Text 2 M: Have we missed it? The man said it’s only five blocks away, opposite the bank. W: Wait a minute. The Chinese restaurant, the National Bank... there it is! The Radisson Hotel. Text 3 M: Let’s meet at twenty to five. W: Well, could we make it twenty past five? M: That’s a bit late for me. I could manage ten past. W: OK. See you then.

W: I’ll phone you tomorrow. I should have everything sorted out by then. Text 5 W: Thanks for all you’ve done for me. Hey, listen. Would you like to go to see a film sometime? M: Yea! That’d be great. I’d love it. Text 6 W: Hey, where is everybody? M: They took Ben to the park. Where have you been? W: Sorry, I’m late. I picked up the cake and it took me longer than I expected.

I’ll put the candles on the cake and leave it in the kitchen and then I’ll come and help set the table. Text 7
