Correct Answers:

Have you found a room for your birthday party yet Rosie? Yes, at the University Hotel. It's old, but the room's nice and big. Did you look at any other places? Yes, five! And there was something wrong with all of them. Why didn't you like Brown's cafe? I loved it. But they're putting in a new kitchen, so they won't be open for two months. Mmm. And the Rivers Hotel? It was very cold when I went there last year. It's quite warm now, but it's not very clean. Oh, pity. What about the Bridge restaurant? Or is it too dark there? No, but the problem is none of their rooms is free on my birthday. And it's expensive. Not really, but the Garden House is. Oh, yes, I know. I had a great dinner party at the Opera Cafe last week. It's fine for a dinner, but it's not big enough for a party. So, the University Hotel it is then? Yes.

Correct Answers:

I really enjoyed the art lesson yesterday, Eva. Me too, David. I liked going into the city to draw different places. Is this your picture of the museum? Yes. What did you draw? I couldn't decide between the castle and the market. In the end, I did a drawing of people buying vegetables. Do you know what Luke drew? Yes. I met him in a cafe after the lesson. His picture was of some people in the park having a picnic. I know Mary loves drawing water. Did she go to the river? She went to the Sports Center and drew some children having a swimming lesson. What about Patrick? We were walking to the market together, but then he saw someone cleaning windows in the bank and he stopped to draw that. Christina is the best artist. I saw her in Bridge Street, sitting at a table having a drink. She was drawing a waiter talking to a customer. The picture looked really good. What a great art lesson.

Correct Answers:

I like your new t-shirt Sarah. The colours are nice, but the problem is it's too big. I got it from the shop at the sports centre. I went swimming there because it was a hot day, but it was too noisy for me. There were a lot of people in the pool. So was it difficult to find a space in the car park there? Yes, it's not big enough. Did you go to the cafe? Yes, for a cold drink. But I didn't stay. The tables and floor weren't clean. Ugh. But I hear they have a good football club there. That's right. My brother wanted to go, but it starts too late in the evening for him. It's a pity because it's not an expensive club. Can you learn tennis there? I called about lessons, but they cost too much. I'll teach you tennis, but not today. It's too hot. Let's go for a cold swim in the river.

Correct Answers:

Hello Jack. You want to go to the sport centre one day a week don't you? Well I've got some information. On Monday there's golf. I prefer volleyball Mark. Also Monday's a bad day for me. Tuesday's better. Is there volleyball then? It's basket ball. But you like that don't you? Quite. What can you do on Wednesday? Let's see. It was badminton but not enough people wanted to do it so it's swimming now. That's no good for me because I hate water and I go to swimming at school every Tuesday. Is there anything outside football or hockey on Thursday? But they don't do hockey I'm afraid just football. But look Friday's good. Why? You say you like volleyball. Well that's at the sport centre then. Great. Or there's Saturday. Swimming again. Tennis. That's outside. And you like it better than football don't you? Yes. But I like volleyball best.

She's certainly not quiet. I know her brother Bob. He was there too. He's still at school isn't he? Yes. Everyone was a lot older than him, but he didn't mind. Another person I liked was David.

She preferred swimming here to the hotel pool. The sea looks very blue. And who's this standing outside a castle? Jack. But it's not a castle. It's a cathedral. It's one of the oldest in Spain. And is this you Sarah buying bananas in a market? Yes. That wasn't far from our hotel. The fruit was really cheap there. And here's Peter eating. Is he in the garden of your hotel? Actually it's a restaurant near the cathedral. We often went there. What's your father doing with the cassette recorder in this photo? Oh, he loves history. He's in a museum here listening to information. That was his favourite day because we also visited a castle in the morning. They're great photos Sarah.

Well my little sister's seven. And she plays with my brother Roger. So they must be the same age. They are. Then there's my other little brother Frank. And how old is he? He's two years younger than Roger. So he's only five. There must be someone else. Oh Deborah, I nearly forgot. Isn't she eighteen and starting at college in September? Yes.

How was the party with your old school friends, Patrick? Great mother. We've changed a lot since 1990. Look at this photo. Was Peter there? Yes, this is him and a sports jacket. Oh yes. And is Martin still wearing a t-shirt and dirty jeans? Well, he's a businessman now, so he can't be dirty. But he was wearing jeans. Look. Oh yes. And is this person with the long coat Joanna? It's like her, isn't it? But Joanna is standing next to Amy and wearing a red sweater. Is that Amy? I can't believe it. She's so thin. That black dress doesn't look very good on her. Hmm. She's been ill. That man in the big hat is her husband, James. Oh. Isn't that Robert? No. See the man in the red t-shirt with the blue trousers. That's Robert. How people change.
