1 -John, I have two job offers. One in New York and one in San Francisco. But I really can't decide which one is better. In my opinion, New York is more interesting than San Francisco.

- I disagree. I think San Francisco is much more interesting than New York.

- Do you think the weather in New York is better than the weather in San Francisco?

-No, I don't. I think the weather in San Francisco is much better than the weather in New York. Plus New York is too crowded. San Francisco is a much more easy going city than New York.

-I'm arriving in Mexico City at 15.30 local time. Could you meet me at the airport?

-I'm sorry, but that's not possible. You see, I've got an important meeting.

-OK, I understand. Do you think you could book a car with a driver?

-Yes, of course. I'll do that right now.

- Wonderful. See you tomorrow evening at the hotel.

-Bye, and have a good trip!

 

2 -The thing is, our new word processor needs more advertising.

- Exactly.

- The question is, what kind of advertising? Now, I've thought a lot about this, and I think we should try a television campaign.

- A good TV campaign could increase sales by 50 percent.

-Absolutely. You're a genius, sir!

- I'm glad you agree, Wilbur. What about you, Linda?

-I'm afraid I don't agree, sir.

-What do you mean?

- In my opinion, it's a complete waste of money.

 

3 -Hello, Kathleen, I saw you yesterday, but you didn't see me.

-Really? When?

-At about 4:00. You were going to the beach.

-That wasn't me. Yesterday at 3:30 I was playing tennis with my brother.

-Oh well, I guess I made a mistake.

 

4 -Hi Jim, I saw you yesterday, but I don't think you saw me.

-Really? When?

-At about 6:00. You were riding a bicycle in Central Park.

-No, that wasn't me. Yesterday at 6 o'clock I was cleaning the apartment.

-Oh well, I guess I mistook you for someone else.

 

5 - I think I'll go to the park now.

-No, you mustn't do that.

-Why not?

- It's too late. People mustn't walk alone in the park at night.

 

6 -Actually, I think men are often better cooks than women.

-Mmm… I'm not really sure… I suppose a lot of famous chefs are men… but then think of all the men who can't cook at all.

 

7 - I personally believe that you should never hit children.

-Yes, I agree in theory … completely… sometimes it can be difficult though… if you lose your temper,

8 -In my opinion, all forms of gambling should be banned!

-Mmm… I don't really agree. I think if people want to spend their money like that, it's up to them really.

 

9 -I really believe that men are better drivers than women - it's just a fact!

-What! That's absolute rubbish! Men are the ones who drive too fast and cause all the accidents! No, I'm sorry, I completely disagree with you about that!

 

10 I think teachers should earn more money - they do a very difficult job!

-Yes, you're absolutely right! Their salaries should be doubled at least!

 

11 -Eric, I think I'll wear my yellow tie to work today.

-No, you mustn't do that.

-Why not?

-You don't look good in ties. In fact, you mustn't wear any ties, ever, at all.

 

12 -Mary, do you think it'll rain tomorrow?

-I don't know. Maybe it will, and maybe it won't. We'll just have to wait and see.

 

13 -Do you think you'll be happy in your new neighbourhood?

-I don't know. Maybe I will, and maybe I won't. Live and learn, as they say.

 

 

♫ 14 -What is he going to cook tonight?

- Who knows? Tonight he might cook scrambled eggs or make pizza. I think he can't make up his mind.

 

♫ 15 -What are you going to give your wife for her birthday?

- I don't know. I might give her a watch or I might give her a bottle of perfume. I really can't decide.

 

♫ 16 -Where are you going on vacation?

-I don't know. I might go to Italy or I might go to France. It's really hard to decide.

 

♫ 17 -Jill, I'm going to have some milk, would you like some?

-Kate, you mustn't drink that kind of milk.

-What kind of milk should I drink?

-You must drink fresh milk. This milk is already spoiled.

 

♫ 18 -Let's buy 2 more hamburgers.

-No, we mustn't.

- Why not?

-Because they're too expensive and we must buy french-fries for Jill.
