  Conversation One
  M: Good morning, Miss Wang. Can I help you?
  W: Yes, I’d like to get some insurance for the contents of my home。
  M: Fine! When did you move into the house?
  W: A couple of weeks ago. And it’s an apartment actually. I was told by the landlord that it would be better to get some insurance for the furniture and other personal possessions。
  M: Yes, it’s true. What kind of apartment is it?
  W: A two-bedroom apartment with a basement。
  M: What floor is it on?
  W: Why do you need to know that?
  M: Because it affects the cost of insurance. For an apartment on the ground floor, there are more chances of break-ins。
  W: Really? I didn’t know that. It’s on the third, no, … second floor。
  M: Second? How much is the rent?
  W: It’s 34 dollars per week。
  M: Good! Where is it located?
  W: North King Avenue。
  M: Ok. Take this form to that girl. She’ll calculate the cost of insurance for you。
  W: Thank you. Bye。

  Conversation Two
  W: Hello. Sunnyside Inn. May I help you?
  M: Yes, I’d like to reserve a room for two on the 21st of March。
  W: Okay. Let me check our books here for a moment. The 21st of May, right?
  M: No. March, not May。
  W: Oh, sorry. Let me see here. Hmmm。
  M: Are you all booked that night?
  W: Well, we do have one suite available, complete with a kitchenette and a sauna bath. And the view of the city is great, too。
  M: How much is that?
  W: It’s only $200 dollars, plus a 10% room tax。
  M: Oh, that’s a little too expensive for me. Do you have a cheaper room available either on the 20th or the 22nd?
  W: Well, would you like a smoking or a non-smoking room?
  M: Non-smoking, please。
  W: Okay, we do have a few rooms available on the 20th; we’re full on the 22nd, unless you want a smoking room。
  M: Well, how much is the non-smoking room on the 20th?
  W: $80 dollars, plus the 10% room tax。
  M: Okay, that’ll be fine。
  W: All right. Could I have your name, please?
  M: Yes. Bob Maexner。
  W: How do you spell your last name, Mr. Maexner?
