Josh: Hey, Shirley.

Shirley: Hey, Josh.
Josh: So how was your weekend ?
Shirley: Hmm, quite busy this weekend.
Josh: Really? Those are hard.
Shirley: Yeah.
Josh: So what did you do on Saturday?
Shirley: Well, Saturday morning, I usually clean the house .
Josh: Okay.
Shirley: Yeah. It’s kind of boring, but I have to clean the bathroom and then the kitchen,
and then the lounge room because I have lots of cats. And the cats leave hair
everywhere . So I always have to clean on Saturday mornings.
Josh: Yes, cats are messy.
Shirley: Yeah.
Josh: So after you cleaned, what did you do?
Shirley: Well, in the afternoon, I went for a walk up the mountain. It was a beautiful sunny
day . There were no clouds in the sky.
Josh: Wow.
Shirley: It was gorgeous. So I walked up the mountain and I saw a ferret.
Josh: A ferret?
Shirley: Yeah.
Josh: Wow.
Shirley: They’re a little furry animal , four legs, tail—not like a rabbit, but about the same
size as a rabbit.
Josh: Okay.
Shirley: And they’re kind of gold brown color.
Josh: Wow, did you see any other animals on your walk?
Shirley: No. I didn’t see any other animals on the ground . But I did see a beautiful bird
flying in the sky.
Josh: Wow. Do you know what kind?
Shirley: I think it was an ibis. It’s a big bird that usually walks in the water. It has long
legs and it was white with a black head.
Josh: Great. So after your walk, did you do anything else?
Shirley: I went home and then I watched some TV.
