Getting Started
Which one shall we start with?
What do you think, Bob?
Bob, I think you know a lot about [topic]. What's your opinion on it?
Moving to the Next Item
Shall we move onto [topic] now?
So what about [topic]?
I wonder if we can compare [current topic] to [new topic]?
What about this one? [pointing to topic]
What do you think about this idea?
How do you feel about that one?
We're running out of time, so let's move on.
We still need to discuss [topic].
Ah, that connects with the next topic.
[Topic] is pretty similar to the last one - maybe we can skip it for now?

Agreeing
Right.
Good point.
I fully agree.
I was just thinking that!
I was just going to say that!
That's just what I was thinking.
I couldn't agree more.
You're totally right.
Disagreeing (with reasons)
Maybe, but what about...?
I think it would be better to...
I'm not so keen on that.
I don't really agree with you.
Weeeeeell maybe, but...
The problem with what you said is...
For one thing...[reason 1] And for another... [reason 2]
Slide 8 - Slide
Reaching a Decision
Well, I think it's definitely not [topic]
We can eliminate [topic] right away. Don't you think?
So then, what do you think is the best one?
I guess you think we should choose [topic]?
Are we both in favour of [topic]?
Okay, so we agree.
I don't think we're going to agree on this!
Let's agree to disagree!

Tips
In part 1, don't talk about what the most important or best thing is. That is normally the question for part 2. If you look at the example question at the top of this page, it says 'Why would these ideas attract more tourists to the town?' Not 'what's the best way to attract more tourists'. It's a very important difference! Always focus on what the question says.
If your speaking partner is talking about the wrong thing, bring them back to the task. Say, 'that's very interesting but we should talk about why more tourists would come'.
Slide 10 - Slide
In your speaking pairs look at page 171 : the word web
Follow the instructions: You have 2 minutes to discuss "How important are these ways in preparing students for working life? "
Now you have 1 minute to decide "Which are the two most useful ways to prepare students for life in the workplace?"
