Set 2 of 5 A2~B1 Level Conversations

A: Excuse me, sir. You forgot to [?] for your gas.
B: Oh, sorry about that. I thought I had paid.
A: No problem, but you still need to pay for the gas you pumped.
B: I understand, but I don’t have any [?] on me right now.
A: That’s okay. We accept credit and debit cards.
B: Unfortunately, my [?] is not working right now. Can I pay you later?
A: I’m sorry, but I can’t allow that. You need to pay for the gas before you leave.
B: Look, I promise I’ll come back later today and pay you.
A: I’m sorry, but I can’t take your word for it. I need to receive payment [?] you
leave the station.
B: This is ridiculous. I can’t believe you’re [?] me like a criminal.
A: Sir, I’m just doing my job. You need to pay for the gas you pumped, just like every
other customer.
B: Fine, I’ll figure something out. But this is [?] customer service.
A: I’m sorry you feel that way, but it’s our policy to receive payment before you [?]
the station.

A: Hey, have you watched the new show on Netflix [?] “The Crown of Shadows”?
It’s really good.
B: I watched a few episodes, but I thought it was kind of silly.
A: Really? I thought it was really well-written and the [?] was great.
B: I don’t know, I just couldn’t take it seriously. The whole idea of the show seems
[?] of ridiculous to me.
A: What do you mean? It’s a fantasy series about a group of heroes trying to save the
world from evil forces.
B: Yeah, but the costumes and the special [?] look fake to me. And some of the
characters are just too over-the-top.
A: I see your point, but I think that’s part of the charm of the show. It’s meant to be a
fun and exciting adventure, not a [?] drama.
B: I guess we just have different tastes when it comes to TV shows. But I’m glad
you’re [?] it.
A: Yeah, I can’t wait for the next season to come out. It’s supposed to be even better
than the first one!

A: Did you hear about the guy who [?] in love with his nurse while he was in the
hospital?
B: No, I haven’t. What happened?
A: He was in a bicycle accident and had to [?] a few weeks in the hospital. While
he was there, he fell in love with one of the nurses who was taking care of him.
B: That’s quite a story. What [?] after he was discharged?
A: Well, he asked her out on a date, and she said yes. They hit it off right away and
started dating.
B: That’s [?]. And then what?
A: They eventually got married! It was like a fairy tale. He never expected to find
love in the [?], but he did.
B: That’s incredible. I’m happy for them. Do you know how they’re doing now?
A: Yes, they’re doing great. They have two kids and they’ve been happily [?] for
over a decade.
B: Wow, what a great story. It just goes to show that you can find [?] anywhere,
even in the most unexpected places.
A: Absolutely. Love has a funny way of [?] you when you least expect it.
