Short Talk 180 (Listen and Read)

Good afternoon, everyone!

It's a pleasure to welcome you all to the official launch of the Riverside Cultural Center.

As your mayor, I'm pleased to witness this remarkable development in our community.

This center showcases a commitment to sustainability with several innovative features.

For instance, it boasts solar panels on the roof and energy-efficient windows that maximize natural light.

Although we're here to celebrate today,

I must mention that the art gallery on the second floor will be closed until next month

while we complete its final installations.

Thank you for your support,

and let's look forward to all the fantastic activities that await us!
