SAMPLE CONVERSATION

Student: Hello, Nicolas / Nicole. It's nice to see you.

Interlocutor: Hi! I'm glad to see you, too.

Student: Have you taken the end-of-course test yet?

Interlocutor: Yes, I have. But I don't know my grade yet. And have you taken yours?

Student: Not yet. We are taking it tomorrow, at nine o'clock sharp.

Interlocutor: I see. I actually prefer oral exams to taking written tests. And you?

Student: I prefer taking written tests.

Interlocutor: Why?

Student: I usually feel very nervous when I have to talk in an exam. I often forget everything I know and that's why I usually get lower grades than I actually deserve. But when we take written tests, I have enough time to calm down and to remember everything.

Interlocutor: Yes, I see your point. And what school subject do you find the most difficult?

Student: Physics and Maths. I'm not very good at remembering figures and I make mistakes in calculations. It's also difficult to understand and remember some processes in Physics.

Interlocutor: And how do you feel about tomorrow's test? Are you very worried?

Student: No, not really. I think I'm ready for it.

Interlocutor: How about a little party then? We want to celebrate the end of the course. Will you come?

Student: Thank you, but not tonight. I want to get to bed early and have a good sleep before the test.

Interlocutor: OK, I understand. Good luck with the test.

Student: Thank you. See you tomorrow.

Interlocutor: See you.
