A: hello, james. Come in . go through to the living room.
B: hi kate…thanks…wow! Look at all the furniture. You must spent a fortune on it! I love your new three-pieces suite.
A: I told you that I had been saving up money to buy some new furniture and do some redecorating. I finally saved enough and did everything at once.
B: good for you! You've got new curtains too. That's a very nice shade of blue. This sofa is very comfortable. I could sit on it all day!
A: do you like my carpet? Be honest! Tell me what you really think.
B: to be honest, it looks like your old carpet. Is it really new or did you just have your old cleaned?
A: well spotted! I actually had it cleaned twice, because it was so dirty. The rug is new. You remember my trip to china? Well, I bought is there.
B: I love the design. I've heard that the actual cost of rugs in china is less than the cost of sending it home.
A: that's true. I bought a second bookcase too.
B: that was a good idea. Before, you had books and magazines all over the room. It looks very untidy. I see you have also put two shelves up for you ornaments. You haven't bought a new tv though.
A: I don't watch much tv nowadays. I'm so busy with other things.
B: like buying furniture and redecorating! Good for you! Your living room looks much brighter and tidier than before. Have you ever thought of becoming an interior designer?
