Part 2&3  A time you waited for something special答案及解析_雅思口语练习「新东方雅思官方网校」

People usually need to wait when they want to take public transport like buses, trains, and especially taxis. More recently taxis are booked online through apps and sometimes it takes a really long time for drivers to pick up. Another situation in which people routinely wait is when they have a doctor’s appointment – they can wait a long time in queues for such appointments, especially in really busy places. 

Adults are usually better at waiting. We learn, as we get older, to be more patient about things in life and not expect instant gratification. Kids are much less patient largely because they don’t understand the need to wait for things, and want things to happen immediately when they expect something. Patience is a quality which sometimes is very hard to nurture in children, as they have very emotional reactions to circumstances. 

It depends. In cities in China, yes, population is dense and there are lots of crowds. It seems that in recent years, I think mainly because of the traffic in my city, I seem to wait longer and longer for everything. I reckon this is becoming common for pretty much everyone, and instead of getting more patient, I think many people are becoming increasingly less patient the more that they are frustrated by long queues, taxi waits, and all sorts of measures and protocols that are involved in going to different places these days.
