10.11. Should we live in a flat or a house?
It heavily depends on people’s
preference and affordability since each type of
property has its own
perks.
If one enjoys the modern amenities that an
apartment complex
can provide such as gyms, swimming pools and
convenience stores and, of course, he has money, an apartment would be a
great choice. In contrast, houses are usually suitable those who prefer privacy
and a quiet lifestyle.
Affordability (n): the fact of being cheap enough that people can afford to buy
it
or pay it; how affordable something is
Perk (n): a benefit or advantage that
you get from a situation
Amenity (n): a feature that makes a place pleasant, comfortable or easy to live
in
11. Reading
11.1 Do you read electronic book ?
Definitely yes. I’m a real sucker for e-books as they are portable. I often
download my favorite books and copy them to my smartphones or Ipads and
when I’m on the bus in other public places, I will take my hi-tech devices out
and start to read right on my phone.
11.2. Have you lent books to other?
At times, I reckon. My friends and t are avid readers and would love to exchange
books with one another. So, I often lend my books, mostly English books to my
besties and get in return some comic books to read in my free time.
