Part 3 (3 minutes)
Interlocutor Now, I'd like you to talk about something together for about three minutes.
I'm just going to listen.
The film club at your school has asked you to choose two films which
would be interesting for the students to watch and then discuss. Here
are the films they are considering.
[Place picture sheet 30 in front of the candidates.]
First, talk to each other about how interesting these different types of
film would be. Then decide which two would be the best for students
to discuss.
You have only about three minutes for this. So, once again, don't worry if I
stop you, and please speak so that we can hear you. All right?

How we assess your
speaking for FCE
The assessor (that is the examiner who is listening to
you) is looking for four different things:
Grammar and vocabulary
The assessor will listen to how accurate your grammar
is and will check that you have enough vocabulary to
explain clearly what you want to say.
Discourse management
Here the assessor wants to see that you can develop
your ideas. You need to show that you can give more
than just very short answers. You have a good
opportunity to develop your ideas in Part 2 of the test.
Pronunciation
The assessor will listen to how clear your
pronunciation is. This doesn’t mean that you are
expected to have a perfect English accent, but it does
mean that the assessor shouldn’t have to work hard to
understand what you are trying to say.
Interactive communication
The assessor wants you to show that you are able to
begin a conversation and also that you are able to listen
to what your partner says and respond in an
appropriate way. You may agree or disagree with your
partner, or ask your partner questions. The assessor
will check that you don’t hesitate too much, and that
you are able to take turns with your partner, speaking
when it’s your turn but also allowing your partner to
speak. The interlocutor (that is the examiner who talks
to you) also gives a global mark.
