1. Fill the gaps:

-How many cars are in this city?

-It is easy to say that there are cars. But there are not parking places.

-That’s why I don’t go to work by car. There is traffic, traffic lights, and it is hard to find a parking place.

-How much is that phone? -It’s 300 euro.

-Oh, this is . It is expensive for me. I haven’t got money to buy it. Do you have a cheaper one?

-This one is only 100. I think it is cheap .

-Perfect! The more expensive one has functions anyway.

-How is your coffee?

-It is not strong . And it’s sweet; there is sugar in it. And how is yours?

-Mine is bitter. It doesn’t have sugar. There aren’t places where you can have a good coffee!

-Whose toys are these?

-They are my brother’s. He has toys and they take out space. But he always says he doesn’t have toys. He is spoiled. I don’t have toys, but they are for me.

-Whom did you call?

-I called my sister, but she was busy to talk. She said she has work to do, reports to write, and not time to finish it all.

-And does she get money for her work?

-No, she doesn’t. She is not paid .

-What is the minimum height for this roller-coaster? It’s 1,20m.

-Peter is taller than 1,20m. He is tall to get on it. Paul is shorter than 1,20m. He isn’t tall . He is short for this attraction. There are not attractions for little children here.

-How old are your daughters?

-Maria just turned 18.

-Oh, she is old to make her own decisions.

-Yes, but she isn’t confident to do it. She is insecure. Jane is younger, she is 14 years old. She is very confident, but also immature. She is still young.

-What is the weather like in your country?

-It’s rainy. There are rainy days and there are not sunny days. The weather isn’t sunny .

-Here the weather is cold in winter and one needs to put on clothes. In summer it is hot. And we never get rain.

-How was your holiday?

-It was terrible. The hotel was crowded and noisy, the room was small, and the walls were thin. I couldn’t get rest because there were teenagers making noise. The music was loud. There wasn’t food at lunchtime and…

-Eh, I think you make drama about it!

-Is he sober to go home?

-No, he isn’t sober . He is still drunk. He had cocktails.

-Yes, I told him he had drinks, but he didn’t listen to me. He is drinking alcohol these days...

-Where do you want to go tonight?

-I don’t know, we don’t have options. There are not bars in this little town. I don’t want to stay late anyway, because I have to wake up early. And I had partying last week.

-Why don’t you bake a cake today?

-I don’t have flour; I forgot to buy. Last week I made cookies and cupcakes. But I misread the cookie recipe and I used flour and not eggs.

-Yes, the cookies were tough to eat…

-Who turned the TV volume up? It is high. Turn it down, please. decibels aren’t good for your ears.

-But, Mom, when the volume is low I can’t hear clear what they’re saying.

-Well, maybe you should turn the TV off. You watch TV anyway and I think you’ve had cartoons for today.
