Dialogue 1 L(Lily) D(Dylan)

L: It's so great to be here! I'm so excited to help you and my daughter with your new home!

D: We're glad that you're here. Would you like a tour of the house?

L: That'd be great, but could I have a cup of tea first?

D: Sure, I'll just go put the kettle on. Why don't you have a seat on the sofa and I'll go take care of things in the kitchen.

L: That would be lovely, thanks.

D: Do you take milk or sugar with your tea?

L: I'll take a little milk, but no sugar, please. Make sure you let the tea steep a few minutes before you take the tea bag out of the cup.

D: OK. What do you think about our living room?

L: Well, I do like the mantelpiece and the coffee table, but I don't teally care for curtains. Did you get them at a yard sale? They look ancient.

D: My parents gave them to us as a house warming gift.

L: Oh dear. Well, I suppose they will do for now. Do you ever dust in here? It seems a bit dusty in here.

D: Your daughter usually does the dusting, and I do the vacuuming.

L: I see. Well, I can help with the chores while I'm here. You two could probably use my help.

D: That's very nice of you to offer. Here's your tea. Be careful, it's still quite hot.

Dialogue 2

D: Your daughter will be back soon. I'm going to start making dinner. You can just watch some TV in TV room if you like. We just bought a new TV with a Lcd screen. The remote control is on the coffee table next to the armchair.

L: Would you mind if I helped out in the kitchen instead? I do enjoy cooking.

D: This is supposed to be your vacation; we'd like you to just relax.

L: Cooking makes me feel relaxed. So, what are we cooking?

D: OK, well, we're going to make a pan of lasagne, a salad, and some garlic bread. Here's the recipe. Do you want to get ingredients we need out of the cupboard??

L: Sure. We should probably pre-heat the oven right away, too.

D: That's a good idea. Can you set the oven to 200 degree Celsius?

L: That's a bit high for lasagner. I'll just set it at 180 degree and we can take it from there.

D: Fine. I'll just get out the casserole dish, the saucepan, the salad bowl, and the baking sheet.

L: You know, I could do this myself, Why don't you go get the screwdriver and the pliers and go fix the vacuum cleaner so it works better?

D: I don't think it's broken.

L: Well, if it's not broken, then you need to learn how to bacuum better, because it doesn't look like you've vacuumed for ages!

D: Fine. I'll go vacuum. Let me know if you need any other help.
