Band 9.0 Sample Answer
I'm not a great swimmer in any sense but swimming is like my religion. It istruly refreshing and literally, washes away every disturbing thought I havewhenever I dive into cold water. No matter how tight my schedule may get, I usuallypay at least one visit to a local swimming pool to work myself up andget rejuvenated.
Sometimes, I have a partner or two, who have been my best friends since high school. We live in the same neighborhood so it’s not too stressful when we haveto set a schedule for our swimming session. We carpool more often than not andit takes us roughly 15 minutes to get to the local recreation center whereit provides the locals with a variety of facilities for training purpose such as gymclass, stadium, swimming pool, tennis court and so on, which is extremelyconvenient for those who practice more than one activity. The only thing betterthen swimming itself is swimming with your besties, which is one of hundreds ofthings I love about my weekly ritual. Hardly do we have time to meet each otherduring week days as we're all up to our neck at work and totally stressed out.Therefore, having such a healthy way to catch up with my friends and rechargebattery after an exhausting week never sounds better. Just like any other sports,swimming helps maintain your health, keep you fit as well as build yourendurance. However, unlike others, it’s a very relaxing and peaceful form ofexercise, you don’t even sweat for hours – a supreme advantage. Therefore, ifyou’re looking for a kind of sport that brings you comfort and relaxation, swimmingshould be your first choice.

Band 9.0 Sample Answer
I'm grateful to have such a supportive and caring family who are always there forme no matter what. We have 5 members in the house that's always full oflaughter: my parents, my two sisters and me. Even though I love them all to themoon and back, my younger sister, Jade, is the one that's closest to me.
Jade is seven years younger than me, which might create some senseof generation gap, yet, we still get along well, or at least most of the time. She isin high school now and has a dream of becoming a doctor one day. In term ofappearance, we have little in common. By that I mean while I’m kind of tall,she's relatively short; while I take after my father, she's my mom's splittingimage. Same thing with our characteristics. I am people-oriented and a true freespirit, Jade, on the contrary, is quite introverted and into stability. Hence, it cameas a huge surprise when others acknowledge our strong bond. We're like 2 sidesof the same coin. No matter how different we are, we havenever neglected or abandoned each other. In fact, we are partners in crime inso many impulsive and silly acts that our family has lost count. Once, I triedto play the victim with my uncle as I accidentally broke a crystal vase that my auntadored, Jade backed me up as we put the blame on our poor cousin. Whata shameful act! But that was years ago and we learnt our lesson the hard way.Another time when my sister's teacher asked to meet our parents because Jadehad ditched class. In her defense, that subject was boring and I was the one whotalked to her teacher. In the end, Jade had to serve more time at the library andwe kept this from our parents and so were many other things. We got each other'sback and we always will because that's what sisters do and simply because I loveher.
