Writing exercise

Favourite Cuisine: Chinese Food

I like Chinese cuisine because it has a lot of variety/contains a lot of types and you can prepare food through a variety of ways and it brings different flavours.
I like eating meat, especially pork. I prefer to eat dinner because there is not much time to eat lunch and I eat lunch in the canteen. The food there is quite average, so I would look forward to dinner more. I also love dessert, other than chocolate I also like cake. My favourite shop is BreadTalk because I can buy all the things I want to eat, it’s affordable and fresh.

Speaking exercise

Travel: Tell me about a time that you felt uncomfortable.

I went to Vietnam about four or five years ago. We have three friends with us and one of the girls was robbed. Her necklace was taken by someone on a motorbike. We called the Chinese embassy but no one to deal with this thing. The local people told us that that person has taken drugs so they’re not thinking straight. My friend felt really sad and horrible afterwards. After this incident, we would never go back to Vietnam.

Travel: Tell me about a travel experience that you will never forget.

It’s my first time to America and I feel very strange and fresh. I’ve been to Los Angeles, San Deigo, Las Vegas and San Jose. Its very different from China. The shop there is closed very early in the night. We travelled to Universal Studios and Hollywood, and the rides/rollercoasters in Universal Studios were very exhilarating/terrifying/exciting. The whole experience was unforgettable.

Travel: Tell about a travel experience where you had to use English.

America and I used a lot of body language.
