IELTS Speaking part 2: Describe a party
1. Describe a time that you invited family or friends to have dinner at home or in a restaurant
2. Describe a party you attended before
One of the parties that I enjoyed a lot was the time when I invited my friends to my home for a small Christmas party last year.
Since I was living on my own, we decided to hold the party at my place. Each person would bring one dishes to the party and a small gift to play Secret Santa. Our group has five people, so we have five different foods which all tasted amazing. During the meal, we talked a lot about things that happened recently in our life. We also planned to have a group trip together sometimes in the future. After finishing the dinner, together we cleaned up the house. Here came the funniest part of the night when we played Secret Santa. I wrote down names of all five of us in a piece of paper, then we took turn to withdraw to see whose gifts we would receive. And we had to open the gifts in front of everybody; some of the gifts were very embarrassing but we had so much fun together.
Because we all work full time, it is rare for us to be together like this so often; thus I highly appreciated these moments. After the party, I and my friends all agreed to make it an annual event for our group.
2. Describe a party you attended before
One of the parties that I enjoyed a lot was the time when I invited my friends to my home for a small Christmas party last year.
Since I was living on my own, we decided to hold the party at my place. Each person would bring one dishes to the party and a small gift to play Secret Santa. Our group has five people, so we have five different foods which all tasted amazing. During the meal, we talked a lot about things that happened recently in our life.

2. Describe an important plant in your country

4. Describe an interesting part of your country
There are many interesting places that I want to visit in my country. One of them is the Hue Imperial Citadel.
Hue Imperial Citadel locates in Hue, a central city of Vietnam. It used to be the capital of Vietnam during the feudal society for many years. Now it has become one of the most important historical buildings in Vietnam. It is a huge complex with three circles of ramparts: Kinh Thanh Hue (Hue Capital Citadel), Hoang Thanh (Royal Citadel) and Tu Cam Thanh (Forbidden Citadel). The Citadel is a great combination of man-made design and natural environment. Within this walls, people can experience solemnity without losing the tranquility of nature. Standing over 200 years and consisting of more than 100 fascinating architectural works almost remained unchanged, the place represents a rich cultural beauty that everyone should visit to get a deeper understanding of the tradition and classical side of Vietnam.
As a Vietnamese, I feel proud seeing such a wonderful construction since it was accomplished by thousands of worker effort and skill. It is a timeless evidence of how good Vietnamese people were years ago.
