Carol: Hi Adam!
Adam: Hi? Carol: How are you? Alright? Adam: (sigh) Tired. Carol: You look it. Did you have a bad day? Adam: Not great. I didn’t sleep well last night. I was fixing my computer until half past midnight. I went to bed at one o’clock in the morning. Then my son woke me up at twenty to four because he felt sick. Carol: Poor thing. Is he ok? Adam: Oh yes. I talked to him for twenty minutes and then he went back to sleep. I didn’t. I lay awake in bed until about six. Then my alarm clock went off at a quarter to seven. Carol: Oh dear. Adam: So I turned it off and went to sleep again. Then, of course, I overslept! I woke up again at ten minutes to eight. I usually leave home at eight o’clock! I washed and dressed. I didn’t have breakfast. No time. And then I forgot my wallet! Carol: Oh no! Adam: Yes, I left it at home. Thankfully, I had some money in my pocket, so I could buy lunch. But I had to borrow some money from a colleague to buy petrol. There wasn’t enough in the car to get home. Carol: At least you got home. Was work okay? Adam: Yes, except that I was so tired. I had a meeting in the morning and I did paperwork in the afternoon. Nothing special. Carol: Well, you can relax this evening. You can watch a nice film on TV. Adam: Relax? I don’t think so! I have to cook dinner tonight because my wife is working late. Then I have to take my son to football practice, walk the dog, iron some clothes and clean the bathroom. I’ll be lucky if I’m in bed by half past eleven! |

Kevin: Is that your sister - the girl over there?
Maria: Yes, that’s my sister Catherine. How did you know? Kevin: You look similar. Maria: Do you think so? Kevin: Yes, I mean, obviously you have different hair. Hers is blonde, yours is brown. Maria: And Catherine’s isn’t curly, like mine. Kevin: No, but your faces are the same. Maria: I don’t think so. Her eyes are a different colour to mine. Hers are blue, mine are green. Kevin: I’m not talking about eye colour. I mean, the shape of your faces. Her face is longer than yours, yes, but you have the same mouths, and the same noses. Maria: I don’t think I look like her. She’s much slimmer than me. Kevin: Maybe, but she isn’t any taller. Maria: No. Kevin: Are your personalities the same? Maria: No! We’re nothing like each other! Catherine’s much more outgoing than me. She has lots of friends. I’m quieter. I prefer my own company. She’s bossier too. I suppose it’s because she’s older than me. Kevin: You must have some things in common. Maria: Well, we both like music, and the countryside, and we’re both independent. I suppose we have those things in common. What about you? Do you have a brother or a sister…? |
