“Home is where the 0. heart_ is.” That’s so
true. I’ve lived in many different houses during my 1. but not all
of them have been home. When you are growing up, home

really felt like home.
A home
is somewhere you feel totally 5. and want to come home to. The

Home” is also true. You have to have nice feelings about it to call
it home. Home doesn’t have to be in your home 6._ . I’ve lived in

Transcript for listening task
“Home is where the heart is.” That’s so true. I’ve lived in many
different houses during my life but not all of them have been home.
When you are growing up, home is where your family lives. I left
home when I was 18 and slowly my childhood home was no longer. Now
it’s my parents’ house and not my home. I moved around a lot and
only spent a year or so in most places I lived. They never really
felt like home. A home is somewhere you feel totally relaxed and
want to come home to. The expression “Home Sweet Home” is also
true. You have to have nice feelings about it to call it home. Home
doesn’t have to be in your home country. I’ve lived in several
countries and have had a home in all of them.
