Model Answer:
I think that it is important to have some necessary equipment at home because we just never know what we would need them for and when. My home also carries some such equipment and today I will try to talk about one of them.
The equipment, I have chosen to talk about, is called a “coffee maker”. Of course, we all know what a coffee maker really is, and what it really does. But, this coffee maker is certainly no “ordinary” equipment since it has been serving its owner uninterruptedly for well over 5 years without any major sign of wearing and tearing! Now, how many coffee makers can actually do that! Well, the answer obviously is “not too many”! So, what can possibly be the reasons behind such robust performance?! Well, the answer is, again, it is made by a very top-notch electronics company in the world, and my family paid a very considerable amount of money to purchase it.
Of course, by now, you are probably thinking that I am praising our coffee maker just a bit too much, but you would also probably do the same thing if you were in my position. After all, wouldn’t you also do the same thing if your coffee maker was being used at least 10 times a day by 10 different people to brew coffee for at least 20 people almost every day?! And here I am not even counting the number of guests who treat my home like a “guest house”! But, I guess, you already got the idea.
Anyway, I do think that this equipment is indeed important for my home because it helps all of my family members to relax and enjoy whenever they wish. It also helps us to quickly serve many of the guests, who visit us quite often, even when my family members are busy. Finally, it always helps bring all of my family members together over a cup of coffee like a true family.
