Alicia lives in an apartment building. Dave has just moved onto the same floor. They meet each other in the elevator.
Hi. Aren't you the new tenant in 1106?
I sure am. My friend and I just moved in yesterday.
So how are you settling in?
The apartment's great. I'm just going out to check out the neighborhood.
Smart move! It's a nice area. Is there anything you'd like to know?
Yeah. Are there any good restaurants around here?
There's an Italian place a five-minute walk away. It's worth a visit. And there are plenty of choices in the food court at Fleming's.
Fleming's? What's that?
The department store across the street. Haven't you noticed it yet?
Oh, of course! I guess I've been too busy to look properly. That's good to know. And does it have a supermarket as well?
Yes, in the basement. Anyway, I'm going to the gym for a workout. It's just around the corner. My name's Alicia, by the way.
I'm Dave. Nice talking to you, and thanks for the info. Have a great day.
Alicia 住在一棟公寓大樓裡。Dave 剛搬到同一層樓。他們在電梯裡相遇。
嗨。你不是 1106 的新住戶嗎?
就是我沒錯。我和我的朋友昨天才搬進來。
那你新環境適應得如何呢?
公寓很棒。我正要去附近逛逛看看。
聰明之舉!這一區很不錯。你有什麼想知道的嗎?
對啊。附近有什麼好吃的餐廳嗎?
有一家五分鐘步行路程的義大利餐廳。它值得一去。還有 Fleming's 的美食廣場有很多選擇。
Fleming's?那是什麼?
馬路對面的百貨公司。你沒注意到嗎?
哦,原來如此!我想我太忙了以至於沒有仔細看清楚。很高興知道這一點。那它也有超市嗎?
有喔,在地下室。總之,我要去健身房運動了。就在轉角那裡。喔對了,我叫 Alicia。
我是 Dave。很高興跟妳聊天,也謝謝妳提供的資訊。祝妳有美好的一天。
