Idioms are a crucial aspect of the IELTS speaking test as they can help you demonstrate a higher level of English proficiency. Using idioms shows that you have a good grasp of the language and can express yourself in a more natural and nuanced way. In part 3 of the speaking test, where you engage in a discussion with the examiner, incorporating idioms can make your responses more engaging and memorable.

For example, instead of saying "I think it's important to consider both sides of the argument," you could use the idiom "to see both sides of the coin." This not only adds variety to your language but also showcases your ability to use idiomatic expressions appropriately.

Another example could be using the idiom "to kill two birds with one stone" when discussing the benefits of multitasking in the workplace. This not only demonstrates your fluency in English but also adds a touch of creativity to your responses.

Overall, incorporating idioms in your IELTS speaking test can help you stand out and impress the examiners. So, don't be afraid to sprinkle some idiomatic expressions throughout your responses!

Ouistiti et les balayeurs
Le papa de Ouistiti fait des cadres pour des tableaux. Un jour, il annonce:
- Ce matin, j'ai eu beaucoup de travail. Tant mieux! Plus j'ai de travail et plus je gagne de l'argent!
Cette réflexion rend Ouistiti songeur. Après le déjeuner, le petit singe sort dans la rue. Deux balayures nettoient le trottoir. Mais ils n'ont pas grand-chose à balayer! Ouistiti a une idée. Il court dans la cuisine, prends la poubelle et la vide sur le trottoir! Puis il dit au balayeur médusé:
- Comme ça, vous aurez plein de travail et vous gagnerez beaucoup d'argent!
