What to do if the speaking 2 promp ask you about something you haven't done before ?

Post by Sal7000 »

Hi everyone !

what shall I do if the speaking prompt part 2 ask you to talk about something you haven't done before. like this prompt for example :

Describe a sports match which you saw and which you found enjoyable.
You should say :
What the sport was.
Who was playing in this game.
Where you watched it.
and explain why you enjoyed watching the match so match.


In my society women rarely attend sport amtch. They are usually attended by young men.

So what shall I do if I am faced with a question that asks to talk about something I haven't tried before.

Thanks.

Use your imagination!

You could talk about a sports event you saw on TV and just pretend you were actually there, for example.

I doubt that women don't play sports in your culture. I mean, you'd likely have the fattest females on the planet if none of them ever played sports, even at school. ;) Besides, has your country never participated in the Olympics?! (If not, which country is that?)

Use your imagination!
