Airport Stories

I m going to look for a job. Maybe as an au pair,

looking after children. And I want to improve

my English too, so I can get a better job when

I go back home. I hope I can find some work

quickly, because I dont have much money.

1 Is this your fi rst visit?

Yes, it is. I m really looking forward to l iving

here, but I m a bit nervous too.

2 _

Six months or a year. It depends how things go.

3 _

Yes,

I have a friend who s working here in a

restaurant. I m going to stay with her for a few

weeks until I can find my own flat .

Well, good luck

A FAMILY REUNION

Jonathan, 35 just arrived

from Melbourne, Australia

I m going to see my Dad in Wales.

It s his seventieth birthday tomorrow.

4 _

No. It s going to be a big surprise for him. And it s going to be very

emot ional too. I moved to Australia in 1990, and the last time I saw

my Dad was five years ago. It s too expensive to visit very often and

my father cant fly - he had a heart operation last year.

5 _

By train. All the family are waiting at my parents house. We re going

to have a big party there tomorrow night.

6 _

Yes, for a month. It s too far to come for a short time - and I want

to see all my old friends here as well as my family.
