PART 1 May I see your photo identification please? Can I just check your name? Did I pronounce it correctly? Are you working or are you a student? What do you do? Is there anything you specifically like about your work? Why did you choose this job? Could you tell what your typical day is like at work? Could I just ask you a few questions about your future plans please? What are your plans for your next holiday? Do you have any plans to travel or live abroad? PART 2, TOPIC CARD: YOUR BEST FRIEND Describe your best friend. You should say how you first met, How long you have been friends? What do you do together? Explain why you like this person. PART 3 We've been talking about friends and I'd like to ask you one or two more questions related to this topic. First, lets consider relationships, do you think peoples values regarding friendship have changed over the years, in your country? What do you think of these changes? Do you think it is an improvement? Do you think this will change in the future or stay the same? Could you expand on that point please?
