STEP 1:
LISTEN TO THE AUDIO
My parents received good news. My dad got a promotion at work. My mom wants to celebrate. We decide to dine out tonight. We are going to go to his favorite restaurant. It is a special occasion. My mom made a reservation for 6 o'clock. We asked for a table by the window. The restaurant overlooks the bay. It has a beautiful view. At night, you can see the stars in the sky. I am going to order spaghetti. I always order the same dish. The chef at the restaurant makes great food. It is the best restaurant in town. Someday, I want to cook for my parents. I hope to go to culinary school and learn about cooking. I hope to open a restaurant one day. I need to finish my homework before my dad comes home. After I finish my homework, I will make a card for him. I want to congratulate him on his promotion. I am going to draw a picture of him in his suit and carrying his briefcase. I have to start my homework now.
