Top of the class, top at everything? Duncan’s way to success a) Do you remember Duncan’s story? Put the dialogue in the correct order. Duncan: Yeah. I know … I needed some time for myself. You know that the kids at school keep calling me a geek?! But I’m not anymore … Flynn: What happened? I mean that sounds cool, but what was the problem? Duncan: Well, a couple of days ago I completed this online questionnaire for a top-secret project for teenagers. They asked me questions about my interests, and then asked me for an interview, but during the interview … Flynn: That’s interesting. Go on. How come you have changed? Flynn: Cool! I’m happy for you that your lifestyle has become healthier now. Great! You can be proud of yourself. 1 Flynn: Hey Duncan, what’s up? I haven’t seen you for ages. Is everything okay with you? Duncan: They asked me questions about my fitness and about what I eat. Finally, they told me that I was the best candidate to be the first teenager in outer space, but I needed to be active and eat healthier food. So, that’s what I’m trying to do now. b) Read the dialogue again and highlight the words/phrases in the past simple and present perfect in two different colours. c) Duncan’s interview: match the questions with Duncan’s answers. Interviewer: Duncan: 1. Duncan, your online test is really good. Have you studied for it? No, I haven’t. Actually … vegetables aren’t my favourite food, but I’m trying to do better in the future. 2. Are you good at working with computers? 1 No, I haven’t. I’ve always been a good student and I love science. 3. Have you done any sports recently? For example, running or swimming? Yes, I’m a real computer nerd, but my parents don’t really like it. 4. What about food? Have you eaten good and healthy food recently? Erm … no, I haven’t. I mean … I’ve tried to do some sports, but I’m not a great fan of sports. d) Think of two more questions you would like to ask Duncan. 3 69 13 Unit Sports sixty-nine Nur zu Prüfzwecken – Eigentum des Verlags öbv
