Barbara:oh, hi Lucas, come on in. I’m Barbara. Nice to meet you.

L:nice to meet you too.

B: would you like something to drink? I’ve got tea and some grape juice.

L: thanks. Some tea would be nice. Chinese tea is great. I really like your tea set. Where did you get it?

B: oh, there is a supermarket not far from here. But there is also a tea house around the corner, where you can get tea and a tea set as well.

L: oh yeah, I saw the tea house the other day. I think I might go and have a look sometime. It’s a nice neighborhood here.

B: you are right about that. It’s quiet and very convenient. You can get to the bus and the subway stations within ten minutes’walk. There’s a grocery store, a book store, a gym, and many restaurants along the street.

L: there’s a gym nearby? That’s exciting! I really want to start to go to gym as soon as possible. I’ve been lazy this summer holiday and have put on some weight.

B: well, if you want we can go together sometime. Actually I was thinking of going this afternoon, if you like, you can join me and I can show you the beighborhood along the way.

L: that would be wonderful. Thanks!
