Describe a tall
building in your hometown you like or dislike
You should say:
Where it is
What it is used
for
What it looks like
And explain why you like or
dislike it.
I'm going to talk about my dormitory
building, which is on my university campus. It's in the south of the university, not very far from
the south gate. My university is in the northwestern suburb of my hometown, not in the city center, so
if I'm not mistaken, this 23-storey building is the tallest in the area.
Like I said before, it's a dormitory
building. It accommodates about 1000 students, freshmen and sophomores. All junior and senior students
live in another building, close to the north gate of the university.
What it looks like ...well It's just a
regular-looking building, greyish in color. Grey is the most common color when it comes to buildings in
China. But what's special about this building is that the windows are pretty big. They're
extraordinarily big so they can let in more sunshine and air. All rooms in this building are
well-ventilated, which is pretty good.
I think this building a lot because ...
well, first of all, I've been living there for 2 years already, so I'm quite attached to it.
Apart from that, I live on the 7th floor, which I think is perfect. Most of the time, I take the
elevator, but from time to time, I take the stairs and walk up. It's great cardiovascular exercise I
suppose. Walking up and down helps me keep fit and stay in shape .
