Writing exercise

Honestly, I quite like my apartment which now I live in, but there is still something that I’ m not very satisfied. The first thing I have to say is that the closet is not big enough which I can’t put all my clothes in. Therefore, I bought a new wardrobe which is made of wood. Moreover, i’ d like a large refrigerator to store the food in. I like keeping lots of fresh whole food and makeup which has not been unwrapped in the fridge. The distance from my apartment to subway station is a little bit far, which is not very convenient for me and a waste of time.

Speaking exercise

My office is on the west yan an road near the jingxi road which is a food street in changning district. It’s a historical building which has 3 floors, and I’m in 2nd floor. There is 1 skyscraper near my office and a technological park, one’s on the right, one’s on the left. There is a garden behind my office where many tall trees and flowers were planted. The style of my office is very 1930’s, it’s Chinese style, it’s ming dynasty style, which means there’s a lot of wood, lots of brown colors, and it looks fancy.
