1. Mountain hiking (Sample)

Sample response:
This is a picture of the outdoors in a clear blue sky. In the middle, four people are
crossing the wooden bridge. All of them are wearing blue-colored tops with shorts and
are wearing backpacks. Of the four, two of them are carrying trekking poles. It looks
like the group tried to match their outfits for hiking. At the bottom, the water is
flowing over pebbles under the wooden bridge. In the back, a grove of trees is
planted on the hill. From this picture, I can see that the group is on their way to
enjoying pristine nature.

This is a picture taken at an outdoor fruit and vegetable market. A man with a white
cap, pants, and a brown short-sleeved shirt is skimming through the range of fresh
produce available. The man has his hands behind his back, holding two small white
plastic bags. Many kinds of fruits and vegetables are neatly displayed on the stand
with the prices written in blue on white paper. On the top, there is a sign for the store

Sample response:
This is a picture of a spacious restaurant. On the right, a server in a white collared
shirt with a brown apron is wearing a mask, a clear protective face shield, and
disposable gloves to serve the meal to the customer. On the left, another customer
with a light-brown collared shirt is having a burger and fries. The two customers are
sitting at the same table, but there is a clear acrylic divider between them. Behind
them, other customers are sitting at each table eating by themselves. In the back,
there are several indoor decorations, including the multiple orange-glow lights
hanging from the ceiling, indoor plants, and framed photos. From this picture, I can
see that this restaurant is operating under social distancing guidance.
