Mr Hill:         Good afternoon. I believe that this house is for sale（待售）.

Mr West:      That’s right.

Mr Hill:         May I have a look at it please?

Mr West:      Yes, of course. Come in.

Mr Hill:         How long have you lived here?

Mr West:       I have lived here for twenty years.

Mr Hill:        Twenty years! That’s a long time.

Mr West:      Yes, I have been here since 1947.

Mr Hill:         Then why do you want to sell it?

Mr West:      Because I have just retired. I want to buy a small house in the country.

Mr Hill:         How much does this house cost?

Mr West:      £6850.

Mr Hill:         That’s a lot of money!

Mr West:      It’s worth every penny of it.

Mr Hill:         Well, I like the house, but I can’t decide yet. My wife must see it first.

Mr West:      Women always have the last word.
