Track3
42. Well, here we are, back in Bighton, standing in front of our hotel.
43. Today, we’re visiting new English friends of mine, who live here in Brighton.
44. What?Today?
45. Yes, today, honey, so – where was I? Right, they’re friends of mine.
46. Their names are Peter and Rosie. Now, Peter’s a salesman.
47. He works for a full company.
7. And Rosie works at the American Embassy in London.
8. …
9. So they are very busy people, and it’s real sweet of them to make time to see us.
10. We are very lucky.
11. Can I say something?
12. ….
13. 13.I want to go play golf today, Deborah.
14. You know what the weather is like in England. Today it’s sunny, there is no rain.
15. Ok, it’s damn cold, but still, it’s a great day for golf. So that’s what I want to do today.
16. Sure honey, but we’re seeing Peter and Rosie today. You can play golf tomorrow.
17. I can’t play golf tomorrow. The weather won’t be like this tomorrow. It would probably rain.
18. Well, it is winter. Honey. Even in the States it rains a lot in the winter.
19. Yeah, well, in England it rains a lot in the spring, the summer, the fall and the winter.
20. But it’s not raining today, so let’s go play golf, ok? Hey, I’ll tell you what.
21. We can go play golf this afternoon, and we can still go see your friends in the evening.
22. No, that won’t work, I’m afraid.
23. Why the hell not.
24. Because I’m cooking dinner for us all.
25. They’re inviting us to dinner and you’re cooking it? It’s crazy.
26. We’re cooking it, honey, just because I’m a woman.
27. That doesn’t mean I must do all the cooking, now does it? Hey, will you look at us?
28. Here we are, just standing in front of the hotel, talking.
29. Let’s get going: we have a lot of shopping to do!
30. There’s a really good supermarket down this road, we can get everything we need there.
31. …
32. …
33. Well, my idea is to do something really typically American.
34. So I think I’ll make some Jambalaya.
35. Jambalaya? But that’s southern food. It’s from Pittsburgh, not New Orleans!
36. So what’s typical Pittsburgh food, then? Burger and fries?
37. No, Alan, Peter and Rosie are sophisticated people, they travel all around.
38. I want to cook them something real special. Ah, here we are, “Waithose”
39. I can’t see any shopping carts.
40. Over there. Honey, where it says “trolleys”
41. “Trolleys”? is that what they call shopping carts here? I’ll go and get one.
42. Geez, this shopping cart is so small! What with this country.
43. It’ll be big enough for it, Alan. We are only cooking one dinner.
44. Here we are.
45. What we need?
46. First of all, rice
47. Hey, look.
48. One pound. Is that enough?
49. Honey, I can see you are not a great expert on food.
50. What do you mean?
51. Well, first of all, easy cook rice is yukky, and second of all, you don’t want to use American rice anyway.
52. Why the hell not, why you’re cooking an American dinner?
53. Honey, we’re in Europe now. try to be a bit sophisticated, ok?
54. We’ll go for the Italian rice.
55. We need tomatoes, or “tomatoes” or they say here.
56. And peppers – red peppers, and prawn.
57. And bacon. And lots of all, we need sausages. Great, that’s it. Let’s go and pay.
58. Where’s the check-out? Or do they call it, like, I don’t know.
59. This country.
60. They call it here just like we do.
61. Here it is.
62. Good. Do we have enough cash for all this staff?
63. Of course we do, honey. Anyway, this, this is, like, the third world.
64. …
65. …
66. So, let’s pay, and then we can go to Peter and Rosie’s.
67. And start cooking delicious Jambalaya.
68. Let’s go for it.

Unit 13 Lesson 3  Section A

1 Oh, no!
2 Hello, Heidi--- are you OK? Hey, it’s really good, this Swiss beer. Would you like some?
3 Look at this apartment! It’s so untidy!
4 Oh yeah, I must tidy it. What would I do with this ashtray?
5 Oh, give it to me, David. I’ll tidy the apartment.
6 Ok, if you like.
7 Hey, er… can I turn the TV on again? I’d like to watch “Deborah and Alan”.
8 Will you turn that damn TV off! How can you just sit there when I’m doing all the work?
9 I have a job, I work all day and when I come home I must do all the housework too!
10 You just sit there, and smoke cigarettes and drink beer, and you don’t do anything! What’s the matter with you, David? Why don’t you do something?
11 You know, I’m looking for a job, Heidi, but it’s kind of difficult in Switzerland.
12 It isn’t difficult if you try. What are you doing exactly, anyway?
13 Well, I’m looking in the newspapers, for example.
14 This newspaper is from last month!
15 Oh, David! What’s happening to us? Why are you like this? Why aren’t things like before; like in Washdon?
16 Yes, I was happy in Washdon and you were different, too.
17 What do you mean: I was different?
18 Oh, I mean, like, no you were the same, of course, but you were so sweet and gentle.
19 So you don’t think I’m sweet and gentle now?
20 Gee, yes, Heidi, of course you are! Of course! I mean, maybe it’s me, maybe I was different in Washdon.
21 No, I don’t think so, David. You’re just as same now as you were then.
22 It’s no good, David. We’ll never be happy together. Why don’t you go back to Washdon?
23 Go back to Washdon? But.. what will you do?
24 I’ll stay here, of course. I can live without you, David.
25 Oh, I see. You mean we’re finished?
26 That’s right, David. You understand English very well, don’t you?
27 Hey! Wow!
28 Well, don’t you have anything to say?
29 Well, I’m afraid there is, like a small problem. You see. I don’t have much money, and I need a lot—about $500 to get a ticket back to Washdon.
30 It that all? You just want some money?
31 Take the money and go! Get out of my apartment! You’re a monster!
32 Excuse me; is there a flight to Washdon soon?
33 Yes, there is one in an hour. Do you have a ticket?
34 No, I don’t. I’d like to buy one, please.
35 Club or tourist?
36 Tourist, please.
37 One-way or reture?
38 One-way, please. I don’t need a return ticket; I don’t think I’ll come back here.
39 So David’s coming back today!
40 And we’ll have a good teacher again. But where’s Heidi? I can’t see her here.
41 Perhaps she’s late.
42 Tell me what’s David like?
43 Oh, he’s very nice! You’ll like him, Juanita. He’s very sweet. He’s a complete gentleman.
44 Great.
45 Here he comes!
46 Welcome back, David!
47 Hello David, nice to see you again!
48 Good morning, my teacher.
49 Good morning, David. How’s your wife?
50 Sorry?
51 I mean, how’s Heidi? Isn’t she coming back to the class?
52 Perhaps she speaks English really well now. she has very good teacher!
53 No, er… in fact. Heidi’s still in Switzerland.
54 When’s she coming to Washdon? Or will you go back to Switzerland?
55 Well, no, er.. we’re not together any more. It’s over.
56 Oh, poor David! Are you very sad? Is your heart break…. Break…?
57 Broken, my heart is broken, yeah, it’s a real shame.
58 It’s so sad when one person is still in love, and the other person isn’t.
59 Yes, it’s very sad!
60 I know; why don’t we have a party? I’ll invite you all to my house. We can have a Japanese dinner, what do you think?
61 Yes, please! Great idea!
62 Will you come too, Juanita?
63 Yes, I think so. Thank you, Aiko.
64 How about you, Fritz?
65 Yes, thank you. But why must we eat Japanese food? Why don’t we eat German food?
66 German food is terrible! Horrible!
67 Alright, alright. I’m sorry. I won’t speak again.
68 I’m sure you will.

14. 1
1. Ok, Carter, tell me everything you know about these people.
2. Well, sir, this one’s name is Hugo Peters. He says he’s a businessman.
3. This man’s name is Peter Moran; I don’t know what he does exactly.
4. Wait a moment, Carter.
5. Now, who was at the airport: Peter or Moran?
6. Only Peters was there.
7. Did you stop him?
8. Of course I stopped him, and I looked in his suitcase.
9. What was in it?
10. Nothing.
11. Nothing was in it? So did you look anywhere else?
12. No, I didn’t actually. Sorry, excuse me, sir. But who’s that other man.
13. He is the boss, Carter.
14. So he was the man on the phone, talking to Hugo Peters! Now I understand.
15. Ah, you understand now! That’s good.
16. Listen, Carter, you’re going to Trinidad. You must find “ the boss”. And rest all of these.
17. Here’s your passport, and here’s your gun!
18. Thank you, sir. Goodbye. Look out, boss, I’m coming to get you.
19. Good afternoon, sir, and welcome to the Universe Hotel, Trinidad, do you have a reservation?
20. Er, yes, my name’s Harry Carter.
21. Ah, yes, you’re welcome, Mr. Carter.
22. Thank you.
23. How long are you staying with us, Mr. Carter? Or perhaps you don’t know yet?
24. Er, two or three days. I think.
25. Can I have your passport, please?
26. Oh yes, certainly. Here you are.
27. Aren’t you hot, Mr. Carter? You’re in the Caribbean now, not in Washdon. You don’t need all those clothes here.
28. Oh, er…, no, I see.
29. Here’s your passport, Mr. Carter. Your room number is 2924.
30. George, will you take Mr. Carter’s luggage to his room?
31. Alright, come with me, sir.
32. Er… can I have the key, please?
33. It’s in the door of your room, have a very pleasant stay in Finidad,
34. Yes, thank you.
35. Come in.
36. Hi, there, man! Welcome to Trinnidad! I’m detective Clycle Williams.
37. What can I do for you, Mr. Carter? Do you like Caribbean food? Do you like surfing? Or do you like girls? I know a little place where…
38. I’m not here on vacation, Mr. Williams. I have a very important job to do.
39. Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t know. What’s it all about then? I’m listening.
40. Somewhere in Trinidad, Mr. Williams, there’s a man who—
41. Yes?
42. Wait a moment! Did you hear that?
43. What?
44. I thought so! Look, that’s Hugo Peters! Listen Mr. Williams, do you have a car?
45. Yes, it’s outside the hotel! Why? Who’s Hugo Peters? What’s going on?
46. I’ll tell you later. Come on! There’s no time! Let's go!
47. Look, what’s happening? Where are we going? Will you please help me?
48. In a moment, Mr. Williams. But why are we going so slowly?
49. Take it ease, man! I’m driving, OK, I know this road, and you can’t drive quickly here. But what are you looking for?
50. That’s what I’m looking for! That big car up there!
51. So a policeman stopped you at the airport, Peters.
52. Yes, sir, but he didn’t find anything!
53. And a policeman listened to your telephone.
54. Yes, I think so.
55. And what did you do, Peters?
56. Well, sir.. er… I didn’t do anything, actually.
57. You’re an idiot, Peters. What shall we do with Peters. Busil?
58. Let’s give him to the fish, sir.
59. Very good! Yes, the fish are always hungry.
60. No, please, sir. Don’t do that. I didn’t know-I didn't think.
61. That’s right, Peters, you didn’t think.
62. Very well, then, we won’t give you to the fish, for now.
63. I’m a kind man. I have a big heart, I’m thinking, why not be kind to the police, too? Why not give them a little something?
64. What about Roger Temple?
65. What do you mean, sir?
66. Why don’t you give the police some information about Roger Temple?
67. What a good idea, sir!
68. Yes, it is a good idea, isn’t it?
69. What is it, Basil? What’s going on?
70. There’s a car behind us, sir. I think it’s a police car.
71. A police car? You know what to do, don’t you, Basil?
72. Yes, sir.
73. Come on, hurry up. Mr. Williams. We’re nearly
74. Look out!
75. Er, sorry about the car.
76. That’s alright, man! It wasn’t mine! But what about you? Are you alright?
77. No, I’m not. Get me to a hospital, quickly!
78. Can I go home to Washdon now?
79. Oh no, not yet, Mr. Carter. But you’re doing very well. You’ll be out of here in a couple of weeks.

1. Good morning. Here we are outside our hotel in Brighton
2. Today we’re going for a walk in the beautiful countryside here,
3. And I must say, we’re lucky to have very nice weather for it,
4. We have some lunch, too—the hotel kindly made us some sandwiches—and we have a car.
5. This is the one.
6. Geez, it’s small, why is everything so damn small in this country? Small and old?
7. So, Alan’s going to drive, and I’m going to show him where to go,
8. I think I can remember how to get here. But I have a map anyway.
9. So honey, off we go! And remember: in Britain they drive on the other side of the road.
10. So where are we going?
11. We’re going to the Devil’s Dyke.
12. What did you say? “The Devil’s Dyke”?
13. Honey, in British English a “dyke” is like,
14. A kind of place between two hills where the ground, like, goes down,
15. Oh, yeah?
16. Anyway, just look at the road, Alan, and remember to drive on the left.
17. You already said that, about ten thousand times, so which way now?
18. Uh, take a left here, you see? Where the sign says “London”.
19. Ok, Devil’s Dyke.
20. Here, take a right here!
21. How can I take a right? All the other cars are going left.
22. No, you go left, and then you go round, and then you take a right.
23. What do you mean? But then we’ll go back the way we came, back into Brighton.
24. No, we won’t! Look, you see the sign saying “Lewes”.
25. No, where’s that? I can’t see it. Oh to hell with it, I’ll just go on!
26. That was just great, Alan. Now we’re on the freeway to London.
27. So we’ll go to London. I’m sure there are lots of old strange sounding places in London.
28. We’re not going to London, honey. You can take the next exit from the freeway, and go back the way we came.
29. That’s just what I said. We’re going back to Brighton.
30. Then why did we come here anyway? Why did we hire this crummy little car?
31. When we get back to that place where you didn’t take a right, like I asked you, you can take a left this time, OK?
32. Alright.
33. So, this is the exit. You take a left here, then you take a right.
34. And you take a left here, and then we’ll be back on the freeway but going the other way.
35. Oh, so we get to see the other side of the freeway? That’s great!
36. Now, you take a left here, Alan, do you think you can do that?

14. 2.
6. What did you do last night? Were you alone?
8. Are you often alone? Are you sad and lonely, without love?
10. You don’t need to be lonely any more. Our computer will find you your perfect lover.
14. Find your prefect lover! Just answer these easy questions: What are you like? Very attractive. Quite attractive. Not very attractive or unattractive.
18. Next question: What color is her hair: black, blonde, brown, or red? Blonde, of course.
19. So I’ll just go and get some new clothes. And then she’ll be mine. My
perfect lover. I can’t wait.
24. Come on, take it off! And your pants.
30. It’s not really my style, you know.
39. So this is your apartment, then? It’s not bad. How much do you pay for it? What’s the matter with you? Don’t you speak English?
44. No, I don’t want to
48. No, I don’t like dancing. It’s stupid.
55. And that little one, and a piece of that one, and a big piece of that one!
58. We don’t serve alcohol drinks, sir.
60. Isn’t it nice here?
64. That was lovely, John. Thank you. What’re you like without your glasses, John?  Can I take them off?
67. Yes, I think we’re a prefect couple.
71. Out of this room, turn right, and there it is, on the left.
 

14. 2 European Vacation
2. We’re only 5 miles from Brighton, but right in the heart of the country.
3. Just look at the view. You can see like 20 or 30 miles all round from here.
9. I told you, honey. Bring lots of warm clothes to England.
13. Now, you see those hills over there about 20 miles away? They’re the North Downs
15. In fact, there’s a joke about that: like, why call them “downs”, and not “ups”?
19. And it’s freezing up here, and I don’t have the right clothes for it. I’m fed up.
28. You just take a right here, and go straight till you see the sign for Brighton.
34. I just want some normal winter clothes, that’s all, what about that place over there?
35. Oh, yeah, well, these clothes aren’t exactly my style.
37. I don’t think you’ll get into any of them.
42. That’s all. Now, there’s this great place I went to last year; it’s just down the road.
44. For instance, with a nice green hat on your head, and a pair of black boots.
50. Now, this is my kind of place! Hey, look at this! They’re all American clothes.
57. Two hundred pounds for that coat, that’s nearly 350 dollars!
58. You can get one of those in the states for 200. It’s crazy! 350 bucks for a coat!
59. Who do these damn British think they are? Geez!
62. Will you just try doing something differently, just for once in your life?
66. Smart, modern, fashionable, sexy.
69. Well, you said it, honey.
80. You can wait here. Get a coffee or sandwiches or something.

Mini-dialogue
    So, how are you Mr. Berry? Oh, dear, can’t he talk? No, but it’s alright. You can talk to me. Are you his wife, then? Not yet, but we’re getting married soon. It’s OK, John. You’ll be alright. I see. Congratulations! Well, what happened to Mr. Berry? I don’t know, really. Were you with him at that time? Certainly not. He was in the toilet, actually. In the toilet? That’s very strange. I think, I’ll just have a look at him. Excuse me. Mr. Berry. Can you just turn this way, please? He won’t die, will he, doctor? Oh, no, of course not. He’ll be fine. You see. We’re getting married next month. And we want to have lots and lots of children. You don’t need to be worried. Mr. Berry will completely alright in two or three weeks. And you can have all the children in the world. Oh, that’s marvelous. Here, would you like some cake, doctor? No, thanks. I don’t eat cake. Oh, well, I’ll eat it then.

32. So you came back, you rat?
33. No, it isn’t. can you try to say it natually, please!
34. Look, what do you want? The first time I said it natually. And that wasn’t right.
35. Mary, can you say it natually, with an English accent?
36. Ok, so you came back, you rat?
37. Will that do?
38. Yes, that will do. The play is starting in 2 hours. God help us!
39. My God! Mary is in this play!
40. Oh, yes. Didn’t you know?
41. Of course I didn’t! You didn’t tell me! This is terrible!
42. I must go immediately. Excuse me, please!
43. What’s the matter, Marco? Why don’t you want to see her?
44. Oh, something happened in Rome. It wasn’t very nice. I really must go Aiko, excuse me!
45. Sssh! It’s starting!
46. Where is your husband, my lady?
47. I left him in Rome Delilah. I left him because he was a bad, bad man.
48. My heart, Dellilah, is broken, broken, broken! He did this to me!
49. And what if he comes back, my lady?
50. If he comes back, Delilah, I’ll say this to him: “so you came back, you rat?”
51. You sad, lonely little man! I know why you came back!
52. Because you’re nothing without me! Nothing! And you know that now! You belong to me, you little rat.
53. And do you know what I’ll do with you?
54. What will you do with him my lady?
55. I’ll break you into little pieces! Like that!
56. Well, what did you think of the play?
57. I was very… interesting. Well, I’ll go home now. See you, Aiko1
58. Aren’t you going to say hello to Mary? She will be very angry if you don’t.

60. Hi, there, everybody! Why hello, it’s Marco!
61. Oh, er…hello Mary!
62. Look, I’m very sorry you didn’t have a good time in Rome.
63. I mean, you’re a very modern girl, Mary, and my parents are a bit old fashioned, they just don’t like young people very much, I’m afraid.
64. It’s not just your parents, is it, Marco? Anyway, let’s forget about it! We can still be friends, can’t we?
65. Oh, yes, I hope so!
66. Anyway, did you see the play?
67. Of course I saw it. You looked at me all the time.

15.1 Section A
Hello!
Listen, Susan, I’m not coming home for lunch, Ok? I have a business appointment.
What? Why didn’t you tell me before, then? Oh, this is the last time I’m cooking for you!
Don’t be ridiculous, Susan. I just called to tell you I won’t be there, that’s all. Goodbye.
Why did I marry that man? Damn him!
No, I can’t just sit here and drink! That isn’t the answer! I must leave him… I think! Shall I phone Kristi?
Maybe. Oh God, I don’t know what to do! I’ll go for a walk! Maybe that’ll help……
That’s Roger-and Kristi! I can’t believe it! My friend Kristi, with my husband!
So it was her! She was the other woman. It’s incredible.
It’s horrible!
I don’t want to see you any more, Roger.
What do you mean, Kristi? You said you loved me!
No, I didn’t! I never said that!
Come on, Kristi! I love you, you know that. I love your hair and your eyes, and your-
Don’t do that!
You don’t love me, Roger! You don’t know what that word means! Oh, why don’t you go back to Susan?
What are you talking about?
Go back to Susan, she’s a good woman. She’s much better than me! I’m no good, Roger!
I’m no good to you, or to her, or to anybody!
Kristi! Come back! Where are you going!
Give me the bill next time, Ok, Remzo?
Did you see Miss Kristi Schmidt? Come on! Is she in her room?
Er…what…er…who?
Miss Kristi Schmidt! She’s a guest in this hotel!
Oh, I see.
Well, where is she? I must see her immediately! It’s very urgent!
Oh, er…perhaps she’s in her room.
Which room is that?
Wait a moment…
Er…Room 38!Oh!
Oh!
Kristi, let me in, please! Let me in!!!
Oh, no!
Now what’s going on, Kristi? Why did you leave the restaurant?
Listen, Roger, I mean what I say. I don’t want to see you any more.
Don’t talk like that, please, Kristi! You know how much I need you!
Stay away from me! I mean it! I’ll call the police! Help, help, there’s a strange man in my room.
Oh, dear! Are you alright, Miss SC…Sch…Schm…?
Get this man out of my room, will you?
I’m going anyway! Get out of my way!
Oh! Ah!
Why do I always go out with bastards like him? Why can’t I find a good, kind man, for once? A man who really respects me! Oh, damn it!
Hello, Susan
Help, Roger. How was your “business” lunch?
It was alright. Listen, I’m going to bed for a couple of hours. I need to think.
Did you talk about important business?
Yes, quite important. Look, why are you so interested in my lunch?
Because I saw you, Roger.  You were with Kristi. I know everything now.
What are you talking about, Susan? I just had a business lunch with Kristi, that’s all, She wanted to talk about, er a business idea.
A business idea?  I’m not that stupid! I know want kind of business you have with Kristi.
Well, you can do what you like, Roger. But not with me. I don’t want to see you again!
What!!? What do you mean: you don’t want to see me again? We are married, Susan!
Not for long. I want a divorce, Roger.
Ok Susan, alright. Let me tell you what happened. Yes, Kristi and I went out together, but it’s over now. And that’s the truth.
Of course, of course. That’s why you had lunch with her.
I’m telling you it’s true, Susan! Look, you can call Kristi and ask her, if you don’t believe me.
Call Kristi? How can I possibly call her? How can you even think of it? You’re a bastard, Roger, a real bastard!
Hey, Susan, look, I’m really sorry. Really! Listen, I’m going to Trinidad this evening on business.
Why don’t you come too, and we can have a vacation, and start over? Forget about all this!
No, Roger, I don’t want to start over, and I’ll never forget about all this.
You don’t love me; you married only me to get a job.
That’s not true!
Yes, it is. You married me because my father is an airline president. Well, It’s over now.
What’s over?
Don’t worry, Roger. I don’t mean your job. But I want you out of this apartment, now, Ok?
I’m mot going, Susan; this apartment is mine, too. I’ll stay here if I want to.
I’ll call the police!
Go on then, call them! I don’t mind. I’m the boss in my house, with my wife!
Help! Police! Come here, please!
Stop that, Susan! Don’t do that! It’s alright, I’m going! Goodbye!

15.1 European Vacation
Well, here I am, enjoying a delicious cappuccino at a fashionable cafe in Brighton. As you can see, this place is very, uh…fashionable for all the…um…fashionable young people here in Brighton. I’m waiting here for Alan, for my husband Alan, so we can go shopping and buy him some winter clothes. And here he comes now.
So, did you get Alice?
No, she was out, damn it!
Alice, by the way, is Alan’s ex-wife. They were married for fifteen years, and then she left him two years ago, for a… who did she go off with, honey? It was an Italian waiter, wasn’t it?
Look, I don’t thing I want you telling everyone about my private life.
Yeah, that was it. As I said, Alice left Alan two years age, for an Italian waiter. And he was fifteen years younger than her, too! People talked! You know how they are.
Will you stop it please, Deborah?
So after that, Alan and Alice divorced, of course. That was over two year’s age. But he still calls her from time to time, I don’t really know why. In fact, he really calls her a lot; like just now, for instance. Even now that Alan and I are on vacation, on our honeymoon, Alan still calls Alice, nearly everyday.
That’s enough, Deborah! I wanted to talk to her about business, that’s all. As you know! Now can we please talk about something else! Ok, have you ordered anything?
Why of course. I have! I’ve been here for nearly an hour, I had a cappuccino.
Ok, I’ll go order a coffee and a sandwich, coffee, with milk, please, and a cheese sandwich! Yeah, at the table. Geez, what a day!
It hasn’t exactly been a great day for me.
And I’m still damn cold, too!
So you need to get some nice winter clothes, right?
Of course I do.
Ok, now, while you were back at the hotel, I sat here and just looked at some of the other guys. I got lots of ideas for your change of style.
What change of style?
Like, take a look at that guy over there.
What about him?
Well,  a guy like that has real style, know what I mean?
Why don’t you dress something like him, for instance?
Look, Deborah, I’m 20years older than him, and about 100 pounds heavier. How can I possibly dress like him?
It’s just an idea. That’s all.
So why don’t you dress something like her, then? That girl over there.
You want me to look like that? Is that what you would like? You want a young girl like her?
Well, of course, any guy would. I mean, that’s just normal.
You think its normal, on your honeymoon, to go looking at young girls?
But you looked at those other guys!
That was different! I was just interested in their clothes!
Ah, what’s the use? Geez, this is some vacation! Some honeymoon!
It started bad, and it gets worse every day. First we went on that damn pier, and I get sick. Then we went to that other place, where everything was 600 years old, and I got sick again. And we went to look for lunch, but we didn’t find anything which was OK by you, so, no lunch. Then what happened? Ohm yes, we went to have dinner with your friends sorry, to cook dinner for your friends, only they there, so we cooked something which I hate, which I can’t eat, so yeah, I cooked it, and then I put it down the toilet. So that was another great evening. Then we went for a walk, no, no, first we went for a long drive around all the freeways and roundabouts in the south of England, and then we went for a walk, in the Devil’s Icebox or something only it was colder than an icebox…
So we came back here to buy some clothes. Only I can’t buy the clothes I want because I have no style, because I’m only some American from Pittsburgh, not some British lord or Italian duke or something. Geez.
Have you finished?
Yeah, I really thin I have.
I don’t know how you can talk to me like that, Alan!
I bring you to England, I show you my favorite places, all these lovely, historic places, and that’s all you can say! You haven’t said one nice thing about any place all that time. We’re been here! It’s always: "Geez, it’s so old,” or “Geez, it’s so small,” Where is the poetry in you, Alan? Maybe there isn’t any poetry in me, Deborah! Maybe I’m not want you think I am! Maybe you married the wrong guy!
And maybe you married the wrong woman! Why didn’t you stay with Alice? Why don’t you go back to her now?
Will you keep Alice out of this? And keep your voice down!
I know why you don’t go back to her! Because she won’t have you. Because she’s gotten herself someone else? That’s right, isn’t it?
I said, keep your voice down!
So you went and got someone else too, the first person you found just anyone and that was me!
You don’t really want me; you just wanted to hurt Alice.
Go on, say it, it’s true!
Ah, to hell with it! It’s impossible to talk to you, Deborah!
I’m going!
Where to?
I don’t know! To play golf! Back to Pittsburgh!
To the devil!
Sorry about that. So that was my husband, Alan. Uh…I think he’s a little angry today. Well, uh…see you all later bye for now!

57. Oh! Would you like some more?
58. Yes, thanks. I don’t usually drink much. Mr. Carter, but my cold is very bad today!
59. Should I turn on the fire?
60. No, it’s quite warm in here, thanks Er…where’s that smoke coming from?
61. Oh my God! That’s our dinner.
62. I hope we can eat this.
63. Oh, I’m sure we can eat it! People eat worse things than this. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean that!
64. Oh well, cheers, Mr. Carter!
65. Why don’t you call me Harry?
66. And you can call me Susan.
67. Cheers, Susan.
68. …Harry!
69. Oh dear, my glass is empty!

71. And how I’m alone! Alone! I don’t want to be alone, Harry! I don’t want to be alone! I don’t want to…!
72. Oh, no! Susan! Are you alright? Is she alright? What am I going to do? I’ll just let her sleep here. Good night Susan, sleep well.

15.2 European Vacation
Well, here I am in the heart of Brighton, where all the interesting and fashionable stores are. It’s raining right now; I think I’ll do some shopping. Maybe I’ll buy some gifts for the people back home. Yeah. And, uh, well, as you can see, I’m without my husband Alan, right at the moment. He’s gone…somewhere. Yeah, well… let’s try this cute little store here. Maybe I can find a nice gift for my mom. Maybe not this one. Let’s try the one next door. No, this isn’t quite her style either. I’m sure I saw a real cute little place back there somewhere… Definitely not that one. Not this one either. Why are all the stores here so strange? And it’s really raining hard now. Gee, I don’t have my umbrella with me; I left it in the hotel. I don’t know. Maybe I’ll go back there now, see if Alan’s there. I don’t think he’s gone to Pittsburgh…
So I got to play golf at last! Ok, it’s raining. In fact, it’s raining really hard. But, the way I see it, golf in the rain is better than no golf at all. And also, here I am in England, which is, like, the home of golf. Yeah, it was king somebody-or-other, I dunno, maybe Henry the something-or-other, whatever, who played the first game of golf, way back in the year…15 something-or-other or maybe it was 16. Yeah, well, whatever. I mean. I’m not really an expert on history. But I am an expert on golf. I was a professional golfer for 12 years, in fact. From when I was 21 till when I was 33. I made a good living, too. When I stopped playing I had nearly a million bucks. Then I put that money into a store-all of it. Yeah, I opened a store selling golfing stuff: you know, clothes, balls, gloves, books, videos, whatever. There are five of those stores now; all over the state and they’re all mine. Yeah, well, mine and Alice’s. Alice, my ex-wife. Yeah, well, we don’t what to talk about her; we don’t even want to think about her. Must try this shot again… Darn it! Geez, that was terrible! I’ve seen 5-year-old kids play better than that. It’s because I’m thinking about damn Alice! And damn Deborah, too! Geez, damn women! Like my old Dad said: you can’t live with them; you can’t live without them! Darn it! I’m going to try that shot again…
Well, hello there! Here I am, back in the lobby of the hotel, having afternoon tea. I can see visitors here from all around the world: there are plenty of Americans, of course, and Japanese and many other Europeans, like, there is a group of French people over there and some Italians… but I can’t see Alan- my husband, Alan. He’s not in our room; I asked, of course. So maybe he went, I don’t know, for a walk. Yeah. He’s on vacation; he can take a walk if he want to, can’t he? No problem. I’m sure he’ll be right back, I’m sure he didn’t go back to Pittsburgh...
Oh, Geez! That was horrible! I’m getting worse, not better. Don’t think about these damn women, just think about golf. There’s no finer game! Golf, the game of kings, and the king of games! Golf is my wife! Golf is my life! Yeah! Who needs a woman, when you can get a good game of golf? Only problem is this damn rain! Never mind I’m sure it will stop soon!
So, I’m still in the hotel lobby, drinking some more afternoon tea. Yeah, I’ve had about six cups of tea by now. I’ve tried all the different kinds they have. They had all these cookies and cakes too, but I just said “no", like a good girl. You know me: if I just think about cake-wham! I put on a couple of pounds. So, no cakes or cookies for me. And no Alan, either. Maybe he went for a really really long walk. No, I don’t think so, I know he doesn’t like walking. Or maybe he went to see a movie. Or maybe he went back to Pittsburgh. Maybe he really did. Maybe he was that mad… The rain isn’t stopping; it’s getting worse! Ah, Geez! I can’t play golf in this damn rain. It’s impossible! Ah, this is just so damn stupid! I never wanted to play golf on my own, anyway. I wanted to play a round of golf with Deborah. That’s the truth. Darn it! Oh, Geez, I’m going to go back to the hotel, I guess she’ll be there by now. I don’t know what I’m going to say to her…
I really think I’ve had enough tea now. I’ve had uh…ten cups. Yeah, I really can’t drink any more tea. Don’t mistake me; I like tea. I really do, but, uh… I’ve had enough now so what am I going to do? I don’t know, I just wait a moment, who’s that coming through the door. Yes, it’s him. It really is! Alan!
-Hello Deborah!
-Hello, Alan, you look wet.
-That’s because I am wet. It’s raining
-Yeah.
-Very hard.
-Yeah. Uh…where have you been?
-I went to play golf.
-Oh, of course! Did you have a good round?
-No, I had terrible round.
-Oh, gee! Why was that?
-Because of the damn rain! And because you weren’t there.
-Yeah?
-Look, I’m sorry. Deborah, for just walking off like that. I was so mad.
-That’s alright, honey. Anyway, you came back, didn’t you?
-Listen Deborah, I don’t want to go back to Alice. I want to be with you.
-Is that really true, honey?
-Yes, of course it is. Why do you think I married you?
-Oh, gee! I don’t know what to say.
-Then don’t say anything, honey.
-Well, that’s all for now. See you next time, folks.

Section E European Vacation
1 Well, here we are in Brighton, we’ve made up, we’ve said we’re sorry, and we’ve gotten back together again, haven’t we honey.
2 Yeah, we have.
3 And we’re going to have a really romantic vacation from now on, aren’t we, honey?
4 You said it.
5 We’re only going to go to really romantic places, and do really romantic things. No more going off alone.
6 No more cooking dinner for people who weren’t there.
7 No more going and playing golf without me.
8 No more 100-mile walks in the freezing cold.
9 No, we’re going to stay together all the time, and have a really great, really romantic vacation.
10 That’s right.
11 And we are starting right here. This place is Brighton Pavilion and it has the most romantic story.
12 Can I tell you the story of Brighton Pavilion, honey?
13 I think you are going to tell me anyway.
14 Ok, well, there was this prince, right? He was the Prince of Wales, which means, like, he was the son of the king.
15 Well, he was in love with a beautiful lady, and she said to him, like what can you do to show me?
16 Like, I want you to show me that you really love me? Really, really love me. So, the prince went and built this place, this Pavilion, OK?
17 Just for this lady, just for her love, isn’t that the most romantic things you ever heard?
18 So, what happened?
19 What do you mean--- what happened?
20 I mean—did the prince get what he wanted?
21 Did he get what he wanted? That’s not a very romantic why of saying it.
22 I mean after he spent, like, millions of bucks on this lady, did she just say, like.
23 “Thank you very much, Mr. Prince. Nice place, see you around.”
24 I don’t know, honey. Let’s go in and take a look around, OK?
25 So- what did you think of that, honey? Isn’t it romantic?
26 Yeah, it’s a kind of neat.
27 Kind of neat? Is that all?
28 Don’t worry, honey, I liked it, OK? It’s neat, it’s cute, so what do we do now?
29 I’ve just had the most amazing idea.
30 Yeah?
31 Listen, honey, what’s the most romantic place in the world?
32 Un… Cincinnati?
33 No, the most romantic place in the world is… Pairs, of course.
34 Ok, yeah, well that’s what they say, so?
35 Well, it’s only a couple of hundred miles from here. Why don’t we go and spend a few days there? We can have a honeymoon in Pairs!
36 Yeah, that a neat idea. Great! I’ve never been to France only things is, I don’t speak French.
37 That’s alright, honey. Je parle un pen francais.
38 Hey, you’re a real sophisticated lady, Deborah.
39 That’s right honey, you married a woman of the world.
40 So how long is the flight to Pairs? I guess it’s real short.
41 We’re not flyingto Pairs, we’re going by ship!
42 By ship? Why?
43 Because it’s more romantic, I mean, like, anyone can fly.
44 That’s just… you know normal, but going by ship, is, like, more special, it’s more romantic.
45 So there is a ship that goes to Pairs? How?
46 No honey, we get a ship from Newhaven, in England, which is, like, just a few miles from here.
47 to Dieppe, in France. Then we get a train from Dieppe to Pairs.
48 Un-huh.
49 Here’s the travel shop. I’ll go in and get our tickets, we can go to Pairs tomorrow, why not?
50 Sure! Hey I know; you go in and get the tickets, and I’ll go look for an American newspaper.
51 I haven’t seen one since we left the States, and I want to read about baseball results.
52 Hi, there. This is going to be just so romantic. We have our tickets to Pairs.
53 We have our passport and here we are, outside Brighton train station.
54 “Brighton railway station”, as they say in Britain.
55 Good, honey, you’re learning! Right, so we are going to get a train to Newhaven, and then we get the ship to France.
56 But I still want to buy an American newspaper. I didn’t fiael one yesterday.
57 Never mind, honey.
58 I haven’t seen an American newspaper since we left the States and I want to read about baseball results.

2. Our honeymoon trip to Paris! Right now we’re at the train station in Newhaven.
3. And we’re just going to get a ship to Dieppe, in France. And then, Paree, here we come!
4. Oh-la-la! Isn’t it exciting, honey?
5. Yeah, but…this place is like…nowhere, I mean, this is an international port.
6. With ship going all over the world? It sure doesn’t look like it.
7. I mean, just look at the train station, will you? Geez!
8. Oh, don’t worry about it, honey, we’re going to get on the ship now. That’s where the adventure really starts. And it’s learning in less than an hour!
9. Ok, show me the way to go, honey…
10. So this is the ferry terminal.
11. The fairly terminal? What like Peter Pan? So we’re flying after all, aren’t we?
12. No, honey, “ferry” is just the British word for a ship. Well, you know.
13. A ship which takes, like cars and trucks and stuff. Only thing is… where is everybody?
14. There aren’t any people, or cars, or trucks, or anything.
15. And where the hell’s our fairy? Doesn’t it go at 10:15?
16. Maybe it’s gone already.
17. No, that’s impossible! It’s only 9:40!
18. Oh, no! look at this notice! The next ferry goes at 22:15. That’s 10:15ing the evening! I don’t understand it.
19. I’ll go and ask someone what the hell’s going on.
20. This is just crazy. You aren’t going to believe this.
21. What’s happen?
22. There isn’t a ferry at 10:15 in the morning. It goes at 10:15 in the evening.
23. But I thought…
24. Take a look at the ticket, Deborah. You have got them, haven’t you?
25. Yeah, sure. Newhaven to Dieppe. 10:15 p.m.
26. That’s alright, 10:15p.m, not 10:15a.m. you do know the difference, don’t you?
27. Honey, don’t be horrible to me. It’s only a little mistake.
28. A little mistake? A 12 hours mistake! 12 damn hours in this nowhere place.
29. Hey, this is no way to have a romantic honeymoon!
30. Look, we’ll just try to have a good time here in Newhaven.
31. So what are we going to do all day in this….butchole of a town?
32. We’ll find something. I’m sure there are lots of romantic place in Newhaven. Let’s go look for them.
33. Wow! Romantic or what? Who needs Paris and Rome, when you can come to Newhaven.
34. And then we get the ferry in the evening. At least we’ll be together, won’t we?
35. Yeah, well, it doesn’t look the great, but you know, maybe if we just…
36. Like, look around a bit we’ll find somewhere cute or historic,
37. We can do some shopping, any way.
38. At least, I’ll have time to buy a newspaper. You know, I haven’t read an American newspaper all the time we’ve been in England.
39. I know, honey, you’re already told me twice, in fact.
40. Anyway, Here is a bookstore.
41. Oh, I’ll try in here. No, of course, they don’t have any  American papers.
42. I guess not many Americans come to Newhaven, I can’t think why so.
43. Well, that’s the romantic bookstore, we’re only got…
44. Ten and three quarter hours to wait now. What next?
45. There’s a supermarket over there.
46. Wow! It’s even more romantic than the bookstore. 
47. Look Alan, why not try to have a good time, Ok? So let’s go in to supermarket, at least. Hey, what’s the matter?
48. Geez! I’ve just remembered! What date is it today? It’s the twenty-first, isn’t it?
49. Yeah, why?
50. I must call Alice. It’s really important.
51. Not Alice again!
52. Look, this is really urgent, ok? I’ll tell you later. Now, where’s a payphone?
53. You know something, every time you start thing about Alice, you stop thing about me. Is she more important to you than I am?
54. Later, honey, I must find a payphone.
55. So this is going to be our life together, this is how our honeymoon is going to be?

Mini-Dialogue

From Kristi Schmidt: Hundreds of journalists from all of Europe were at Washday Airport this afternoon to meet Germany’s football superstar Manfred Pilzbanm coming in for next Wednesday’s Would Cup match against Italy. What has Pilzbanm got that’s so special? Last year he earned over 3,000,000 German marks, and it’s impossible these days to open a newspaper without seeing his name. “ After all, you are a soccer player, not an Einstein or a Schopenhauer?” I put it to him. “ So how many World Cup goals has this Schopenhauer guy scored, eh?” he asked. I told them that Schopenhauer was a philosopher not a soccer played. “ I’m a philosophy too. I’ll tell you my philosophy.” Pilzbanm said. “ You need exactly the same thing in football as you need in life. And in life, you need two of them. Do you get it?” “ I got it.”

- We are coming in!
- Stand over there by that window!
- And put your hands on your head.
- My hands on my head?
- Just do what I say! Ok?
- But… if I put my hands on my head the tablecloth will fall down.
- Oh, alright! Put one hand on your head and keep the other one on the tablecloth.
- Gee, I’m sorry, guys. I didn’t expect you, you see. I usually have sheet on my bed. It’s just that I forgot to the Laundromat this weekend, so that’s why I…
- Just shut up, will you? Ok, I’ll look in here and you look in the bedroom, Bedges.
- Well, there’s nothing in here.
- Have you found anything, Bedge?
- Just some magazines.
- What kind of magazine?
- I’m just taking a look.
- What do you think you’re doing? Put that magazine down!
- Sorry about that.
- I don’t understand this at all. I think I’ll have a word with Mr. Carter.
- Henson here, sir, over.
- Carter here. How’s it going? Over.
- Not very will, sir, we haven’t found anything, except some… man’s magazines. Over.
- Then you haven’t tried enough. Have you looked under the antique furniture? Have you looked inside the antique statues? Over.
- What? There aren’t any antiques in here. Over.
- Well, is there anybody in the apartment? Over.
- Yes, there is a strange guy here. Over.
- What does he look like? Over.
- He’s got black hair, and glasses, and he’s like, wearing a tablecloth.
- I think he’s a bit, kind of simple-if you know what I mean. Over.
- You idiots! You ‘re in the wrong bloody apartment. Hugo Peters’s apartment is next door! Over.
- Well. This is apartment 3B. Over.
- Excuse me, guys, if you’re looking for Hugo Peters, he doesn’t-
- Just shut up, will you! I didn’t ask your opinions.
- I told you to go to apartment 3A, didn’t I?
- So what the hell are you waiting for? Get on with it – now! Over and out.
- Well. Come on, let’s go!
- Are you off now?
- Thank you very much for your help, sir!
- That’s enough, come on!
- Good night guys! Thanks for everything!
- You know, Dad, I’m glad you bought apartment 3c now. I don’t like it at first, but I do now.
- It really wasn’t easy to sell 3A after that terrible party. Anyway, I’ve sold it now, and I still got a good price.
- Anyway, I think 3C’s much nicer. It’s bigger than 3A, and I prefer the color.
- Well, here we are.
- Is that a police car outside the house!
- What are they doing, do you think?
- I don’t know, but it looks like that damned Harry Carter again. I’ve had enough of that man!
- Have you done anything wrong, Dad?
- You just stay by the car for a moment, dear.
- Good evening, Mr. Peters.
- What the hell are you doing here?
- Be careful while you talk to me, Mr. Peters. I’ve got two of my men in your apartment at the moment.
- You have no right to do that! No right at all.
- Oh, yes, I have! I’ve got this, look!
- May I read it, please?
- Very well, here you are.
- Why are you laughing? What is it? What’s so funny?
- You’ve gone to apartment 3A, haven’t you? I’m sorry to tell you, Mr. Carter, but I’ve moved, I live in 3C now.
- What?
- Yes, there is sweet lady in apartment 3A now. Do tell your men to be gentle with her. Won’t you? She is a bit… let’s say, fragile.
- Sorry about that! Goodnight, Mr. Carter!
- It’s alright. Annie, there’s no problems. Let’s go up to the apartment.

- So the score is still Germany 2, Italy 1. Only 2 minutes to go, and it’s almost over now for Italy. If they lose this match, they’ll be out of the World Cup. Germany are still in control, Pilzbaun’s got the ball – he passes it to Schinkenbrot.
- How different the two teams are – the Germans play like a perfect machine.
- Almost – Pipstrelli’s coming up now- he’s got the ball he passes it to Lucertola- Lucertola’s got a chance now.
- Come on, Italy, Come on!
- It’s 2 to 1 Marco. We’re going to win!
- So will Lucertola take his chance? Nom Fussknodel’s coming up on his might – It’s too late. It’s a goal.
- It’ s another GOAL for Italy!!!
- So with that last incredible goal by Lucertola, 5 seconds before the end. The final score is Germany 2, Italy 2 – It’s a draw!
- What will this mean to Germany’s Cup chances now? That was an amazing watch. Thanks a lot, Marco.
- Don’t thank me, thank Pilzbaum. Well – no – you can thank me too, if you like.
- What do we do now? Why don’t we go for a meal? There is a nice Chinese restaurant near here.
- No, it’s too late.
- What’s the time?
- It’s half past tin, I have to get up early tomorrow.
- Oh, dear!
- But you can come back to my hotel for a drink if you like.
- Oh, really?
- Yes, why not?
- Italy against Germany, part 2.
- Not against Germany, surely, Marco?
- Alright, then. Italy with Germany. Is that better?

REPORT ON A VISIT TO TWO APARTMENTS IN NORTH WASHDON.
Together with two other officers, Detective Henson and Detective Bedges, I visited Truleigh Cart, in Cherch Street, Washdon, on Wednesday the 23rd of May. Henson drove the car, Bedges sat in the passenger seat, and I sat behind. We left Head office at 10:49pm. And we arrived in Church Street at 11:23pm; so the journey took 34 minutes. We stopped opposite the front door on the other side of the road, in front of a blue Toyota. Henson and Bedges got out of the car to go up to apartment 3A, and I stayed in the car to… watch the situation. Henson and Bedges visited two apartments: number 3A and 3B. A gentleman and an old lady helped them with their work, and they came out of the house at 12:11am. We then went back to Head Office. Henson drove the car, and Bedges sat in the passenger seat. We arrived back at Head Office at 12:37am.
Signed, Detective Inspector HD Carter.

- Is this your hotel? It looks terrible!
- Yes, it’s terrible. I’d like to change my hotel, but I can’t find enough time. I’m too busy.
- Anyway, you go in first, quickly and very quietly and wait for me outside my room, ok? I’ll get the key from the receptionist.
- But won’t he see me?
- Don’t worry. He’ll be asleep. He’s always asleep. Just be careful you don’t wake him up.
- Ok. Which is your room?
- Room 38! Ready? Let’s go!

- Oh, your key! You want your key, do you? I see. I’m sorry. Miss sc…
- Good night!
- Hello!
- Sssh!
- Phew! Here we are, then.
- The old man saw me, didn’t he?

- What’s that?
- It’s a drink made of beer.
- Cheers, Marco!
- Cheers. Kristi! Ough! It’s strong, isn’t it?

- I’m going to take a look!
- No, Doris, come back. Oh, hell!
- What do you think you’re doing, young lady? Oscar, come here! Come here, immediately!
- Look, Oscar, she’s brought a young man to her room! Now what kind of hotel is this? How can you bring me to a place like this? I want to stay in a family hotel!
- Perhaps they’re married, Doris! Look, can’t we go back to our room?
- I’m going to complain.
- Look, I’m sorry about this. My wife doesn’t sleep very well, you see.
- That’s alright but would you close the door, please?
- What are we going to do?
- Then, we can’t stay here, can we? Why don’t w go to your place?
- It’s only a room in a student hostel. Anyway, are you sure you want to?
- Yes, why not? I’m not tired any more.
- There they are!
- Oh, dear! Are you alright, Miss Sc..er?
- Yes, I’m quite alright, thanks.
- What do you mean? Is she alright? What about me?
- Ah, there he is! I was right; I did see a young man!
- Do you remember Miss Sc..? I told you there was a young man around.
- It’s alright; he’s a friend of mine.
- A friend of hers! Huh! That’s too much! We’re leaving here tomorrow! This isn’t my kind of hotel Oscar.
- Perhaps, there’s a misunderstanding, Doris.
- No, I understand what’s happening very well. Oscar!
- Come on! We’ll go back to our room now.
- Goodnight, everybody!
- Goodnight, Miss Sc…
- Let’s go to your hostel then, Marco.
- So here we are!
- Phew, at last!
- Have a seat, Kristi, I haven’t got anything to drink. I’m afraid not even coffee.
- It’s alright. I’m not thirsty.
- Let’s listen to some music, some Italian music, why not?
- So, Italy and Germany, Part 2.
- That’s right.
- Hello, Marco!
- Oh, you’re busy.
- Hello, Mary! I didn’t expect to see you.
- Oh, do I have to make an appointment, then? Do I have to call your secretary and say “May I see possibly Mr. Benini for 5 minutes sometime next month.” If that isn’t too much to ask? And I thought we were friends!
- Of course, we’re friends, Mary. It’s just that… you know. I’d like to know when you’re coming, so I can, like be ready for you.
- Huh! Well, who’s your lady friend, then? You haven’t introduced us yet!
- It’s alright, I think I’ll go home.
- Look, I’m sorry Kristi. I had no idea that.
- Don’t worry about it, Marco. It was just one of those evenings, wasn’t it?
- Bye-bye.
- I’ve got your number. I’ll give you a call, why don’t I?
- Sure, if you like!
- I’m glad she’s gone! I don’t like her at all!
- So we’re alone together at last, right? Aren’t you even going to give me a kiss?
- That’s better! Ok, I’ll tell you why I’ve come to see you. We’re having a party and I’d like you to…

Friday July 31st.

Dear Kristi,
I’m very sorry about what happened the other night. I don’t want you to get the wrong idea about me; I don't have hundreds of girlfriends. Actually I don’t have a girlfriend at all at the moment. Mary is just a friend, that’s all. I didn’t expect to see her that night; we didn’t have a date, or anything. I mean it; please believe me. Anyway, what I wanted to say was this: I really like you very much, Kristi; I have a very good time at the match with you. What happened at your hotel and back here was all quite funny, wasn’t it? I hope we can forget about it all, and try again soon. I remember you said that you liked opera. Well, I have two tickets for Puccini’s “ Madam Butterfly” next Friday. I do hope you cam come. I’ve thought about you a lot since that evening.
Hoping we can meet again soon.

Love Marco (Benini)

18.3 Section A

Most people do their shopping in a supermarket, but for fresh fruit and vegetables, many shoppers prefer an outdoor market.
It’s summer, and the stores are full of soft fruit, like strawberries, peaches and black currents as well as the annual favorite apples, pears and oranges. Seasonal vegetables including potatoes, peas, onions and cabbages. I’m going to talk to some shoppers and some of the traders and find out that they are selling and buying here today.
- So how much is your banana?
- 35 pence a pound.
- Oh, they look nice, so I’ll have a pound.
- Help yourself, anyone you like.
- Are these pears ripe?
- Not quite.
- So how long would I have to keep them before they are good to eat?
- Three or four days.
- I’ll take a pound.
- Right.
- David, can you tell me how long have you worked in the market here?
- Twenty, about twenty-two years.
- So you know you job by now.
- Not, I’m still learning it all the time, the same as it?
- Excuse me, I see that you’re buying some mangos.
- Yes.
- Have you ever tried them before?
- Yes, many times.
- But they are not usual fruit to see on sale in England.
- No, well, we got used to eating them when we lived in Africa, and there is all rather nice actually, so I shall buy one.
- Are they very expensive?
- Compare to Africa, yes. But do you think they are good buy, though?
- At this price, yes, 80 pence each is not too bad considering them much more expensive elsewhere.
- What are the things you’re buying today?
- Some peaches, cherries and apples, possibly bananas.
- Excuse me, sir. I see that you are buying some vegetables.  Can you tell me what you are buying?
- Yes, I’m going to get some beans. They just come into season now. I’m going to have some green peppers, and I’m also going to have a couple of courgette and some broccoli, I think.
- Tell me about broccoli, what does it taste like?
- Well, it tastes like most other greens I suppose.
- It’s very well done, stirred, quite lightly, then, it’s quite delicious.
- How much is it today? Twenty-five p for half a pound. And that’s not bad.
- I can see that you’re looking at the marrow too. Yes, they just come into season by the look of it. And I..
- I think I’ll probably take a marrow and stuff it when I got home.
- You’ll stuff your marrow?
- Yes, yes, you stuff it with meat, bake it in the oven and it’s quite nice when they are right.
- How about fruit? Are you going to be buying any fruit today? Yes, I think nectarines are beginning to come in. Apples, apricots are not         taste thes days. They look a bit small.
- Excuse me, I just see that you bought some strawberrioes.
- Yes.
- Why did you choose strawberries today?
- For the baby. She likes them.
- Are they good to buy?
- Yes, I hope so.
- What other fruit do you like to buy here?
- All sorts of fruit, perhaps, nectarines, vegetable.
- Do you always buy those sorts of food in the market rather than in the supermarket or shop.
- Yes, because they are usually cheaper and usually fresher.
- Is it good value for money?
- Yes, I think so.
- And what’s your favorite food? What do you most like to eat?
- Fruit and fresh vegetables because they are good for you.

Dear Mr. Berry,
I’m writing to you about an accident which happened at the Go West Gas Station on Wednesday 19 March. You will of course remember that at that time you were an attendant ant the Gas Station employed by my client Mr. Bent Cashbox. My client tells me that a large truck belonging to the Assoil Gas Company came into the Go West Gas Station on that morning, and the driver asked you to fill the tank. You filled his tank, with gas, my client tells me, so that he has just had a letter from the lawyers of the Assoil Gas Company asking for $12.850 to pay for the damage to the truck. I am asking you, Mr. Berry, to pay this, plus my own costs in the matter, let us say, $20,000 in all. I’m sure you would not like me to put this into anyone else’s hands, if you see what I mean. I hope to hear form you soon.
Yours N.G. Sinistery

I’ll just have to ask you a couple of questions.
First, do you have a driver’s license?

Now, I wrote to you last week. Did you get my letter?
Yes thank you, Mr. Black.
And have you thought which kind of computer you’re going to get?
Well, it’s real kind of you Mr. Black, but you know. I think I can do without a computer.
You see I only have a small store. I just sell fruit and vegetable, you know.
Then you certainly can’t do without a computer. Your customers expect it.
These days if you haven’t got a computer, people think you’re old-fashioned. They think you just don’t try.
A computer’s not a luxury these days. So when can I come over and see you?
But I don’t think I can afford a computer.
Oh-don’t worry about that. They’re cheaper than you think.
So, what about next Wednesday at three?
Ok, but-
Bye-bye for now!
Stupid old idiot? Don’t you get fed up with all these little guys, Jim? “I don’t think I can afford a computer. ”I don’t know Mantion. Little fish, big fish; when you’re hungry any fish is better than none.

Her name is Jolene; She’s really something!
Very nice for you, Martin. Don’t work too hard, oh? Well see you in the morning!
Hey Jim, my head is killing me! You haven’t got a few aspirins or something, have you?
Got a headache, have you? Sorry, can’t help you.
Here’s you table, “Sir”?
Thank you what about a bit of champagne, Jolene?
Why, I love champagne, Mr. Black!
Oh, you mustn’t call me Mr. Black- Martin’s my name.
Ok, Martin!
Hey, you! A bottle of champagne, please
So, what do you thin of Washdon, Jolene? Have you even been here before?
No, I guess not. I’ve ever been to Mexico, but I’ve never been to Washdon.
Well, how do you find it?
Wow! I haven’t really thought about it, you know.
Here’s your champagne, Sir ”!
Only a little for me, please. “I don’t want to get drunk!”
Oh, you don’t want to worry about that! Well, cheers, Jolene!
Cheers, Martin1
Maybe I can show you around Washdon? I’ve got a great new car-you know the new Bmws? -and-aaaagh!
What’s the matter, are you alright?
No! I think it’s my heart. I’ve got a terrible pain here! Aagh!

Get me a doctor! Come on do something!
Oh, right!
Now don’t go away now, will you?
 
19.3 Section A
I’m standing here at a petrol station on the main south coast road between Brighten and Eastbourne in the County of Sussex. It’s a very busy road; so many cars stop here to fill up with petrol. Let’s talk to a few of the customers. Let’s start off by talking to you, Sir. How much metering do you do a year? Not very much, just going to and from work. Do you have more than one car in you family? Yes my wife got a car as well, yes.
So do you find motoring expensive? I suppose it’s pretty expensive really. Yeah, but there again I again I suppose, if we went by train, you know, that’s probably a bit more actually. I would work out more.
Do you think that we ought to be encouraged to us public transport more? Oh, very much so, actually. Perhaps it makes it cheaper. Yeah, I’m very much in favor of subsidized public transport.
I mean I think really we will be better to keep cars off the road altogether. Thank you very much indeed. O, Thank you, Right.
And here’s the lady filling up her Nissan car. What do you like about this car? It’s easy to drive, and economical, easy to park because it’s small, and it got quite good.  
What about the driving on the road? What do you think the standard of drivers that you meet?
I actually only passed my text last Thursday, so I don’t really think …
Congratulations!
I don’t really think that I’m ready to criticize other people yet.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Well, here’s a taxi driver, sir, you must do quite a lot of driving!
Yes, I do indeed.
How many miles do you reckon you cover a week?
About seven…eight hundred miles.
What are the British drivers lie? Are we good drivers or bad drivers?
In a nutshell about 85% of them out here have got the IQ of a carrot and…
What can you say? I’ve come out here everyday and everyday somebody teaches me something else that they can so with a motor car that I wouldn’t have said it was possible.
Marvelous! Thank you very much!
You’re welcome.
Safe travelling to you!
Thank you! Bye-bye!
Right. And the pump is running. A lady here is filling up her…what is this car, madam?
It’s a Nissan Micra.
Micra. Does it use a lot of petrol?
No, it’s very economical-that’s why I bought it.
And I see you’re using unleaded petrol. Is that an important thing for you?
Yeah, I wouldn’t have bought the car if it hadn’t been the fact that it’s unleaded that it can take unleaded petrol!
So the environment and the state of environment is something that is very important to you?
Yes, very important. I try to recycle everything. I buy recycled paper, all that sort of thing.
There are so many cars on the roads these days. What do you thin can be done to keep the number down?
Well, I think people should use bused. I mean, I feel very guilty about using my car. But I had to learn to drive because the bus service isn’t very good.
Tight, thank you for chatting to us.
You’re welcome.
Thanks.
Now, here’s a gentleman not with four wheels but two, a motorcyclist. This is quite a big motorbike. How powerful is it?
It’s a thousand c.c.
How fast can it go?
About 165 or 170.
What’ it lie, being a motorcyclist on British roads, is it, is it dangerous?
Well, I nearly got run over today actually. I’ve just driven through London and somebody nearly got me on a roundabout.
Thank you for talking to us. We’ll let you get on your way.
Right, thank you.
Now as we are speaking into the forecourt of the petrol station comes a tanker. A huge tanker which is here to deliver the fuel for the cars to fill up with a little later.
And so as the lorry stops, let’s go over and talk to the man who’s been delivering the petrol. Hello to you!
Hello!
Now, you’re driving a very large lorry indeed. How much does it all weigh?
38 tons.
And how much fuel do you carry?
36000 liters.
How many miles do you travel a year?
Well, I don’t now a year. I suppose a week six or seen hundred; I suppose a weeks, in an average week.
So what do you think of the standard of driving in this country?
Well, when I was, I mean, I’ve been to Greece and Spain, and I suppose it’s reasonable here, really, it’s…
We’re all right, are we?
I think so yeah, Yes.
Well, thank you very much for chatting to us.
Thank you! Than you very much!
And that’s I think where we’ll end our visit. So from this petrol station in south Sussex in England, it’s good-bye.

But my office is only on the 1st floor.

No, er… I guess not.
So, let’s go up to your room. It’s on the 2nd floor.
OK, thanks.
You really aren’t very fit, are you, Mr. Black?
What do you mean? My suitcase is a bit heavy. That’s all.
I don’t believe you!
Here you are Mr. Black! Dinner’s in half an hour-and you won’t smoke in your room, will you?
I’ll damn well smoke when and where I damn well like!
That’s better!
What the hell is that?
I told you not to smoke, didn’t I, Mr. Black! You know it’s bad for your health. Now put out that cigarette immediately!
My God! Everybody’s over 60! Oh, well, let’s see what’s for dinner.
Here you are, my friend!
No thanks; I won’t have the salad. I’ll wait for the main course.
This is the main course! Eat up, my friend! Good health and long life to you!
What’s that you’re drinking?
Carrot juice, my friend!
Carrot juice? What use is carrot juice when you feel like a real drink, like Scotch or Vodka?
Let me tell you, my friend, since I started drinking carrot juice I feel lie a young man again!
Oh, really?
And, my now girlfriend is only 28! So here’s to take juice! Cheers!
Cheers? Maybe there is something in it after all.
You’ve already run around the par 21 times today, Mr. Black. Haven’t you done enough yet? Dinner’s ready!
O, thanks. Hey are you doing anything after dinner?
No, nothing special, why?
How would you like to come over to my room for a glass of carrot juice?
Oh, Mr. Black!
How much longer is David going to be? He’s twenty minutes late already.
I expect he’ll be here soon!
I suppose he’ll be with that awful Mexican girl? I really don’t know why he goes out with her?
Her father is very rich, you know.
He made millions of dollars in the oil business, and now he’s the president of a large bank.
Oh, I see!
That will be them now.
Hello, Dad, sorry we’re late. You’ve met Juanita, haven’t you?
Yes, of course. Nice to see you, Juanita? How are you?
Very well, thank you, Mr. Peters.
Well, let’s go out now, I’ve booked a table for half past eight.
Where are we going?
We are going to ‘Da Renzo’, aren’t we, Dad?
That’s right, it’s a little Italian place I know, nothing special, but quite pleasant.
Perhaps you and Juanita would lie to sit in the back, and Annie can sit in the front.
I hope you aren’t going to eat a lot of spaghetti, David.
Oh, I quite like spaghetti, actually.
 I don’t want you to get any fatter; you’re quite fat enough already.
I don’t think David’s fit; he’s quite thin!
Well, I think he’s too fat!
Let’s talk about something else, shall we? Have you told David about your new job yet, Annie?
No, not yet, I’ve just started working for this French…

Dear Colleagues,
I’m a different man since I came to this place. When you see me again you won’t believe how much I’ve changed. It was damned hand at the start, I can tell you. No whisky, no poker, no cigarette and nothing but salads to eat. But I’m strong and I took if like a man. Soon I started to like running and drinking carrot juice; now I can run 15 miles without stopping! I feel like a new man already. The girls wont know what’s hit them when they meet the now martin Black! So how are you my dear friends? I can just see you all now; Sitting an your desks smoking too much, worrying to much, and going to the bar after work to drink too much, You’ll all die before you’re 40, and I’ll just go on and on, drinking my carrot juice and laughing at you.
Best wishes
Martin

Oh, no, please don’t ___that, Susan! Roger’s been in prison for almost 6 months now; don’t you forget about him?
He’s my husband, Harry, even if he’s in prison! How can I possibly forget about him?
Calm down, please. Everybody is looking at us!
What is it about Roger? What did he have that I haven’t got?
Anyway, he’ll be in prison for another eight years, so that’s that. I keep tilling you you’ll have to divorce him.
Come on, dear, eat up you ham. What’s it like?
It’s alright. Poor Roger!
I’ve said it already, but these prawns are really delicious.
The soup is disgusting!
What do you expect, mate! This isn’t the Ritz!
How do they expect us to eat this rubbish! It’s not good enough for a dog.
I know what you mean. Still-
Listen, let me tell you something. The warden gets $5 per day per prisoner for our food. And this is what he gives us to eat.
Do you mean-
Exactly. He keeps the change. He’s got to be a very rich man by now- thanks to us!
I never know that!
Pass it on. Do you know that the warden gets $5 per day …
We’re not eating this rubbish!
No, We’re not! No way!
Now’s my chance!
Hey you, where are you going!
Hey, what do you think you’re doing? Stop!
I’ll just get his keys. There’s the gate!
They’re after me already! Here’s the front gate.
The road’s only a few hundred yards away, I think I can make it!
Stop, please! Stop, damn you!
Thank God for that!
I’m going to Washdon, if that’s any use to you.
That’ll do fine!
Come on, let’s go, for God’s sake!
Have you come far? I always like to take a chap, you know.
I get a bit lonely, sort of, driving around all the time.
So I like to have someone to talk to. Oh, well, if you don’t want to talk, I’ll turn on the radio!
Here is an urgent message for anyone driving near Dartbridge.
A prisoner has escaped from Dartbridge prison.
He is 1 meter 88 tall, has blonde hair and is very dangerous.
It you see this man, do not talk to him or try to stop him, but call the police immediately.
Well,well, what do you know? A prisoner’s escaped.
Oh my God! It’s you!
Just drive,will you! Look out Hugo, and Susan and the rest of you! Here I come!
20.2 Mini
Dear Roger,
I know this is going to hurt you a lot, but I’ve through about it very carefully, and I’m sure I’m doing the right thing, I want a divorce. Roger, I’ve met another man. Perhaps he isn’t much of a Casanova, but he’s much kinder to me than you ever were. I don’t want to hurt you even more, so I won’t tell you who he is. Life in prison must be very hard; I hope you can see it as a chance to change, Roger, when you come out you’ll e free to start a new life, I hope you find another woman who’ll be true to you, like I’ve been. I won’t come and see you again. Roger, there’s no use in it, so this letter is my goodbye to you. You’ll hear form my lawyers, in a couple of weeks. Be strong, and try to understand.
Susan.
 
20.3 Interview
I’m now on the football pitch where a seven s sick game has just finished. Dave Rtarding has been playing football. “David, what do you like about the game?” “The main aspects owe for us to come up here, enjoy ourselves and we can meet up afterward and have a drink, that sort of thing.” “what about winning of losing? Does it matter which?” “No, that isn’t the main reason we play. I mean it’s always lovely to win, but the main reason we come here is as I said just to enjoy ourselves. It’s not the end of the world if you lose.” “And how often do you play a week?” “We only play once a week. We play on Thursdays.” “What about keep fit? Is football a good way of keeping your body in trim?” “I must be. I’ve noticed if I miss one week for whatever reason, the following week I ache the next day. If I played every week I don’t ache, so it must help to keep you fit.” “Do you thick you’re getting better, as you play more?” “I’m probably not getting any better, because I’m getting older.” And now old are you then?” “I’m 29, going on 30.” “Still any ambitious to play for England, perhaps.” “I’m surprised to have been picked actually, but now I don’t have any aspirations to play for England. I think I am a bit old now.”
And welcome to a small hall where fencing is being taught. And I’m talking to Porling fairly. “Porling is it as dangerous as it looks?” No, I mean you might get a couple of bruises, but nothing bad.” “No, if you don’t mind me saying so, you don’t have to run around a lot while fencing. So do you keep fit while doing this particular sport?” “Yes, you do a lot, You don’t more very far, but you do more about a lot.” ”Fencing has been called” “The brain sport” where you have to think very much what you are doing. Do you see fi like that?” “You do have to think about it. To work out which more you want to do. Because if you just go in there, attacking all the time, it’s no good. You have to think about what you are doing.” “How long have you been fencing?” “Two and a half years.” “And have you seen yourself improved as the time has gone on?” “Yes, definitely.” “Would you like to take fencing for ever, perhaps take part in more competitions.” “Yes, I mean. I go to competitions now and they are really good. So I like to do a lot of them.”
Badminton is the name of the game and I’ve come into the man hall where the game is being played by a lots of people, and two of these people are Lorry and Maria, “Lorry, how long have you been playing?” “It’s since I was 21, I’m now 62.” “So how often do you play badminton?” “I play twice a week.” “Is badminton a sport for people of all ages?” “Definitely, positively.” “Maria, how did you first get interested in badminton?” “I got interested when I was about 28 years of age, and I’ve been playing for over 20 years now.” “Is badminton an easy game to learn?” “Well, if you played with a racket before, like if you’re a tennis play, then it’s easy to learn. But I think if you start from a young age. Yes, yes.”
“You look very energetic, do you have to be very fit?” “Well, it depends on the standard of the game. I mean it depends on whom you’re playing with. If you play with some good players, you do have to keep fit. And you have to be very quick.” “Do you play to keep fit or to have a bit of fun?” “No, just for relaxation, recreation and enjoyment, I get a great deal of pleasure out of playing badminton.” “So the keeping fit goes with playing the game. Doesn’t it just part of it.” “Yes, I perhaps somewhat fortunate that I’m reasonably fit, and always have been.

1. -What a fantastic meal! That really is a great restaurant. 
2. -Yes, they say it’s the best Chinese restaurant in Washdon.
3. -Well, what shall we do, now? I feel like going somewhere: just the two of us.
4. -Yes, that’s a nice idea. We can go to my place if you like.
5. -No thanks, Marco. I don’t feel like meeting Mary again, actually.
6. -Look, I am not going out with Mary! I’ve told you before, Kristi. It’s true!
7. -It’s all right, Macro. I believe you. But I’m expecting a message from someone in Germany back at the hotel.
8. -So we’ll have to go back there, if that’s OK by you.
9. -Oh, alright. But what about that awful American woman?
10. -Oh, the American couple have gone; they went last week.
11. -Let’s get a bus there, shall we? The No.62stops right outside the hotel.
12. -Well, here we are!
13. -I hope the old man doesn’t hear me this time.
14. -You’ll just have to be very, very quiet, that’s all. See you outside the room! I’ll go and get the key, Ready?
15. -Oh, hell!
16. -What is it?
17. -He isn’t asleep! I’ve never seen him awake before. I wonder what’s happened!
18. What are we going to do?
19. -Let me see… I know; I’ll go in and ask him for some information about something or other.
20. -Then, when he’s looking away, you come in and go around to my room-very quietly, OK?
21. But what if he sees me?
22. -Look, if you don’t feel like it, Macro, you can always go back to your hostel.
23. -It’s all right. I’m ready, Kristi.
24. -Let’s go then.
25. -Dangerous criminal escapes from Dartbridge Prison. Police believe that the man is now in Washdon.
26. -He is tall with blue eyes and probably wearing a red T-shirt and blue jeans.
27. -Al! Oh! Er…help! Er…Oh, it’s you, Miss er-Sc-er-Scm-er-
28. -Why, Who did you think it was?
29. -This man who’s escaped from prison! It’s terrible! Haven’t you read the papers?
30. -No, I get quite enough news at work, thanks. Look, I wonder if you can help me.
31. -I want to go to Oxbridge tomorrow. Can you tell me what time the trains are, and which station I have to go from?
32. -Oh, I see. Oxbridge, er? I've been there.
33. I went there when I was a boy.
34. My father took me there, way back in nineteen thirty-
35. -Yes that’s very interesting. Have you got a railroad schedule, so that we can look up the train times?
36. -A railroad schedule?
37. To look up the train times, eh? That’s a good idea. Let me have a look…
38. Thank you. Come on, please!
39. -What did you say?
40. -Oh, nothing. I’m just in a bit of a hurry that’s all.
41. -Very well, very well. Here’s your schedule, Miss er-Sc-er Scm-er-
42. -This schedule is out of date. Look, it says “summer 1962”!
43. -Oh, dear, what a shame! I’m afraid that that’s the newest one we’ve got. All the others are even older-
44. -What was that?
45. -It’s that man who’s just escaped from prison! I’m sure he’s here!
46. He’s going to steal all our money, and kill us! I must call the police.
47. -Take it easy! Calm down! I didn’t hear anything at all.
48. I think there must be something wrong with your hearing, why don’t you go and see a doctor.
49. Well, I’ll have my key, now, please. Room 38.
50. -Good night!
51. -I’m going to call the police anyway.
52. -Phew! Here we are, then.
53. -What did the old man say?
54. -Oh, he’s read something in the papers, you see, about some crazy guy who’s escaped from prison.
55. So he thinks you've come here to steal the gusts’ money and kill them in their beds, and he’s called the police!
56. -What! I have to go immediately!
57. -Take it easy, Macro. I’m only joking!
58. How nervous you are! You aren’t very used to this sort of thing, are you? You need a drink, and so do I.
59. -Cheers.
60. -Have a seat; do you want to try my new bed?
61. -This bed is very hard! Did it come from a prison or something?
62. -I like hard bed, actually. Here, you can sit on this pillow if you like. It’s very soft.
63. -Thanks, Kristi. It’s alright. I’ll sit on the floor.
64. -I really like you a lot, you know Kristi. You are the nicest girl I 'ver ever been out with.
65. -Oh, you don't mean that!
66. Yes, I do.
67. What was that?
68. Don’t worry about it. It’ll go away.
69. Kristi!
70. My God, its Roger!

Mini-dialogue
Good morning. Here is the nine o'clock news.
There has been an escape from Darbridge high-security prison. The prison Warden said that the escape happened after dinner yesterday evening.
One of the prisoners complained about the food and then attacked a prison guard. He then took the guard's keys and used them to open the prison gates.
A main road passes a few hundred yards from the prison and police believe that the escaped prisoner then stopped a car and traveled to Washdon. The man’s name is Roger Temple. He is very dangerous, and quite possibly has a gun.
He is about 1meter and 92 tall with blond hair and blue eyes, and speaks with a Canadian accent. The police say that he is wearing a red T-shirt and blue jeans.
Now here is the rest of the news.
An Italian student was arrested yesterday evening when he left a Washdon hotel wearing a coat belonging to one of the guests.

 
21.2 A
1. -Kristi.
2. My God. It’s Roger.
3. Who is he?
4. I thought you were in prison.
5. That’s right, I was in prison. Listen, Kristi, you’ve got to help me.
6. Well, see you soon, Kristi-
7. Where’d you think you’re going? You just stay here!
8. Hey, I need some clothes. You’re not the same size as me, but I’ll take your suit anyway.
9. What?
10. Come on, take it off, and the pants too. Hurry up, I’ve got no time.
11. OK. And I need a towel and some soap. I must have a wash.
12. You can go to the bathroom.
13. Have you got a razor, Kristi? I need a shave, too.
14. You’ll find it in the bathroom.
15. OK, give me the suit, come on! You two just stay here, OK? And don’t touch that phone.
16. I’m going to the bathroom.
17. Is that man a friend of yours?
18. Not exactly. Listen, Marco, he’s very violent, and he’s probably got a gun, too.
19. So we’ll have t attack him at the same time. When he comes out of the bathroom, you-
20. That’s better! This suit is a bit too small for me, but I think I’ll keep it.
21. You’re welcome.
22. OK. Now I’ll tell you what you are going to do. The police don’t know I’m here yet, so that gives me-
23. What’s that? Did you call the police you bitch?
24. No, I didn’t. Roger!
25. Or was you, you little bastard?
26. No, really!
27. I’ll pay you back for this some day!
28. Stand back! We’re coming in.
29. Here he is! Get him!
30. Aaah!!!!
31. We’re only just in time. He’s taken half his clothes already! You think you can come into a lady’s bedroom and-
32. Look, there must be some mistake.
33. What?
34. He’s a friend of mine. I just invited him round for a drink.
35. Oh, I see. Does he always take off his pants before he has a drink?
36.  Shut up, bedges. I’m very sorry, madam. We received a telephone call from the receptionist., saying that a dangerous criminal- You’re probably come to the wrong room. Why don’t you try next door? Very well. Sorry about that, Madam.Good evening. Good evening, sir. I hope you find your pants. That’s enough. Come on! Are you all right, macro? It hasn’t been a very romantic evening, has it? Why didn’t you tell them about roger? I’d just like to see what he does next. I wonder if he’ll go and see Susan… Who’s Susan? Oh, never mind. This is all very interesting… Excuse me! I’d like my money, pls. What money? My welfare money. Where’s your PQ961x? My what? Your PQ961x form! Oh, do you mean this? Can I have my money now, pls? You’ll have to go to the payment office, get a P50, and come back here. But I’ve just gone to the payment office and they told me to come here. Pls., this is the third time I’ve been here today! I can’t help that! Look, I’ve only just lost my job, and I’m looking hard for another one, I really am! Pls. give me my money. On, all right! Sign your name here.  Here’s your check. Oh, can’t you give me cash? I haven’t got a bank account any more you see.

Where’s the nearest post office, pls?
37. There’s one over the road.
38. Next pls.
39. Can you cash this check pls?
40. Have you got any identification?
41. What?
42. I mean, how do I know the check is yours? It could be your check, or it could be someone else’s check.
43. I mean, how do I know whose it is?
44. But they've just given it to me at the welfare office.
45. That’s what you say. It could be the truth or it could be a lie. How do I know?
46. I’ve had enough of this. I’m a very busy man. I work damned hard every day, just to keep this country going.
47. So people like you can just stand around talking!
48. Unemployed, indeed!
49. I’m sorry; sir, but I’ve spent all my money. If I can’t cash this check I won’t have anything to eat tonight!
50. Look, I’ve got a driver’s license. Will that do as identification?
51. Of course it will, really, some people are so stupid! Here’s your money!
52. Thanks.
53. I expect you’ll go and spend it on drugs.
54. Gee, every body hates me! I’m going home.
55. Gosh, it’s so darned cold in here! I had to turn off the heating last month, because I can’t afford it any more.
56. And last week I even had to give up the phone; I can afford that anymore neither!
57. So now nobody can call me, even to say hello! There’s nothing left here except the TV! Take a man like me. I travel around the world. I stay in the best  
hotels. I eat in the most expensive restaurants.
58. I go out with the most beautiful woman. Now that’s a special kind of credit card for a man like me-AMERICAN EXCESS/
59. It’s all right for some!
60. My name is Daniel Q.Biedermaier. Listen to me; this could be the most important moment in your life.
61. Do you have what you want?
62. No, I haven’t.
63. Are you a winner, or a loser?
64. I’m a loser!
65. I could change your life for you. How? The same way as I changed mine. Let me tell you my story…
66. Ten years ago I was nobody: a gas station attendant taking home 300 dollars a week.
67. And today I’m the president of one of American’s biggest companies.
68. I have beautiful homes in N.Y, Paris, London and Rome.
69. I have a Ferrari, a Mercedes and a Rolls-Royce,

2.Today I’ve come shopping in Next fashion store in the high street and with me is Juli Right, the assistant store manager. Juli, tell me a bit about Next, what sort of customers do you get here?
3.Well, we get a variety of customers both male and female and we also have a children’s ware department as well. The age is roughly, I would say, from about 18 to 35.
4. Now, we are here in the women’s department, do women spend more money on their clothes? I think so, yes. I think that men won’t come out shopping unless they have to, unless they have to buy suits for their wedding, their meeting, whatever.
5. So, do you think women have more sense of style generally. I think in this country, yes, definitely.
6. Well, will you help me. I need a small dress for work. Can you suggest something ? Yes, certainly. What about something like this, a navy shift dress. It suits all figures, all sizes, just the plain simple, navy dress, short sleeve, zipper in back.
7. What size? 14. 14, we should have, yes, that’s actually one of our most popular sizes. Yes , here we are. Here is the size14. Would you like to try this on?
8. I’d love to. Let’s see if it suits me. So what do you think and your honest opinion? Well, I think it’s very smart. I like it very much. I’ll take it!
9. Well, I’m a satisfied customer. And here browsing on the aisle, there is another customer. Excuse me, can I ask you what you’re looking for? Yes I’m looking for something for wedding. So do you have a set thing in mind? Not exactly, but something simple and plain, maybe nave blue.
10. In another part of the shop amongst the casual wear, I found another customer. Excuse me, can you tell me what you are looking for?
11. I’m looking for something casual to take on holiday with me, to wear on the beach maybe. What sort of colors do you look for? I like to wear a lot of black and dark colors, maybe yellow and a bit of red.
12. Are you shopping on your own or have you brought someone with you? I usually shop on my own. If I bring someone with me, it takes too long.
13. Shopping in this part of Next fashion store is a young couple. Excuse me, can I ask you? Do you know what you are looking for today? No, I just come in on the off chance that I’ll find something I like. And hopefully something to go on holiday with.
14. Now you have you husband with you. Is he important when you come to make decisions? Only when he’s got his checkbook with him.
15. Do you think you do know what is suitable for you. I would hope so. I think I’ve made some mistakes but I would hope generally that I know what suits me and what doesn’t. Yes.
16. Do you think that English women generally have a sense of style? It’s
something that your view always changes, you go abroad, you see the ladies in Italy and France.
17. Do you agree with that? Yes I think I do, especially in America. The women in America can look very stunning. French women especially look very, very nice. Paris in the place to go for some really beautiful shape women.
18. How about English man? Usually when they are in suits and they’re going to work, fine, but I honestly don’t think they’ve got much idea when comes to casual wear. So what would you choose to wear?
19. Well, at the moment. I’m looking for either a yellow or green shirt, but I do need a pair of black trousers. When I’m just going to upstairs and if I could find a pair that are not too expensive.
20. I’m now up in men’s department with another customer. Excuse me, can you tell me what you are looking for?
21. I’m looking for a suit or jacket for a party I’m going to at a hotel. Do you have an idea what suits you? No, I don’t. No, so I have to ask one of the assistants if they’ll tell me. One of the female assistants.

Dear Tony,
(May I call you Tony?) I’ve been a fan of yours ever since I was only 15. I 've bought all your CDs, and I think you’re absolutely fantastic.
I thought “a man alone” wad amazing, and “you’re Gonna Be Someone” is even better. What a pity I haven’t got a CD player any more!
This is the reason I’m writing to you: I’ve just found this amazing new group. I can’t quite remember their name, I’m afraid, but I know they really like your records.
I wonder if you could help me (I’m their manager, by the way) by getting us a recording contrast with your company?
Please let me know as soon as the contract is ready. You can’t ring me, I’m afraid, because I haven’t got a phone any more, but you can always write to me. I can’t wait to heat from you.
Yours sincerely
John Berry

1. It’s a really reasonable restaurant. Would you say it please, Aiko?
2. Er…Could you repeat it, please?
3. It’s a really reasonable restaurant.
4. It’s a-leary-really-leally-
5. No, Aiko! Can’t you pronounce the letter “r”yet? Would you say it please, Macro?
6. It’s a really reasonable restaurant.
7. Now you try again, please Aiko.
8. It’s a leary-oh; it’s no good! I can’t pronounce that word!
9. English is an awfully difficult language for us Japanese! Oh, I speak it so badly!
10. It’s not true, Aki. You speak English very well.
11. You make very few mistakes in Grammer when you speak.
12. Your English is almost as good as mine.
13. Why are you being so horrible to her, David?
14. He isn’t being horrible. My David is just doing his job!
15. Your David? Well, well.
16. Don’t interrupt while I’m speaking, please. It’s ridiculous that Aiko still can’t pronounce “really”. David taught it in yesterday’s lesson and she’s forgotten it already.
17. Obviously she didn’t listen to him.
18. I did listen, Juanita, it’s just that I find English pronunciation terribly difficult!
19. Hey, I’m sorry, Aiko, OK? Let’s talk about something else.
20. I want to tell them our wonderful news. David and I are engaged. We’re going to get married.
21. Oh, that’s lovely!
22. Yes, congratulations!
23. Good for you, David! The first wife is always the most important one.
24. Look, we must do something to celebrate this! Why don’t we all go for a picnic in Buckington Park?
25. Great idea! It’s on the river Huds, we can go there by boat.
26. But what if it rains?
27. If it rains, Fritz, we’ll get wet!
28. That’s it, then, we’ll go for a nice trip on the river. We can go there tomorrow, instead of the lesson, OK?
29. And I’ll invite Mary!
30. Yes, why not?
31. We have just passed under Brookless bridge,
32. Where George Washington opened the country’s first freeway in 1894.
33. And on the left we can see the White House.
34. Which is where the president goes for his summer vacation.
35. If you look at your right you’ll notice the united nations building, which-
36. So David’s engaged to Juanita, is he?
37. That’s right.
38. I don’t thing he really wants to marry her, Aiko, I think she’s making him do it.
39. Don’t you think he is in love with her?
40. No, I think David’s got his eye on me, actually.
41. Are you sure?
42. Don’t you remember: he drove me home in his car after that party?
43. But he drove Marco and fritz home, too!
44. Ah, but he let me sit in the front seat. Leave it to me, Aiko…
45. Well, here we are at buckington. I do hope you had a pleasant trip, Ladies and Gentlemen;
46. If you have found my words helpful and interesting
47. Please feel free to leave me a few cents or dollars. Thank you.
48. Here we are everybody. Let’s get off the boat.
49. Gee, thank you kindly, sir! Thank you so much!
50. How much did you tip him, Hassan?
51. I gave him a $100 bill.
52. Really, Hassan, that’s ridiculous! You can’t give someone a $100 tip!
53. I’m sorry, my teacher. For me, money is rubbish, and what do you do with rubbish?  You throw it away.
54. If you’ve got any more of that sort of rubbish,Hassan, you can always throw it at me,
55. Not at you, Marco, you are my friend.
56. That’s really beautiful, I’M SO GLAD. ARE WE GOING TO STAND AROUND HERE ALL DAY? COME ON!
57. Hello, Mary; I’m sorry I couldn’t come to the party; I had to study that evening.
58. With your lady friend, I expect. You’re not my favorite person at the moment, Marco.
59. Ah well, that’s the way it goes!
60. Oh, look at Fritz! He’s got a raincoat and an umbrella!
61. I just want to keep dry, that’s all. I hate getting wet. I don’t see what’s so funny about that!
62. Just that the temperature is 33, and the sky is clear and blue!
63. You can’t be too careful!
64. Well, here’s the park entrance. It costs $5 to get in; students pay half price.
65. I hope you’ve all got your students cards with you.
66. Yes, I think so. It’s in somewhere, etc.
67. Oh, what a lovely place!
68. Hey Aiko, let’s run to the top of that hill!
69. What are you doing? Haven’t you seen the notice:”keep off the grass”?
70. You won’t tell the police, will you, Fritz?
71. This is terrible! In Germany people never walk on the grass!
72. Hey, David, that bag looks heavy. Why don’t I give you a hand with it?
73. It’s quite alright; the bag is very light.
74. Oh, er…Mary, this is my fiancée, Juanita. Juanita, this is Mary.
75. I’ve already met Mary.
76. Oh, yes, so you have. Of course.
77. I would like to be alone with my fiancée, please, Mary
78. Sorry, I’m sure.
79. Let’s stop for lunch over there, OK?
80. OK, I’m very hungry and hot.
81. How about here?
82. Here are the sandwiches.
83. I hope they’re made with brown bread. White bread is very bad for you.
84. That was lovely. I think I’ll go for a swim in the lake. Does anyone else feel like a swim?
85. Haven’t you seen the notice? Look “ No swimming in the lake”.
86. You must tell me all about it, Fritz-after I’ve had my swim.
87. Come along, David; let’s go for a walk.
88. That’s a good idea.
89. Just me and David!
90. If you say so…

22.2 Mini dialogue
Dear Marie,
I’m sitting in the middle of Buckington Park at the moment; on a seat of course, not on the grass. I’ve come here with the other students from the English class for a picnic; it’s a beautiful day, and the sun is shining!
We have just had lunch; I asked the teacher for sandwiches made with brown bread, but he only had white bread sandwiches. Of course, I told him how bad white bread is for your health, but he just laughed.
Perhaps he was thinking about love; he’s just got engaged to one of the students, a Mexican girl. She’s a very pleasant, reasonable girl, and I’m sure they’ll be happy together.
I spoke to the Director of the school yesterday; by the way, to ask him how much longer I needed to stay at his school.
He told me that I needed another couple of years to speak English really well, and that I could take extra private lessons of I wanted to, at $50 an hour. It’s a bit expensive really; I’m not sure what to do.
Anyway, I’ll be home at the end of next month for  summer vacation; I’ll see you then.
Your loving husband, Fritz

 
22.3

Hello, this is Clare Martin, and today I’m looking at the language learning. It has been said the British are bad at learning languages, but can this be true? We teach languages to most of our children and every evening school offers classes to adults. What sorts of people study, Why do they study? And what are the problems? To find out more, I went down to the adult education center in Briton. There I spoke to Eve. Eve is from Paris, but he now teaches in England.

C: What sorts of people come to learn languages on these courses?
E: All sorts of people. They youngest are schoolchildren who are doing a level, and my oldest student is 73, and is about to start university and graduate.
C: Why do they come to learn?
E: Very very many reasons, the challenge, because they are board, they want to go on holiday, because they need to use the language, because they want to learn how to teach. Some of then are actual teachers themselves, they come to see how I did it. It’s rather terrible for me, but we’re…
C: What are the most popular languages that people come to learn?
E: In this order, French, German, Spanish, Russian, Japanese.
C: That is quite a range of languages for a small town. And all the classes seem popular, I spoke to Magerete, a student in Eve’s class. I try to find out a bit more. Have you been here for long?
M: 4 years. I didn’t take French at school, but I decided 4 years ago start it.
C: Why did you choose French, I am attracted to the language, the sound of the language, and I am attracted to the literature of France, if possible, I would like to get enough understand of, really understand the literature of France.
C: Just next door, a very full Spanish class was in progress. I spoke to one of the students, kathleen, why did you decide to learn Spanish?
K: Because I’ll stay for 6 months in Spain.
C: Did you learn any languages at school?
K: Yes, French, only French. Were you any good at it in those days?
K: I didn’t learn very hard at school. I don’t think. But I enjoy it, it’s fantastic.
C: Well, the enthusiasm.
K: What are the problems? Do Magarete and Kathleen find it easy to learn?
K: No. Not particularly. I’m trying to hear everything on the radio, French, French news in the morning, every morning, gradually one may gets an ear perhaps for the language.
C: What about the pronunciation?
K: Tricky, tricky.
M: I’m probably the oldest person in this class, well, I’m the oldest person in this class and I think it’s more difficult to learn as I should get older but I’m very interested in learning Spanish. I do work heard at it.
C: Is Spanish very difficult to learn?
K: The grammar is very difficult, the pronunciation is reasonable easy.
C: What about writing it, have you had a go at writing it?
K: I think writing much more easy, much easier than speaking. I’d agree with that. Speaking is certainly difficult than writing, that is the last time to think. But Margarete has been studying for four years and Kathleen has a home in Spain. So do they still make a lot of mistakes?
M: Oh, yes. I think I still do. Oh, of course.
C: That’s honest, but do mistakes really matter?
K: Languages seems to me all about the levels. You know you thought you got one practice you think you are good and harvest, you got the next mountain in front of you.
C: I don’t think that matters at all, because I think that’s the way really, the only way that you are going to learn.
M: I think it makes she reluctant to speak because she’ll worry about making mistakes. That’s natural the same for foreigners learning your English. Oh, yes, foreigners learning English they must be simpesetic to the problem we face learning their languages.
C: What about the French people? Have you tried out your French on them yet.
K: I got to Paris every year. I go alone in order that I would speak the language.
C: How do they react?
K: All right. Yes, they are all always in a hurry in Paris. Of course, but they are pretty good, easy to ask the question, hard to understand the questions. Well, the Spanish speek very quickly, but on one occasion a Spanish said it just as difficulty for them to understand  us just as for us to understand them, because to them, we speak very quickly. In fact I think the English speak very much slow than the Spanish do.
C: Do you find them helpful when you are there trying to learn it?
K: Well, unfortunately, one doesn’t actually mix with the a lot of Spanish people. This is the difficulty, I think. Where I live there are far more British people than Spanish people. I don’t have any Spanish papers. So in consequence, I don’t actually mix with Spanish people very much as I love to.
C: Now wait a minute. Is kathleen saying the British people in her part of Spain only talk to each other. So what’s that Spanish like? We back to that question again. What are the Brirish like at learning languages.
M: I think we are impossible at learning languages. Where I live I am surrounded by, oh, possibly 100 British people, I only know 3, 2 British ladies, who are actually learning Spanish at school. 3 including myself, I think it’s apalling.
C: Why do you think that is?
M: I think we are very very lazy about learning languages. Because so many people speak English. I think that we are really island isolated people. There is no basic feeling that languages of other country is important. We don’t need it. We are doing well without it.
C: They are learning English, why should we bother with other language. They are learning English, so why should we bother. Perhaps Magerete and Kathleen are not typical. What does Eve the French teacher think? Are we really that bad at learning languages.
E: no. Not in my class.
C: But generally we are known for not wanting to learn.
E: I think there is certain amount of shyness in English people, that’s not badness. There is nothing at all. I think simply shyness. Natural reserve.
C: So do you think we’re slowly getting better at it, then?
E: I believe so. I think people more and more are going abroad, they buying house abroad, they’re retiring abroad, they have to learn the language, which is a good thing.
C: But is Eve taking a optimistic view? Are we still an Island people, difficult questions, but at least some British are discussing them or some of them are. Well, that’s it for now, and for me, Clare Martin. Goodbye.

1. -This is so romantic, don’t you think, David?
2. -Oh, yes, incredibly!
3. -Do you know what I feel like right now, David?
4. -No, what do you feel like, Juanita?
5. -I feel like a Coca-Cola.
6. -Oh! Well, we can get one on the way back.
7. -That’s no good; I want one now. Get it for me, will you please, darling?
8. -But there aren’t any stores anywhere near here! We’re in the middle of the darned park!
9. -Oh, stop making problems, David! If you really love your little Juanita, surely you can get her a Coca-Cola?
10. -Oh, alright! I’ll do my best!
11. -Don’t be long now!
12. Hello, David! So you’re on your own? Are things not going too well with Juanita?
13. No, I’ve just been to get her a coke. That’s all.
14. Well, that gives us a few moments togetheranyway, doesn’t it?
15. What do you mean?
16. I know how you feel about me, David. You can tell me the truth.
17. Sorry, I think there must be some mistake.
18. It’s all tight, David. Everybody makes mistakes. I understand, really I do!
19. Look, Mary, Juanita will hear us!
20. Let’s talk about it some other time, OK?
21. Alright, but let’s make it soon!
22. Hello, darling! You took a long time.
23. I had to walk about 5 miles to get you this darned coke.
24. Oh, don’t be like that! By the way, did I hear you talking to a girl?
25. Oh, that was just Mary!
26. Hmm, what did she want? If you touch another girl, David, I’ll-
27. I don’t want any except you, dear, you know that! I can’t help it if other girl like me, can I?
28. Yes, my fiancé’s very handsome, isn’t he?
29. I know, daring: when we’re married I’ll put you in a cage, and I’ll have the only key!
30. Gee, that’s a great idea!
31. Hey, look at the sky. I think it’s going to rain in a minute.
32. So let’s go back to Washdon, then. We’re meeting my parents this evening, remember?
33. Have you seen the paper, Carter? This is very interesting. Roger Temple’s on the run.
34. Don’t worry sir. I’ll catch him. Just leave it to me.
35. Oh, I don’t want you to catch him, Carter.
36. I see: so you want him to have an accident, do you?
37. Don’t be a fool, Carter! I want you to keep an eye on him.
38. See what he does, who he goes to visit.
39. Don’t you see: we have a chance to get Huge Peters-and maybe even “the boss”.
40. This is the biggest opportunity you’ve ever had, Carter. Do your best.
41. And keep in touch with me all the time!
42. Yes, sir!
43. So temple’s around Washdon, is he?
44. I wonder where he’s gone? I think I’ll go home and see what Susan thinks…
45. Come in, darling, I’ve just had to put our dinner in the oven, dear, and –oh my God, no!
46. It’s Roger! I don’t believe it!
47. I can come in, can’t I?
48. Have they let you out of prison already? You’ve escaped, haven’t you?
49. So here I am back in our old apartment. You’ve changed quite a few things around.
50. There are some new chairs and those pictures on the wall are new!
51. The police are after you, aren’t they?
52. Look at this pipe! I didn’t know you smoked a pipe, Susan?
53. What’s going on? Will you tell me the truth? I’ll call the police!
54. Don’t you dare!
55. You haven’t eaten yet, have you? I’m really hungry.
56. Oh, and I could do with a brandy. The last time I drank brandy was 8 months ago.
57. Cheers, Susan!
58. You can’t stay here, you know.
59. Why not? I’m still your husband, aren’t I?
60. Didn’t you get my letter?
61. What letter?
62. I mailed it last Friday. I explained to you that I-I-
63. You explained that?
64. I’ve fallen in love with anther man, Roger, and I want to divorce you.
65. So do you want to do then? Are we going to call a lawyer?
66. Half the cops in the country are looking for me and you talk about divorce!
67. Let’s have something to eat and talk reasonably.
68. Oh, I see there are two plates on the table, and two knives and forks.
69. Is someone coming to dinner?
70. I’ve told you, Roger, I’ve got another man. He’ll be here any moment now.
71. Than you’ll have to call him, and tell him: “Not tonight, darling.”
72. He lives here, Roger.
73. I don’t care! I don’t care if he was damn well born here! Keep him out, or he’ll get this knife in him!
74. Roger, it’s no use. He’s a policeman; he’ll probably have a gun on him! Please go away, before something terrible happens!
75. He’ll be here any moment now.
76. Alright, I’ll go! But I won’t forget this, Susan! You’ll hear from me again!
77. You cold-hearted bitch!

Mini dialogue
Dear Hugo,
As you probably know by now, I came to look for you in your old apartment this afternoon, and found that you didn’t live there any more.
If you think it’s as easy as that toget away from me, I can tell you that you’re very, very wrong. I’ve spent almost a year in prison already, thanks to you, while you’ve been outside, living your life as usual.
I don’t expect you’ve thought about me very often, Hugo, but I’ve often thought about you, about paying you back for what you did to me.
The information I’ve got about you and Moran, and Mr.P is going to be very expensive if you want me to keep quiet about it.
It’s a pity; I’d almost prefer to see you in prison, but not if I’m going to have t go back there too.
For obvious reasons I’m not going to give you my address; I’ll be in touch with you very soon by phone. I hope you don’t sleep a minute till then.
Yours
Roger

 
23.2.A
1. -Evening, dear! What do you think has happened? Roger Temple has…
2. What’s the matter, Susan? Are you feeling alright?
3. I’m sorry, but if you’re going to look at me like that everytime I say Rogers name, then.
4. Harry, I’ve just seen Roger. He’s just been here.
5. What? How long was he here for?
6. A very short time- five minutes, maybe.
7. Harry, he took a knife! He’s become so violent; it was horrible!
8. There, there dear, it’s alright! Listen, how long ago did he leave?
9. A couple of minutes ago, that’s all.
10. I must go after him.
11. Oh, Harry, please don’t leave me-not after what’s happened!
12. I’m sorry dear, but I’ve got to. This is the most important moment in my police career.
13. Just lock the door, and if anyone knocks don’t let them in.
14. Then how will you get back in?
15. I’ll knock once, and then twice, and then three times, like this.
16. Then I’ll say “chicken soup”.
17. Chicken soup?
18. That’s what we’ve having for dinner, isn’t it? I saw you looking in the cookbook this morning. Bye-bye, dear.
19. Please be careful, Harry!
20. I will.
21. Thacker here.
22. Carter here sir, reporting.
23. Yes, Carter?
24. Temple has just left his wife’s apartment.
25. Excellent! So where is he now?
26. I don’t know sir.
27. You mean you’ve lost him?
28. Well, no, I haven’t exactly found him yet, sir.
29. Look, I have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about, Carter.
30. When you have something to tell me, get in touch. Till then, don’t bother me.
31. So far, so good! No one’s seen me yet!
32. Hugo’s going t be really surprised when he sees me. Here we are: third floor.
33. No one’s coming out of any of the apartments. OK, apartment3A-
34. Got you, you bastard!
35. Oh, my god! I’m out of here!
36. Help! Help!
37. Are you alright, Mrs. Hancock?
38. Yes, I think so.
39. What on earth happened?
40. Someone just rang my doorbell.
41. When I opened the door there was this awful looking man,
42. With very short hair, and a horrible angry look on his face!
43. And then what happened?
44. I shouted, and he ran down the stairs.
45. Let me have a look out of the window.
46. My god! It looks like –it can’t be-Roger Temple!
47. You don’t know him, do you?
48. No no, of course not. He just looks like someone I once knew, that’s all.
49. Now, don’t worry about a thing, Mrs. Hancock. I’ll call the police, and look after all that.
50. Why don’t you just take it easy? Have a glass of hot milk, and get a good night sleep.
51. But will the police want to talk to me?
52. I’ll tell them you’re very tired. You’ve had a very unpleasant surprise. Goodnight, Mrs.Hancock!
53. Thank you so much, Mr.Peters. You’re awfully kind!
54. That’s quite all right.
55. We’re going to have to move fast?
56. Hello? Peter Moran speaking.
57. Thank god you’re there, Peter! Do you know what’s just happened? I’ve seen Roger Temple! He came here looking for me!
58. I know.
59. What do you mean: you know?
60. Temple escaped from prison yesterday; obviously you were one of the people he wanted to see.
61. Why didn’t you tell me?
62. It was in the papers, Hugo! Didn’t you see it? Anyway, you never know who else is listening to your phone.
63. Well, he didn’t see me, anyway. I’m glad t say he went to my old apartment.
64. What the hell is that?
65. I expect it’s Harry Carter. He’s 20 minutes too late, as usually.
66. Nothing to worry about there. What are we going to do about temple?
67. What do you mean? What are we going to do? Temple is your problem, Hugo.

16. I’m going to the bathroom.
17. Is that man a friend of yours?

19. So we’ll have t attack him at the same time. When he comes out of the bathroom, you-

4. -No, what do you feel like, Juanita?
5. -I feel like a Coca-Cola.
6. -Oh! Well, we can get one on the way back.
7. -That’s no good; I want one now. Get it for me, will you please, darling?
8. -But there aren’t any stores anywhere near here! We’re in the middle of the darned park!
9. -Oh, stop making problems, David! If you really love your little Juanita, surely you can get her a Coca-Cola?
10. -Oh, alright! I’ll do my best!
