FCE Speaking Part 1

2 minutes

Part 1 gives candidates the opportunity to show their ability to use general social and interactional

language and to give basic personal information about themselves. The questions asked relate to the

candidates’ own lives and focus on areas such as work, leisure time and future plans.

Candidates are expected to respond to the interlocutor’s questions, and to listen to what their partner has

to say.

The candidates are not actively invited to talk to each other in this part of the test.

Are you interested

in sport?

Yes, I am

interested in sport.

The candidate has just repeated the same words that were used in the question.

He/she should try to paraphrase, e.g. interested in = keen on, love, really like, etc. The candidate should

expand upon their answer, making more informative, interesting, etc – this also gives them the

opportunity to demonstrate a wider range of grammar and vocabulary.

Answer these questions

1. Do you like going to the cinema?

I love it, I usually go on Saturdays with my friends. Last week we

saw a really scary movie called The Ring. Not, really I prefer watching films at home because it’s

more comfortable – you can stop the film when you want, you can talk and also it’s cheaper.

2. What’s the most interesting place you’ve visited?

Last year I went to Rome on a school holiday, we

spent two days sightseeing and taking hundreds of photos. I found it fascinating seeing all those

old buildings that the Romans had built – you could almost imagine you were living there

thousands of years ago.
