First, I think that you can replace the curtains.

These will make you feel happier and make the room brighter.

58
Feel free to answer the question by yourself before I show you the example.
59
When I was 24 years old,
60
I went to visit my friend in Iceland.
61
He had been studying at the University of Iceland for two years when I decided to go and visit.
62
Since he was graduating, we went on a celebratory trip around the island.
63
In Iceland, there is a road which circles all the way around the island.
64
It is called Ring Road.
65
We rented a car and some tents and made our way around the coast,
66
stopping each night at a new campsite.
67
It was a memorable experience because we saw many beautiful natural landscapes and enjoyed relaxing evenings under the stars.
68
It was an adventure of a lifetime.
69
This is why it is a memorable experience for me.
70
Task 3.
71
Describing a scene.
72
Here's the scene.
73
Some tips.
74
General information.
75
Where is it?
76
What do you see?
77
In the body, be more specific.
78
What kind of food is there?
79
What is in the background?
80
How is the weather?
81
Summarize your observations in different words in the conclusion.
82
Now you should spend some time looking at the picture and try to describe it by yourself first.
83
So pause the video now.
84
Okay, I'm going to show you my answer,
85
so try to remember what you can see.
86
I can see seven people having a picnic in the park.
87
It is a charming scene.
88
It appears to be a group of close friends,
89
and they appear to be enjoying themselves.
90
Five of the people are sitting on a blanket around a selection of foods.
91
One of them is standing up,
92
and one man is bending over and whispering something into one of the girl's ears.
93
Due to the fact that she is clearly laughing,
94
we can reasonably assume that the man is telling her a funny joke.
95
As for the food, it is not entirely clear to see.
96
However, since it is a picnic,
97
I can infer that there are some sandwiches,
98
cheese, vegetables, and I can clearly see some bottles of water.
99
In the background of the scene,
100
I can see grass on the rolling hills,
101
a couple of trees, and some beautiful Christmas lights hanging from the tree branches.
102
It is a remarkable image,
103
and it makes me eager to go on a picnic.
104
Task 4, Making Predictions Look at the picture and tell me what will happen next.
105
Here are some tips.
106
Begin by giving a brief description of the image.
107
Try to make about three predictions as to what will happen next
108
and give reasons for why you think those things will happen.
109
And summarize by making a concluding comment or adding a new and intriguing bit of analysis.
110
Same as last time.
111
some time looking at the picture and try to describe it by yourself.
112
Pause the video.
113
And I'm back.
114
If you are ready, I'll show you my answer.
115
The picture appears to show a family of three on Christmas morning.
116
The mother, father, and son are all sitting on a white couch wearing matching pajamas and Santa hats.
117
I predict that the boy will soon be happily opening the green present on his lap.
118
After that, the parents will probably open presents as well.
119
I can see a green present beside the mother's left arm.
120
Since it is Christmas morning,
121
we can safely assume that the family will have a delicious breakfast.
122
Usually, people have cinnamon buns or some other festive dish on Christmas morning.
123
You can also predict that they will visit their extended family sometime in the afternoon.
124
People often get together with their aunts,
125
uncles, and grandparents on Christmas day.
126
I think this picture shows a classic festive scene and I predict that this family will have a wonderful day.
127
Task five, comparing and persuading.
128
Here's the situation.
129
There is a lot of noise outside your company's office building and you have three options.
130
You can have your employees wear earplugs,
131
You can build a brick wall to stop the noise,
132
or you can plant a hedge.
133
A hedge is kind of like a tree or a bush,
134
and it will block the noise.
135
So which is the best option?
136
Tips.
137
Think about what you would do in real life.
138
Think about the pros and cons of each option.
139
Make a decision based on your opinion of the value of the pros and cons.
140
Speak clearly and succinctly.
141
I chose the hedge.
142
I think that the best option is to plant a hedge.
143
I have a few reasons for this opinion.
144
Overall, planting a hedge will be better than using earplugs.
145
My first reason is that planting a hedge is good for the environment.
146
We all know that our environment is suffering.
147
So if everyone plants something green on their property, the environment will improve.
148
The second reason is that the hedge is green and beautiful.
149
When people walk by your company,
150
they will be impressed by the view.
151
This may increase the value of your property.
152
The earplugs may be a good short-term option.
153
They are cheap and effective.
154
but you do not want to use earplugs forever.
155
The hedge will take five years to grow.
156
If you plant the hedge now,
157
you will be happy in five years.
158
My conclusion is that you can use earplugs temporarily,
159
but that planting the hedge is the best long-term solution.
160
Task 6.
161
Dealing with difficult situations.
162
Here's the situation, folks.
163
your boss hired a new employee,
164
John, and asked you and your co-workers,
165
Callie and Liz, to train him.
166
After one month, John keeps making mistakes and is not listening to your feedback.
167
Callie thinks that you should explain to your boss why John should be fired.
168
Liz thinks that you should try talking to John again and tell him why he needs to do better.
169
What would you do?
170
Would you listen to Callie or would you listen to Liz?
171
Tips.
172
Ask yourself, has this situation ever happened to you?
173
Try to figure out your own values and your ethics.
174
What is right and what is wrong in your mind.
175
Use two or three arguments.
176
So, everyone deserves a second chance.
177
So, I will talk to...
178
Everyone deserves a second chance.
179
So, I will talk to Callie about talking to John one more time.
180
I think that we can help John by teaching him what is right and wrong and pointing out his mistakes.
181
I like John because he is young and doesn't have enough work experience,
182
but he is kind and smart.
183
If we teach John, he will improve his situation.
184
Firing someone is bad because it shows that we did not do our best to help them.
185
Helping people is better than firing them.
186
For these reasons, I think we should talk to John one more time.
187
Task 7.
188
Expressing opinions.
189
Here's the question.
190
Do you think that young adults should pay rent to their parents
191
if they do not move out by the age of 21?
192
Explain your reasons.
193
What is your opinion?
194
And remember, whichever side you pick,
195
you have to have two or three solid arguments,
196
what we call rock-solid arguments.
197
And describe each argument in the body paragraph.
198
You can make a definitive conclusion.
199
So what do you think?
200
Do you think young adults should pay rent to their parents if they do not move out by the age of 21?
201
Well, in my opinion, I think that young adults should pay rent to their parents
202
if they do not move out by the age of 21.
203
I have three reasons for this.
204
Firstly, young adults at the age of 21 usually have a job.
205
They can use the money they earn from this job to pay rent to their parents.
206
The second reason is that young adults must learn responsibility.
207
They should understand that adults need to pay rent.
208
This can make them more mature and independent.
209
The third reason is that it is good for society.
210
If young adults become mature and responsible,
211
they will be able to do good things for society in the future.
212
They will think independently and be disciplined.
213
In conclusion, I think that young adults should pay rent to their parents
214
if they do not move out by the age of 21.
215
Because they have jobs, it teaches them to be responsible,
216
and it is good for society.
217
Task 8.
218
Describing an Unusual Situation You are at an art gallery and see an unusual painting.
219
You call your friend to describe it.
220
This is the painting.
221
It's quite unusual, isn't it?
222
Focus on concrete items which you can describe in simple terms.
223
Try to avoid abstract and confusing language.
224
Don't worry about being profound.
225
Just say something simple and clear.
226
Here's my answer.
227
Hello, Paula.
228
I'm at the art gallery now.
229
I can see an unusual picture and I want to tell you about it.
230
At first glance, it seems to portray an ordinary living room.
231
When I looked closer, however,
232
I can see that everything is odd.
233
The sofa is propped up against the wall so that it is diagonal.
234
The plant is upside down.
235
It is in a pot resting on the ceiling.
236
Some of the paintings on the wall are not straight.
237
They are slightly off-center.
238
This image makes me think of the effect of disrupting normalcy.
239
When we see a living room,
240
we expect everything to be normal.
241
When a few things are abnormal,
242
the resulting image is quite jarring.
243
What do you think about this painting?
244
I will send you a photo.
245
So there you have it, folks.
246
Those are the eight tasks for CELPIP.
247
and those were my example answers.
248
I encourage you to go through the slides once more and answer each task on your own.
249
Good luck studying.
250
I'm sure you're going to do great on your exam.
251
If you have any questions, leave a comment.
252

Why practice speaking with this video?
Practicing speaking using resources like this YouTube video can significantly enhance your English language skills. The CELPIP Speaking Test is structured to evaluate how well you can express your thoughts in a clear and coherent manner across various tasks. By engaging with the video, you have the opportunity to hear native speakers demonstrate effective responses, which can be a valuable part of your journey to learn English with YouTube.
The video highlights eight essential tasks, focusing on real-life situations, which can help you become more comfortable speaking in diverse contexts. Each task encourages you to think critically and respond thoughtfully, aiding in developing fluency. Additionally, practicing speaking along with the video helps you gain confidence and refine your pronunciation, ensuring you are well-prepared for the CELPIP test.
Grammar & Expressions in Context
Understanding key grammatical structures and expressions in context can improve your speaking skills. Here are some vital structures used in the video:
- Conditional Structures: Phrases like "If you take my advice" demonstrate how to propose hypothetical situations. This structure is essential for providing advice or suggesting possibilities.
- Descriptive Language: Using adjectives and adverbs, as in "make you feel happier," adds depth to your responses. This not only enhances your vocabulary but also helps engage your listener.
- Expressing Preferences: By saying, "I think that you can change," you practice expressing opinions clearly and confidently, which is crucial in opinion-prompting tasks.
- Sequencing Ideas: Starting with prompts like "first," "next," and "finally," helps organize your thoughts logically. This structuring is vital in tasks that require comparisons or multi-part answers.
Common Pronunciation Traps
While the content is incredibly rich, be cautious of some tricky words and pronunciations that may pose challenges:
- Rearrange: This word may tempt learners to emphasize the “-r” sound incorrectly. Pay attention to the smooth flow of syllables.
- Comfortable: Ensure you don’t over-emphasize the middle syllable. Practicing this word will make it easier to say quickly during the test.
- Advice: The final “-ce” endings can be tricky; focus on producing a clear sound without adding extra vowels.
Incorporating shadow speech techniques while practicing speaking can allow you to mimic these pronunciations accurately and help you refine your speaking style. Engaging repeatedly with the video will strengthen your fluency. So, take the leap, and start practicing with this shadowspeak method.
Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
