Is what the video shows feasible? How would you feel if you could use your mobile phone in this way?
We are students of C2 level in Maria Markaki school. At first, we published book reviews on this blog, which is why it used to be called 'Literature Blog', but all our latest posts have to do with the ECPE/ CPE exams. Thank you for dropping by!

Useful sample conversation for the 4th stage of Michigan Practice Test
B:I'd say one thing we should mention is that.... Don't you agree?
A: Definitely. That has to be one of the important points. We can say it's important because.... That's a good explanation, isn't it?
B:Yes, it is.
A: Why don't we also emphasize that... What do you think?
B: Actually, I think it'd be better to highlight the fact that.... I think that's much more important than...
A: Ok. Let's do that. And we could say that that's important because..... Is that what you'd say?
..........................
B: So those are the four reasons. Now how are we going to allocate them?
A: Well, I could present the points about... and..., unless you want to take those.
B: No that's fine. So I'll talk about..and..., . How shall we present these points? I could present two and then you could present two, or we could take the points one at a time and swap over after each one. Which do you prefer?
A: Let's present the reasons in pairs. First you, then me.
B: Ok, that's settled.
