1. Part One of the Speaking Test
Part One of the speaking test lasts for 4~5 minutes. Many people wrongfully call Part One the ―self-introduction‖ part of the test. This is an inaccurate description because although this section does ask some questions about your personal background, it also covers many other questions and topics. A more accurate description of Part One would be: ―Basic questions on familiar topics including your background, hobbies, interests, routines, lifestyle and habits.‖ The examiner will select three topics in Part One. The range of Part One topics is quite extensive. (See the section on Part One skills.) In general the first topic in Part One deals with your background and there are two possible paths. [A] Where you live (you city, area where you live, street, house) [B] Your studies, work, job As a rule, the examiner will select either path A or B but NOT both. All candidates can expect to be asked questions on one of these topics areas. After this first ―personal‖ topic, the examiner will select two more topics based on hobbies, interests, routines, lifestyle and habits. The number of questions asked in Part One varies for each candidate. The maximum number of questions for each topic is usually four or five and the minimum is two. This means that the maximum number of questions in Part One is between twelve and fifteen and the minimum is around six. Mat Clark – IELTS Speaking 26 The number of questions asked in Part One depends on the length of time the candidate spends speaking. A candidate who produces long responses will be ask fewer question because Part One is limited to four or five minutes. A candidate give short answers will be asked more questions. Candidates often ask the question: ―Is it better to give long or short answers in Part One?‖ The answer to this question is quite simple. If you have read the earlier chapter on the marking system you should know that longer responses result in a higher score, to obviously in all parts of the speaking test longer answers are preferable to short answers.
