Activity 3

1. — He могли б ви мені допомогти?

— I would if I could... I've got a lot of work to do.

— Чим ви зайняті?

— I've got to answer a few business letters and translate two texts from English into

Ukrainian.

— Скільки часу вам знадобиться, щоб це зробити?

— It's hard to say. I believe I'll be busy till the end of the working day.

— О котрій годині ви звільнитеся?

— I'll be free at 6 o'clock in the evening.

— Можна, я підвезу вас додому?

— It'll be very kind of you.

— That's settled. Till 6 o'clock.

— Good-bye.

2. — Your colleague told me you've just returned from a business trip to Turkey. Is it true?

— Так. Минулого тижня я приїхав з Туреччини. Я пробув там два місяці.

— Did you learn to speak Turkish?

— Я знаю кілька слів. Дуже важко навчитися говорить іноземною мовою за два місяці.

— Do you really think so?

— Так, коли я їхав до Туреччини, я не знав жодного слова по-турецьки. У мене був перекладач (аn interpreter). Він відмінно знає мову.

— That's a horse of another color.

3. — Послухай, Майк, для тебе є записка.

— Yes, what is it?

— Ця записка від містера Міллера. Він дзвонив, коли тебе не було.

— Thank you very much. Mr. Miller wants us to help him with the contract.

— Ми можемо це зробити?

— I think so. I'll have to talk it over with our chief. Is he in?

— Так, але він дуже зайнятий. В даний момент він приймає представників однієї з іноземних фірм.

— I hear you have moved to a new apartment, Steve. Is it true?

— Yes, it is. One of these days well arrange a housewarming party. And I want you

and your wife Carol to be present.

— Thank you for the invitation. How do you like your new apartment?

— It is very comfortable. It is a three bedroom apartment with modern

conveniences: electric stove and a lot of built-in-cupboards.

— On what floor is it?

— Our apartment is on the tenth floor of a high-rise dwelling house. We've got two

elevators which work round o'clock.

— Is it far from the center of the city?

— Rather. It takes me about an hour to get to the center by bus and by metro. If I

drive a car, it takes me thirty minutes.

— I see. Have you bought new furniture?

— We’ve bought wall units, two armchairs and a new icebox. We are planning to

buy two carpets and a dining set.

— Good luck!

— Thanks. Are you going to move to a new apartment?

— No, I am not. We have been living in our two-room apartment for about eight

years and we don't want to move anywhere.

— Your apartment is comfortable, isn't it?

— Yes, very. My wife arranged everything very nicely and I like it very much. We

don't have much furniture, but we have got everything we need.

— I am glad to hear it.
