                                                    Dialogues – Unit 6

      Act out from English.

1 Yael! You’re very beautiful – both at work and in the evening.
2 And you’re very sweet – both at work and in the evening. What’s up?
3 Everything is good.
5 Oh, I never know what to say on a first date.
6 A date isn’t a job interview. You can say anything.
7 Yeah, true… Ok, Yael, what do you want to do in life?
8 Wow… what a question.
9 You see? I really don’t know what (people) say on a first date!
11 No, it’s a good question. I think a lot about what I want to do in life.
11 And…?
12 I want to be an actress.
13 An actress? How wonderful!
14 You think? Maybe you should speak to my parents.
15 Already?! We’re just on our [a] first date…
17 Why, do your parents think you shouldn’t [don’t need to] be an actress?

18 Exactly. They say that an actor is hard work, and the salary isn’t good. They say
       that a lot of actors don’t find work, that the market is very competitive and that
       I’m not competitive.

19 And that’s true?
20 It’s true, but what can I do? Being an actress is my dream. I don’t want a

       different profession. My dad says: “Why don’t you want to be an architect, or a
       graphic designer?” and my mom says: “An actor is not a profession. You need a
       serious profession. Why don’t you want to be a doctor?”
21 I’m familiar with that… You see, my mom is a lawyer, my dad is an accountant,
       my big brother is a doctor and my sister is a journalist. They work in “serious”

       professions, with a good salary.
22 But you have a serious profession, too, don’t you? You studied computers in college.
23 I studied computers, but… I want to be a photographer.

24 A photographer? Really?

25 Yes. I love taking photos, very much.
26 So what’s the problem? A photographer is a great profession.

27 Yeah, but my dad says that there are a lot of photographers on the market, and I

       need to be an excellent [excelling] photographer to get customers.
28 And you’re not an excellent photographer?
29 I don’t know… Maybe.
30 I think you should be a photographer. It’s your dream. But Daniel…

31 Yes?
32 You can be a photographer, but not a paparazzi photographer. Actresses don’t

       like paparazzi photographers.
33 (cynically) Oh, what a pity! I’m dying to be a paparazzi photographer! But for you – I’ll

       shoot hippopotami on National Geographic, and not beautiful actresses for magazines.
