20  A What things are important in my life? Well, I’ve got an old car. It isn’t very fast, but I love it. What else? Well, my mobile’s very important to me. It’s got all my friends’ phone numbers on it, my photos, music, everything! I haven’t got a laptop, but I’ve got an old computer. That’s important to me for school. And I’ve got a big TV in my room. That’s very important because I love football!

21  M What’s important to me? I’ve got this very expensive watch. It’s from Ben, my husband, and I love it. And my diary - that’s important to me too. Ben hasn’t got a diary, he’s got everything on his mobile these days. And my new bicycle is important to me because we haven’t got a car. What else? Well, we’ve got a beautiful cat, Lily. She’s very important!

A No, I haven’t, but I’ve got an old computer.
I And you, madam? Have you got a laptop?
M Yes, I have, but it’s not very good.
I Thanks. Right, next question. Have you got a camera?
M Yes, I have.
I And what about you, sir? Have you got a camera?
A No, I haven’t. I take photos with my mobile.
I Right. And have you got an MP3 player?
M What’s an MP3 player?
A They’re for music. They’re very small.
M Oh, those things. No, I haven’t got one of those.
I And you, sir? Have you got an MP3 player?
A Yes, I have.
I Have you got a radio?
A No, I haven’t. I listen to the radio on my mobile.
I And you, madam?
M Yes, I have.
I Thanks. Right, the last question. Have you got a DVD player?
A Yes, I have. I watch a lot of DVDs.
I And you, madam? Have you got a DVD player?
M Yes, I have, but it’s very old.
I Right. Well, madam, we’ve got some very good DVD players at the moment...
