Beginner:

A:Is everything ready for Billy’s birthday party?

B:Yes,I finished making the birthday cake and I’ve put all the things on the table.Did you find the party hats?

A:Yes,I did.I’ve put one on the table for each child.I put up the big”Happy Birthday”sign too.

B:Thanks!Do you think we have enough for the kids to eat and drink?

A:I’m sure that there’s enough food here to feed an army!

B:That birthday cake looks wonderful,but you haven’t put any candles on it yet.

A:Thanks for reminding me.I’ve prepared some party games for the children too.

B:I’ve brought a tape with lots of children’s songs on it.

A:Hopefully, that will keep everyone happy.

Intermediate:

A:How should we commemorate the centenary of the founding of the university.We have been given quite a large budget to pay for some events.

B:We should certainly hold a big party for professors and students.We could have a firework display.

A:Do you think that we should invite alumni and former professors?

B:If we do,too many people might attend.Perhaps we should invite all of them,but make a small charge to attend.

A:Good idea!We should also hold a series of presentations.We could have presentations on the history of the university,the courses we offer,and our links wth other universities.

B:Good idea!I think we should also have presentations by former students on how their experience here helped them in their lives.

A:We could have another on the successes of graduates from here.

B:I think that we could also produce some merchandise for the centenary,you know, T-shirts, mugs, plates, pens, and things like that.

A:That’s an excellent idea!Hopefully, we would be able to make a profit. A few professors and students are writing a book on the history of the university.

B:I’m looking forward to reading that.We could have book signings by famous professors and alumni.

A:A group of students from the art and music faculty are producing a short film.

B:I’m sure that will be very popular.Ok,let’s think about how we can put these ideas into practice.
