Shopping

Beginner

A: Are you ready to go shopping?

B: Just a few minutes. I need to make a list of things that we need.

A: Good idea. Have you written down potatoes, carrots (胡萝卜),

and onions (洋葱)?

B: I don’t have onions on my list. I’ll add them. We should get some tea.

Is green tea ok or should we get the same tea that we usually get?

A: Let’s get both. We need some coffee too. Is that on your list?

B: Yes, it is. Here’s my list. Is there anything that I’ve forgotten?

A: I think you’ve got everything. I want to got some chocolate and some cheese.

B: What kind of cheese do you want.

A: I’m not sure. I’ll decide at the cheese counter, when I can see what they have. Have we got enough money?

B: We don’t have enough cash, so I’ll take my credit card and we can pay with that. Where are the car keys?

A: I’ve got them there. Shall I drive?

Intermediate

A: Do you do a lot of your shopping online?

B: Not really. I like looking on the internet at what’s available, but I usually prefer to actually see and touch what I’m buying before I pay for it. Sometimes, I’ll look at something in a shop, but later buy it online if it’s cheaper. You don’t like buying things online, do you?

A: No. I’m a little worried about security. You never know who’s trying to find out your codes and passwords. Aren’t you worry about that?

B: Not really. I know that it happens, but if you buy from reputable companies with secure websites, you should be ok. Even though I use online shopping facilities, I don’t think it’s the best way to shop.

A: I’m surprised to hear you say that. I thought you loved anything technological.

B: I do. I’m a big fan of using new technology, but I don’t want to sit in front of a computer screen all day. I think people need to get out and interact with other people.

A: So, how about coming to the department store with me? I want to see if there are any new summer clothes on sale yet.

B: Sure. I’d love to join you. Can we stop by the computer store? I just want to see if they have something.

A: Sure. While you’re in the computer store. I will visit the book store opposite. I like to browse through their books and see if they have anything interesting.

B: Ok. I’ve finished online. Let’s go. I’ll just get some money and my credit card.

A: Thanks for reminding me. I had forgotten to get mine.
Asking for Directions

Beginner

A: Excuse me, can you tell me the way to Holton railway station?

B: Sure. It’s quite far from here. Don’t worry, though. It’s not difficult to get there.

A: I think I’m going in the wrong direction, aren’t I ?

B: Yes. First, you need to turn around. Do you remember passing some traffic lights further up this road?

A: Yes, I do. They are about two miles away, right?

B: That’s right. Drive back to the traffic lights and turn right. Follow the road for about a mile, until you see the plaza hotel. It’s a really big hotel. You can’t miss it. Turn left at the hotel.

A: So, right at the traffic lights two miles up the road, then left at the plaza hotel, a mile along that road. Got it.

B:Then you just go straight on until you see the station ahead of you.

A:Ok. Got it. Thanks for your help.

B: No problem.
