壮志未酬 Part 2 Describe an ambition that you haven't achieved 描述你未能实现的野心 You should say: What it is Why you haven't achieved it What you did And how you felt about it 示范答案： I have many ambitions in my life. But the one ambition that I am working on right now is to go for higher education in Canada. Earlier I didn't have any plans to go abroad, but a conversation with a friend who went to Canada changed my opinion. He told me about the difference in the quality of education and the work opportunities available there. So after completing my senior secondary education, I decided that it would be the best opportunity for me. There are two main requisites to get admission in a good Canadian college. The first is good grades in senior secondary education. My grades are pretty satisfactory. So, I didn't have to worry about that. The second is a good score in English language tests like IELTS or TOEFL. I learned that Canadian colleges give preference to IELTS and hence I am taking the IELTS exam.For the past two-three months, I have been practicing for the exam. I ordered the Cambridge books and started my preparation from them. There is a lot of free material available on the internet. So, I used that to prepare myself. I usedto practice for about 8 hours every day. I used to try to cover every IELTS module twice. For listening and reading, I didn't need much help. I just practiced the test papers and looked at my mistakes after that, so I don't repeat them. For speaking and writing, I joined a coaching institute and their teachers helped me a lot. I hope to get good bands, so I can move ahead to the next step, which is to apply for an offer letterfrom a Canadian College. I don't think it has been an easy journey. English is not my first language and I have had to practice really hard. I have not achieve it yet, but I hope the fruits of the efforts will definitely be worth the struggle.
