Now, class! I like to give you some instructions for joining in this year’s essay competition. So, have your pens ready. The topic for this year’s competition is “My Ideal City” and the following four questions must be answered. The first question is: Where would you build the city? Would you like it near the sea, by a river, or on an island? The second question is: How large would you like the city to be? It can be large, medium, or small, depending on your own choice. The third question: What would make your city special? Will it have many mountains to make it pretty? or will it have the fastest trains in the world? Finally, you’ll need to explain why this city is your ideal city. You can give as many reasons as you like. But you’re required to make at least three major points. The prize for this year’s competition is a free trip to Europe for a two-week stay. So start writing and good luck.
