Q

Do you like to look at the sky?

A

Yes, for sure. Whenever I get the chance, I love to
take in a beautiful sunrise or sunset. Mind you, I do
live in a city, so the sky is often overcast or polluted
and it’s not so easy to catch sight of the sun or
the stars

Take in: enjoy
Mind you: But, however
Overcast: Cloudy

Q

Do you know much about the
stars?

A

To be honest, not a great deal. I mean, I learnt
about the the milky way at school, and actually I
have picked up the names of a few common
constellations from a mobile app. So, I learnt
about the Great Bear and Orion, things like that.

Not a great deal: I don’t know much
Pick up: learn something informally
