CELPIP Speaking Unusual Situation- Describe A Couch
Hey Mom,
I’m just in a furniture store right now, and I see a strange looking couch. I think you might like it. The seat and backrest of the couch are white with black spots — sort of like a cow. The armrests are really interesting. One of the armrests is the head of a rhino. It has a big horn, two ears, two eyes, and two nostrils. It actually looks pretty scary. The other armrest is the head of a hippo. The hippo’s mouth is wide open. You can see it’s huge teeth and the inside of its mouth. The couch has small black legs which look pretty normal. Anyway, I’m just wondering if you want me to buy it for you.
