A: Good morning. I’m from the Citizen’s Census Committee and I wonder if you’d mind answering a few questions. It won’t take long. I promise.
B: What kind of questions?
A: Oh, just a few questions about your family—family size, husband’s occupation, that sort of thing.
B: Well, all right, as long as it doesn’t take too long.
A: This will only take a few minutes.
B: OK. Why don’t we sit down over here?
A: Thank you. OK. First of all then, are you married?
B: Yes, I am.
A: Would you mind telling me what your husband does?
B: He works in a factory.
A: I see. Factory worker. And could I ask you how much he earns?
B: His salary? Do you have to know that?
A: Well, it would be helpful. Just a general amount.
B: About $13,500.
A: And you’re a housewife? No income?
B: Mmmm.
A: And may I ask how many children you have?
B: Four.
A: Boys? Girls?

A: And your daughter? How old is she?
B: She’s the youngest: four and a half.

A: And how many rooms does it have?
B: All together? Six, I think, yeah, six not counting the bathroom.
A: Well, that’s that then. Thank you very much for your time.
B: You’re welcome,
