Model answer:
Yes, last week I went to Dubai and I was there because I was visiting my best friend. So what I really like about Dubai was the fact that I was there visiting my friend and I found it very, a very great place. It's not so far from my country, first of all, and it is in the UAE. It is near Abu Dhabi and I flew to the airport there. My friend, he met me, and we drove to Dubai. It was maybe one hour until the outskirts, then the traffic was very bad. In Dubai, you have to take the car everywhere. We relaxed and went to the shopping malls, they are great, and the beaches. We chatted mainly. We haven't seen each other for long time. And we went skiing! In the shopping mall there is a slope. It was interesting because it has many contrasts, because you have lots of poor people and lots of very, very rich people. There is no middle class there and the places you go, there is gold, too much gold and, on the other hand there are many people living there, they are immigrants.
