پاسخ نمونه بخش ۲:
I’ve had quite a number of achievements in my life that have been worthy of celebrating, but the one that sticks out in my mind the most is when I graduated from high school.This was the first big achievement I’d experienced, and it felt like it had been years in the making.
In the run up to my graduation I’d been seemingly working night and day to prepare for my final exams. I’d already gotten my coursework assignments out of the way, and they’d been submitted long before the deadline.
I’d felt really quite stressed preparing for my exams and was worried that I wouldn’t achieve good grades. This made me work even harder because I didn’t want to have to retake any of the tests.
These tests would in large part determine my future. They’d determine the universities that would be willing to accept me, and a good university would be a significant boost to my career and earning potential.
The final day was the day we received our grades. It was the day we had finally finished and could move on to applying to universities.
Surprisingly, the school wasn’t interested in organizing a graduation ceremony for us. A lot of the students were up in arms about this, and many parents were quite upset that their children wouldn’t be able to celebrate their achievements.
The school didn’t budge and claimed they didn’t have it in their budget.
A handful of friends and I took matters into our own hands. We raised enough money to rent a venue close by the school. Went spent ages organizing it and recruited the help of our parents too.
On the big night we held our own mock graduation ceremony and had more fun than we would have had otherwise. A few of our teachers came too and we all spent the rest of the evening partying.

پاسخ نمونه بخش ۳:
How do people in your country celebrate events? Do you think it’s different in other countries?
در کشور شما مردم چگونه رویدادهای مختلف را جشن می گیرند؟ به نظر شما با بقیه کشورها متفاوت است؟
Most people celebrate events with a party of some kind. It’s common for someone to celebrate a birthday, for example, in a bar or club. It’s an easy and relatively affordable way to celebrate without having the trouble of cleaning up at the end of the night. There’s already bartenders and DJs that will bring the night to life.
Alcohol is usually a core part of most parties in my country. This is also true for most other places in the world, but there are some regions where alcohol is banned. I suppose in these cases they’d find an alternative and would serve non alcoholic beverages instead.
I think there may be some other cultural differences too. Maybe in some cultures it’s expected that guests bring something to the party, such as food or beer, but in other cultures it would be considered taboo and the host would be expected to provide everything.

Why is it important for sports fans to celebrate when their favorite team wins?
چرا برای هوادارن فوتبال مهم است که پیروزی تیم محبوبشان را جشن بگیرند؟
I think a lot of fans become invested in the success of their favorite team. They’ve followed the ups and downs of their team, possibly for many years. They feel like they’re part of the team and when the team wins they feel elated and a sense of pride.
Applauding and cheering on their team can make an event far more exciting than if they were to just sit quietly and peacefully as a spectator. It can also help boost their team’s morale when they’ve scored the winning goal.
Personally I’ve never been to a sports match and don’t support any particular team, so I’m taking a stab in the dark as to why. However people love to celebrate together, and doing something with others, for example celebrating a win, is going to feel so much better when done with others.
لغات و اصطلاحات پاسخ نمونه
Invest (verb – خرج کردن وقت و انرژی و پول)To put a lot of money or effort into something to make it successful or achieve a result.

Example: The company has had its share of ups and downs, but it seems to be doing okay now.
Elated (adjective – به وجد آمده )A feeling of being really happy and excited, often because something has happened or been achieved.
Example: He was elated when his visa was approved and he could move to Canada.
Cheer on (phrasal verb – تشویق کردن)If you cheer someone on, you shout loudly in order to encourage someone in a competition.
Example: We’ll be there to cheer you on when the marathon starts.
Spectator (noun – تماشاگر)Someone who watches a public activity or event, especially a sports event.
Example: Crowds of spectators watched the parade.
Morale (noun – روحیه)The amount of confidence a person or group of people feel, especially when in a difficult or dangerous situation.

A stab in the dark (idiom – حدس الکی زدن)If you take a stab in the dark about something, you’re making a guess that isn’t based on your knowledge or experience, and it’s likely to be wrong. It’s also sometimes said as a shot in the dark.
Example: I’m not sure what the correct answer is, so I’ll just have a stab in the dark.
Do people prefer winning when they’re in a team or when they’re on their own?
آیا افراد پیروزی در تیم را ترجیح میدهند یا پیروزی انفرادی؟
I’d say both. People love to win regardless whether they’re on their own or whether they’re part of a team, and there’s pros and cons to both.
If someone wins when they’re competing individually, they may feel a greater sense of pride because they know that they’re almost completely responsible for their victory. They did everything, and can take one hundred percent of the credit.
However, I believe it would be more fun to win as part of a team. Most things are better done with others as humans are social creatures. Every member shares the same win and they’ll likely feel a greater sense of elation because they’re able to celebrate together.

How do young and old people celebrate their birthdays?
افراد پیر و جوان چگونه تولد خود را جشن می گیرند؟
I suppose it depends how young the birthday boy or girl is. If they’re a young child, they’re going to have a party with their parents and some of their school friends and neighbors. They’ll probably play some games that only young kids play, like musical chairs. They’ll eat cake too.
Young adults, on the other hand, are more likely to go to a bar or a club and dance the night away. It’s probable that they might get really drunk and would have a bad hangover the next day.
I think the older someone gets the less likely they are to celebrate their birthday. I think for many middle aged and older people it’s a reminder that they’re aging and getting closer to death. They may have a small little ceremony, but it’s likely they’ll place less of an emphasis on their birthday and instead want to spend time with friends.
