Dad: Hi! Did 1 you have a good day?
Jasmine 2: Yes, I did. Dad, may I have a pet?
Dad: Why do you ask that?
Jasmine: My friend Sophy got 3 a puppy 4 for her birthday.
Dad: That was 5 nice. But you have to look after a puppy.
Jasmine: I could 6 look after a pet. I would 7 do everything.
Dad: A puppy makes a lot of work. Mom doesn't have the time to take him for walks.
Jasmine: I would take him for walks.
Dad: In the rain? Every day? I would have to come with you. But I have to work hard at the office.
Jasmine: Oh, Dad, Sophy's puppy sounds so lovely. He is brown and white and she loves him very much.
Dad: Jasmine, we live in an apartment 8. Sophy lives in a house with a big garden. There is not so much room
here. I do have an idea, though 9.
Jasmine: What is it?
Dad: You could have a hamster 10 or a guinea-pig. They are much easier to look after and they can be great fun.
Jasmine: Some of my friends have hamsters 11 and they like them too. But I would like a guinea-pig. They are
bigger.
Dad: Yes, they are. And they can be very friendly 12. You must be careful about what you give them to eat because their stomachs 13 are sensitive 14. But a guinea-pig will be your friend for a long time.
Jasmine: Dad, can we go to the pet-shop?
Dad: I'll ask Mom first, but yes, I expect 15 so. We could make a little home for her, or him, in the storeroom.
Jasmine: There's Mom now. I'm going 16 to ask her.
Dad: Oh dear, what have I done now?
Jasmine 2: Yes, I did. Dad, may I have a pet?
