Conversation
Habibi : I
will vote for Anyer
Beach. Anyer
Beach is one of the nearest beaches we can visit.
Yoga : So,
class. Is there anyone who disagrees with Anyer Beach?
Jenny : Um, I am not sure about that. Last vacation our class had gone to Anyer
Beach. I think we should see other options.
Habibi : Oh
yeah! You’re right, I forgot about that.
Jefri :
Well, I’m suggesting Kebun Raya
Bogor
Kania : I
agree with you, Jefri. I
have never been there myself.
Geri : Me too, I am with you, Kania. Seeing great trees and plants must be
exciting. Kebun Raya
Bogor is like a great jungle in the middle of town.
Sarah : I’m sorry guys. I think I will
disagree with that. It’s rainy season now. And as you know, Kebun Raya
Bogor is located in Bogor which is the city of rain. And seeing the intensity
of rainfall throughout Indonesia lately, I think we might not be able to
explore the whole Kebun Raya
Bogor due to the rain.
Tio : I
think what Sarah said is right. Kebun Raya Bogor is not the best place to
visit during this heavy rainy season
Yoga : Well, are there any other options?
Fauzi :
How about Bali?
Habibi : No
way! I don’t have enough money to go to Bali
Sarah : Habibi is
right, Fauzi.
It’s really costly to pick Bali as an option.
Yoga : Okay, class. To save the time, now let’s just write your idea into a
piece of paper and we will deliberate in the next occasion. Thank you.
