l) Тебе нравится район, в который ты переехала?
– Да, около дома много магазинов, например, хлебный, мясной, овощной, которые работают допоздна. Это очень удобно, потому что я покупаю продукты каждый день после работы. Около станции метро есть супермаркет, где я покупаю жидкость для мытья посуды, стиральный порошок, отбеливатель, полироль для мебели и другие чистящие средства. Мыло, шампунь, зубную пасту и прочие туалетные принадлежности я обычно покупаю в аптеке.
2) – Я иду в супермаркет. Тебе что-нибудь нужно?
– Да, купи, пожалуйста, бифштексы, отбивные из баранины, консервированный суп и кукурузные хлопья для завтрака. У нас все закончилось.
– Хорошо, это всё у меня в списке. Кстати, у тебя есть наличные? В этом супермаркете нельзя оплатить покупки картой.
– Вот возьми, но помни, что у нас туго с деньгами. – Ты же знаешь, что я очень экономна в мелочах. – Зато легко тратишь по-крупному.
3) – В какие отделы универмага любят ходить члены твоей семьи?
– Папа никогда не проходит мимо отдела скобяных изделий, хотя у него и так полно всяких молотков и отвёрток. Мама с удовольствием посещает мебельный салон и отдел электробытовых товаров в поисках новинок. А я люблю заглянуть в ювелирный отдел и померить разные браслеты и ожерелья.
– Этот торговый центр просто огромный. Мне нужно найти магазин канцтоваров, чтобы купить открытку.
- Посмотри на первом этаже, там большой выбор поздравительных открыток. А я пока зайду в магазин «Сделай сам». Давай встретимся через полчаса в кофейне на крыше.
