Nora: I’m going to the shops in a minute. What do we need?

Jack: We’re okay for vegetables but we should stock up on meat. Can you go to the butcher’s and get some beef?

Nora: No problem. We also need bread, so I’ll go to the baker’s. I’ll get some cake for Victor’s birthday on Friday. We’ll need balloons for that, too.

Jack: You had better visit the supermarket then. We’ll need some other things for the party. Get some vanilla ice cream, some butter and some vinegar.

Nora: - - - -

Matthew: Where shall we sit? Look! There are some free seats in the corner.

Kinsley: The seats by the window are better. It’ll be cooler there.

Matthew: Okay. What would you like to eat?

Kinsley: I’m really hungry. I think I’ll have chicken and chips with baked beans.

Matthew: I’ll only have a cheese sandwich.

Kinsley: Why don’t you have chicken too?

Matthew: - - - -.

David: I was wondering if you have my test results in.

Doctor: I didn’t see anything out of the ordinary, but I want you to log onto our website for a printout of all the details.

David: So, basically, I am OK?

Doctor: If there were any major problems, I would always notify you by phone to come in.

David: - - - -?

Doctor: A description of each test is issued there.

Oliver: - - - -?

Emma: Mainly dance, but I also was really into music growing up, so musical instruments and singing.

Oliver: So, do you have any friends that were interested in art or dance that you had in those times?

Emma: Not really.

Oliver: Do you wish that if you were in a group of people that like the similar things that you might have pursued different interests?

Emma: Definitely. I wish I would have done more with dance. I was a ballerina for 12 years. And I gave up on that when I was 14.

Oliver: So Emma, any funny haircuts or anything like that?

Emma: Actually, yes. One week before I moved away to college, I cut my hair boy-short. And then after that, like during my first semester, I’d dyed it all different shades of red.

Owen: Where do you live? With a family?

Connor: Well, I’m staying at a small hostel at the moment. I’m looking for somewhere more permanent. Do you know any good places?

Owen: Yes. Actually, my friend has a spare room in her apartment and she’s looking for a flatmate. Would you like her phone number?

Connor: - - - -

Emily: What do you like to do to relax after a hard day at work?

Grace: Usually I do nothing after work and watch TV, but I have been thinking about meditation. Have you ever tried it?

Emily: Yes, I do Yoga twice a week. It really helps me calm down and relax.

Grace: - - - -?

Emily: A little more than a year now. It’s not all meditation, but you could come with me next week, if you would like to try it?

Grace: I’m not sure if I would like to do Yoga with other people.

Emily: That’s ok. Let me know if you change your mind.

Ruby: I was just wondering if you would like to watch the new season of “Voidlist”?

Mia: - - - -.

Ruby: I heard this one is supposed to be really good! I think you should give it another go.

Mia: Okay let’s do it. Is it on TV or online via a streaming service?

Ruby: It’s on a streaming service, so we can watch it whenever you are free.

Mia: That’s great! I really prefer watching shows online. The commercials on TV are really long and annoying.

Sienna: Have you heard? Sarah is pregnant again!

Charlotte: I had no idea, that’s great! How far along is she?

Sienna: She’s in the second trimester, I think. I haven’t seen her in the last couple of weeks.

Charlotte: - - - -?

Sienna: They want to keep it a surprise.

Charlotte: That’s exciting. They already have a little girl, right?

Sienna: Yes, she just turned two in March. I bet she will be really excited to get a sibling soon.
