The Home

by Waine Evans

​Read the dialogue about an apartment. In which order do they visit the rooms.

Agent So, let’s start here. And as you can see, everything in this room is quite new.

Customer  Yes. The cooker looks really modern. Is it electric?

A   Yes, it is. Everything is electric, actually.

C   You mean, like the fridge?

A   Well, of course. But look. The blinds are electric too.

C   That’s great! Er … is there a washing machine?

A   Not in this room. But open this door, and …

C   Oh, that’s really nice.

A  It’s not a big room, but it’s got everything you need. There are a few cupboards, there’s a washing machine …

C   That sink is enormous!

A   Yes. It’s perfect for washing clothes. Shall we see the other rooms now?

C   Yes, please.

A  So, this is the next room. It’s got a table and chairs.

C  The mirror on the wall is beautiful.

A  Yes. It makes the room look larger.

C   I can imagine having dinner in here with some friends.

A  Yes, it’s perfect, isn’t it? And when you want to relax before or after dinner, you can bring your guests through to this other room …

C  Oh, yes. Very nice. The sofa looks very comfortable. Er … the curtains are an unusual colour.

A  Yes. You’ll probably want to change those.

A Anyway, let’s go upstairs. Follow me …

C   Oh, yes. I love this. Very modern. That light is very attractive.

A   Yes. And the bath and the shower are nice too.

C   Yes. Very nice. And what’s through this door?

A   Yes, it is. After you …

C   Oh, this is a good size. It’s a big bed! And is there a wardrobe?

A   Yes, there is. The wardrobe is behind the door.

C   Oh, yes. I didn’t see it.

A   So, what do you think?

C   I love it. When can I move in?
