[-1:-7.00]B:Well,yes.
[-1:-8.00]I just wanted to thank her for arranging our holiday to New Zealand last month
[-1:-9.00]A:Oh,that's very kind of you.May I have your name,please?
[-1:10.00]B:Yes,I'm Steven Green Please tell Mary that we had a lovely time in Queenstown
[-1:11.00]And the hotel she recommended was excellent.
[-1:12.00]A:Oh,I'm so glad,
[-1:13.00]it's always useful for us if we have a personal recommendation from one of my customers
[-1:14.00]Which hotel did you stay in Queenstown Mr Green?
[-1:15.00]B:It was the Holiday Inn in Queenstown.
[-1:16.00]My wife is disabled,you see,and so we need special facilities for a wheel chair
[-1:17.00]The staff of that hotel were most helpful.
[-1:18.00]And they had very good facilities for disabled people.
[-1:19.00]So we were very pleased that Mary arranged that hotel for us.
[-1:20.00]A:Well,it's very kind of you to let us know.
[-1:21.00]I make sure that Mary would get your message tomorrow.Thanks again for calling
[-1:22.00]B:You're welcome, good-bye.
[-1:23.00]A:Good-bye,Mr Green.
[-1:24.00]No.2
[-1:25.00]A:Hello!Opal Travel,Helen Chen speaking.How can I help you?
[-1:26.00]B:Hello!I'm Roger King.
[-1:27.00]My wife and I would like to book a holiday in Queenstown New Zealand,
[-1:28.00]for this July.
[-1:29.00]But first I'd like some information,please.
[-1:30.00]A:Yes,of course.I'm afraid I'm rather new at this job.
[-1:31.00]So if you could let me have your questions I'll make a note to them.
[-1:32.00]And then find out the answers for you.
[-1:33.00]B:Right,that would be fine.Ok,well,first Can we fly direct to Queenstown.
[-1:34.00]How long would it take And how much would it cost?
[-1:35.00]A:Direct to Queenstown How long and how much?Right.
[-1:36.00]B:Next,do we need a visa for New Zealand?
[-1:37.00]A:Do you and your wife have valid passports?
[-1:38.00]B:Yes,we both do.
[-1:39.00]A:Then I don't think you would need a visa.But we'll check that for you.
[-1:40.00]B:Thanks,then do we need any special vaccinations for any illness?
[-1:41.00]A:Vaccinations?Yes.
[-1:42.00]B:And,can you recommend a good hotel,and tell us the cost for one week?
[-1:43.00]But there's one problem,my wife was in a car crash recently,and broke a leg.
[-1:44.00]So it would help if the hotel has good facilities for the disabled.
[-1:45.00]She has to use a wheel chair some of the time
[-1:46.00]A:Right,so you want to know the cost of the hotel for one week
[-1:47.00]and it must have the facilities for the disabled.
[-1:48.00]Are there any other questions,Mr King?
[-1:49.00]B:Well,I'd like to know a bit  more about Queenstown.
[-1:50.00]I'd like to do some sports personally,
[-1:51.00]and could you tell me what the weather will be like in July?
[-1:52.00]A:Yes,of course.We'll look into all of those points and get back to you.
[-1:53.00]Perhaps it will be easier if we sent you a letter with all the information
[-1:54.00]B:Yes,that would be fine.
[-1:55.00]You have my address already from the last holiday you arranged for me.
[-1:56.00]A:Right,thanks for your inquiring,Mr King
[-1:57.00]B:You're welcome.Good-bye.
[-1:58.00]A:Good-bye.
[-1:59.00]SPEAKING page 33
[-2:00.00]A Intonation of question tags We use question tags in two main ways.
[-2:-1.00]We use different intonation patterns to show what we mean.
[-2:-2.00]1.When we are really asking a question,
[-2:-3.00]we use a rising intonation pattern for the tag.
[-2:-4.00]The plane to London leaves at six o'clock doesn't it?
[-2:-5.00]Here the intonation pattern tells us that the speaker is not certain,
[-2:-6.00]and he/she wants the listener to confirm the information.
[-2:-7.00]2.Sometimes we use a question tag to be polite,
[-2:-8.00]but we are not really asking a question.
[-2:-9.00]Then we use a falling intonation pattern for the tag,
[-2:10.00]and it sounds like a statement.
[-2:11.00]but is not really asking a question.
[-2:12.00]Sometimes the speaker may not even stop for a reply.
[-2:13.00]The tower looks beautiful at night,doesn't it?
[-2:14.00]The view from it is wonderful.
[-2:15.00]Exercise A1
[-2:16.00]1.This isn't your wallet,is it?
