Sample answer
The celebration I enjoyed most was my birthday. It took place at my home last summer. My family and closest friends were there. We decorated the room, ate pizza and birthday cake, played games and listened to music. I felt very happy and excited because everyone I love was together. It was a wonderful day that I will always remember.
