Part 2 １分間スピーチ
写真をつけたい３枚見せられる（何をしているところかは示される）。共通のテーマを答え、写真２枚を選ぶ（I'd like to talk about this picture and this one.）。試験官が関連する質問を２つする（質問は紙でも渡される）。描写というより、共通点と相違点という比較を話す。１分話したところで試験官は「止め」と言う。次に、自分にも関連する質問がなされる。３０秒でそれに答える。それから、パートナーのターン。同様のことをおこなう。全体で（２人で）４分程度が予定されている。
My initial impression is that she doesn't seem too nervous, I mean, she's sitting down, not pacing round the room like I do when I'm worried about something. She seems lost in thought. I suppose she's waiting for her phone to ring, probably with news from someone. Perhaps it's a business call, something about a job offer, maybe. But then again, it looks like she's at home, so I reckon it's something more personal. She appears quite young, and I can't make out a ring or anything on her wedding finger, so maybe she's waiting to hear from a new boyfriend.(102)

２枚を関連づけて論じた優良答案
The first picture shows a girl and a woman in a garden, whereas in the second one, there's just a man on his own. It certainly looks like the woman is listening carefully to what the gail's saying and pointing at, but I wouldn't say this is vital information. THey are probably just discussing the plants and which ones need watching. I suppose if the woman didn't listen carefully, the plants might not do well, particularly if the girl is telling her about some special attention they need.
On the other hand, the information in the second picture is pretty important. It looks to me as if the man is standing on a station platform and giving an announcement, probably something about the time table or a platform change. Announcements like these are often very difficult to hear, particularly in noisy, crowded stations - although this one appears deserted - so it's essential to listen carefully. Missing the announcement, or not hearing it correctly, could mean you end up missing your train.(170)

Part３ ディスカッション
試験官からダイアグラムが渡されるので１５秒間見分する。紙に書かれている質問に対し、５つの視点のうちいくつか選んでパートナーに向き直って２分間話す。相手を見て話す。次いで、また別のお題が出されてまた話し合う。今度のは紙に書かれておらず、なおかつ、結論を出さなくてはならない。必ずしもベストを選べという内容とは限らないことに注意。これは１分間。１分間より早く話し終えてしまったら、リピートしたりサマライズしたりして保たせる。ふたりの意見は割れてもいい。いっそ結論に至らなくてもいい。計４分。
理由を述べる表現をつかう
That's a good point./ I'm not sure about that because / Yes, that's interesting.

Part４
前のパートのお題を広げた内容の質問を試験官が１〜２問する（紙では渡されない）。自分の意見を述べることになるのか、パートナーとディスカッションするのかは指定される。相手の発言に対し、agree か disagree を伝える。相手にコメントすることもあるし、同じ質問に答えることもある（よく聞いておく）。２人で５分。
Agree
I couldn't agree more.
I agree with you 100 %.
That's exactly how I feel.
Absolutely!
That's so true.
You have a point there.
I see what you mean,
I hadn't thought of that.
Of course, that goes without saying.
I see where you're coming from on that point.
Yes, I'd go a long with that idea.
Disagree
I think that's a bit extreme. Wouldn't it be better to educate them to make the right choices?
I take your point, but there has to be some choice, don't you think?
I beg to differ.
Not necessarily.
I'm not so sure about that. Won't that just make them more popular outside school?
I'd say the exact oposite, actually.
That is not always the case.
Do you think so? I'd say..
I sort of agree with you, but only partially.
I agree with you up to a point, but..
I must take issue with you on that.
I take your point, but I'm not sure I agree.

一緒に組んだ女の子が２週間前にイギリス留学から帰ったばかりという女の子だった。発音は流麗だったが、１回に話す文の数が少なく、発想も広がらなかった。受験するパートナーも重要でなくもないと感じた。
