DIALOGUE READING

Let’s read the dialogue below.
After reading it once, we’ll switch roles.

READ

Nicky:	When I was an elementary school student, I would go to school at 6:00 am.
Kevin:	It’s too early! Why did you have to go to school that early?
Nicky:	Oh, classes were divided into two. There were morning classes and afternoon classes. It’s because there were 50 class sections in my school. Each class section had 70 students.
Kevin:	Wow! That’s quite a lot. I don’t think that will happen in my country because of the aging population.
Nicky:	Well, I’ve just learned some differences between Philippine and Japanese schools. Also, I heard that in Japan, schools serve lunch to students.
Kevin:	That’s right. It’s because students should practice eating healthy while at school.
Nicky:	Interesting. That’s why Japanese people live longer.
Kevin:	I’m not sure about that, but you could be right.
