1. CONVERSATION
Ann:Do you like travelling?
BilhYes, I like travelling very much. It is my hobby.
I always take my camera with me
and take pictures of everything that interests me: the
ruins of ancient buildings, the sights
of cities, views of mountains, lakes, valleys,
waterfalls and even animals and birds.
Ann: What countries have you visited?
Bill:Well, I have been to Italy, Greece, Russia and
India. Some day I will go to the
United States. My cousin lives there. She has invited
me several times already. When I
have enough money, I will go to the States.
Ann:I have never been to any of these countries. When
were you in Russia?
Bill:Two years ago.
Ann:Did you go there alone?
Bill:No, I went there with my father. We visited
Moscow and St Petersburg, the most
beautiful cities of Russia.
Ann:I have always wanted to travel to other countries,
but I haven't had the opportunity. I
went to Germany in my childhood, but I haven't been
anywhere since then.
