〖At the furniture and homeware store〗
<听写方式: 填空, 一空一词, 不用带数字序号>
A: Alright. First thing anyone needs is light to see by at night. Let's get a few lamps.
B: I think we'll need at least two floor lamps for the TV room. And maybe one for each bedroom?
A: Sounds good. I don't think the ____1____ lights will be bright enough. Also, we should get a coffee table and an ottoman for the TV room——I need a place to put my feet up!
B: Now, for the kitchen, we need quite a bit of stuff. First, a ____2____ and a toaster. I think we're pretty set with pots and pans. But we do need utensils like ____3____, ____4____ and kitchen knives. Silverware wouldn't be a bad idea either!
A: Hey——don't forget ____5____ either! For the bathroom we need a shower curtain, a ____6____, and a medicine cabinet. Also there's no mirror so we should pick one of those up as well. Oh, and don't forget ____7____!
B: For the bedrooms I think we need quite a bit of stuff as well. ____8____, comforters, pillows, and new mattresses because the ones our apartment came with are too old.
A: We also need curtains or shades because right now the neighbors can see in. I also want a ____9____, an alarm clock and some clothes ____10____.
B: Otherwise I think all we need is a phone, an answering machine, and I need to get a replacement TV remote because the old one broke while I was moving. Oops!
A: That's ok. No worries. Well, we've got a lot of work to do——let's get started!
