Everyday English Dialogues: Travel, Dining & Study

Prueba 1 — Travel and Shopping Dialogues

  1. Emily: I need a new bag for the trip. Which one do you think is nice?
  2. Laura: Well, the small one, because the big one is heavier.
  3. Emily: Yes, but which bag do you prefer?
  4. Laura: The small one is more expensive.
  5. Emily: Hmmm. I think the big one is more beautiful than the small one.
  6. Laura: Yeah, you are right, but it’s not very practical for a trip.
  7. Emily: How much are they?
  8. Salesperson: Well, they are $239.99.
  9. Emily: Well, that’s a little expensive. How about $220?
  10. Emily: You know what, Laura? We’re going to Machu Picchu and I need sneakers, but I’m not sure.
  11. Laura: In my opinion, those trekking sneakers are not comfortable enough for that trip. Let’s see in another store!
  12. Laura: I want to visit Cusco. I read it has ruins of the oldest civilizations in Peru. It is amazing.
  13. Emily: Great! And what about the weather?
  14. Laura: Well, I’ve heard September is the best time to visit.
  15. Emily: I’d like to take the Peru Rail. Do you know anything about it?
  16. Laura: Sure! It would be great because it takes the most beautiful route to get to Machu Picchu.
  17. Emily: I’d like to visit the ruins in Cusco. Should we visit them, please?
  18. Laura: Of course, we shouldn’t miss them! I read they are fascinating.
  19. Laura: And we can take alpaca expeditions there too.
  20. Emily: That’s interesting! I also read that visitors can’t enter Machu Picchu National Park at night. We can visit it only from 6:00 to 16:00.
  21. Emily: Last year you went to Brazil, right? Who did you go with? I can’t remember!
  22. Emily: Oh, you’re right. And did you have fun there?
  23. Laura: Sure — we went dancing and scuba diving.
  24. Emily: And where did you go after Rio?
  25. Laura: Well, we traveled to Sao Paulo.
  26. Emily: How long were you there?
  27. Laura: We were there for 10 days.
  28. Emily: Where were you born, Laura?
  29. Laura: I was born on July 10, 1984.
  30. Emily: And was Antony born there, too?
  31. Laura: No, he was born in Chañaral.
  32. Laura: Tell me more about your boyfriend.
  33. Laura: Well, Antony made a difference in my life because he is very shy.
  34. Emily: And do you admire him?
  35. Laura: Yes, I do. I think he is very brave.
  36. Emily: How would you describe him?
  37. Laura: Well, Antony is a very talented and honest man.
  38. Tom: Also, my grandmother is really inspiring because in 1995 she started a foundation to help people.
  39. Patrick: So your grandmother started to work with poor people twenty-two years ago?
  40. Tom: My grandmother thinks that she started helping poor people because she was determined.
  41. Patrick: Ah, so your grandmother tried to do everything possible to start the foundation.
  42. Tom: And she was resourceful because she found a way to save money for poor people.
  43. Patrick: Ahh! That’s great, so she was very good at raising money.
  44. Patrick: I suppose that she was caring too.
