It's so significance for me as a teacher to use this video for listening material in terms of describing people, place and thing. Thanks.

Thanks.
-Hi mom! Hi dad!
-Hi Denise! It's so good to see you!
-How are you, sweetheart?
-I'm fine. I miss you both so much.
-We miss you, too, honey.
-How do you like your new apartment?
-It's great. It's cozy (comfortable) and convenient (easy to get to) for getting to college and my roommate is very nice.
My bedroom is very large and has a small closet.
Even if it's small, the closet can hold everything I need. It keeps everything organized perfectly, and is easy to use. I just love it. The kitchen is old, but all the appliances still work.
It has a convenient (easy to use) stovetop, oven, and refrigeration.
The only downside (disadvantage) to this apartment is that I have to share a bathroom with my roommate.
She is very messy (not neat or organized).
She leaves her things all over the bathroom floor!
I'm sorry about that, honey, but the rest of your apartment sounds nice! Could you show it to us on the camera?
-Sure!
_See, all my books are organized nicely on my shelves. I keep my room very tidy (arranged in an organized way).
-It looks very comfortable and neat (in good order), Denise!
Narrator: the room is really spacious (large) and bright (full of light) and the furniture looks in very good condition.
-And there's also a large balcony overlooking a wonderful view. Isn't it lovely?
-Yes, it is. I can see it's decorated with many beautiful plants and flowers.
Narrator: It looks gorgeous (very beautiful) and it seems such a peaceful place!
- Is your roommate around? I was hoping we could meet her.
-No. She has class right now, but she'll be back soon.
-What does she look like?
-She is very pretty. She has long, dark brown hair, and green eyes. She is short and skinny.
-And what is she like? Is she friendly?
-Yes, she is very friendly, outgoing (sociable), and fun. She always makes me laugh with her jokes and funny stories.
We get along great and sometimes we cook together. She might be messy, but she's nice and kind.
-I'm glad you get along well, dear.
-How have your classes been going?
-Really good. My favorite class is Biology.
The teacher is very knowledgeable (Intelligent and well informed) and interesting. She is a lovely, older woman with gray hair. She is very passionate and enthusiastic about what she does.
She spent a couple years studying different animals in Madagascar.
She wants to find ways to use power (electricity) that are environmentally friendly (not harmful to the environment).
She really cares about plant and animal life!
-How nice. She seems to be an awesome (extraordinary) person!
-Yes, she is really inspiring!
-And what class do you like the least?
-I think it's the Calculus. I find it so boring. My Calculus teacher, Dr. Rubus makes everything seem so complicated. He is a very stern and quiet type of person. He's very tall and intimidating (making you feel nervous). He never bothers to explain to us what we don't understand. He stared (stare= to look fixedly with wide-open eyes) us but doesn't say anything if we get the answer to a problem wrong.
He just asks someone else to answer it.
I wish he were a little more communicative and supportive.
-What about your classmates? What are they like?
-They are very interesting because they are from all over the world. We are diverse in race, religion, personality, but we have so many things in common at the same time.
I was able to learn a lot from them.
-I'm so glad you like them.
-Tell us about the part of the city you live in. Any good places to eat?
-You're always thinking about good food!
-Actually, yes! My roommate and I have eaten at many restaurants nearby. They have a really great Indian restaurant. I love the chana masala and chicken curry! It's so spicy and delicious! It's a small restaurant but they make really good food.
There's a good pizza place down the street from us. Their crust (the lawyer made of bread) is flaky (breaking easily into small pieces), and the pizza is really cheesy!
-You're making me hungry! Now we definitely need to visit you!
-Is there anything fun to do nearby?
-There's a venue (the place where a public event happens) nearby where different musicians perform.
We've gotten to see some cool bands play there. They use fog machines and high-quality speakers.
It's a really fun experience.
-That's great, honey! I'm glad you are having a good time.
The End.
