Part Ⅱ WorkAnd Play Lesson 38 Ex. Ⅰ Directions: Answer the questions according to the information you get from the tape. Key: (see tapescript) Ex. Ⅱ Directions: Read the list of words and expressions that the father uses to describe his sons. Put a check mark (√) beside the word or expression used to describe the younger son. Key: 1, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 11. Tapescript: Work And Play (1′22″) Susan: How have your two sons been doing at school lately, Andy? Andy: Terrible! James never starts working, and Malcolm never stops working. Susan: You're joking, of course. I hear that Malcolm is likely to win all the prizes in the exams this year. Andy: Yes, so his teachers say. But he deserves to do well. He's always beer so conscientious and hard-working, and he's been slaving at his books every evening for months on end recently. He wants to go to Oxford University next year. Susan: Maybe he'll become a university lecturer himself eventually. Andy: Maybe. But I think he studies too hard; I sometimes wish he'd go out and enjoy himself for a change. Susan: Yes. …What about the younger one? Andy: Well, James' teachers say that he has ability, but that he's too inconsistent and that he rarely does his best. In other words, he's not bad when he makes an effort, but he's too idle. He couldn't care less about exams. He does his homework in ten minutes every evening and then rushes out to play tennis. Susan: He's crazy about tennis, isn't he? Perhaps he can make his fortune at it. You can make more money from sport than from an old-fashioned profession these days. Andy: So I believe. But my wife always worries about the children's future. She wants James to give up tennis and study law, but I don't believe in forcing boys to take up careers they're not cut out for. I wonder how James'll develop in a couple of years' time!

Tony: Well, that's that. The class did very well in this examination!

Tony: Yes! Do you remember that boy, John Foster----the one who nearly failed my American history course last year?
Carol: Oh, you mean the young rebel? Of course! I thought he was very amusing and good looking, too!
Tony: He's intelligent, in any case. But last year he did very little work! And yet he protested when he got a poor grade for the course.
Carol: Yes, he rebeled against you, too!
Tony: And I didn't accept his protest. I told him he had to do some work.
Carol: Aha! Now I understand the pleased expression. The problem student makes some progress.
Tony: Some progress? He's progressing marvellously. He's working----and his record shows it.
Carol: All right! I'm very glad! Let's invite him to dinner tomorrow.
