Describe a holiday you have taken.

You should say:

Where you went.

When you took this holiday.

How you spent your time.

And whether you enjoyed the holiday or not.

Here is a sample answer to this topic.

I always wanted to visit Xinjiang and last summer holiday, I went there with a group of my classmates from university. We travelled to Urumqi by train and stayed there for a week. The most important place we wanted to see was Heaven’s Lake and Tianshan, north east of Urumqi. This lake is amazingly beautiful as it is very large, the water is crystal clear and it is surrounded by pine trees on the hillsides around the lake. You can even see snow-capped mountains reflected in the lake, which makes the sight like a picture. We took lots of photos and when I looked at them I was surprised at the clear blue color of the sky and the water. The other impressive scenery in Xinjiang was the grasslands. I have seen pictures of this in television series, but it felt so special to be there and experience the openness of this country. We stayed with local people in their unique type of house. I’ll always remember how friendly and welcoming they were, and we really enjoyed the local food which they provided. It was a great
holiday which we all enjoyed.

Discussion

Q: What role does tourism play in a country’s economy?

A: The role that tourism plays varies between countries. Some places rely a lot on tourism, for example I know that Hawaii and Bali in Indonesia are places where a lot of tourists go.
