W: Oh, perfect. It's one of the most interesting places I've ever seen. M: Where did you go? W: Well, we spent most of the time in Cairo and Luxor. M: What's there to see in Cairo? W: Well, not all that much, in fact, but there is the museum and the pyramids, and that's really something. M: What's the city like? W: It's very large, and the streets are always noisy and dirty. M: I thought you liked it. W: Well, I did in a way. It's very different, but I liked Luxor better. Luxor's a little town fight on the banks of the Nile. It's very quiet and peaceful and much cleaner than Cairo. And actually I did more sightseeing there. M: Did you buy anything? W: Oh, sure. There are some excellent shops in Luxor with all sorts of interesting things. A lot better than Cairo, in fact, I bought a gold necklace. Want to see it? M: Sure.

M: I think it's important. I can give you my insurance agent's card if you want. W: But I'm not sure what kind I need. In Germany, we have a national insurance program. But here you have nothing. M: Yes, I know. Many countries have national health insurance. America doesn't. W: Why is that? M: Well, it's because of the American culture. Americans think private companies can do things better than the government. So we depend on private companies for insurance. W: But isn't that expensive? M: You're right. It is expensive. And many people criticize it. They say it is not fair to poor people. They say the health systems are better in other countries, especially in Europe. W: But what do you think? M: I have no idea. I just do my best to have good insurance. It's important. What was said before this conversation?
Ans: W: My colleagues at work say I should get a health insurance. What do you think?
