Model Answer 2:
I live in an extended family in Sri Lanka. Many of the families have become 
nuclear now but mine is still a joint one. This is the tradition that my 
forefathers have been maintaining from an ancient past.
Though in this present age, the world is experiencing nuclear families, many of 
the groups in this country love to remain united with the family. And thus the 
families are larger. I am happy to be a member of this joint or extended family. 
There is a strong bonding among the family members. All the members are 
united on all issues. But there are sometimes disagreements and the elders 
come in to help to resolve the matters.
This is an extended family and so the number of family members is more than 
usual. We have about 25 members altogether. I live with my parents. I also 
have two other siblings. Besides, my grandparents also live with us. My 
paternal uncles live with their families as well. Each of them has sons and 
daughters. Besides, we also have a couple of relatives who often come to live 
with us and have become like the family members. So, this is really an 
interesting event to live with lots of people, spend time together and do the 
other things. But often I am in trouble while using the bathrooms. They remain 
occupied and you need to reserve your seat in the early hour of the day.
As a family, we all pass quality times. All the male members are busy with their 
occupational activities. Almost all of them are service holders and serves both 
in government and private offices. I am a student and my cousins are too. So, 
during the day time, it is not possible for us to be together. It is the night time 
when we meet together and discuss the events of the day. But the women of 
the family are the most benefitted people here. They enjoy themselves as they 
stay at home and perform the household chores. They are also helped by the 
domestic helps in cleaning, cooking and other activities. When everyone 
returns home, we take meals together, watch television shows and take part in 
many other activities.
My family is the most important thing to me. In fact, this is the place that has 
supported me so far to be a photographer. My parents, my grandparents, 
uncles and aunts – everyone has supported me when I was in distress related 
to my academic results. With their friendly inspiration, I crossed the

boundaries of the academic learning and now planning to be a professional 
photographer. This is the place where I share every of my emotions and this is 
the most important part of my life.
