Решение по шагам
5 шаговChoose task 38.1 and begin with a general statement about the importance of preparing for New Year celebrations.
Report the main figures: tidying the house is chosen by 36% of respondents, decorating a New Year tree by 34%, and cooking traditional dishes by 20%.
Make comparisons: tidying the house is only 2 percentage points more popular than decorating the tree, while buying a new outfit is 31 percentage points less popular than tidying the house.
Outline a realistic problem, such as a lack of time before the celebration, and suggest dividing responsibilities among family members and making a schedule.
Conclude that preparing in advance is important because it reduces stress and helps people enjoy the celebration.
Sample answer for task 38.1: Preparing for New Year celebrations in advance is important for many people in Zetland. I have found some interesting data on the activities they consider the most important.
According to the table, 36% of the respondents prefer to tidy the house before the holiday. Almost the same number of people, 34%, choose to decorate a New Year tree. Cooking traditional New Year dishes is important for 20% of those surveyed. Much fewer respondents are interested in buying presents for friends and relatives, with only 7% choosing this activity. The least popular option is buying a new outfit, mentioned by just 3% of the respondents.
It is noticeable that tidying the house is only 2 percentage points more popular than decorating the tree. At the same time, cleaning is chosen by 12 percentage points more people than cooking traditional dishes and by 33 percentage points more than buying a new outfit. This may mean that Zetlanders associate a successful celebration mostly with a pleasant and comfortable home atmosphere.
However, organising a New Year party can be difficult because people may not have enough time to do everything. A good solution is to make a detailed schedule and divide the duties among family members.
In my opinion, preparing well in advance is essential. It helps people avoid stress, manage their time and enjoy the holiday with their relatives and friends.
