4 Sample answer
By simply looking at my
computer, you wouldn’t be able
to see how important it is to
me. It’s an inexpensive Toshiba
model and quite ordinary to
look at. If you started it up,
you’d find it user-friendly but
not particularly high-tech as it is
already two years old. So, what
makes it so special to me? Well,
a great deal of its sentimental
value comes from the fact that
it was an eighteenth birthday
gift from my parents. Since
then, it has become increasingly
important to me because of the
hundreds of photos stored on it,
along with all my friends’
contact details.

countryside that feature the
wildlife, fantastic landscapes

example. They don’t often
show a lot of detail about what
rural life is actually like. Is it

I think that living in the

really this depends on

at home, and it is often
cheaper.
The next thing is the
environment. Most holidays
abroad involve air travel, which
harms the environment. In
addition to this, tourism may
have an impact on the wildlife
of the local area. If you have a
holiday at home, you can
reduce your impact on the
environment by taking train
journeys, for example.
Finally, it can be more
relaxing. You don’t have to
worry about delays or long
waits at the airport and there
are no communication
problems. Sometimes when
you come back from a holiday
abroad, you feel you need
another holiday.
In my opinion, a holiday at
home is a good idea. You may
discover surprising things
about your own country.
