Task 1:
Nam: Hello.
Mrs. Vui: Nam, it’s Mom.
Nam: Hi, Mom.
Mrs. Vui: I'm going to be home late tonight.
I have to go and visit Grandma after work.
Nam: What time will you be home?
Mrs. Vui: I’ll be home after dinner.
I'm sorry, but you’ll have to cook dinner yourself.
Nam: All right.
Mrs. Vui: There’s rice in the cupboard, but you ought to go to the market yourself and buy some fish and vegetables. The steamer is under the sink, between the saucepan and the frying pan. The rice cooker is beside the stove.
Nam: OK. Give my love to Grandma.
Mrs. Vui: I will. Oh, I almost forgot. Can you call Aunt Chi, please? Ask her to meet me at Grandma’s house.
Nam: No problem. Bye, Mom.
Mrs. Vui: Bye.
