Anna: Hi, Tom! It's Anna.

Tom: Hi, Anna! How are you?

Anna: I'm bored. What are you doing?

Tom: I'm watching TV.

Anna: What are you watching?

Tom: I'm watching a cooking show. They are making pasta.

Anna: Do you like cooking shows?

Tom: Yes, I do. I watch them every week.

Anna: Really? I don't like them. I think they are boring.

Tom: Oh, I think they are fun. I like to cook at home.

Anna: What time does the show finish?

Tom: It finishes at 3 o'clock. What about you? What are you doing?

Anna: I'm not doing anything. I'm just sitting at home.

Tom: Why don't you come over?

Anna: Maybe! What are you doing after the show?

Tom: I'm going to the park. I want to walk and get some ice cream.

Anna: Oh, that sounds nice!

Tom: Yes, the weather is really good today. It's sunny, and the park is near my house.

Anna: OK, I can come. What time are you going to the park?

Tom: I will go around 4 o'clock.

Anna: Great! I can come to your house at 3:30.

Tom: Cool! We can walk to the park together.

Anna: Do you always go to the park on Saturdays?

Tom: Yes, I go there every weekend. It's relaxing.

Anna: Do you go alone, or with friends?

Tom: Sometimes I go alone, but I often go with my friend Paul.

Anna: I like the park too. It's a good place to walk.

Tom: Yes! And the ice cream there is really good.

Anna: What flavour do you like?

Tom: I like chocolate. What about you?

Anna: I like vanilla.

Tom: Perfect! We can get ice cream and sit by the lake.

Anna: That sounds great! I'm excited now. I will see you soon.

Tom: See you at 3:30!

Anna: Bye, Tom!

Tom: Bye, Anna!
