Sorry! Were you trying to sleep?

Yes, and while I think of it,please ask when you borrow the iron.

How do you do?

How do you do?

What do you think of life in England?

I'm still feeling pretty homesick.

What a shame!

Thank you for a wonderful meal.

I'm glad you enjoyed it.

B.In the Cinema.

What shall we do tonight?

How about the cinema?

That's a good idea. We haven't been for ages.

What would you like to see?

Oh, I don't know. Spy Story?

Spy Story? That terrible, old film?

But it's got James Perevelle in it. I'm still trying to write a story about him, you know.

But I've seen it before.

Never mind. Perhaps you'll like it better the second time.

(In the cinema) (You look so beautiful in that dress. Why do you have to die?)

Would you like an ice cream?

Shhhh. No, thank you.

(Let's run away together and forget about the whole world.)

What about some chocolates?

Shut up! I'm watching the film.

Well, I'm gonna get myself some chocolates. (Just you and me and nobody else.) (After the film)

That was really wonderful.

Wonderful? Don't be silly.

He's a fantastic actor.

Do you feel alright?

Of course, I do.

I just wondered. You don't usually like rubbish films like that.

It wasn't rubbish at all. Some of the films you like are really terrible, though.

C.A Science Fiction Story.

The spaceship flew around the new planet several times. The planet was blue and green. They couldn't see the surface of the planet because there were too many white clouds. The spaceship descended slowly through the clouds and landed in the middle of a green forest. The two astronauts put on their space suits, openedthe door, climbed carefully down the ladder, and stepped onto the planet.

The woman looked at a small control unit on her arm. 'It's all right,' she said to the man. 'We can breathe the air... it's a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen.' Both of them took off their helmets and breathed deeply.

They looked at everything carefully. All the plants and animals looked new and strange. They could not find any intelligent life.

After several hours, they returned to their spaceship. Everything looked normal. The man switched on the controls, but nothing happened. 'Something's wrong,' he said. 'I don't understand ... the engines aren't working.' He switched on the computer, but that didn't work either. 'Eve,' he said, 'we're stuck here ... we can't take off!'

'Don't worry, Adam,' she replied. 'They'll rescue us soon.'

Section 3 Dictation
