SPEAKING
Exercise 6: Talk about your favourite Egyptian invention. You should say:
- What kind invention do you like?
- What is it made from/of?
- Why do you like it?
- Should everyone have it? Why?
I love the pyramids from Egypt. They're big structures made of large stones. The ancient
Egyptians built them without today's machines, which is amazing. The pyramids were made as
tombs for important people. I like them because they're mysterious and teach us about the past.
Not everyone can have a pyramid because they're so big, but learning about them is cool because
it shows how smart people were a long time ago.

1 What day will they meet?

F: How about dinner sometime this week? There’s a great new restaurant in town.

M: Good idea. What’s today? Thursday? Because I think I’ve got an appointment with the
dentist.

F: Actually it’s Tuesday. So is tonight good for you then?

M: Well, I can’t on Wednesdays, as I’m working late, so tonight is probably best. I’ll call you
later…

2 How much does the woman pay for the ticket?

F: Hello. Do you have cheap tickets for Paris for tomorrow?

M: The cheapest is £104, Madam, but I’m afraid they’re all sold out.

F: Oh well, I guess I’ll have to pay the standard price of £180, then.

M: Actually, we have a special offer of a £40 discount this week. So that’s £140 rather than
£180, Madam. Now, if you would just…

3 What job does the man do?

M: Well, my job at the hotel is very difficult at times. Sometimes the customers have problems
with our staff; especially with our waiters and waitresses.

F: What about the receptionists, then? Do they ever have any problems with the guests?

M: Sometimes yes, but not that often. If anyone needs my help, they call me and I come right
away from my office.

4 What are they watching tonight?

M: What’s on TV tonight?

F: There’s a new film about the life of a famous doctor.

M: That sounds really interesting. But I think there’s also a dance competition.

F: Oh, yes. What about The Men in Blue? It’s a film about the lives of police officers.

M: Let’s watch that next Saturday online, when Jin is here. So what about now? The
competition?

F: Yes. I think Jin will love The Men in Blue.

5 What is the weather like now?

M: Look how great the clouds look in the sky!

F: They do look nice but I prefer the sun. It makes me happy!

M: Well, it looks like it’s going to rain in a few minutes so no clear sky today.

F: I hope so. It hasn’t rained in a while and the trees need some water. It’ll be sunny at the
weekend anyway.
