Dave and Anne have two children (1).
Their names are Bob and Katie. Bob is six years old; Katie is three.

(2) apartment. They want to move to a house where they’ll have more room.
(3)

lease and calls (6) the number.
When someone (7) answers the phone
she says, “I’m looking for a three-bedroom house to rent. Do you have one?”
The rental manager is a giraffe. He says,
“Yes, we have a three-bedroom house in a nice neighborhood (8). You can
lease it for a year with an option to buy (9).”
Dave and Anne meet (10) with the
manager. His name is Mr. Rogers. He’s nice and very tall (11).
Mr. Rogers shows them (12) the
house. They like it (13) and are interested in leasing it.
Mr. Rogers helps them fill out (14)
the application. They pay (15) a deposit of $5.20.
The house rents for $3.60 a month. If they
want to buy it after a year, they will owe (16) $250,398.12.
Dave and Anne pay Mr. Rogers $8.80 and sign
(17) the contract. They are very happy because now (18) they and their
children will have their own (19) room!

(1) with two children. Their names are Bob and Katie. Bob is six years old
(2); Katie is three.
The family is living in a one-bedroom
apartment where there’s not much room. (3) Dave and Anne want to move

She finds a house for lease at a good price.
Anne dials the number. (7) She hears, (8) “Hello, This is Fred
Rogers of the Alchemy Rental and Leasing Agency. How can I help you (9)?
Anne tells him (10) she’s looking for
a three-bedroom house and asks if he knows of one (11) they can rent or
lease.
Fred says that he’s does. It’s in a good
neighborhood, close to (12) an elementary school where children can
attend school and play (13). The house comes (14) with an option to
buy.
Anne says she’s very interested. She tells Fred that she and Dave will come
(15) look at the house when he gets home (16) from work.

how much it will cost.

room!
