Read the comments about a new

shopping centre. Answer the
questions.
A
I went to the new shopping centre in Barnes
Road last Friday and I must say its the biggest
shopping centre Ive ever seen! Its enormous, and
it takes hours to go around all the shops. There are
some excellent stores, and I particularly like the
sports shops because theyre big and have lots of
new equipment and clothes. But you have to do a
lot of walking! Theres a floor plan, but it isnt
very easy to understand. If you go past your shop,
you can spend a long time walking in circles! It
was nice to go to once, but I dont think Id like to
shop there regularly.
B
In my opinion, theyve built a really good
centre and theyve designed it very well. There are
cafs on every level and lots of places where you
can sit down. To go to different levels, there are
lots of lifts and stairs. I really like the trees that
they have right in the middle with a small lake! Its
good to sit and watch the little waterfall and the
different coloured flowers. You can spend a day
here, easily.
C
At last! We have some good designer shops in
our area! Thank you Barnes Road! Now I dont
have to go to the city when I want to buy clothes!
OK, theyre a bit expensive, but thats normal. I
save money because I dont have to buy a train
ticket. The clothes stores are really, really good
and they have all the latest designs. I also like the
cool vegetarian restaurant on the second level. The
food is delicious. I think Im going to spend a lot
of time and money here!
