PART B_1

Let’s read the dialogue. I will play Ron and you will play Emma. Then, we’ll switch roles.

PART B_2

Have you been to any museum, Emma?

Yes, Ron. We visited a museum for our field trip last month.

That’s nice! What kind of museum was it?

It was the museum of fine arts. It has a plethora of paintings!

I love paintings! What I like the most about them is that people can have different interpretations of what the painting means.

Yes! In the museum that we visited, there was a huge painting
on the wall that really amazed us.

That’s interesting. I wonder how museums retain so many paintings and some of them are really huge.

Aside from the huge ones, I also enjoyed the abstract paintings,
but some of my friends found them strange.

While abstract paintings may not be easily understood, we should not judge the book by its cover.

I agree. Abstract paintings have their message and meaning
that we might not immediately understand.

For sure, painters also exerted so much effort in creating those artworks.

Of course! I also heard that some abstract paintings cost a fortune at auctions!

Yes, especially those rare ones.
