Speaking exercise

Let me think about it / give me a second to remember

I remember that I stayed at home for 6 or 7 days I didn’t go to another city or travel because of the virus we cannot go outside or travel.
Currently the state is not urgent a lot of people they want to go out for food for travel or something else so I don’t want to go out together.

the bund it is famous so it is very crowded.

I will take the IELTS exam in December I just want to try to know what the score is mine so I did the reading at home.

The vocabulary is very difficult to me now.

I know the rules we need to do 3 articles in 1h but I think I do 1 article in 1h now.
Because a lot of new words I don’t know so I need to use the dictionary to research.
the rank is not high enough. I received an offer from a UK university but the rank is not higher enough so if I couldnt have another offer I only choose this one so for now the IELTS exam is very important.

I become more and more worried as the exam date is coming closer
