Текст аудирования:
Kelly: OK, what shall we do tonight?
Brendan: Don’t know, Kelly. What’s on?
Kelly: Anything you want, Brendan. We’re in London, remember!
Sebastian: How about going to the opera? Madame Butterfly’s on, and that’s …
Brendan: The opera?! You must be joking, Sebastian! Nobody goes to the opera these days.
Sebastian: What do you mean nobody goes to the opera? Come off it, Brendan! Are you saying that every time there’s an opera, the theatre is empty?
Brendan: No, of course not. Let me put it another way. Nobody under the age of 25 goes to the opera. Sebastian: That’s not true! I go to the opera. I love it!
Brendan: Well, you do, Sebastian, but you’re the exception that proves the rule. What do you think, Kelly?
Kelly: Sorry, Brendan, I wasn’t listening. Do you think you could repeat that?
Brendan: Sure. Do you think that young people go to the opera?
Kelly: Well, yes and no.
Sebastian: I’m not sure what you mean.
Kelly: The thing is that some young people go, but it’s not as popular as clubbing or concerts or the cinema or even the theatre, is it?
Sebastian: Well, no, that’s a good point Kelly, but if young people knew how good it was, they would go more often. The problem is …
Brendan: OK, Sebastian, but…
Sebastian: Just a second, Brendan! I haven’t finished. The problem is that schools don’t do enough to teach young people about opera. And another thing …
Brendan: OK, but …
Kelly: I think the main problem with the opera is that it’s too expensive. Have you seen how much these seats cost?
Sebastian: Yeah, OK, Kelly, you’re right, but there are student discounts, you know.
Brendan: Excuse me, can I say something?
Sebastian: Yeah, sorry. Why don’t you tell us what you think, Brendan?
Brendan: Thank you, Sebastian. I don’t think that money is the main problem. I think it’s that operas are boring. They’re too …
Sebastian: Oh come on! Have you ever…
Brendan: Hold on, Sebastian! Let me finish! Operas are too long! Some of them last more than four hours!
Sebastian: Do you mean that young people are stupid?
Brendan: No, what I mean is that most young people today want instant fun. They don’t want to wait four hours for anything. We’re talking about the MTV generation here. Do you see what I mean?
Sebastian: Yes, OK, Brendan. You’ve got a point.
Kelly: Do you know what I find strange about operas?
Sebastian: No, what?
Kelly: It’s that people burst into song all the time.
Brendan: I’m sorry, Kelly, I didn’t get that. Could you say it again?
Kelly: Yeah, operas are like musicals in the cinema. People sing to each other instead of talking. It’s very odd. I mean, can you imagine if we did that all the time?
Brendan: Let’s see a film. I’ll see you at nine.
Sebastian: And then we can have a pizza at mine.
