2.32 Lesson 5C, Exercise 4
1 So, here we are in London. There are lots of things to see
and you can find all the information you need about them in
the packs that I handed out earlier. You’ve got three hours
now to explore. Please be back on the coach by 12 so that
we can drive to the restaurant for lunch at 1. You can leave
anything that you don’t need on the coach. The driver
always locks the doors so no one can get in. Now any
questions before I let you go?
2 Man The train is very crowded, isn’t it?
WomanYes, but at least we’ve got seats.
Man Yes, that’s true. It’s usually impossible to get
a seat in the rush hour. I often have to stand. So
let’s relax and have some food.
Woman But there isn’t any food. They haven’t got any
more sandwiches in the buffet car so we can’t get
anything to eat. I’m really hungry.
Man Well, there’s a café at the station. We can eat
there, when we arrive.
Woman No, the station café is closed now. But it doesn’t
matter. We can eat at home. I don’t mind cooking.
3 Tourist Excuse me. Where’s the castle?
Local It’s at the top of the hill.
Tourist Would you recommend it?
Local Definitely! There are lovely views from the top.
But it’s quite a difficult climb. It takes nearly
an hour from here.
