Did you learn to play a musical instrument when you were a child?[Why/Why not?]

Let me think……. oh!As a matter of fact I did.I learnt how to play the piano when I was 10.I don't really remember now as it was a painful experience for me.I still recall my mum forcing me to practice on this mini-keyboard for hours on end.I ended up getting stubby fingers because I practiced so much.And to be honest, I can't say I'm into classical music anyways.

painful experience　痛苦的回忆

stubby　短而粗的

for hours on end　连续多个小时

【答题技巧】

当回答第一部分(Part 1)问题时，我们不一定非要按照“回答、原因、展开”这个典型的中国学生三步走结构。

考生可以添加一些有趣的故事来表达观点。这样做能使考生的回答结构丰富起来，并且让考官看见考生能用高级的回答方法(能讲故事是表现高级语言能力的方法之一)。
