Teacher: Okay, let's start with Student A for situation 1. You are the exchange student coming to the UK for 4 weeks. Your flight was delayed, and you need to rest before dinner. You also want to ask if you can do laundry in the house. Begin the role-play.
Student A: Hi, I'm the exchange student. I just arrived at the host family's place. My flight was delayed by a few hours, and I'm quite tired. Is it possible for me to sleep for a bit before dinner?
Teacher: That's fine. You can rest in your room. Dinner will be ready when you wake up. Is there anything else you need?
Student A: Thank you. Actually, I was wondering if I could do my laundry in the house. I have some clothes that need washing.
Teacher: Yes, we have laundry facilities in the house. Feel free to use them whenever you need to do your laundry.
Student A: That's great. Thank you so much!
Teacher: Now let's move on to Student B for situation 1. You are the host for the exchange student. Ask about their flight and if they want to rest before dinner. If they ask about laundry, tell them it's an old model and offer to do it for them.
Student B: Hi, welcome to the UK! How was your flight? Did everything go well?
Student A: Thank you! The flight was delayed, unfortunately. I had to wait for a few hours at the airport.
Student B: Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. Well, I understand that you must be tired after the journey. If you'd like, you can rest in your room before dinner.
Student A: That would be wonderful. Thank you for understanding.
Student B: By the way, I should let you know that our laundry machine is quite old and can be a bit tricky to use. If you want, I can do your laundry for you to save you the trouble.
Student A: Oh, that's really kind of you! If it's not too much trouble, I would appreciate that.
Student B: No problem at all. Just let me know when you have some clothes ready, and I'll take care of it.
Student A: Thank you so much! I really appreciate your hospitality.
Teacher: Great job, both of you! Now let's move on to situation 2. Student A, you are the international student who has been staying with the host family for two months. You can't have any visitors inside the house this weekend, but the garden is okay. Also, you want to ask if you can put up posters on the walls using white-tack. Begin the role-play.
Student A: Hi, I hope you're doing well. I wanted to ask if it's alright to have some friends over next weekend for my birthday celebration. I understand if you have any restrictions or concerns.
Teacher: I'm sorry, but this weekend we won't be able to have visitors inside the house. However, you can certainly have your celebration in the garden if you'd like.
Student A: That's understandable. Thank you for letting me know. In that case, I would like to ask if I can put up some posters and decorations on the walls. I have some study materials and birthday decorations I'd like to display.
Teacher: Of course, you can put up posters and decorations on the walls. I have some white-tack in my drawer that you can use. It doesn't leave any marks, so it's perfect for that purpose.
Student A: That's great! Thank you for providing the white-tack. I'll make sure to use it.
Teacher: You're welcome! Let me know if you need any more assistance with
anything.
Student A: Thank you so much for your support.
Teacher: Now, Student B, you are the international student who has been staying with the host family for two months.

Student B: Hi, I hope everything is going well. My birthday is coming up next weekend, and I was wondering if it's alright to have a few friends over for a small celebration?
Student A: Sure! I don't see any issues with that. You can have your friends over for your birthday.
Student B: That's great to hear! Thank you for allowing it. Also, I have some study materials that I'd like to put up on my bedroom walls. Would that be okay?
