and draw a conclusion.

Your partner and/or you are asked follow up questions to that. Audio to follow.

Please try these and I will post the answers with an audio explanation later today. (don't post your answers in the chat until later so everyone has time to do it) Thank you for your interest in English
