示例答案
I would like to talk about the time when I went river rafting for the very first time, and how that thrilling experience gave me a rush of excitement I will never forget.
What the activity was?
The activity was white-water river rafting, which involves navigating a fast-flowing river in an inflatable boat while working as a team to steer and balance. I had always seen videos of people doing it, but I never thought I would have the courage to try it myself.
When and where you tried it?
This happened about two years ago during a trip to Rishikesh, a beautiful town in northern India famous for adventure sports. It was the summer holidays, and I had gone there with a group of close college friends. We wanted to do something adventurous instead of just sightseeing.
Who you were with?
I was with five of my college friends, including my best friend Rohan, who was the one to convince me to join. We booked a guided rafting session with an experienced instructor who gave us safety gear like life jackets and helmets.
Why it was exciting?
At first, I was nervous because the river looked powerful and the sound of rushing water was intimidating. The moment we pushed off, the raft started bouncing on the waves, and cold splashes of water hit my face. The adrenaline rush was unbelievable.
We had to paddle in perfect coordination while the instructor shouted commands. Every time we crossed a rapid, we cheered loudly, feeling a mix of fear and pure excitement. By the end of the 10-kilometer stretch, I was completely soaked but filled with a sense of achievement.
Conclusion
This experience taught me that stepping out of my comfort zone can be incredibly rewarding. River rafting not only gave me a thrilling adventure but also strengthened my friendship with the group, because we worked together as a team and shared an unforgettable memory.
