Dialogue 2. - Я знаю, что у вас три сестры






- Я знаю, что у вас три сестры. Где они живут?

- My elder sister Carolina lives in Detroit. My younger sister Virginia lives and works in New York. Lucy lives with our parents in Los Angeles.

- У меня тоже есть сестры. Но одна из них живет в Европе, а другая в Австралии. Я очень редко их вижу.

- It's a pity you seldom see them. It makes you unhappy. Am I right?

- Конечно. Мне бы хотелось видеться с ними чаще.

- Don't you want to go to Australia?

- Очень хочу. У меня много работы, и я не могу себе это позволить. (I can't afford it).

1.12 Read the dialogues. Introduce your new groupmate to your sister/mother/cousins.

- Let me introduce myself to you. I am George Wiler.

- How do you do, Mr. Wiler! My name is John Bush.

- How do you do, Mr. Bush! I am a teacher of biology. What is your trade?

- I am an agronomist from California.

- Pleased to know you, Mr. Bush.

- Glad to get acquainted with you, Mr. Wiler.

- Allow me to introduce Benjamin Larke to you, Mr. Flake.

- How do you do, Mr. Flake! Glad to meet you.

- How do you do, Mr. Larke! Pleased to know you. How do you like our city?

- I like it very much, though I haven't seen much of it.

- I can help you. We'll make a car tour of the city one of the days.

- It will be great!

- Alice, is the name of William Porter familiar to you?

- I don't think so.

- I want to introduce him to you. He is very clever, well edu­cated and has good manners. William, this is my sister Alice. Alice, meet William Porter.

- Hi, Alice!

- Hi, William! How are you?

- Never felt better in my life. Thanks. How are you?

- Fine, thank you.

- Mr. Medison, this is Mr. Judson.

- We've met before, haven't we?

- Sure. We played a game of tennis the other day.

- And you won the game.

- That's right.

1.13 Look through the dialogue. Tell about George Scott & Peter Brook.

- Your name is George Scott, isn't it?

- Yes, it is. I am an electronic engineer. I live and work in New-York. And what's your name?

- My name is Peter Brook. I am an editor. I live and work in San- Francisco.

- You are married, aren't you?

- Oh, yes. I am married and I've got two daughters.

- What a coincidence! I've got two daughters, too: Helen and Mary. What are your daughters' names?

- They are Susan and Jane. Susan is ten years old and Jane is eight. They both go to a private school. Do your daughters go to school?

- Not yet. Helen is five years old and Mary is three.

- They are at home, aren't they?

- Sure. My wife Joan doesn't work now. She runs the house and looks after the children. Emily is the name of my wife. She is a designer. She adores her trade and dreams of going to her office again. But she can't for the time being.

- It's only natural. Nowadays very few women are satisfied with being housewives. My wife, whose name is Nancy, is a teacher of Russian. She works at a college.

- Do you have any brothers or sisters?

- Unfortunately not. I am the only child in the family. I've got a cousin who lives in Chicago. We are on friendly terms.

- I have got a sister. She is much younger than I am. She lives with our parents in Los Angeles. I've seen very little of her of late.

- Los Angeles is a beautiful city. My aunt lives there and I visit her from time to time.

- It's a long time since I went to Los Angeles.

- Too bad!
