Toronto Survival Guide
Hi Danilo! I’m so happy that you are coming to Toronto! Now, you are from Brazil so I have lots
of advice for you. First, the weather. Do you have a winter jacket? Don’t buy one in Brazil,
because they are so expensive. Wear a thick sweater on the plane, then buy a winter jacket in
Toronto. Do you have gloves? It is very cold here, you need to have gloves too! Prepare for the
weather and your life in Toronto will be happy.
Next is the food. Toronto does not have the same food as Brazil. They don’t eat feijoada, in fact,
they don’t have rice and beans anywhere! The coffee in Toronto is amazing, but they don’t have
the same kind of coffee either. Do you like donuts? They have donuts. Toronto has the most
donut shops in the world! I have breakfast in a donut shop almost everyday.
Finally, the people. People from Toronto are so kind and polite. Everyone says I’m sorry
all the
time. I have many Canadian friends now, and I’m happy.

Reading
Read the following and answer the questions.
I like to go shopping sometimes. Many people don’t, but I do. I like shopping in department
stores and supermarkets because I can find so many things I want to buy. There’s a big,
department store near my house and they sell these great sweaters. I have many of them in my
closet. This one is my favourite. It’s green, like grass and it’s really soft, but I can only wear it in
the winter because it’s too warm. I never wear that purple one in the back of my closet anymore.
It has a big hole in the sleeve. I usually buy my jeans at that department store as well. I need a
new pair because these jeans I am wearing are my last. These red shoes on my feet are also
from that department store. They are very old, but I love them! My favourite supermarket is also
near my house and it has so many kinds of fruit and vegetables. Right here are the oranges and
those on that table are from Florida. This is a watermelon, but it’s yellow inside, not red. It tastes
the same. I usually buy these big carrots, not those small ones in the refrigerator. In the
summer, I buy peaches and cherries. These cherries in my basket are from Canada and they
are sweeter than those from the U.S. over on that table. I also really like the tomatoes at this
store much better than the tomatoes from that store across the street. Their tomatoes are
always green! Shopping makes me happy. When I go to my favourite department store or
supermarket, I always find great things to buy, like all of this!
