English Conversation/Dialogue

At a Supermarket

先週月曜日に近所のスーパーに行くと、新しく寿司コーナーが出来ていました。私は寿司コーナーができることを全然知らなかったのでとてもびっくりしました。思わず寿司コーナーの写真を撮り、パートナーに送りました。
このスーパーはREWEという名前のスーパーで、ドイツ中にあるスーパーです。私は大きな町のREWEには寿司コーナーがあることは知っていました。でも私の住んでいる町は小さく、田舎なので、寿司コーナーができると思っていませんでした。
この寿司コーナーには2、３人の寿司を作る人がいて、そこで作って冷蔵庫に並べて売っています。サーモンやアボガドの寿司、最近人気のポケも売っています。
ドイツ人の生徒にREWEの寿司について聞くと、「ポケがとてもおいしい。」と言っていたので、近いうちにポケを買ってみたいと思います。
皆さんの町ではおいしいお寿司が食べられますか？どんなお寿司が好きですか？よかったら私のレッスンに来て教えてください。

寿司コーナー：すしコーナー　shushi section
びっくりしました：I’m surprised
思わず：unintentionally
ドイツ中：どいつじゅう　throughout Germany
田舎：いなか rural area, country side
