📖 Read the dialogue and answer the questions. Ines, njezina obitelj i James ručaju i razgovaraju.

Dijalog – čitanje
| James: | Ti ideš u osnovnu školu? U kojem si ti razredu? |
|---|---|
| Nina: | Da, ja idem u šesti razred. |
| James: | Oh, ti si još malena. |
| Jelena: | James, ti izvrsno govoriš hrvatski. |
| James | Hvala! Trudim se. Puno učim, čitam i slušam glazbu. |
| Nina: | A odakle si ti? Gdje žive tvoji roditelji? |
| James: | Ja sam iz Teksasa, ali moji roditelji žive u Coloradu. |
| Nina: | Ti si kauboj!!! |
| James: | Haha, a zašto ti misliš da sam ja kauboj? |
| Nina: | Po vašim kaubojskim filmovima. Kauboji žive u Teksasu. Tamo je uvijek vruće. |
| James: | Da, u Texasu je ljeti jako vruće. |
| Nina: | A zašto ti slaviš Novu godinu u Hrvatskoj? Zašto ne slaviš Novu godinu u Americi, u Teksasu? |
| James: | Zato što ja želim znati više o hrvatskoj kulturi. Želim znati više o običajima u Hrvatskoj. |
