       Objectives:

       * Know the vocabulary used in the supermarket.

Before the life of the supermarkets was different, more quiet and familiar. People went to small local shops, fruit shops, butchers and other shops. There was familiarity with the shopkeeper and good talks. 

But things have changed, people are now looking for supermarkets that have everything, regardless of whether it is large or small.

Supermarkets can be large buildings or small neighborhood stores. Product shelves vary according to the needs of the supermarket, the number of customers and the size of the store, so are the corridors, they are designed according to the size, they have enough space so that customers can comfortably drive their market carts. 

The modal verb can as we have seen is used to express ability.

"People can get variety of products in today supermarket"


in the conversations in the supermarkets the wh-word are used

* Where
* What
* Who
* When

"Who can pay with a coupon?
  - Customers can pay with a coupon."
