Dialogue A
（ S： Miss Susan； B： Mr. Baker）
S： Well， that's it， Susan. Seven appointments in Paris at the beginning of the week， and four in Frankfort at the end of the week. That should keep me busy.
B： It's certainly a tight schedule.
S： Now it's a question of getting there. I need a flight to Paris on Sunday evening and a hotel in Paris for three nights. I have to be in Frankfurt by eleven o'clock on Thursday morning， and I'll need a hotel for one night. I'll head home on Friday.
B： At what time？
S： My last appointment is at three， so I should be free by five at the very latest. I think I could get to the airport by six.
B： Do you know how far you'll be from the airport at five？
S： No， not really.
B： So you're not sure how long it will take to get there？
S： No， but I'm sure it won't take more than an hour.
B： Don't forget it's Friday night. If Frankfurt is anything like London， everyone will be leaving for the weekend. It'll be the rush hour， and traffic might be moving very slowly.
S： You're a pessimist.
B： I'm a realist！

B： You can find me something， surely？
S： Maybe， but it'll probably be out in the wilds.
B： Well， keep trying. I managed to persuade quite a few people to see me， and I must keep the appointments. Are you having any language problems？

B： Try some of the smaller hotels.
S： I already have.
B： Well， if necessary I'll look for something when I'm there.
S： I've just thought of something. My first appointment is with Mr. Blake. His secretary was particularly helpful when I spoke to her. It might be worth giving her a ring and asking if she has any ideas.
B： OK， I'll give it a try.
