Text A:
I have some shopping to do today. I want to go to the department store and buy a jumper.
At the counter:
- 
Hello! I'd like to buy a jumper. I see that you've got a wide choice of jackets, sweaters and jumpers. They are really very nice. Please, help me to find something for me. I don't know the latest fashion and I hope that you can recommend me something really fashionable. My size is 40. I like to wear loose cloths. And I'd like a loose jumper.
- What about the colour? I'd like something bright. I don't like the brown colour. I look very pale in brown cloths. Blue or red will do better. And I'd like a jumper made of wool.

- I'd like to know your opinion. Are ornaments fashionable this season? I want to try these two jumpers on. Where can I do it?
- Thank you very much. Both jumpers suit and fit me. Now I know that the proverb 'The tailor makes the man' is true. But I'm in two minds. I don't know which jumper to buy: the plain one or the ornamented one. If you recommend me the ornamented jumper I'll take it.
- Thank you very much for your advice. Where can I pay?

Store Clerk: Let me look. Oh, here's one. Would you like to use the fitting room to try it on?
Marianne: Sure. Thanks.
... a little later...
Store Clerk: How did it fit?
Marianne: Not too bad. I think I'll take it.
Store Clerk: Great. (She takes it off the hanger) How would you like to pay?
Marianne: Well, I'm almost maxed out on my credit card, so I think I'll pay with a check.
