M: Good morning. May I help you?
W: Yes. I’m looking for a yellow sofa which my friend showed to me. I want to buy one for my sister. But it seems not to be here.
M: I think you are in the wrong place. There are no sofas in my shop. You can buy some bed necessaries here.
W: Oh, I’m so sorry.
M: Never mind. Go down this street and turn left when you see a supermarket. Then you will find a furniture store. You can find sofas there.
W: Thank you.

W: No, he cleaned it last time. It’s your turn.
M: No, it isn’t. You always clean it after Mark.
W: Oh, dear, is it really my turn? In that case, I’ll clean it tomorrow.
M: Clean it now. Only lazy people say they’ll work tomorrow.

M: You are lazy.

W: I can’t decide which classes to take. I don’t like any of the ones I’ve signed up for. And two of the ones I really have to take are at the same time!
M: Pass me the course schedule book. Which classes are at the same time?
W: Biology and Chemistry. They’re both required classes.
M: Let’s find out if either of them is offered next term. Look here. The chemistry class is. You can just take it next term.
W: Yes, that’s true. The only problem with taking chemistry next term is that it meets every day at 8:00 am.
M: What’s wrong with that?
W: I was trying not to take classes on Fridays. I want to work in the lab that whole day. I might be able to work for one of my professors.
M: Maybe you can start work after the class is over. It’s only a one-hour lecture. I’m sure the professor will understand.
W: I hope so.

Hello, everyone. Today I’m going to talk about small talk, that is, short conversations people often have with strangers they meet. Such conversations happen at bus stops, on buses, while waiting in line, almost anywhere that strangers gather close together. As a matter of fact, these short conversations are a good way for people to say hello and express friendliness. Such conversations usually cover a wide range of topics. The topics may include weather, customer service, movies, TV shows, local sports or latest news. But you should always keep it in your mind that private questions about pay, family life and age should be avoided during these conversations. Besides, it’s better to ask open-ended questions. If you ask visitors, “Do you like our city?” They may say simply, “Yes.” On the other hand, if you ask, “What do you think of our city?” They will have more freedom in answering. This type of question also shows that you are interested in them. If you appear interested in what people are saying, they’d feel more comfortable talking with you.
