Speaking
It's only 15 minutes long, but for many students, the CAE Speaking Test is the most stressful part of Cambridge English: Advanced. 

A lot of students don't know what to expect, they don't feel confident in their English, and they don't know how to prepare.

Today we will watch a video of a complete CAE speaking part.

Slide 10 - Open question

In part two of the Cambridge English: Advanced Speaking test, you are given a piece of paper with 3 photos on. The photos are almost always about people.
You have to talk about 2 of the pictures, on your own, for a minute. Then the examiner will ask the other candidate a question about your pictures. Next, the other candidate will have to talk for a minute about some different pictures, and you will be asked a question about those pictures. The technique for answering this follow-up question is the same as Speaking Test Part One - respond in about 3 sentences and try to show off your vocabulary.

Slide 13 - Open question

In part 3 you and your speaking test partner are given a 'mind-map' (or 'spider web') with five keywords linking to a theme. The themes are often universally interesting ones such as 'health' or 'the environment'. If the topic is 'health', the keywords will be things like 'diet', 'exercise', 'sleep', and so on. Have you ever had a conversation about the food you eat or how well you slept? Of course you have. In part 3, that's what you do. (The theme in this picture is communication.)
It's often called the 'collaborative task' because for the first time in the CAE Speaking test, you have to work as a team.
You discuss the first question for two minutes, and then there's another question you talk about for one minute.

Slide 16 - Open question

Part 4 takes the topic from part 3 and extends it. While CAE Speaking test part 3 is quite structured, you have more freedom in part 4. You can answer questions in a more natural way, like you would in everyday conversation. However, there are some strategies to keep in mind, and the questions can be quite challenging.
Do you think the students are C1 level?
A
Yes, both are.
B
No, neither are.
C
Only the boy is.
D
Only the girl is.
