🇬🇧 CAE + CPE PART 1 QUESTIONS 🇬🇧
Hi guys! For those of you preparing for these exams (especially my students), here are some extra Part 1 questions to help you to practice more. The first set are the typical ones that might appear in these exams. The second section has a set or mental questions you'll never be asked but I do to arouse your imagination, to get you feeling comfortable talking rubbish but relevant rubbish. This is how we build fluency (it's very psychological).

Remember 4: You can give a real answer, you can lie... the examiners don't care which. We just want relevance and damn good English.
