Making suggestion

a) How to ask for a suggestion

would like to do tonight?

What about

Shall we

Why don’t we spend the weekend in the country?

Let’s

c) How to accept a suggestion

that would be nice.

That seems all right.

No, I’m afraid I can’t.

I’m sorry I can’t.

I don’t really feel like.

Well, I’d rather not.

e) How to make a counter-suggestion

I’d prefer to go to the exhibition (bar, disco).

Make up dialogues. One of you suggests doing something. The other agrees. Use the model.

Model:

· Let’s go out for a meal.

· Why not. But if we won’t go anywhere too expensive.

You suggest:

1. having a rest at home

2. going to a picnic in the woods

3. staying at home and watching TV

4. going to a disco

5. playing some game (e.g. cards)

6. going fishing

7. having a party.

Work in groups

14. Read a conversation about simple pleasures. Which one do you find strange? Why?

А.: Do you have any simple pleasures that you enjoy?

B.: Oh, for me, one of the simplest and most pleasurable activities is making bread. Because I love the slowness of it, and I love the feeling of the dough. And I love the fact that you have to wait. The bread takes its own time. And I love the smell.

A.: What about you?

C.: Well, there is nothing quite like building a brick wall.

A.: Oh, you are a builder!

C.: No, I’m not. But it is very simple. It’s very straight-forward. When you build a wall and it’s straight, it’s one of the greatest pleasures on earth, I think.

A.: Well, my pleasure is waking up at 8 o’clock and knowing that I don’t actually have to get up until 9.30 and going back to sleep. That’s a joy!
