Lisa was her best friend so she wanted to get her a great present. But what? Then she heard someone in the hall and Nasreen came in. “Morning, Emma. You’re up early,” yawned Nasreen. “Yeah, Lisa’s birthday is this week and she’s going to have a party … .” “What are you going to buy her, Emma?” “You always have good ideas. Can you help me, Nasreen?” asked Emma. “Emma, you’re the shopping maniac! And I don’t know what Lisa likes!” “Please, Nasreen. I need your help! I promise to clean our room… .” “OK, Emma. OK … . We can go shopping this afternoon. But I only have an hour. I’m going to Ben’s house at five o’clock.” “Great! Umm… one other thing. I don’t have much pocket money left … .” “Well, I don’t have any pocket money to lend you. I’m sure we can find something that isn’t too expensive,” answered Nasreen. B After school Emma and Nasreen went to Greenwich to look for Lisa’s present. First they decided to go to Emma’s favourite clothes shop, Street Style. Emma really liked the clothes there because they were very trendy. “Look at these trousers! They’re so cool. I’m going to try them on,” said Emma. “Emma, we’re looking for a present for Lisa and we haven’t got much time.” “Oh, right. OK … . Well, I don’t think this is the right shop for Lisa. Clothes aren’t that important to her.” C Then the girls went to two CD shops and a bookshop, but they did not find anything. “Let’s go to the sports shop!” said Emma. “Emma, it’s ten to five. I must go. Maybe your friends can help you now,” suggested Nasreen. “Good idea! I can call Terry. He knows all about sports!” D “Thanks, Terry,” said Emma to Terry outside the sports shop. “You’re a great help! I don’t know much about football.” “No problem. They have a lot of football stuff here from all the London teams: Arsenal, Chelsea, … . Hey, you can get her an Arsenal poster,” suggested Terry. “I think she already has a poster. But this shirt is cool,” said Emma. “Emma, that’s a Chelsea shirt! You have no idea!” “Oh, yeah … . It’s too expensive, anyway!” Everything was too expensive. Emma could not decide. 3 Check-in Language Story Wordwise Check-out Nur zu Prüfzwecken – Eigentum des Verlags öbv
