🇮🇹 ITALIANO IN PILLOLE

📝 PROIBITO

Remember, if you want to score a band 7 in your IELTS speaking test, it’s important to use some less common idiomatic expressions.

The best place to slip these idioms into your speech is in part 2, because you have 1 minute to prepare. If you are a clever clogs, you will be able to sneak your idioms into your speech naturally. 

When preparing for your exam it’s best to always try to go the extra mile, because there is a lot to learn.

Firstly, you have to learn how to use linking phrases. To be honest, I have to admit these are sometimes tricky to remember. On the other hand, once you have learned them, they can be difficult to forget.

Secondly, you have to learn how to paraphrase, and use synonyms. It’s good to spend time in a thesaurus and arm yourself with lots of alternative words. If you do this you will gain ground. 

Thirdly, in order to avoid feeling lost at sea when you take your exam, make sure you have one or two idioms up your sleeve. You can’t teach an old dog new tricks, but you can teach an English student a new idiom. 

Now take the quiz that goes with this podcast, and book your IELTS mock speaking test with me.

孙子说：古代善于指挥作战的人，总是先创造条件使自己处于不被战胜的地位，然后等待战胜敌人的机会。做到不被战胜，关键在于自己能否掌握主动权；敌人能否被战胜，在于敌人是否给我们以可乘之机。所以，善于作战的人，能够做到不被敌人战胜，而不是做到战胜敌人。所以说，胜利可以预见，却不能强求。
 
有了不被战胜的条件，就可以守；敌方出现了可乘之机，就可以攻。之所以施行防守，是因为实力不足，取胜的条件不够充分；之所以采取进攻，是因为实力强大而敌人相对弱小。善于防守的，如同深藏于地底，敌人无迹可寻；善于进攻的，能高度机动灵活地打击敌人，犹如神兵天降，让敌人防不胜防。所以，善防善攻的军队，既能保全自己，又能战胜敌人。
