雅思口語裡有個話題是a place in your town you would like to visit with your friends, 這個口語話題我們可以直接聯想到street market。提到street market大家腦海裡想到的可能是臺灣小吃一條街,或者燈火通明的夜市,或者琳琅滿目的二手交易市場,無論是那種market,我們都可以像介紹地點類話題一樣,先說這個market在哪裡,再說你通常什麼時候去,跟誰去,然後介紹一下market裡面有什麼,你最喜歡的是什麼,再來說說你某一次的購物經歷(什麼時候跟誰在哪裡買了啥)和你的感受。
There’s a famous night market in my hometown, every year when the summer comes, the whole street will come alive in the evening.
When I was little, I always went there with my mom, 『cause there were a lot of snack bars there.
I went to that street market about 2 weeks ago with my friends, and actually, it had been a while since the last time I went there. Things were a little bit different from what I remembered. I mean, in my memory, like I said, there used to be plenty of snack bars on both sides of the road, however, they are replaced by fruit stands and booths selling clothes and small jewelry. I was told, street food is not allowed in the market any more because conditions there are not that hygienic. I was really sad, 『cause as a foodie, the main reason I went all the way to the night market was to eat those tasty stuff, you know.
Fortunately, my friend told me, there was other fun stuff we can do in that market. She said, there’s a place selling stuffed animals at a super low price, and the quality is pretty good. So I followed her to the stall, and I was amazed by what I saw. I mean, the soft toys on the stall were so adorable. I bought 2 teddy bears and they only cost me 20 RMB. That was a real bargain.
So maybe I』ll go there again later this summer.
