一、阅读理解
Hi Maz and Bobby.
I don't know what you're up to this Sunday but if you're at a loose end,come over to
my place.We're going to have a barbecue.
Tom
Hi Tom,
Thanks mate,but I'm completely snowed under at the moment.I have to write an essay
by Monday afternoon,so I'll be working all weekend.I've got nothing arranged for the
following weekend though,so maybe we can meet then?I'll call you later.
Bobby
Dear Tom,
Like Bobby,I'm a bit tied up tomorrow.Unfortunately,I have to go to my great uncle's
house for a family lunch.He was ill so we thought it might not happen,but it looks as if it's
going ahead.I really can't get out of it because it's the old man's 60th birthday and most of
the family will probably be there.
Maz
Ok you guys.
I'm calling off the barbecue.Judging from the grey sky,it's going to rain all weekend
anyway.Maybe you'll have done your various duties by the end of the evening and we can
go for a drink instead!If you want to relax,I'll be in The Hart,a pub on King Street.Gloria
and I are meeting there at about 8:30.as long as nothing else pops up!Don't forget it closes
at 10:30 on Sundays.
Ok,time to put my feet up and take it easy!
Later,
Tom
