1. Tell me about your neighborhood. Where do you live? Have you been living there for a long time? Do you like where you live? Why or why not? What does your neighborhood look like? Tell me everything in as much detail as possible.

- I live in a neighborhood not far from the city center. I have been living there for about 5 years, so I know the area very well. My neighborhood is clean, safe, and has a very friendly atmosphere.
- There are many useful places around my home. For example, there is a supermarket, a pharmacy, cafés, and a few small shops only a few minutes away. There is also a nice park where people go jogging, walk their dogs, or relax in the afternoon. The streets are wide, have many trees, and the traffic is not too busy.
- I really like living here because it is convenient and comfortable. I can buy anything I need easily, and public transportation is very close. The neighbors are polite and helpful, so I always feel relaxed and happy living in this area.

2. I would like to know where you live. Can you describe your home to me? What does it look like? How many rooms does it have? Tell me about your favorite room. What does it look like?

- I have lived in an apartment with my family for a few years. It’s not very big, but it has everything I need. My home has 4 rooms: a living room, a bedroom, a kitchen, and a bathroom.
- The living room is the biggest room. It has a sofa, a small table, and a TV. I usually relax there after work. The kitchen is also small, but it is clean and bright. I cook my meals there every day. The bathroom has a shower, a sink, and a mirror. My bedroom is simple. It has a bed, a closets, and a desk where I study and use my laptop.
- My favorite room is my bedroom because it is quiet and cozy. The bed is very comfortable. I feel relaxed when I lie down on my bed. I also work and surf the Internet and watch movies here with my computer. Plus, I can do whatever I want to in my room without bothering others.
- Overall, my home is simple, clean, and comfortable, and I really enjoy living in it.

3. Describe the home you lived in as a child. How was it different from the home you live in now?

- When I was a child, I lived in a small and simple house. It was a small house with 2 bedrooms and a small living room. The house was old, and the rooms were quite dark because the windows were small. It used to have only basic furniture without any modern appliances. There was also a small garden, I used to play there all the time with my brother.
- The home I live in now is very different. First, it is bigger and has more rooms. Second, it is much brighter because it has large windows. Third, the furniture and appliances are modern, so everything feels more comfortable and convenient. However, it doesn't have a garden, so I have to go to the park to get some exercise.
- Overall, my childhood home was small, old, and a bit dark, but my home now is bigger, brighter, more modern, which is much more comfortable.

4. There are always problems that happen in any home. Things break, projects do not go as planned, or people you live with do not cooperate. Tell me about some problems or issues you had in your home.

- One common issue is that some things break because they are old. For example, a table in my room had a broken leg or a glass cup broke, so I sometimes have to repair or replace them.
- Another problem is with the electricity. There were days when the power suddenly went out in the evening. When that happened, I couldn’t use my phone, watch TV, or do my work. It was very inconvenient and disrupted my whole routine.
- I also sometimes have problems with noise. My neighbors occasionally play loud music at night, which makes it hard for me to sleep or focus on studying.
- Even though these problems happen, I usually try to stay calm and fix things.
