KEY: (where, why)

Actually, I don?t do much shopping, but there is one shopping center that I often go to. That is ?Xiu Shui Street?, which locates in the east of the downtown of BJ. It is a street mainly deal with traditional Chinese clothes and some other unique, I may say it is foreign oriented, all the shop owners and assistants can speak some foreign language, which make the shopping of foreign friends easier. The reason why I often go is not to buy anything, but to meet some foreign friends so that I can practice my English.

 

Normally, I?d like to go to Carrefour, from which I can buy comparatively better things with the lowest prices, and there are normally all kinds of things from daily necessaries to appliance, so that I do not have to keep walking in deferent stores. But I hate to line up for my turn to pay, sometimes I have to wait for about 30ms, which drive me crazy.
