Communicate in Chinese (Mandarin) for a chosen purpose
You need to communicate in Mandarin Chinese for a real purpose of your choice — like sharing your interests, talking about an event, or describing an experience. Your communication should cover information, ideas, and opinions, and touch on things happening now, in the past, or in the future. The key is that listeners or readers can understand what you're trying to say, even if you make some small mistakes along the way.
You communicate your message clearly enough that the audience understands your main points, using some vocabulary and structures, even though there are some inconsistencies that don't seriously disrupt understanding.
You show good control of different sentence types and vocabulary choices, communicate ideas in a logical way that flows well, and have only minor inconsistencies that don't really get in the way of understanding.
You use a range of language accurately and confidently, connect your ideas smoothly and logically, and your communication is barely affected by any small mistakes.
