Extract One
Lizzie: So, have you come to a decision about taking up the keyboard or the drums? I have and
I’ve
bought a great keyboard!
Raphael:
I’m still not 100% sure, to be honest. We’ve got a huge garage at home that’d be easy to
soundproof, so my parents
don’t think the noise will be a problem whether I go for a keyboard or drums.
Lizzie: Are they sure about that?
Raphael: Well, anyway, on keyboards and on an electronic drum kit
there’s a knob to adjust the sound
level. But the deciding factor might be that
I’d struggle to take drums anywhere. I don’t have my own
car. But going
back to what I was saying, our garage would make a great
rehearsal space for any
instrument. Why
don’t you come over to see it?
Lizzie: Sounds fantastic! Listen, if you went for the drums,
we’d be able to practise together at your
place. And my
brother’s got a van, so if we got to the point where we played in a group, he’d be happy
to give us and our kit a lift. What do you think?
Raphael: Oh, I
don’t know. I want to make sure I decide what’s best for me because neither instrument’s
cheap to buy.
Extract Two
Man: Hi. Are you meeting our new Mexican clients next week?
Woman: Yes,
I’ve booked the main board room for the meeting and I’m taking them out to the Clayton
restaurant for lunch.
Man: Wow!
That’ll make a great first impression. The atmosphere’s perfect for a formal lunch.
Woman: Yes, I always feel a bit tense when I meet clients for the first time, even when I
don’t need to
put my best business suit on
and I just meet them in my
office – you know, a much more informal
meeting. I always feel as though
I’ve got to watch what I say and I end up not being my usual candid
self.
Man: But
it’s interesting how relationships change over the years. Do you remember Lilly Douglas? We
all thought she was wonderful when we first met her, but when she became the chief accountant, she
became very distant
…
Woman: Absolutely, to the point where she was almost unfriendly. That can happen. It just goes to
show that
there’s a very clear line between business relationships and the genuine closeness you get
with your friends.
