3 Listening and speaking. Promises, promises.

A Listen to Mike and Jill organizing a class reunion. What does each of them say they’ll do? Complete the sentences.

Are we going to have a class reunion again this year?

Oh, yeah, sure.

But last year, it wasn’t so great. I mean, not many people came.

Yeah, but that’s because we just called everyone the day before! If we call everyone earlier, more people will be able to come.

All right. Well, it’s only a month away, so we should start organizing it.

OK. So I’ll call or e-mail everyone this week. I still have the list from last year.

OK. Do you want to have the reunion in the park again?

Yeah. And this time, I’ll remember to bring the barbecue stuff. I promise!

Good. Last year, we couldn’t cook anything.

I know, I know. And if I forget, then we’ll just have to eat potato chips and salad like last year!

Yeah, right! Well, let’s think about the food.

Well, I’ll order the food online, our local grocery store delivers right to your house.

Huh. That’s convenient. Well, good.

Yeah, and I’ll pay with my credit card, and then everyone can give me $10 or something for the food.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

OK, thanks. OK, well, if you organize the food, I’ll do the cooking.

Well, all right. I guess.

What’s wrong with that?

Well, when you had a barbecue last month, you burned everything. Remember?

Oh, come on! I don’t usually do that. OK, I’ll try not to burn anything.

All right. What else? Oh, I know, would you mind bringing your digital camera again? Then we can take photos of everyone and e-mail them.

I won’t forget that, I promise, and I’ll bring my CD player, too.

OK, but please don’t bring any folk music this time. Bring something everyone will like, like rock or pop or something.

OK. Well, I guess that’s it, then. It’ll be fun.

Yeah. Let’s just hope everyone comes this year!
