Part B
Dialogue 1.---I'm going for a walk
(Sound of wind)
-Hello, Mary. Why are you standing here in the cold wind?
-I'm waiting for a bus. But the buses are very full at this time of the day.
-Where are you going? This isn't your way home. You must take a bus from the other side of the street to go home.
-But I'm not going home now. I'm going for a walk in the park.
-Going for a walk? In such cold weather?
-I always like to go for a walk before supper.
-I see. Then why are you going by bus? Why not go to the park on foot? It isn't very far from here.
-Oh, no, Bill. But it isn't very interesting to walk through the street. In fact, it's very boring, so I always take a NO.3 bus to go to the park.
Dialogue Two--- You are asking a lot of questions.
(Sound of music)
-Hello, Mrs Tailor. Can you help me? I'm doing my homework and I can't understand this word.
-Which one? Oh, that is difficult. I can't help you right away. I'm watching something on TV.
-Oh? What are you watching?
-I'm watching a cowboy song.
-Can Mr.Tailor help me?
-No, he can't now. He's reading.
-What is he reading?
-He's reading a magazine.
-What about Kate?
-Oh, she can't help you either. She's making a phone call now.
-Oh, who's she calling?
-She's calling her boyfriend. You're asking a lot of questions tonight, Paul.
-Am I? Well, I'm practising my English.
