Sample Answers

Do you like to wear sunglasses? Actually, I'm a big fan of sunglasses. I think they're not only a great way to protect your eyes from the sun, but they're also a fantastic fashion accessory. I mean, you can totally change up your look with a pair of shades, you know, go from casual to cool in an instant. Plus, they're super practical for driving or just hanging out outside on a sunny day.

Where can you buy sunglasses? You can buy sunglasses pretty much anywhere these days. I mean, most department stores carry a wide range of styles and brands, from super cheap to really high-end. You can also find them at specialty stores that just sell eyewear, or even online. I've bought a few pairs online, and it's great because you can read reviews and compare prices easily. Plus, some online stores offer virtual try-on, which is really helpful.

Do people in your country wear sunglasses? Yeah, definitely. I think sunglasses are pretty popular in my country, especially during the summer months when the sun is strong. A lot of people wear them just to protect their eyes, but also as a fashion statement. I've noticed that some people even wear them indoors, like in malls or restaurants, which I think is a bit weird, but hey, to each their own, right? Overall, I think sunglasses are a pretty common accessory in my country.
