Interviewer: First of all, I'd like to thank you for taking part in our survey.
Respondent: Oh, it's ok. It's the third survey I've taken part in this month.
Interviewer: Really?
Respondent: Yes, I was interviewed by your colleagues from TV. They asked me about travelling and my favourite cities.
Interviewer: And what's your favourite city?
Respondent: Rome. It's my native city. I was born there but then my parents left Rome for New York. The second interview was about music and music styles like classical rock, pop, you know?
Interviewer: Yes, sure. And for my survey I have to ask you about your age, if you don't mind, of course.
Respondent: No, I don't. I'm thirty, I turned thirty last month and haven't got used to this number yet.
Interviewer: I see. As you start talking about music, what's your favourite style?
Respondent: It's not easy to choose, I like everything, but when I have a choice, I always choose classical jazz.
Interviewer: Jazz? It's my favourite, too. Is your job related to music? Are you a musician, a costume designer, a music band manager?
Respondent: You've hit it! A manager! But my job has nothing to do with music, unfortunately. I'm a manager and I work in a large business centre, which is not very exciting.
Interviewer: It's an important job and it may be stressful. You definitely need some relaxation after your working day. Do you do aerobics, go jogging or anything else?
Respondent: I used to do aerobics when I was at school. Now I prefer swimming to anything. There's a pool close to the office and it's very convenient.
Interviewer: Right. It's very good for the body, as far as I know. Do you do anything else to keep fit? Some sort of a diet?
Respondent: No, I don't stick to any diet though I try to avoid unhealthy food like chips, crisps and hamburgers.
Interviewer: Right.
Respondent: I like rice. I cook it with vegetables, fish and meat. In fact, rice is the basis of my daily menu. And even for dessert I often have rice pudding.
Interviewer: Well, to stay on this theme, the desserts are delicious food, I would like to ask you one more question.
