6. Read and learn the following dialogues by heart. Dialogue 1 breakfast time
A. |
What do you usually have for breakfast? |
B. |
Well, as a rule, I don’t feel hungry early in the morning, so I usually have a light breakfast: just a sandwich with cheese or sausage and a cup of strong tea with lemon. What about you? |
A. |
Oh, I am a hearty eater, and I always have a big breakfast. I begin with a plate of porridge, then I eat bacon and eggs, after which I have a cup of tea with a piece of cake or some cookies. I like my tea with a lot of sugar. |
Dialogue 2 having a bite
Rachel: |
I am hungry. What about having a bite? |
Sam: |
Good idea. Let’s drop into this small café. |
Rachel: |
О.K. Oh, it’s very nice here. Let’s sit at that table. |
Sam: |
All right. |
Waiter: |
Hello. Here’s the menu. What will you order? |
Sam: |
Thank you. Rachel, what would you like? |
Rachel: |
My supper is usually a very simple meal, so I’d like some roast chicken, salad and coffee. |
Waiter: |
I can offer you sliced cucumbers with sour cream. |
Rachel: |
I prefer tomatoes to cucumbers. |
Sam: |
As for me, I would take cabbage salad. And I will have roast beef and smashed potatoes. And coffee, of course. |
Waiter: |
Any wine? |
Sam: |
Oh, yes, a bottle of port wine and non-carbonated water. |
Waiter: |
Yes, sir. |
Dialogue 3 at the restaurant
Waiter: |
Good evening, sir, madam. Here’s the menu. May I have your order? |
John: |
Now, let’s see. Let’s start from the appetizers. I would take a herring and some pickled cucumbers. For the first course I’d like a red-beet soup. And for the second course I’d take a beefsteak in mushroom sauce and baked potatoes. |
Waiter: |
How do you prefer the beefsteak, sir? Rare, medium-rare or well-done? |
John: |
Medium, I think. |
Waiter: |
O. K. What about you madam? |
Lora: |
What would you recommend for the first course? |
Waiter: |
Well, I should say that fish soup is the speciality of the house. |
Lora: |
I think I’ll take it. And for the second course I can’t decide between the veal and roast beef. What do you recommend? |
Waiter: |
I would have the veal with the special white sauce. It comes with French fried potatoes. |
Lora: |
O. K. I’ll take it. As to the vegetables, would you bring me some green peas? |
Waiter: |
Of course. Would you like something to drink? |
Lora: |
Orange juice for me, I think. What about you John? |
John: |
I’ll have the same. |
Waiter: |
Anything for the dessert? |
John: |
Yes, please. Two fruit salads. And give us the bill please. |
Waiter: |
Do you need separate bills? |
John: |
No, thank you. |
