一群人微笑是个多么诡异的场面啊…… 但是考官就偏偏让我描述这样的场景。于是我们就尽量挑一个不那么诡异的场面说吧…

那一群人能够自然的笑，第一个能想到的，除了饭店的服务生，就只有大合照了：

This topic reminds me of the time we took class pictures on graduation day.

Actually, we all had mixed feelings, on the one hand, we were pretty psyched about graduating from university and getting a diploma, on the other hand, we also felt a little bit sad ‘cause we had to say goodbye to all the classmates who have spent the last four years with each other.

However, when we took the picture, we still didn’t forget to be funny. I mean, we made faces and posed hilariously to the camera despite the photographer’s objection. He was so pissed off. In the end, he couldn’t stand us anymore, and shouted, couldn’t you guys act like normal people and just smile to the camera?

After we were done having fun, we thought, maybe we should listen to the photographer and take a decent picture together. So we stood still, and said cheese when he clicked the shutter.

After we got the picture, we were surprised to see that everybody looked great in the picture, I mean, we all had a sweet smile on our face, looking energetic and hopeful.

I framed the picture and put it on my bookshelf. It would bring back memories from my college years. Every time I saw those smiling faces I would recall all the precious moments we had together during those four years, and I just couldn’t help cracking a smile.
