the speed limit should not be raised

Possible Answers
A: I think that drink-drivers should have their licence
taken away for a year.
B: Not in my opinion. Its not fair anyone can make a
mistake.
A: Oh, come on! Drinking and driving isnt just a
mistake its really reckless!
B: I suppose thats true, but if its the first time, maybe
the driver should get another chance.
A: I think youre wrong. Drinking and driving is too
dangerous. These people shouldnt be allowed to drive!
B:
I see what you mean. I suppose they should be
punished where it hurts by losing the right to drive.
A: Absolutely! OK, so weve decided that this suggestion
should be made into a law.
11
Possible Answer
Weve agreed that cyclists should be required to have a
licence because they ride on the roads and have to obey
the traffic laws.
Weve also agreed that it is a good idea to ban cars
from the city centre because it would be far safer for
pedestrians. Besides, more people would go shopping
in the city centre and it would also be good for the
environment.
Finally, weve also decided that parents are often unaware
of the way their children drive and they should take more
responsibility. Making parents pay for any damage might
help.

Although the idea of raising the speed limit on some
motorways, such as the M1 and the M6, could be a
reasonable idea, obviously most motorists have not
received adequate training to drive so fast.

2. I suppose that they had to leave their homes as the

3. I would imagine they are frightened and in shock.
4. It seems likely that they will go to a shelter for their
safety.
Possible Answers
Both pictures show people living in isolated places with
extreme weather conditions. The pictures are different
because picture I is in the desert and picture II is in an
Arctic community.
1. It must be difficult to get around and protect yourself
from the extreme weather conditions.
2. Life is probably lonely and a struggle to survive.
3. In picture I, the man is probably a nomad and tends
to his camels. In picture II, the people in this village
probably work as fishermen.
4. In picture I, they probably use camels. In picture II,
they probably use snowmobiles and dogsleds.
5. I would prefer the nomadic lifestyle because it must be
exciting to live in a tent.
6. I would prefer to live in the desert because I cant stand

Speaking Practice 6
Possible Answer
In the picture, you can see a young man sitting on a
suitcase. In the background, there seems to be a small
building that is locked. He might be waiting for someone
to open the building for him. Perhaps he has arrived too
early or the person has decided not to meet him. I would
imagine that he is disappointed and impatient. It seems
likely that he will leave soon.
Possible Answers
The two pictures are similar because they show people
on holiday. Both pictures show people relaxing outdoors.
The pictures are different because in picture I, the people
are camping while in picture II, they are at a hotel. One
picture shows the sea in the background, while the other
shows a swimming pool.
The advantage of camping is that its inexpensive and
peaceful. The disadvantage is that its hard work and not
always comfortable. The advantage of a hotel is that you
dont have to work hard, but its an expensive vacation
and can be very crowded.
When camping, you can enjoy nature, while in a hotel,
you can meet new people and participate in activities.
I would prefer to stay in a hotel because when I am on
holiday, I like to relax and not work hard.
Speaking Practice 5
Comparing Pictures page 110
Possible Answers
Both pictures show people taking part in a sport. The
pictures are similar because both sports take place
outdoors and the people need to have a good sense of
balance. The pictures are different because in picture I, the
person is surfing while in picture II, the person is cycling
on a mountain top. I think surfing is more dangerous
and thrilling because the sea is unpredictable. Cycling
is probably a more expensive sport because of all the
equipment.
I would prefer to cycle than to surf because cycling is a
good way to travel around.
