Leo: Good morning, Ms White, Mr Webber.
Jack: Good morning, Leo.
Mona: Hi Leo. Is there a shopping centre nearby?
Leo: The Starlight Shopping Centre has over a hundred shops. I’m sure you’ll find what you want there.
Mona: And how do we get there?
Leo: Well, turn right outside the hotel, and left at the traffic lights. Gostraight up the street, cross at the next set of lights and turn right at the pink tower. …Mona: Oh dear, that’s too hard to remember.
Leo: Well then, what about a taxi? You can get one just outside the hotel.
Jack: I don’t mind walking, Mona… We turn right outside the hotel, Leo?
Leo: Yes, that’s right. Then left at the traffic lights.
Jack: Turn left?
Leo: That’s right. Then walk straight up the street (and …)Mona: How long does it take to walk there?
Leo: It takes about 10 minutes.
Mona: Then let’s get a cab, Dad. Thanks anyway, Leo.
Leo: My pleasure.
Joe: Where to?
Mona: Do you speak English?
Joe: Just a little.
Mona: Starlight Mall please. It’s left at the traffic lights.
Joe: Don’t worry, I know the way. Where do you come from?
Jack: Australia.
Joe: Aaah! How long are you here for?
Jack: Three weeks.
Joe: Three weeks in the city?
Jack: No, we’re going north on Saturday.
Joe: Well, here we are. The Starlight Mall.
Mona: That was quick! I’ll get this, Dad.
Joe: That’ll be $6.50.
Joe: The main entrance is over there, on the right.
Jack: What’s your name, driver?
Joe: Joe.
Jack: Nice to meet you, Joe.
