SCHOOLING
2.
Alice: Where were you yesterday?
Betty: I had a lesson.
Alice: What kind of lesson?
Betty: I’m taking private dancing lessons.
Alice: Dancing lessons! I thought you hated dancing.
Betty: That’s true.
Alice: So why are you taking lessons?
Betty: I want to impress this really cute boy I met. He’s a wonderful dancer and somebody told me he only likes girls who can dance.
Alice: So what do you do at your lesson?
Betty: We learn different dances – the waltz, the tango, stuff like that.
Alice: How long does your lesson last?
Betty: About an hour, but sometimes we forget to stop because it is so much fun.
Alice: So now you like dancing?
Betty: No, I still hate it but at least I’m learning about that boy.
Training 3
Betty: “Yesterday I was busy in the evening because I had a lesson. I completely forgot that I had promised Alice to phone her. So now I have to explain everything to her. I’ve told her that I’m taking private dancing lessons at the moment. Actually, she knows I don’t really like dancing. I only want to learn to dance beautifully because I like a boy who is a wonderful dancer. And you can’t go out with a dancer if you can’t dance at all, can you? Besides, somebody told me Greg only likes girls who can dance well. Naturally, I want to impress him. A dancing lesson lasts an hour. But sometimes we forget to stop because it’s so much fun. For example, yesterday we danced for two hours! We learn different dances there like the waltz, the tango, stuff like that. I still don’t like dancing. But Greg is there, too and at least I am learning everything about him!”
