“Car Insurance – Script”


Listening Exercise

Listen to the recording on car insurance and read along with the conversation.

Man: Honey. Where are my keys to the car? I need to go to work now.

Woman: Here. Take this.

Man: What’s this?

Woman: It’s the bus schedule. You’d better hurry or you’re gonna [going to] miss it.

Man: What do you mean? I want to drive to work.

Woman: Well, you can’t, at least not today.

Man: Huh?

Woman: Listen. You’ve had two speeding tickets over the last couple months, and you had that car accident last week.

Man: What? That wasn’t my fault.

Woman: Really? You ran into a police car sitting alongside the road because you were distracted while texting on your phone.

Man: Wait! There’s more to the story than that.

Woman: And when I called the car insurance the other day, they said our insurance rates are going up a lot, especially if you stay on the insurance.

Man: What?

Woman: But, you can still save us money if you take a defensive driving course.

Man: A what? No.

Woman: And it’s only $250 for the 15-hour class.

Man: What? That’s a rip off. I can’t fork out that kind of money for a course like that. Do they think I’m loaded or something?

Woman: And this is a course that you have to take in person. [Ugh!] You can’t do it online.

Man: What?

Woman: Let’s talk about this after your bus ride home tonight.
