In the exam, as well as talking about your own opinions and experiences, remember to ask your partner for their own thoughts. Some of the following words and expressions may be useful in this practice test:

party, celebration, birthday, treats, presents, wedding, party games, guests, school friends, relations, party bags, cake

http://www.flo-joe.co.uk/preliminaryenglish/speaking/pet_speaking_practice_test_part_3.htm

Part 3 of the PET Speaking exam lasts about 3 minutes. The examiner will give you a colour photograph and ask you to talk about it on your own for about 1 minute. Try a Part 3 practice test below.

Get Ready!

Get Ready

Try to make your talk easy to understand and follow. Use phrases like 'On the left ...', 'On the right ...', 'In the middle ...', 'In the background' to describe where things are.

The following vocabulary might be useful in this practice test:
party, celebration, birthday, treats, grandparents, grandchildren, grandson, granddaughter
parents, children, sit around the table, enjoy a meal, salad, bowls of food.

Study Tip!

An easy way to prepare for Part 3 is to talk to yourself! Whenever you are alone think of something you could talk about, for example, your plans for the weekend, what you would like to have for dinner what you did yesterday. Then try talking about this for a minute or two. Concentrate on speaking without long pauses - don't worry too much about making mistakes!

PART 2: ROLE PLAY

PET Speaking Part 2 Practice Test

http://www.flo-joe.co.uk/preliminaryenglish/speaking/pet_speaking_practice_test_part_2.htm

Speaking Part 2

Part 2 of the PET Speaking exam lasts about 2-3 minutes. The examiner will describe a situation to you and your partner and give you both some visuals. You will have to share your opinions with your partner about the task and try to make a decision. Try a Part 2 practice test below.

Get Ready!

During the discussion in the exam you will need to show you can offer an opinion (I think ...), ask your partner for his/her opinion (Do you think ... Do you agree that ...) and make suggestions (Why don't we ... What about ...).

Some of these words might be useful in this practice test:
flask, hot drink, walking boots, sore feet, umbrella, phone, get in trouble
first aid kit, plasters, compass, get lost.

Study Tip!

The examiner is not interested in how good your ideas are. He or she will be listening to see how well you you can discuss things with your partner.

When you practice discussions try to show you are interested in what your partner has to say. Use expressions like this:

That's a good idea.
That's true.
Do you think so?

PART 1: INTERVIEW

PET Speaking Part 1 Practice Test

Speaking Part 1

Part 1 of the PET Speaking exam lasts about 2-3 minutes. During Part 1 the examiner will ask you some easy questions to find out more about you such as about your studies, where you live or what hobbies or interests you have. You do not have to give long answers to these questions. However, you should try to say more than short one or two word answers. Try a Part 1 practice test below.

Get Ready!

In the example questions below you will need to use present and past tenses when you answer the questions.

Some of these words might be useful.
village, town, city, in the countryside, house, apartment
study, learn, full-time, part-time, self-study, evening classes, private lessons,
hobbies, relax, go shopping, play tennis/football ...

Sample PET Speaking Part 1 questions

What's your name?
Where do you live?
How long have you lived there?
And what do you do?
Do you study English at a school?
Do you like studing English?
What do you do in your free time?

Study Tip!

Your answers to the Part 1 questions do not have to be very long but it will help the examiner assess your English if you say more than just one or two words. Be careful of questions that start 'Do you ...', 'Are you ...', 'Have you ...' as these can easily be answered with a simple 'Yes' or a 'No'.

Work with a partner.. Ask each other 'Yes' 'No questions and practise extending your answer a little with a reason, or an example. Like this:

Q: Do you like studying English?
A: Yes ... it's very exciting learning how to speak in another language.

VIDEO 1: HAVE SOMETHING DONE

GRAMMAR INDIRECT QUESTIONS

Word order

When we create indirect questions, the question (What time is it?) becomes part of a longer sentence or questions (Do you know.?) and the word order changes from the order of a direct question. For example: Direct: What time is it? Indirect: Do you know what time it is? Direct: Why was he late? Indirect: Can you tell me why he was late? Direct: What is that? Indirect: Would you mind telling me what that is?

Using 'do'

When there is no auxiliary verb (be, do have, can, will etc) in a sentence, we need to put in do, does or did when we create a direct question. When we make this into an indirect question however, we don't use the verb 'do'. For example:

Direct: When does the lesson end?
Indirect: Could you tell me when the lesson ends?

Direct: What car does she drive?
Indirect: Can you tell me what car she drives?

Direct: How did you make that cake?
Indirect: Would you mind telling me how you made that cake?

Using 'if' or 'whether':

If there is no question word (who, what, when, why, how) in a direct question, we need to use if or whether in the indirect question. For example: Direct: Did she make it on time? Indirect: Can you tell me if she made it on time? or Can you tell me whether she made it on time? Direct: Is this the right bus for Oxford Street? Indirect: Do you have any idea if this is the right bus for Oxford Street? Direct: Is she French? Indirect: Do you know whether she is French (or not)?
