Presentation

同家庭休闲活动，修改的地方会标注出来
Well, I'd like to talk about hiking in Qingcheng Mountain with my husband.
Every summer my husband and I go hiking in the mountain near my hometown.
And this summer we went there on a weekend.
「I remember that day so clearly.」
We drove to the feet of the mountain and parked our car near the gate.
Then we started to climb.
The footpath to the top was full of trees and it was very quiet.
We were walking up the stairs and talking about our life.
It was one of the peaceful moments that I knew I would remember for the rest of my life.
Because my husband and I didn’t have much time together with each other.
He was working very hard to support the family, and so I cherish these moments.
It took us nearly 4 hours to reach the top.
And even though we had been there so many times before, we were still impressed by the view from the peak.
You might have heard about the beauty of Qingcheng Mountain.
We were very relaxed and satisfied with our yearly hiking there because it was family time for me.
「And I think that's the second reason why it was particularly memorable.」

Part 3

· Do people spend too much money on their birthday parties or weddings?

I don't「自嘲般微笑」
Well, I know that in recent years we can see all sorts of luxurious birthday parties or expensive weddings of celebrities or just rich people on the news. For celebrities, it could be seen as a business activity, to create opportunities to raise their publicity. And for rich people, I believe it is just their own business. As for me, I think to spend too much on these occasions are meaningless because they should be the moments of just friends or loved ones together, and share the moments of joy.
luxurious 这个词基本就是得分点

· How much do you think people should spend on their birthday parties or weddings?

As I have argued before, it should be a moment of joy, a moment of reunion with friends and loved ones. So I think it is reasonable to pay as much as needed, but no matter how badly we want the party or the wedding to be perfect, it should be affordable.
