37. Hello, are you Christi Schmidt.
38. That’s right. So glad you could make it, Annie.
39. Shall we go in, then? I’ve got to get some clothes first of all. They’re on the first floor; we can take the escalator.
40. Here we are.
41. Isn’t this  the man’s department
42. I always get men’s clothes. They’re better made so they last longer. The sweaters are over here. I’ll ask the assistance 1.
43. Excuse me, I’m looking for a cheap sweater.
44. What size is your husband, madam?
45. It’s for me, in fact. I take size 36.
46. Oh, you’re in the wrong place, madam. This is the men’s department.
47. I know. I’ve come here to buy a men’s sweater for me, OK?
48. Oh, I see. Sorry, madam. It’s funny, you know. When I worked in the lady’s department, we had this guy who used to come in wearing women’s clothes, eventually the police arrested him and It turned out he was married with 3 kids, just goes to show you a sweater, madam did you want one without sleeves?
49. Sleeveless, please.
50. Well, this is a very nice little sweater. Very suitable for a lady or a gentleman or even a … Well, anybody, you know. It’s pure wool. Feel it, madam. It’s lovely and soft, isn’t it?
51. Feels a bit rough to me.
52. It’s not rough. It’s so smooth you could wear it next to your skin. If you’ll pardon the expression.
53. How much is it, anyway?
54. The usual price is $85. But as it’s our sale, we’re offering a discount of 30%. So that makes  $59.50.
55. That’s far too much! I told you I wanted a cheap one.
56. You won’t get a pure woolen 2 sweater for less than that!
57. I don’t care what material it’s made of, as long as it doesn’t cost more than$25.
58. I see.
59. This one’s only $21.99; of course, it’s not the same material, or the same quality.
60. It’ll do fine.
61. I’ll wrap it for you then, madam
62. Where do I go to pay?
63. The cashier’s over there.
64. Christie, when I’ve paid for this, I’m going over to the shoe department. I need some boots.
65. Excuse me. I’d like a cheap pair of boots, please.
66. You’re in the wrong department, madam. We only sell gentlemen’s footwear here.
67. I know. I want a pair of man’s boots for me. Do you have anything against that?
68. It’s a free country. Some people would say it was too free. May I ask what size you take, madam
69. Size six and a half.
70. These boots are very fashionable among young people at the moment
71. What a weird 3 color. Are they made of plastic
72. Certainly not. They’re all leather with leather soles
73. Let me feel them. They feel a bit hard and uncomfortable to me
74. Man’s boots are usually hard, madam. That’s how men like them
75. We also have these ones, They’re much lighter 4 and softer and less fashionable in style.
76. Can I try them on, please?
77. With pleasure, madam
78. They don’t really fit me. They ‘re a bit too small.
79. Perhaps, these ones will. They ‘re size seven.
80. Yea, these fit OK. How do you do them up?
81. There’s a zipper 5 at the back in case madam hasn’t noticed.
82. These will do. I’ll take them.
83. That’ll be $29.95, please.
84. Thank you, madam. Here’s your change and here’s your receipt 6.
85. So, did you get what you wanted?
86. Yes, thanks. How about you?
87. Oh, it’s been fascinating just to watch. One forgets how poor some people are in Washdon.
88. There’s plenty of poverty in Germany, too.
89. Maybe. But the general standard of living is so much higher.
90. People have more material possessions, yes. But there’s more to life than cars and video recorders, isn’t there?
91. Oh, of course, Annie. Our society takes all those things far too seriously. It’s awfully 7 hard to talk here. Why don’t we go and have a coffee together?
92. Ok .Fair enough
93. How’s your coffee?
94. Dreadful, It’s almost undrinkable.
95. At least you only have to drink it. Just think of the wretched 8 people who grew it.
96. You’re quite right, of course
97. Anyway, look, what is this all about? Are your really a journalist or what?
98. Oh, Annie, you’ve seen right through me, I’m afraid. Listen, I’ve got a confession 9 to make.
