Why aren’t you wearing a jacket?M: I overslept this morning, so I ran out of the house without listening to the forecast.Text 3W: Have you had a busy day at the office?M: Yes, sorry I’m late. I didn’t get the bus because Peter offered me a lift. But the motorway was closed because of an accident. I’ll be even later tomorrow with the train strike.Text 4M: Look, Sandra. I got this really nice postcard from my aunt.W: Oh, what a pretty village and it’s right b y a river. Is it in the mountains?M: Yes. But you can’t see them in the picture.W: Perhaps they’re behind those tall trees.Text 5M: Excuse me. I’m looking for the bar, please.W: Yes, sir. It’s inside the restaurant next to the performance stage. Turn left out of the lift, and the bar is just there, on your right.Text 6M: Is this desk available? I need to find some work space.W: Let me think. That’s Terry’s spot but I think he’s working from home today.M: That’s where Terry sits? Then I can’t work t here. I just saw him in the parking lot.W: Oh, that’s right. Terry’s working from home on Monday and Wednesday this week —his schedule’s always changing and I can never keep track of it. But why don’t you try over where Gordon sits? There’s an extra desk over there.Text 7W: Peter, you’re learning to drive, aren’t you? Do you go to the AA Driving School?M: Actually it’s called the ABC Driving School.W: Is it expensive?M: I’ve had ten lessons already and each one is fourteen pounds.W: I see. And is t he teacher’s car new?M: Yes, and it’s not a big car so parking is easy.W: When are you going to take your driving test?M: I failed it last week.W: Did you hit something or …M: The traffic lights were red but I didn’t see them and I couldn’t brake in t ime.W: Never mind. You can take the test again. Tell me about your teacher. Is he friendly? M: He’s OK. He’s quite young and interesting to talk to, but my father will give me my next lessons. He’s cheaper.Text 8W: Chris, remember at 11:00 this morning you have to call your grandparents. And at 12:00, can you take Fiona to the swimming pool in my car? She’s meeting a friend there.M: OK. I wanted to watch some TV but it can wait.W: Can you get some stamps too? The post office closes at 1:00, but you’ll be there at 12:30 if you go straight from the pool.M: OK. Anything else?W: There are some library books to return, but I’ll do that on Monday. Can you wash the car? If you do that at the garage at 1:00, you’ll be back here at lunchtime.M: All right. So I’ll see you at 1:30 and we’ll eat then. At 2:00 there’s a football match —it’sa really important game. After that, can I use the car to visit some friends?W: Yes, OK.Text 9M: So how were your schooldays when you were a child, Joan?W: Well, from seven to twelve I went to a school in Belgium.M: In Belgium? How come?W: It was my father’s idea. One of his friends was sending his daughter, and my father wanted to impress his friend so he decided to send me, too.M: Just to impress a friend? It’s hard to believe. So what was it like?W: We had to get up early and go to church before class. And at mealtimes we just had to sit silently with our hands folded in our laps. And I wasn’t allowed to speak English at all. I had to learn French but nobody taught me. I just had to sit in the lessons and try to understand.M: It’s awful for a child of seven!W: And they were terribly strict about manners! I suppose that was one good thing. I had the most beautiful manners when I left.Text 10W: Hello, everyone. Welcome to Language International. Could you please turn to page five? Now, you see that lessons begin here every weekday at 9:00 a.m. The first class every Monday is grammar practice, followed by a visit to the language laboratory. After a break you have a double lesson of speaking skills. Tuesday morning begins with a reading skills lesson and after the break, vocabulary development. In the afternoon you’ll go to the library, where you can read, watch a video or practise grammar. On Wednesday morning you have listening skills, and then what we call current affairs. You’ll listen to the news on the radio and discuss what’s going on. After the break it’s another double lesson of speaking skills. Thursday morning begins wit h pronunciation, then a special “Life in Britain” class. After the break is grammar practice once again. Finally on Friday morning in the first lesson you will practise writing skills, followed by a lesson in the computer room. After the break is the weekly review period, where your teacher will help with any problems you may have. Oh, and don’t forget you can study on your own in the library every weekday from 3:30 to 6:00 p.m. as well, if you wish! Thank you.。
