Dialogue:

TEACHER: So, Amanda, is school in Japan very different from school in England?

AMANDA: Oh yes. One big difference is that in England the students move between the classrooms, not the teachers.

TEACHER: Oh. That’s interesting. So who cleans the classrooms?

AMANDA: Well, we have people who get paid just to keep the school clean.

TEACHER: Really? That’s good for the students.

AMANDA: Yes, but it means they don’t care about throwing litter on the floor.
