Question
¿Qué es la conversación en el oral individual?
Answer
Es la parte después de la presentación: el profesor comenta el estímulo contigo y luego pasáis a una conversación general sobre otros temas.
Question
¿Cuál es la regla de oro de la conversación?
Answer
Desarrollar las respuestas: nunca contestar con una sola palabra.
Question
¿Cómo justificas una respuesta en español?
Answer
Con una razón («porque…») o un ejemplo («por ejemplo…»).
Question
¿Qué frase usas para pedir aclaración si no entiendes?
Answer
«¿Podría repetir la pregunta, por favor?» — pedir aclaración es mejor que quedarse en silencio.
Question
¿Cómo aportas tu experiencia personal en la conversación?
Answer
Con expresiones como «En mi caso…», «En mi país…» o «En mi instituto…».
Question

Question
pedir aclaración
Answer
to ask for clarification — «¿Podría repetir la pregunta, por favor?»
Question
Why is a one-word answer a problem in the conversation?
Answer
It gives the examiner almost nothing to mark — you lose Message and Interactive marks. Always add a reason or example.
Question
What's the five-move routine for answering a question well?
Answer
Listen, answer and develop, justify with a reason or example, add your own experience, and ask for clarification if unsure.
Question
What should you do if you don't understand a question?
Answer
Ask politely for it to be repeated («¿Podría repetir, por favor?») — never go silent.
Question
Roughly how long should each answer be?
Answer
About three sentences: the answer, a reason or example, and a touch of your own experience.
Question
Which criterion does developing the conversation help most?
Answer
Criterion C (Interactive & receptive /6), and developed, justified ideas also lift Criterion B (Message /12).
