PART 3: PICTURES DESCRIPTION - EXAMPLES
Consider the following tips:
- Describe the picture (what you see, how many people are there, what they are doing, guess the place)
Example:
There is a man in a car. he is wearing formal clothes because of the white shirt, he is probably wearing black trousers too. he looks smart and a
little angry, I think it is because he is waiting at the traffic jam, he will probably arrive late to his job. If I were him, I would be angry too.

-I can see many cars; they are probably stuck at the traffic jam. There is a man who is waiting in his car, he looks a little bit angry and worried. She
is probably worried about getting late to his job, etc…

-There are many cars stuck at the traffic jam, there might have an accident, that’s is why there is a huge queue. I can see a young man who is
formal dressed, he is probably on the way to his job. According to his facial expressions, he seems to be worried, maybe he is late for work.
