Dialogue 1: Anna is unsure whether to buy a new laptop in-store or online. She asks her friend, Lisa, for advice.
Anna
Lisa, I’m thinking about buying a new laptop. What do you think I should do?
Well, Anna, a good idea is to go to the store and examine the laptop firsthand. You can touch and see if it meets your needs.
Lisa
Anna
That makes sense. But the shipping cost online is waived, which is quite tempting.
Yes, that’s a plus. If I were you, I would compare the prices and check if there are any differences in the warranty or return policy.
Lisa
Anna
Good point. I didn’t think about the warranty. Do you prefer buying electronics online or in-store?
I usually buy them in-store because I like to examine them firsthand. But sometimes online deals are too good to pass up.
Lisa
Anna
What about the return policy? Is it easier to return items bought online?
It depends on the store. Some online stores have a very convenient return policy, but others can be a hassle. Always read the return policy carefully.
Lisa

Thanks, Lisa. I’ll take your advice and do a bit more research before making my decision.
No problem, Anna. Let me know if you need any more help.

Dialogue 2: John and Sarah are at a coffee shop. John is unsure about what drink to order and asks Sarah for advice.
John
Hey Sarah, I can’t decide what to drink. Do you have any suggestions?
Of course! What kind of flavors do you like? Do you prefer something strong or sweet?
Sarah
John
I usually like something a bit sweeter, but not too sugary. Any recommendations?
How about a caramel latte? It’s sweet but not too overpowering, and it has a nice coffee flavor.
Sarah
John
That sounds good. What about cold drinks? Do you have any favorites?
If you’re in the mood for something cold, you could try an iced mocha. It’s a great mix of coffee and chocolate.
Sarah
John
Iced mocha sounds perfect for today. Do you think it’s better than an iced caramel macchiato?
Both are really good, but I think the iced mocha might be a bit more balanced if you don’t want it too sweet.
Sarah
John
Great, I’ll go with the iced mocha then. Thanks for the advice, Sarah!
No problem, John. Let’s grab our drinks and find a good spot to sit.
Sarah

Sounds good. I’m looking forward to trying this!
I’m sure you’ll love it!

Transcript
Hi, I'm Mark. I want to share a story about giving advice to my friend, Tom, about buying groceries. Last week, Tom asked me for advice on what to buy for his dinner party. He said, "What do you think I should get, Mark?" I suggested he buy a bottle of wine, a piece of cheese, and a bag of fresh vegetables. I also recommended he get some organic items, like tomatoes and lettuce, because they are healthier.
Tom thanked me and went to the grocery store. However, when he got back, he was really upset. He said that I didn’t tell him about the shipping cost for the wine he ordered online. I was confused and asked him why he ordered it online. I thought he was going to buy everything at the store and examine the items firsthand.
He explained that he wanted it delivered to save time, but the extra cost was annoying. Also, the vegetables weren't as fresh as he expected. They looked frozen. I felt bad and explained that he should have bought the vegetables in person to check their quality. I told him, "If I were you, I would have gone to the store directly."
In the end, we laughed about the misunderstanding, but it was a good lesson. Always examine items firsthand when you can, especially when it comes to groceries.
