“Sightseeing Tours Around Town – Script”


Listening Exercise

Listen to the recording on travel and city tours, and read along with the conversation.

Man: So, what do you wanna [want to] do tomorrow?

Woman: Well, let’s look at this city guide here. [Okay.] Uh, here’s something interesting. [Oh!] Why don’t we first visit the art museum in the morning?

Man: Okay. I like that idea. And, uh, where do you want to eat lunch?

Woman: How about going to an Indian restaurant? [Hmm.] The guide recommends one downtown a few blocks from the museum.

Man: Now, that sounds great. And after that, what do you think about visiting the zoo? [Umm . . . well . . .] Well, it says here that there are some very unique animals not found anywhere else.

Woman: Well, to tell you the truth, I’m not really interested in going there. [Really?] Yeah. Why don’t we go shopping instead? There’s supposed to be some really nice places to pick up souvenirs.

Man: Nah, I don’t think that’s a good idea. We only have a few traveler’s checks left, and I only have fifty dollars left in cash.

Woman: No problem. We can use YOUR credit card to pay for MY new clothes.

Man: Oh, no. I remember the last time you used MY credit card for YOUR purchases.

Woman: Oh well. Let’s take the subway down to the seashore and walk along the beach.

Man: Now that sounds like a wonderful plan.
