# 1 [p] Passports, Please.

Mr. and Mrs. Tupman are at the airport. They have just got off the plane from Paris.

A: Passports, please.

B: I think I’ve lost the passports, Poppy.

C: How stupid of you, Peter. Didn’t you put them in your pocket?

B: Here’s a pen, a pencil, my pipe, a postcard, an envelope, a stamp, a pin.

C: Oh, stop taking things out of your pockets. Perhaps, you put them in a plastic bag.

B: Here’s your newspaper, an apple, a pear, a plastic cup, a spoon, some paper plates, a piece of pork pie, a pepper-pot.

C: Oh, stop pulling things out of the plastic bag, Peter. These people are getting impatient.

B: Well, help me, Poppy.

C: We’ve lost our passports. Perhaps, we dropped them on the plane.

A: Then let the other passengers pass, please.

B: Poppy, why don’t you help? You aren’t being very helpful. Put the things in the plastic bag.

A: Your name, please.

B: Tupman.

A: Please, go upstairs with this policeman, Mr. Tupman.

# 2 [b] Happy birthday!

B: Hello, Bob! It’s my birthday today.

B: And big black buttons.

A: Did Ruby buy it for you?

B: Yes. And my brother gave me a hairbrush and a book about baby birds.

A: I didn’t remember your birthday, Barbara. I’m terribly sorry.

B: Well, you could buy me a big bottle of perfume, Bob.
