Describe any public event (e. g. carnival, sports event, religious event, etc. ) that you attended. v. 1
Describe any public event (e. g. carnival, sports event, religious event, etc. ) that you attended. You should say: what the event was when you attended it with whom you went there and describe what you did at the event.   Model Answer 1: This is an interesting topic for me because I have attended several public events before, and I must say that I have enjoyed almost all of them. So, today, I would like to talk about an event, which I attended about 6 years ago, in order to raise some funds for the flood victims of my country. As I just mentioned earlier, it was a fundraising event, and I really felt very passionate about it as I also wanted to become a part of the noble effort. In fact, a significant part of my country was flooded in that year because of heavy monsoon rain as well as for some other man-made factors. Anyway, so when some of my friends asked me to attend the fundraising event, I immediately agreed. Initially, I didn’t think that so many people would be attending the event because of significant damage in the road and transportation system of that part of my country, where I lived, but I was proved to be wrong because thousands of people attended the event with all kinds of material helps and support. By the way, the organizers of the event held a public concert, which included some of the famous bands and singers of my country, and theatrical display of the sufferings and miseries of the people who were badly affected by the flood. At the event, a keynote speaker, who also happened to be a prominent social worker and member of parliament of my country, gave us an account of damage and destruction in my country, caused by one of the devastating floods in the history of my country. Anyway, as for what I did at the event, I already collected some dry food and clothes, before coming to the event, so that the people, in charge of collecting the relief funds there, could distribute them among the affected people. Besides, since there were not enough volunteer there to take care of such a large gathering, I helped the event organizers to clean up the mess, like trash and food wastes, after it was over.     Sample Answer 2: 2-3 years ago, I attended a sports event which was open to the public and I would like to talk about it. It was probably the month of January and I was a student at the university at that time. I heard that the Argentina Football team would come to our country and would play a football match against our football team. I was a fan of this football team (. . . mention any other team name which you like. . . ) and wanted to enjoy the football match. This was one of the most enjoyable football tournament I have seen live. Though I liked the Argentine team, I supported our team from the very beginning. I had to collect the ticket 30 days prior to the game day and on the day I went to the national stadium with some of my friends. The game started in the 3. 30 pm and I noticed there were more than 20 thousand spectators in the stadium. I attended the game with 4 of my friends plus roommates who were very close to me. We sat in the front row of the north gallery and we enjoyed the whole game. We shouted when our team did well, we showed our dismay when they performed badly. One of our friends took the national flag and he bore it during the game. We left the stadium in the evening and even though our team was defeated by the powerful Argentine team, we were happy that our team competed them well and performed quite good.   Similar Cue Card Topics Your ability to talk about this Cue Card would enable you to talk about the following Cue Cards as well: Describe a festival you attended.
