A significant celebration

I am going to talk about a significant celebration, that happened for me almost three years ago. I went with my friend to a beautiful building. It was crowded. Some people were standing and others were sitting, but all people were too tense!

When it was ten o’clock, a calm blonde lady came and asked everyone to follow her which made everyone even more tense.

She took us to a small room and as soon as we entered she closed the door very quickly. We all kept silent and just looked at her. She asked us to sit down silently, then she gave each one of us a piece of paper and a pencil.

Once we all had paper and pencils we began to read and write.After a while she took all papers then  another tall lady entered the room several times. Each time she took one of us outside. We suspected at this point that people who go never come back! I wondered what was going on!
Finally, she called my name and I stood up immediately, waved to my friend and I to go with her. She took me to another room where three people were sitting. Without talking, the lady point out to an old lady and I realised that she wanted me to join her. I walked slowly and sat down next to the old lady. The old lady looked at my eyes and felt how I was worried. Then, she smiled widely and said “You have done the placement test and this is your conversation test. Welcome to the British Council!”.
