Hi! Dear friends, do you know me? My name is Lucy. Let me tell you something about my shopping in the supermarket with my mother.
I often go to the supermarket with my mother on Sunday morning. My father likes fruit very much. We buy some apples for him. Mother likes yellow pears, but the pears in the supermarket are green. We don’t buy them. The strawberries are very nice. Mother likes them very much and buys some for herself. The bananas are very nice, too. Mother buys some for me. I like bananas very much.
We need some vegetables, too. The vegetables in the supermarket are very good. We buy some broccoli(花椰菜). I don’t like it, but my parents like it. I like chicken very much. We buy a bag of chicken. Next I buy a birthday card for my best friend, Kitty. It is her birthday party tomorrow. After shopping, we are very thirsty(口渴的) and we buy ice cream to eat. At last we go back home with lots of things..When does Lucy often go to the supermarket with her mother?
