Лекция: Walking in Cambridge

Mrs. Hunt Didn't you drive past King's College when you went to the conference yesterday?

Mr. Hunt Yes, we did, but we drove past it very fast. Let's walk today. I always prefer walking to driving.

Mrs. Hunt Yes, so do I, but I get tired very easily.

Mr. Hunt If you get tired today, we'll catch a bus. Aren't we there now? I can see King's College Chapel.

Mrs. Hunt Oh yes. That's the back of it. Don't you think we ought to walk round to the front?

Mr. Hunt Yes, let's walk through the college. Mrs. Hunt Then if we go left, we'll be in Trinity Street.

Mr. Hunt Yes and when we get to the end of Trinity Street, we'll turn right. Then we can walk straight to St. John's College.

Mrs. Hunt No, look at the map. When we get to the end of Trinity Street, we'll be outside St.

John's. It seems as if our plan'll be perfect.

The Senate House

Mrs. Hunt Do you know what that building is? The one with the flag on top.

Mr. Hunt Isn't that Clare College?

Mrs. Hunt No, we walked past Clare College earlier, so it can't be that. Let's look at the map.

Mr. Hunt It's the Senate House, isn't it?

Mrs. Hunt Don't you think it looks Roman?

Mr. Hunt No, it looks more like eighteenth-century English.

Mrs. Hunt Shall we go inside?

Mr. Hunt It’s closed, so we can't.

Mrs. Hunt Can't we go inside the university church, either?

Mr. Hunt Yes, we can but we'll have to hurry. Remember, we intended to meet the Tates at half past one (1.30).

Mrs. Hunt Oh yes. If we hurry, we'll be on time.

Studying

Mrs. Slade John! Where are you?

John I'm upstairs.

Mrs. Slade What are you doing?

John I'm watching television.

Mrs. Slade Come downstairs immediately. I want you to do your studying.

John I prefer watching television, Mum.

Mrs. Slade It's much too early to watch television.

John But I don't like studying, Mum.

Mrs. Slade Don't you want to go to university?

John Yes, Mum. Oh all right, I'll go into the back room.

The lake

Harry Shall we dance?

Judy What a good idea! Thank you.

Harry Let's go to the front by the group.

Judy All right. But it looks as if it's very crowded there.

Harry Well, if you get hot or tired, we'll go outside. It's very nice by the lake.

Judy Let's stay inside.
