Cue Card Answer 2: 
My dad promised me to present me something special if I could attain the 
desired grades in the year ending exam of my college. Accordingly, I received 
the present and this is the best gift so far for me.
I was presented with a laptop and it was the greatest gift for me. It was a 
MacBook Pro for me which really was exceptional. I was extremely glad about 
the present and remembered the hard struggling days before the exam. In fact,

I was not a very good student and the results were average. So, the present 
was planned for me as a surprise from my parents for my success in the year 
ending exam of the college.
My dad bought the laptop for me. I was expecting something different, in fact, 
I was dreaming of a smartphone of a renowned brand. But I was surprised 
when I saw the MacBook box on my reading table. I am the only daughter of 
my parents and they were very happy with my special success. I got the highest 
score among the other students in the college. Before the exam, my dad 
advised me to study hard so that I could bring an unexpected result. I followed 
his advice and studied hard indeed. Usually, students do not follow any 
schedule before the exam, but I was unlike to them. I followed the daily 
routine strictly and attended the exam. The success was mine.
I received the laptop in the middle of the year, immediately after the first year 
ending exam of my college here in Pakistan. It was a surprise for me. My father 
is a businessman and remains always busy with his factory that produces 
ceiling fans. Initially, I thought that my father had forgotten about the present 
when the result was published. He promised me for the present but he was 
almost inactive to bring the present at home. Moreover, I was unaware of the 
present that what it would be. At night I returned to my room after supper and 
found an intact box of MacBook pro lying on my reading table. I realised that 
my parents did not say anything about the present to surprise me. I was too 
happy and hugged my parents with extreme excitement.
I have been brought up in restriction. Pakistan being a Muslim majority country 
follows the rules of Islam strictly. So, the scope of a liberal life, particularly for 
girls, is a bit unusual than the other countries. But I have no issues with those 
restrictions and I follow the rules and regulations perfectly. But, I have never 
received such valuable gifts before. Usually, people receive presents in 
different occasions, but we have fewer chances to observe such occasions like 
birthdays or any other anniversaries. As a result, there are no such attractive 
gifts for us. So, when I got the MacBook Pro, it was really bewildering for me. 
In fact, I have never received such a huge gift in my life. Hence I think it was 
the best gift of my life.
