Sample Answers

Do you have a lot of furniture in your home? Actually, I'd say I have just the right amount of furniture. I mean, I've got all the essentials, like a bed, a sofa, and a dining table, but I don't have so much that it feels cluttered. I like having some empty space to move around, you know, to make the place feel more relaxed.

Has anyone ever bought furniture for you? Yeah, my parents bought me a new desk when I started college. It was really thoughtful of them, 'cause I was setting up my own place for the first time and didn't have a lot of money to spend on furniture. The desk has been a real lifesaver, though - it's where I study and work from home.

What kind of furniture would you like to buy? I've been thinking about getting a new bookshelf, actually. I've got a lot of books and they're just stacked up all over the place, so it'd be great to have somewhere to put them all. Plus, I think it'd be a nice addition to my living room - make it feel more cozy, you know?

What kind of furniture do you like in your home? I'm really fond of my armchair, it's super comfy and it's where I like to curl up with a good book or watch a movie. I also like my coffee table, it's where I like to put my feet up and relax after a long day.
