A young women with short hairs in blue dress is out for buying some fruits. She is looking down onto the pile of fresh pineapples. I think she is having a hard time to decide whether to buy a pineapple or not.

[@م.المروةالنجار]

These pictures shows a woman who tried to pick some fruit in the supermarket. Is seems to me that she looking down to chose one pineapple.

[@annabelletanady8709]

I would like to express my happiness to teacher Luke! You’re such a great human being, may your surroundings blessed you well. I’ve studied for the past two weeks by just watching all of your videos! (LITERALLY ALL OF THEM😋) I’ve got the 135 overall score - Literacy (140) - Comprehension (135) - Conversation (135) - Production (140) Although I was kind of scared about the scores but I guess it’s more than enought than what I’ve expected! Special thanks to you Teacher Luke, you guided us so well, specifically on the production section that people usually find kind of difficult (but I guess I managed to get a sufficient 140 score for it). I know my comment is too long, but I do hoped that people that were enrolling to this exam to be relaxed but prepared at the same time. In addition to Teacher Luke, you are a true hero for us! Keep doing this! You never know how people are so grateful for what you’ve create.

Thank you Teacher Luke! I am studying with your videos and hope to take the DET next week. Here is my answer: In this image there is woman wearing a blue dress and a pink backpack. She is shopping fruits in a supermarket. She is looking at the pineapples to her left and deciding whether to buy one or not. I think she is not going to pick any because they are still green. In addition, at the far center there are other people shopping too but the image is blurry.

1:07: *Describing an image* ・Describe like you are describing it to a blind person ・Be descriptive: mention action done, describe objects or people (tall man, round ball), describe the location in the image. ・Be short and precise and be able to type as fast as you can because you won't have much time. ・Learn introductory statements to begin your answer. ・Make a guess or predict: use phrases like "I think" or "It seems like" or "It looks like" ・Use correct spellings and punctuations like full-stop, question mark or exclamation mark. ・Use commas - to separate a series of nouns, adjectives and verbs. - with FANBOYS which separate two independent clauses. ・Leave time to check for errors. 15:12: *Practice test describing an image* 16:40: *Write about a topic*

Whenever it is given an option to choose one among the agriculture side or a business side I would surely go by former one. The reasons behind it firstly, approximately 75% of a community is depended on agriculture, and agri - products are mostly fulfil basic needs. Another reason is that any economy cant groom without progress in this field. So it is essential there must be more research plants for agriculture.

In my opinion the reason now a days people are living longer is due to their awareness of creating a better lifestyle and secondly their mental state. Living longer depends on these two things. A patently now we see that older people are more anthusiastic for living their lives than the younger one's.

[@latifaabdulaziz8176]

this picture illustrates that there is a young woman shopping in a supermarket, also we can see that the woman wearing a blue dress and small back bag which is means she comes from the university. in the middle of the photo there is a lot of fruit types, but she looks at the pineapples. in my opinion, the main reason for this woman to go there is she wants to cook something with pineapples.

Lesson 1 answers of photo 1 and 2. 1- This picture shows a women is buying some fruits. Right now, she is in supermarket and thinking hard about ripe pineapples rather buy them or not. There are some other fruits corners also and other peoples are busy in shopping. It seems that she may buy one or two pineapples. 2-In the picture a man is holding a yellow pen and writing on a notepad. On the other side of notepad there is also a laptop. It looks like that he is doing work on laptop and noting down some key points about the work.

Hi Teacher Luke! Thanks a lot for the great content. I have a question about description essay. You used many times same vocabularies like "implications" which was given at the statement.As far as I know, we need to change the words to their synonyms to show off our vocabulary in a lexical manner. But later on I saw that you mentioned this at the next part.I will take my exam in a few hours

Hi, you're right, you should use a range of vocabulary. But it doesn't mean that you are not allowed to repeat yourself. 😃 I hope the test went well!
