Lesson 14 - How About This?

Anna: Hi, there! In Washington, D.C. people do many things in the evening. They go listen to music. They eat at a restaurant. They go to the theater.

Anna: Tonight I am going to the theater with my friends. But I don’t know what clothes to wear. Maybe this magazine can help.

Anna: Her clothes are beautiful! I really want a friend like her to help me.

Anna: Who are you?

Genie: I am Genie! You want help. I am here to help you find the right clothes!

Anna: Awesome! How about jeans and a t-shirt?

Genie: No! Jeans and a t-shirt are too casual. How about something more formal?

Anna: Sure!

Anna: Wow! Genie, this dress is beautiful. But it’s not the right size. It’s too small.

Genie: Yes, it is too small. But green looks great on you.

Anna: Thanks.

Genie: Take off the green dress. Let’s try a green shirt and a skirt.

Anna: Oh, Genie! This green shirt is too large and this orange skirt is too orange.

Genie: Yes, the right size for you is medium. Let’s try again.

Anna: Oh, I don’t like this outfit.

Genie: No. That does not match.

Anna: Nothing.

Anna: These clothes are formal: a suit jacket, a dress shirt and a tie! They look great!

Genie: Those clothes look great … for a man! Something is wrong.

Anna: Let me see.

Anna: There. Now try.

Genie: Oh. Thanks! Now these clothes look great on you!

Anna: They do! Um, Genie, can you put on a gold belt?

Genie: Sure!

Genie: That looks great.

Anna: Can you put on a jacket?

Genie: Why not?

Anna: I love the jacket! How about a hat?

Genie: Why not?

Genie: Mm, take off the hat. That’s better.

Anna: Genie, these clothes look and feel great! Let’s go to the theater!

Genie: Sorry, Anna. I have to help other friends. Go to the magazine if you want me to help again.

Anna: Thanks, Genie. Sure thing. Goodbye!

Genie: Goodbye!

Anna: There are many places in DC to go for a great evening out! And it’s nice to have a friend to help me look my best. Until next time! Bye!
