8 In pairs, read Vicky's reply to Pete. Which words or phrases can be crossed out? Is there any missing information? Check your answers on page 118.

Dear Pete,

How's it going?

I am meeting my 19-year-old cousin from Bolton in Racey's on Saturday evening, so I'm afraid I can't go with you, Mark and Rachel. What a pity - I haven't been to the theatre for ages.

Anyway, do you want to meet for a coffee on Sunday at about 3 o'clock? I will be upstairs in Toni's café - in the non-smoking area, of course.

Don't forget to let me know if there are any problems or if you can't come.

Best wishes,

Vicky XXX

8 В парах прочитайте ответ Вики Питу. Какие слова или фразы можно вычеркнуть? Есть ли какая-либо недостающая информация?

Ответ:

Words or phrases that can be crossed out to make the reply more concise:

• "How's it going?"
  (This is a common informal greeting, but it can be removed for brevity as it doesn't convey core information.)
• "from Bolton"
  (This detail about Vicky's cousin's origin is not essential for the main message of declining an invitation or proposing a new meeting.)
• "What a pity - I haven't been to the theatre for ages."
  (This is a personal comment or a lament, not critical information regarding the arrangements.)
• "Anyway,"
  (This is a discourse marker used to change the subject, and it can be omitted without altering the meaning.)
• "of course."
  (This phrase adds emphasis but is not strictly necessary for understanding the location of the non-smoking area.)
• "Don't forget to let me know if there are any problems or"
  (The phrase can be shortened to "Let me know if you can't come." without losing the main request for a reply.)

There is no critical missing information in Vicky's reply. She clearly states why she cannot attend the theatre on Saturday, and provides all necessary details (day, approximate time, location, and specific area) for her proposed coffee meeting on Sunday. She also asks Pete to confirm if he can't come.

(В ответе Вики нет критически важной недостающей информации. Она четко указывает, почему не может пойти в театр в субботу, и предоставляет все необходимые детали (день, приблизительное время, место и конкретную зону) для предложенной ею встречи за кофе в воскресенье. Она также просит Пита подтвердить, если он не сможет прийти.)
