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.
