Exercise 2: Read the dialogue, then choose the correct answers.

Marie:        We might go to the football match next Saturday, Cristina.

Cristina:     Football? You must be joking. I can’t stand it.

Mark:         No? Why not?

Cristina:     Twenty two men of two teams run after a ball, trying to kick it into a net ... and thousands of people shouting and screaming like madmen every time it’s a goal or not. Is this a game?

Mark:         I see ... you prefer things like hopscotch, hide-and-seek, blind man’s buff...

Cristina:     Don’t tease me, Mark. I’m not a child anymore and there are much better sports than football.

Mark:         Really?

Cristina:     Yes, take volleyball, for example. It’s so exciting, the two teams try to keep the ball in motion without letting it touch the ground. No foul play, no violence.

Mark:         Yes, maybe you’re right I like volleyball too. For me all ball games are great!

Cristina:     Not only ball games, Mark. Don’t you like badminton, cards, chess, even darts... and things like that?

Mark:         Er...of course I do.
