Work in pairs or in small groups. Read and act out the situations. 1. You are talking with your family about the newspapers and magazines you want to subscribe to for the next year. Tell your parents about the teenage publications you are interested in. A: It’s time to subscribe to newspapers for the next year. I think we should subscribe to ‘The Ukrainska Pravda” and “The Hunting and Fishing”. Would you like to add anything to this list? B: Certainly. I think we should subscribe to “The Cooking” for mum and for the “Cool!” for me. A: Is it a newspaper or a magazine? B: Of course it’s a teenage magazine. It publishes articles on fashion and modern lifestyle, fitness, and young people’s relations. It has many photos, and posters, and it’s... cool! A: Well, every family member should have his or her publication. We’ll subscribe to the “Cool!” as well. B: Great. Thanks. 2. You are talking with a newsagent about the latest issue of the magazine you want to buy. Explain why you are looking for this very issue. Thank for his / her help. A: Good afternoon. Can I have the latest issue of the “OOPS!” please? B: Let me see, I’m afraid we’ve run out of it. Would you like “Cool” instead? A: Well, I need “OOPS!” for my English project. They have an interview with Sarah Jessica Parker in that issue. B: Come tomorrow then, I’ll order more copies from the store. A: Thank you.
