Week 10 review

A short story, ten questions across the whole week, extra practice from earlier weeks, your words and your can-do list. About 60 minutes.

1Story of the week 15 minutes

Anna and Mark have dinner. Read it as a play: one voice for each person.

In the exam every text is played once: try the story by ear first.

В кафе (In the café)

Анна и Марк в кафе. Официант: — Добрый вечер! Что вы будете?

— Я буду борщ и рыбу, — говорит Анна.

— А я хочу мясо и салат, — говорит Марк.

— Что вы будете пить?

— Воду, пожалуйста. — А мне кофе.

Потом Марк говорит: — Счёт, пожалуйста! Обед стоил тысячу рублей.
