When you are asked to DESCRIBE an experience, using ADJECTIVES is ever so often the easiest thing to do. You can choose to focus on your personal first impressions, or the size, age, shape, colour, origin, material, taste, flavour, feel, texture, weather or any other aspect of the place, person, object or activity you are asked to elaborate on. You could also give specific examples of who you met and where or what you did and when using different parts of speech.
To help you practise describing a NEGATIVE experience, here is a gap-fill form for you to fill in. As you do the task, please remember that it is necessary to use strong adjectives with such adverbs as absolutely, and weak or neutral ones with very (very hungry, but absolutely straving; it is wrong to say X very appalling X). There are a number of adjectives that can be used with both very and absolutely, so ask your teacher for more explanation if you have not heard about this rule before.
To help you keep a record of what you you have practised, the form has been configured in such a way that after you have filled it in, it will be emailed to the address of your choice. You can choose to have it emailed to yourself or to your teacher for correction and feedback.
