Grammar
An interesting conversation
hello everybody, I've just written an conversation with many collocations relevant to travel. The conversation is short, easy but help me to improve paragraph writing skills and remember new words.
Can you read through my conversation and check grammar errors? You'll learn some interesting travel collocation
.
A: Hey Martin, I’ve just got some travel brochures in the morning. They are full of details of a variety of travel. I think they’re helpful to us.
B: A good idea! Visit me at noon for lunch to look at them.
An hour later on.
B: So what do we have?
A: They’re Donald’s travel agent, which Linda strongly recommended to me last week. She said they were a good travel agent, who specialised in tourist.
B: We’ll have a week off, so five or six-day tour is suitable.
A: Totally agree! The brochures mention London, my favorite city. What do you think?
B: I don’t know well about it.
A: London is an interesting place to go with many iconic landmarks such as Tower Bridge, Palace of Westminster, etc.
B: Ok, a tour to London in five days. Sounds good! What about accommodation?
A: We can’t afford to stay in smart hotels or luxury ones. We have to look for budget accommodation. I know some hotels in London but most of them are run-down with the exception of the Goodwell. It is a small, cheap, family-run hotel with rough and ready quality. There are hot and cold water.
B: And flight?
A: Because of the tour to London, we must choose international flights, not domestic ones. I prefer Vietnam Airline. They offer excellent in-flight entertainment, with the latest movies and music. The in-flight magazine includes maps and useful information so we’ll know more about London.
B: You know, this will be the first time I travel by plane. Can you tell me something to do?
A: Never mind. Just do as I do. Remember, don’t forget to bring your ticket, visa and ID. You should board the plane in time in order to prepare yourself for the take-off. If you want to have a great view of the landscapes under the plane, take window seat. But I prefer aisle seat. Stewardesses also tell you to do other things. The most important might be fastening your seatbelts before take-off and landing.
B: I will go to Donald’s travel agent to make our travel arrangements on Monday morning. And you make a holel room reservation now. I’m afraid the hotel will be soon fully booked during the summer.
