C: Meet Mr. Petrov from Ukrain.

W: How do you do, Mr. Petrov.

P: How do you do, Mr. White.

W: Did you have a nice journey?

P: Yes, it was quite comfortable. I think it’s more convenient to fly than to go by land.

W: I quite agree with you. I hope you will enjoy your stay here. The weather is nice for sightseeing.

C: It is certainly fine. It’s much warmer here than in London.

W: Yes, that’s right. But don’t forget that we are in the South of the country. Well, Mr. Petrov, Frank told me you wanted to see our production shops.

P: If it’s not too much trouble.

W: By no means. I can show you round the whole plant so that you will get a good idea of the range of our products.

P: I’d be delighted to if it doesn’t take you too much time.

W: I’ll be glad to help you and answer any of your questions. I’ll lead the way.

B)

W: This is our assembly shop and here you will see the finished products. We produce pumps of high capacity for different application. Here is our latest model. We modified it three months ago.

P: How can it be compared with the previous model?

W: That’s a good question. It’s easier to operate and more reliable as compared with the previous one.

Besides, its capacity is higher. We started producing this model three months ago and by now we’ve received a lot of orders.

C: I say, John, Mr. Petrov told me on our way here that he wanted to see our test department, too. Is it possible?

W: Yes, of course. We test every product thoroughly and we’ve had good reports from our customers both in our country and abroad. This is the place where we test our products. In fact they are testing one right now.



 

C)

P: That was very interesting, Mr. White. I enjoyed every minute of my visit. Thank you very much.

W: It’s really nothing. You are always welcome to visit our plant. John, what are you doing tonight?

C: We are going to walk about the city and see the sights.

W: and how about dinner at a restaurant at 9? I can call for you at the hotel at 8:45.

C: That’s a good idea. Thank you.
