Conversation 1

Alexis: Hi, I’m Alexis.

Joe: Nice to meet you, Alexis. I’m Joe.

Alexis: Nice to meet you, Joe. Do you live here in Highville?

Joe: Yes, I do. I live in an apartment across the street from here.

Alexis: Oh, really?

Joe: Yes. I work near here, too. I’m a computer programmer.

Alexis: A computer programmer? That sounds interesting.

Joe: Well, actually it’s kind of boring. I do the same thing every day.

Conversation 2

Alexis: Hey, Joe, is that a picture of you?

Joe: Yeah, that was me 10 years ago.

Alexis: So, did you live here in Highville 10 years ago?

Joe: No, I lived with my parents in Greenville. We lived in a house in the country. I went to school here in Highville, though.

Alexis: Really? That’s pretty far from here. How did you get to school?

Joe: Oh, I took the train to school.

Conversation 3

Alexis: So, Joe, what do you think your life will be like in 10 years?

Joe: Oh, I think I’ll be an astronaut.

Alexis: An astronaut? Are you kidding?

Joe: No, I’m serious. I’ll fly rockets to the moon. Maybe I’ll also fly to other planets.

Alexis: Oh, and where will you live?

Joe: I’ll live on a space station.
