experimentar aquele vestido azul"). Há a negociação de tamanho e cor e, no final, 
a cliente decide experimentar o vestido de tamanho pequeno. É, portanto, 
direcionada ao provador: Can you please come this way, madam? (“Por favor, 
senhora, venha comigo”).

b) In a clothing store. 
c) In a drugstore. 
d) In a hotel.

indicam um diálogo de compra e há indicações lexicais de que a compra é de 
roupa: coat (“casaco”), size (“tamanho”), medium (“médio”), samples (“modelos”). 
Por isso, é possível deduzir que o diálogo acontece em uma loja de roupas.

passagem aérea: schedule (“agendar”/“marcar”/“reservar”), trip (“viagem”), flight 
(“voo”), round trip (“viagem de ida e volta”), business/economy class ticket 
(“passagem na classe econômica/executiva”). Por isso, é possível deduzir que o 
diálogo acontece em uma agência de viagem.
