The Bill
Walking up to a department store's fabric counter, a pretty girl asked the clerk, "I want to buy this material for a new dress. How much does this cost?"
"Only a kiss a yard, " replied the smirking male clerk.
"That's fine," replied the girl. "I'll take ten yards."
With expectation and anticipation showing all over his face, the clerk hurriedly measured out and wrapped the cloth, then held it out teasingly.
The girl took the package, smiled a big smile at the clerk, and then pointed to an old man standing next to her. "Grandpa will pay the bill! Goodbye!" she laughed and walked away.

Agreeing and disagreeing

Improving your English vocabulary is not as difficult as you think. You just need to become familiar with useful English words, phrases and expressions. This page will help you with telling someone that you agree or disagree with their opinion.

Agreeing
"I think you're right.""I agree with you."
Strong agreement
"I couldn't agree with you more.""You're absolutely right.""I agree entirely.""I totally agree."
Agreeing in part
"I agree with you up to a point, but...""That's quite true, but...""I agree with you in principle, but..."
Disagreeing
"I'm not sure I agree with you.""(I'm afraid) I don't agree.""(I'm afraid) I disagree.""(I'm afraid) I can't agree with you.""(I'm afraid) I don't share your opinion."
Note that when you disagree with someone, you can often soundmore polite by using a phrase such as "I'm afraid..."
Disagreeing strongly
"I don't agree at all.""I totally disagree.""I couldn't agree with you less."

Looks like we’re in for some rain later.

A trough of low pressure is sweeping down from south-east Iceland, bringing fog and frost to low lying areas, with scattered thunderstorms in the west and a belt of rain, which may fall as sleet or snow over the Pennines, moving across the whole country by tomorrow lunchtime.
Don’t worry if you can’t understand their reply—just keep smiling!

Interview II

2007-09-28T09:07:00.000+02:00

Interview with Gisele Bundchen

Nesta entrevista, a palavra que ela não consegue pronúnciar correto é Myth [mĭth], na frase: Tom Jobin is a myth... ela tenta explicar o que quer dizer, mas o entrevistador não entende!

*Creio que para a palavra "cartolina", que ela cita na entrevista, a melhor tradução seria "Poster".

Link: Listen to the Whole Conversation

Librarian: Can I help you?
Natalie: Yes. I am a bit confused. My sociology class is supposed to read a chapter in a book called Sociology and the Modern Age. According to the syllabus, the book is in the library, but I haven't been able to find it.
Librarian: Do you have your syllabus with you? May I see it?
Natalie: Yes, uh....I put it in the front of my sociology notebook. Oh, here it is.
Librarian: Let me see. Oh yes. Your professor has placed this book on reserve. That means you cannot find it on the shelves in its usual place. You need to go to a special room called the reserve room. It's down the hall and to the right.
Natalie: I'm sorry - I still don't understand what you mean by on reserve.
Librarian: You see, your professor wants every one in the class to read the chapter. If one student removes the book from the library, it is likely that none of the other students will have the opportunity to read it. So, your professor has insured that all students have the opportunity to read it by placing it on reserve.
Natalie: So, will I be able to find this book?
Librarian: Yes, when a book is on reserve, a student can go to the reserve room and ask the reserve librarian for the book. The student can have the book for a few hours, and he or she MUST read it in the library during that time. That way, the book stays in the library, and all students have a chance to read it.
Natalie: Okay. Thank you. I understand now.
Librarian: Will there be anything else?
Natalie: No! I am on my way to the reserve room. Thanks again!
