IELTS Writing Task 1: make your own questions

Yesterday I suggested making your own questions for writing task 2. To make a task 1 question, just do a Google image search for graphs, charts etc. Choose something simple, and try describing it.

Hi,

Can someone please assist.

In listening section,there is a conversation in which the speaker says he has forgotten to cancel an appointment and later says it was a dentist appointment.
So if we have a ques which says what has the speaker forgotten ?
Then would it be incorrect to write cancel dentist appointment if we have a limit of 3 words for the answer.Or is it mandatory to write cancel an appointment?

Thanks
