受験者のパートを自分に置き換えて声に出して練習しよう。
パート1: 自己紹介と日常生活に関する質問(4~5分)
最初に、試験官が簡単な自己紹介をし、あなたに日常生活に関する質問をする。質問内容は、趣味、家族、仕事、学校、住んでいる場所など、日常的なテーマ。
Do you live in a house or an apartment?
I live in an apartment on the 10th floor of a modern building. It’s small but cozy, and it has a great view of the city.
What is your favorite room in your home? Why?
My favorite room is the living room because it’s where I can relax after a long day. I love sitting on the sofa, reading a book, or watching TV.
Is there anything you would like to change about your home?
Yes, I’d like to have a bigger kitchen. I enjoy cooking, but the current space is quite small, and it can feel cramped when I’m trying to prepare meals.
Do you prefer living in a busy city or a quiet place?
I prefer living in a busy city because it’s full of energy and there are always things to do. However, sometimes I miss the peace and quiet of the countryside.
パート2: トピックに関するスピーチ(3~4分)
次に、与えられたトピックについて1~2分間話すセクション。テスト中に1分間の準備時間が与えられ、その間にメモを取ることができる。トピックは個人的な経験や意見に関するもので、例えば「最近行った旅行」や「尊敬する人物」について話すことが求められる。
Describe a trip you would like to take in the future.
Example Answer:
One trip I would love to take in the future is to Japan. I’ve always been fascinated by Japanese culture, food, and history. I would go with my best friend because we both share an interest in exploring new places.
In Japan, I’d visit Tokyo for its modern attractions, Kyoto for its traditional temples, and Hokkaido for its beautiful natural landscapes. I’d also love to try authentic sushi and ramen.
The reason I want to go on this trip is that I’ve always admired Japan’s blend of old traditions and advanced technology. It seems like a place where I could learn a lot while also having an amazing adventure.
パート3: ディスカッション(4~5分)
最後のセクションでは、パート2で話した内容に関連する質問を試験官がしてくる。これは、より抽象的で深い内容のディスカッションを求められるセクション。社会問題や文化に関する質問が多く、意見を述べる能力が試される。
Why do people like to travel to different places?
People enjoy traveling to experience new cultures, try different foods, and meet new people. It’s also a way to relax and escape from their daily routines.
What are the advantages of traveling with a group compared to traveling alone?
Traveling with a group can be more convenient because you have people to share experiences with, and it can also feel safer. However, it might limit your freedom to do what you want.
How has tourism changed in your country in recent years?
In recent years, tourism in my country has grown significantly due to better infrastructure and the promotion of local attractions. Social media has also played a big role in attracting more visitors.
Do you think international tourism is important for cultural exchange? Why or why not?
Yes, international tourism is vital for cultural exchange. It allows people to learn about different ways of life, traditions, and values, which can promote understanding and reduce stereotypes.
