Describe a couple you know who have a happy marriage. v.1

Describe a couple you know who have a happy marriage. v. 1
Describe a couple you know who have a happy marriage. You should say: who they are how you know them what they usually do together and explain why you think that they are a happily married couple. [You will have to talk about the topic for one to two minutes. You have one minute to think about what you're going to say. You can make some notes to help you if you wish. ] Sample Answer: My parents are the happily married couple and in my opinion, they have the strongest bond I have ever seen. They are the iconic figure to me. People also admire them for their togetherness. They love to spend time together and never have quarrelled severely in their life so far. They are the evergreen couple to everyone around us. This cue card topic is nice and I love to answer it in brief. I know them from my birth. They are my mom and dad. I love them too much. They have cared for me and did a lot of things for me so far. But it took me a long time to know about them. After getting matured enough, I realized that they are the happy couple. They have been married for over 30 years and they have three children. I am the youngest one and the others are also established in their respective sectors. All of us respect them for their mutual understanding. They spend most of the time together. My father works for the government and my mother is a homemaker. Earlier, my mother used to be a school teacher before marriage and she gave up the profession and started her homemaking. When my father returns home after office, he spends most of the remaining time with my mom. Sometimes, they go out for shopping, cinema, and other recreational activities together. They are the happily married couple for some few reasons. The most important thing is that they have a mutual understanding. Before taking any decisions, they plan together and implement the plan smoothly. Moreover, they are peace-loving people. And they have passed rainy days together but never got split in critical situations. Even sometimes, they wait for one another during regular meals. So, I think they are a perfectly happy couple in their life and I think marriage as a divine bonding as I have seen them live in harmony and joy together. More Ideas to talk about this Cue Card/ Candidate Task Card topic: Topic: Describe a couple you know who have a happy marriage. 1. Mr and Mrs William have a very fortunate marriage. They live opposite door of mine at an apartment block here in Hamilton in New Zealand. They pass their times in different activities. They enjoy movies, go for shopping and much more tasks. They are happily married couples for some reasons. First of all, they have a deep sense of friendship and a great understanding between them. They always try to understand each other and act accordingly. 2. I know Mr and Mrs Rafique as a happily married couple. They run a departmental store in the apartment block I live in a residential area of Qatar. They usually sell things to customers and maintain other activities. They have been married for past eight years and have got two children. They do all the things together which has deepened their relationship. They understand each other and have been leading a happy life. 3. Mr Roberto and his wife Liliana are the best successfully married couples I have ever seen. I met them at a social party and then came in close contact with them for my business purposes. They have a small business in Edinburgh to import raw materials of manufacturing plastic materials. Both of them are deeply engaged in the business. They are a blissfully wedded couple because they share a strong bond. They love each other very much. 4. Mr and Mrs Adaline is the ideal married couple to me. They are my relatives and live in the same town in Dresden in Germany. They usually take part in various activities. They are a gracefully espoused and they have a very good communication. They express themselves clearly and thus no troubles can ambush them suddenly. They make decisions based on their necessities and help each other always. 5. Ulsan is a nice city where my maternal uncle and aunts live. They are a happy couple. In fact, they are considered as the idol in my family. They love to travel and have travelled to various countries together. They also have a commitment to them. This is the outstanding thing that everyone loves them. I believe the secret of their happiness is their commitment to each other.   Your preparation for the cue card topic - "Describe a couple you know who have a happy marriage.
