Lesson 13.
Section 1.
Task 1. Guess what people are talking about.
Ah, it's such a lovely day, it reminds me of last week, doesn't it, you? Oh, don't,
I mean that was just so fantastic, that holiday.
I love that city, you know.
I do, too.
Really, it's got something about it, a certain sort of charm.
Mm, and all that wine and good food. (And so cheep)
Yes, I mean compared to here...(Yes, although the shops are expensive)
I mean, really I bought nothing at all.
I just ate and ate and drank and drank.
Yeah, wasn't that lovely?
Yes, and I...I...I don't...I like listening to the people talking and sitting outside drinking wine.
Yes, could you understand what they were saying?
When they were speaking quickly, I mean.
Well, it is difficult, of course.
And then I liked that tower, too.
You liked that tower?
I'm not sure about it, really.
It's very unusual, right in the center of the city.
True, but there's a lovely view from the top.
Oh, you went right up, didn't you? (Mm, yes) Oh no, I didn't.
Of course you didn't.I remember that day, We weren't together.
No, that's right. (Mm) You went down by the river, didn't you? That's it,
Oh, walking along the river and all the couples (yes) and it's so romantic, (it's true) and the paintings too...
They do have artists down by the river, do they? (Yes) Oh, how lovely!
Oh, it really is super.
Oh, I think we ought to go back there again next year, don't you?
I do, yes. If only just to sample some more of the wine.
It'd be lovely, wouldn't it? Yes.
