[09:28.71]TAKING
[09:37.85]1 Read the following situation and act out the dialogue.
[09:44.23]Before Bassanio and Portia got married,
[09:48.67]Portia gave him a ring and made him promise to keep it all his life.
[09:54.91]Losing it,selling it or giving it away would be the end of her love for him.
[10:02.36]After the court case between Antonio and Shylock,
[10:07.32]Bassanio gives the lawyer this ring...
[10:11.58]Sir,to thank you for your help,
[10:15.65]please take the 3,000 ducats that Shylock must pay to Antonio.
[10:21.90]Oh,no,I can't take that money.
[10:26.47]Shylock has learnt his lesson,
[10:30.73]and I am glad that I could help you and save Antonio.Goodbye.
[10:37.07]But sir,can't we give you something small by which you can remember us?
[10:43.24]Well,OK then,since you insist.
[10:47.92]Antonio,I will take your gloves and Bassanio,I will take this ring of yours.
[10:56.17]Don't draw back you hand.
[10:59.83]But sir,I can't give you this ring.It isn't of much value.
[11:05.76]That doesn't matter.I like it,and it is the only thing I want from you.
[11:12.52]I'm sorry,I can't do that.I will give you the most expensive ring in Venice,
[11:19.18]but not this one.It has a special value for me.
[11:24.33]I can see you make promises as easy as you break them.
[11:29.79]Good sir,this ring was given to me by my wife
[11:35.35]and she made me promise that I should neither sell nor give nor lose it.
[11:41.83]That's bad excuse.I've heard it many times.
[11:47.40]If your wife knew well I deserve it,
[11:52.07]she would no long be angry with you for giving it to me.Farewell.
