Daily IELTS Answer – Describe a toy (Band 6.5)

Describe a toy that you were given

“I’d like to talk about a doll that my father gave to me almost 11 to 12 years ago, I really loved it, since it meant a lot and I always [dreamt about having] one of these dolls, because we would walk down the street and see it in the shop windows, and finally one day he bought it for me for my birthday. It was made in the UK and it was made of porcelain. I think it’s a lady from the UK or something like that, and it was… they made her with a green dress which I think it was used in a traditional ceremony in the UK, it also has [long, brown, curly hair] and I really like that since I don’t have curly hair. Last but not least, she has really long lashes which I think everyone loves. I still have it and I will take care of it until I pass it on to my future daughter.”

Verb + about + Gerund:
– [dreamt about having] (UK spelling / ‘dreamed’ = US spelling)
