　　最后，附上雅思考官给出的9分范文：

　　I'm going to describe a café that I go to maybe once a week. It's just down the road from where I live、 near Manchester、 so it's really convenient for me to walk down there for a coffee or a bite to eat、 and to use the wifi.

　　The last time I went to this local café was on Friday afternoon. I was trying to do some work at home、 but I found myself getting distracted by little jobs around the house. So I decided to have a change of scenery; I put my laptop in its bag and made the short walk to the café、 where I spent the next few hours getting all of my work done. With a nice cup of coffee and just the right level of background noise、 I found it much easier to concentrate.

　　Over the course of the afternoon、 I drank two cups of coffee and a glass or two of water. The café owner takes a lot of pride in making the best 'flat white' coffee in the area、 so that's what I tend to drink. If I remember correctly、 the second coffee that I ordered was a decaf、 because I try to avoid drinking too much caffeine in the afternoon. I didn't have anything to eat on that occasion、 but I do sometimes have one of the home-made cakes that they sell.

　　There are a few reasons why I like going to my local café. I suppose the main reasons are the coffee、 the free wifi and the friendly staff. However、 on Friday I also managed to sit at my favorite table near one of the windows、 and the café wasn't very busy. So the atmosphere and noise level were just right、 and I was able to focus on my work without distractions for most of the afternoon.
