May and Anna are roommates.  May is looking in the refrigerator and pantry in their apartment.  There are few things left in the fridge and pantry.  So, they decide to go grocery shopping at the farmer’s market.
May:  What do you think we
          should buy?
Anna: We are out of vegetables and
          fruit. We only have short
          ribs left.
May:  Do you think we need to buy
          noodles?
Anna: Yeah, I think we have some but not enough for both of us.
May:  Then let’s go to the produce section first and get some
          vegetables and fruit.
Anna: Let’s get a bag of onions, a bag of potatoes, one pound of
          carrots, 1/3 of peas, a bag of Shanghai Bok Choy, and some
          ginger and garlic.  With these vegetables, we can make curry
          for our meal next week.
May:  I would like to get some fruit too.  I want to buy cantaloupe, 
          a box of strawberries, a grapefruit, bananas, and 2 pounds of 
          cherries.  So we can make some fruit salad.
Anna: Let’s go to the meat and poultry sections and get chicken
          drumsticks and pork chops.
May:  Let’s get a carton of eggs.  What should we get for breakfast?
Anna: How about a box of cereal, a gallon of whole milk, a loaf of
          bread and a jar of peanut butter?
May:  That sounds good.  Can we get some ice cream too?
Anna: Sure. Do we need anything else, like soda or snacks?
May:  I think we have plenty at home.  We are fine with them.
Anna: That's everything. Let's go to the checkout.
May:  Oops! I only have five dollars. Did you bring your credit card
          or debit card?  I will pay you back later when we are home.
Anna: Yes, I have my debit card with me.  I can check out first and
          that is not a problem.
