EXERCISE 實戰演練
Question: Talk about your family and how close you are.
I have a great extended family with aunts and uncles and cousins spread out all over the world. My grandmom is the oldest of six, so she had lots of brothers and sisters. We try to get together once in a while and keep in touch through telephone or some other Internet means. But the real joy of my life is my immediate family with my parents and my brother. We are very close and usually spend time together on the weekend. We often go for a walk together, do the grocery shopping in the mall, and sometimes watch a movie in the movie theater.
