Dialogue 5 :

Brian: The opponent plays well! Their fast offender is very dangerous He aims very

precisely and shoots very hard

Linda: Our team is not bad either Our goalkeeper keeps the ball very safe

Brian: Exactly, you know this game very well! Would you like to have a delicious hot

dog?

Linda: Yes, together with a cold beer That would be fantastic

Brian: I will bring you a beer

Linda: Hurry up, because our good sweeper hurt himself

Brian: Here is your beer It is actually warm

Linda: And the hot dog is cold Hahaha It looks good though, and hmmmm

tastes very good too! A wonderful goal has been scored Unfortunately for the

opposing team

Brian: Oh, I don’t know if we have a chance The opponent plays very hard and fast

It is getting very difficult

Linda: It does not seem to be easy, because our best defender seriously hurt

himself

Brian: But our team must win, otherwise they cannot play in the World Cup We

cannot give the opponent so many chances

Linda: The coach should bring in a new player Our midfield players cannot run

anymore

Lesson

Brian: You might be quite right He is still allowed to exchange another player in I would bring in a younger player!

Linda: May I have another sip of beer?

Brian: Of course Oh, no! That can’t be! 0:2! I think we should go!

Linda: Yes me too I should not stay out so late tonight I have to watch out for my little sister!
