UNIT 2 4 Selling things online 1 2 3 Lesson objectives: • Make and answer requests with can and will Listen to and understand a dialog about selling things online Work in pairs. Do your family and friends ever sell things online? How do they do this? Read and listen to the dialog. What is the first thing Grandpa wants to sell online? Seif: Grandpa, why don't you sell some of this old furniture online? That way you can get some money for it. Grandpa: I don't know ... Is it safe? Seif: It's safe as long as you follow a few rules. Grandpa: Can you tell me what they are? Seif: I can, yes. First, always use a well-known website to buy or sell something. Here's a good one. OK, what do you want to sell? Grandpa: How about this table? Seif: Great. Can you give me your phone so I can take a photo of it? Thanks. OK, the next thing to remember is: always be honest. Make sure all the information you give about something you're selling is true. Grandpa: Well, this is a large table from the 1970s. It's in good condition. Seif: OK. Now, another very important rule is: don't share personal information, like your name, date of birth, address, or bank account details. Grandpa: Got it. What happens next? Seif: Someone will send you a message if they want to buy the table. Grandpa: And then will I meet the person to give it to them? Seif: It's better to send it to them.

Can you tell me what they are? Will I meet the person? We don't usually use can in 2 positive / negative replies. Typical replies are: Yes, of course. Sure, no problem. With ³ positive / negative replies, we usually give a reason, to be more polite: Sorry, I can't at the moment. I'm studying. No, sorry, I'm busy. I'll do it later. 5 Match the sentence halves to make requests. 1 Can you help 2 Will you open a the phone, please? b my coat?
