Question
We usually divide our speech into logical parts. Between each part, we pause slightly to make it easier for the listener to follow what we're saying. Listen again. Mark // in the places you hear a pause.
Answer
I really like the town where I live // and I think one of the main reasons is that, // in terms of shopping, // there is a lot of variety. // The main street has many different types of shops. // Some of them are run by local people // and they have been there for a long time. // I like going into these shops // because you get very good service. // They are always very helpful and friendly. // Also, if you’re buying food, // like vegetables, meat or fish, for example, // the food is always fresher, tastier and cheaper than in the large supermarkets. // There is one large supermarket in the main street .. which is very convenient for lots of the basic things you need to buy. // I'd say that I'm very lucky // because there is such a good variety of shops in walking distance of where I live. // I have a mixture of local shops and large supermarkets // and therefore I have the best of both worlds.
