T—Transition First, because, Also, finally
I wouldn’t go after fashion. First ,because it costs so much money. You have to keep buying the clothes of the latest fashion and style. That’s a whole lot of money to be spent. Also, It’s energy-consuming. Since you have to be kept checking the newspaper and tune in to the radio or TV for the latest fashion which changes frequently. So it is hard to follow. Then I don’t follow.

T－Transition: first, because, also
I prefer having meals with my friends. First, because I like to talk with somebody while having meals. Like, I really like to talk with my friends about music. And I also think it is the golden opportunity for us to talk while we are eating, by doing this I can enjoy the food better. Also, I have a chance to share my point of view on the food we are eating. Finally, if I cook myself, it’s so boring to eat what I have cooked. I need to share the food I have made with my friends. This is why I am cooking.
T– Topic alone
S– Supporting alone
idea not talkative concentrate
bad for health
indigestion, (personal incident or your friends’ ones)
T—Transition First, because, Also, finally
I prefer having meals alone. First, because I am really a person who likes to be left alone, especially when I am eating. I am not talkative, especially when I am having meals which means I have to concentrate on the food instead of things we are talking about. Another reason why I prefer having meals alone is that talking while eating is bad for our stomach. It will lead to indigestion if you often talk when you eat. Finally, if I eat alone I am not going to have any problems like other people’s terrible table manners. Let me give you one example, and I can’t stand this really. Somebody makes a lot of noise when they are eating or somebody even takes off their shoes when having meals. This really drives me crazy!
