The topic of today’s dialogue practice was talking about mobile phone prices. Based on the course dialogue, I tried to lengthen the situational dialogue and imagine how I would express it under such situation.
A: Check out my phone! My dad bought me a brand new one!
B: It’s cool! How much was it?
A: It’s six thousand and eighty-eight.
B: It’s too expensive.
A: The old model is cheaper; it’s only five thousand two hundred and eighty-eight.
B: Yes, it’s cheaper. But I still can’t afford it.
A: Ah ! I remember that Jenny has this old phone and she is considering selling it. It is said to only sell four thousand. You can consider buying from her.
B: Thank you for telling me this, I will visit Jenny.
For this “It is said to only sell four thousand.”, how does this way of writing it feel? “I hear she is selling it for only four thousand”.
Thanks for your guidance:)
