# 11 [d ] George Churchill.

A: Just outside this village is a very dangerous bridge.

B: Yes. Charles told me two Jeeps crashed on it in January. What happened?

A: Well, George Churchill was the driver of the larger Jeep. And he was driving very dangerously. He’d been drinking gin.

B: George Churchill. Do I know Gorge Churchill?

A: Yes, that ginger-haired chap. He is the manager of the travel agency in Chester.

B: Oh, yes. I remember George. He is always telling jokes. Well, was anybody injured?

A: Oh, yes. The other Jeep went over the edge of the bridge and two children and another passenger were badly injured.

B: Were both the Jeeps damaged?

A: Oh, yes.

B: And what happened to George?

A: George. Ha-ha. He’s telling jokes in jail now, I suppose.

Joice takes her Rolls-Royce to the garage.

M: What a terrible noise!

J: Eh?

M: What a terrible noise! This is the noisiest Rolls-Royce I ever heard.

J: It’s out of oil.

M: Out of oil? And look! The water‘s boiling! Madam, a Rolls-Royce isn’t a toy. Perhaps you’ve spoiled the motor or even destroyed it.

J: How annoying! While you’re changing the oil, I’ll go and visit my boy-friend, Roy.

B: On the ground?

A: Yes. It’s under the couch now.

B: Well, get it out.

A: How?

B: Turn the couch upside down. Get it out somehow. We don’t want a mouse in our house. Ours is the cleanest house in the town.

B: Ah… You’re joking, Joan. There’s no snow.

Mr. and Mrs. Lere are on holiday in Austria.

A: She’s traveling to Amsterdam.

B: You’re mad, Ann. I don’t understand.

H: Honey, why are you so sad? Honey, why are you so unhappy? I don’t understand.

W: You don’t love me, Russ.

H: But honey, I love you very much.

W: That’s untrue. You love my cousin, Sunny. You think she’s lovely and I’m ugly.

H: Janet, just once last month I took Sunny out for lunch. You mustn’t worry. I like your company much better than Sunny’s.

W: Oh, shut up, Russ.

H: But, honey, I think you’re wonderful. You mustn’t …

W: Oh, shut up!

# 6 [a: ]

B: Isn’t it on the bookshelf?

A: No, the bookshelf is full of your cookery books.

B: Then you should look in the bedroom, shouldn’t you?

A: I’ve looked. You took that book and put it somewhere, didn’t you?
