Activity- 2

Practice the dialogue with a friend

Malu: Good morning Cia! How are you?

Cia: I’m good. How about you?

Malu: I’m fine! Had your breakfast?

Cia: I just had a banana and a glass of lime juice. Have you finished your breakfast?

Malu: No, dear I had an apple. Breakfast is not ready yet.

Cia: Does an apple a day keep the doctor away?

Malu: Mh, I don’t think an apple a day keeps the doctor away. Fruits, vegetables and water can help us live healthy. So we must drink water whenever we feel thirsty and eat plenty of fruit and vegetables.

Cia: What you say is true. In our family the first food is always a fruit or a glass of warm water or some fruit juice.

Malu: Do you go apple picking every morning?

Cia: No, Malu. We don’t have any apple trees. I go mango picking almost everyday during the season.

Malu: That’s great. Nice talking to you, Cia.

Cia: good to see you after a long time. Bye, Malu.

Malu: Bye, Cia! See you soon.
