Hey, Matt! Are you ready to go to the movie
theater?
Hi! Yes, just wait a little moment. They
are broadcasting live from downtown. It
seems that a parade has caused a serious
traffic jam.
Oh, really? Is it the news channel?
Yes, they are on commercials right now;
however, they will be on air in a few seconds.
In my opinion, it would be a better idea if
we stay home. Don’t you think? Or do you
want to go in spite of the rush-hour traffic?
Probably. Let’s wait to hear what the
newsreader says.
I’ll prepare something to eat while we wait
for the latest news about it.
You’re right! Let’s stay home, get some
snacks and then watch a movie.
Great! Then I’ll make some popcorn.
Sure, I´ll wait for you to choose the movie.
