Speaking contest! Cue card seen in Jordan

[Ryan]

Several months ago, an IELTS test taker in Jordan shared the questions he faced on the exam with me. His cue card was this:

Describe a person you know who made a good decision.
Who is this person?
What was their decision and why do you feel it was positive?
What resulted from their decision?

I'd like to use the above cue card as part of a speaking contest this week. If you'd like to participate, all you need to do is record a 1-2 minute response to the above and post it as a reply to this message thread (watch the video at viewtopic.php?f=4&t=16 for details on how to post your MP3 recording to this website).

The deadline for submission will be the same as the writing contest: 23:59 on 23 AUGUST 2013 (one week from today). Don't be shy!

If you don't have an account on IELTSNetwork.com, you'll need to set one up. It only takes a minute and is completely free of charge. Video instructions are available here: (viewtopic.php?f=2&t=20)

I talk about the contests in this video (after my preamble on the launch of this website):

Great posts, guys. I'm really looking forward to running an assessment on them using the IELTS Speaking Band Descriptors chart this Saturday.

Ajaz, I've added the MP3 player to your post to make it easier for visitors to listen to your submission.
