                                                          John      Hey, Daddy, how is everything?
          Adam   Bob, what is your favorite free time activity?  John’s Dad  Not bad, John.
          Bob    It’s cycling. I love it!                 John      Guess what! I’m off for a couple of days and I will
          Adam   That’s nice. How often do you do it?               visit you.
          Bob    Almost every day. I start my day with cycling and feel   John’s Dad  Oh, great! That’s a nice surprise. So, what is the
                 fantastic all day long.                            date of your flight?
          Adam   Why do you like it?                      John      Next Wednesday. 7  March. Can you pick me up at
                                                                                 th
          Bob    Because I believe it’s  good for my health and it’s     the airport?
                 environment-friendly. I’m also fond of nature.  John’s Dad  Sure, with pleasure. What about the time?
          Adam   Oh, I see.                               John      Well, the departure here is at 6:15 p.m. and the
          Bob    What about you? Do you like outdoor activities?    arrival is two hours later, at 8:15 p.m.
          Adam   I suppose, I don’t prefer being physically active.  John’s Dad  Then, I should be at the airport at around 8 o’clock.
          Bob    Come on Adam! Exercising is very important for health.     Just in case you arrive earlier.
          Adam   I’m sure, it is. However, I prefer staying at home and   John  And... Please do not tell anything to mommy.
                 reading.                                                       Let’s make a surprise.
          Bob    So, you like indoor activities, then. Are you interested in   John’s Dad  OK. I won’t. Don’t worry. I can’t wait, John.
                 doing origami, collecting stamps or cooking?  John  Time flies, daddy. You know it.
          Adam   No. I think, they are a waste of time!   John’s Dad  It does, it does.
          Bob    I’m  sorry, but  I  don’t  agree with  you. Cooking is   Tapescript 3.3.1
                 relaxing.
          Adam   Why don’t you cook and invite me for dinner tomorrow?  Joe   Hi,  guys. I  need your answers for a survey on your
          Bob    Oh, I’d love to. It’ll be my pleasure!           preferences. What kind of clothes do you prefer?
          Adam   Well, see you tomorrow, then.                    What sort of music would you rather listen to?
          Bob    See you Adam, bye.                       Mike    Well.. I prefer casual clothes to formal clothes. I usually
          Tapescript 3.1.2                                        wear jeans, T-shirts and sneakers. I’d rather listen to
                                                                  pop music than rock. I think rock music is unbearable.
          1  Tom  What time is it Mary?                   Joe     Thank you, Mike. So, what about you, Ted?
            Mary  Rr… It’s eight thirty-two.              Ted     Unlike Mike, I prefer wearing formal clothes because I
            Tom  Thanks.                                          like being stylish and I want to look impressive. As for
          2  Susan  What date is it today?                        music, I can’t stand rock music, either. I’d prefer to
            Sally  It’s June the second.                          listen to classical music because I think it is relaxing.
            Susan  Thank you.                             Joe     Thanks, Ted. What are your preferences, Sarah?
          3  Tim   What’s the time, guys?                 Sarah   Actually, I never  listen to classical or pop music.
            Bill  Twenty to four.                                 Personally, my choice is listening to rock music. It is
            Tim  Oh, we are late.                                  an energizer. Like Mike, I‘d sooner wear casual clothes
          4  Sofie  When is the final exam?                       than formal ones.
            Laura  It’s next week. On the fourteenth of July.  Joe   Thank you all, guys. Catch you later.
            Sofie  Good. We have plenty of time.
