Приведем выдержку из задания из учебника Кауфман 9 класс, Титул: 11 Read the second conversation and answer the questions. 1. Did they reach a compromise? 2. What was the compromise? 3. What bridge builders did John and his parents use? 4. Did they use any bridge burners? Did it ruin everything? Why? / Why not? 5. How should one react to bridge burners? How shouldn’t one react to bridge burners? Do your parents understand you? Mom: Why don’t we just sit down and talk? Dad: OK. That’s a good idea. I think I’ve overreacted. So what was it about the pocket money then? John: Well, let me start by saying that this is very important to me. I have to admit that I lied to you because I didn’t know what to do. Dad: What happened? John: You didn’t give me any pocket money and you didn’t let me have a job either. So I decided to find myself a part-time job. All this time I’ve been working in McDonald’s, and on Fridays they always have a lot of customers. That’s why I was late. Mom: But that’s awful. Working in McDonald’s is a waste of time! John: Mom, please. It really upsets me when you say that. Mom: You’re right. I’m sorry. But why did you do that? John: Because I wanted to have my own money. Dad: But we buy everything you need. What haven’t you got? John: I didn’t want to ask you for money every time I needed something. Dad: I understand that, but we’ve never refused to give it to you. John: Yes, but I wanted to be more independent. It’s important for me to make my own decisions and plan how I’ll spend my money. Dad: That didn’t occur to me before. Mom: Your feelings are very important to us, but what about school? You’ve had a lot of bad marks in the last couple of months. Dad: Yes, it’s really not good enough. John: Please give me a second chance I really deserve it. I’ve never had bad marks before… you know that. Dad: I think we can reach a compromise. You can work three evenings a week — on Friday. Saturday and Sunday. What do you think? John: That’s great. Dad! And I will get better marks. I promise. *Цитирирование части задания со ссылкой на учебник производится исключительно в учебных целях для лучшего понимания разбора решения задания.
