a. Luke: I liked the bit where Anna got a text from Carie asking her to come back.

b. Ralph: The final episode of Flatmates came out last night. What do you guys think?

c. Sue: Yes, me too. But Anna should’ve said no. It’s time she found a better flatmate.

Dear Mr Hoa An,

I am writing to express my interest in the position of teaching assistant at Better-You Language Centre.

a. I was in charge of giving the children there 2-hour English lessons every weekend.

d. I am aware that Better-You Language Centre is one of the largest language centres in Ho Chi Minh City and I am eager to join your team.

e. As for your requirements, I took my IELTS test three months ago and got an overall score of 8.0, so I can share my own experience with future IELTS candidates.

Yours sincerely.

a. Alessandra: I know. Should we invest it or focus on paying off our bank loan?

b. David: Wow! Congratulations! That’s going to make a big difference to our lives.

c. Alessandra: I agree. And if anything is left after our bills have all been paid, we could give a little more money to charity, too.

d. Alessandra: I was given a promotion today so starting next month, I’ll be making $500 more each month.

e. David: I’d say we repay our loan first. And I think we could set aside more money each month so we can buy a house and don’t have to pay rent any more.
