You have just come back from a holiday. Write a letter to an English-speaking friend. In your letter:
- say where you went and what you did
- describe something you really enjoyed
- invite your friend to go on a holiday with you in the future.
Dear Alex,
How are you? I just got back from my holiday, and I want to tell you all about it!
I went to Coral Island with my family. It is a small island not far from the city. We took a boat in the morning and arrived there before lunch. The trip was so relaxing. We walked on the white sand beach, swam in the sea, and saw many beautiful fish. My favourite part was the visit to the north side—we even saw sea turtles! The guide was very friendly and told us interesting stories.
I really enjoyed the whole day. The picnic lunch was nice, and the weather was perfect. In the afternoon, I bought a small turtle souvenir for my sister.
I think you would love this place too. Would you like to go on a trip together next month? We could go to the beach or the mountains. Write back and let me know!
Take care,
Sam

Part 2 · 提示卡
Describe a holiday you remember well. You should say: where you went; who you went with; what you did there; and explain why you remember it so well.
I'm going to talk about a holiday I took two years ago. I went to a beach town called Sandy Bay with my best friend. We stayed in a small hotel near the sea. It was not expensive but very clean and comfortable. Every morning we walked on the beach and collected shells. In the afternoons we went swimming or just sat in the sun. One day we took a boat trip and saw dolphins. That was the best part. I remember this holiday so well because it was my first trip with a friend, not family. We felt very free and had so much fun together. Also, the sunsets were amazing—we took many photos. I still look at them sometimes and smile.
People enjoy holidays because they can take a break from work. Travel helps them see new things and learn about other cultures. Also, it is a good time to be with family or friends.
💡 从工作休息、看新东西、与亲人相处等角度回答,给出两三个原因。
Q: Is it better to travel alone or with friends?
I think both are good. Travelling with friends is more fun and you can share the experience. But travelling alone can be more peaceful—you can do what you want. For me, I like a mix.
