- When was the last time you went out with your friends?
- Do you prefer to go out alone or with friends?

Speaking Test 2

Interview

(I was quite shocked to be asked about 10-13 questions during my 1st interview.)

Cue card
I was asked to talk about my trip which was not up to my expectations and say:
- what happened,
- what did I do and
-what was my feeling.
( I finished it in less than 2 minutes and frankly I didn’t encounter any such bad experience before.)

Discussion
I was asked question about the tourist industry, the impacts of it, both positive and negative, future tourists, etc.
