5.

W: You’ve traveled around the world, haven’t you?

M: Yes. But my favorite place is Bali. I had an unforgettable time there. The scenery was beautiful, the beaches were great, and the people were friendly.

W: Sounds like paradise. 

6-7

W: Were you always interested in starting a food business?

M: Actually, I was interested in sales at first because that’s what both my parents do. But I used to work part-time in a café when I was a kid, and that’s what got me interested.

W: What was the first place you opened?

M: I rented a cheap place near the university, and I started selling lunches to the students. The place was always crowded at lunchtimes. So, one day I sold it. With that money, I opened a much bigger place downtown. 

8-10

W: May I come in, David?

M: Ok, Mum. What’s up?

W: Well, I know you love music, but you’ve turned up the radio too loud. I’m sorry to have to say this, but I can’t stand such loud noise.

M: I’m sorry, Mum. I didn’t know I was troubling you.

W: You see, it’s quite difficult to fall asleep with such loud music every night. It leaves me tired out during the day.

M: Well, I’ll turn it down right now.

W: Thanks. I do hate to complain, but it has really made me tired these days.

M: I’m really sorry. I won’t do that again.

W: Ok. Now you should go to bed, too. 

11-13

M: Can I help you?

W: Yes, I’m looking for a mobile phone.

M: What sort of mobile phone are you looking for, madam? Do you want to access the Internet, send text messages or play games?

W: No. I just want to make telephone calls.

M: How about this basic model? It’s very easy to use.

W: Yes. What colours have you got?

M: Well, we have this rather nice red one.

W: Red doesn’t suit me. I wear a lot of pink.

M: Well, we haven’t got pink but we have this one in blue. Does blue suit you?

W: Yes, I like blue. I’ll take it.

M: Ok. That’ll be 60 pounds. How would you like to pay, madam? By check or by credit card?

W: In cash. Here you are. 

14-17

W: How can I help you, Mr. Martin?

M: Well, I started having a bad headache weeks ago and it’s getting worse. I can’t sleep well. I’m tired all the time, and the worst thing is my hair is getting very grey and I’m only 30.

W: I see. Well, do you smoke?

M: No. I gave it up a month ago.

W: Right. I see you’re a businessman. How many hours a day do you usually work?

M: Well, I usually work eight hours a day, but at the moment I work at least ten hours.

W: That’s a lot. And how do you relax?

M: Well, I usually sit in front of the TV with a pizza and a coffee.

W: Hmm. Do you do any exercise at the moment?

M: Not really, but I’m losing a lot of weight and I don’t know why.

W: Don’t worry. I think it’s just too much work. I want you to eat more vegetables and do some exercises. Come back and see me in four weeks. 

18-20
