VI. Role-play the conversation

Conversation

Susan: Guess what? They’re showing “China Seas” with Clark Gable on TV tonight.

Lucy: Are they really? Oh, I must watch that. If there’s one actor. I love watching, it’s Clark Gable.

Susan: Yes, so do I, especially when he’s playing opposite Jean Harlow.

Lucy: Jean Harlow? Oh, I can’t stand her!

Susan: Can’t you? But why not?

Lucy: I don’t know. I just don’t like the ay the acts, that’s all.

Susan: But she was a very good actress!

Lucy: You must be joking!

Susan: No, I’m not. I really like the way she acts. Anyway, I’d much rather watch “China Seas” than the opera on B.B.C. 2 “ La Traviata”.

Lucy: You are not serious, are you? You really mean to say that you’d prefer to watch “China Seas”?

Susan: Yes, any day.

Lucy: Well… if that’s the sort of film you enjoy watching, then all I can say is that I don’t think very much of your taste! I shall watch the opera!

I. Listen to the conversation and answer the questions:

What are they showing on TV tonight? What do the girls think of Clark Gable?

Do they both think much of Jean Harlow’s acting? What programmes are the girls going to watch tonight?

II. Listen to the conversation again. Imitate the phrases expressing likes, dislikes and preferences.

III. Find in the text appropriate English phrases for the following:

Мне действительно нравится, как она играет. Я невысокого мнения о твоем вкусе. Ты наверное шутишь. Я немогу ее терпеть. Если такого рода фильм тебе нравиться... Мне просто не нравится, как она играет. Я бы предпочла посмотреть фильм.
