Kate: Hi John! Haven't seen you for ages! Where have you been?
John: Hello Kate! I've just come back from Belarus.
Kate: Really? How interesting! What did you do there?
John: I attended the International Youth Scientific Conference.
Kate: Did you? What was the theme of the conference?
John: We discussed environmental problems of the 21^st century. I've been doing research into plastic pollution for two years.
Kate: Have you? I didn't know you were into the environment. Did you see any places in Belarus?
John: Well, I spent just two days there, so I wasn't able to go sightseeing.
Kate: Weren't you? That's a pity.
John: Yeah, but I'm going to visit my new Belarusian friend in summer. He's got a farm not far from Minsk. Actually, he raises snails there.
Kate: He raises what?
John: Snails. His business brings him good money.
Kate: His business?
John: Yes, he supplies the capital's restaurants and hotels with snails.
Kate: Does he? He must be a millionaire!
John: Not really. But he's going to expand his business and use snails in cosmetics, pharmaceutics and other spheres.
Kate: Is he? Can I join you on your summer trip? I'm crazy about snails.
John: Sure! I think we'll have an unforgettable experience!
