1. You indicated in the survey that you go to parks with adults. Tell me about the kinds of parks that you like to visit. What do the parks look like?
- I love natural parks because they feel so peaceful and relaxing. There are lots of trees and flowers, and sometimes you can find small lakes or ponds. I enjoy watching ducks and birds there, and walking around in nature makes me feel calm and refreshed.
- I also like modern city parks. They’re more lively and fun. For example, some parks have nice cafes, bike rentals, or playgrounds. And some parks have open-air theaters, which is great if you want to spend time with friends or see a open-air performance.
- I like both kinds of parks because natural parks help me relax and enjoy nature, while modern parks are exciting and full of activities. Both make me feel happy in different ways.
2. Describe what a typical visit to a park is like for you. Tell me about the things you do and see at parks.
- First, I like to take a slow walk around the park and look at the trees, flowers, and small ponds. It really helps me relax and enjoy the quiet atmosphere.
- After that, I often sit on a bench. Sometimes I read a book, and sometimes I listen to the sounds around me, like birds or the wind.
- If I’m with friends or family, we usually bring some snacks and have a small picnic, or we play simple games.
- I also enjoy watching other people in the park, such as kids playing, people jogging, or someone walking their dog, because it makes the park feel lively.
- Overall, whenever I visit to the park makes me feel calm and refreshed, it’s a great way for me to clear my mind and enjoy nature.
3. Tell me about the last time you went to a park. Which park was that you went? Tell me everything you did from it? When was the moment you arrived at the park to the time you left.
- The last time I went to a park was last Saturday afternoon with my girlfriend.
- First, I went there with my girlfriend because we wanted to enjoy the sunny weather and to spend some quiet time together.
- When we arrived, there was a small festival with music and people selling handmade crafts. We decided to join a painting workshop for couples, which was really fun and a little challenging.
- Then, suddenly it started to rain lightly, but instead of leaving, we ran to find cover under a big tree and laughed together while sharing an umbrella.
- Later, we walked along the river and enjoyed the peaceful scenery after the rain.
- That day was special because it was unexpected, fun, and brought us closer together.
4. Tell me about a memorable experience you had at a park. Maybe there was a special event, or maybe something unexpected happened. Begin by giving me some background about when and where it was. And then, give me all the details about what happened.
- I first started going to parks when I was a child because my parents wanted me to spend more time outside. Back then, I enjoyed playing on swings, running around, and exploring the trees and flowers. It was a fun way to be active and enjoy nature.
- Now, my reasons for going to parks changed a bit. Now, I usually go to relax, exercise, or spend time with friends and family. Sometimes I go alone to read, think, or just enjoy the fresh air. Other times, I go with my girlfriend to walk, have a picnic, or just enjoy being together.
-Overall, parks have always been a place to feel calm, happy, and refreshed, and that’s why I continue visiting them regularly.
