Model Answer:
During the last summer, in 2015, I went to Greece with my parents and other family members, and had a
long walk on the Olympus Mountain range. The walking lasted for about three and a half hours.
We walked through the entire range and enjoyed the natural beauties of the local areas. The mountain is
considered as the second highest mountain in the country and also admired by both the local and
international travelers for its association with the Greek mythology. Many events have taken place in the
mountain and it was the residence of 12 Gods of Greek mythology. But currently the hiking route and
the natural beauty is the key attraction for the travelers. The walking routs contained large croplands,
peaks, places for collecting foods and other necessary materials etc.
We started the walking using the international hiking path at the E4 starts and the walking ended at the
Enipea springs. The entire walking distance was about 1100 meters. During the walking passage, we
experienced some stunning natural scenes. The walking trails were marked clearly and there were many
ascents and descents across the entire route which made the walking more enjoyable. When we started
the walking, the river was left to us and we crossed some beautiful bridges made with wood. We also
paid a visit at the Agios Dionysios Monastery, a beautiful place. The views of the Enipea waterfalls are
breathtaking. Though there were some troubles to ascent and descent on the trail, the entire walking was
enjoyable to me.

I was accompanied by my family at the walk. The family members contained my parents,
my elder brother and sister and my pet dog. We reached at the entrance with a car and
then started the journey. It was interesting for me to walk such a long distance but all the
other members could not enjoy like me. As I regularly participate in my college sports, I
am physically more fit than the other members. Consequently, my parents and the elder
sister had to experience some troubles. They were lagging behind often and could not
keep pace with me and my elder brother. Besides, they just took breaks after every ten
minutes with the excuse to drink water. However, it was a nice journey for us all.
It was my long desire to go for a long walk or hiking in the mountain. I have many
experiences to walk in flat lands but walking inside a mountain trail is newer for me.
During the walk in meadows, I did not have to undergo any stress but in this mountain
walk, in fact, I had to take some stress like the other family members. They stopped
frequently, but I controlled myself from the taking regular breaks, Moreover, the ascent
and descent of the geographical structure also had some impacts on my body as during
the upward slopes, I had to rely on the stick on my hand and sometimes I extended my
hand to my mom while my elder helped my sister. When we reached at the waterfalls,
everyone seemed to be relaxed as the journey was over.

(2)Describe an unforgettable advertisement (that you saw or heard).


You should say:

what kind of advertisement it was

what the content of the advertisement were (or what product or service was advertised)

where you saw or heard it

Model Answer:
It was an attractive advertisement of a US based soft drink commonly known as 7up. It tastes lemonlime and non caffeinated as well. The advertisement is about the soft drink and how it is able to attract
even a half-drawn cartoon. It shows that a young lady was sitting at a formal situation and she was busy
in drawing a cartoon. When she was served the 7up, she stopped drawing the cartoon. But when the
cartoon character sees the 7up, it draws itself and also draws a glass so that the lady could pour him the
7up. The advertisement was partially live and partially animated. The part of drawing is live. A woman
is sitting alone. She has nothing to do, so she starts drawing a piece of cartoon after her will. This is the
live part. The animated part in the advertisement begins when the half-done cartoon starts drawing. The
advertisement ends with the appreciation of the cartoon as it has got the drink finally.

I saw the advertisement on television. When I was kid, the advertisement was televised regularly. I cannot recall
the exact dates and times but as far I remember, it was the 1990s when the advertisement was aired. It was a
popular advertisement and thus it was aired amid different programmes during the peak hours. But interestingly,
before watching the advertisement, it heard it from one of my elementary school friends who watched the
advertisements. It was he, Smith, who helped to be familiar with this specific advertisement. In fact, after being
familiar with the advertisement, I waited eagerly to watch the advertisement. It was one of my favorite
advertisements in my childhood and even I miss it today.
The content of the advertisement was the promotion of a soft and non-alcoholic drink, 7up. The origin of 7up
goes back to the USA. In 1920, the drink was created and the lemon-lime formula appeared in 1929. Originally
it was named as Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda. It was also considered as medicine for stabilizing
peoples mood. Many of the people with bad moods have used it as medicine to improve their mental stability.
The brand has experienced numerous ups and downs. It has been sold several times from groups to group. There
are a good number of variations found for the drink but many of the users have opined that 7UP Lime is the
best.
Usually the children remember anything they see or do in their early age. In most of the cases it has been found
that they can recall the past incidents more than the adults. When I was a kid of 7 years, I was exposed with the
advertisement. At that time, watching the advertisement was a kind of entertainment for me. Sometimes I also
tried to draw cartoon and kept a bottle of 7up near me believing that the cartoon will start drawing itself. But I
was wrong and the cartoon never drew itself on the page as it did on television. Being a child, I had no idea then
that everything we seen on television were not real. So, I felt sad and discussed the issue with my friends who
laughed at me for my obsession. For all such reasons, the advertisement has set itself in my mind. I have seen a
good number of advertisements but did not care for them. As a grown up man, I now believe that everything we

see is unreal. There are always some hidden issues. But as I have lots of memories with the specific
advertisement, this is unforgettable to me.
