Describe a time when you were appreciated for something you did.
You should say:
- when it was
- what you did
- who appreciated you
and explain how you felt when you were appreciated for the thing you did.
[You will have to talk about the topic for one to two minutes. You have one minute to think about what you are going to say. You can make some notes to help you if you wish.]
Model Answer:
I try to help out people without seeking any appreciation or any other things in return. And, it is, of course, our human nature to appreciate the help, even though, not all of us show or display their appreciation explicitly. But, today, I would like to talk about a time when someone explicitly appreciated me for my assistance.
It happened about a few years ago, and my neighbour, Kim Lee, needed to leave the city for a few days in order to see his ailing grandmother.
To introduce Kim, he could easily be considered as one of the nicest neighbours one could ever hope for, and he lived with his family a couple of blocks away from my house in the same neighbourhood. Kim used to own and run his own small super shop which I used to visit almost every other day in order to buy different kinds of stuff. So, we had a very warm relationship with each other. Thus, when he asked me to watch after his house for a few days, I just couldn’t refuse.
Kim told me what exactly needed to be done, including picking up the newspapers from his front lawn every morning, helping his employees to open and close his super shop and turning the lights on of his house during the evening. He also asked me to spend a couple of hours at his house every day, if possible, and keep the “heater” in his house turned on in order to keep his house warm, as it was really cold at that time. Anyway, Kim left the city after giving me the instructions. But, when he came back after visiting his old and seriously ill grandmother, he didn’t forget to thank me with a very big smile on his happy face.
Even though I wasn’t exactly looking for any kind of appreciation from my neighbour, I felt really great and useful after his words of appreciation. I also felt that a little token of appreciation for our good deeds, from the people around us, would take our relationship even farther, a really long way.
