XX. Act out the following situation.
A group of Russian students arrives in London on an exchange programme. They decide to make a tour of London the very first Saturday. Only the group leader knows London as it is her/his third visit to the capital of Great Britain. The students know quite a lot about London from books and they are looking forward to seeing everything with their own eyes, But their interests are totally different and it takes them time to come to an agreement.
ROLES:
Student 1 cares for painting;
Student 2 is interested in historical monuments;
