Speaking exercise

Is brand very important to you?

I think the answer is yes. I am a Shanghainese, when I was a little girl, my mother took me to the shopping center. She always found a brand, and then she choice the Tshirts or something for me. I think that is a traditional culture in Shanghai, because the local people trust brand, they don’t trust no brand. For example, we audit the TV, we discussed the brand and the price at home. My father said, we can choose Sharp because he heard we guaranteed the TV can be used 10 years. Japanese TV was good, we bought it to our home, then it worked for 10 years. So why I said is when I was a little girl until now, when I buy something, I choose school, I always trust brand, maybe I think it’s value for money.

Revised

I think the answer is yes. I am a Shanghainese, when I was a little girl, my mother would take me to the shopping center and bought T-shirts from a good brand. I think that is a traditional culture in Shanghai, because the local people trust brands for their qualities, they don’t trust no brand. For example, my family wanted to buy a TV, we discussed the brands and the prices at home. My father said, we could choose Sharp because the TV has a guarantee for 10 years. Japanese TV had a good reputation, we bought it and it actually it worked/functioned well for 10 years. Even nowadays when I want to buy something or when I pick a school, I always trust in brands, maybe I think it’s value for money.
