On the second day of our trip, we had a speaking lesson at the British Council. We learnt the skills of giving good presentations. We were reminded to have proper intonation, volume of voice and some other skills. At the end, we were given a very short period of time to write a brief presentation on Singapore. Here is our work:
Good afternoon everyone. Today I’d like to talk about my project about Singapore’s China Town. Do you know when China Town was built? Well, China Town was built in 1980. People can buy souvenirs there.Do you know why it is very famous in Singapore?
It is famous because it is a shopping district in Singapore and is always full of visitors.It is also known to the locals as Niu Che Shui.
This is the end of my presentation. Thank you for listening!

Good afternoon everybody. Today I want to tell you about a famous place in Singapore. It is Merlion Park. Merlion’s name is from a mermaid and a lion. They look very funny. You can find two Merlions in the Merlion park. One is bigger than another. It has lion face and mermaid body. I think this is a symbolic of Singapore. If you want to visit some famous place in Singapore, Merlion Park is a good place for you to go.

Merlion is called Merlion because its body is half mermaid and half lion. There are three merlions in Singapore. They are Father Merlion, Baby Merlion and Mother Merlion.Mother Merlion and baby Merlion are in Merlion Park but Father Merlion is on Sentosa. On Sentosa, we can walk into Father Merlion’s body and walk on his head. We can take photos for the Sentosa. Great!
People are bad because they caught Baby Merlion and Mother Merlion and keep them in the Merlion Park. Mother Merlion and Baby Merlion are poor because they can’t stay with Father Merlion together. Mother Merlion wants to go out of Merlion Park and find Father Merlion.

Good afternoon everyone! Today I want to talk about durians.
Durians in Hong Kong are not popular but in Singapore they are popular. Why do people in Singapore like to eat durians?
Maybe they think durians are yummy. Why do so many people sell durians? This is because Singapore is near Malaysia where the weather is good for growing durians. Thank you for listening.

Hello everyone, I’m going to introduce Merlion! Merlion was in Singapore. Merlion is called Merlion because a Malaysia Prince saw a lion and a mermaid in the sea at his first place to this place. The lion’s head means the city and the mermaid means the water. There are three Merlions in Singapore. The biggest one is on Sentosa. The other two are in Merlion Park. The bigger one is having plastic surgery now, so many people take photos with the smallest one.
