Reading Simulation (in the computer lab)
When you finish answering the questions, you can review the section to see which ones you got wrong and the justification for the right answer. (You can come back to continue reviewing at any time before someone else takes the same test and replaces your answers.)

Speaking Task 4
---
You’ll have between 40 and 50 seconds to read a short passage.
Then you’ll hear part of a professor’s lecture on the same topic.
Then you see the question/prompt and have 30 seconds to prepare.
Then you will be recorded speaking for 60 seconds.
---
Look at ETS 1 - test 1 (on the board) take 45 seconds to read the passage
topic of the text: verbal and nonverbal communication
- nonverbal includes gestures and expressions, body language (unconscious)
- when nonverbal agrees with verbal, it supports the message
- when nonverbal disagrees, it might give the opposite and more accurate message
---
If the text describes two types or scenarios, you should predict that the lecture will include specific examples of those two things.
---
Listen to the lecture and take notes.
“Explain how the examples from the professor’s lecture illustrate the relationship between verbal and nonverbal communication.”
---
Your response should have these parts:
1 Introduction: summarize the text (define nonverbal communication and briefly state that it can support or contradict verbal communication)
2 Lead-in: Say what points the professor makes (“The professor gives two examples of nonverbal communication.”)
3 First point: state the first point the professor gives
4 Detail/example: explain how the point relates to the main idea
5 Second point
6 Detail/example
---
Do the same for test 2, then take 5 minutes with your partners to prepare a “perfect” response to the prompt.
---
With 30 seconds to prepare, tell your partner your response to test 3.
---
Record your responses to the first two tests in the ETS guide.
