Band 9.0 Sample Answer.
I would like to describe a coat my parents gave me as a present on my 18th birthday. I must say that it is really smart and exactly to my liking.
The coat is made of cotton only and by a Vietnamese clothes brand. It is a knee-length black coat, which was in fashion at that time.
What I like the most is that there are two deep side pockets, so in winter, I always put my hands into those pockets to avoid the cold.
Besides, I can button the coat from top to bottom and it’s also got a decorative waist belt.
I am so fond of this coat that I usually wear it every winter. It fits me perfectly and makes me feel comfortable and warm, no matter how cold the weather is.
I keep myself warm by wearing the coat with jeans and boots, which match it well.
In fact, I have never thought whether it will be out of fashion.
As this coat is a gift from my parents, I treasure it a lot and – for sure – I will keep wearing this coat in the future.
