M: Hi. Come in.
W: Hi. I stopped by to see if you were still looking for a roommate to share your house.
M: Sure, I am. (1) _____________________________________. Let me show you the place.Here’s the living room.
W: Oh. It looks like you could use a new carpet... and those stains?
M: Well. I know it needs to be cleaned,but I just don’t have the money to do it right now.
W: And what about the kitchen?
M: Right this way. Look.It’s completely furnished with all the latest, appliances except ...
W: What?
M: Well, the refrigerator door is broken and it won’t shut all the way.It needs fixing, but don’t worry.(2) _________________________________________.
W: Great.
M: Ah. It isn’t that bad.
W: Well how about the bathroom?
M: Well.... It is fine, but, uh,the tiles in the bathroom need to be replaced,
and the window needs fixing.
W: Let me see. The tile... what?The window? Where’s the window pane?
M: Well, that’s another slight problem.I’ve put up a piece of cardboard to keep out the rain and snow,and if it gets a little cold, you can always turn on the heat.
W: Hey, I think I’ve seen enough.(3) _________________________________________.
M: So what do you think?You really can’t beat a place like this for $450 a month.So it has its problems, but we can fix those.
W: No, thank you. I think I’ve seen enough.
ever since I cut back on my working hours to go to school, I really had a tight budget
I've just pushed a box against it to keep it shut
I can't believed you've survived under these conditions.
