BBC初级口语:购物

STUDIO MANAGER:Callum's just arrived – so we'll start in 30 seconds...

VICKI:Oh there you are, Callum… At last … Where have you been? You're late!

CALLUM:I'm sorry … I'm sorry I'm late … I went shopping … and I forgot all about the programme.

VICKI:Well, you're here now - thank goodness!

CALLUM:Just in time!

VICKI:What's in your bags?

CALLUM:I've just been buying some new clothes – I've got a brand new outfit.

VICKI:Wow! That's fantastic … Because first today, I want to talk about clothes and what we wear.

VICKI:Why don't you tell us about your shopping trip and your new outfit.

CALLUM:I love to try on new clothes.

VICKI:Yes, I like seeing if clothes in shops fit me or not, too.

CALLUM:I'm doing some TV work later, and I have to dress up.

VICKI:Yes, you better wear smart clothes if you're going on TV.

CALLUM:So that's why I bought this new outfit, Vicki. I'm going to put on this brand new suit and tie!

VICKI:Very nice. Well I'm not putting on smart clothes later - I've got to do some gardening so I need to wear my scruffy old clothes instead.
