Speaking Task 4 Integrated Task: Read-Listen-Speak
Fact-Based Argument Speaking task four is a fact-based argument. For this task, you will integrate three skills: reading, listening and speaking objectively. The task order follows.
Fact-Based Argument • For this task, you must: • take notes as you read and listen; • summarize the main points in the reading and in the lecture; • synthesize the main points in the reading and in the lecture; • paraphrase the main points in the reading and in the lecture. • You can develop and deliver a response for this task using G+3 Ti. C=C. This argument map will help you take notes and give the speaking raters what they are trained to listen for: a coherent integrated spoken response that demonstrates OPDUL=C.
Structure of the Task
Developing a Response: Step-by-Step When developing and delivering a response for this task, use G+3 Ti. C=C and the following five steps to demonstrate OPDUL=C in your response.
Step 1: Make a note map; read and summarize the reading.
Developing a Response: Step-by-Step
Identifying the Main Topic • Identifying and summarizing the premise is your first task. The premise is the main topic. It will be stated in the topic sentence. The premise will be expressed using a rhetorical strategy. For example, a date in the premised will signal the rhetorical strategy of narration. Narration, in turn, will signal the start of a general description of an historical person or event, for example: In 1878, Thomas Edison formed the Edison Electric Light Company in New York City. • The premise might also employ the rhetorical strategy of process. Making microprocessors is a complicated process. First, you must… • The premise might also employ the rhetorical strategy of description. J. D. Salinger, an eccentric recluse, penned The Catcher in the Rye, a coming-of-age novel in which a young hero rebels against the world.
Identifying the Main Topic • The premise might also employ the rhetorical strategy of cause-and-effect. Training a cat is next to impossible. • The premise might also employ the rhetorical strategy of definition. Estrogen is a hormone found in both men and women. • The premise might also employ the rhetorical strategy of definition and cause-and effect. Estrogen is a hormone found in both men and women; however, its function in men is not entirely understood. • The premise might also employ the rhetorical strategy of classification. Animal behavior can be classified according to the time of day an animal is active. • Read the sample passage once again. Notice how the premise is stated in the topic sentence and is identified by the rhetorical signal words can be classified followed by a description of the classifying process.
Developing a Response: Step-by-Step • Next, summarize the reading under R on your note map. To summarize means to identify and generally describe the main points. In the sample reading, the main points are the premise (classifying animal behavior) and a general description of each animal classification.
Step 2: Listen to the lecture; summarize it. • When the reading ends, it will be replaced by the lecture. It will last 60 -90 seconds. Read along as you listen to the sample lecture. As you listen, summarize the main points of the lecture under L on your note map.
Step 2: Listen to the lecture; summarize it.
Step 3: Read the prompt.
Step 3: Read the prompt.
Step 4: Prepare your response (30 seconds). • When the narrator stops reading the prompt, you will have 30 seconds to prepare your response. Look at your map and begin to organize your ideas using G+3 Ti. C=C.
Step 5: Speak (60 seconds).
Step 5: Speak (60 seconds).
Step 5: Speak (60 seconds).
Four Common Problems 1. Lack of Reading Passage Development. Summarization 2. Lack of Body Paragraph Development. Summarization 3. Mixing Verb Tenses 4. Stating Your Opinion
