Posted on FoodieHub by J. Alvarez, 3 days ago: "Had dinner at Bistro Laurel last night. The service was slow - we waited almost 25 minutes just to order - but once the food arrived, it was excellent. The grilled salmon was perfectly cooked. I'd go back, but only if I have plenty of time." Reply from Bistro Laurel (Owner): "Thank you for the honest feedback, J. Alvarez. We're glad you enjoyed the salmon, and we're sorry about the wait - we were short-staffed that evening due to two last-minute call-outs. We've since hired two additional servers for weekend shifts. We hope you'll give us another try soon."

Show sample answer
Model answer: An internal notice should sound clear and businesslike. Stress the time period 'midnight and four' and the verbs 'send or receive'. Pause between 'Saturday' and 'between', and again before 'Please save'. Pronounce 'technical' carefully, with the stress on the first syllable, and end with a steady, falling tone.

Recorded on your device only — play it back and compare with the model answer.
Show sample answer
Model answer: This is a bag with a strap. It may be in a fashion store, on display near the entrance, where it attracts customers who want something practical for work. It looks big enough for a notebook and a bottle of water. I like the design because it's simple and doesn't look too expensive. It seems like a sensible purchase.

Express an Opinion

Give your opinion and support it with reasons.

Some people believe public speaking should be a required subject in schools, while others think it is unnecessary. What is your opinion?
Recorded on your device only — play it back and compare with the model answer.
Show sample answer
Model answer: I firmly believe public speaking should be taught as a required subject in schools, because confident communication benefits students in almost every career and life situation. Many adults report that fear of speaking in front of others limits their opportunities at work, and this fear could be reduced through early, regular practice. Some argue the school curriculum is already full and cannot fit another subject, which is a reasonable concern. Even so, I think public speaking could be woven into existing subjects like language arts, giving students valuable practice without needing an entirely separate class.

Write an Opinion Essay

Write an essay giving your opinion with reasons and examples.

Some people believe university education should be free for everyone, while others believe students should pay tuition fees. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Show sample answer
Model answer: The question of whether university education should be free continues to divide public opinion in many countries. Supporters of free education argue that it removes financial barriers that currently prevent talented students from lower-income families from pursuing higher education, regardless of their academic ability. They point out that a more educated population benefits the entire economy through higher productivity, innovation, and tax revenue over time, making the upfront public investment worthwhile in the long run. Opponents, however, argue that free university education is simply not financially sustainable without significant tax increases or cuts elsewhere in public spending. They suggest that tuition fees encourage students to choose their studies more carefully and value their education more, since they have personally invested in it. Some also argue that subsidizing all students equally, including those from wealthy families who could easily afford fees, is an inefficient use of public money. In my opinion, a middle path serves society best. Rather than making university entirely free for everyone, governments could offer income-based tuition support, ensuring that cost is not a barrier for capable students from disadvantaged backgrounds, while wealthier families continue to contribute towards the cost of their children's education. This approach preserves the social mobility benefits of free education's strongest argument, without placing an unsustainable burden on public finances. Ultimately, the goal should be ensuring that ability and motivation, not financial background, determine who can access higher education.
