Read these micro-dialogues. Reproduce them. Make up your own

Ones.

1. – What do you think of the exams?

– I reckon they were deadly easy.

– May be they were easy enough for you, but they were much too hard

for me.

– Oh, come on. You’ve probably done better than you think.

 

2. – How’s your son been doing at school lately, Mr.Sanders? I hear that he

is likely to win all the prizes in the exams this year.

– Yes, so his teachers say. But he deserves to do so. He’s always been

so conscientious and hard-working and he’s been slaving at his books every

evening for months on end recently. He wants to go to Oxford University next

year. May be he’ll become a university lecturer himself eventually.

 

3. – Vicky, what language do you study?

– English.

– What’s the most difficult aspect of learning it?

– Well, I’m very embarrassed when we have to speak English in front of the

class. Terrible pronunciation and things like that. Also I think listening compre-

hension is very difficult, because it’s always difficult to keep up.

– Yes, studying languages is much harder than studying math or history or

something. Especially, if you are not gifted.

 

4. – How did you do in your informatics test?

– Oh, don’t ask!

– Oh, dear. What did you get?

– Twenty percent. I came last. I thought I was going to do really well.

 

5. – Can you help me with my math homework? We’re doing algebra.

– Believe me, I would if I could, but I don’t know the first thing about alge-

bra. Sorry.
