They got home about tea-time and my grandfather was looking very upset."My watch," he said, "it's gone. Someone must have stolen it while we were feeding the pigeons."live with my parents. My home is near the hotel, so I walk to work every day.There is some sugar, there is some coffee and there is a lot of tea, but there is not much jam.

Last week our reporter, Tom Parker, went to see Sally in her Californian home.Tom: Is it true that you don't swim at all now?Sally: I'm afraid so. I'm too old.Tom: But you are only twenty!Sally: That's too old for a swimmer. If I swam in an international competition now, I wouldn't win. So I'd rather not swim at all.Tom: But don't you enjoy swimming?Sally: I used to, when I was small. But if you enter for big competitions you have to work very hard. I used to get up at 6 am to go to the pool. I had to train before school, after school and at weekends. I swam thirty-five miles every week!Tom: But you were famous at fifteen. And look at all those cups.Sally: Would you like to polish them? It's true that I have some wonderful memories. I enjoyed visiting other countries, and the Olympics were very exciting. But I missed more important things. While other girls were growing up, I was swimming. What can I do now?There is a small shop at the end of our road. I buy my newspaper there every Sunday. This is the only shop that is open on a Sunday, so it is always very busy. They sell milk, eggs, biscuits, tea and coffee. You can get aspirins, toothpaste or a writing pad there.

He is seventy years old and I like talking to him. Every day I go for a walk with him in the park. My grandfather has a dog. The dog's name is Nelson. Nelson is old and he has very short legs and bad eyes. But my grandfather likes him very much.I have a small black and white television and I can get a good picture. But my brother has got a color television. It is bigger, heavier and more complicated than mine. My brother gets a better picture on his television than I do on mine. So when there is something very good on TV, I usually go and see my brother.lession5Instructor: Listen to these people. They are all taking things to be repaired. Of course, they want to know how much it will cost and how long it will take. Listen to their questions and write the answers you hear.

But how long will it take?Male Assistant: Only about a week.Instructor: Look at the answers the assistant gives his customer. The first answer is 'about a pound.' The second answer is 'about a week.'

Dialogue A:Man: Can you give me an estimate to repair this bicycle?Female Assistant: I think it'll cost about twelve or thirteen pounds.Man: And how long will it take?Female Assistant: A fortnight, more or less.Dialogue B:Woman: Would you have a look at this television set, please?Female Assistant: Yes, of course. Hmmm. How long have you had it?Woman: About eight years. Can you tell me how much it'll cost to repair it?Female Assistant: Well, the set's very old. It'll cost about fifty pounds. It's cheaper to buy a new one.Dialogue C:Man: How much do you think it'll cost to repair this typewriter?Female Assistant: Let me see. It's a 1960 model. About twenty pounds, I'm afraid.Man: That's rather a lot. And how long will it take?Female Assistant: About a month.Man: Thank you. I'd like to think about it.but he needs a typewriter... Then he remembers his friend, Tony. Tony has several typewriters. Bob, the customer, has an idea. He meets his friends, Tony. Listen to their conversation.Dialogue D:Tony: Hello, Bob. What's that heavy parcel you're carrying?Bob: It's my old typewriter. I've just been to the shop. The assistant says it'll cost about twenty pounds to repair.Tony: That's rather a lot. What are you going to do?Bob: Well, you've got several typewriters. Could you lend me one?Tony: I'll have to think about it.Instructor: Frank and Peter want new bicycles. Petrol is very expensive so they both want to cycle to work. They are looking at advertisements.Frank: What about this Curzon bike. It's very cheap. Only eighty pounds.Peter: Yes, but the Anderson bike is even cheaper. It's sixty-five pounds.Frank: Hmmm. How old is the Anderson one?Peter: It's a 1977 model.Frankie: The Curzon is a 1979 model. It's newer.Instructor: Frank and Peter are still looking at advertisements. They can't decide which bike to buy. Peter: The Anderson bike looks very comfortable.Frank: Yes, but the Curzon looks bigger.Pedro: I don't want a big bike. I want a comfortable one.Frank: All right. The Anderson bike is good. But the Curzon is Better.Instructor: Do you remember Regine? Where does she come from? Is she married? Where does she work? Listen to Regine speaking.Regine: My name is Regine. I'm Gemp3an. I live in a small town. I'm not married. I live at home with my mother and father, my sister Heidi and my brother Rolf. I work in a department store. I sell writing paper, envelopes, ball pens, pencils and colored postcards. I walk to work every morning.

Five years to success. Can you tell us? The secret of your success?Regine: The 'secret', as you call it, is work. When I was seventeen, I lived at home. I walked to the shop every morning. I saved my money and I went to evening classes. I worked in a good department and I sold so much that I got a good commission. I really wanted to be a success. Now I'm the manager. Interviewer: Congratulations, Regine. But please tell us ... do you like your job? Are you happier? Regine: You are asking me two questions. The first answer is 'yes' and the second answer is definitely 'no'.Good afternoon, my name is Schwartz. That is S-C-H-W-A-R-T-Z and I come from New York.

Do you know where I can get two tickets for the perfomp3ance at the theatre tonight?On my first day in London I felt hungry, so I went into a restaurant and sat down at a table. I waited for ten minutes, but nobody came to serve me. Then I saw that there were no waiters. The customers stood in a queue and got their food themselves.

Last week he invited me to go to a football match. I do not like football, so it was silly of me to say yes. We did not have seats, so we had to stand for two hours in the rain. I was cold and wet and I could not see a thing. So I asked George to take me home. He got very angry and said some very unpleasant things.Last week the sun shone and it got quite hot. I decided to put on my light grey summer trousers. But I got a shock. I could not put them on. They were too small. It is possible that they got smaller during the winter, but I do not think so. I am afraid I got bigger. So I am going to eat less and I am going to take more exercise. I am definitely going to lose some weight.lession7—Is that Mrs. Brown?—No, it isn't.

Do you know anything about cars? My car is using too much petrol.John Haslam is talking about his garden.You know, I don't really like the country. It's too quiet. There's not enough movement, not enough action, not enough to do. But I'm like most other people: I need some peace and quiet sometimes, and this little garden is my peace and quiet. It's big enough for me. During the summer I may spend three or four hours out here. But even in the winter I may come out here for an hour or two at the weekends, if the weather's good. It's a good place to sit with my typewriter. And it's a good place to sit with a book and a drink. And do you know something? I spend as much time out of the house now as I did when I lived in the country. Funny, isn't it?(Sound of radio playing. Telephone rings.)Betty: Listen, Mum. The phone's ringing. Can I answer it?Julie: Yes, of course. But please answer correctly.(Receiver being picked up.)Betty: (excited) Hello. This is Betty.Male V oice; (confused pause) Uh ... good evening. Is that 789-6 double 4 3?Betty: Yes, it is. Would you like to talk to my mother?Male V oice: Well ... I'd like to talk to Mrs. Henderson ...Betty: Just a moment. I'll tell her.Julie: Mrs. Henderson speaking. Who's calling please?Male V oice: This is Brian Murphy, Mrs. Henderson. I'm your new neighbor. I moved in yesterday. Julie: Oh, good evening, Mr. Murphy. Welcome to Oak Lane. Can we give you any help?Male V oice: Sorry to bother you, Mrs. Henderson, but I'd like to ask you some questions.Julie: I'm never too busy to help a neighbor, Mr. Murphy. What would you like to know?Male V oice: Well, first, could you tell me what time the milkman calls? And which day do the dustmen come? Who's the most dependable newsagent? (pause) Oh, yes ... where is the nearest police station? Julie: My goodness, Mr. Murphy. You have got a lot of questions. Look, I have an idea. Why don't you come to tea tomorrow afternoon? Then we can meet you and answer all your questions.Male V oice: That's very kind of you, Mrs. Henderson. What time shall I come?Julie: Any time after 3 o'clock. We look forward to meeting you. Goodbye.Male V oice: Goodbye, Mrs. Henderson.(Receiver being replaced.)Everything changes. Once a lot of people went to the cinema to see silent films. Then when talking pictures started nobody wanted to see silent films any more. But people still went to the cinema and everybody knew the names of all the great film stars. Now we have television. People sit at home night after night watching their favorite programs. But what is going to happen to the cinema?Dear Mr. Scott,Thank you for your letter of 15th January. You say that you telephoned our office five times in two days and did not receive a reply.I am sorry about this, but we have had problems with our telephone.Yours sincerely,D. Rentonlession9—I'm going to clean the blackboard.—But you can't do that.—Why can't I?—We haven't got a duster.—Did you walk to the match?—No. I went by car.—Did John go by car, too?—No. He cycled.—Hello, and how did you spend the holiday?—I played tennis till lunch time.—What did you do after lunch?—I went for a swim with John.—Hello, why aren't you playing tennis?—I haven't brought my racket.—You can borrow mine, if you like.—Oh, thank you.

It’s been a very busy year.5.3 Negotiating a bank loanBM O K,well, I’ve got all the paperwork here for your loan application .Everything seems to be in order.Let’s just have a look at your business plan.Perhaps you could tell me about your ideas?JH Yes,of course.We plan to make fruit drinks,from 100 per cent fruit-no extrasugar,or additives or ‘E’ numbers.At the moment,we’ve only got a couple of flavours,strawberry and pear,but we want to expand our range to include more flavours.BM Y ou say that you’ve got some f lavours.Have you already started making and selling your drinks?JH Only on a small scale,but they’re selling really well and we can’t keep up with demand.BM Right,so why exactly do you want a loan?Are you going to expand your range orincrease you production?JH Well,both,we hope.BM And how do you plan to sell the drinks?Direct to the public?JH No,we’re going to sell through other companies.You know,in cafés,snack bars,at outlets in airports and railway stations.We’ve already had talks with the catering company that runs the ‘Travel Snack’chain.They’re going to stock our drinks intheir main outlets/BM And are you going to be able to expand quickly?JH I think so,because we’re going to keep everything simple.We plan to use the same basic plastic bottles that we’ve used until now,and we’re going to use the fruitthat is easily available locally.Our production process is very simple too.BM OK,what about your market?Who do you think is going to be your main market?JH So far most of our customers have been young people-you know,students,teenagers,people who are interested in drinking something healthy and natural .So we’re going to try to consolidate that market. I don’t think it’s a good idea to change our strategy at the moment.BM What kind of marketing have you done?JH A friend of ours has designed a great website for us,and I think we’re going to focus on the Internet for the moment.BM OK,so let’s look at these figures in more detail…Module 66.1 Flight problems1We got to the airport 30 minutes before the plane was due to take off,and we wentstraight to the check-in desk.First,the man at the desk said that the plane wasalready full because the flight was overbooked ,so we couldn’t get on.But then he changed his story.He said there were empty seats on the plane,but wewere late and the check-in desk was closed.So we missed our plane and we had to buy two tickets for another flight.You see,if the flight is overbooked,they give youa seat on a later one-but if you arrive late,you lose your money. I bet the man atthe desk was lying.2I called the airline to ask if my flight was on time ,and the man said that theremight be a delay because of the snow,But when I arrived at the airport ,there wereno flights.The woman at the information desk told me to go back to my hotel andwait.She said they were going to close the airport,and she didn’t know for how long.3I couldn’t complain about anything.The airline sent a taxi to collect me from myhotel.At the airport,they took me s traight to the desk to check my c ase in. I didn’t have to wait.Then they let me sit in the First Class Lounge,even though I didn’thave a first class ticket.The woman i n the lounge said she would bring me some food from the buffet if I was hungry .Then ,when it was time to go ,they pushed mywheelchair all the way to my seat on the plane ,And during the flight,they couldn’t do enough for me.4There’s one every week.If it’s not the baggage handlers,it’s the flight attendants,or even the pilots .The last time I travelled,it was the air trafficcontrollers.Oh ,but they weren’t stopping for the whole day,just for four hours,just long enough to cause absolute chaos .The announcement said there wouldbe no cancellations that day ,only delays.But that meant that I missed my connecting flight in Frankfurt and had to fly out to Chile the following day.6.2 At the hotel1R Good afternoon.Carlton Hotel.How may I help you?G Yes,hello. I’m phoning to check if my online booking went through . I haven’t received any confirmation.R When did you make your booking?G Last Tuesday,the 14th.R Could I have your name,please?G Yes,it’s Johanson.。
