Recorded on your device only — play it back and compare with the model answer.
Show sample answer
Model answer: This is a picture of milk, probably in a carton or a bottle. It might be in a fridge at home, or in a supermarket where a customer is choosing groceries. Many people have it with breakfast, in coffee or with cereal. The milk is the only thing shown, so the picture feels simple and clean, and it makes me think of a morning routine.

Express an Opinion

Give your opinion and support it with reasons.

Some people think social media has done more good than harm, while others disagree. What is your opinion?
Recorded on your device only — play it back and compare with the model answer.
Show sample answer
Model answer: I think social media has brought both real benefits and serious problems, but overall I lean towards seeing more harm, especially for younger users. On the positive side, it helps people stay connected with family and friends abroad and gives small businesses an affordable way to reach customers. However, it also contributes to anxiety, comparison, and the spread of misinformation, particularly among teenagers who are still forming their sense of identity. I believe stronger guidance on healthy usage, rather than banning it entirely, would help society enjoy the benefits while reducing the negative effects.

Write an Opinion Essay

Write an essay giving your opinion with reasons and examples.

Some people believe artificial intelligence should be used to grade student work, while others believe this task should remain solely with human teachers. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Show sample answer
Model answer: As artificial intelligence tools become more capable, schools increasingly consider whether AI should take on the responsibility of grading student assignments and exams. Supporters argue that AI grading offers significant advantages in consistency and speed, evaluating large numbers of assignments according to the same standardized criteria without the fatigue or subjective bias that can affect human graders after reviewing many similar submissions. This could free teachers' time for more valuable activities like individual student support and lesson planning. Opponents argue that AI currently struggles to evaluate the nuanced, creative, or deeply contextual elements present in many assignments, particularly in subjects like literature or philosophy, where a human understanding of tone, originality, and argument quality remains difficult to fully automate. They also worry that students and parents may distrust grades assigned without human judgment, and that removing teachers from this process could weaken the valuable feedback relationship between students and educators. In my opinion, AI grading is currently best suited to objective, structured assessments, such as multiple-choice tests or basic grammar exercises, where clear right and wrong answers exist. For more subjective, creative, or complex assignments, I believe human judgment should remain central, though AI could still assist teachers by flagging potential issues or providing a preliminary assessment for teachers to review and adjust. This combined approach could improve efficiency while preserving the essential human judgment and personal connection that meaningful feedback requires.
