Dialogue 1

• Hello, Nick! Did you have a good day?

• Not bad! The usual sort of things. Practical classes, lectures. You know.

• Did you try to take your English exam ahead of time?

• Well, I did. But the teacher advised me to get ready for English better.

• I see.

• After classes I went to the reading -room. It took me an hour to make an abstract of the paper recommended by our teacher of physics. And then Kate turned up. As usual.

• So, what did you do?

• We had a long talk.

• Oh, yes. What about?

• Oh, this and that. Things. You know. Then we had lunch.

• Where did you go? Somewhere nice?

• No, just the cafe round the corner. Then I returned to the university and stayed at the reading-room till 5 p.m.

• Sounds like a boring day.

• I don't think so. There is a very good proverb: "Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today"

• I think you are right.

Dialogue 2

Nick: Hello. How are things with you?

Oleg: Nice, thank you. And what about you? You look worried. What's up?

Nick: Well, nothing serious. Just studying. As you know I decided to become an engineer, but I didn't even accept a thought that would be so difficult.

Oleg: Surely. Any point of higher education demands labour. And becoming an engineer too.

Nick: That's it. I'm constantly trying to catch up with the group.

Oleg: The program is wide, isn't it?

Nick: Yes. We attend lectures on some subjects, have seminars and go to the library every day.

Oleg: I wonder what about physical education? Do you have any?

Nick: Yes, we usually do. It's a part of the curriculum. We are taught to play sport games to be in good form.

Oleg: That's really hard, I believe. And in how many years will you be a Bachelor of Science?

Nick: It takes you about 4 years to become a Bachelor of Science, but you may continue your studies and become a Master of Science, and even a post-graduate student.

Oleg: Now I see. Thank you. See you soon.
