Task 1
People are talking about how they celebrate their birthdays. Do they stay home or go out? Check the correct answer.
1.
My best friend usually takes me out to dinner. We've been doing this since we were in high school, and it's lots of fun. She pays for the meal, but I don't let her buy me a present. Instead, I buy myself a present! That way I always get something I really want.
2.
I usually invite my classmates to go out and party with me. About 10 of us get together. We start out at a restaurant, and then we go downtown. Last year we went to six different clubs in one night. It was wild' It's the one time a year when my parents don't care if I stay out late.
3.
My two children always take me out to a restaurant for dinner. I'm glad they do that instead of spending a lot of money on presents. They're still in school, so they can't afford to buy expensive gifts.
4.
I always celebrated my birthday when I was younger. I'd have a big party and invite everyone I knew. Sometimes I'd have more than 50 people at my place. Those were the days' I don't do anything like that anymore. Since I turned 35, I'd rather not remind myself that I'm a year older. Now I just have a nice dinner at home with my family.
5.
My parents let me invite all my friends over to my house for a party. Usually I have about 25 people ov'er. We always have a lot of fun opening presents, watching videos, and singing along to the radio-stuff like that. My parents are great. They stay upstairs, and they don't bother us.
6.
Well, I always have a quiet birthday at home with my husband, George. He takes over the kitchen for the day and bakes a nice cake for me. I prefer that to going out to a restaurant.

Task 1
People are talking about special days. Do they like or dislike each day? Check the correct answer.
1.
I'm a big fan of Valentine's Day. It's one of my favorite days of the year. I love opening and reading those cards and trying to guess who they're from. And last year I got a real valentine, too-you know, from someone who really liked me. That was so romantic.
2.
I don't know why people still play tricks on April Fool's Day. Last year on April first, one of my co-workers played a really horrible trick on our office. He moved all the stuff on everyone's desks around, so no one could find what they were looking for. It was a total waste of time.
3.
Earth Day is really amazing. People spend their time helping each other and nature. Last year, my book club planted flowers around the kids' playground in the park. Then we had a picnic with lots of fresh fruits and vegetables. I hope we do something just as special this year!
4.
When I was a kid, we used to surprise my mom every Mother's Day with breakfast in bed. We got up early and made a mess in the kitchen, but she always enjoyed it. At least I think she did! It was a great tradition and we had fun cleaning up the kitchen together.
5.
Father's Day is a special time for me. It's great because I get to spend the whole day with my family. Last year, our whole family got together for a big dinner. They made my favorite meal, spaghetti and meatballs, and we had ice cream for dessert. We're all big talkers, so everyone had funny stories to tell.
6.
I don't look forward to New Year's Eve. Those parties are the worst. There's way too much food, and you end up eating too much and staying up too late, and you feel terrible the next day And the noise! Last year, the people next door had a huge, noisy party that went on till five in the morning!
