Script 1

LYNDA: Sara, I’ve heard that you want to move into a homestay family. Is that correct?

SARA: Yes, that’s right. I’ve been staying with my aunt and now my cousin is arriving from

Singapore and my aunt needs the room for him.

LYNDA: Oh, that’s bad luck. Well, I’ll need to get some particulars first. Sara, what’s your full

name?

SARA: Sara Lim. and that’s Sara without the ‘h’ at the end. LYNDA: Mmm. How old are you, Sara?

SARA: Twenty-three, only just. It was my birthday on the twenty-first of August. LYNDA: Happy birthday for yesterday. How long have you been in Australia?

SARA: A year in Adelaide and six months in Sydney. I prefer Sydney, I’ve got more friends here. LYNDA: What’s your address at your aunt’s house?

SARA: Flat one, five three nine Forest Road, Canterbury. And the post code is two, o, three, six. LYNDA: OK. What are you studying now?

SARA: I was studying General English in Adelaide and now I'm doing Academic English, because

I’m trying to get into Medicine next year.

LYNDA: That sounds good, but it’ll take you a long time. When would you like to move out from

your aunt’s?

SARA: My cousin arrives on Friday morning, so I’d better be out on Thursday. LYNDA: What, the seventh of September? SARA: Yes, that’s right.

LYNDA: That doesn’t leave us much time. Right, OK. I need to know what kind of accommodation

you’d like, so I can get you something suitable.

SARA: Can I share a room with someone else? I’ve been alone in my room at my aunt's and I’ve

always shared with my sister and I like that.

LYNDA: Yes, fine. That’ll save you money too. Would you like to live with a family or do you think

that a single person would be better for you? I have lots of very nice single people on my books.

SARA: Do you have any women living alone, retired women?

LYNDA: Yes, I have quite a few whose children have grown up and left home. In fact, I have some

really lovely retired ladies, living by themselves, who just love the company of students. Most of them live in flats, but that’s not a problem for you, is it?

SARA: Not. at all. I’m used to that. My aunt lives in a flat too, remember. I’m not used to a big

house with a garden, swimming pool, pets and all that.

LYNDA: OK, fine. I know quite a bit about what you want now. I should let you know that your rent

will be a hundred and sixty dollars per week. You’ll have to pay me three hundred and twenty dollars as a deposit before you move in. The deposit is as insurance, in case you break something. You’ll need to pay monthly to me, by cash or cheque, I don’t mind. You don’t need to pay for gas, electricity or water, but you will need to pay your proportion of
