[-2:38.00]Question 1
[-2:39.00]On which day will they have the dinner party?
[-2:40.00]A:Mum,when do you think would be the best day for our dinner party?
[-2:41.00]B:Well,when is the last examination?
[-2:42.00]A:Most of the exams finish this Tuesday,the 17th,
[-2:43.00]but there are some music exams which go on until the 23rd
[-2:44.00]B:I think you'd better wait until after then.
[-2:45.00]And when is the end of term?
[-2:46.00]A:That's on Thursday,26th.
[-2:47.00]B:Well,why don't you have it on the Saturday night after that.
[-2:48.00]A:Yes,that would be good.
[-2:49.00]Question 2           How many students will probably attend the dinner?
[-2:50.00]A:Do you think all of you classmates will attend the dinner?
[-2:51.00]I know that is difficult to get people to come to the events.
[-2:52.00]Sometimes only half the total number will come.
[-2:53.00]B:Oh,I think most people will come.
[-2:54.00]At first I thought every single person would come,
[-2:55.00]but then I realized that some would be on holiday,
[-2:56.00]or might have other family dinners.
[-2:57.00]So then I thought only about a hundred might come.
[-2:58.00]Anyway I asked the class monitors to check with each class.
[-2:59.00]And they think that about 90% will turn up in the end.
[-3:00.00]A:Well,that would be a very good figure
[-3:-1.00]Question 3

[-3:-3.00]A:Did you ask Bely about making a video film?
[-3:-4.00]B:Yes,he said he would be delighted to do so.
[-3:-5.00]A:But,I don't know if we can afford it.
[-3:-6.00]Look at his prices on this card.
[-3:-7.00]$3,000 for a school event.
[-3:-8.00]B:No,that's for a full day,like a sports Day.
[-3:-9.00]Since he is our cousin,he said he would do it really cheaply.
[-3:10.00]He is prepare to make the film for half of his minimum price for a dinner party.
[-3:11.00]A:That's very good of him.
[-3:12.00]B:And afterwards he'll sell copies of the video
[-3:13.00]to your classmates for just $50 each.

[-3:17.00]A:So I was hoping your restaurant might be free on that night?
[-3:18.00]B:Well,yes.I suppose we could,you could come at 7 p.m.
[-3:19.00]but you would all have to leave by 9 p.m.
[-3:20.00]As we have another big party arriving later.
[-3:21.00]A:I see,and how much would it cost?
[-3:22.00]We're only students,so we can't afford an expensive meal.
[-3:23.00]B:Well,it would be our usual prices.
[-3:24.00]Our cheapest would be $120 for each person
[-3:25.00]A:120,right.I'll have to think about it.
[-3:26.00]B:Well,can you let me know by six o'clock tomorrow evening if you want to make a booking?
[-3:27.00]A:Right,I'll do that thanks very much. Good-bye.             B:Good-bye.

[-3:32.00]B:Oh,yes,that's right.Yes,we'd be please to help you
[-3:33.00]We would really enjoy having your school here.
