Homework Task 1. Read the dialogue. The sentences do not contain heads or tails. Rewrite them with heads and tails. TheNew Roommate Maria: Hi... Kate, right? I’m Maria. Kate: Nice to meet you in person. Maria: Come on in home... take a look around. Kate: Wow, this place is really nice! It is a Big, a light room and the air is so neat! Maria: Yeah, I’m kind of a neatnik. Kate: Oh, I know what you mean. I’m totally the same way. Maria: Really? Kate: Yeah, I just can’t stand it when people leave their stuff all over the place, or, you know, leave dirty dishes in the sink. Maria: That’s great to hear! So, have a seat. Can I get you anything to drink? Kate: Oh, no thanks. I stopped for coffee on the way here. So, how long have you been looking for a new roommate? Maria: Oh, for a couple of weeks or so. I’ve talked to about five people, but no one has seemed quite right.So, in your profile you said you’re new to the city, right? Kate: Yeah, I lost my job a few months ago. I couldn’t find another job near where I lived, so I decided to take a job in a different city. At first I was pretty upset about losing my job, but then I got a lucky break. Losing my job was one of the biggest challenges I’ve ever faced, but it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me. Maria: Well that’s great! I’m still looking for a job. I’m not really sure what I want to do… Kate: I’m sure you’ll figure it out. Maria: Yeah. I hope so.So,did you live with roommates before, or your parents, or... Kate: Yeah, I lived with a couple of roommates. I got along great with one of them. But the other... well... she was basically a nice person, but we were just really different. Maria: Oh? In what way? Kate: Well,like I said, I’m really neat, and she was pretty messy. And she was noisy... you know,she was always watching TV and talking on the phone and having her friends over. She justreally got on my nerves. Maria: Oh no! I can’t stand messy people. Did you hear about the woman who sued her roommate? Kate: No. What happened? Maria: Apparently, the woman had asked her roommate to clean up. She never did. The house got so messy that the woman sued her roommate. Kate: What a nightmare! Maria: Yeah, I hear you. I’m lucky... my old roommate was wonderful. The only thing that bugged me about her was that she was always late. Kate: Oh, I hate it when people are late! I always try to be on time. A lot of times I arrive at places early, actually. Maria: So, it sounds like we’re the perfect match! When can you move in? [Later that day…] Maria: Okay, so Tom, you’re not going to believe this... Tom: What happened? Maria: Well I just got home, and Kate’s not here, and...well, just take a look at this. Tom: Wow. Oh, no. Maria: Yeah! Kate said she was really neat! What am I going to do? Tom: Well, uh, you might want to consider the direct approach. You know, just confront her about it when she gets home. Maria: I don’t know... Do you really think that’s a good idea? I mean, she just moved in. I’m not sure how she’d react... it could be pretty awkward. Task 2. Write the summary of your own understanding of the interview watched before.
