A Speaking Part 2 answer that needs something from every part of this chapter.
Describe a person who helped you. You should say who they are, how they helped, and how you felt.
I would like to talk about my old neighbour, Mrs Ferreira.
She is probably the most person I have ever met — when my mother was ill she cooked for us three times a week for a whole winter and would not take a penny for any of it. She is also extremely ; she taught me to drive, and I stalled at the same junction perhaps twenty times without her ever once raising her voice.
I was fifteen and we lived in a very part of town — there were no shops open after six and almost no buses. So having someone next door who would simply appear with food mattered more than it might sound.
I was extremely to her for that winter, and I still am. I was also, honestly, quite about how we would have managed without her.
I see her about twice a year, she moved to be closer to her daughter. , she is the reason I always offer to help neighbours now, even when it is inconvenient.
A short Part 2 answer using all five clusters — marked as speech, not as writing.
Part 2 card: Describe a place you used to visit often. You should say where it was, what you did there, and how you felt about it — and explain why you do not go there as often now.
The card is built so that you need four of the five clusters: a place, a feeling, a past habit, and an opinion. Bring in a person too if it fits.

Just the items, separated by commas.
Name the one you would still hesitate on, and get those words back first.
