If You Don't Know the Answer

How do you answer a question when you don't know anything about the topic? There are 2 things you can do:

1.Be honest and explain why you don't know

2.Guess, and tell the examiner that you are guessing

Example question: 示例 （有关音乐的P3考题）

“How has technology affected the kinds of music that young people listen to?”

My answer, using both tips above:

(1)To be honest I don't really know the answer to that because I'm completely out of touch with what young people are listening to, and I'm not a fan of pop music.

老实说，我真的不知道答案，因为我不了解现在年轻人在听人么音乐，而且我也不是一个热爱流行音乐的人。

(2) However, I suppose that technology must have affected music. Maybe young people are listening to music that has been made using computer software instead of real musical instruments like the piano or guitar.

但是，我认为科技对音乐还是有影响的。也许年轻人更多的是在听用电脑软件合成的音乐而不是听直接用乐器弹奏出来的音乐，比如说钢琴或者吉他。
