Part 2

Oliver Are you doing anything this evening?

Holly No, nothing special.

Oliver Well, we’re going to that new Chinese restaurant near the station. Would you like to come?

Holly Yes, that would be nice. What time are you going?

Oliver About 8.00. Shall we come and pick you up?

Holly Yes, great.

Oliver OK, I’ll call for you at 7.30.

1 A What shall we do this weekend?

B How about going to London on Saturday? There’s a good exhibition on at the Royal Academy.

A OK, that’s a good idea. Shall we get the coach or the train?

B Let’s get the coach – it’s cheaper.

A Fine. What time?

B Not too early. About 1.00 ish?

A Yes, that would be great.

2 A Hello?

B Hi, it’s Charlie here.

A Oh hi, Charlie, how’s it going?

B Oh, not bad. Look, do you fancy seeing a film this evening?

A Good idea – I’d love to.

B OK. Well, why don’t we meet in the White Horse at 7.00, and then we can decide what we want to see?

A OK, see you there. 7.00.

B Right, bye.

A Bye.

1 A How about going to the theatre tonight?

B I’m afraid I can’t – I’m going out for dinner.

2 A Let’s go for a long walk this afternoon!

B I’d love to, but I have to study for my exams.

3 A Why don’t we go to the pub this evening?

B I’m afraid I’m a bit busy – I’m staying at work till 10.00.

4 A Do you fancy going to a concert of Irish music?

B I don’t really like folk. How about the cinema instead?

Part 4

Let me see … I share my office with Jack and Phil and … oh, and Colin Sanders works in the office next door.

Norman and Maureen – I haven’t known them long. They moved in next door three months ago, but Mrs Anderson, bless her, has been at number 21 for years and years.

Now, well, John and I have been married for twelve years – hard to believe! Louise is nearly eleven now, our Sam’s eight, and so is Muffin, our Siamese cat.

Stella … she’s my oldest friend. We went to school together. Mark and Julia are John’s best friends, we see them most weekends, I suppose.

1 She’s my best friend. She comes into my bedroom every morning and jumps onto my bed. She’s always happy to see me, which is nice. She loves hiding under a newspaper and rushing in and out, round and round. She’s done that since she was a kitten. And if I’m upset, and I go to my room, she follows me. I tell her all my problems and she listens, you know.

2 They’re a nice couple. We’re at 18 and they’re at 20, next door. They keep themselves to themselves – sometimes I meet them when I’m going out to work in the morning, and we say hello, but otherwise I don’t see much of them. They keep their house and garden really neat and tidy. We get on fine.

3 We sometimes argue, because we share an office, and I think if you share an office you get on each other’s nerves a bit. You know, stupid things, like should the window be open or closed, should the heating be on or off, whose turn it is to wash the cups, that sort of thing … Most of the time we get on OK.

4 I want him to be tall, dark, and handsome! He has to be young-ish, in his 20s, with big brown eyes. He has to dress well – you know, nice clothes, not necessarily expensive. And he should be kind and considerate, and listen to what I have to say, and respect my opinions.

5 We knew each other for years before we started going out together. It wasn’t exactly love at first sight! But we get on really well, we never argue, our friends can’t believe it! I was a bit worried when we decided to get married last year – I thought it would change things, but it’s been fine.
