Intro
Elevators are a great convenience. They can quickly take you from the bottom of a building to the top. A few stairs can be good, but most people would rather ride an elevator.
Some people could do without elevators, though. They feel awkward or claustrophobic when they’re stuck in a small space crowded with other people.
Learn what Lily and Jeff think about elevators in this English lesson.
