Maggie: The official Doctor Who Festival starts in London on Saturday. I’m so excited that I’ll be there! I’m going to watch the filming of one of the episodes. I’d also like to buy some film gadgets at their store. Aren’t you coming, John?
John: Not this time. The tickets are expensive and I’m saving money for the first four seasons of the Doctor Who series on DVD. They’re going to cost a fortune. Just like the electronic gadgets I bought last year!
Maggie: Oh, you bought some? Really?
John: Sure, I’m a real fan! And don’t forget your camera! I took a few photos of my favourite actors last year. Many of them come to the event every year.
Maggie: Wow! I didn’t know that taking pictures was allowed!
John: I was surprised too! You can also talk to them if you are lucky. We also got the chance to see how monsters are created. Then we were invited to design some of them for the next series. The film-makers didn’t think much of my project so I didn’t get a prize. Maybe you’ll get one this year.
Maggie: Oh no, not me. I’m terrible at drawing! But I hope to win the title of the Biggest Fan.
This year there’ll be Doctor Who Quiz! I’ve been preparing for it for months, learning all the facts and details about the characters and the events in different episodes.
John: I’ll keep my fingers crossed! You know what? Let’s revise together before you go to London.
Maggie: That’s a great idea!

One day I was looking for a game in one of those large stores and found an empty place on the shelf where the game had been. I asked an employee walking past if he could help and he promised to go in the back and look for the game. I was asked to wait for a moment. After 10 minutes, as he still hadn’t returned, I stopped another employee. He said that his colleague had gone home. Unbelievable! I’ll never go to that store again.

Hannah, I’ve just read on the Internet that experts have announced a black list of unreliable companies and the firm we’ve ordered our cosmetics from is there. When you get the package, throw away its contents immediately. The cosmetics might be dangerous. I think I already have an allergic reaction to one of the creams I got yesterday.

Interviewer: Hello. With me today is Martin Cooper, the inventor of the mobile phone.
Martin, what was a mobile phone like in 1973?
Martin Cooper: It was big and heavy, it weighed 1.5 kilos. Can you imagine? Its battery ran down after 35 minutes and it took about 10 hours to charge up.
Interviewer: Unbelievable! That was probably why people didn’t rush to buy the first model.
Martin Cooper: No, the real reason why its sales were low was that only the richest people could afford it. That would be like buying a small car these days.

You wanted my opinion, Tom. To my mind, it hardly makes any difference which suit you wear when you attend your job interview – black, navy blue or grey. Anybody who’s sitting on the interview panel will be interested in the skills you have. The colour of your clothes is of less importance. They want to choose the right person for the job. Trust me. I’ve been to many job interviews in lots of companies and I know what counts.

Man: Ann, I don’t understand why you were so angry when I mentioned the Board Game Day organized in our local library on Saturday. You know I’m a fan of board games so I don’t want to miss it. Ann, I know you find it childish, but people of different ages play board games now. I’d love to go there with you, but if you think it’s a waste of time, you don’t have to join me.
Woman: But you promised me we would have a meal in that new Italian restaurant on the corner.
Man: And we will. The event finishes at 4 p.m. so I will be back in time to have dinner out.

Woman: Hi! Good to see you. We’ll bring Rusty in a moment.
Man: Great! I can’t wait to take him home.
Woman: I see you love dogs, don’t you?
Man: Yes, I was going to buy one for my kids but when I saw the Internet photos of the dogs in your shelter, I decided to take one home.
Woman: Great decision. The kids will be happy and it won’t cost you a penny. And one more thing, the dog has already been examined by the vet, so you don’t have to worry.
Man: Thank you.
