Во второй части устного экзамена PET проверяются Ваши коммуникативные навыки, поэтому, на мой взгляд, она является самой сложной из четырех: Вы работаете в паре, должны использовать правильную лексику и Вам с собеседником нужно придти к единому мнению.

PET SPEAKING PART 2

TIPS

• You should talk to your partner, but make sure you speak clearly so that the examiner can also hear you.

• Talk about all the ideas in the task, and suggest others if you can.

• Remember to talk about the things in the picture - don't just talk generally.

• Make sure you show interest in what your partner is saying. Try to respond to what they say.

• You will need to keep this discussion going for two to three minutes.

• If you have time, try to summarise the reasons for your final choice in the end.

• Remember to look at your partner when you are speaking - not the interlocutor.

Here is a picture with some ideas to help you.

I'll say that again.

Before you start, think of some things:

• What about the swimming things?
• What will the weather be like?
• Will you need the jacket?
• Is it safe to wear headphones while you are cycling?

Now listen to two students doing the task.
