Вправа № 1. Invitation to a Motor Show

Hello.
Mr Sock :
Good morning. I’d like to speak to Mr Baturin.

Who’s calling, please ?
Mr Stock:
This is Mr Stock from Satre Ltd.
Secretary:
Will you hold the line, please ? I’ll see if Mr Baturin is available. Mr. Stock, Mr Baturin is on the other phone. Will you wait or call back ?
Mr Stock
I’ll wait, thank you.
Secretary:
Hello, Mr. Stock I’m sorry tp have kept you waiting. I’m putting Mr Baturin on the line now.
Mr Baturin:
Good morning, Mr Stock.
Mr Stock:
Good morning, Mr Baturin. I believe you know that the International Motor Show at Earls Court is due to open on Wednesday, October 18. We would greatly appreciate it if you could come to Earls Court to attend the official opening. The Lada 1200 Saloon from Satre Motors will make its debut at this show.
Mr Baturin:
Thank you very much for your kind invitation. But unfortunately I can’t accept it. I have an appointment. I think Mr Ozerov will be able to attend this function if you don’t mind.
Mr Stock:
Oh, we’ll be happy to see Mr Ozerov. We are sending a Complimentary Ticket (квиток-запрошення) for him by hand.
Mr Baturin:
I wish you every success in your business. The Lada is really creating a great deal of interest wherever it is shown. I sincerely hope that selling Soviet cars in his country will be very profitable for you.
Mr Stock:
Thank you for your kind wishes. Good bye.
Mr Baturin:
Bye-bye, Mr Stock.

Mr Zotov:
I know you are a ballet admire. I’d like to invite you to Covent Garden. I guess you know the Bolshoi ballet is now in London and tomorrow are performing ‘Spartacus’.

Hello. I’d like to speak to Mr Smirnov.

Could you speak up, please. Your voice is ever so faint.
Mr Barlow:
Hold on a minute, please. I’ll try to fix the microphone. Are you there, Mr Smirnov?
Mr Smirnov:
Oh, yes. I think, that’s better now.
Mr Barlow:
Mr Smirnov, I’m calling to invite you to dinner tomorrow.
Mr Smirnov:
Thanks a lot. It’s very kind of you and I’d happy to join you but I’m afraid I’ve got another engagement for tomorrow. I’m very sorry.
Mr Barlow:
I’m sorry, too, but I don’t understand I should have invited you a few days ago. One can’t really expect people to accept invitations at such short notice, of course. We’ll have to make it some other time then. Good bye.
