What’s wrong with the carpet in the living room? [originaltext]M: Hi, Jane. Come

M: Hi, Jane. Come in.
W: Uh, yeah, I stopped by to see if you were still looking for a roommate to share your house.
M: Yeah, I sure am. Let me show you the place. Uh, here’s the living room.
W: Oh. It looks like you could use a new carpet.., and those stains?
M: Well. I’ve had a few problems with some former roommates. I know it needs to be cleaned, but I just don’t have the money to do it right now.
W: Oh. And what about the kitchen?
M: Right this way. Look. it’s completely furnished with all the latest appliances, ex- cept...
W: What?
M: Well, the refrigerator door is broken... a little bit... and it won’t shut all the way. It needs fixing, but don’t worry. I’ve just pushed a box against it to keep it shut.
W: Hmm. Great.
M: Ah. It isn’t that bad.
W: Well, how about the bathroom?
M: Well...
W: Hey, I think I’ve seen enough. I can’t believe you’ve survived under these conditions.
M: So what do you think? You really can’t beat a place like this for $ 450 per month. So it has its problems, but we can fix those.
W: Uh, no, thank you. I think I’ve seen enough.
