M:Shopping for furniture can be such a pain!It’s so crowded here!

W:Let’s write down the prices first.A nice sofa is about $400;bookshelves are $250 each;a bed is $120;and a dining table and chairs are $600 a set.You know,I think we can get a cheaper sofa at IKEA,and we can get the bed,the dining table and chairs from Design 2000.

M:That’s good.Wait a minute.One more thing,we need a lamp for our study room,remember?I think we can get a nice one from Pricerite for about $150.

W:Oh,no!Not again!This happens every day.

M:What’s wrong?

W:Look at this mess,Jim!You have your supper and never do the washing-up afterwards.

M:I don’t do the washing-up but I wash the car every week.

W:I don’t care about that.You never help me with the housework!

M:That’s not true,darling.I buy the vegetables and prepare your meals,right?

W:So what!The kitchen’s always a mess afterwards.You always cook the meals and then I do the rest every day.

M:OK,OK,I will clean the kitchen starting this weekend.

W:Hi,Jim.I heard you went to the zoo with your mom last weekend.How was it?

M:It couldn’t have been better.We got there at 9 am and left at 3 pm.

W:What did you see first?

M:We saw the penguins.They were so lovely,all swimming in the water.

W:Oh,I love the penguins.What else did you see?

M:Next we went to see the giraffes.There was a mother giraffe with two babies — so cute — but of course we were not allowed to get too close to them.

W:Did they do anything funny?

M:No.They just walked around and didn’t pay much attention to us,so I wasn’t very impressed with them.

W:So what did impress you most there?

M:The dolphins.They’re so clever.I loved the dolphin performance.One of them could balance a ball perfectly on its nose.Do you want to see some pictures of them?I took a lot with my iPhone.

W:Oh,yes,I’d love to.

M:We would be interested in having you join us,Mrs.Sharp.We know you have a college education and can speak several foreign languages.

W:Thank you very much.I’d be glad to work here,as I have done this kind of work before and really enjoyed it.

M:That’s the main reason we wanted to employ you.Well…Do you prefer part-time or full-time employment?

W:Part-time.

M:OK.I hope you understand that there is just an hourly pay provided for part-time employees,no other money.

W:That’s no problem for me.What hours would you need me to work?

M:You can choose to work either 7:00 am till noon or from noon till 5:00 pm.

W:I’d prefer to work in the morning so I can prepare dinner for my children.

M:OK,Mrs.Sharp.If it looks fine,then just sign here,please.You will start next Monday — the day after tomorrow.Mrs.Clarkson has got a few things ready for you — a blackboard,some chalks,and a tape recorder — and she’ll show you around later.

W:Thank you.
