Speaking Task 6: Dealing with a Difficult Situation

Preparation: 60 seconds Recording: 60 seconds

Your neighbor is going out of town for the weekend and has asked you to accept a large package delivery for him—a new armchair. You would need to keep it in your apartment for a couple of days. Your roommate thinks this is a bad idea because your shared apartment is very small, and the armchair would make the living area feel crowded.

Choose ONE:
Talk to your roommate. Explain why you think you should help the neighbor.
OR
Talk to your neighbor. Politely explain why you cannot store the package for him.
