FOR FOREIGN STUDENTS Book 4 BY CE. ECKERSLEY KING’S COLLECE CHAPEL, CAMBRIDGE (see p. 220) ESSENTIAL ENGLISH | or Foreign Students BOOK FOUR revised edition by C. ECKERSLEY FOREIGN LANGUAGES PRESS Sofia, 1967 PREFACE RevisEp Epitions of BooksI, II and III of Essential English have already been produced; this present edition brings Book IV into line with its three companion volumes. The book has been com- pletely overhauled; those parts that the experience of teachers and students had proved to be of interest and value have been retained, the rest has been replaced by newer and, it is hoped, more interesting, material. In this task I have had most generous and valuable assistance from teachers and students in all parts of the world, both in conversations that I have had with them and in letters they have written to me. One thing that particularly impressed me in these letters and conversations was the lively interest that was shown in the “characters” of the book— especially in Hob! I have therefore tried to tell something more about them in this book; to revealthe my stery of Hob that has aroused so much curiosity; to follow Jan’s romance; to see Olaf and Pedro and Lucille leaving Mr. Priestley’s class and starting out in life. The scene, too, has widened. Thanks to Hob’s some- what unusual relatives we get something of the atmosphere of the industrial north; with the aid of Olaf we visit Scotland, from Pedro we hear about Cambridge and (a completely new depar- ture) there is a leap across the Atlantic. In ‘‘ The American Scene” Lucille records her lively impressions of life in America, and Mr. Priestley, in addition to his talks on some of the more picturesque events and outstanding figures in English history and literature, touches also on the history and literature of America. On the linguistic side, attention is paid to some of the points of formal grammar not previously dealt with, e. the infinitive, participles, gerunds, the complement, word order, etc. There is, too, a full treatment of prepositions, and particular stress has been laid on the usage of the chief phrasal verbs. In this book, as in previous ones, copious exercises have been provided with each lesson. Some of these, e. the ‘‘Compre- hension Exercises”, have been modelled on the type of question v vì ; PREFACE set in the Cambridge Lower Certificate examination and are at about the same level of difficulty, so that the student who has worked through this volume should find this work of assistance in preparing for that examination.

Book IV completes the story of the students, and when this book closes we shall have seen them all leaving Mr. Priestley and going out into the world. At the end of Book III we saw that Frieda and Jan had fallen in love with each other; so, naturally, Book IV opéns with the announcement of their engagement. Frieda and Jan Break the News SCENE: MR. PRIESTLEY”S living-room -'Characters—MIR. PRIESTLEY, FRIEDA, Jan yan: Mr. Priestley, there’s something I—we—want to tell you. Frieda and I are en- gaged to be married. PRIESTLEY: Oh, how nice! MR. PRIESTLEY: Congratulations and best wishes! FRIEDA and JAN: Thank you both very much. FRIEDA: You are the first people we have told—except for my parents. JAN: Yes, I wrote to Frieda’s father a week ago, telling him we wanted to get married and asking for his permission. 2 ESSENTIAL ENGLISH | _ FrieDA: And we had replies this morning; it’s all right and they are very happy about it. MRS, PRIESTLEY: Oh! I’m so glad. JAN: You don’t look very surprised at the news. PRIESTLEY: I’m not surprised—I’d expected it for months'—but I’m very pleased indeed. PRIESTLEY: I might as well admit that it’s a com- plete surprise to me—I never notice things even when they are right under my nose—but I’m really delighted at the news. I think you are very lucky, Jan, to get such a girl as Frieda. PRIESTLEY: And I think you are very fortunate, Frieda, to get such a fine fellow as Jan. I hope you will be very happy together. PRIESTLEY: Are you thinking of getting married soon? FRIEDA: Well, that’s one of the things we are not agreed on. As you know, Jan is starting at London University in October to study to become a doctor. He wants us to get married at once. I would rather wait for a year or two—at any rate until Jan has taken his first examination. JAN: But what’s the point of waiting? FRIEDA: So that you can really work hard. Don’t you think, Mr. Priestley, that he would think about his work more if I wasn’t there? JAN: But don’t you see that if we were not married I should be thinking about you all the time and wanting to be with you instead of working. Whereas if we were married 1 You will probably remember her remarks to Mr. Priestley, Essential _English, Book III, p. LESSON ONE 3 FRIEDA: Do you hear that ? Once we are married he won't think about me any more. That’s a fine thing to hear from a man you have just become engaged to. JAN: Oh, Frieda, you know I didn’t mean that. only meant FRIEDA: But that’s not the only thing we don’t agree on. PRIESTLEY (smiling): Dear me, this sounds ter- ~ rible. What is the further cause of disagreement? FRIEDA: Well, I want to live in a house; Jan thinks we ought to have a flat or rooms in a house. jan: A friend told me of a smali flat in the centre of London overlooking King’s Cross station that will be vacant in October. FRIEDA: But I don’t want to live in a smail fiat in the centre of London. I’d much rather have a little -house in the country looking out on fields, where I can breathe fresh air and see trees and hear birds singing. JAN: But a flat-:is so much more convenient. We could get some labour-saving devices that would save you a lot of housework, and there are lots of little restaurants néar King’ s Cross where we could go out for something to eat in the evening so you wouldn’t need to cook meals. FRIEDA: But I want to cook meals. I’m really quite a good cook, and I don’t mind doing housework. Besides, I looked at the flat you are talking about and I didn’t like the look of it at all. JAN: I agree it wasn’t very attractive-looking, but the rent was low. 4 ESS5ENTIAL ENGLISH FRIEDA: You know, I don’t like the idea of paying rent. My parents have paid rent on our house for thirty years. I wish I had all the money they have paid in rent. They’ve paid enough to buy the house twice over and yet they don’t own a single brick of it. JAN: Yes, I agree. I should like to buy a house, but ~ we haven’t the money, at least not now; in four or five years’ time it may be different. You see, Mr. Priestley, it’s like this. My grandfather, my mother’s father—he was a Scotsman—left me a sum of money in his will, and some useless property, a factory; but the money is in trust until IT am twenty-five. I get the income from it, and that has been enough to keep me and pay for my classes; with a bit of a struggle, it will just about keep us both—at least I hope so. \ But we’ve no hope of buying a house—at least . not for a time. So if we must pay rent, let’s pay _ the least we can and have a flat. FRIEDA: Oh dear, I do wish I could have a house all to myself, with a garden where I can grow flowers and lettuces and cabbages. I was so looking for- ward to it. Isn’t there any way we could buy one? MR. PRIESTLEY: I don’t want to look as if I was poking my nose into what isn’t my business, but——- -FRIEDA: Oh, we don’t mind; we’d welcome your ideas, wouldn’ t we, Jan? JAN: Yes, rather! But don’ t you agree with me, Mr. Priestley, that it would be’ much better to be married soon and live in a flat and not wait a year or two as Frieda says. LESSON ONE s FRIEDA: Don’t you think it would be better to wait until we can get a house and not live in a flat ? Isn’t that what we ought to do? MR. PRIESTLEY: Well, I’m not going to say what you ought to do. MRS, PRIESTLEY: Neither am I. MR, PRIESTLEY: But I know what you will do. PRIESTLEY: And so dol. PRIESTLEY: You'll get married soon and not wait. JAN: Very good! ' MRS. PRIESTLEY: And you'll have a house and not a flat or rooms. | FRIEDA: Hurrah! That’s what I say. PRIESTLEY: Well, if that’s what’s going to happen I should like to make a suggestion if I may. JAN and FRIEDA: Oh yes; please do. PRIESTLEY: Well, you know you could buy a house through a Building Society. You look round, choose the house you want to buy and then approach the Building Society. You put down a proportion of the money—say ten per cent—and pay off the rest at so much a month.
