前面分两篇文章介绍了口语考试中Part 1和Part 2的一些考试技巧，这篇文章主要介绍口语考试的最后一个部分 Part 3的考试题型和一些答题技巧。
Part 3一般是在part 2 话题的基础上进行延伸，由考官提问与Part 2话题相关的问题。考官的问题很少涉及私生活，一般考察考生对社会问题的思考和表达。下面是Part 3与Part 2问题的示例：
Part 2：Describe a time that you are helped.
Part 3: Have you ever been helped by a neighbor?
How can communities be improved?
How can neighbors help each other?
在Part 3环节，有几个点需要注意：
1.不要过久思考。考官提问后，稍微思考下就可以作答，思考太长时间会让考官觉得你组织语言的能力不行。
2.尽量避免重复和卡顿。在回答问题的过程中，尽量不要重复使用同一个单词或词组，语言表达要尽可能的流利，不要出现过于明显的卡顿。
3.对考官提出的问题，回答不一定要积极，如果实在不了解，可以向考官表达你并不清楚这个事情，可以稍微进行一点合理的猜测。注意进行合理猜测，言之有物。因为后续问题有可能关于你的回答进行展开，因此不要深入讨论自己不了解的话题，或给出自己不明原因的回答。
下面介绍几种Part 3考试的题型：
comparing
①时间比较（time comparison）
例：
Are houses nowadays , the same as houses 30 years ago in your country?)
注意：回答时需要用不同的时态。
②社会群体(social group)的比较
例：
Do men and women like the same types of books?
Do old and young people like the same holidays?
③地域的比较
Are houses in your country the same as houses in here?
注意使用用一些比较的结构和句型。例：
1.The comparative language is “whereas, in contrast, while on the other hand”.
2.Well obviously…. Well undoubtedly……….
3.There are a number of underlying differences.
4.However, I guess that the most significant would be that……..
5.For example……. Whereas on the other hand………
6.In addition …….
7.……a second key distinction would be that…….
Predicting题型也是part 3 经常考得一类题型
例如题目” what will houses be like in the future?”
回答此类问题时，应注意全程使用一般将来时态。同时运用一些较为高级的时间指示词或者连接词。
I am sure that in years to come we will see a number of changes related to this.
Primarily, it looks quite probable that we are going to have…….
On top of this, it is quite likely that we will soon have …….
Why 题型是Part 3 中经常考到的题型
例如“why do so many people want to be famous?”
why 问题中可用的加分连接词，例：
1.In my opinion
2.a number of factors involved
3.Primarily
4.as well as that
5.As far as I am concerned
6.In my perspective
7.The reason why.
总结：最需要注意的一点是，Part 3的考点在于你怎么去表达，你说的内容是什么远没有你表达方式重要，对于Part 3可套用公式为：opinion+reason+support。
