Example answer: In the picture I can see two young people, a man and a woman, who are
wearing helmets, glasses and some light clothes. I mean T- Shirts and trousers. It seems as if
they are jumping with a parachute because I can see colourful straps and in the background
there is a breathtaking view of the tree-covered mountains so it may be summer or spring. The
people are smiling so they seem to be excited and delighted. Also I think they are keen on
adventure because parachuting is a risky and dangerous sport and, perhaps, these people are
courageous and brave. Also the woman is holding a selfie stick to take a picture of this
impressive landscape and keep this moment in her memory.)
