Report the dialogues: A "You really are lucky not to have a mother," said Bridget, rather breathlessly as she took her friend into her bedroom and shut the door firmly. "I mean, Mummy's quite a pet and all that, but the questions she asks! Morning, noon, and night. Where are you going, and who have you met? And are they cousins of somebody else of the same name in Yorkshire! I mean, the futility of it all." "I suppose they have nothing else to think about," said Elvira vaguely. "Look here, Bridget, there's something terribly important, I've got to do, and you've got to help me." "Well, I will if I can. What is it—a man?" "No, it isn't, as a matter of fact." Bridget looked disappointed. "I've got to get away to Ireland for twenty-four hours or perhaps longer, and you've got to cover up for me." "To Ireland? Why?" "I can't tell you all about it now. There's no time. I've got to meet my guardian, Colonel Luscombe, at Prunier's for lunch at half-past one." B “I expect I shall manage. Cousin Mildred is fearfully easy to deceive. It's arranged I'm to come up for classes and things. There's a place called World of Today. They take you to lectures and to museums and to picture galleries and the House of Lords, and all that. The whole point is that nobody will know whether you're where you ought to be or not! We'll manage lots of things.” C "You're happy there?" "I don't know yet. I've barely got there. They're all very dull. I really wanted to know how much money I've got." "So it's financial information you really want?" "Yes," said Elvira. "I've got some money, I know. Is it a lot?" Egerton was serious now. "Yes," he said. "You've got a lot of money. Your father was a very rich man. You were his only child. When he died, the title and the estate went to a cousin. He didn't like the cousin, so he left all his personal property, which was considerable, to his daughter—to уоu, Elvira. You're a very rich woman, or will be, when you are twenty-one." "You mean I am not rich now?" "Yes," said Egerton, "you're rich now, but the money is not yours to dispose of until you are twenty-one or marry. Until that time it is in the hands of your trustees, Luscombe, myself and another." He smiled at her. "We haven't embezzled it or anything like that. It's still there. In fact, we've increased your capital considerably by investments." "How much will I have?" "At the age of twenty-one or upon your marriage, you will come into a sum which at a rough estimate would amount to six or seven hundred thousand pounds." "That is a lot," said Elvira, impressed. "Yes, it is a lot. Probably it is because it is such a lot, that nobody has ever talked to you about it much." D "Look, here, Freddie," he said, "I know the law and you don't. You're in a nasty jam. I'll do my best to get you out of it, but it's going to cost уоu a bit. I doubt if they'd settle for less than twelve thousand." "Twelve thousand!"The unfortunate Freddie was aghast "Oh, I say! I haven't got it, Richard." "Well, you'll have to raise it then. There are always ways and means. If she settles for twelve thousand, you'll be lucky, if you fight the case, it'll:cost you a lot more." "You lawyers!" said Freddie. "Sharks, all of you!" Articles with nouns denoting food. X. Analyze the use of articles with names of meals and food: 1. After a tea of turkey sandwiches, crumpets, trifle, and Christmas cake, everyone felt too full and sleepy to do much before bed except sit and watch Percy chase Fred George all over Gryffindor Tower because they'd stolen his prefect badge. 2. Well, get a move on, I want you to look after the bacon. 3. Uncle Vernon entered the kitchen as Harry was turning over the bacon. 4. Harry was frying eggs by the time Dudley arrived in the kitchen with his mother. 5. Harry put the plates of egg and bacon on the table, which was difficult as there wasn't much room. 6. This morning, however, she fluttered down between the marmalade and the sugar bowl and dropped a note on to Harry's plate. 7. At last, the puddings too disappeared and Professor Dumbledore got to his feet again. 8. Harry was going to ask Ron if he'd had any of the treacle tart, but fell asleep almost at once. 9. Great uncle Algie came round for tea... 10. Harry was rather quiet as he ate the ice-cream Hagrid had bought him (chocolate and raspberry with chopped nuts). 11. Next morning at breakfast everyone was rather quiet. 12. He managed to say, "Go-cupboard-stay-no meals," before he collapsed into a chair and Aunt Petunia had to run and get him a large brandy. 13. When everyone had eaten as much as he could, the remains of the food faded from the plates, leaving them sparkling clean as before. A moment later the puddings appeared. Blocks of ice-cream in every flavour you could think of, apple pies, treacle tarts, chocolate eclairs and jam doughnuts, strawberries, jelly, rice pudding... 14. As Harry helped himself to a treacle tart, the talk turned to their families. 15. As Harry and Ron walked back to the castle for dinner, their pockets weighed down with rock cakes they'd been too polite to refuse, Harry thought that none of the lessons he'd had so far had given him as much to think about as tea with Hagrid.

Grammar: Continuous Tense Forms. Adverbial Clauses of Time & Condition. Lead in: Before reading the text answer the following questions:
Englishmen and their Habits Most people in England work and study a five-day week from Monday to Friday and consequently rest from Friday evening till Monday morning. Everyone looks forward to the weekend and on Friday as people leave their offices, hospitals and colleges they wish each other a nice weekend. And on Monday morning they traditionally ask: “Did you have a nice weekend?” Many people leave towns and go to the countryside. Every Englishman is a countryman at heart. When he looks out of the window of his town flat he dreams of the time when he will live in a little cottage of his own with roses and honeysuckles in front of the house and small patches of soil with cucumber, tomato and cabbage in the kitchen garden behind and breathe in the fresh air of unpolluted countryside. Those who stay at home at the weekend try both to have a rest and catch up with all the jobs they fail to do during the week. Women do all kinds of things such as: washing, mending, cleaning, shopping and cooking; men do some odd jobs about the house, they may wash the car and do some gardening as well. Saturday morning is the best time for shopping as you can spend as much time on it as you want. As for Saturday evening it is the favourite time for organizing parties, going to the pictures, clubs or pubs. Pubs are special English institutions with characteristic traditional image: a low ceiling supported by old oak trunks, a burning fire and a bar. There is a general atmosphere of calmness and warmth there. Comfort is essential since people don’t come here just for a quick drink, they stay in the pub for some hours talking to friends, discussing local events and from time to time they take a sip – for Englishmen don’t swallow their drinks – and then put down the mug to continue the conversation. Every country has its drinking habits and its national drink. In England beer can be called the national drink. Having gone to bed late the night before, many people prefer a lie-in on Sunday morning. Some prefer to have breakfast in bed but it depends on the fact whether there is someone willing to prepare and serve it. While having breakfast Englishmen like to read Sunday papers. There are several of them published on Sunday, though they vary greatly in their ways of news presenting. There are serious papers for those who want to know about important events all over the world as well as domestic news. Alongside with these papers there are the so-called popular newspapers for those who prefer entertainment to information. If the weather is fine on Sunday, people may decide to go out and spend the day in the park. Londoners do not have to go far to find green lawns and flowers for London is rich in parks and gardens. But the weather in England is so changeable that it has become a favourite topic for discussion and tradition to start any conversation with different remarks about the weather.

Memory work THOSE EVENING BELLS Those evening bells, those evening bells. How many a tale their music tells. Of youth, and home, and that sweet time When last I heard their soothing chime. Those joyous hours are passed away; And many a heart that then was gay, Within the tomb now darkly dwells, And hears not more those evening bells. And so ‘twill be when I am gone: That tuneful peal will still ring on, While other bards will walk these dells, And sing your praise, sweet evening bells! Thomas Moore |
