It’s a Small World CHAPTER 2

TASK 2 Role-play the video call between Ruben and Sai Wei. Pay attention to
how requests and invitations are made.

Sai Wei, I wonder if you'd like to go to the PC Fair this
afternoon? My dad and I are going to shop for a few gadgets.
I'd love to come, Ruben. Unfortunately, I don't have any transport.
Would your dad mind picking me up from my house?

Not at all, Sai Wei. Could you be ready by two o’clock? I want to
get that new Speedlink before it goes out of stock.
Speedlink? Would you mind telling me what it is?
It's a new gadget in the market – a thumb-sized media streaming
device. Speedlink can connect your television, smartphone, tablet
or computer to the Internet. It allows you to stream movies, videos,
games and music from online services.
Does that mean you can download your favourite games and
play on your big TV screen? Wow! That will be great.
It'll be wonderful, Sai Wei. If I buy it today, I'll install it immediately.
Do you want to play Battle of Titans with me?
I'd love to, Ruben. However, could you send me
