Part-2 (Cue Card)
Describe a journey (for example by car, plane, boat) that you remember well.
Answer: As per necessity, I have to have different types of journeys either by car, plane, or boat. Now I would like to describe a memorable journey, which I still cherish. Last year on Eid vacation, my three friends and I decided to visit Sylhet by car. Early in the morning, we started for Sylhet by my Toyota car. Generally, during Eid vacation, the roads and highways remain almost free. As a result, our car was running with preferable velocity (speed). We four friends were driving the car in turns. Every two hours we stopped the car in front of a restaurant to have some food and to take some rest.
While the car was plying (running), we were singing different types of songs, we were shouting with joy, and we were making a lot of jokes. We were really very cheerful and joyful throughout that car journey. When our car entered Sylhet district, we found the unique beauty of the verdant (green) tea gardens. Wherever we looked, there were only green tea gardens, grassy landscapes, and lush (dense) vegetation (forest). It was a totally noiseless area, and there was only peace and tranquility there. In fact, that amazing feeling is beyond description. During that journey, I fully realized why Bangladesh is called “Beautiful Bangladesh.” After having an eight-hour car journey, at last we reached Sylhet city. Undoubtedly, it was an unforgettable (memorable) car journey for me.
