Exercise 1
1. Victoria Beckham’s hairstyle; what restaurant Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have been to; how a famous actress looks in her bikini; Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s
relationship.
2. A serious newspaper
3. Every week
4. Angelina Jolie
5. Clare’s two sentences beginning ‘Oh, sorry’ and ending ‘Everyone needs to know that’.
6. She says reading about the world’s problems all the time is depressing and also that it doesn’t actually solve those problems.
7. Probably because Laura shows no sign of agreeing with her but instead begins talking (perhaps sincerely, perhaps just to be irritating) about Brad Pitt and AngelinaJolie.
8. They are probably friends as there is quite a lot of language that could be considered rude otherwise – e.g. ‘you don’t know what you’re talking about’, ‘give
me a break’, ‘it’s rubbish’, and Clare’s sarcasm.
