Example 1. Comparing options

The first laptop is cheaper, but it has a smaller screen. The second one is more expensive, but it has a better battery. I think the second laptop is better value because I need it for work.

Example 2. In a shop

Customer: Can I pay by card?

Assistant: Of course. Would you like a receipt?

Customer: Yes, please. Also, can I return it if it does not fit?

Example 3. Banking support

Hello, I made a transfer yesterday, but the money has not arrived. Could you please check my account and tell me if there is a problem?

Review example. Comparing two options
