Describe a time when you were looking at the sky.
You should say:
when and where you looked at the sky
who you looked at sky with
how you felt when looking at it
and explain why you looked at the sky.
I don’t often take much notice of the sky, unless it’s a particularly lovely day and the weather is beautiful, with a clear blue sky. I live in a big city, so during the day the sky is usually grey due to pollution caused by cars and factories, and at the night it is glowing because of light pollution, so you can see the moon but hardly any stars.
The one time of the year I make a special effort to look up at the sky is Mid-Autumn Festival. Mid-Autumn Festival occurs during the 15th of August in the Chinese lunar calendar, when there is a bright full moon. I can’t always make it back to my hometown, but last year I was lucky enough to have time.

My family live in the country, so the night sky is very clear and you can see a spectacular array of stars and sometimes even the Milky Way. After eating a big meal, I stood outside with my mother, father and sister and looked at the moon while we all ate moon cakes. As I looked up, I thought about my family and the sacrifices they have made to give me a good education and a good start in life, as well as how magnificent the stars looked.
Whenever the festival comes, people tend to look up at the full silver moon and drink wine as a way to celebrate their happy life and to extend their best wishes to their relatives and friends far from home.
