Really?
52
Let me try to re -scan the barcode and see.
53
The computer still shows the price of $39 .99.

Great. That will be $85.
78
Excuse me, according to the advertisement in Elle magazine this month, one set costs $65.
79
Yes, the ad quotes $65 for the set, but you must bring the ad in order to receive the discount.
80
Let me check with my manager whether we can still give it to you with a discount.

The manager has agreed to give it to you for $65.

Okay, wait a moment, please.
92
I'm sorry.
93
I'm sorry.

The transaction is not going through.
110
Really?
111
What's the matter?
112
I'm not sure.
113
The computer notes to contact your bank.

Can you try the card again?

140
Here's your receipt.
141
Thank you.
142
Please come again.
143
Hello, ma 'am.
144
May I help you?
145
Yes, I bought this purse last week, and now the zipper doesn't work properly.
146
Can I get my money back?
147
Oh, I'm so sorry, ma 'am, but our store does not have a refund policy.
148
You may exchange it for another purse.
149
Do I have to get another purse?
150
No, not actually.
151
You can exchange it for any item of equal price.
152
Well, that sounds good.
153
May I take a look around?
154
Yes, of course.
155
Take your time.
156
Could I see some of your women's wallets?
157
Yes.
158
Actually, yesterday we just received a shipment of some really nice leather wallets for men and women.
159
May I see the wallets that snap closed?
160
Sure.
161
What color would you like?
162
Brown or black?
163
Brown sounds nice.
164
Follow me, please.
165
Has anyone waited on you yet, ma 'am?
166
Not yet.
167
What can I help you with?
168
I purchased this shirt for my husband last week, and I'd like to return it.
169
What is the problem with the shirt?
170
Well, I washed it once, and the color has faded.
171
Oh, did you follow the washing instructions on the shirt tag? Of course.
172
I did exactly what the instructions indicate to do.
173
Oh, do you have a receipt?
174
Yes.
175
Here it is.
176
I'm not too happy about this because when the color faded, it ruined some of the other clothing.
177
I'm very sorry to hear that.
178
The only thing I can do is refund the price for the shirt.
179
At least you can do that.
180
Thank you.
181
All right.
182
Could you please fill out the return form?
183
Hi, do you need any help?
184
Yes, could you tell me how much this shirt costs?
185
This shirt is $9 .95.
186
That's a very reasonable price.
187
Do you have this one in black?
188
I'm sorry, we only have this shirt in four colors.
189
Gray, pink, blue, and green.
190
I like the one in green, but do you think the colors fade?
191
Oh, the colors will definitely not fade.
192
These are pre -washed shirts.
193
I would like the one in green, please.
194
But can you tell me, do you have a size X?
195
XL.
196
I'm buying this shirt for my husband and my husband is very big.
197
I'm sorry.
198
We only have four sizes of this shirt.
199
Small, medium, large, and extra large.
200
Could I see the extra large please?
201
Sure.
202
Here you are.
203
I think this will fit my husband.
204
And it's 100 % cotton.
205
I wonder if it will shrink after a few washes.
206
Ma 'am, these shirts are pre -shrunk, so you don't need to worry about shrinking.
207
That's good.
208
I will take this one, please.
209
Okay.
210
That will be $9 .95.
211
Here you go.
212
Thank you so much for your help.
213
You're welcome.
214
Just one moment please for your change and your receipt.
215
Hello, can I help you with something?
216
Yes, please.
217
I'm looking for some ties.

Really? Which ones?
220
Well, the ties on this rack are 30 to 50 % off and the ties on this rack are 60 % off.

224
Really?
225
Can I see a few?
226
Sure.
227
They're on sale for 30 to 50 % off, too.
228
Which do you like?
229
Solid colors, stripes, or designs?
230
Oh, I prefer solid colors.
231
Okay.
232
How about these?
233
Oh, these are nice, but do you have a wide tie?
234
No, I'm sorry.
235
We only have the thin style.
236
That's okay.
237
I'll take these.
238
Hello.
239
What can I do for you?
240
Well, I'm looking for a new outfit for this weekend.
241
Okay.
242
May I ask what the occasion would be?
243
Yes.
244
It's a casual party.
245
Would this be for yourself?
246
Yes.
247
Okay.
248
What price range are you thinking about?
249
I'm looking to spend between $150 and $200.
250
Well, we could start by looking at some pants.
251
I like these navy blue slacks.
252
How much are they?
253
These are $60.
254
Would you like to try them on?
255
Yes please.
256
I really like these slacks.
257
What color shirt would go well with them?
258
Well, if you're really brave, I would recommend this red shirt.
259
Hmm.
260
Do you have anything else?
261
We have these silk shirts.
262
Hmm.
263
How much are they?
264
The silk shirts are $60.
265
Would you like to try them on?
266
Yes, please.
267
I like the texture of silk, but I think these shirts are too tight for me.
268
Do you have anything with a loose fit?
269
Yes Do you like this loose fit shirt?
270
Yes, I do.
271
I'll take the black and white one, please.
272
Okay But don't you think this one is nice, too?
273
Please.
274
I think I'm done here
275
Okay, very well.
276
Please pay at the cashier counter over there.
277
Thank you very much for your help Sure. May I help you?
278
I'd like to return this shirt.
279
I'm sorry, we only have an exchange policy.
280
What is your exchange policy?
281
You can exchange this item for any item equivalent to the shirt's price.
282
I see.
283
In that case, I may browse around a bit?
284
Sure.
285
Feel free.
286
Take your time.
287
Thank you.
288
I don't see anything else I like.
289
Is it possible to get the same shirt but only one size larger?
290
Sure.
291
I'll look for one size larger.
292
I'm sorry, we don't have this color, but we do have this size in other colors.
293
All right, then.
294
I'll look at some other colors.
295
Okay.
296
Let me know if you're interested in anything you see.
297
Thank you.
298
Oh, good morning.
299
May I help you?
300
Yes, I would like an explanation on how the extra large shirt
301
that I bought two days ago now looks like an extra small shirt after just one wash.
302
Sir, may I see the shirt?
303
Yes, you may see the extra small shirt.
304
It's amazing how much it shrunk.
305
Yes, it is.
306
It is now the right size for my young son.
307
Sir, did you read the washing directions before you did your laundry?
308
No, I just washed it in hot water with all the rest of my clothes.
309
Sir, the washing directions clearly indicate that you do not wash it in hot water.
310
Really?
311
Yes, I'm sorry.
312
I'm afraid there's nothing I can do to help you.
313
Well, then I guess my son has got a new shirt.
314
Hi, is there anything I could help you with?
315
Yes, I'm going to a friend's housewarming party, and I would appreciate some suggestions on what gift to buy.
316
Sure.
317
How about some detergents and utensils to help clean the house?
318
Oh, I'm sure other people will also buy detergents.
319
What about a nice fruit basket?
320
It's simple.
321
No, I was thinking about getting them something more useful around the house.
322
Is your friend a man?
323
Yes.
324
Perhaps he likes fixing things around the house.
325
Maybe you could get him a set of tools.
326
That's a great idea.
327
I'll get him a toolbox.
328
You can find it in the hardware section located on the third floor.
329
Okay.
330
Thank you so much.
331
You're welcome.
332
Good afternoon.
333
Is someone taking care of you?
334
No, not yet.
335
Could I ask you about the prices for these shoes?
336
Yes, which shoes are you interested in?
337
I'm interested in these two pairs of shoes.
338
The first pair is $65, and the second pair, which just arrived yesterday, is $85.
339
They're quite expensive.
340
Could you give me a discount?
341
I'm sorry, sir.
342
The prices are fixed throughout this store.
343
Could you give me a discount if I bought both pairs of shoes?
344
I'm really sorry sir, but there is no bargaining in this store.
345
Hmm.
346
Okay.
347
A discount really would have helped me to buy both pairs of shoes.
348
Sir, if you need shoes with lower prices, I could show you some.
349
No, that's okay.
350
Um, I'll take this pair.
351
All right, then.
352
That will be $85. Could I help you?
353
Yes.
354
I'd like to return these shoes, please.
355
What seems to be the problem?
356
Well, the sole is coming off of the right shoe.
357
Really?
358
Do you have a receipt?
359
Yes, I do.
360
You may exchange the shoes for any item with the same price.
361
Actually, I like these shoes very much.
362
Could I exchange them for another pair?
363
Of course you may.
364
Although, do you have the same style of shoes in a darker color?
365
Let me check our stock.
366
Yes, we carry a black pair and a navy blue pair.
367
Great.
368
I'll exchange these for the navy blue pair, please.
369
Good morning.
370
How are you?
371
I'm very well, thank you.
372
I would like to direct your attention to the televisions.
373
They're very nice.
374
The overall design is very modern and sleek.
375
How much are they?
376
Well, the 14 -inch, the 20 -inch, and the 21 -inch are $110, $180, and $210, respectively.
377
Hmm.
378
I really like the 21 -inch. Do you give discount?
379
The TVs are already on sale.
380
These prices are sales prices.
381
20 % off the regular price.
382
Oh, but I was expecting bigger discounts.
383
I'm sorry.
384
And I should mention to you that this is a special promotion sale for a limited time only.
385
Hmm.
386
Maybe I should wait for a clearance sale.
387
You could do that.
388
But the model you want may no longer be in stock.
389
Hmmmm...
390
Hmmmm...
391
Hmmmm...
392
Okay, it's a little bit expensive, but I'll go for the 21 inch.
393
Hello, how may I help you?
394
I have come to buy the new
395
Sony stereo, which was advertised in the newspaper last week.
396
Ah, that's just right over here.
397
The price for the new model was advertised at $179, but the price on the price tag shows $199.
398
Yes, the $179 was for the weekend sale.
399
The weekend's over now.
400
But I came in expecting it to be $179.
401
I'm sorry, ma 'am, but as you've missed the weekend sales period, I'm afraid I cannot offer you the weekend sales price.
402
Let me talk to the manager.
403
Okay, one moment, please.
404
Hello, Simon.
405
Yes, can you help me with some customer service, please, over at Sony?
406
Thank you.
407
One moment, please.
408
Good afternoon.
409
How can I be of service to you?
410
I came in expecting to buy the new
411
Sony model for the advertised price of $179.
412
But your salesperson tells me I have missed the sale period.
413
See, it is correct that the sale price was only for the weekend.
414
However, if you purchase the stereo for the regular price of $199,
415
what I could do is give you discount coupons for your next purchase at our store.
416
Okay, thank you.
417
Then I will take the stereo and the discount coupons.
418
Great.
419
Hi.
420
Hi, can I help you?
421
Yes, I'd like to buy a new GSM phone with internet capabilities.
422
Hmm.
423
I think this Panasonic would be the best phone for you.
424
Okay.
425
How much is it?
426
It's only $375.
427
Wow, that's too expensive.
428
The last Panasonic model that I bought was only $250.
429
Yes, well, the internet capability has pushed up the cost of phone.
430
Really, $375 is not that expensive.
431
Well, could you lower the price to $300?
432
No. The best I can do for you is $340.
433
Okay, I'll take this new Panasonic model.
434
Good morning.
435
How are you?
436
I'm fine.
437
How's business?
438
Business is going good.
439
How is your business doing?
440
Our business is not so good.
441
Everybody in the market is reducing their prices.
442
Hmm.
443
Have you lowered your retail prices?
444
Not yet, but when we do, we would like to ask for you to reduce your prices to us.
445
How much of a reduction in price do you need?
446
Well, everybody else is reducing their prices between 10 and 15 percent.
447
Well, as you know, costs are increasing.
448
It will be very difficult for us to reduce our prices.
449
Well, as you know, if we cannot remain competitive, we will lose our business.
450
Yes.
451
Well, we understand and we want to work with you.
452
However, we simply cannot cut our prices by 10 to 15 percent.
453
What is the best deal that you could offer us?
454
Well, we could reduce your prices by 5%, and if you buy more than 50 units,
455
we can give you an additional 5 % discount.
456
Fair enough.
457
Deal.
458
Excuse me, could you help me for a moment?
459
Certainly.
460
What can I do for you?
461
Well, I think there might be some mistakes about phone prices in your store.
462
Really?
463
Can you tell me some more details about this mistake?
464
Yes.
465
Well, the price quoted on a special advertisement for this phone was $25.
466
But the tag on the phone says $30.
467
What is the correct price?
468
I don't know, but I'm going to check.
469
One moment, please.
470
You are right.
471
This phone should only be $25.
472
I'm so sorry about the confusion.
473
I'm going to find out who's responsible for this mistake and have it corrected right away.
474
Thank you.
475
Thank you for helping us.
476
Hello, P &J Flowers.
477
This is Stephanie speaking.
478
Hello.
479
I would like to order a dozen roses.
480
Would you like it in a box or a bouquet?
481
I would like a dozen red roses in a box with a card that says, I love you, from Lee.
482
How sweet.
483
Would you like anything else with it?
484
Perhaps a box of chocolates or a teddy bear?
485
No, thank you.
486
When are you going to pick it up?
487
No. I would like those delivered by 7 p .m.
488

490
Certainly.

492
Thank you.
493
The delivery will be arranged.
494
Excuse me, how much is that?
495
That will be $70.
496
Okay, since I'm not in town, can I pay by my Visa card?
497
Sure.
498
May I have your credit card information?
499

Vocabulary and speaking notes for this lesson
This speaking lesson is built on the video “English Speaking - Basic English Training Module Chapter 01”. The speaker keeps coming back to these words: price, shirt, color, pair. This video has 550 sentences and 3338 words to shadow. The speech runs for 30:45. The speaker talks slowly, about 109 words per minute, so there is time to copy every sound. 84% of the words are among the 3,000 most common in English; the rest is worth studying before you start. 138 of its 550 sentences are questions, so it is good practice for question intonation and short answers.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
