formally, at other times it¡¯s more appropriate to speak in a more informal way.
Have a go at filling in the gaps in the table below. The first one¡¯s been done for you. There are
lots of ways of expressing these ideas, so there are no right or wrong answers.

May I have a coffee please?
Would you like anything else?
That¡¯s a rip-off.
Great hat!
I¡¯d like to introduce my mother.
May I speak to the headteacher please?
Where¡¯s the way out?

future.
Why not?
I¡¯m hoping to complete my course in the
summer.
Compare your suggestions with a friend¡¯s. Are they similar? In what way are they different?
