Gabrielle: Hello!

　　Todd: How are you doing today?

　　Gabrielle: Good thanks.

　　Todd: Now, Grabrielle, I hear that you are going back home to New Zealand

　　Gabrielle: That's right. I'm going home for summer.

　　Todd: OK. What are your plans?

　　Gabrielle: Probably a week relaxing, going camping, and then I'm going back to work.

　　Todd: Oh, OK. Where do you work?

　　Gabrielle: I teach as an English teacher in Christchurch, in New Zealand.

　　Todd: Oh, OK. And that's where you're from, naturally.

　　Gabrielle: That's right.

　　Todd: Were you born there?

　　Gabrielle: I was, yeah!

　　Todd: Well, you are going to have this short little break, or vacation, are you

　　gonna go to the beach...the mountains?

　　Gabrielle: Probably..probably to the beach and camping for about a week with friends, yeah!

　　Todd: Actually, how warm is it in the summer?

　　Gabrielle: Probably a maximum of about 30 degrees. A nice dry heat! Very comfortable.

　　Todd: So when you go to the beach is the water warm enough to swim in?

　　Gabrielle: No, no, no! We swim but it is not warm. Yeah! It's pretty chilly actually.

　　Todd: OK. Any other plans when you go home?

　　Gabrielle: Yeah, I'm looking forward to catching up with friends and family and animals.

　　Todd: Animals!

　　Gabrielle: Well, I miss my pets.

　　Todd: OK, well, what pets do you have?

　　Gabrielle: Well, I have a cat and a dog and a sheep called Sydney and two gold fish.

　　Todd: Wow!

　　Gabrielle: Yeah! And I really miss them.

　　Todd: I'm sure they're really excited to see you. Alright, thanks a lot.

　　Gabrielle: Cheers!
