答案 Studies
I study engineering. I’ve been interested in technical things ever since I was a kid, so it was natural for me to choose this subject. I’m in my third and final year now.
I study at King’s University. It’s not a particularly big or famous university, but it is very good in certain subject areas, such as mine.
I chose it because it had a good reputation and is not too expensive. I didn’t want to have large debts when I finished my course. I heard about the university for the first time when a speaker from there came to my school to give an introductory speech about it.
I’m really glad that I came here. As well as the good level of education provided here, the campus is very quiet and green--it’s on the edge of the city. The university has forged strong links with local engineering companies, so I get plenty of opportunity to use the things that I learn in a practical environment. The other students here are very friendly and we often organise parties on the campus. One reason for his is that, although there are bars and clubs in the city, there is no transport back to the university late in the evenings.
Restaurants
Yes, I do. I enjoy going out for a meal with friends or family. I can cook but I can’t cook a wide range of food, so going to a restaurant is a good way to taste food from around the globe. I usually go to a restaurant once or twice a week, depending on how much time I have.
There’s an Italian restaurant on the main road near my home. That’s the nearest one. It’s OK. Within about 15 minutes walk of my home there ale several better restaurants--another Italian one, an Indonesian one and a French one. There’s also a fast food place, but I don’t go there very often!
They’re certainly clean and convenient, but I’m not sure about the quality of the food there. I don’t think that it’s as unhealthy as many people claim, but it’s certainly not very healthy. I go about once a month--usually for lunch if I have a lot of work and need something quick.
Generally, the service is very good and I don’t have to wait very long to be served or for the food to arrive. The wait staff are attentive and friendly. The owners of the restaurants have clearly trained them well. I was in a restaurant last week and one of the staff made a mistake with my order. He was very apologetic.
I definitely prefer home cooking, but restaurants offer a greater variety of dishes. Restaurant food in my area tends to be very filling--sometimes I can hardly move after eating!
Shopping
I don’t mind shopping, but it’s not my favourite activity. I don’t like big crowds of people pushing, so I avoid sales and shopping on Saturdays. I like looking at all the latest products and fashions. When I go shopping, I usually spend some time comparing the prices of different brands.
I shop for food at a local supermarket, but I occasionally buy a few items at a small shop. I shop for other things, such as clothes, at a variety of places.
My street only has houses, but there are many shops on the main road nearby. Let’s see--there’s a bookshop, a shoe shop, a supermarket, a chemist’s, a newsagent’s and a travel agent’s. There are others, but I can’t remember them now. The bookshop is quite big and has an excellent variety of books. The shoe shop is good for women’s shoes, but not for men’s. The chemist’s is very useful because it is open 24 hours, although you have to ring a bell for service between 7 p.m. and 8 a.m. Having a travel agent nearby is convenient, but I can usually find better prices online.
