V. Let’s Talk
John: Hi, Jane. Have you got a second? I need some advice.
Jane: Sure. What’s up?
John: Well, I’ve put my name down for a college trip to Arizona and I know you’ve been there a
few times.
Jane: Yeah, that’s a great place. Which part are you going to?
John: We’ll have a couple of days in Phoenix 1; then we’ll drive over the Grand Canyou and head
for the desert.
Jane: Fabulous 2. When are you going?
John: The second week of November. Till the 17th—ten days in all. What do you think the weather
will be like in the desert?
Jane: It should be very pleasant, around fifteen degrees centigrade during the day. But make sure
you take something warm to wear, because the temperature can drop a lot at night, down to
five degrees or ever lower.
John: Really? I’d shiver 3 all night if you hadn’t told me that.
Jane: But it’s a wonderful time of year to go. There could be snow on the mountains by then, and
the scenery will be fantastic. In the middle of the summer, it can be unbearably 4 hot down
there.
John: Did you meet the local people when you were there? Tell me what they’re like.
Jane: They’re very friendly, and it’s interesting to watch them making crafts—pottery, weaving,
and the like.
John: Sounds great. But I’d also like a little action. I know there are mule 5 rides down into the the
Grand Canyou. Have you heard anything about that?
Jane: Sure I have. A guide will lead you right down a trail to the bottom of the Canyou, to the
Colorado River itself.
John: The Grand Canyou is pretty steep. Is it dangerous?
Jane: Well, nothing is perfectly 6 safe, but the safety record of the rides is pretty good. It should be
Fun.
John: 1458 Jane: 2367
