Homework


Think about 3 questions customers may ask you by email and how you would answer them

Speaking exercise

I like to learn English I learned for one year and this year I didn’t learn English for about 8 months because I opened a global store on Amazon so I need to read more emails from Amazon for my company. I sell air conditioners and accessory parts. My work is to sell services. We use emails to talk with buyers.
Maybe about size, quantity and/orcolor.
I learn English because my work needs it/ I learn English because I need it for my work
and I like to do business and experience travels. next week I will go to Japan.
I think Japanese food is very similar to Chinese food and it is nearby China/ and the flight is very short/the trip only takes a short time (by plane) . Food is very simple and clean and there are famous buildings similar to Chinese buildings. Famous buildings are the same style as Chinese buildings.
I think spoken English is important because my spoken English has some issues about pronunciation, grammar…
