Question Type 1: Basic Description Questions

Object 12: A gift or present you have received

Describe a gift or present you have received.

You should say:

What the gift was

Who gave it to you

Why they gave it to you

How you felt when you received it.

Suggestion

Use the same content as Object 5: An item of clothing or jewellery. Say that one of your family members gave you this old piece of family jewellery as a birthday gift or graduation gift.

Object 13: Something you bought which you were not happy with

Describe something you bought which you were not happy with.

You should say:

What the thing was

Where / When you bought it

Why you were not happy with it

What you did about the situation.

Suggestion

The best way to deal with this topic is to focus on the problem and solution rather than the actual object. Use any object from the previous topics (e.g. computer or mobile phone) and focus on the reason why you were not happy with it.
