► Listen to the dialogue

• HUSBAND - What happened to you? Why do you have a bandaid on your finger?
• WIFE - I hurt myself in the kitchen.
• HUSBAND - What happened?
• WIFE - I cut myself when I was slicing vegetables.
• HUSBAND - Really?
• WIFE - Yeah. I was cutting up vegetables to put in the salad for dinner while Timmy was playing with a toy on the kitchen floor. Suddenly Timmy started crying. I looked up quickly and noticed that he burned himself on the stove. The noise distracted me and I accidentally cut myself.
• HUSBAND - That's too bad. Is Timmy Ok?
• WIFE - Yeah. He's fine now. What happened to your foot? Why are you limping?
• HUSBAND - I hurt myself today too. I tripped at work and fell down. I hurt my leg.
• WIFE - We need to be more careful. We're a clumsy family.
