【巧衔接】
★介绍街区的设施时,可按照一定的空间顺序进行,并且借助一些方位词或介词短语,如 in、across from、out of、along、down、at、past、on my left,以帮助听众清晰地了解街区设施的位置关系。
★there 和 here 可用于指代上文中出现的某一地点,从而使句子更具指向性和上下文连贯性,同时避免重复出现特定地点,提高句子的简洁性和可读性。

My favorite place in the neighborhood is the music club. I enjoy learning to play the piano at the club and I can make many friends there. The club is not far from my home. I usually walk there. Let me tell you the way to the club. After walking out of my house, I need to turn left, go along Chaoyang Street and turn left at the crossing. Then I go down Renmin Road and walk past a hotel and a post office. Next, I turn right at the crossing and walk along Wenxin Street for hundreds of meters. The club is on my left.
I love my neighborhood! It's convenient and comfortable to live here.

Hi, Mike! I know there is a good Chinese restaurant nearby and you can walk there easily. The restaurant is on Chaoyang Street. To get there, you can walk east along Wenxin Street and turn left at the crossing. Then follow Renmin Road and turn left onto Chaoyang Street. Keep going, pass a bookstore and a bank, and then you'll see the Chinese restaurant on your right. It's across from a supermarket. You can't miss it. Enjoy your delicious meal!
