Responding to Visual Prompts
In Teil 2 geht es um das Auswerten von Bildern (engl: Responding to Visual Prompts). Du und dein Partner müsst für je 60 Sekunden über ein Bild sprechen. Beide Bilder haben ein gemeinsames Thema (Hobbies, Sports, Freizeit, Essen, etc), über das ihr danach 2min reden müsst. Diskutiert über das Thema und geht auf den anderen ein und reagiert auf seine Fragen / Äußerungen!
Die Themen konzentrieren sich auf immer wiederkehrende Gebiete - auch wenn "Which room in your house do you like best?" erst einmal schockt - eigentlich geht es nur um Hobbies und Freizeitgewohnheiten.
Now, I'm going to give each of you a photograph.
Candidate A, here is your photograph.
(Hand one of the photographs to Candidate A).
Would you show it to Candidate B and talk about it, please?
Candidate B, you just listen to Candidate A. I'll give you a photograph in a moment.
Candidate A, please tell us what you can see in your photograph.
Useful Tips
- Start with a general idea of the subject of the picture before going into details.
"My picture is about …"
"This photo shows a …"
- Organise your description – don’t describe the same thing more than once
Use directions:
- Talk in sentences – don’t produce lists of items you can see
- Use the PRESENT PROGRESSIVE
"She's wearing a …"
"They are just doing their homework."
"The dog seems to be …"
"The boy looks very happy."
- Give reasons (related to the picture) for your ideas
"I can't see it very well, but it seems as if …;"
- Talk about the situation as well as the physical things you can see in the picture.
60 Sekunden gehen schnell vorüber. Sucht nicht nach einem bestimmten Wort, sondern umschreibt es / oder beschreibt andere Sachen.
