I’m Teacher Duncan. I have a question for you: Are you hungry? Because today, we are going to my favorite place in Taiwan—the Night Market!When I first moved here, I was amazed. The night market is like a sensory explosion. First, the sounds. You hear the games, the shouting of the bosses—'Come look! Cheaper here!'—and the sound of food frying. Then, the smells. Some people hate the smell of stinky tofu, but I actually like it now! I 'used to' think it was strange, but now I think it smells delicious… not really.My favorite thing to eat is sweet potato balls. They are crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside. I also love the 'big sausage wrap small sausage.' Do you like that? It is so yummy and clever!But the night market isn't just about food. It’s about the feeling of the community. You see families walking together, teenagers playing claw machines, and tourists looking confused. If you go to a night market this weekend, try to listen to the English around you. Sometimes you can hear tourists trying to order food in English.  You should go help them!  Imagine if you are tourist in another country.  How would you feel if someone helped you?  You would feel happy and grateful Am I right?OUTRO:That is the end of our story. Good job!Now, can you answer the three questions? Listen again if you need to.__________________________________________________Comprehension Questions (English & Traditional Chinese)How did the teacher feel about stinky tofu in the past?老師以前對臭豆腐的感覺如何？What are the two textures of the sweet potato balls?地瓜球的兩種口感是什麼？What does the teacher suggest you do if you see a tourist at the market?老師建議如果你在夜市看到遊客該怎麼做？________________________________________________Vocabulary Highlights:Sensory\t - 感官的  Related to see, smell, taste, touch, or hear.Used to - 過去式\t  Refers to past...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/bgDVp1tmhHocRwizKpwdIa1RZbrvXmzLrM6-qKDqpl8/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9kOGY0/YzQzZWRhMDFkM2U4/MGYwNDE3Njk3NTQw/OTk3OS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
