I always take the train to work. At the station, I walk up to a ticket machine, select my destination by pressing a button on the machine, insert the correct change, and press another button to purchase a ticket. When the ticket comes out, I take it...
I usually go to the supermarket about once or twice a week to buy groceries. Since I do a lot of shopping, I usually need a shopping cart to carry everything. I first stop by the deli counter to pick up some sliced cheese. Then, I look for some fruit...
The new school year is just around the corner, so we took the family to the shoe store to buy some new shoes. Our kids have outgrown many of their shoes, so we first measured their shoe size. Our youngest kids needed athletic shoes for playing outsid...
I eat pizza at least once a week with my roommate. I usually order a large pizza with three toppings: sausage, pepperoni, and green onions, but my roommate doesn't like sausage or green onions, so we usually order a half-and-half pizza. On one half,...
I was feeling under the weather yesterday, so I went to the doctor, and she prescribed some medication for my illness. I took the prescription she wrote out, and I went to a local pharmacy near my house. I gave the prescription to the pharmacist, and...
I own a wonderful dog, and I often visit the pet store to pick up some animal supplies. Because I have a big dog, I have to buy a lot of dog food, but I also purchase a variety of doggie treats that I use to feed him when I do obedience training. In...
Every weekend, I take my kids to go the park to play on the playground equipment. It's also a good way for them to meet kids their own age and make friends. They really like to play on the swings, go down the slide, and climb on the jungle gym. They...
I really enjoy going to the movies with my friends most weekends. I usually check the movie listings in the newspaper or online to see what is playing. I also check the movie reviews because I don't want to see a bad movie. I like to arrive early at...
Recently, I needed to find a book for one of my classes at the university, but I didn't know if the university library had it in their collection, so I went to the library Website and searched for the book online. You can search the library database...

Last week, I suddenly became really sick, and I was feeling a great deal of pain in my side, so my father rushed me to the emergency room at the nearest hospital. I started feeling a strong pain in my side, and there wasn't any sign that I was gettin...
I sometimes drive to work in the morning. I get on the highway near my house at Exit 219, heading southbound toward downtown. The three-lane highway is often congested that time of morning, but I use the carpool lane that's reserved for cars with two...
I go to a health club two or three times a week to stay in shape and stay fit. On Mondays and Wednesdays, I run several miles on a treadmill and then cool down by walking around the indoor track. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I lift weights and discuss...
