DAILY CONVERSATION

Situation: Jane meets a friend, Alice, at a reunion of former pupils at their old school.
Jane: Hello Alice. Do you remember me?
Alice: Hi Jane. You look well.
Jane: It must be eight years since you left school.
Alice: That's right. You were five years below me. I was in the same year as your older sister,
wasn’t I?
Jane: Yes. After school I got a place at university and am studying Accountancy and Business
studies.
Alice: That sounds interesting. I got a job as a translator.
Jane: What languages do you speak?
Alice: Apart from English, I speak French and German.
Jane: I didn't get on well with my French teacher here at school, so I dropped the subject at the
end of my fifth year.
Alice: Where do you study?
Jane: In London. I enjoy living in London.
Alice: I sometimes travel to different parts of Britain to do translating. Next week I have an
assignment in London.
Jane: Will you have time to call and visit me whilst you are in the area?
Alice: Yes, I'd love to.
Jane: I'll give you my phone number. Ring me in the evening.
Alice: Thank you. We'll be able to have more time to catch up and reminisce about our school.
