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
