　　Band 6

　　A couple of months ago, my cousin called and told me that she got engaged (訂婚). I can’t tell you how excited and thrilled I was hearing the good news (非謂語加分表達). So in order to celebrate this memorable(值得紀念的) occasion, I decided to give her a special cake as a present.

　　Now, I’d like to talk bout the appearance. The cake had two layers (雙層) and it looked silky smooth (絲滑的), with some chocolate frosting (巧克力糖霜) and some candy sprinkles (糖果碎) on the outside. What’s best about it is that (主語從句) it’s got two little figures on top of it that looked exactly like my cousin and her fiance (未婚夫), which looked super cool! The bride and the groom were so delighted. After they cut the cake, I couldn’t help myself and took a bite. Words can’t describe how (語言無法描述多么的...) savory is was! I’m not exaggerating (毫不夸張地說), it tasted so different from any other cake I’d ever had before, so soft and tender (柔軟的).

　　As for why it’s special, well, first and foremost, it’s undoubtedly the most special cake I’ve ever had. Plus, it has sentimental values (情感價值) that cannot be replaced and we all enjoyed it very much.

　　Band 7

　　A couple of months ago, my cousin called and told me that she got engaged. I can’t tell you how excited and thrilled I was since mycousin and I are like sisters and she knows me likea book (非常了解某人). So in order to celebrate this memorable occasion, I decided to give her something special, which is afondant cake (翻糖蛋糕).

　　When the wedding day finally came, I saw the cake for thefirst time and I was totally blown away (感到震驚)! It was an 8-inch two-layer cake with a silky smooth finish, decorated with (非謂語) chocolate frosting and some candy sprinkles. The biggest highlight is that (最大的亮點是…) it’s got two little figures on top of it that looked exactly like my cousin and her fiance, which looked super cool! The bride and the groom were overjoyed (開心的, 替換happy) withan ear-to-ear smile (咧開嘴的笑容) on their faces. After they cut the cake, Icouldn’t resist the temptation (無法抗拒誘惑) and took a bite. The second it touched my tongue (當觸碰到我的舌尖時，時間狀語), I was utterly out of words (無法用語言表達的震驚)! It tasted so soft and tender and it gave me a whole new sensation (一種全新的感受) that I had never had before.

　　As for why it’s special,well, not only (倒裝) is it the most palatable (美味的，替換deilicious) cake I’ve ever had, but also it has sentimental values that cannot be replaced.
