Dialogue 1:
– Hello. What classroom are we in ?
– Hello. I don’t know. Let’s look up the time-table. Here it is. English class, classroom 410, main building.
– Oh, goodness. How awful, I thought we had a lecture on history at that time.
– What difference does it make?
– It does make a difference to me. I planned to do English home-assignment during the lecture.
– You are a lazy-bone. You are sure to fail in your English if you go on like that.
– I bet I won’t: idle away my time during the term and cram the last fortnight. Goes like clock-work. An excellent method I must say.
– It’s no good with language training. I know it from my own experience. Speech skills and habits need hard and regular work.
– Well, we’ll see.
Dialogue 2:
– Hello. Haven’t seen you for ages. How are you?
– Hello. I am well at present. You see, I have been ill for a month and now I have many problems.
– Have you any health problems?
– No, I haven’t. I have fallen behind in some subjects. Especially, I can’t cope with math.
– As for math, I can help you. I am good at math and have passed the exam in math ahead of time.
– I shall be very grateful to you.
– As far as I know you left school 22 and you are on good terms with English, aren’t you.
– Yes, I am. English is one of the first subjects I have passed my credit tests in. I can really give you a helping hand with English.
– When shall we start?
– I think as soon as possible. Let it be this Saturday 10 a.m.
– Agreed. So, good bye. See you on Saturday.
– Good bye.
