Speaking 01
Describe a new job you have just started.
Firstly my main job is to type letters, answer the telephones and use the
computer a little.I meet
many people because I sitat the
front desk. I have work to do practically every minute so I have no time to
get bored.I like
the job because it is only five minutes' walk from my flat which means I
don't have toget up
too early in the morning!I have
to be there by 8.30 a.m. and I leave at 4.30 p.m.That
gives me the whole evening free which is
nice. The
other secretaries in the office seem very friendly. However, there is one
older womanwho
has been there for many years and seems to dislike young new workers. But I
am sureonce I
settle in, she and I will become friends.We
have a coffee-break around mid-morning when we can sit and chat for about
ten minutes.Two of
the girls are married and two are single, so there is quite a bit of
interesting gossip!The
work itself, is quite enjoyable and my boss seems a pleasant man. I hope I
shall be happy there.
Speaking 02 Talk
about EnglandI
would like to visit Britain very much because I have heard so much about it
frommy
teachers at school and I would like to see the country for myself.
London, the capital of England, is where I would like to start my visit. The
River Thamesflows
through London and there is a big bridge, Tower Bridge, over itwhich
lifts up for passing ships.Of
course, I would like to see Buckingham Palace, Big Ben and the Houses of
Parliament.In the
heart of London, is Piccadilly Circus, and not far away is the National
Gallery, andthe
famous Trafalgar Square with Nelson's Column in the centre. Here, too, are
thousandsof
pigeons which come to be fed by the tourists. I would like to go to the
shops in Oxford Street.I also
want to visit Hyde Park Corner where, on Sunday mornings, people stand on
boxes andgive
their ideas about politics, religion or whatever they want to talk about.Oxford
and Cambridge are famous for their old universities which are the best in
England.There
are special guides who can take visitors around the beautiful university
buildings.A town
not far from Oxford is Stratford-upon-Avon where the playwright William
Shakespearewas
born.There
are still houses from the 16th century here, including the house where he
lived.On the
River Avon stands the Royal Shakespeare Theatre where Shakespeare's plays
are performed.There
are so many things to see in England. I hope that one day I will go there.
