A:Good morning. I’m thinking about buying some new furniture for my living room. Could you help me?  

B:Certainly. As you can see, we have several three-piece suites2 on sale. Feel free to sit down and test how comfortable they are.  

A:I came to your store yesterday and have come back today to make a final decision. I think I like the black leather suite1. It’s on sale, isn't it?  

B:Yes. The price has been reduced by 50%. It’s a real bargain.  

A:I’ll take it. I also need to improve the lighting3 in my living room. Do you have any suggestions?  

B:Those floor lamps are very nice and you can vary the brightness according to whether you’re reading or watching tv. How big is your living room?  

A:It’s quite large. It’s about 40 square metres.  

B:I’d suggest you buy two. That allows you to change the brightness of the room better.  

A:Ok. I like the design of this lamps. I also need some cushion covers. I’ll just browse4 through those ones over there.
