AT A BOOKSTORE

– Good morning, what can I do for you?

– I’ve come to look over your collection of books.

– We’ve got a rich collection of books: fiction, science fiction, detective stories, dictionaries.

– Well, I would like to see what reference books you have got on sale.

– The section you are interested in is on your left.

– I am going to buy two reference books: a hard cover and a paper back.

– Anything else?

– These are all books you lend out, am I right?

– Sure. They are part of our lending library collection. The section you are standing by contains fiction.

– I see. I want to take two books: one for myself and the other one for my son.

– Excuse me, how old is your son?

– He is fifteen years old. He is fond of science-fiction.

– I recommend you to take this book. It enjoys great popularity among teenagers.

– Thanks.

– What kind of books are you interested in?

– I like detective stories.

– They are over there. Have you chosen any book?

– Yes, I have. I’ll take this one.

–Oh, it has been on the best-seller list for more than two months.

– If it is so popular, why is it that the book is still available here?

– It can easily be explained. There is a very great demand for it, so we have about ten copies of the book. It is always available.

– Thank you for the information.

– Thank you. Come again. If you are interested in any book which is not available, I can let you know when it comes in, or I can order it for you.

– Thanks. Don’t bother.

AT THE LIBRARY

– Have you got any interesting English books?

– Yes, we have some. Which English writers do you like?

– I like Dickens. I’ve read a lot of books by Dickens.

– Did you read them in English or in Russian?

– I read them in Russian in my childhood. I didn’t know English then.

–When did you begin learning English?

–Two years ago.

–Then don’t take any books by Dickens now. They are too difficult for you. Take a book by Oscar Wilde or Jack London. Their books are easy.

– All right. Please show me some books by Oscar Wilde, but don’t bring “The picture of Dorian gray”. I’ve just read it.

– Oh, I’m very sorry, but we haven’t got any books by Oscar Wilde in at the moment. I advise you to take a book by Jack London. Shall I get you “Martin Eden” or “White Fang”?

– Please give me “White Fang”.

– Here it is.

– Thank you very much.
