Путешествие в Таррагону. Часть 1

JOHN: Hi, Alice, it’s John. How are you? 
ALICE: Oh, hi, John! I was just thinking about you.
JOHN: That’s nice. I was wondering if you’d like to go to a 
movie tonight.
ALICE: Sure, I’d love to! What’s playing?
JOHN: I was thinking about that new comedy Lights Out. What do
you think?
ALICE: Sounds great!
JOHN: OK, I’ll pick you up around 7:30. The movie starts at 8:00.
ALICE: See you then. Bye!



LANGUAGE NOTES
• Hi, Alice, it’s John: Hi, ____, it’s ____ is a casual and friendly way to say hello on the 
phone. Although “it’s” means “it is,” it is used to mean “I am” here.
• Oh, hi, John! Notice the rising intonation here. Alice is excited to hear from John and is 
very pleased that he called her.
• I was wondering if you’d like to ... This is a polite and indirect way of asking “Do you 
want to …?” John is nervous and does not want to appear too direct or bold. Notice 
how the question goes up at the end, which shows that he is not overly confident.
• Sure! I’d love to means “Yes, I would love to.” Notice that Alice is very enthusiastic 
and friendly. She wants John to feel comfortable about asking her out on a date.
• I was thinking about … / What do you think? Again, John does not want to appear 
too bold. He wants to give Alice a chance to suggest a movie.
• Sounds great! Is an informal way of saying “That is a good plan.”
• I’ll pick you up is an informal way of saying “I’ll come to your house so that we can 
go together.”

德商银行经济学家表示，最近，欧元看起来更有吸引力了。自11月初以来欧元兑美元的复苏可能主要是由于美元的修正。然而，对欧元的负面观点也越来越缺乏说服力。昨日公布的Ifo指数进一步证明，欧元区经济状况正在逐步改善。但经济学家仍警告称，要警惕对欧元过度乐观的态度，因为能源危机的风险仍存。因此，有限的风险溢价似乎是合理的

NOVEMBER COMPETITION!
We all know how difficult it can be to stay motivated when learning languages, so this month, English In A Teacup is holding a little competition for its listeners. The winners of the competition will get a personal shout out on the podcast and will also get to decide the next topic for Season 2 of my podcast coming out in December. 
To join, send me a message on italki and I will send you the form to fill in. 
In this week's episode of English In A Teacup, we will be continuing with the topic of inversions as well as learning how to write letters.  For students preparing for advanced-level exams (CAE, CPE, IELTS, etc.), it is important to know about inversion and how to use it in the writing sections. To help us with the subject is our fine English lady, Miss Finesstocrat, who will be writing her own letter to a travel agency to complain about her holiday from hell. How did she get on? Let’s put the kettle on and find out!
