Describe a time when you saw an interesting animal.
You should say:
What the animal was
Where you saw it
What happened when you saw it
Why you thought it was interesting
Sample answer:
Well, the time I’m gonna talk to you about is when I saw a wallaby, which is a small-sized species of kangaroos, at the Wineglass Bay of Tasmania in Australia. Wallabies belong to the same family as kangaroos, but kangaroos are categorized into the six largest species in the world. When I saw this wallaby, I was actually on the way back to Tasmania from the top of Mount Amos, where the Wineglass bay was located, and when I was reaching the parking area, it just came out, asking for water and food. I have to say that the animals in Australia are not afraid of people. Instead, they will approach you, like what the wallaby did when it saw me coming down. It didn’t jump directly to me, but it creep slowly and looked at me as if it was begging for something to eat. It looked so lovely and interesting that I couldn’t stop falling in love with itat the very first sight. I took some nuts out from my pocket and gave some to the wallaby. It quickly came to me and started eating the moment it got them. It was a really cute animal, because looking at their hands, it’s like miniature version of our hands, and it was just so fascinating to see how it held stuff, you know, like how it clutch peanuts. I could tell that it had been starving for quite a while because it finished the nuts in a few seconds and wanted to ask for more from me. Therefore, I gave out all of my snacks, but you know what, it followed me all the way to my car until I told it that I had no food left. I finally returned Hobart, but I did miss the little angel and hoped that we might meet once again..
Describe a time you watched the sky
You should say:
When this happened
Who you were with
What you saw
And how you felt about watching the sky
Sample answer:
Well, what I’ve decided to talk to you about is the time that I watched a solar eclipse, which was pretty spectacular actually, because it was a total eclipse, not just a partial one. And I’d actually go so far as saying it was one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen.But anyway, as for when this happened, well I can’t actually remember when it was exactly, because it was quite a while ago, but I guess it was probably around three or four years ago, something like that. I do remember the time of day quite clearly though. It was late morning, sometime around 11:00, and basically, because it was such a big thing, you know, like a once in a lifetime occurrence, pretty much everyone left what they were doing to come out onto the street and watch it. So where I was standing, there must have been, like, a hundred of us all looking up at the sky to try and get a glimpse of the eclipse.
And it was incredible, because one moment the sky was bright and sunny, just like any normal day, and then the next, it went completely dark, you know, like, pitch black, when the sun disappeared behind the moon. So it felt pretty surreal, seeing the sky in darkness at midday for a few moments. And I remember I actually got goose bumps watching it, you know, I was in total awesome! It was just really, really cool to watch, and I’m sure I’ll remember it for many years to come.
Describe a street that you like to visit.
You should say:
Where it is
How often you go there
What you like to do there
And explain why you like it.
Sample answer:
Well, there are quite a few streets that I could have chosen to talk about, but I’d say the one I most enjoy going to is Hefang Street, which is somewhere in the center of my hometown, about fifteen to twenty minutes' drive from where I live. And as for how often I go there, well on average, I guess probably something like once or twice a month, which I know is not a lot, but unfortunately, I just don’t have enough time to go there as much as I’d like to.
Anyway, regarding what I like to do on this street, well most of the time I actually just go there for the street food, because there are loads of stalls which do really good food, like barbecued squid, lamb kebabs, chicken wings and stuff like that. So that's basically what I mainly go there for, and it's making me feel quite hungry just to think of it! And um, there are also quite a few little shops selling various souvenirs and handicrafts, but I don’t spend much time in them because most of the things are pretty overpriced. For example, a pack of postcards will probably set you back about 30 yuan or so, whereas if you went to one of the bookshops in the city, it would probably only cost about 10 yuan.
But anyway, in terms of why I like this street, well, firstly, as I mentioned just now, the food there is fantastic, but as well as that, I also like that fact that it's pedestrianized, so there's a lot of space to walk around without having to worry about getting hit by a car! And also, most of the buildings are pretty old, which gives the street a nice, traditional feel.
