in paper 2 when they say write an interview do we base it on the given question.. eg if there is 3 questions,, is this how it suppose to look wen answering

interviewer: 1st question
person: answer

interviewer: 2nd question
person: answer

interviewer: 3rd question
person: answer

Basically, those are the three main questions. However, personally, I alternate responses, to make it sound more realistic...and adds more "flavor" Adding in a couple of q's that should motivate and initiate the response, aiding in the answering of the main question.

E.g.

3 Questions may be...
- What were your feelings before the exam?
- What were your feelings during the exam?
- What were your feelings after the exam?

What I'd do is ask the first question...
And then, the answer, e.g. I was so nervous! I had butterflies in my stomach etc.
Interviewer: Really, is that so?

Person: Yeah! It was my first time to sit an "actual" exam, not from the school. etc.

Interviewer: Oh, I see. And then, what about during the exam?

Person: I saw the paper and I couldn't believe it! etc.

Interviewer: Why?! What happened?! Did you get the wrong paper? Weren't you prepared?

Person: No, no. The exact opposite, as a matter of fact. It was the easiest paper that I have ever attempted! etc.

Interviewer: Wow, you must have been relieved!

Person: You have no idea! I had a smile on my face throughout the exam. etc.

Interviewer: Wow, you are one lucky person; what about after your exam?

Person: I was jumping all over the place, as soon as I got the chance to leave the examination hall. Everybody was talking about it outside! I hugged my teacher and friends and it was just unbelievable! I'm a much more confident person etc. I realised that practice really does make perfect, etc.

So, I hope you get my point. Obviously in an exam, I would elaborate and add more detail and stuff....

Hope you understand
