Lesson 2
Read the dialogue carefully then answer the questions
Dana: Hey, Mei. Alex told me that you had the results of our book survey.
Mei: Yes, that’s right. Over 100 students answered the survey.
Dana: Oh, that’s good. So, what were the results?
Mei: Hold on. Let me find them on my computer. Here we are. Well, everyone said that they enjoyed reading, so that’s a good start! A lot of children like reading books that are films, too. Most students said that they liked adventure stories, detective stories, and mystery stories best.
Dana: That doesn’t surprise me. They’re the most exciting. What do they not like?
Mei: A lot of students said that they didn’t like drama.
Dana: My older sister, Majeda, loves it. She told me that it was her favourite type of book. What about biographies?
Mei: Hmm, most students said that they didn’t read biographies very often and only one person said that biographies were their favourite type of book.
Dana: Can you tell me some of the other results?
Mei: Sure, no problem. Some students said that they used recipe books at home. Also, some students said that they enjoyed reading self-help books, but only two students said that they liked poetry.
Dana: What a shame! Poetry is cool. Maybe we should have a poetry competition on the website to get more students interested.
Mei: That’s a good idea!
