We often buy gifts for others and then there are times, we gift ourselves. Things that we know that are important for us, we buy them for ourselves. It could be a camera, laptop, books or for that matter even a dress. This time we are looking at a cue card that talks about an item that you recently bought and are happy about it.

Talk about a thing that you recently bought and are happy about. You should say –

• what was it?
• why you bought it?
• how long have you been using it?

also, explain, why do you think others must also have it.

SAMPLE ANSWER

For a very long time, I wanted to learn the art of photography. As a kid, I would rejoice clicking pictures from my parent’s phone or for that matter any body’s phone or camera. It was recently that I bought for myself a DSLR to learn photography. It is a Nikon D5300, with two lenses. The 18-55 allows me to shoot photos at a closer distance while the 70-110 helps me by clicking far off photos.

Apart from my keen desire to master photography, I have been a blogger for quite a long time and being a blogger, it is very important for our content to be plagiarism free. Adding to this, a blog with only content often leaves the readers disappointed and gives a sense of a book with only text. Something, most people do not prefer to. So, once my content started sounding genuine, I wished for better photographs. This could have been possible only if I knew how to capture moments. Or else, my work had to depend on someone else.

It has been 8 months since I got the camera and have been using it extensively almost everywhere. From the solo trips that I have taken to my office parties, from the friends gatherings to our crazy fun nights. The camera has helped me in capturing the moments of life in a more beautiful way.

Owning a camera teaches an individual multitude of things. The most important of which I believe is how to see things differently. When one clicks different photographs of the same thing, he or she realizes the different sides of the same thing. Also, I believe one must learn as many skills as he or she can in their lifetime.

Gifts do form an important part of our lives, they not only make us feel special but sometimes give us gifts indeed that become life changers. For example, Anne Frank on her birthday received a diary, now that diary turned into the best seller. It became a memoir of the times when Hitler ruled Germany. This time we are looking at a cue card that talks about a gift a person gifted you as a child.

You should spend 20 minutes on this task.

Describe a gift that you received as a child. You should say –

• what was it?
• who gave it to?
• how you used it?

also, explain, why it was special for you?

SAMPLE ANSWER

Birthdays have been really special for me, they told me the number of people who loved me. But, for me, the best gifts have been the ones that were without any reasons. One such gift that I got as a child was that of a diary and a pen. It was gifted to me by my brother on Rakhi. It was a nice diary, the one with colorful pages and the pen had an elite favor.

I remember, a note on a page it was written, for your love of writing, I wish you write more and write well. I have writing diaries since then and improving my skill. It has been around a decade since I first started writing and sometimes when I look back upon those writings it really makes me feel good. Good for the journey that I have traversed in all these years.

That first diary, I remember writing all the new stories that I had in my mind for myself. Sitting across my window, it was beautiful. I still have that diary with me. The reason, it is very special for me is because it just showed a new aspect of me as an individual. I could write, that is beautiful for me.
