Good morning.

My name is Zanagalan and this is my colleague Kay Welsh.

Good morning.

And your names are?

Teresa .

Teresa.

And Antonio .

Can I have your mark sheets please?

Thank you.

First of all, we'd like to know something about you.

So, Teresa, how long have you been studying English?

I've been studying English since I was a little kid,

and I've been studying for approximately 10 years now.

And Antonio, what do you enjoy most about learning English?

I enjoy that, well, it enables me to have many opportunities and whenever I travel,

for example, to the United States,

I can communicate with people effectively.

Teresa, if you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?

I personally think it would be London.

It's very well connected to the rest of Europe and also to America.

And I actually really like the culture and also the dishes.

They are really good.

And Antonio, what do you like to do in your spare time?

I usually go out and go to the gym

and get some exercise exercise and then I'll listen to music or dance to music as well.

And Teresa, what are your plans for the next few months?

My family and I, we're going to go to France to visit Paris

and also my family that has been there for around five years.

And Antonio, what's your.. no,

do you think you study best when you're in a group?

Well, personally I don't because I think you get distracted because you start talking about other things,

but I think it can also help you to understand like a bit of pressure,

it gives you pressure and understanding to how working with groups is.

In this part of the test,

I'm going to give each of you three pictures

and I'd like you to talk about two of them on your own for about a minute

and also to answer a question briefly about your partner's pictures.

Teresa, it's your turn first.

Here are your pictures.

They show people giving help and encouragement in different situations.

I'd like you to compare two of the pictures

and say what sort of help and encouragement the people are giving in these situations and how useful this might be.

Alright?

So I'm going to choose these two pictures.

And first, in the first picture we can see the boy playing sports

and his family encouraging him to do the best he can.

I think it's useful to have your family while you're doing the sports

and also to enjoy the time with them because now in this day

and age they basically are connected to all sorts of technology and they don't spend quality time together.

And it's just to be able to do the best you can and support them in every way.

On the other hand, in the second picture,

it's most about also doing the best you can in school,

but also doing the work right and explaining them what is wrong and what can be fixed.

and also to encourage them to help them with their future work and how this can affect them.

Thank you.

Antonio, who do you think will benefit most from the help and encouragement?

I think that in the first picture they will get more benefit

because their family is supporting them and I think that's very important

and crucial because it gives you like a boost of energy

and that wants to keep going and you're encouraged to continue doing it just for them.

Thank you.

Now Antonio here are your pictures they show people collecting different things.

I'd like you to compare two of the pictures

and say why you think the people are collecting these things and what satisfaction they might get from doing this.

Alright?

In this picture where they're collecting rubbish from the beach,

I think they're collecting it because nowadays there are many beaches

that have a lot of rubbish and when you go there you don't like how it looks.

It gives them a bad image and you can see how everything is so dirty.

And I think they collected them because they want to help the environment and make it look cleaner.

And so animals have a better environment.

And then in the picture where there's a guy collecting water from what seems to be a waterfall or a river,

I think he's collecting it because he needs,

maybe it's for him to drink it and he needs to keep himself hydrated

and when they get hydrated after a long day of sweating I think it's very satisfying.

Thank you.

And Teresa, who do you think needs to be most careful about collecting?

I personally think the man with the waterfall needs to be really careful

because the water he might be drinking can have negative effects as the water isn't as clean as it used to be.

So he really needs to see what he's drinking and maybe don't take this risk.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Now, I'd like you to talk about something together for about two minutes.

Here are some things that people need to make decisions about and a question for you to discuss.

First, you have some time to look at the task.

Now, talk to each other about how important it is to get advice when making decisions about these things and why.

Well, I think, for example,

working studies is one of the most important as it's something you're going to be doing for a long term

and if you choose it badly you're going to have a lot of bad consequences

and if you're not sure you should go to someone and ask them for them to guide you.

I absolutely agree with you but on the other hand,

fashion and style, it's how you are and how it characterizes you and is your personal own style.

So I don't think they much need advice from this subject.

On the other hand also,

travel and holiday opportunities, you might question their advice if they have gone to the country you are talking about,

so you have an idea how it's like and how to manage your expenses.

I think you're right, but for example,

talking about travel and holiday opportunities also is connected with money matters.

As if you're gonna make an investment,

100

for example, I think it's something you need to be really sure of doing

101

because you can not just go blindly towards it and being guided

102

and having someone to tell you what's the best thing and what's safer,

103

it also really helps.

104

Yeah, managing your expenses.

105

The school doesn't actually prepare you to that type of words and how you're going to divide it.

106

So I think they could really use some advice there.

107

So I would actually agree with you on the work and study and money matters,

108

but the free time activities and hobbies are absolutely crucial

109

when you got out of school you have to do something get your minds blown away by the activity

110

or just enjoy doing something for once.

111

Thank you.

112

Now you have about a minute to decide which of these things it is most important to think about carefully.

113

Well I personally think that money matters is one of the most important as it's something

114

that you're really gonna need throughout your life and you need to know

115

but it's better if people help you to choose correctly

116

and the other options are also pretty good

117

but money matters stands up here yeah I absolutely agree with you as I said the school doesn't prepare you

118

but also you have to be careful about the advice you take

119

because sometimes it It can go into the negative effects of the money matters

120

and also be able to manage correctly and to actually know what you're doing is the most important part.

121

Yes, I agree.

122

Thank you.

123

Go.

124

Now, some people say that we learn a lot from the mistakes we make.

125

What do you think?

126

Well, I think that that is true because if you've done something badly before,

127

it enables you the opportunity to do it better the next time

128

and it has given you a lot of insight on knowing what the positive or negative things about it are.

129

Yeah, because human beings always make errors and it's fine,

130

but if it would be even great

131

if you actually never committed again and learn from your actions

132

and actually be able to put them on practice on your everyday life.

133

And do you think it is possible to teach people to make the right decisions about things?

134

I personally think people on how they are and actually their personality

135

make different decisions based on how they really give an insight to the subject, you know.

136

I agree.

137

I also think that there's always someone,

138

like you have your own opinion,

139

but I think there's someone always who like points you to look at one way,

140

and maybe you'll get the same opinion from him.

141

Yes, so the same direction.

142

Yes.

143

Many parents find it difficult to let their children become independent.

144

What's your opinion?

145

Well, I think that many parents find it difficult because if you've been with your child your whole life,

146

you feel that letting them go is going to be

147

so hard for them because they've always been used to being with you

148

and not being with you makes them be crazy because it's like their normal day.

149

Yes, and I also think that the world is actually cruel, it's very cruel.

150

So they are not rather sad that they are living,

151

but they try to find a way for them to not make the mistakes they made

152

and actually know what it's like, you know?

153

And some people say it's getting harder and harder to find time to do everything they want.

154

What do you think?

155

Well, I personally think it's about management of time.

156

Because nowadays people always, basically,

157

hours they take on their computers.

158

And it's about management of time,

159

not about not having the time to do something.

160

Yeah, I think it's also about management because I think if everyone organized themselves correctly,

161

they would have the time to do everything they wanted.

162

And maybe there's one day that they don't have time,

163

but that just also happens in life a lot of times.

164

Yeah, the organization is crucial.

165

And some people think it's important to have control over everything in their lives.

166

What's your opinion?

167

I think that people who like to have control about everything are specifically the people who have never actually had control.

168

And just because of that,

169

they feel like they need to be in control of everything because

170

maybe they've had no opinion over the past years

171

because someone spoke out for them and And maybe they feel the need to be so control,

172

controlative of everyone else.

173

Yes, and also I think it makes them anxious not being able to control everything.

174

I think that they just have to go with the flow and let time pass by.

175

Thank you.

176

That is the end of the test.

177

Thank you.

178

Thank you.
