Oral speech

Picture: Grandpa's Birthday Party

Type of picture: Multi focus point (1> scenarios)
1) Settings:
This picture depicts a scene at a birthday party. It looks like a birthday party of a grandpa. As I can see that his grandchildren is lining up to give him birthday presents. He is eighty years old as it is written on the banner. The living room is decorated with beautiful balloons. A buffet is held to celebrate. Many people were invited and they were helping themselves with the food. The grandpa was very satisfied with the party that was held for him.

Scenario 1: Normal
One of the grand children is giving a large present nicely wrapped up with wrapping paper to her grandpa. She is talking to her grandpa; I think she is sending her blessings. That is very filial of her. Her grandpa and grandma who is standing beside look very delightful.

It is important for the young these days to show their respect to the elderly. What the girl had just show is a very good example of what must young must do.

Scenario 2: Normal
The next to give the present at the queue is a little boy. He was distracted by the smell of the delicious buffet. He looked towards the buffet and was yearning to get a bit after giving the present as he looks hungry. The guest was helping themselves. The children were also there admiring the beautiful birthday cake.

Scenario 3: Wrong & consequence
Two boys also waiting to give the present standing at the end of the queue was snatching a present. I guess, maybe they are siblings and their parents only prepared one present for their grandpa, but both of them wants to give it, and so they are snatching it, hoping that they will get the present to give. Personally, I feel that they are being very childish fighting over a present. They can just give it together. That way, neither one of them will be angry or upset. If they continue fighting, they might bump into someone and that person might get hurt.

Conclusion:
I would like to attend a Birthday Party too.

  1. Good structure of the speech but loads of grammatical errors. "She is blessing her grandpa". What do you mean? Is this a direct Chinese translation? Actually you can write a little more in the PR. eg. It is important for the young these days to show their respect to the elderly...

    No past tense please. Please check.
