A decision before an answer
- “相关” describes association. Retelling it as “导致” invents causation and can reverse an argument’s meaning.
- Your goal: Retell an argument with accurate scope and causal relationships.
A decision before an answer
- “related相关” describes association. Retelling it as “to lead to导致” invents causation and can reverse an argument’s meaning.

Read the relationship
- The new level-six oral sample uses two retellings of ninety seconds each, one picture task with three minutes preparation and two minutes response, and two question responses with three and a half minutes preparation and two and a half minutes speaking each. Total sample time is about twenty-three minutes including ten minutes preparation. It requires oral evidence separate from the new written notice and essay.
- Separate observed picture detail from interpretation.
Association between discussion and grades proves:
Alternative explanations prevent that causal conclusion.
Use the defining rule
- Track the argument rather than isolated facts: central claim, reasons, example, concession and conclusion. Preserve scope markers such as 部分, 可能 and 在…情况下. Do not convert association into causation or a proposal into an accomplished result. Retell in clear language without adding unsupported specialist facts.
- Defend a position while addressing a relevant counterargument.

- Defend a position while addressing a relevant counterargument.
A relevant objection should be:
Responding to the actual challenge develops the position.
Check the conditions
- For the picture, first describe visible relationships, then justify an interpretation from them. If the scene could support several explanations, use 可能 or 看起来 rather than claiming certainty. An organised interpretation is stronger than a list of sophisticated words with no coherent relation to the image.
- Defend a position while addressing a relevant counterargument.
Original source claim: 某校发现，经常参加讨论的学生成绩较高，但这并不能证明讨论本身提高了成绩，因为这些学生也可能投入更多学习时间。 Faithful retelling keeps the association and alternative explanation. For an independent view, recommend structured discussion while recognising that attendance alone is not evidence of learning.

Apply the task format
- For a position question, state a defensible claim, explain a reason and evidence, address one serious objection and identify a condition that resolves it. Keep the conclusion proportionate to the evidence. Human assessment records development, reasoning, organisation, flexibility and intelligibility; productive oral quality cannot be reduced to matching a written model.
- Defend a position while addressing a relevant counterargument.
A confident voice does not make a causal claim valid. Distinguish faithful retelling from your own evaluation.
Which answer fits this case?
Retell an argument with accurate scope and causal relationships
Retelling may add a causal conclusion absent from the source.
Retelling must preserve the source’s evidential strength.
