　　考官参考范文：

　　Ok right then, well after a bit of thought, the object that I'd like to talk about is my piano, as it's probably the oldest thing we have in our family.

　　And as for how we first got it, well I'm honestly not that sure, because it's been in the family for as long as I can remember. ButIthink I'm right in saying that my grandparents bought it, although I never actually asked them. And they passed the piano down to me, because I'm the only one of their grandchildren who plays the piano, so I feel very fortunate and grateful to have it.

　　Anyway, regarding the importance of it, well, simply speaking, I'd say it's extremely important, at least for me personally, the main reason being that it has a very strong sentimental value to me. You know, whenever I play the piano, it reminds me of my grandparents, especially my grandma, who used to always play it and sing to me when I was little.

　　So it really means a lot to me, and although it doesn't sound as good as a lot of pianos, I wouldn't change it for any other! Because um, how can I put it……um… I guess what I'm trying to say is that, to me, it's more than just a piano, you know, it's kind of a memento and something to remember my grandparents by.

　　So yeah, that's pretty much it.

　　高分表达Notes:

　　Sentimental value - 情感价值

　　Anyway - (表示略去一些细节转到下一个主要话题)总之 You use anyway or anyhow to indicate that you are missing out some details in a story and are passing on to the next main point or event.

　　how can I put it – 怎么说呢?

　　it's more than just a piano – 不仅仅是钢琴

　　Memento - 遗物，纪念品，用以回忆的东西

　　So yeah, that's pretty much it. – 所以嗯，差不多就这些。

　　Other useful phrases:

　　There are a few scratches on it – 上面有些刮痕划痕

　　I polish it quite a lot to keep it looking nice – 我经常把它擦光……
