Hi Simon, I took the exam a week ago, in speaking test part two I used your sample answer about book, the one called mindset. But the examiner seemed to know I memorize your answer😂 She asked 'Did you tell anyone about this boook'...I was aiming for a 7, now should I hoping for a 6?...

Kate,
"Did you tell anyone about this book?" is just a standard question to follow on from your description. It doesn't imply that the examiner knew that you were using my answer. So don't worry - the examiner won't know that you've used my ideas, and it wouldn't affect your score anyway.

Hi Simon,I am new here, I want to know is the first answer the right one? where I can see the right answer from you? many thanks
Posted by: Nicole | April 03, 2018 at 01:42
Hi Simon
I'm still confused since the speaker put the stress on first vowel while spelling the number of associated languages to their brand new system.
To me he says 40 (not 14) because of the first vowel stress. Any comment on that?
