Do the preparation task first. Then listen to the audio and do the exercises.
Charles: Hello, Julian.
Julian: Hello, Charles. How are you?

Julian: No, I don’t.
Charles: She’s Ben’s sister. Do you remember? We were all at Ben’s wedding together.
Julian: Ah, yes, I do – in that old castle. Was it in January?
Charles: Yes, it was! Alyssa was there.
Alyssa: Hello. Nice to meet you … again.
Julian: Hello, nice to meet you too, Alison.
Alyssa: I’m not Alison.
Julian: What?
Alyssa: My name isn’t Alison. It’s Alyssa.
Julian: I’m sorry. Nice to meet you, Alyssa.
