12. This exercise is meant to develop your ability to hear and re­produce intonation in conversation.

a) Listen to the dialogue "About the Job" carefully, sentence by sen­tence. Write it down. Mark the stresses and tunes. The teacher will help you to correct your variant. Practise reading each sentence of your correct­ed variant after the cassette-recorder.

B) Record your reading. Play the recording back immediately for your teacher and your fellow-students to detect your errors. Practise the dialogue for test reading.

13. Make up conversational situations, using the following phrases:

He hasn't even got to ... yet.

That's my idea of ... .

Are you sure you don't want to be ...?

Is it my ... we're planning, or yours?

No, I'm sorry, ... but I... .

Look here.

All right, all right, there is no need to ... .

I really wanted to be ... .

I haven't made up my mind yet.

Maybe not.

Well, that's not the way I look at it.

You haven't answered my question yet.

I don't want to at all.
