This is a scene of a coffee shop. There is a large variety of stores at the coffee shop .
There is a chicken rice store and I think the hawker is chopping chicken for someone who had ordered from his stall .
In front of the chicken rice stall, there is a drinks hawker delivering two glasses of soft drinks .
There is probably another thirst-quenching drinks stall in the coffee shop .
Beside the chicken rice stall, there is a noodles stall .
I think the hawker is boiling some noodles for her customers .
Near the stall, there is a lady eating rice and put all her shopping bags on the stools . There is a group of men glaring at her angrily and thinking how inconsiderate she is as she could easily have just taken one seat intead of four .
If I were the lady, I would put my bags onto the floor that is near me .
Beside them, there is a family eating .
Within the family, there is a boy feeding rice to a stray cat .
I think he should not do that as rice is not suitable food for cats .
The other two people are probably his sister and mother .
If I were his mother, I would scold him in front of everyone . Not far away from them, there is a young couple staring at the inconsiderate mother and child . They look disgusted .
In my opinion, this is a popular but unhygienic coffee shop .
I would not like to go to this type of places .

This shows a scene of a wet market that is very crowded. There are two stalls. The fishmonger is attending to a lady that is buying fish from him. The lady is paying him some money. In front of the store, there is a boy and his mother .The boy’s finger is stuck in the crab pincer. If I were his mother, I would not let him touch anything. Beside them, there is a stall selling meat. The butcher is serving one of his customers. Not far away from the butcher, there is a pickpocket taking the lady’s purse. The pickpocket must be very daring and vigilant to steal a lady’s purse in such a crowded wet market. In my opinion, this is a crowded unhygienic wet market as the stall holders should wear gloves.

This picture depicts a scene of a food court. It is very crowded there. One of the stall is selling chicken rice and the other stall sells noodle. There are three men who are waiting to have a seat on the stool. They seem to look at the lady at the first table angrily. As you can see, the lady put her plastic bags on the stools where people can seat there. There is a family of four sitting next to the lady. The little boy is feeding a stray cat some fish. In my opinion,he should not do so beause he might attract insects and will dirty the floor. In conclusion, we should keep the coffee shop clean.

This picture depicts the scene of a wet market.There are many people there. I can see a lady buying a fish from the fishmonger. In front of the fishmonger, a boy is trying to touch a crab on the tray. The mother is trying to stop him from touching the crab as one of the pincers might injure him. Behind the lady, a pickpocket is trying to take a purse from a middle aged lady's basket who is buying some meat from the butcher. In my opinion, the lady would be very shocked to find that her wallet is missing when she wants to pay for the meat. If i were the lady, i would keep my wallet in a safe place. In conclusion, the wet market is a good place for people to buy things.

This picture depicts a scene of a wet market.
There are a lot of people.
There are two stalls.
One selling crabs, fish and prawns, the other selling meats.
A fishmonger is weighing a fish on the weighing scale.
I think he is weighing it for the woman next to him.
Next to him, a woman is holding the money.
I think she is giving the money to the fishmonger.
Not far from her, a boy is trying to touch the crabs.
A woman is holding back his hand and telling him not to touch it as he might injure himself.
Beside them, a man is holding a purse.
I think he is a pickpocket trying to steal a woman's purse.
If I were the woman, I would take more care of my belongings.
Not far from him, a butcher is cutting meat for a woman.
As you can see, he is using a chopper.
The woman is pointing to a meat.
I think she is asking the butcher to cut the meat for her.
In conclusion, the people in the market should take more care of our belongings.

This is a scene of a hawker centre.
I think it is a weekend as there are a lot of people there.
There is a stall selling Chicken Rice.
Next to it is a stall selling Noodles.
Infront of the stall selling Chicken Rice, a family of three is eating their food.
A boy from the family is throwing the food to a stray cat.
I think he is very inconsiderate as he might dirty the floor.
A couple is shocked to see the boy's behaviour.
A man is walking towards the family of three.
I think he is the father of the family.
Not far from him, there is a woman enjoying her meal.
Three men are looking at her angrily as they don not have any place to sit.
If I were the woman, I would put the bags on the floor.
In conclusion, we should not feed the animals that come by the hawker centre.

This is a scene of a hawker centre.
I think this is a popular one as there are many people having their meals.
There is a family of a mother, a son and a daughter.
The daughter is having a plate of rice, the mother is having plate of noodles and the son is also having a plate of rice.
The son is feeding a stray cat a fish bone and some grains of rice. I think he is very inconsiderate as doing this act will only dirty the place.
Behind that family, there is a man carrying a tray of two glasses of drinks.
I think he is the father of the family.
Next to him, there is a couple looking for a seat.
The woman looks a little wary.
I think she is scared of the stray cat.
Behind them, there is a chicken rice stall.
A butcher is cutting a chicken.
I think he is the boss of the stall.
The neighboring stall is a stall that sells noodles.
I think the lady cooking the noodles is the lady boss.
In front of the noodle stall, there are three men standing next to the table in front of them.
I think they are staffs of some company as they are wearing ties and are in formal wear.
They are looking at the lady eating her plate of rice with stern looks.
I think they are angry with the lady as she is taking up almost all the seats even with her belongings.
It is also very inconsiderate due to the cause of other people unable to have seats to sit on.
In conclusion, I think everyone should learn to be more considerate in the public and everywhere else.
Also, I think a proper hawker centre is where you can enjoy delicious food by yourself or with your friends and families, and i think this is one.
The food sold in here should be quite tender as many people come to have their meals.

This picture depicts the scene of a hawker centre. There are two stalls selling chicken rice and another selling noodles. In my opinion, this must be lunch time..The nice aroma of fragrant was spreading everywhere.There is a family on a table.They look like they r enjoying the meal.Perhaps the woman is their mother. In my opinion the boy throwing food down to the cat is very inconsiderate as by doing that he is making the floor more dirty and attracting more crows. The man hold the woman back as he doesn't want her to lose her temper.A man might be their father as he is holding two cups of drinks toward them.I think the couple beside them was looking at the little boy who was in considerate.At the next table,there is a woman eating a plate of chicken rice.I think she might have just went shopping and bought lots of items. I think she should not do such a thing as it prevents others from getting seats. There are three men who look annoyed. I think they are looking a place to sit before they can order their food. I like going to a hawker centre as there are many choices of food to choose from. In conclusion, this is a very popular hawker center.

This picture depicts a scene of a wet market. There are alot of people here. In my opinion, I think it is a weekend. There are two stalls selling fish and meat. There is a fishmonger weighing a fish on a weighing scale. Next to him, there is a woman holding a ten dollar note. I think she is trying to pay the fish he is weighing. Not far from them, ther is a butcher and a woman. The butcher is chopping some pieces of meat on a cutting pad. The woman is pointing at a piece of meat. In my opinion, I think she is telling which piece of meat she wants. Behind her there is a man taking a purse from the woman's bag. In my opinion, he is a pickpocket. Next to him, there is a little boy and a woman, whom I think is his mother, at the fish stall. I think that he is being scolded for touching the crab.In conclusion, the pickpocket is a very bad person to me.
