Ответ

1. The phone call is informal. It sounds friendly and natural, with short everyday phrases and no very polite official language.
2. • More formally — talking to your headmaster, making an appointment at the dentist’s, calling your mother’s office.
   • Less formally — talking to your friend, talking to your granny.

   We speak more formally to people we do not know well or in official situations. We speak less formally to family and friends.
