When is your birthday English Speaking Practice

[Music]

birthday

buy a birthday gift for a friend

hello tom kevin is speaking

hi kevin how are you so so

are you on a business trip now

yes i’ve gone on a mission for one week

what’s the problem man well

no problem i just want to ask you

something about running a business

we can exchange through the call if not

important

fine but wait you’re overseas

so do you return home in time for emma’s

birthday

gonna return right on her birthday

you won’t probably buy gifts for her

will you

no i tend to buy a birthday present when

i go back to america

how about you not yet

recently i’ve been too busy to choose a

gift for emma

will you go with me certainly

exactly when seem to not have enough

time because you’ll return home

right on her birthday so in the

afternoon of that day when you just get

back

that’s fine i’ll pick you up around

three or four o’clock when

being on the way back from the airport

okay let’s do that

[Music]

hey tom you’re late my flight was

delayed one hour

damn it sorry my man it doesn’t matter

i just simply said it

now where do you go i want to go to the

mall of america

what about your idea mall of america is

fine

let’s go there

[Music]

what kind of gift do you prepare for her

birthday tom

i’m thinking i don’t know the way how to

choose a gift for a girl

many ideal items for them is like

lipstick

accessories skin pair products and so on

i tend to buy a violin for her because

she wants to begin the musical journey

from playing instruments

sounds great i think she’ll be very

delighted to receive it

once there there are many kinds of

violins for you to choose from um

[Music]

eventually we’re there mall of america

let’s go to the third floor first where

they sell several musical instruments

okay it’ll take much time for us to

choose

why did you choose the violin as a

birthday gift

not saxophone harmonica or cello

that day when you were on a business

trip our high school grade had a meeting

do you remember that i remembered that

emma said she wanted to learn to play

the violin

so i decided to buy the violin as her

birthday present

so it’s like that welcome

to the world of violin

excuse me i’m looking for some designs

of violin this year can you show me

will you buy it for a novice person

knowing to play or professional player

because the violin is divided into

different levels

which depends on the level of the violin

player

for a fresh beginner she uses it for a

long time she wants to become a

professional

player therefore i want a violin that

has

wood material that is of the highest

quality

our store has violins that are built

from cold and dried wood and assembled

by highly skilled craftsmen

i think violin with that quality is

suitable for emma to learn and further

develop her musical career later as well

i go along with that excuse me show me

those violins thank you

this way please

[Music]

i will browse i’ll call you later thanks

tom which color do you prefer i’m

considering

brown and black let me see

personally i prefer the black to the

brown

but emma likes her musical instruments

and light colors

except for piano and grand piano just

black and white

i think so but the brown color is a bit

dark

i want a lighter but the lighter violins

here don’t catch my eye

they’re over there kevin i see some that

you like

oh look at these exactly what i’m

finding dude

i want to take it at first sight it’s

got light brown and extremely high

quality

let’s pay for it now excuse me

wrap it for me and how much is the total

your payment is two thousand two hundred

dollars

here you are thank you very much

thank you and goodbye sir hope you’ll be

back soon

tom did you think of what gift you will

give emma

yes uh i’ll buy some perfume for her i

saw when

when we were going across that store

what brand hermes hermes 24 fiber

its fragrance is so mild and brings us a

pleasant feeling

i think it is suitable for her she is

also a perfume collector as well

that’s a bright idea take it tom

surely kevin do you think we need to

create our own birthday card for emma

this makes our gift more meaningful

totally agree let’s do that together

at the birthday party

[Music]

oh hi my boys wow i’m so excited just

looking at the gifts that both of you

brought come on guys

you have a fabulous birthday emma wish

you all the best

i hope you have a fantastic day and a

fantastic year to come

many thanks tom and kevin

wow how big the birthday party is emma

because i want to celebrate my 25th

birthday party

as fancy as possible

[Music]

hey emma what gifts do you like to

receive on your birthday

everything people give me it doesn’t

matter

okay let’s sit down to chat together it

has been a long time since we have

talked in person

now let’s unwrap your gift and i guess

you’ll be

on cloud nine when you see the two

birthday gifts

really what kind of present could make

me feel like that

open it and you’ll know oh my gosh

i can’t believe my eyes

one violin and one hermes perfume i

really love them

i love you guys

how did you know i had a plan to learn

play violin

who told you kevin chose the violin for

you

tell me how you know kevin i’m so

surprised

i simply heard you say that you wanted

to learn at the meeting of our high

school grade

oh i like that you remember that

i’m so appreciative tom you

bought perfume which i’m gonna buy to

collect you’re the best guys thanks a

ton

no problem our bestie emma

today is your 25th birthday so what was

your most memorable

birthday except this one

i think my five-year-old birthday has

been the most memorable until now

why my parents gave me a grand piano

and my grandparents gave me a guitar as

my birthday present

wow those are two great gifts

yes but i didn’t like or

in other words i hated playing musical

instruments at that time

i felt not being gifted with enjoying

music

but you learned unhappily because they

forced you to do it

hmm i couldn’t say that because thanks

to it i realized gradually that

i love music it really brings me comfort

when i’m under pressure

glad to hear that they’re also the best

birthday gifts i’ve ever received

yours as well those gifts paved the way

for my career i’m

so grateful and now your plan is

learning to play the violin and

seriously starting the musical journey

right yes i want to become a

professional instrument player

emma why do you celebrate your birthday

near the swimming pool

swimming pool party definitely

we’ll have a swimming pool party in a

few minutes

really of course

i didn’t say anything to anyone

i take it by surprise surely i have to

push both of you down into the pool

no way you better believe it

this talk is enough and let’s come there

and let your hair down at my birthday

party

let’s go
