M: I’m nearly ready for Christmas now,I’ve sent off all my Christmas cards and (1)_______________________apart from yours.Have you sent out the invitations to our party yet?
W: Not yet, I’ll send them out tomorrow;just review the list to make sure we haven’t forgotten anyone.
M: We are inviting just everybody in the neighborhood except for Mr. Joan and his wife.It seems a bit rude, but to tell the truth, I can’t stand that woman.
W: Well, (2)_____________________________ Last time she came here, she left without saying a word and she never stops running us down to neighbors.
M: Let’s settle then, we won’t invite them.By the way, I met Peter last night; he told me he’d be leaving for Ireland for weeks.He said he was sorry he would miss our party, but he might see us at the Richtons’ New Year Party.
W: What a pity, he is so lively at the party.Oh, I saw some gorgeous Christmas trees on sale in the High Street, but I didn’t have time to ask how much they were.
M: I’m sure they are much too expensive.
W: Well, we’ve got to have a tree,if you don’t want to buy one,you’ll have to go out and dig one up.Oh,(3)____________________that’s about everything.
M: It’s the same every year.You end up with everything you want and I end up with a headache from worrying about the balance of my credit card.
