Part 2 (Cue Card)

Talk about someone you know who has moved to a new accommodation. You should say

– who this person is
– when they moved
– where they moved to and why

and explain whether or not the move has had a positive impact on them.

Answer

Let me tell you about my cousin Sarah, she’s awesome! So, around six months ago, she snagged this fantastic job in the city and had to move. The place she found is this cute little apartment right in the middle of all the city buzz. You know, she used to live in our quiet little town, so this move was a big change for her.

She was super pumped about the new job. I mean, who wouldn’t be? The city life was a bit overwhelming for her at first, but now she’s loving it! One of the coolest things she did after moving was joining dance classes. She’s always been into dancing, and now she’s part of this groovy dance group in the city. It’s like a dream come true for her.

And the social scene in the city? It’s on fire! There are art exhibitions, music festivals, and loads of live gigs. Sarah’s practically at every event. Plus, she’s made tons of friends who share her love for dancing. The city’s diverse culture is like a melting pot, and Sarah’s totally soaking it in.

Seeing her thrive in this new environment is amazing. She’s more confident, so full of life. The change has been transformative, to say the least. I guess the city lights just suit her well!
