Episode 1: Reasons to Learn on iTalki

“I’m not actually a huge fan of TV, but there is one show that I do enjoy watching every weekend. It’s called _______ idol, which is a hugely popular reality show, where aspiring singers compete against each other for a shot at fame, or even a record contract.




The show is on every Sunday night at about 8pm, and I normally watch it at home with my family.




Young people who dream of being a famous singer, can have the chance to be chosen to perform on the show in front of judges who select the best performers. Later on the public can also get involved, and vote for their favourite singer by phone or online, and the singer with the most votes becomes the winner.




One of the things I love about this show is that it gives any Joe Bloggs off the street, not only a genuine chance to show off their talent, but to also have a shot at fame.




I think we all dream of what it might be like to be a star, and this show really opens doors for some of these dreamers, if of course they have the talent.




On top of that, it’s a lot of fun watching the early stages of the show, and passing judgement on the different contestants as well as supporting the best singers, as if I had discovered them myself.

小丽最近的一次购物经历

上周末，我和朋友一起去了市中心的一家大型商场购物。因为正值季末打折，很多商品都有很大的折扣。
首先，我们去了服装区。我在那里看到了一件很喜欢的外套，原价500元，现在打八折，只要400元。我试穿了这件外套，觉得非常合适，于是决定买下它。接着，我们又去了鞋子区，朋友买了一双运动鞋，也是打了折的。
在购物的过程中，我们还去了电子产品区。我看中了一个最新款的耳机，虽然没有打折，但我觉得它的性能很好，就买了下来。我们在商场里逛了好几个小时，最后在一家餐厅吃了午饭。
购物结束后，我们去了收银台付款。因为买的东西比较多，我们分开付款，每个人都拿到了小票。商场里的人很多，但整个购物过程非常愉快。回到家后，我试用了新买的耳机，发现音质非常好，我对这次购物非常满意。
通过这次购物，我不仅买到了喜欢的商品，还享受到了打折的优惠。这样的购物经历让我觉得很开心。
