It is possible that shop assistants will spend too much time checking the customers’ ID cards and this will result in more time waiting for the rest.

Hi Tara,
First, thank you for this week’s audio news report.
Second, I don’t know why, but I feel your voice is very nicer than other news reports that I had heard before.
Thus your voice has an especial rhythm in this news report that I enjoy listening to it very much.I guess you have used a new method in the news report. I don’t know, if I’m incorrect, please you tell me.
Third, I know English Club has a lot of students that many of them, maybe, listen to these news reports, but I’m surprised why don’t they leave their comments here?
I hope other students to tell us their opinions about my feeling on the especial rhythm in this news report.
Teacher Tara,
Thank you for your beautiful pronunciation.
Best wishes and take care of yourself good,
Bijan from the Persian Gulf
