Exercise 1-7: Individual Practice CD 1 Track 14

Practice saying the sentences after the suggestion and the beep tone 1 +. You will be given only a

short time in which to reply so that you won't have the leisure 2 to overthink. Start speaking as soon as

you hear the tone because I'll be saying the sentence only a few seconds later.

1. Convey 3 the information that it really does sound as if rain is falling. +

2. Convey the opinion that although it has the sound of rain, it may be something else. +

3. Convey the different feelings that someone has about rain and snow. +

4. Convey the fact that rain is an impossibility right now. +

+ Pause the CD.

V Practice the four sentences on your own ten times.
