2.7 Do you like any particular film star? Why?
I like Emma Watson, a British actress, model and activist. She is famous for her first
professional acting role as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter film series. What I love
about her is that not only is she an outstanding actress with admirable personalities but
also she is the spiritual inspiration as the UN Women Goodwill Ambassador. My favorite
quote is “I don’t want the fear of failure to stop me from doing what I really care about”,
encouraging me to chase my dream despite many troubles ahead.

3. Describe a piece of equipment in your home
You should say:
What it is

And explain why this item is important to you
The past few years is the golden era of advanced technology, and I suppose household
appliances are no exception. I’m going to describe the refrigerator as a household
equipment that I find most useful for my family.
My mom loves cooking and she’s actually a good cook. She’s mainly responsible for
shopping for healthy food and cooking scrumptious meal for all of us. And as a matter
of fact, our refrigerator is essential when it comes to food storage. Its size is perfect for
the corner area in our kitchen, yet big enough to store a large amount of food for the
whole family. We keep the vegetables and certain kinds of fruits at the bottom, whereas
the leftovers are kept on top. And some cakes that are made by my mom are kept cold
in the middle. As regards my family meals, fresh meat is a must. In particular I cannot go
a day without a single piece of pork or beef. Thus, the fridge has always done a great job
of keeping the meat and seafood fresh all the times. Besides, ice cream bought by my
dad every two to three weeks is also stored in the same freezer.
Refrigerator is a wonderful technological invention I must say. It is an indispensable
appliance for almost every household. Since the country possesses tropical weather and
particularly quite high outside temperature these days, it is difficult to keep the
vegetables or meat fresh even for a few days. I think down the line if I ever move away,
fridge is definitely on top of my must-have list.

QUESTIONS FOR PART 3
3.1. Has (the item you choose to talk about) changed much over the years?
As far as I’m concerned, innovations of refrigerators have taken place extensively in
terms of size, price ranges and quality in accordance with different usages. For instance,
while families prefer fridges that are large-sized and have high electric capacity, fridges
which are specifically used for laboratories are more advanced for chemicals storage.
