Wil they touch upon all the questions in the article?

Drill

You have very little experience in teaching English.

Surely, not.

Has he made any effort to fix the tent?

Precisely.

He is going on a hiking tour.

Probably. (But I'm going to gain some.)

She arouses everybody's admiration.

Certainly. But it's not so easy.

Spare her nerves.

I thought you knew about it.

How long will it take you?

We are not surprised. She is so beautiful and clever.

How did he accept it?

I don't think you quite understand what she's done.

They are going to make some inquiries about the affair.

A month or two, at any rate.

They can't spare you any time now.

He was full of indignation, I think.

Make a note of her telephone number now.

When?

Frankly speaking I am quite well aware of it.

But why didn't they tell us before?

She displays no enthusiasm about the work.

Why didn't you do it in time?

She refuses every present of his.

What difference does it make, may I ask?

Eight o'clock won't suit her either.

Whoever would if the work isn't interesting?

I can't admit she is wrong.

Her name is on the list.

What's the use of doing that?

Has he proposed to her?

What time is suitable for her then?

He promised to do everything in time.

Who can? Why not, I wonder?

We are far from indifferent to what you're doing.

Why should you worry about it?

You shouldn't have touched upon such things in public.

Everybody without exception is ready to do it.

Did he do it, in fact? Are you really? Shouldn't I?

She dreams of having this book.

The ten o'clock train won't suit us.

Yes, I know, but can you? Buy it for her, then.

How can I make inquiries about the train's departure?

Wil you enter her name in the list?

Go by the six o'clock one. Phone them.

I reminded him of his promise.

With pleasure!

Wil they accept my apology?

Good of you! Why, naturally! No doubt!

Wil you make an effort to do it again?

Yes, do.

May I help myself?

Be sensible, then. Well, then invite her.

Don't treat me like a baby.

You suggest a better one. With pleasure!

I ought to invite her.

Why, certainly!

That's a silly plan.

Good for you! Well done!

Wil you lend a hand, Tom?

So much the better!

I got really cross with them.

No wonder the car wouldn't start!

Nikki's not coming.

The petrol tank was empty.

7. Pronounce the drill sentences with Low Fall. Observe the difference in attitude.

8. Your teacher will suggest a verbal context. You in turn respond to it by using Intonation Pattern XIV. The drill will continue until every

student has participated. Keep the exercise moving rapidly.
