Describe a time that you and your friend had a disagreement.

You should say:

when this happened

who you disagreed with

what you and your friend argued about

and if you two solved the disagreement in the end.

 

Well, recently I had a disagreement with one of my close friends（亲密的朋友）. We were planning a long travel to the Tibet several days later, but we were not sure how many people went there together. I suggested that we just went on the trip with two or there people together because it would be very difficult to organise¹ the trip to meet different people’s needs. But my friend insisted that we should go with group of people because it would be more fun and secure. I admitted his opinion was reasonable but didn’t want to compromise as I didn’t want to take risk to plan everything for so many people in such unfamiliar² place, and I thought he didn’t care.

 

Ultimately³ after endless disagreement and even quarrels, I found myself couldn’t express myself well and became more and more frustrated⁴ and less effective at explaining my feelings. So I left him that day without any results. The next day, after I calmed down again, I sent him a text message to tell him what I was concerning, attempting to communicate without angry or overly emotional exchanges. Finally, he replied to me that he understood my consideration now, and agreed with my plan.
