Practice materials for the Cambridge English exams are often hard to find, so I compiled this article with pictures for B2 First Speaking Part 2.
The Cambridge B2 First Speaking Part 2 is one of 4 parts. Here are practice questions for part 2.
Part 1 consists of general questions about yourself, your life and your opinions. This takes about 2 minutes, and you will probably be asked 3 or 4 questions.
In Part 2, you need to describe, compare and contrast two pictures and answer a question. You are only allowed 1 minute to do this, so some practice is essential. Practice pictures and questions are below, while Part 2 sample answers are here.
Part 3 is in two parts. The first part is a discussion between you and the other candidate(s) using the topics on a given diagram. It is important in this part to interact with the other candidates well and not speak more than you should. The target language for this part is mainly agreeing, disagreeing, giving your opinion and asking for opinions. You have 2 minutes.
The second part is 1 minute for the candidates to come to an agreement which of the options is the best or most important.
Part 4 is general questions which cover the same topic as Part3, but in more depth. You are also expected to agree or disagree with the answers the other candidate(s) give and give your opinion. This part lasts a total of 4 minutes. In these answers, you should sound organised and give examples if you want. Try to talk about people in general rather than yourself, so it is more formal.
Sample answers for parts 3 and 4 are here.
Vocabulary for people is used frequently in B2 First speaking Part 2 and is available here on Quizlet.
