Sample answer:
Two weeks ago, I bought a new motorcycle. I had not been planning to buy one but it popped up on my Facebook newsfeed because someone in a local group had listed it for sale. The bike was incredibly beautiful and also surprisingly cheap, so I bought it as a sort of impulse purchase.
Where I live, people often sell things on Facebook because there is an active community of people from around the world who have come to live here. You frequently see people selling their second-hand goods on various Facebook groups, and so I have subscribed to them and buy various things there from time to time.
Clearly, Facebook’s algorithm recognised that I paid attention to motorbikes that were for sale, and so it pushed me to take a look at this one. As soon as I saw it, I knew it was the one for me. The thing that really convinced me was the fact that it looks exactly like a motorbike I owned ten years ago. That bike was my favourite possession and I was really sad when I had to suddenly sell it just six months after buying it. I had promised myself that if I ever saw it again, I was buy it no matter what.
This new bike is not exactly the same but it is very similar, and that was good enough for me. In fact, according to bike experts, this one is even better than my first bike. I was a bit worried because there is a lot of crime in this area and I did not want anyone to steal it from me, but I decided that I would have to take the risk.
After buying the bike, I drove it around the local area on a beautiful sunny day and it really made me feel happy. I have planned many trips with this bike and, once the rainy season ends, I will take it on several long journeys around the country.
