Question：Describe an important day in your life. Explain why it is important.

sample answer:

Answer 1:

When I was seven, I took swimming lessons during the summer at our local outdoor pool. I could swim okay, but was still petrified of the diving board. Multiple times, when class was over for the day, I stood on the end of the board and stared at the water, desperately wanting to jump-in. Finally, on the last day of swim classes, I was at the board once again. My heart was pounding, but I used that adrenaline to fling myself off the board. It was kind of awful! Water got up my nose and I sputtered, coughing, to the surface. Yet, I was so incredibly proud that I had jumped in the first place! My mom even bought me ice cream as a reward. I haven’t jumped off a diving board since, but I’ll always have the knowledge that I was brave enough to do it once!

Question:Watching TV is not a good use of time. Do you agree or disagree?

I have to say that I disagree with this statement. I feel like whenever people say that television is a waste of time or that nobody should watch it, they’re only thinking of the negative aspects of television, like really trashy reality shows or something. But at its best, television can be every bit as artistic and thoughtful as a novel or a great movie. Over the past fifteen years especially, there have been a great number of dramatic TV shows with rich characters and complicated, intelligent plot lines. Audiences can laugh, cry, and marvel at these television shows, while seeing the world from unexpected perspectives. It’s not brainless in the least!
