Dialogue 1

Ann: Yeah.
Jim: How was it?
Ann: I love New York. It's a really exciting city.
Jim: Emm, it's too big and too loud for me. So what did you do in New York?
Ann: Well, we went to a musical. That was fun. And we ate at some really interesting restaurants. The food was delicious.
Jim: It sounds wonderful.
Ann: And the Museum of Modern Art was incredible.

Dialogue 2

Sally: Oh! There's a samba band at, uh...
Jake: Nah. I can't dance to samba.
Sally: You can't dance to anything.
Jake: What? Why don't we go to the new sports bar on, uh, Grove Street?
Sally: Harmon's?
Jake: Yeah. They're probably showing the football game.
Sally: I hate sports bars.
Jake: Really? Why?
Sally: Because they're boring. The music's always so loud, it's difficult to have a conversation. How about a quiet, relaxing dinner with Pam and Simon?
Jake: We do that every night.
Sally: Okay. You're right. Let's do something different.
Jake: I know! Let's go to a movie. 'The New York Killer.'
Sally: A horror movie? I don't think so. How about a romance, or drama?
Jake: Ugh. Hey, look! They're playing 'Chinatown' at the Roxie Theater.
Sally: Really? It's a classic.
Jake: Yeah, I saw it years ago. It was incredible.
Sally: I love to see it again? Can you book the tickets?
Jake: Sure thing.
Sally: Thanks, Jake. I'm gonna go get ready.

B: I'm fine. Hey, what are you doing tonight?
A: I don't know.
B: Well, how about just watching TV. There is a great new comedy tonight.
A: No, I don't feel like it.
B: Why not?
A: Because I don't want to stay home tonight.
B: Well, we can go out for a drink and see a movie.
A: Maybe, what else is going on?
B: Well, we could try that new Chinese restaurant. What do you want to do?
A: Well, why don't we see the free light show.
