pulled 
over
and told us that there was a problem and that we couldn’t continue. We had 
to wait for another twenty five minutes or so for the next bus to arrive behind us 
and then we all 
got off
the first bus and 
got on
the second bus. The second bus 
already had some passengers on it, and with all of us from the first bus as well 
there was only room to stand. The whole experience was rapidly turning into 
something I was beginning to seriously regret. What had 
started out
as something 
supposedly fun and different was quickly becoming one of the worst trips ever. 
Eventually, we arrived i
n the city and I wasn’t really 
in a good mood
to go 
shopping so I stopped at a café to drink something and just relax a moment before 
heading to the shops.

had just waited until I had my car back; it would have been so much easier.

How it affects your life 
Where you get it from 
And how you feel about it

BAND 8.0 SAMPLE ANSWER:

way we judge ourselves fundamentally differs from other people do. Nonetheless, 
we all have our own idea about our own characteristics and I would like to talk 
about my honesty which is also one of the characters I find important and proud 
of. 
Honesty is a great virtue and I am 
in favor of
the viewpoint that if people could 
remain honest during the lifetime, they will be rewarded 
in the long run
. To be 
honest, honesty inside me leads me to do everything with genuine sincerity. 
Therefore, I am respected and adored by everyone and especially by my friends 
and colleagues. 
I think that I inherited this personal trait from my mother. In daily life, he also 
reminds me to be honest in every aspect of my life and I would
