You will listen to candidates Ann
Marie and Stelle talking about the same question
during a section of the CPE Speaking Test. We did
not publish the audio transcriptions as – at this
stage of the course – you should be able to
understand what the students are being asked and
what they are commenting.
Each candidate has to talk for some minutes and he/she
can use the ideas listed in his/her prompt card.
Also each candidate can say if he/she agrees/disagrees
with the other candidate, or if there is anything
he/she would like to add.
And now listen carefully while you check below the
prompt cards given to both candidates.
