Matthew：Hello

John: Hello, my name is John and I'm calling to ask about the apartment for rent. I saw your advertisement online.

Matthew: Yes, thanks for calling John. I'm Matthew. I have a two-bedroom apartment and I'm looking for a roommate to share the rent.

John: Great, where is the apartment located?

Matthew: The address is 345 South Street, Apartment C. It is across from the library and right next door to the pizza restaurant.

John: I know exactly where that is. That's a great location.

Matthew: Yes, I find it very convenient.

John: And what is the rent?

Matthew: It's 800 per month so your half would be 400.

John: That sounds good to me.

Matthew: Would you like to come by and check out the apartment?

John: That would be great. How about 5 pm today?

Matthew: Perfect, I'll see you then.

Matthew: So John, I've prepared a few questions to see if you'd be a good match as a roommate. Are you ready?

John: Go for it.

Matthew: Okay, first of all, are you a smoker?

John: I am not a smoker. Do you smoke?

Matthew: I don't and I'm really glad you don't either. I would prefer to keep the apartment smoke-free.

John: Me too, I cannot stand the smell of smoke.

Matthew: Perfect, next question. Are you a night owl or an early bird?

John: I tend to get up early because I like to get to the gym early and work out most days. I've always liked staying active and fit.

Matthew: Great, I'm an early bird as well and I like to run in the morning whenever I get the chance. How often would you plan on having friends or family visit? Are you very outgoing?

John: I would probably have friends over a few nights a week but I wouldn't host a lot of parties. I'm pretty laid back and prefer a night of playing cards with friends rather than a loud and crazy dance party. My little brother will probably come visit a few times a year but he is really friendly and easy to get along with.

Matthew: That sounds good. I do host a few parties a year but otherwise, I too just have a few friends over every once in a while. How old is your brother?

John: He's 16. He might be coming to college here in a few years. Do you have siblings?

Matthew: I have a brother too but he is older than me. He's married and has kids so he will not be visiting me anytime soon. I think it's cool if your brother wants to come visit us a few times. That shouldn't be a problem.

Matthew: Another question, when it comes to chores and cleaning, what tasks do you prefer to take on and how clean do you expect the apartment to be?

John: I generally like things to be pretty tidy. I'll gladly help out to make sure we keep the apartment clean. I'll do the dishes and run the vacuum often. How clean do you like to keep things?

Matthew: I'm pretty neat as well. I hate coming home to a messy apartment so I'm constantly cleaning up the kitchen and mopping the floors. I'd also help out with cleaning the bathroom and dusting around the apartment.

Matthew: It sounds like we would both keep things clean which is good. What are you studying in school?

John: I'm a chemistry and a biology major. I hope to become a doctor one day.

Matthew: Wow, that's impressive. I'm majoring in business but I'm not exactly sure what I will do after I graduate. Do you have any questions for me?

John: Yes, in general, what are some things you like to do? How do you spend your weekends and free time?

Matthew: I like to go to the movies a lot. I also like to cook and try new recipes. On the weekends I swim, meet friends for lunch, go on hikes, and play video games. How about you? What do you like to do?

John: I love to read and play video games. I also like to go to concerts and listen to music.

Matthew: Nice, I love music as well. Is there anything you really don't like?
