Releasing people from their obligations(I)

The boy doesn't want to do what his mother tells him to do. So he asks his grandmother if he really has to do. Boy: Gran, must I really wash my hands?

Grandmother: No, you needn't wash them if you don't want to. Boy: And must I really comb my hair?

Grandmother: No, you needn't comb it if you don't want to.

Releasing people from obligations (2)

This time the grandmother is going to say the same thing but in a different way.

Boy: Gran, must I really wash my hands?

Grandmother: No, you don't have to wash them if you don't

want to.

Boy: And must I really comb my hair?

Grandmother: No, you don't have to comb it if you don't want to.

XVIII There are always certain things which you mustn't do. These things depend on where you are or what you are doing For example, if you are in a hospital you mustn't make a lot of noise. If you are in a theatre you mustn't smoke, and so on. Look at the following situations and say what you mustn't do in each case

1. When you are training for a big sporting event... 2. When you are working in a library... 3. When there is a fire... 4. When you are driving through a town... 5. When you are travelling abroad... 6. When you are ill with flue...

Jenny: I could swim when I was three.

Martin: Really, Miss' Could you read and write when you were three?

Jenny: No, Martin.. of course I couldn't.

2. Luisa: Can you swim, Astrid?

Astrid: Yes, my parents taught me when I was four. I went swim­ming yesterday with Ali and because the weather was nice we were able to swim in the open air pool. It was rather crowded, of course, but I was still able to swim six or seven lengths before the usual crowds of children arrived. We couldn't swim much after that, so we just relaxed and enjoyed the sun. Can you swim well, Luisa?,,,

Luisa: Well, I couldn't when I was a child, but I can now.

//. Situation: Your friend and you are speaking about your abilities in different periods of your life.

Prompts: walk, speak, read, write, swim, ride a bicycle, skate, ski, sew, drive a car, dive, etc.

///. Listen to the texts, ask and answer questions, retell the texts:

1. Timmy Brown and all his brothers and sisters are very frustrated. The television broke yesterday while they were watching their favourite TVprogramme. Their parents called the TV repair­man, but he couldn't come yesterday. He was fixing televisions on the other side of the town. He can't come today either. And unfortunately, he won't be able to come tomorrow because he'll be out of town. Timmy Brown and his brothers and sisters are afraid they won't be able to watch TV for quite a while. That's why they are so frustrated.

2. Mrs. Murphy doesn't know what to do with her students today. They didn't do their homework last night and now she can't teach the lesson she prepared. Bob couldn't do his homework because he had a stomachache. Sally couldn't do her homework because she was very tired and fell asleep early. John couldn't do his homework because he had to visit his grandmother in the hospital. Donna couldn't do her homework because she had to take care of her baby sister while her mother worked late at the office. And all other students couldn't do their homework because there was a blackout in their neighbourhood last night. All the students promise Mrs Murphy they'll be able to do their homework tonight. She certainly hopes so.

I... suppose so, if you really think it's

necessary.

Mr. Kent: Thank you. We'll have to work about an hour's overti­me. That's all. (hangs up) Julia: (to herself, while dialling)

Oh, dear. Now I'll have to ring Jim and tell him. He won't like it. Jim: Hello? 26721.

Julia: Is that you, Jim? This is Julia. Look... I'm afraid I won't

be able to meet you at 7 this evening. I'll have to come later.

Jim: What? You mean you are going to be late again?

Julia: Now listen, Jim, please. It isn't my fault. I'll have to

work late this evening and then I'll have to go home. I can't possibly go to the restaurant straight from work!

Jim: It is always something, isn't it? When will you be able

to come then?

Julia: Don't worry. You won't have to wait long. I'll be there

at 8.

Jim: At 8? But we were going to a film after dinner. Remem-

ber?

Julia: I know... and it starts at 8.30. We'll just have to miss it

this evening, that's all. We'll be able to see it some other time.

Jim: Oh, no, we won't! Tonight's the last night!

Julia: Oh, dear... I suppose I'll just have to come straight

from work, that's all.

1. Jill: Why are you taking this course, Maria?

Maria: Well, I'm a secretary and I sometimes need English in

my job. I can read English well, but I write it badly.

I understand it easily but I can't speak it fluently. Jill: Do you have to write letters in English? Maria: Not often, but sometimes I have to speak English on

the telephone.

Jill: Do you have to write English shorthand? Maria: No, I don't.

Jill: Does your boss have to speak English? Maria: Yes, he does. He has to entertain English and American

visitors. But when they speak fast, he can't understand

them correctly.

2. Barbara: I worked very hard on that article on tourism, but

Mr. Short didn't like it.

Steve: Oh, dear, did you have to write it again?

Barbara: I had to change the entire second page!

Steve: Well, at least you didn't have to rewrite it comple­tely. I remember my first articles for Mr. Short.

I sometimes had to rewrite them two or three times from start to finish. So don't despair.

XII. Situation: Your friend and you are very busy people, you have a lot of things to do every day, you had a very busy day yesterday and you will be very busy tomorrow. At the moment you are speaking about your work.

XIII. Listen to the text "A Hard Life":

Jerry Floyd is talking to his grandfather about his new job: "It's terrible, granddad. I have to get up at 7 o'clock because I have to catch the bus to work Because I'm new, I have to make the tea. I have to work hard... I'm only happy at weekends: I don't have to work then".

His grandfather isn't very sympathetic:

"I had to start work when I was 14. 1 lived in South Wales, and there wasn't much work. I had to be a coal miner. We had to work twelve hours a day. We didn't have to work on Sundays... but we had to work the other six days of the week.

When I was eighteen, the First World War started. I joined the army. 1 had to wear a uniform, and I had to go to France. A lot of my friends died. We had to obey the officers, and we had to kill people. When I was sixty, I had to go into hospital because of the dust from the mines. It was the only quiet time in my life... I didn't have to work, I didn't have to earn money.

I retired when I was sixty-five. Nowadays I don't work and I don't have to get up early. But I have to live on my pension, and life is still difficult. I don't feel sorry for you".

Questions: Why does Jerry think his life is hard? Was his grandfather's life easy or hard? Why?
