Answer
White-Water Experience
Tapescript
Shulah: Which holiday would you like to go on, Ricky?
Ricky: I don’t know. They all look very interesting. Er,I think I’d like to go on the wildlife safari.
Shulah: Really?
Ricky: I prefer hot places, you know. Like South Africa.
Shulah: Mm. I think the most exciting one is the trip to Greenland.
Ricky: Yes?
Shulah: I mean you can really explore somewhere which isn’t full of people, especially other tourists. It would be great ’cos you can go skiing and mountaineering as well.
Ricky: Right.
Shulah: I wouldn’t like to go on the safari. You know, sitting around watching giraffes. You can see them in the zoo, can’t you?
Ricky: Yes, but the weather’s terrible in Greenland. It’s worse than the weather here!
Shulah: That’s true.
Ricky: And the Greenland trip sounds quite uncomfortable.
Shulah: But they do everything for you. Tents, snowmobiles. Wouldn’t you like to go on a snowmobile?
Ricky: No, not really. I don’t like snow. I’d prefer to go to Africa.
Shulah: Well, let’s have a look at one of the others. What about canoeing and rafting in the States?
Ricky: Mm. I wouldn’t like to go rafting. It’s really dangerous.
Shulah: Oh come on, Ricky. You’d love it in Colorado. It’s hot there. You can’t complain about that!
Ricky: No, and at least they’ve got cabins. I hate camping.
Shulah: Yeah, I know!
Ricky: And I’d like to try canoeing.
Shulah: Right. And you could go to Los Angeles and San Francisco. You love watching American police films.
Ricky: OK , let’s go there!
