Individual long turn
Part II Individual Long turn
Describe a present you have given someone.
You should say:
❑ Who you gave it to
❑ What kind of present it was
❑ How it compared to other presents you have given
Explain why you decided to give this particular gift.
Part II Answer
The person that I gave it to was a very good friend of mine at the time. His
name was Kaaliya and he came from India. I knew him because we studied
together at a language school in Cambridge. Although we were from
different backgrounds and cultures, we got on really well and we had the
same sense of humour so we became very good friends.
The present was a picture that had been painted of the River Cam in
Cambridge. It was not so big - maybe around 10 inches by 14 inches, but it
was very beautiful. It came in a gold plated frame and the picture had been
drawn by a particularly well-known Cambridge artist. It had been signed by
this person as well. It’s the first time I have given this person a present, and I
guess it’s quite different from presents that I have given to other people
before – I don’t recall ever giving someone a picture actually. If I’m buying for
family then I’ll usually buy clothes or maybe some jewelry if it is a special
occasion. Normally when I’ve bought something for friends it’s something
more jokey so we can have a laugh about it, nothing that serious.
Part II Answer
The reason why I decided to give this particular gift is because we had
spent a lot of time together in Cambridge and we had had some really fun
times punting on the River Cam – that’s obviously why I thought this was an
appropriate present. We used to go punting at least once a week, sometimes
a couple of times. On one occasion there was a group of about ten of us that
went down there, and we spent the whole day sitting by the river in the sun
and as usual we went on a boat trip together. We all have a lot of photos to
remind us of this great day.
So my friend, Kaaliya, is the person that I gave a present to and this was
because I felt it would always remind him of the fun times that we had and
also of Cambridge.
