IV. ESSAY. (10 points)

Make an essay about the question below. (At least 80 words and above)

Based on your own observation, what do you think is the reason why people dance?

Dance is an activity that shows movements. Most people dance because we want to enjoy
ourselves and express our feelings such as joy, anger, or helplessness without saying a word. But
for me, I usually dance when I’m in a mood. I want to show or present it to others that I can
dance even if I’m not that good enough. If I’m sad, I want to be happy and release all the pain
that I felt. That’s why through dancing it relieves me. We dance because some people want to
present their talents. In celebrations there are fests, parties, anniversaries etc, and during that
celebration, we use to present a dance to show to the people that we give thanks. For many
people, dancing provides one of the most personal and effective means of communication.
