Post-viewing

Work in pairs. Make up dialogues according to the following situations.

  1. You are going to attend an exposition in London next month. Phone the booking office of an airline to reserve a ticket for the travel.
  2. You are flying to Melbourne on business. Now you are at the check-in counter, waiting to check in. Your partner plays the role of the check-in agent. Change the roles when you have completed one round of practice.
  3. You work in a company which specialises in producing video cameras. You have been invited by one of your business associates to attend a trade exhibition in their country. As well as some personal belongings like clothes and a laptop computer, you have brought with you a video camera (which is dutiable) as a sample. Now you are going through customs. Design a dialogue between you and the customs officer.
