Candidates must demonstrate the ability to articulate personal viewpoints ranging from basic preferences to complex, nuanced arguments. Mastery requires the manipulation of opinion-governing verbs, including 'reverse' structures where the subject is the theme, and the accurate deployment of subordinating conjunctions to link justifications. Higher-level competence necessitates the use of the subjunctive mood to express doubt, emotion, or subjective evaluation within a debate context.
