A: Welcome to our department store, sir.

B: Thank you. I'd like to have a look at some Chinese silk and satin.

A: Oh, please come here. You see, there are so many colors for you choice.

B: They are very pretty.

A: So they are. How about this? It's velvety and the color is brilliant.

B: Is the color fast?

A: Yes. And it is washable. But you can only wash it in lukewarm water. Don't rub. Just use soapy water and rinse well.

B: What's the width?

A: It's two feet and four inches wide.

B: I want to make a Chinese fashion coat. How many feet should I buy?
