,。

There's a snack street beside the school that gets very lively in the evening.

,,。

Dozens of little shops there arrange their goods neatly, and just looking makes you hungry.

,,。

As a rule a snack costs only ten-odd yuan, so students can afford it.

,。

One shop owner is especially warm-hearted and always gives customers a little extra.

,。

That shop had a special price last week, and we all queued up one after another.

,,。

It took me half an hour to get one, but it tasted great, so it didn't matter.

,。

I hear the snack street is moving elsewhere, and we're all a bit reluctant to see it go.
