3. Let's go to a Chinese restaurant.
| Francis | Shall I get you another drink? |
| Mary | No, thanks. Not now. What shall we do this evening? |
| Bob | I don't know. |
| Mary | Let's go to the cinema. |
| Bob | No, not this evening. |
| Mary | Jane and Sarah are having a party. Shall we go there? Perhaps Sam Smith is going to the party. |
| Bob | Oh. Then let's stay here. |
| Mary | No. Let's go to a restaurant. Shall we go to an Italian restaurant? |
| Bob | Which one? |
| Mary | Franco's. I like Franco's. |
| Bob | I don't like Franco's, I'm afraid. And I don't like Italian food very much. I prefer Chinese food. |
| Mary | All right. Let's go to a Chinese restaurant. Is there one near here? |
| Bob | I don't think so. |
| Mary | All right. |
