Topic-related vocabulary is extremely useful–probably the most useful of all and the easiest to remember since you are going to use it. Here’ s a list with all the topics you are most likely to encounter in your speaking (Part 3) and your writing (Task 2).
In every topic, I give you some ideas in the form of sentences (examples) using the topic related vocabulary (common words and phrases to help you get started). These words and phrases are going to be in bold. Some of them are linking phrases. All of them can be used in both writing and speaking.
Even if you come across a topic that is not in this list (which is highly unlikely), you will still be able to use the words and phrases that you have learnt here as nearly all words and phrases can be used in more than one topic.
How to practise!
Choose a topic. Read the sentences-examples many times. Try to use them in your own examples (orally). In the end of every topic, I give you some questions. Think how you could answer them using phrases, words, and ideas from the topic vocabulary. Only when you are fluent enough, will it be wise to move on to the next topic.
Are you ready? Let’s go!
