They often play sport to keep fit Examiner speaking: Do you think that they are practising in the right way? Yes, I Examiner speaking: In what ways is doing gyms good or not good for old people? Doing gym everyday enables older men and women to not only live longer, but also to extend their active involvement in all levels of society Lots of older people use gyms and feel better for it Doing gym is an effective intervention for improving physical functioning in older people, including improving strength and the performance of some simple and complex activities It had a small but significant effect on improving physical ability and on reducing some pain on old people In fact, gym is good but the elder should choose suitable type of exercise to their physical ability Now, let’s talk about healthcare service where you live Examiner speaking: What people in your area usually when they have health problems? People often talk to friends, family, and coworkers to find out the best doctor who can treat them, after that they go to see him/her for checking their health problems as well as asking for recommendations Some others can check with their insurance plan for a list of doctors in the area Then they go to a local hospital, medical center, or nearby medical school Examiner speaking: Do you think that it is good to open private clinics ? In addition to public health care providers such as primary care doctors and hospitals, many private clinics offering specialized services also operate I think that it is good to open private clinics because they typically offer services with reduced wait times compared to the public health care system Moreover, in private hospitals your treatment is usually in a private room which has hotel type services such as TV, menu choices etc., at a time to suit you Examiner speaking: What are the downsides of having too many private clinics? It makes more and more people confused about the private health care choices available to them People tend to compare hospitals relative to infection rates, degrees of surgical success, and many other metrics When we are able to this, hospitals will be driven by quality, service, and cost — all of which will be necessary to compete Therefore, too many private hospitals means that there is an open competitive market We know what happens in this environment There are winners and losers As a result, many clinics with expensive and modern equipment will be closed which wastes a lot of money PART II: Situation: You are planning to take your secondary students to participate in outdoor activities Which you think are the most preferable to them? THREE options of dressing for girls are suggested: - uniforms - selected tops and shorts - skirts I think that selected tops and shorts and skirts are popular costumes that make students more active and dynamic but they are not suitable male students Uniforms may be the best choice because of the following reasons The first reason is that uniforms highly appreciate the community All the rich and the poor are the same There is no difference and unequality between male and female Moreover, when students put on uniforms they feel so proud of their school and have a sense of responsibility to keep their school’s reputation Finally, uniforms make all students look more formal PART III: TOPIC DEVELOPMENT (~ mins) At several universities worldwide, staffs are required to wear university uniforms Wearing uniform does have its advantages One of the main advantages of uniforms is the reality that every staff looks the same so they are easily recognized Staffs who don’t have enough means to buy expensive and fashionable clothes can surely benefit from this They also save quite a bit of money, not having to buy the latest clothing to wear University uniforms are a form of unity in the school, wherein the staff wears the same uniform that gives them the identity This surely gives them the identity from other school and they will look good If they are wearing the uniform that identifies them with a certain university or school, people will able to distinguish them Another advantage of wearing university uniform is the staff can feel proud because of the feeling that they belong to a certain university Just wearing the uniform together with its logo can provide them the best chance to feel proud of their university Wearing uniform is also important for staff to save time changing clothes or outfits because they are trying to figure out the right combination of shirt, pants, blouse or skirt This makes it easy for them to save time because they just need to wear their uniform when going to university Staffs don’t have to compete with their colleagues because everyone wears the same thing In order to “fit in” many people feel pressured to buy expensive clothing In conclusion, for all the advantages above, we should have uniforms for staffs at university SPEAKING TEST 22 Now, the test begins Let’s talk about happiness Examiner speaking: What you think happiness is? C1: It is difficult to define happiness and each person has his own opinion For me, when thinking about happiness, I often remember a saying that “If I was in my perfect place, would someone else there make it better?” Therefore, in my point of view it’s simple that the person who is always with you to share and to love whenever you need makes you happy! C2 : It is difficult to define happiness and each person has his own opinion For me, happiness is that I can whatever I want Examiner speaking: Do you think that rich people are always happy? I don’t think that they are always happy because I think there are more important things than money in our life Love is one of them Although rich men can buy almost all things that they want, they can never purchase a good human relationship based on love In particular, when they became elder people, if they are alone, they must feel miserable In conclusion, I disagree that rich people are always happy Examiner speaking: What you to make yourself happy? Happiness is so interesting and I would love to be happier To make myself happy, I often spend time with my friends and family because I think that we are only happy when we have family and have friends and almost all the other things we think make us happy are actually just ways of getting more family and friends Moreover, for me helping others with a smiling on lips can make us feel better since smiling is one way to reduce the stress caused by an upsetting situation Alright Thank you Now, let’s talk about money Examiner speaking: Do you think money is more important than any other aspects of life? Money is important because it means being able to give your children the best – the best education, the best health care, the best start in life Of course, when it comes to kids, money can also greatly spoil them, so it’s up to wealthy parents to find a way to give their kids the best, while still teaching them the value of money and not giving them so much excess that their view on life is forever skewed Examiner speaking: What would you if you had a lot of money? Examiner speaking: What are the downsides of having too much money?

In our lives, we travel from one place to another for a great variety of reasons and while traveling we greatly depend on cars, whether it is a private car or a public bus The number of car-owners increasing everyday because every person expects the freedom to travel and comfort while traveling And that is why most of us want to own a car However, owning a car has many disadvantages Firstly, owning a car is very expensive The price of the car, the cost of the tax, insurance cost, fuel-cost, driver' salary, car repairing etc all must be considered before buying a car and that is why it is out of reach of the middle class people Not all families can afford it Private car is more expensive than the public transportation, people have to pay more for using of car Moreover, private cars can not carry many passengers at a time yet occupy spaces in the street As the number of car is increasing in the road so does the traffic jams City travellers have to spend longer hours on traffic jams Using more private car, the density of traffic has been increased phenomenally and citizens have had to stay longer time on traffic load Perhaps the major disadvantage of cars in general is the huge damage they to the human health and to the environment More cars mean more pollution The consumption of fuels to run the car is contributing to the rise if global warming and affecting the ozone layer The environment pollution is a serious issue today and in any cost we must reduce the amount of pollution And if we consider it, then owning a car is never a good idea To sum up, having a car gives someone freedom but if public transportation system is easily accessible, safe and efficient, then the idea of buying and owning a car should be abandoned Cars have increased the level of air and noise pollution in cities, causing more humans to suffer from respiratory, heart diseases, or cancers Further questions: The main advantage of owning a car is it gives the freedom to travel If you have a car then you don't need to be limited to fixed routes and timetables Moreover, a car-owner can take his/her family members with him/her and other necessary goods whenever he/she wish which might have been impossible otherwise In addition, personal cars give comfort while traveling on the contrary to the public buses which are so crowded and disgusting You can read books, listen to music or even can play with kids while you are in your own car but those all seems to be impossible in a public transport SPEAKING TEST 23 Let’s talk about restaurants Examiner speaking: Tell me about your favourite restaurant Examiner speaking: What is your opinion of foreign food?

Listening to your favorite song is one of the best ways to relax Sometimes belting out the lyrics to a favorite tune makes everything seem all right and classical music can be especially relaxing right before bedtime Talking to a friend is also a good way to reduce stress When something’s really bothering you, it can help to share your feelings with a pal In fact, more talkative folks tend to be happier in general So people tend to go to a coworker or call a close family member and spill Examiner speaking: Tell me about how you like to relax Examiner speaking: In what ways can you relax without spending any money?

Why? Why not? - What is better motivated for workers? Salary or working condition? Living in the countryside has a lot of advantages As the advantage we can consider the fact that the country is less polluted and the traffic isn't so heavy You are fit and you don't need to worry about your health condition, because in the countryside the air and water are so clean In the country there are many plant species In the country you are free to admire the breathtaking landscapes such as huge meadows, peaceful hills or forests You can enjoy walking in the forest and picking mushrooms or hunting Moreover, living in the countryside is cheaper than it is in the city, so you probably may afford many other things, because the prices are lower What is more, you can invite your friends to the barbecue organized in your garden It would be great! The other positive side is the safety In the rural area the crime rate is much lower There aren't a lot of housebreaks and the possibility of burglary is also lower In the countryside people usually and keep eyes on neighbour's estates They always react when something strange is happening Country life is very peaceful and silent You will enjoy the feeling of peace You also feel closer to nature in the country, you are woken up by the singing of the birds rather than by the noise from the traffic Homes in the countryside are surrounded by nature which has a soothing effect on both the mind and the body In the country, you not have to leave your home to feel closer to nature because here, the nature comes to you and it is quite common to see wildlife such as birds, butterflies, hedgehogs, foxes, rabbits and even deer from your backyard Living in the countryside, you have good neighbours In the country, everyone knows everyone and people actually say ‘hello’ Communities in the country are much smaller but they are more connected and open People in the country are really friendlier and are prepared to help without asking anything in return To sum up, I think that living in the country may have a lot of advantages such as fresh air, breathtaking landscape, comfort and lovely neighbours, but a lot of people decide to stay in the city, due to the fact that the life in the town is easier SPEAKING TEST 24 PART I: SOCIAL INTERACTION (~ mins) Let’s talk about housework Examiner speaking: How you share housework in your family?
