Task 2: Is it true beauty?
Script
John: There goes Camilla. She looks gorgeous today, doesn’t she? Her skin is as smooth as a baby’s bottom. Her lips are a perfect Cupid’s bow. She must have dozens of admirers.
Becky: I wonder what she looks like without all makeup 1. She must out it with a spoon. It’s like a mask. I don’t understand what men find so attractive about her.
John: Do I detect a hint of jealousy 2?
Becky: She has nothing for me to be jealous about.
John: I’ll be you believe in those saying like: Beauty is in the eye of the beholder 3.
Becky: True beauty comes from within. Natural materials should be enough to bring it out.
John: But do you always stick to those rules? When I went past your apartment last night, I saw you in the kitchen with some green substance smeared 4 all your face.
Becky: They were cucumbers. They’re natural healers of the skin. Haven’t you heard people say on TV that they soften 5 the skin, wipe out the roughness, and build strength and resilience?
John: Yeah, yeah, yeah! They wipe out lines and age signs. Blah, blah, blah! See, I can even recite that advertisement.
Becky: You’ve learned a lot, haven’t you?
John: Since you can keep your skin so young-looking and maintain your figure so well, you might as well as write a book on beauty secrets.
Becky: Don’t pull my leg. Anyway, you’d do well to try the cucumber treatment on yourself. Put some cucumber slice on your head. At least they’ll keep that bald spot from shining so brightly.
