· Like for instance...
· More precisely like...
· Like more specifically...
· Like, to be more direct...
· You know like, to be exact...
Notice that all of these linking phrases include the word "like". In these structures "like" is a conjunction used as a meaningless filler word. This is very typical of informal native-speaker English.
It is important to get the next step exactly right. The success of this structure relies on the following conditional grammar structure:
Select one of the following:
· If (situation A)... then I will most likely...
· If (situation A)... then it's quite possible than I will...
· If (situation A)... then as a consequence I will probably...
· If (situation A)... then I guess it’s quite likely that I will
Your answer is going to compare two different situations or conditions. These can be quite flexible. Here are some possible ideas to use:
Situation A Situation B
Weekdays Weekends
Summer Winter
Good weather Bad weather
Term time School holidays
If I’m alone... If I’m with friends
If I’ve got a lot of time… If I'm fairly busy…
So the opening sentence might be:
"Well in all fairness, I imagine that it would depend on the situation. Like for instance, if (situation A)... then I will most likely... so / because / in fact..."
Answer the following question, introducing one situation. (Develop the situation using a complex structure.)
"How much time do you spend listening to music?"
(If possible try to avoid repeating the question vocabulary "listening to music".) Now you can compare situation A with situation B. Add a compare linking phrase:
