Matthew: Steve! Haven't seen you in ages! How long's it been?


Steve: it's got to be almost a year now.


M: how have you been?


S: I'm pretty good. I've been looking for a place to live recently. My lease 1 runs out next month and I don't want to renew 2 it.


M: yeah, I remember the neighborhood. Have you found a place yet?


S: not yet. I am still looking through the classifieds. Wish me luck.


M: well, maybe I can help. Remember my neighbor?


S: Mrs. Zhou?


M: yes, her daughter's having a baby, so she's moving in with her to help out. I think if you are interested, you can come over and have a look.


S: great. It's a lovely neighborhood. And it would be nice to be neighbors again. It would be just like the old days!


M: I'll ask Mrs. Zhou when she's available 3 to show the apartment and let you know. Has your number changed?
