Hoa: Could you tell me what school was like in the past?
Grandfather: We shared books, but we helped each other.

A useful exchange has a clear purpose: ask, respond, check and close. Use a polite question rather than an order when you need help. If you are unsure, ask “Could you explain that?” instead of pretending to understand.
Role A needs information about remembering the past. Role B gives one answer and checks whether it is clear. Swap roles, add a follow-up question and explain one reason for your choice.
Useful responses: “Certainly.” “Let me check.” “Do you mean ...?” “Thanks for explaining.”
