1 Listen and read.
Ann: Hi, Mi. Long time no see. How’re you doing?
Mi: I’m fine, thanks. By the way, we moved to a new house in a suburb last month.
Ann: Oh, that’s why I haven’t seen you in the Reading Club very often.
Mi: Yes. We’re still busy moving in, you know.
Ann: How’s your new neighbourhood?
Mi: It’s much bigger than our old one. The streets are wider, and there are fewer people.
Ann: What about the facilities?
Mi: It has all the things we need: shopping malls, parks, and hospitals. And there’s a craft village near our house.
Ann: Great! How’re your new neighbours?
Mi: They’re nice. Last Sunday when I was looking for the way to the bus station, a lady came and showed me the 
way. I think we will get on with them.
Ann: That reminds me of the time our family moved to Viet Nam. We didn’t know where to buy stuff for our
house, and the new neighbours in the community gave us useful advice. I guess you like your new place.
Mi: Sure. I really love where I live now. PRACTICE
