CELPIP Listening Part 2 Practice Test: Home Repairs

Neighbor 1: Morning, Lisa! I noticed our shared fence got damaged in the windstorm. Shall we fix it?

Neighbor 2: Hey, Dan, yeah, I saw that gap yesterday. It’s letting my dog sneak out.

Neighbor 1: Same with my cat! I’ve got some wood planks in my shed. Do you have tools?

Neighbor 2: I’ve got a hammer and nails, but we might need a saw to cut the planks.

Neighbor 1: I can borrow one from a friend. Can we tackle this tomorrow morning?

Neighbor 2: Tomorrow at 9 a.m. works. Should we split the paint cost to spruce it up afterward?

Neighbor 1: Good call. I’d say white matches the rest. A gallon should be about $30.

Neighbor 2: I’ll chip in $15. Do we need help hauling the planks?

Neighbor 1: Nah, they’re light. Just bring the nails and your energy.

Neighbor 2: Deal. Should we check the rest of the fence for weak spots?

Neighbor 1: Smart. Let’s inspect it while we’re at it to avoid future fixes.

Neighbor 2: Perfect. I’ll bring coffee to keep us going. Anything else?

Neighbor 1: Nope, that covers it. Thanks for teaming up, Lisa!

Neighbor 2: Happy to pitch in, Dan. Let’s get that fence sorted!
