Band 8 Sample 

(When you visited it) During my last visit to Singapore, I had a chance to go to Gardens by the Bay, which is one of Singapore’s most attractive tourist sites. The attraction is divided into two parts, with one right behind Marina Bay Sands and the other across Kallang river, also known as Gardens by the Bay East.

(Who you went there with) It is relatively lucky that I got some local friends who brought me around. Although it was my 7th time to Singapore, I had never dropped by the attraction when I happened to be in the area. Hardly had my friends known that fact when they decided to bring me there without second thoughts.

(What you did there) This park is quite special as it is artificial yet bristle with a wide array of species of plants. Apart from that, there are some music-light shows every evening in which visitors can indulge in a world of music when watching the lights keep changing. So my friends made the most use of the park to introduce me about Singapore’s state-of-the-art technology and its efforts to conjure up a city in a garden.

(How you felt about it) I felt privileged to have the chance to visit this park as it was an eye-opening experience for me. Not only could I enjoy the freshness of the nature but also learn about the technology applied in the park and bringing Gardens by the Bay to another level.
