  Hello, everyone. Welcome to EnglishPod.

• 00:05

  My name is Marco.

• 00:05

  My name is Catherine, and today we're talking about something...

• 00:10

  that I haven't actually seen in a long time,

• 00:11

  but it's very common in the States, especially in suburban areas.

• 00:16

  That's right.

• 00:16

  We're going to get a subscription as the title of the lesson says.

• 00:21

  So we're going to subscribe to magazines, newspapers, stuff like that.

• 00:25

  Right.

• 00:26

  So there's a guy coming around to everyone's houses and he's offering different magazine subscriptions.

• 00:32

  So let's take a listen to today's dialogue and we'll be back in a moment to talk about what's going on.

• 00:42

  Good afternoon, ma'am.

• 00:43

  My name is Mike, and I'm selling subscriptions to all sorts of periodicals.

• 00:46

  No, thank you.

• 00:47

  I'm not interested.

• 00:48

  Please, ma'am, if you could spare five minutes of your time,

• 00:51

  I'm sure we could find something that could interest you.

• 00:53

  I wish I could, but I have to walk the dog and finish cooking, so if you'd excuse me.

• 00:57

  We have a great variety of magazines all about cooking.

• 01:00

  This one, for example, is a bimonthly publication with recipes from all over the world.
