Jul 22, 2021 12:37 pm
Hi Friends, Teacher Luke here,
Did you know that you need to describe 4 photos on the Duolingo English Test?
- 3 Write About the Photo
- 1 Speak About the Photo
So, being able to describe a photo well is essential to getting a good score.
But, what should you write or say? And, how can you organize your answer?
👇 Here are some ideas (for Write About the Photo)
General overview. Write what the photo is mainly about.
Example: This is a photo of a soccer fan in a large stadium.
Who is doing what? Write about the actions of the main subjects in the photo.
Example: He is holding a flag over his head and cheering his team.
What is where? Write about the location of the objects in the photo.
Example: He is standing near the field and there are more fans in front of him.
Speculate. Make a guess about what is happening.
Example: This photo was probably taken during a World Cup match.
Note: You only have 60 seconds, so you cannot write 4 sentences like the ones above. I'm showing you these sentences to give you some ideas.
