话匣子英语:你喜欢购物吗
Jessie: Well, today we’re going to be talking about a subject that I know you’ll enjoy, and that is shopping.
Harp: Oh, I love shopping!
Jessie: So, today we’re gonna talk about a few different aspects of shopping: first we’re going to talk about different people’s attitude towards shopping, then we’ll talk about some different kinds of shopping that you can do, and then we’ll talk a little about how shopping has changed since the Internet. And throughout this episode, we’ll also be providing you with some useful vocabulary so that you can talk about shopping in an everyday English conversation.
Well, we said the first thing we were going to talk about was different people’s attitudes about shopping. And I can tell you that my attitude towards shopping is not usually very positive. I don’t like shopping. I feel like I have to drag myself to the store. It’s a big chore that I have to do. I’m so happy when I’m finished.
Harp: Oh Jessie, I still remember the time we went shopping together.
Jessie: Oh, that’s right! See, Harp and I are a good pair, because she loves shopping.
Harp: I love it! And I love helping other people shop as well. So one time, I took Jessie shopping because she needed to buy a dress for a … wedding, I think?
Jessie: Yeah. I was invited to my friend’s wedding and I had nothing to wear, and I hate shopping, so I called Harp and asked her if she would help me find a dress.
Harp: And we did find a dress.
