No. But they used to be good when we were young.

　　The trouble is that the young people don’t work hard.

　　No, but they used to work hard when we were young.

　　Monologue:

　　Ten years ago, I loved watching television and listening to pop records. I hated classical music. But I liked playing tennis. Five years ago I still liked playing tennis, but I loved classical music. Now I prefer classical music. I like playing squash. But I hate television.

　　Music or Money?

　　Mr. Davies is talking to his son Martin.

　　Mr. Davies: (quietly) Why aren’t you doing your homework?

　　Martin: I’ll do it later, Dad. I must get these chords right first. Our group’s playing in a concert on Saturday.

　　Mr. Davies: (laughs) Oh, is it? You’ll be making records next, will you?

　　Martin: We hope so. The man from ‘Dream Discs’ is coming to the concert. So I’d better play well.

　　Mr. Davies: You’d better get on with your homework! You can practice all day Saturday.

　　Martin: Oh, Dad. You don’t understand at all. This concert could change my life.

　　Mr. Davies: It certainly could! You’ve got exams next month. Important ones. If you don’t get a good certificate, you won’t get a decent job.

　　Martin: (rudely) I don’t need a certificate to play the guitar. And I don’t want a boring old job in a bank either.
