W: Can I help you?
M: Well, I’m not sure. I hope so. You see, actually I’m getting married soon, and my friends want to buy me presents and things.
W: And would you like some things for the kitchen?
M: Yes, that’s right. I thought if I could find out about kitchen things, they would be the best sorts of presents.
W: Well, I suppose the first thing you need is a cooker. Do you want an electric one or a gas one?
M: Hm. I think I’d probably prefer a gas one. But cookers are very expensive, aren’t they? How much is this one? W; It’s 175 pounds, including tax and delivery. It’s a very good one though.
M: But it’s a lot of money, isn’t it? What sorts of things could I ask people to buy? You know, cheaper.
W: Well, you need some pans, won’t you? A set of saucepans, I suppose, and frying pans. Do you like cooking?
M: Yes, I suppose so.
W: Well, in that case, you might like a mixer. If you make cakes and things like that, it’ll save you a lot of time. And a blender too. That’s good if you make soup and things.
M: Hm. That’s a thought.
W: Something else you might use is a set of these knives, you know, carving knives, bread knives, steak knives, fruit knives, potato peeling knives.
M: Heavens! I never knew there were so many sorts.
W: Oh, yes. Come over here and I’ll show you some more.
