Anna: Hey Jake! Are you still studying for the English test?

Jake: Yeah, I’ve been reviewing grammar and listening to podcasts. How about you?

Anna: I’m trying something new. I started watching English shows with subtitles. It really helps!

Jake: That’s smart. Which shows are you watching?

Anna: Mostly sitcoms like Friends. The language is casual, and it’s really funny.

Jake: I should try that. I usually just read the textbook, but sometimes it gets boring.

Anna: Same here. That’s why I mix it up with YouTube videos and songs. Music helps with pronunciation too!

Jake: True! I’ve been listening to English songs, but I don’t always understand the lyrics.

Anna: Try reading the lyrics while you listen. It makes a big difference!

Jake: Good idea! We should study together sometime and share tips.

Anna: I’d love that. Let’s plan a study session after school tomorrow?

Jake: Perfect! Let’s do it in the library at 4 PM?

Anna: Sounds good. See you then, Jake!

Jake: See you, Anna! Thanks for the tips!

Liam: Good choice. Let’s go to the counter. You go first.

Sophia: Sure. Hi there! Can I please get one chicken wrap and a strawberry smoothie?

Cashier: Of course. Would you like anything else with that?

Sophia: No, that’s all for me. Thanks!

Cashier: That’ll be $8.50, please.

Sophia: Here you go.

Liam: Alright, I’ll have a cheeseburger, a medium fries, and a cola, please.

🔹Simple and helpful conversation between two people, Emma (a tourist) and James (a local), about asking for directions.

Emma: Excuse me, hi! Can I ask you something?

James: Of course! How can I help?

Emma: I’m looking for the train station. I think I’m lost.

James: No problem. You’re actually not far. Just go straight down this street.

Emma: Okay, straight down this street. Got it.

James: Then turn left at the traffic lights. You’ll see a big coffee shop on the corner.

Emma: Turn left at the lights, near the coffee shop. Great. Then what?

James: Walk for about five minutes. The train station will be on your right side.

Emma: Thanks! So—go straight, turn left at the lights, then walk for five minutes?

James: Exactly! It’s easy to spot. There’s a big clock on the building.

Emma: Awesome, that really helps. Thank you so much!

James: You’re welcome! Have a safe trip!

Emma: Thanks again. Have a great day!

James: You too!
