Describe the place itself 2. Describe the buildings 3. Describe the people 4. Describe the weather and food 5. Give a concluding point. A big place: how to answer? Use opening sentence to describe the location. Then describe the scenery and give a reason why you want to visit. For example: The place/city I really want to go in the future is New York which is the center of universe/which is a dream city for many people. Ø Use adjectives to describe a big place and its scenery: Cosmopolitan /Enormous/Mind blowing/exceptionally beautiful/outstanding/spectacular/ancient/peaceful/hectic /the life is exciting/ entertaining/multicultural. Ø I want to travel to New York mainly for three reasons. Firstly, …. Secondly, … Finally, …. The place itself Ø Magnificent Ø Ancient Ø Impressive Ø Spectacular Ø Unique Ø Outstanding The main reason why I want to visit X is because of its magnificent buildings. There, you can see both modern skyscrapers and ancient buildings which are of international importance. They all take your breath away. There are a wide range of entertainment places like bars, galleries, night clubs if you want to to have fun. There are cafes if you want to have a light snack or if you want to have a big lunch then you can visit restaurant. which suit every taste and wallet. And the standard of food is very high. It is better to stay in a hotel locate by the sea rather than in the center. First, you can enjoy the spectacular view through the windows and second it is much more affordable. The buildings People can be: Ø People are welcoming/supportive/friendly Ø Unfortunately the locals are always in a hurry and not welcoming Ø The people will give you a warm welcome no matter who you are or where you come from Ø Another reason why I like it is that the people are open to talk/ sociable and ready to help. Ø Because it is a democratic city, there is a freedom if speech. I like the way how people there can express themselves freely/openly. Ø People are close knit The people Ø There is only one thins I don’t like about it. It is its weather. Ø There is rain all year round Ø It is too hot (boiling hot) in summer and freezing cold in winter. So the best time to visit is in spring when the cherry trees are in blossom. Ø It is always a good time to visit X. This is because the weather is neither too hot or too hot all year round. Ø The best way to see the city is by bus/train/ferry as it’s slow and you can enjoy the view. Ø There are both national and international restaurants in the city. They are so diverse that they fit every taste and wallet. Ø The local cousin is exceptionally delicious that it melts in your mouth. Ø The standard of food is very high. The weather and food Ø In short, visiting X/travelling to X would be the realization of one of my dreams. Ø I think X is a worth visiting place at least once in a lifetime. Ø On the whole, X is a place where I see my long term future. Ø I’m going to stay for only two weeks. I would stay longer, but it would be too expensive/ beyond my budget. Ø If I had a chance, I’d visit there once more. This time I’d take my family with me. Ø We left there with unforgettable experiences. Ø We had fireworks and It was the best way to end the evening. Ø I think X is an ideal place to escape from real life problems. Concluding points Ideas: Ø Your bedroom or kitchen Ø Use PP tense (I’ve had this room since I was a kid) Ø I share my bedroom with my brother/ with my 2 other siblings. Ø I used to share it with my elder brother. Fortunately last year he got married and moved to a new place. Ø It’s size: It’s not very big I would say 20 square meters. 5 meters by 4. Ø Use comparisons: Of course it isn’t as big as my brothers room. (Of course it isn’t the biggest room in our house) Ø Describe decorations: - It’s fully furnished with all creature comforts/with high tech equipment Ø It has stripped wallpaper Ø There are posters of my favorite singers on the wall. Ø There are two large windows – I can see a typical urban landscape. ( can see spectacular views of the mountains) Ø How much time you spend – I spend as much time as possible. Because this is the only place that I can relax after a hard day of work. Ø It is the center of the house where everyone gathers at the table and discuss our day Ø Unfortunately, there aren’t any posters on the wall A small place The place I'd like to visit in the future is definitely New York. You know it is the center of the universe. At the moment I'm quite busy, but I think I can travel sometime in the mid-August. Cause I think it would be the ideal time. There are a lot of reasons why I chose New York as a holiday destination. First of all, I've never been there. So, I'm sure it will be fun and there is a lot for me to entertain myself. Although I haven't been there, I'm quite aware of its culture, its fast pace of life and reputation for its skyscrapers because I have done some research and watched some Hollywood movies as well. I think I won't stay for long, maybe 2 or 3 weeks. I would stay longer, but even this short period of time would cost me 4 or 5 thousand dollars, so I can't afford more than that. For me the best thing about it is its national park which is slap bang in the middle. And as you expected, I'm going to travel alone, I think I don't need a companion, just me and my rucksack. So far, I haven't planned everything in detail, but I guess the best way to travel is by bus as they are usually slow and as a tourist you can explore the city. On the whole, I think New York is a dream city that is worth visiting at least once in a lifetime. A city you would like to live for a short time A few months ago, me and my friends visited a mountainous area called Zomin. Although It was our usual destination as a child, It was quite a long time since we last visited. But this time we were shocked by the pollution in the area. Many years ago, the area used to be unspoiled where very few tourists would come. Unfortunately, it wasn't the same as it used to be. The spectacular green area which was imprinted in my childhood memories was now very polluted, lots of trees were cut down and the river was contaminated with toxic waste and plastic bottles which are not biodegradable. It was obvious that tourism was responsible for all that mess. As an environmentally friendly person, I felt so sad about it and therefore wanted to make my small contribution to bring life back to the area. That day, me and my friends spent a few hours to collect the waste on the ground picked all plastic materials which harm the environment. What made me really pleased was that the locals and other tourists showed their support and helped us to plant some trees. We worked till pitch dark and I was physically exhausted but emotionally satisfied. A polluted place The place I enjoy spending time in my house is definitely my bedroom. I’ve had it since my early childhood. Before, I used to share it with my elder brother and we suffered from a lack of space, but things changed as we grew older. Now, he’s married and moved to a new place to live, so the bedroom is all mine now. When it comes to its size, I wouldn’t say it is as big as other rooms in our house, about 20 square meters, but its cozy and I like it. There is my study desk in the corner with my laptop on it and there are some posters of my favorite singers and football players. But the thing that I really like about it is that there are two large windows through which I can see the breathtaking view of the city. There aren’t many high tech gadgets in my bedroom, but it’s fully furnished and the decorations are amazing. These days I’m spending most of my time at university, so I only spend my evenings in my bedroom. I guess it’s the only place that I can have a rest after a hard day of study. Describe a place in your home For me the perfect place to live is somewhere away from the city center. Because I’m fed up with hectic life in the city as there is too much noise that comes through the windows of our apartment. So, my ideal house to live should locate in the countryside where there is a peace and tranquility I need. But at the same time it must be quite luxurious with all creature comforts. I mean the facilities. There should be a public school, hospital and other facilities in a walking distance. But the most important thing it should be by the sea. I really want to see the spectacular view of the sea through my bedroom window. When it comes its size, it would be great if the rooms are large in size. Cause we have always lived in a tiny apartment and suffered from a lack of space. Now, I share my bedroom with my two younger brothers. And whenever I’m doing my homework, they disturb me listening to music. So, I really want to have a separate room for each of us. I’m fed up with sharing my items and clothes with my siblings. Besides, I want my mum to feel pleased and the only thing that can make her happy is fully equipped kitchen. She always dreams of having one. I wish we lived in such an ideal house. An ideal house or apartment to live I’d like to describe a shopping mall which has recently opened in my hometown. Although it’s been only a few month since it was opened, it’s gaining good reputation in the area. This department store consists of two floors and the basement. Since its first day, I’ve become a frequent visitor as the facilities and the services are exceptionally good. What I really like is to have lunch with my colleagues on the second floor, because there is a cafeteria and the playground for children. On the ground floor you can find boutiques which sell designer clothes and surprisingly they are reasonably prices. Sometimes they offer discounts and on special days like “Black Fridays” you can buy items and clothes at a reduced price. Another good thing about it is that if you don’t like your purchase you can claim for a refund or exchange. You know these kinds of services are not available in every store. As for me I usually visit with my friends if I want to buy clothes, because it is much easier to choose if someone give advice. The building itself is magnificent and the architecture is unique and this makes it stand out. In short, it is a good place to relax after a hard day of work. Describe a new shop Download 471.79 Kb.
