This book is fór students of intermediate and advanced levels. Its object is to teach the kind of English that two or more young people would speak in the London of today and in the various situations in which George and Elvira find themselves. Ideally the dialogues should be used with a tape. There are many ways of using them in eláss. Here are various approaches: 1. Play the tape with books shut and ask students what the dialogue is about. 2. Play short sentences on the tape and get students to repeat them immediately, again with books shut. 3. When the student is familiar with the spoken speech, play through the tape with books open. Ask questions about idiom and vocabulary or, on a more sophisticated level, on George and Elvira's motives and reactions - linking this with their speech flow. 4. Let students listen to the tape while reading first the marked and then the unmarked dialogues, concentrating entirely on the speech flow. 5. Use the text as a way of revising structure or of practising grammatical forms new to them. 6. Get students to act out the dialogues. Make them overact if necessary at the beginning.
