EVERYDAY ENGLISH
Read the dialogues, say where they take place. Act the dialogues.
- A: Is that a new painting? Seventeen century, isn’t it?
B: Yes, I bought it last week. Is not an original, though!
A: Can you imagine living in those days?
B: Yes, I’m sure life was tough without electricity, telephones, washing machines…
A: And I bet it used to take days just to travel from one place to another.
B: Yeah, imagine – no cars, trains or planes, just coaches.
A: At least there was no pollution in those days.
B: That’s true. Rivers were clean, and the air was pure.
A: You know, maybe life wasn’t so bad back then, after all!
- A: How was your trip to the USA, Alice?
B: It was fantastic. We had a great time, thanks.

A: What?
B: Get a ticket to Sea World as soon as you can.
A: I think you are right. I haven’t been on holiday for years.
B: Well! Here’s your chance.
READING AND SPEAKING
1 Read the text about an American student's daily routine. Is your working day the same or different?
Every morning I get up at 6:30am. I get out of bed and get ready for work. After I brush my teeth and take a shower, I get dressed. After I eat my breakfast, I try to put the cat into garage for the day. Usually he tries to escape. He gets under the bed so that I can’t reach him. I sometimes get angry at the cat because when I say, “Get over here!” he doesn’t listen. Finally, after I get the cat out from under the bed, I get my keys and briefcase and leave the house.
I get into my car and drive to work. I get on 1-264 at Military Highway, and I get off 1-264 at Waterside. I usually get to work at about 9:30am. I never get lost because I drive the same route every day. In my office I get going on my work, getting my lessons ready.
My classes get over at about 3:30pm every day. I go back to my office and read my mail. I get tired at about 4pm and get out of my office as soon as I can. I get mad if there is a lot of traffic on 1-264. I usually get home at about 5pm.
I get my dinner ready and get the cat of the garage. Sometimes while I am eating, the cat gets up on the table, but I tell him, "Get down off the table!” When I get full, I stop eating and clean my dishes. Sometimes the cat rubs against my leg and I tell him, “Get away from me, you crazy cat!”
After I watch the news, I usually read at my desk. From time to time the cat gets up on my desk and gets on top of the book I am reading! I say, “Get out of here, cat!” and I get him off my book. But he is stubborn, and gets back up into the desk and gets on top of my book again, so I can’t read. I finally decide to get rid of the cat before I get really angry with him again. I put him in the garage and lock the door.
Around 10 o’clock I get sleepy and decide to get ready for bed. I brush my teeth and get undressed and get into bed to read for about half an hour. I usually get to sleep by about 11pm, and hope I don’t have a bad dream about the CAT!
2 Say how your daily activity has changed since you became a student. Use the Past Simple speaking about your usual day at school.
Example:
Being a schoolboy, I usually got up at 7 o'clock, but now I get up at 6.30 a.m.
