Решение: Shopping Ways and Preferences
Imagine that you are doing a project “Tastes differ” together with your friend. You have found some illustrations and want to share the news. Leave a voice message to your friend. In 2.5 minutes be ready to:
• give a brief description of the photos, justifying the choice of the photos for the project;
• say in what way the pictures are different, justifying the choice of the photos for the project;
• mention the advantages and disadvantages (1–2) of the two ways of shopping;
• express your opinion on the subject of the project – which of these ways of shopping you prefer and why.
You will speak for not more than 3 minutes (12–15 sentences). You have to talk continuously.
Решение по шагам
7 шаговStart by addressing your friend and introduce the project and the topic of the two photos.
Describe Photo 1: a family is shopping for food in a supermarket. Mention the shelves, trolley and products.
Describe Photo 2: a young woman is buying something online with a bank card and a tablet.
Compare the pictures: the first shows traditional shopping in a physical store, while the second shows online shopping.
Explain that supermarket shopping allows people to see and choose products immediately, but it can be time-consuming and crowded.
Explain that online shopping is convenient and saves time, but customers cannot examine goods before buying and may have to wait for delivery.
Conclude with a personal preference supported by a reason.
I would prefer online shopping because it is convenient and saves time, although shopping in a supermarket is useful when I need to choose fresh products immediately.
