Now, ours is flooded! We better call the manager, quick!
4.
A: Hey, can you help me?
I've got a 10 o'clock appointment, and I think I'm going to be a little late.

task 1

People are discussing the misshaps. Listen and circle the correct answer.

Screenshot (16)

1.
A: Uh-oh, I just spilled some tomato sauce on the rug.

B: What? You spilled tomato juice on the floor?

A: No. On the rug.
Tomato sauce. Now there's a stain.
B: Oh, I have the best solution for that.

A: Really?

B: Just pour soda on it.

A: Soda? That sounds crazy!

B: I'm serious. Pour plain soda on it.

A: Don't you think plain water will work?

B: Trust me. Soda is the best thing.
I've seen it work.
A: Okay. I'll try it.

2.
A: I need your advice.

B: What's the matter?

A: Lisa invited me over for tea yesterday.
When we finished, I was carrying this heavy teapot on a tray and I slipped ...
B: Oh, no! Did you spill tea on your clothes?

A: No. Worse. I dropped the tray. and Lisa's teapot broke into little pieces.
It was her favorite teapot, and it looked expensive .
B: Well, if I were you. I would offer to buy her a new one.

A: You don't think an apology is enough?

B: No, you should at least offer to buy her a new one.

A: You're right. That's the best thing to do.

3.
A: Oh, no. I've got a stain on my new shirt.
What should I do?
B: Is it a food stain?

A: No, unfortunately. it's ink.

B: Ink? That's very tricky.

A: Should I just put some water on it?

B: Hmm ... Let me look it up on the Internet.
Here it is: For ink, use plain soda. It will lift the stain right out.
A: That doesn't sound right to me.

B: I'm sure this is right. Let's try it.

A: No way! I'm not going to do an experiment on my best shirt.
I'm going to take it to the drycleaner.
4.
A: Remember that jacket my aunt gave me for my birthday?

B: Sure. The one you lost at the theater?

A: No, the one I spilled coffee all over.

B: Oh, yeah ... It was ruined ...

A: Yes. Anyway, she's invited me to dinner.
I'm afraid if I don't wear the jacket. her feelings will be hurt.
B: You should just buy a new one exactly like it.

A: Gee, I don't know ...
That sounds expensive.
B: But you don't want to offend your aunt, do you?

A: No, but she's very understanding.
I'll just show up without it. If she says anything. I'll tell her the truth. The truth is always the best!
5.
A: Uh-oh.

B: What happened?

A: I can't find my wallet.
Whenever I sit in a theater. things fall out of my pockets. Oh, wait a minute ... there it is. But my keys are missing!
B: Oh, great! How will we get back into the house?

A: Well, we could go back to the theater and try to find them.

B: But the theater is closed.
It's past midnight!
A: Well, I guess we'll have to call a locksmith.

B: Is there such a thing as a 24-hour locksmith?

A: I'm sure there is.
I'll look one up on my phone.
6.
A: Why are you stopping?
Is there something wrong with the car?
B: No. the car is fine, but we're lost!

A: What should we do?

B: I don't know. I've got it.
You wait here.
A: What are you doing?

B: I'm going to ask someone for directions.

A: But there's no one around here.
It's completely deserted. In fact, it looks kind of dangerous.
B: Do you have a better idea?

A: Yes. Let's just call the restaurant and ask them how to get there.

B: That makes sense.

Task 1
Four people are describing mishaps. Listen and check the correct information.

1.
I had the worst thing happen to me this morning!
I was running to catch the bus, and I was talking on my cell phone at the same time. Anyway, it was raining hard, and just as I got to the bus stop, I dropped my phone in a gigantic puddle! Some nice man helped me find it. It was completely soaked. The man told me to take the battery out and let all the parts dry out during the day. It sounded like a good idea, so I tried it. I put the battery back this afternoon and tried to make a call, but it doesn't work at all. Now I'll have to go to the phone store and get a new one.
2.
I had quite a mishap last night.
I got home from my office really late-about 11 p.m. I reached in my pocket for my keys. My phone was there, but no keys! I was locked out of my apartment. Then I remembered that I left my keys on the checkout counter at the grocery store at lunchtime! But it was too late to go back there. My apartment manager has an emergency number, but she charges a fee if you get locked out at night. I decided to call anyway. She came over and let me in. She was pretty nice about it, but as soon as I get my key back, I'm going to make a copy and give it to a neighbor.
3.
I had a little problem this morning.
I was in my boss's office. As I was heading back to my own office, I accidentally knocked some things off her desk onto the floor. I was horrified! She had a picture of her kids on her desk. I was afraid that I broke it. Actually, the picture was fine, but I knocked her coffee cup over. There was coffee on her rug. She said not to worry about it. She was going to call someone to clean the rug at the end of the day. But I ran into the kitchen and got some plain soda. It worked perfectly! The stain is completely gone! Now my boss doesn't have to call a rug cleaner.
4.
I got some ink on my new shirt at work yesterday.
At first, I thought it was just some food I spilled at lunchtime, but then I realized it was ink from a leaky pen. I just bought that shirt last week. Anyway, I called my friend, Lisa.She told me to put some plain soda on it, and then wash it in cold water.I thought I should take it to the drycleaner, but she said this would work. It sounded like a cheaper solution, too. So I poured some soda on it and threw it in the washing machine. When I took it out, the stain was still there. In fact, it looked worse! Now I'm going to have to buy a new shirt!
