Band 9.0 Sample Answer
It had been almost 8 years since I competed in an English speaking contest, standing on a big stage in front of a hundred-strong crowd to deliver one of the best speeches I’ve ever given with the support of my friends. That was something. You can never forget in your whole life and the most magnificent moment, bar none of my high school highlights. Never had it crossed my mind that one day I would be on stage talking about the thing I treasured most in my life—my family and friends, or just be qualified enough to represent the entire school at such a competition. If it hadn’t been for my English teacher’s constant encouragement, I wouldn't have participated in the contest in the first place. Students were free to choose their topics and were asked to present it in front of a panel of judges and an audience. It sounded intimidating for so many reasons, but I had managed to subdue my anxiety and learned to believe in myself. Preparation for D-day was tough for everyone, both emotionally and physically. We kept practicing nonstop for 4 hours. Straight, every single day; me trying to perfect my pronunciation and acquire That American accent, my friends singing their hearts out to Miley Cyrus’s song True. Friend,” since we wanted to kick our performance up a notch by featuring some musical element. Our hard work had finally paid off, with us bringing home the Champion Cup as well as the Best Performance Award. It brought me to tears as I realised at that moment that it wouldn’t have mattered if we hadn’t won. Because we already won when we got over ourselves and stepped out of our comfort zone and kept going till the end. That was our true victory. Until now, the lesson I learned eight years ago that it still has its own value and will always be there to remind me of those good old days.
