Share my experience of travel--1
This time I went to Singapore and Malaysia. The whole journey was took five days. The This trip opened my eyes. I prefer Malaysia, I will tell you why later.
First of all, I want to talk about languages. I recognized why English is so important through by my travels. For instance, my parents went into a supermarket in Malaysia they wanted to buy one a certain kind of medicine medicinal oil but they cannot find it. They asked the Indian looking storekeeper who a staff who look like a Indian, this guy said:" I don't understand Chinese, please speak English." At this time, our hero come incame to our rescue. I said: asked,
"Sir, we are looking for a kind of medicine medicinal oil, but I know only its Chinese name,. maybe you Can show me where they are? are medicine oils."
Finally, we got medicine oil1. There are were Many same similar situations were happening all the time during happened in my trip. We solved them by using English. In fact, everyone can speak English in Singapore and Malaysia, all though although with very they have strong accents2.
Secondly , I will talk Next I shall talk about my trip. I have went to many famous tourist attractions, such as the Petronas Towers in Malaysia, and in Singapore, the Merlion ( half lion half fish) in , and the newly built Marina Sands Casino. We were able to ,and viewed the whole entire Singapore Island just by sitting on the gigantic through by take ferris wheel. Besides, There are many duty free stores in at the Singapore Airport. A plenty of Many tourists to crowded into duty free storesin there where they buy many luxury products. Unfortunately, I had run out my of money otherwise, I will would have buy bought something.
1. Maybe you forgot to explain the rest of the story. Because the way it was written, you could have asked the storekeeper in English directly to show where it was. Or that you could have asked your hero in Chinese and he was able to translate it back into English and the storekeeper went to get the oils for you.
2. "Singlish" is what it is called.
