1.02 Задание 2. Задание на понимание в прослушанном тексте запрашиваемой информации

Emily: Hello, Sam. How are you? How was your first day of classes?

Sam: Hello, Emily. I am well. Classes this semester seem interesting, but I am sure they will be a lot of work, as always.

Emily: Yeah, mine look that way too. My history teacher told us that we will have to write four research papers by December, over, and we'll have five big tests. It's a good thing I like history. Sam: No kidding. I think my biology class will be the same way. Our teacher is very demanding. But with all the summer rest we've had, we should have enough energy, right?

Emily: Yes. By the way, Sam, how was your summer? Did you do anything special?

Sam: It was great. I spent two months at my grandparent's cottage on a lake. My grandfather is into fishing, so every day we went out on a boat with him. The weather was hot, so I was able to sunbathe and swim a lot. My friend was visiting his grandparents in the cottage next door, so we spent some time running around the countryside, climbing trees and picking wild berries. Emily: Sounds like a nice, relaxing summertime. I wish I had done the same. I envy you for having spent it outdoors because my summer wasn't nearly as active as yours.

Sam: Really? Why not? What did you do this summer?

Emily: I spent June on the couch in my flat, reading books and watching some boring TV shows. All my friends were gone by then, so I didn't even have anyone to go roller skating or bike riding with. Then in July I went to the seaside with my family. We visited Greece, but the sea was stormy most of the time, so we mostly did some sightseeing and shopping.

Sam: We swam only two times. The most exciting part of the trip was visiting the ruins of Athens. Emily: Wow! Did you see the famous Parthenon? Is it as beautiful as they told us in history class? Sam: Yes, it is very graceful, and the feeling of visiting such an ancient place is amazing. So I took a lot of pictures.

Emily: I would love to see them when you get the chance. Have you got them on your phone? Sam: No, I took them with my camera, so you can see them on my computer. I am also making a photo album of my trip to Greece. So when I'm finished, why don't you come over and look at it? Emily: I'd really like that, thanks. Let me know when it would be a good time to do that.

Sam: I will. I have to run now. Time to get some homework done.

Emily: Bye, Sam.

Sam: Bye, Emily.
