Task 1 (Suggested Answer)
I am going to talk about Travel.

I think many people want to travel so that they can see what life is like in other places. Some people travel because they live in the city and they want to enjoy the countryside and people who live in the countryside want to experience city life. Some people travel to enjoy a sport such as skiing or to enjoy the sunshine and the sea.

To travel long distances people use aeroplanes, ships, trains and even coaches. Clearly, aeroplanes are the fastest method of travelling long distance. However, some people like to take their time and take in the sights enroute to their destination. People who take cruises can visit many places and relax in between on the ship.Trains and coaches offer people the opportunity to see the countryside.

Tourism can be both good and bad for a country. It is good because it creates jobs but it can be bad when the character of a place is destroyed or it becomes too crowded with tourists.

During my holidays I like to spend my time with my family.We don't travel to other countries but we do visit places of interest in our own country.
