A good way to learn new words is to practise describing a photo.
What can you see in the photo? This photo is in PET Result Page 16.
When describing a photo you can think of different elements.

You describe what the people are wearing, what they are holding and what they are doing. You can use the present continuous.
For more information on the present continuous see Page 121 and 27 of PET Result Students' book
We can also use the present continuous to talk about tendencies in society, when things increase, decrease or stay the same.
See here for more examples.
You can also describe these trends using phrasal verbs, which are verbs and prepositions.
Use these pictures to describe other trends in society.
Try describing the photos in the Speaking exercise 1 and 2, page 28 of PET Result Students' book.
