Unit 28: I enjoy it

1. I enjoy making things.

Francis	Hello. Come in. The door's open. Hello, Brian.
Brian	Hello, Francis. What are you doing?
Francis	I'm making a bookcase. I like books. I like buying books and I enjoy reading them. But I don't want to buy a bookcase.
Brian	Why not?
Francis	Bookcases are expensive. And I enjoy making things. So, I'm making a bookcase.
Brian	Well, I'm playing tennis this afternoon. Would you like to play?
Francis	No, thanks. Not this afternoon. It's too cold and I'm busy. I'm making this bookcase.
Brian	You never play tennis.
Francis	Yes, I do. I sometimes play. But I prefer watching it.
Brian	I like tennis. I like playing tennis. I enjoy playing tennis.
Francis	I enjoy watching tennis. And I enjoy making things. Like this bookcase. It doesn't matter. I'll start again.

2. Brian is good at tennis.

Beryl	Who's winning? Brian or Peter?
Ann	Brian's winning.
Beryl	He usually wins. He's good at tennis. Peter isn't. Look!
Brian	Thanks, Beryl.
Ann	Peter plays well sometimes.
Beryl	He isn't playing well today. He's playing very badly. Where's Francis?
Ann	He's at home. He doesn't like playing tennis.
Beryl	He enjoys watching. He often comes here and watches.
Ann	And sometimes he plays tennis too. He played against Brian last week.
Beryl	Did Brian win?
Ann	Yes, he did. Francis isn't good at tennis, I'm afraid.
Beryl	Yes, Peter is better than Francis.
Peter	Well ... that's it. Why do you always win?
Brian	Because I'm better than you are, Peter. Did you enjoy the game?
Peter	Not much.
Brian	Why not?
Peter	Because you played well and I played badly. And I didn't enjoy playing badly.
Brian	Hahaha ...
Ann & Beryl	Hello.
Beryl	Brian played well.
Ann	Brian is good at tennis.
Beryl	Peter isn't good at tennis.
Ann	Brain played better than Peter.
Peter	Ann, what happened to your arm?
Ann	I broke it. In a game of hockey.
Beryl	Who did it?
Ann	Susan.
Peter	And what did you do?
Ann	I broke Susan's leg.
Beryl	You broke her leg?
Ann	Yes.
All	Hahaha ...

3. I want to make you an omelette.

Mary	Can I help you?
Peter	No, dear. It's your birthday today. So, I'll make the dinner. I want to cook dinner for you.
Mary	But I'd like to do it.
Peter	No. I want to make you an omelette. Would you like one with four eggs or five?
Mary	Two eggs will be enough. But I don't like omelette very much.
Peter	What do you want in your omelette? Cheese? Tomato?
Mary	I'd like plain omelette. Eggs and salt and pepper.
Peter	But it's your birthday! And you'll enjoy my omelette. There, cheese and tomato. Oh, did I put salt and pepper in the omelette? It doesn't matter. It's too late now. The omelette is ready. Your omelette. I'll make another omelette.
Mary	No, dear. Let's go to a restaurant.
