1.
W: Did you have a nice weekend?
M: Yes. My brother and I played basketball on Saturday, and then we went to the movies. On Sunday I visited my friends.
2.
M: I knew Laurie played the piano, but I didn't know she played the guitar.
W: Neither did I. It seems she picked it up on her own over the summer.
3.
W: Excuse me, is there a church near here?
M: Sure. Go one block and turn right. You will find it next to a hospital on your left.
W: Thank you.
4.
M: Would you like to go to the grocery store for me?
W: I'm sorry but I'm too busy. Besides, you can order your groceries through the Internet and save you a lot of time.
5.
M: I know what to get Mom for Mother's Day.
W: A computer?
M: No, even better. A dog.
W: That's a bad idea. Look outside. It's snowing. Do you think she wants to walk a dog in the snow?
6.
W: Goodbye,darling! Good luck with the interview.
M: Thanks. I hope the trains are running on time. If the trains are delayed, I'll get a taxi. I don't want to be late.
W: Well, phone me when you can.
M: I will. As soon as I come out of the interview, I'll give you a ring. What are you doing today?
W: When I get to the office,I will look in my diary. I don't think I;m doing much today.
M: Don't forget to pick up the children as soon as you get back from work.
W: I won't.

M: How long did you live in the States?
W: We were there for 2 years, in New York. We had a wonderful time there. What we liked best was that we could work and yet still lead a normal life. I mean, the shops are open still 10:00, such as food shops ,chemists. And some supermarkets are open 24 hours a day. Most shops don't open as early as in England. They don't open until about 10:00 in the morning.
M: Did you make any friends?
W: Well, that what's interesting. We made more friends in our two years there than we have after two years of living back here in London. I think Americans are more open. They speak their minds directly. Not like the British, who might think one thing and say another. So maybe the British are ruder than Americans.

W: Yeah, the traffic was terrible, and the weather, in took me ages to get here. I'll just put my umbrella in the corner, shall I? Anyway I'm sorry I'm late.
M: Well, I'm glad you got here in the end. Now, we should probably get going as fast as we can, because I have got another interview at 12:00. Why do you want to work for us?
W: Well, I'm a bit bored where I'm working at the moment, so I'd really like a change. Your company is bigger, and the salary is a lot better than the job I've got. Also, I like the unfixed working hours, because I find it really hard to get up in the morning!
M: And where do you want to be in 5 years' time?
W: Australia, I hope! I'm planning to stay in Britain for a year or two, but to be honest I really want to move somewhere hot and sunny.
