Read Aloud
Read a short text aloud, clearly and naturally.
A short passage appears on screen. You get about 30–40 seconds to look it over, then the microphone opens and you read it aloud. It is usually the first scored task, after the unscored personal introduction, so a calm, steady read sets the tone for everything after it.
Scored on: Content, Oral Fluency, Pronunciation. PTE Academic and PTE Core.
