Interviewer: Thank you for taking part in our survey. I really appreciate it.
Respondent: I’m glad to help! Are you doing it for a research project? 
Interviewer: Yes, it’s a part of our university course. 
Respondent: I understand. Go ahead! What would you like to ask about? 
Interviewer: First, I need to write down your age, if you don’t mind. 
Respondent: No, I don’t. I’m forty. 
Interviewer: Right. Forty. What’s your occupation? Do you work? 
Respondent: Yes, I’m a nurse. I work in a hospital. 
Interviewer: It’s a very important job and a difficult one. 
Respondent: Yes, it’s not easy but I like it. My father is a surgeon. A really good one. When I was at school, I often went to his hospital and I decided to be a nurse. It feels good to help people. 
Interviewer: Right! And the next question is about your eating habits. What food do you usually prefer? 
Respondent: Oh, I’m not very particular about food. I eat everything! The only thing I cannot do without is chocolate. I always have chocolate for dessert though there’s a wide choice of different desserts in our café from fruit salads to all sorts of cakes and pies. 
Interviewer: I see. You should have been born in Belgium where chocolate is very popular. 
Respondent: But I was born in Australia and, to tell you the truth, I’m missing my native country. It’s nature and people. I can’t go there often, it’s too far away! 
Interviewer: I understand. Australian people usually enjoy all sorts of outdoor activities. Windsurfing is extremely popular, isn’t it? 
Respondent: Yes, it is. But I’ve never gone surfing. The best holiday activity for me is camping.
Interviewer: Is it?
Respondent: Yes, my colleagues and I often go camping. It’s fun and a great recreational activity. I feel like a new person after our camping trips. 
Interviewer: And what else do you do when you have free time? Do you enjoy cooking or assembling puzzles? 
Respondent: No, I don’t. As for my hobby, I’d say it’s painting. I don’t paint very often but I like it. I’ve just started to work with watercolours. The technique is new to me but it’s amazing!
Interviewer: OK. Thank you! One more question…
