How was your day?

I get up early today, so I feel very sleepy, I try to sleep in the afternoon, but I just cannot fall asleep.And I did some reading exercises and listening exercises.

You know,these days I have been under a lot of pressure.I try to spend all my time on the English,but when I sit in front of books,I just feel tired and restless.

I just hope I can pass the IELTS and get a good score.

After that I will have a long holiday and I will play computer games and maybe go traveling.

 

Where are you from teacher?

If that university do not accept me, I will go to the Cardiff University.

I do not know if i can get used to the foreign life.I am a little afraid and a little nervous.

But I still want to try, and another thing is I am not sure if I can graduate on time, if i cannot graduate on time I have to spend more money, maybe I cannot afford it.

So maybe I can go abroad but I cannot come back.

Five years from now, I hope that the construction of my dream home will start and I imagine its style to be contemporary.

I don't fancy traditional style because I would like it to be full of mod-cons.

Anyway, I would love it to be in a picturesque setting.

If I got lucky enough to afford a house in such a location.

I would have superb sea views.

However, I don't want it to be roomy and spacious.

Because I plan to stay single for life what important is it's cozy and comfortable.

I was born in Beijing, but we moved away when I was very young.

I've been here for ten years.I want to change my job.It's time for me to move on.

I bought a new house.I'm hoping to move in sometime next month.

When I went to university, I moved out and lived in university accommodation.

 

 

 

Some young people want to move out from their parents' house.

My dream house is already completed, so I can finally move in anytime I want.

I guess, it's time for us to move on.

The unlucky families moved away from that city and lived in the near city.

 

 

 

It would be located in a stunningly beautiful coastal area.

It would be a two-storey house with lots of outbuildings for a gym, a library and guest acommodation.

There would be a lawn and a lot of mature trees.

Obviously, it would be have a swimming pool.Ideally, I'd love an infinity pool.

 

 

If I lived in my dream house,it would be a two-storey house.

If I lived in my dream hosue,it would be an infinity pool.

If I lived in my dream house,it would be located near the coast.

a sauna

a huge lawn

overly big

homely

 

 

 

If I were the president of this country, I would shut down all industries vialating the laws.

If I won the lottery, I would quit my job immediately.

 

 

 

I would buy my mother a house if she gave me a million dollars.

If I were Donald Trump, I would set up a charity organization and spend all my time on charity.

If she were an actress, she would won an Oscar.

I would buy many sports cars if I were very rich.

If I went to Moon,I would took a selfie and upload it to my social network.

 

 

其实我经常会想像自己拥有一座梦想的房子.几乎每天晚上都会想.因为其实房子和车子算是人们比较高的物质需求.现代的几乎每一个人都在追求房子和车子,好像有了房子和车子才算是有了一个家.

我经常想像我的房子在一座小岛上,5分钟的船就可以到达这座小岛,然后这座小岛是圆形的,四周全是沙滩,然后我的房子就在沙滩的边上,然后小岛的中间全是森林,所以我的房子前面就是大海,后面是森林.

 

Actually I often image I can have a dream house,almost every night when I lay on the bed, I will image that i am rich and own a big house.

The houses and cars are higher material needs for people.Nowadays almost every one pursue a house and a car.It’s like only if you have a house and a car, you have a family.

I always image my dream house can be on an island, it takes about 5 minutes by ship from land can reach the island.This island is round and surrounded by beautiful beach.My dream house is near the beach.The middle of the island is all forest so in front of my house is the sea, and behind it is the forest.This is my dream house.

 

 

我的房子最好是2层楼,楼下要放一张台球桌和一张乒乓球桌,楼上是卧室

My house should be two-storey,there are a pool table and a table tennis table down stairs.and upstairs is the bedroom.

 

我还要一个很大的浴缸和一台很大的电视

And I want a huge bathtub and a hug television.

 

你可以说一下你的梦想的房子吗

can you describe your dream house

 

我想学习一下你是怎么描述的

I want to learn how can you describe

 

你可以打字给我看一下吗

can you type it for me please

 

我觉得有时候我没有什么想法

I think sometimes I just do not have any ideas.

My mind went blank

 

我的家里有一个很大的客厅.

There is a big living room in my house.

There is a big red sofa in my living room.

The kitchen is near the living room.

The table is made of glass.

The wall are covered with comic posters.

There is a big french window in my bedroom.

 

你可以详细地描述一下吗

Would you please describe your dream house in detail.

I want to learn how can you describe.

 

I can only say there is a something in some room.

I don’t know how to describe it better.
