Band 9.0 Sample Answer
I love listening to music, so I like a multitude of songs. However, one of my favorite 
songs that I want to talk about today is “Hall of Fame” by The Script and Will.i.am. 
This song was written for the 2012 Olympic Games. 
When it came out, it quickly 
became a hit 
on every single music chart throughout 
the 
world, 
not 
just 
because 
of 
its 
catchy
melody
, 
but 
also 
for 
its 
meaningful
lyrics
. The song talks about how each of us can be a 
champion
or 
anything we want to be as long as we 
dedicate
our time and 
efforts
to doing what 
we are 
passionate
about. The song is 
played
at
big athletic events 
to pump 
up
the 
crowd
, but you can easily
 relate to
the song at other times as well, 
especially when you are about to
 give up.
I think this song has such a powerful message that whenever I was tired or had 
decided to 
quit
, it would
 lift me up
right away. It made me think about why I had 
started in the first place and that I needed to finish the job that I was currently 
doing. 
VOCABULARY:

became a hit: 
when a song becomes a hit, it means that it is super 
popular and that people are listening to it on the radio and buying it on iTunes or 
elsewhere. 
Example: Taylor Swif
t‟s song “Bad Blood” became a hit instantly.
