Scripts
Tom: You look upset, Linda. What's the matter?
Linda: Nothing serious. Just my parents keep complaining about my clothes.
Tom: Why don't they like them?
Linda: They think my trousers are too skinny and my tops are too tight. They don't like my sparkling clothes or high heels. They want me to wear more casual stuff such as jeans and T-shirts.
Tom: Well, it depends on where you're going. If you're going to a party, you could dress up, but 1 don't think you should wear flashy clothes every day.
Linda: But I really want to look more elegant and fashionable.
Tom: Well, have you thought about the cost? Perhaps your parents can't afford to buy expensive clothes.
Linda: Maybe you're right. What about you? Do you get into conflict with your parents?
Tom: Not really. But they forbid me to play computer games.
Linda: Sounds bad. What's wrong with computer games?
Tom: They think all computer games are useless. They want me to use my computer for more useful stuff.
Linda: But there are some positive benefits of playing computer sanies.
Tom: Yes, there are. I can read faster because I can concentrate more. Playing computer games after school also helps me to relax after a hard day.
Linda: But your parents may worry about your eyesight if you look at the computer screen for a long time.
Tom: Yes. they probably worry about it and want me to have a healthier lifestyle with more outdoor activities.
Linda: That's right, I think you need to tell your parents that you agree with them and explain the benefits of computer games
Tom: That's a good idea. I hope my parents understand that. Thank you.
Linda: No problem. Thanks for your advice, too.
