Let's complete this dialogue exercise step by step! 🎯

1) Looking at the context, here are the logical answers for each gap:

Gap 1: "like" (already filled)
Gap 2: "beach" (logical location alternative to park)
Gap 3: "I'd" (common contraction for "I would")
Gap 4: "park" (choosing one of the options)
Gap 5: "would" (making a question about preference)
Gap 6: "prefer" (asking about food preference)
Gap 7: "sandwiches" (choosing one of the food options)
Gap 8: "know" (completing "I don't know")
Gap 9: "choose" (or "decide")
Gap 10: "football" (selecting one of the sports options)

The completed dialogue would read:

John: Would you like to have a picnic at the park or on the beach?
Beth: I'd like to have a picnic at the park.
John: OK. Would you prefer sandwiches or pizza at the picnic?
Beth: I'd prefer sandwiches.
John: Cool. What about drinks? Would you like cola or water?
Beth: I don't know. You choose.
Would you like to play football or volleyball at the picnic?
John: I'd like to play football.
Beth: Me too.

This exercise helps practice:
- Making and responding to suggestions
- Expressing preferences
- Using polite question forms
- Making choices between options

Remember to use appropriate intonation when practicing the dialogue! 📢
