And the teacher is really good.

I think he's from Toronto.
Really?
Listen, I'm on my way to the cafeteria now.
I have about 20 minutes before my English class starts.
Are you free?
Sure.
Let's go and get some coffee.
Okay, Camille?
Sounds great.
Good morning.

We need some directions.
Sure.

Well, first of all, we're looking for the Same Day Café.

It's right across from the park on the main street.

Definitely.
It's a very nice place for dining, drinking coffee and listening to some good music.
Great.
And where is the Science Museum?
Well, that's near City Hall.
Near City Hall.
OK.
I know where that is.

Entry is free but ticketed and you must book in advance.
Oh, then maybe we won't go there.
Hmm, one last question.
Is there an aquarium in the city?
Yes, there's a very good one.
It's only about six blocks from here.
It's in the park next to the train station.

You're welcome.
Have a good day.

Hello.
Hi.
Is Rachel there, please?
Yes, speaking.
This is Sean.
Hey, Sean.
How's it going?
How have you been?
I'm pretty good.
How are you?
I'm doing great.
And what have you been up to recently?
I've been very busy doing schoolwork.
I've been studying a lot.
Yeah, me too.
What are you doing this Friday?
Do you want to go out to eat and then do a movie or something?
This Friday?
Yes.
What time on Friday?
Probably meet at six o'clock.
Six?
I would really like to, but I have swimming classes at six.
So I can't, unfortunately.
Oh, it's okay.
How about Saturday?
Are you free on Saturday?
Yes, I'm free.
That sounds fine.
How about six o'clock on Saturday?
Sure, it's perfect.
Where shall we meet?
We can meet at the library.
The library?
The library bus stop, and then take the bus to dinner from there.
I don't know where the library is.
Is it close?
The library is very close.
You just go onto Lewis Street.
Lewis Street.
Take a right onto Garfield Boulevard.
Uh-huh.
And then go straight and the library will be on your left.
And the bus stop is right in front of the library.
OK.
I think I can find that.
Sounds good.
So I'll see you then?
OK.
6 o'clock Saturday.
See you then, Sean.
Bye-bye.
Bye.
Telehealth, can I take your name, please?
Yes, it's Serena Worth.
OK, Serena.
How can I help you?
Well, I've burnt my hand, and I'm not sure what to do.
I see.
What were you doing when you burnt it?
I was making lunch.
Lunch?
What happened?
I was taking some hot soup out of the microwave when it went on my hand.
Oh dear.
It's very red and it really hurts.
OK.
You need to put your hand under cold water.
It's important to put it under cold water for 10 minutes.
OK.
And then what?
Well, I think it will be fine after that.
But if it still hurts tomorrow, go and see your doctor.
OK.
I'll do that.
Thanks for your help.
You're welcome.
Bye.
Tellahouse, can I take your name please?
Paul Franks.
Okay, Paul, how can I help you?
It's my mom.
She's got a problem with her knee.
Okay, what happened?
Well, she was walking along the street when she fell over.
Can she walk?
Yes, she can, but her knee is purple and it hurts a lot.
It sounds like she's bruised it badly.
What's the best thing to do?
First, put some ice on it.
Ice is very good for bruises.
OK.
If it still hurts, she can take an aspirin.
And she needs to sit down or lie down and rest it.
But she's playing badminton tonight.
I don't think that's a good idea.
She mustn't move her leg a lot.
Okay.
Thanks very much for your help.
That's no problem.
Bye.
Excuse me.
Yes?
How can I help you?
I was given these jeans as a present, but they don't fit.
They're too small.
Is it okay if I change them?
That should be okay.
Have you got the receipt?
Yes, here you are.
Okay, well, actually, we're sold out of those jeans, I'm afraid.
You can choose something else if you like.
Oh, right.
Can I try these things on?
Yes, sure.
The changing rooms are over there.
What do you think of this coat?
It isn't too long, is it?
No, I don't think so.
It really suits you.
I'm not sure about the colour.
We have it in black as well.
Oh, I like the black one.
I'll take it then, thanks.
Who do you look like in your family?
I look like my father.
We have the same blonde curly hair and we're both quite tall.
And what about personality?
Who do you take after?
I'm more like my mum.
We're both quite shy and neither of us is keen on sport.
What about you?
I'm more like my dad.
We're both very sporty and we both love travelling.
We're also very sociable and we like meeting people.
And who do you look like?
I don't look anything like my mum.
I look more like my dad.
We're both tall and we have the same eyes and nose.
Hey, Tom.
Are you still coming on Tuesday night?
Why?
What's happening on Tuesday night?
We're going to the movie theater to watch a comedy.
Remember?
Oh, yeah.
It completely slipped my mind.
I'm really sorry, but I can't make it.
Are you serious?
But we planned it two weeks ago.
I know, but something's come up.
I will have to look after my little sister.
Can we do it another time?
Well, I suppose so.
How about next week instead?
Is Thursday any good for you?
Yes, that's fine with me.
Great.
I'm sorry about Tuesday, Danny.
Oh, don't worry.
A melon and three oranges, please.
Anything else?
No, that's everything, thanks.
OK, that's $2.44, please.
Here you go.
And $0.56 change.
Excuse me, I think you overcharged me.
Let's see.
$1.49 for the melon and $0.75 for the oranges.
I make that $2.24.
Oh, yes, you're quite right.
So, I owe you 20 cents.
I'm terribly sorry.
No problem.
Mark, come and look at these photos of my family.
Okay.
So, this is my sister Marilyn and her husband, Nick.
Marilyn is a lawyer, isn't she?
Yes, that's right.
What about Nick?
He's a software developer.
He's very good.
That's nice.
How many children do they have?
Two.
A boy and a girl.
Look, here's a photo of them.
That's very cute.
How old are they?
Charles is five and Lily is three.
And this is my brother Phil.
He's a chef and runs an amazing restaurant.
And who's that?
That's Phil's wife, Monica.
She's from Germany, but she can speak English very well.
She's beautiful.
Yes, and she's also very kind and positive.
And that's their son, Mike.
He's 10.
And these are my parents.
Mom's a nurse and dad is an engineer.
How old are they?
Mom's 57 and dad's 60.
And that's Oscar, my favorite member of the family.
Sorry, where?
There.
Oh, the dog.
Yeah, he's great.

It's right there, behind the sofa.
Oh, great.
And do you know where my keys are?
They're on the desk, by the computer.
Okay, thanks.
Have you seen my cell phone by any chance?
I can't find it.
Oh, I don't know.
Look, there it is, under my coat.
There, on the sofa.
Thanks.
Mom, where are my new shoes?
Have you seen them?
They're under the chair, by the window.
And where's my backpack?
Oh, Ivy, it's by the desk, where it always is.
Thanks, Mom.
Right.
Are you ready, Ivy?
Yes, Dad, I'm ready.
Have you taken your schoolbooks?
Yes, they're in my backpack.
Oh, no!
Where's my passport?
It's on the bookshelf by the window, in front of the lamp.
Oh, yes.
Thanks.
Bye, sweetheart.
Bye.
Stella, it's seven o'clock.
Wake up.
Stella, wake up.
Oh no, it's quarter past seven.
I'm going to be late again.
This is Nick Berry on Morning News, and the time now on CBC Radio is twenty-five past seven.
Oh, where's my bag?

Do you have the right time?
Yes, it's half past seven.
Half past seven?
Oh no, I'm late!

Good morning, what can I get you?
Can I have a coffee please?
Sure, what kind of coffee would you like?
I think I'll have a latte please.
