Accommodation

　　1.Can you describe the place where you live?

　　Well, I live in a high-rise building where the facilities are good in urban area. There are air-conditioning and voice-controlled doors in the building. However, people who live here rarely communicate with their neighbours and they’re quite indifferent to each other.

　　我住在一個(gè)高層里，這的設(shè)施在市區(qū)中算不錯(cuò)的了。大樓里有空調(diào)系統(tǒng)和聲控大門。但是住在這里的人們很少和周圍鄰居交流，他們相互之間很冷漠。

　　2.Are the transport facilities to your home very good?

　　Yes, it’s quite convenient. There’s a subway station not far from where I live. Normally, I take it to go and off work. Plus, actually, a bus station is just near the community, but unfortunately, it’s very crowded during rush hour.

　　是的，很方便。離我家不遠(yuǎn)的地方有一個(gè)地鐵站，一般我都是坐地鐵上下班的。還有，小區(qū)附近有一個(gè)公車站，但高峰時(shí)車上太擠了。

　　3.Can you describe the room you live in?

　　Well, my apartment is well decorated. Actually, I have a large coffee table in front of the sofa, so I can put coffee, magazines and different types of snacks on it. And also, the wall of my room is in light green which makes me feel like to be surrounded by the natural world.

　　我家是精裝修的。沙發(fā)前有一個(gè)大咖啡桌，我可以在上面放咖啡、雜志和各種零食。我房間的墻壁是淡綠色的，讓我覺得好像置身于大自然當(dāng)中一樣。

　　4.What can you see when you look out the window of your room?

　　Sadly, there’s no magnificent scenery out of my window because, you know, I live in an apartment in the city centre. However, I can see a small garden over my window, there’re some elderly people playing Tai Chi and doing exercises in the morning.

　　很不幸，我家窗外沒什么華麗風(fēng)景，因?yàn)槲易≡谑兄行摹５�是我可以透過窗戶看到一個(gè)小花園，早上能看到一些老年人在那打太極和做其他運(yùn)動(dòng)。

　　5.In the future, what type of place would you like to live in?

　　Well, I am thinking of, may be, I’d choose the house near water, not only because I love different types of seafood but also because I enjoy watching the beautiful sunset over the water. You know what, the most impressive thing living near the sea is that, I can invite my friends and family to come here during weekends to have a party or barbecue near the beach.

　　我在想，也許我會(huì)選擇一個(gè)靠近水的房子，這不僅僅是因?yàn)槲蚁矚g吃各種海鮮，還因?yàn)槲蚁矚g看海上的日落。你知道嗎，住在海邊最棒的事就是周末邀請(qǐng)家人或朋友過來，在沙灘邊聚會(huì)或燒烤。
