SET口說講稿分享 by Martin- Describe an important event in history

Describe an important event in history. You should say

• when it happened


• what the event was


• and what effect you think this event had.

---------------------------------

 

One of the most important and shocking events in history is the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

 

This event took place on the East coast of the US on September 11, 2001 and it consisted of a series of suicide attacks conducted by a group of terrorists. These terrorists hijacked commercial airplanes and directed them into the Pentagon and the World Trade Center buildings in New York City. Part of the Pentagon was damaged, but both Twin Towers collapsed and were fully destroyed. Because of these attacks, thousands of innocent people were injured and killed.

 

I think this event really has had an effect on many people's lives, especially Americans because it was like a direct hit into their hearts. Since the attacks, the security at airports, government buildings, and popular public places has become extremely tight and that somehow has caused inconvenience on our daily lives. For example, if we travel by plane, we must get to the airport 2 or 3 hours before the flight in order to go through all the security check points.

 

All in all, I think the 9/11 attacks is a very important event in the history of mankind because it showed how a country was able to rebuild and recover despite all the grief.
