Have an opinion!  

 

Now, when you get the idea, how do you prepare for this kind of test? 

Well, you need to have an opinion on wide range of different topics.  

 

I include here a list of most common topics for you to think about. 

Just go over them, think of what do you have to say on those issues, think of which 

words you will use. Then record yourself saying a couple of sentences on each of 

those topics and listen to what comes out. Think of what you could have done better. 

This should get you ready for the Discussion part.

o

 

Main industry in your country now, how it will develop in the future
