Seb Answers - IELTS Speaking Model - TV and advertising
Manage episode 316930386 series 3266959
Key concept — Using idiomatic language does not mean using expressions like, “A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.” You’ll almost never find a natural way to incorporate idioms like this in your responses. This example of figurative language is fun to learn, but it won’t help your score to study these expressions as a strategy. However, idiomatic language includes everyday collocations (word combinations), and thus using vocabulary, including low-frequency academic words, appropriately will raise your score.
Part 2:
Describe a television programme you watch.
Part 3:
To what extent are people influenced by the advertising that they see on television?
Should filmmakers be responsible for the impact of their films on people?
Should TV series be viewed episode by episode or in just a could or three sittings?
Should parents restrict the nature of programming or time spent that children watch TV?
