W:Hey,Jake.Are you ready for your trip?

M:Well,not really.I still have to buy some clothes.It’s winter there.

W:Is it very cold there?

M:Well,the weather doesn’t get too cold,but it often snows in the mountains,so I’m going to buy a couple of warm sweaters,a jacket,and a hat.I don’t have room in my suitcase to pack a coat,so I’m going to wait until I get there and buy it when I really need it.

W:Do you need any clothes for formal occasions?

M:Well,I guess so.You never know when you might need something for a party or a nice date,so I’ll probably take a suit.

W:Have you forgotten Alice’s wedding?

M:Oh,right!Then I’ll definitely take a suit.

M:I am!I also enjoy gardening,and I really like painting.Activities like that are great for relieving stress.How about you?

W:Well,once a month I go bungee jumping with some friends.

M:You do?That sounds dangerous!Aren’t you scared?

M:Good morning.

W:Good morning.Um_…I’m looking for a place to rent near the university.There are three of us looking together.We thought we might share if we could find something suitable.

M:So something near the university?

W:Yes,if that’s at all possible.We are all students so it’d be good if we could find something within walking distance.

M:Are you in your first year?

W:No,I’ve been here for a year already.

M:So let me have a look at what we’ve got_…Well,there’s a two-bedroom house in Newtown which is quite cheap.

W:Well,I like that it’s very near the university,but if we all want our own rooms,it isn’t really big enough.

M:Too small.Give that one a miss?

W:Yeah,I think so.Have you got anything else?

M:What about this?Three-bedroom flat,close to the university_…It’s $400 a week.

W:Oh,that’s too expensive.

M:Well,here’s a three-bedroom house with a small garden.It’s near the airport,miles from the university,but it’s reasonably priced at $240 a week.Why don’t you go and have a look?

W:All right.
