1.Thentheexaminersayssomethinglike:

 “Goodmorning.Myname’sJohn.Couldyoutellmeyourfullname,please?

”

∙Manyexaminerssaythesethreesentencestogether,withoutpausingaftersaying,“Goodmorning.Myname'sX.” Becausetheexaminerdoesnotpausetowaitforthecandidatetoreturnthegreeting,mostcandidatesjustanswerthequestionwithoutreturningthegreeting.However,it’sbothgoodmannersandmorefriendlytoreturnagreeting.Inotherwords,youshouldinclude“Goodmorning.”or“Goodafternoon”inyouranswer.Ifyoucancatchtheexaminer’sname（withoutaskinghimtorepeatitbecausehewantstodothissectionquitefast）thenyoushouldalsoincludehisorhernameinyouranswer.

∙Don'tsay, “Goodmorning,Mr.John.”ThewordsMr.,Miss,Mrs.andMs.areonlyusedbeforeaperson'ssurnameand“John”isnot（usually）asurname.Theexaminerusuallyjustsayshisorhergivenname（firstname）,nottheirfullname. 

∙Asuitablereplyis:

“Goodmorning,John.MynameisWangJianfeng.”Ifyoudonotincludehisname,itdoesn’tmattertoomuchbutrememberthattheexaminerisahumanbeingandhearingyousayhisnamewouldbeapleasantsurpriseforhim!

Hewillthinkofyou,“Whataniceperson!

”

∙Throughoutthespeakingtest,itisbesttousethecontractedformsofEnglishwheneverpossiblebutinthisfirstanswer,itisperfectlyappropriatetosay,“Mynameis”ratherthan,“Myname’s”.ItisappropriateherebecausewhenapersonstateshisorhernameinasituationsuchastheIELTSinterview,theyusuallywanttosayitveryclearlysothatthelistenermakesnomistakewiththename.Don'tforget,theexaminerisverifyingyouridentityhere. 

∙It’soktosay,“Goodmorning,John.MyfullnameisWangJianfeng.”butit’snotreallynecessarytorepeattheword,“full”.However,youdefinitelymustsayyourcompletename–don’tjustsay,“Myname’sWang.”

∙EventhoughyouarespeakingaChinesename,youstillshouldspeakitclearlyfortheforeigner.Infact,youshouldspeakitmoreclearlythanyouwouldifyouwerespeakingtoaChineseperson.Thisisbecauseitisimportantfortheexaminertoconfirmthatitreallyisyousittingthereandnotyourbrotherorsomeoneelse.Theexaminerhasyourapplicationforminfrontofhimandyournameiswrittenonitinhanyupinyin.Remember,theexaminerdoesnotwanttowastetimebyaskingyoutorepeatyournamebecausehedidn’thearitclearly.

∙Don’tchangetheorderofyournameandsayyournameis,“JianfengWang”.（Evenifyoudothetestoverseas,respectyourChinesenamingsystem.） 

Besides,yournamewillbewrittenas,"WangJianfeng"ontheapplicationform,whichiswhattheexaminerislookingatasyousayyourname.

∙Don’tsay,“MyChinesenameis_____”.Itiscompletelyunnecessarytosaytheword,“Chinese”becausethepurposehereistocheckyourlegalidentity,thatis,yourrealname;youonlyhaveonelegalnameandthatisyourChinesename.Thewordingofthequestion,“...yourfullname...”showsthatthisisaseriousquestionandthattheexaminerwantsyoutosayyourrealname.YourEnglishname,ifyouhaveone,isnomoresignificantthananickname;youcanchangeitatanytime.

∙Don’tspellyourname. （Onlyspellitiftheexaminercan'tunderstandyourpronunciationofit.） 

∙Don’tsay,“WangismyfamilynameandJianfengismygivenname.”Thequestiondidn’taskyoutoexplainyourname.SometimesthereisaPart1topicconcerning‘Names’andinsuchatopic,explainingyournamecouldbesuitable.Butnothere.SayingthatalsogivestheexaminerthefeelingthatyouranswercomesfromanIELTSbook.Youshouldavoidcausingtheexaminertothinkthisbecauseexaminersverymuchpreferoriginalanswersfromyou.Theonlytimewhenit might beappropriatetoexplainwhichisyoursurnameandwhichisyourgivennameisifyouareaChinesepersondoingtheIELTStestoverseas.  

∙Don’tcalltheexaminer,“Sir”,“Miss”or“Madame”.Ifyoudidn’thearhisorhername,justsay,“Goodmorning.”withoutsayinghisorhername.Using“Sir”, “Miss”or“Madame”isasignthatyoueitherconsidertheexaminertobeateacherorthatyouarebeingunnecessarilyformalorthatyouconsidertheexaminertobeyour‘superior’–youshouldthinkoftheexaminerasanequal,notassomeonesuperiortoyou.Ifyouthinkoftheexaminerasanequal,youwillspeakmoreopenly,bemorerelaxedandgetabetterscorethanifyouthinkheorsheisasuperior, orsomekindof‘examininggod’.Remember,WesternersareusuallylessformalthanChinesepeople.

∙Theexaminer’squestionwas,“Couldyoutellmeyourfullname,please?

”andthissoundslikea“Yes/No”question.However,thisformofquestionisnotreallya“Yes/No”question;it’sanindirectquestion,whichreallymeans,“Whatisyourfullname?

”Indirectquestionsareconsideredmorepolitethandirectquestions. 

∙Wheneveryouareaskedsuchanindirectquestion,youshouldnotanswerwith,“Yes”or,“Yes,Icould.”NativeEnglishspeakerssometimesdoanswersuchquestionsbyfirstsayingaveryquick,“Yes”but you shouldnotsaythatbecausetheexaminermightthinkthatyouthinkitreallyisa“Yes/No”question. 

∙Somecandidatesgiveananswersuchasthis:

“MynameisWangJianfengbutyoucancallmeRobert.”Thisanswerisquiteacceptableandquitenaturalinanon-testsituation,forexample,ifyoumeetaforeigneronthebus.ButIsuggestyoudon'tsaythatintheIELTSSpeakingtestbecausesomeexaminersmightthinkthatyoualreadyknewwhatthesecondquestionis（“WhatcanIcallyou?

Notonlythat,addingthewords,“...butyoucancallme...”inasituationwheresomeoneis verifyingyouridentity isalittleunsuitable.Ifapolicemanorabankclerkaskedyou, “Canyoutellmeyourfullname,please?

”wouldyouanswerwith, “MynameisWangJianfengbutyoucancallmeRobert”?

∙Inotherwords,Iwouldsayitisbetter not toadd,“...butyoucancallme...”afterthisquestion.Instead,waitfortheexaminer'ssecondquestion.

Withthisquestion,theexaminerisindicatingthatheorshewouldliketoaddressyouinthetestwithsomenamethatisshorterand friendlier thanyourfullname.Thisisasignthatthetestwillnotbeveryformalandseriousbutwillinstead,tosomeextent,havesomeofthefeaturesofafriendlychat.
