這張題卡的準備方式
這個題目在不同的地方會以略微不同的說法出現：有時是「a sport or activity your best friend does」，有時是「the sports or activities your best friend does」，偶爾會把「activity」換成「hobby」。這些是同一張題卡（cue card）常見的不同說法，不是不同的題目，所以下面的準備方式適用於其中任何一種：選一位具體的朋友和一項具體的活動，不管眼前的說法是什麼，都用同樣的方式組織回答。
這張題卡的要點要你描述別人的活動，而不是自己的，考生常在這裡出錯：結果主要在談自己，或談這項運動的一般情況，而沒有特別談自己的朋友。請讓朋友成為大多數句子的主詞：他做什麼、怎麼開始的、投入的程度，而不是離題去談這項運動的規則或好處。
選一項你親眼看過，或聽朋友講得比較詳細的活動，即使很普通也沒關係，例如五人制足球或週末健行，因為聽來的具體細節（「he trains twice a week before work」）遠比對一項你不太了解的運動說些含糊的話更有說服力。

範例回答
以下是這張題卡完整回答的一種寫法，用來示範結構和程度，不是要你照背。
I’d like to talk about my best friend Dilnoza, who’s been really into running for the last couple of years. We’ve known each other since university, and back then neither of us did much exercise at all, so it actually surprised me when she suddenly took up running seriously. From what she’s told me, it started almost by accident — she signed up for a five-kilometre charity run mostly to support a colleague, assumed she’d struggle through it, and ended up genuinely enjoying the feeling afterwards, so she just kept going. Now she trains religiously, usually four or five mornings a week before work, and she’s gradually worked her way up to half marathons, which is a distance I honestly can’t imagine attempting myself. What I find quite admirable is how consistent she’s been about it; a lot of people take up a new hobby and drop it within a few months, but she’s genuinely stuck with running even through winter mornings and a fairly demanding job. I think for her it’s become less about competing and more about having a reliable way to unwind and clear her head before a busy day starts. Honestly, I feel a bit inspired by it, if I’m being truthful, because watching a close friend push herself consistently makes me more aware of how little exercise I actually do myself. It’s also given us something new to talk about, since she’ll often tell me about a race she’s just done.
這張題卡的常見錯誤
- 主要談這項運動的一般情況，而不是讓朋友成為主要的描述對象。
- 選了自己很不了解的活動，導致描述變得含糊又重複。
- 忘了「how you feel about it」的部分，讓回答只停在純粹的事實。
- 把這張題卡和「a sport you enjoy」混淆，那一題問的是你自己的活動，而不是朋友的。
常接著出現的Part 3題目
在你說完1～2分鐘之後，考官通常會進入相關的Part 3討論。以下是這個主題常見的追問類型。
- Do you think people should try to share hobbies with their close friends?你覺得人們應該試著和親近的朋友分享嗜好嗎？
- Are team sports more popular than individual sports in your country?在你的國家，團體運動比個人運動更受歡迎嗎？
- Why do some people lose interest in a sport or activity over time?為什麼有些人會隨著時間對某項運動或活動失去興趣？
- Should schools do more to encourage students to stay physically active?學校應該做得更多，鼓勵學生保持運動習慣嗎？
常見問題
如果我最好的朋友完全沒有從事任何運動或活動怎麼辦？
選另一位有運動習慣的親近朋友，並在第一句話就說明：「My best friend isn't very sporty, so I'll talk about another close friend who is.」考官評分看的是你的英文，不是你的生活實情，像這樣簡短調整一下，就能讓你維持在題目的範圍內。
我可以談不太算是「運動」的活動嗎，例如打電動或園藝？
可以。「activity」的範圍刻意定得很廣，所以只要朋友規律地、投入地在做，而你又能具體描述，都可以。
我需要詳細知道這項運動的專業規則嗎？
不需要。試圖解釋複雜的規則，通常只會浪費你描述朋友所需的時間。大致準確地說明這項活動包含什麼就夠了。
