Conversation #1

Man:

Do you like your town?

Woman:

I do not like living there

because the winters are really cold,

and the people are not friendly.

Man:

Uh, That does not sound like a nice place to live,

so why do people live there?

Woman:

It is cheap to live there,

and there are lots of jobs,

so most people stay there.

What about your town?

Man:

It’s nice because it has great weather,

but it’s not cheap,

so you can’t save money.

Woman:

I see. Looks like we can’t have the best of both worlds.
