    a text, in which you should refer to the information contained in the recording and in the reading comprehension text, both related to the same underlying topic. In the same text you are expected to describe your experiences or express your own opinion connected with the assignment topic.
  • In the oral part, just like before, you will be speaking toan examiner on the basis of the stimulus material offered (a picture or short text). Furthermore, you will be given ten sentences with gaps to be completed with the appropriate grammatical or lexical items. That is a task which up to now has been included in the written part of the examination.
