    • 'information gap' activities where a candidate has to find out information either
    from an interlocutor or a fellow candidate.
    • 'decision-making' activities, such as showing paired candidates ten photos of
    people and asking them to put them in order of the best and worst dressed
    • using pictures for candidates to compare and contrast, whether they can both see
    them or whether (as in many communication games) they have found similarities
    and differences without being able to look at each other's material
    • role-play activities where candidates perform tasks such as introducing
    themselves, or ringing a theatre to book tickets

    READING
    • multiple choice questions to test comprehension of a text
    • matching written descriptions with pic of the items/procedure, they describe
    • transferring written information to charts, graphs, maps, etc. (though special care

    • matching jumbled headings with paragraphs
    • inserting sentences provided by the examiner in the correct place in the text
