文本素材&亮点词汇：

Describe something you received for free

You should say

What it was

Who you received it from         

Where you received it

And how you felt about it

Regarding this topic, I guess it pays to（值得） be a loyal customer. I have been subscribed （订阅，订购）to my internet provider for almost a decade and a half（十五年） now and receiving a free gift is something that doesn't happen to me every day. Obviously, it's something unexpected since they weren’t running any promotions at that moment nor did I receive any prior(事先，优先的） information about it. I didn't even join the raffle(抽奖） if that’s what you think.

To make sure it's not a hoax（恶作剧） or that it isn’t a scam（骗局）, I asked around and I guess I’m just one of the lucky ones. Accordingly（因此）, customers who have been with the company for 10 years are entitled to receive a brand-new smartphone as a token（标志） of appreciation for the continuous patronage（惠顾） we have for the company. Furthermore, out of thousands of customers, only 1000 are randomly（随机的） chosen.

I vividly remembered one of my friends, Lisa, telling me that Christmas came early since she received the free phone, too. I was over the moon when the official representative(代表） was knocking on my door to hand me the gift. As crazy as it sounds, I even had mixed emotions due to the fact that some of the worst experiences came flashing before me while I was accepting the gift. I reckon I tend to be a difficult customer when they are having system issues or during maintenance repairs. Then I realized there are some things we have no control of like me getting a free gift despite sometimes my bad attitude when I deal with them.
