Asking for and Stating Intention and Purpose to Do an Activity
Kinar : Randy, I saw several old
tires in front of your house. What are you going to do with them?
Randy : My neighbors and I are going
to place them along the ditch sides.
Kinar : What do you place the tires
there for?
Randy : To grow vegetables.
Kinar : That’s a great idea! I think
you can also use oil packs or mineral bottles to grow vegetables.
Randy : I don’t think so. We prefer
making them into handicrafts.
Kinar : I see. People in your
neighborhood are creative to utilize old items to become useful ones. Anyway, will you paint the tires?

beautiful.

Ah, that will be nice. I will help you paint them.
