TOEIC Speaking Describe a Picture (Questions 3–4): A Train Platform and a Coffee Shop

Questions three and four: Describe a picture.

In this part of the test, you will describe the picture on your screen in as much detail as you can.

You will have forty-five seconds to prepare, then thirty seconds to speak about the picture.

Okay, I'm ready to start!

Question three. Begin speaking now.

This picture was taken at a train station on a sunny morning.

There are three people waiting on the platform.

On the left, a man in a grey suit is checking his watch.

He's holding a brown briefcase, so he's probably going to work.

In the middle, a young woman in a red coat is sitting on a bench,

and she has a black suitcase and a small bag with her.

On the right, an older woman in a purple jacket is holding a cup of coffee.

And look, a silver train is coming into the station right now!

Question four. Begin speaking now.

This is a picture of a small, cosy coffee shop.

A barista is standing behind the counter.

He's wearing a green apron, and he's handing a cup of coffee to a customer.

The customer is wearing a light blue sweater.

She's holding a card, so I think she's about to pay.

There are croissants and muffins in a glass case on the counter.

They're both smiling, so the service must be really friendly!

Practice set two. Question three. Begin speaking now.

This picture shows the reception desk of a hotel.

A receptionist in a black jacket is standing behind the desk.

She's smiling and handing a key card to the guests.

A man in a beige raincoat is holding a large black suitcase,

and a little boy in a yellow T-shirt is holding his hand.

There's a big vase of white flowers on the desk.

I think they're a father and son checking in for a holiday!

Question four. Begin speaking now.

In this picture, I can see the inside of a hardware store.

There are shelves full of tools and paint on both sides.

A worker in an orange vest is standing on a ladder.

He's putting a box on the top shelf.

Below him, a woman in a denim jacket is pushing a shopping cart.

She's holding a hammer, and there's a can of paint in her cart.

Maybe she's going to paint a room at home this weekend!

That's the end of practice set two. Well done!
