Model Answer 1:
There is hardly any place in my country, India, where the level of noise is negligible.
Although I have visited so many places where the level of noise is so high, here I would like to talk about a place where I found so much noise.
When you went there:
About a couple of months ago
Why you went there:
My great-uncle invited all of my family members to celebrate his son's 5th birthday in Delhi. So we came there to celebrate my birthday. After celebrating the birthday, the next day my uncle took us to the Sarojini market, which is about 2 km away from his home.
Why it was noisy:
When I visited there, I encountered so much noise, and the level of noise was equal from the entry to the exit of that street. There were two basic reasons why it was so noisy.
First and foremost, it is located on a busy road where there is frequent honking from running vehicles.
And the second one is that retailers in this market advertise their products through their recorded voices on loudspeakers, which makes it hard for visitors to visit that place for a long time.
What did you do to avoid it:
I also faced the same situation, and when I had spent half an hour in that market, I felt a severe headache, due to which I decided to quit shopping for the rest of the products.
At last, I returned to my uncle's place and took a rest of about 2 hours to relax myself.
So, all in all, that was a place where I found a lot of noise.
Model Answer 2:
When I went there with a lot of noise, I will never forget it. It was a singular event that I will always remember. Even though it was terrible and loud, the noise had an appealing quality. I want to discuss that right now.
When you went there:
The 2019 summer was when this amazing event took place. I made the decision to explore the city while on a family holiday in a nearby location. I came upon a spot with a lot of noise as I was exploring.
Why you went there:
This loud location was in a little town close to the city. It was a little town with only a few restaurants and stores. I was curious about the loudness coming from this location because I had never been to this town before.
Why it was noisy:
The town was hosting a small music festival, which is where the noise was coming from. Locals were extremely devoted to the celebration, which honoured the town's history and culture. Everyone sang and danced to the loud, upbeat music.
What did you do to avoid it:
I was fascinated by the loudness when I first heard it. I made the decision to attend and investigate the festival. I was taken aback by the festival's attendance numbers; the enthusiasm was visible.
