Speaker 1 Kevin is very quick to think negative things about people. Even when he talks about his best friend, he always tells you about his faults. And if somebody hasn’t got any faults, he invents them

B

What kind of tour?

A

There are a couple on offer today. There’s a tour of 

the island, but it’s a water tour! You go on a small 

boat to different beaches on the island and you can 

picnic, swim and go snorkelling.

B

Sounds great. What’s the other one?

A

We could visit an ancient historical site on the coast. 

It’s called the Knossus. It’s really well preserved and 

it’s important in the island’s history and the country’s 

history as a whole.

B

Sounds interesting! Well, as I say, I don’t mind. 

Which would you rather do?

A

To be honest, we’ve been doing a lot of swimming 

and that sort of thing since we got here, which is 

wonderful, I agree. But I fancy learning about some 

of the island’s history. Let’s face it, Greece has a lot 

of it!

B

It also has a lot of sea! But why not? It’ll make a nice 

change. Too much relaxing is a bad thing! 

A

The site is overlooking the sea. It’ll still be relaxing – 

just in a different way.

B

Sure, bus journeys are always relaxing! How long is 

the trip?
