Business meeting workshop

In a working setting, to be able to speak in a second language, English in

particular, is a must. It allows to manage technical processes and opens up new
business opportunities. This is the reason why, this time, the training and
complementary material focuses on meetings; and it gives, not only some
important meeting expressions, but some meaningful tips on pronunciation. Now,
it's time for you to evidence your learning throughout this workshop.

SIMPLE PAST
MARTIN´S VACATION

Martin had a terrible day yesterday. It was the day of his vacation to Spain but it
was a nightmare. He left the house at 10 o'clock in the morning and caught a taxi
to the airport.
Martin went to the check-in with his luggage. When the man who worked for the
airline asked for his passport, Martin became very upset. Where was his passport?
Martin realized he didn't have his passport with him. What a disaster!
He jumped back into the taxi and told the driver to take him home. The driver drove
quickly and Martin arrived back at his house in twenty minutes.
He ran into the house and went into his bedroom. He found his passport on the
bedside table and left the house again. But the taxi wasn't there! Where was the
taxi!
Martin jumped up and down angrily. "I don't believe it. The taxi left!" he shouted. He
ran down the street and looked for another taxi.
After a few minutes, Martin found another taxi and told the driver to take him to the
airport as quickly as possible. The traffic on the roads was very bad and,
unfortunately, Martin's taxi arrived at the airport late. His plane left for Spain at
11.30 and Martin missed it. He was very sad and went to speak to the airline. They
promised to get him a seat on an evening flight and Martin went home on another
taxi to wait.
