Mom:Oh Jacob, how about these sneakers?
Jacob:Mom? They’ve got Velcro.
Mom:Well, then how about these? What is this style called?
Salesgirl:They’re tennis shoes. They’re very popular with teens and young adults.
Jacob: Oooo, Mom, can I get these?
Mom:What are those?
Jacob:They’re Chuck Taylor’s! Everyone has them! Can I, please?
Mom:I don’t know. Would they go with your clothes? The backs are really high. and the way the tongue just sticks up. They’re almost like a boot. And the sole doesn’t look like it would have a very good grip.
Jacob: They’re only forty-five dollars! And they’ve got cool fluorescent orange shoelaces! Mom?
Mom:OK, try them on.
Salesgirl:What size are your feet?
Mom:He is a size nine.
Salesgirl:We’ll try a size forty-three on you first，and see how that fits.
