I preferred last years Section C (and really all the previous years I had done up to '08), just because they seemed more argumentative.
Here's how I structured my Section C. I'm sure I phrased things better in the exam

Intro:
- Mentioned that the use of social media/technology has enabled volunteering on a global scale, and has generated interest and attention to the efforts of volunteers, generating praise for their work.
- The 'bigsplash' award is presented annually to a worthy volunteer organisation
- The CEO of 'bigsplash' Stephanie Bennett presented this award before the audience at the event gathering. In her speech, she contented was that volunteering is a significant undertaking in Australia, and that Australia should do more to recognise the efforts and contributions of volunteers.
- In contrast, in his acceptance speech, Nguyen (I spelt this surname incorrectly so many times, then corrected myself) proposed that volunteering is it's own reward, and that all individuals who are "lucky enough to live in comfort" should help others and volunteer.
P1 on Bennett
- Appreciative and enthusiastic tone
- Use of statistics to emphasise the significance of volunteering in Australia (1/4 of Australians)
- Use of economic figures to emphasise the vast contribution (if volunteers were paid minimum wage, would amount to billions per year)
- Uses rhetorical question to signpost the next portion of her speech "what would we do without them?"
- Lists of the assistance which volunteers provide in short, rapid succession, overwhelming the audience and persuading them of the vast scope of the contribution which volunteers make.
P2 on Bennett + Bennet Visual
- Subtle shift in tone as she becomes critical, almost attacking.
- Utilises inclusive language to involve the audience, make them feel responsible "we, to our great shame" "we take it for granted"
- Suggests that we need to be more appreciative of volunteering efforts
- The banner between the lectern is included to highlight this
- The empower hand raising/assisting the unempowered hand is commonly associated with helping those less fortunate/in need, but in the context of the speech it is suggested that Australians should assist and recognise the effort of volunteers, who are usually the ones providing this assistance.
P3 on Nguyen + Nguyen Visual
- Mention contention
- Begins speech in a humble, thankful tone
- "Disagrees" by highlighting that "volunteering is it's own reward"
- Argues that "those that have lived in comfort" should assist those who are doing tough - uses anecdote of "home's been wiped out in a flood" to appeal to morality and goodwill, empowers the audience to involve themselves by volunteering and assisting others
- The visual Nguyen has chosen to include in his organisation's application is a close up of hand clumped on top of one another.
- This visual suggests that volunteering and making a difference is the small efforts of many which together create a large impact.
- Furthermore, the faces of individuals in the image are not shown, suggesting that they do not require recognition for their efforts, and reinforcing that "volunteering is it's own reward"
Small conclusion.
---
That's just what I did, doesn't mean I was right and there are definitely different ways of approaching it (e.g. not from an argumentative / contrasting stance).
Hopefully I did alright, none of us will know until we get our results back. Hope you guys all did well - I liked the other to sections, so hoping for the best

Thanks for your support everyone, especially Lauren - your practise exams helped heaps! Good luck to you all with the rest of your exams!
