About this lesson
You learn to answer a delivery rider's phone call, say which floor you live on, and ask them to wait at the door.
How to practise
- Learn the phrases on the first card: these are the lines you will say in the situation.
- When you see 你会怎么说？, answer out loud in your own words before the real line plays, then repeat it.
- Keep the phrasebook at the end: the phrases, what you will hear, and a tip for the real thing.
