Do I really know what to talk? Is it that important to answer all bullet points in the cue card? What can I jot down while taking a note? Remember that in part 2 you are always asked to DESCRIBE. Make sure you prepare good adjectives for each topic, make sure you can talk about your opinions and feelings, andthink about some examples or stories to make your descriptions more interesting. ■1PERSON – Describe… 1.1 a person who offered a clever solution to a problem 1.2 a business person you admire 1.3 a famous athlete 1.4 a foreign person that you like 1.5 a creative person you know 1.6 a family member that made you feel proud 1.7 a person you follow on social media 1.8 a person who contributes to the society 1.9 a person you like to spend time with 1.10 a person you met once and want to know more about 1. 11 an artist or entertainer you admire..

She is a good role model for me. Since she is 5 years older than me, I have got a lot learn from her. We have a lot in common in terms of appearance as we both have blond hair with green eyes. Sometimes people think that we are twins. And on top that, she is truly hard-working person who always does her best to succeed in each and every task she has. She has also got great sense of humour which attracted me at first sight during our first meeting. Even though she is quite stubborn at times, she seems to get on well with everybody just because of having advanced communication skills. When we hang out together we can do whatever we want like making fun of everyone surrounding us, riding a bike, going to the library situated in our university building to just observe bookworms.Sometimes the things we are doing seem pretty nonsense, but it feels ok to do so turn out to be adjectives describing negative traits feelings opinions Download 9.34 Kb.
