My summer vacation
Read the following dialogue in parts and dramatize it:
It’s nice to see you, Mary. How are you?
Good evening, Alex. Hope you are well. Haven’t seen you for ages. Where have you been all this time?
I have just arrived from Brighton. I was spending my summer holidays at the sea-side. Have you ever been there?
Yes, I have been there several times. It’s a nice place, isn’t it? I hope you have enjoyed yourself greatly.
Oh, yes. I have had a very nice time.
Did you go there alone?
No, together with John, an old friend of mine. You remember him, don’t you?
Sure. Has he graduated from college?
No, not yet. He is in his last year. What about you? I haven’t heard from you lately. How are you getting on?
Thank you, quite all right. Come and see me some day, will you?
I’ll be delighted. So long.
See you soon. Bye!
