GUIDED WRITING Sentence Combination Reference version: Telephone calls in Britain are in two classes: local calls and trunk calls. Short distance calls of up to about twenty miles are classed as local calls, and all calls over longer distances are classed as trunk calls. In London, telephones now have all-figure numbers which do not include an exchange name: for example, 01-222 2870. If you make a local telephone call in London to a subscriber in London, you omit the 01 and dial only the last seven figures of the number of the person whom you are calling. To make a trunk call to or from London, you dial all the figures of the subscriber s number.The names, addresses and telephone numbers of subscribers in inner London are at present printed in four directories. There are separate directories for people whose names begin with the letters A to D, E to K, L to R, and S to Z. When you look up a person s number in the telephone directory, you will find his name on the left side of the column and his telephone number on the right side. Precis Writing Reference version: I don t like the telephone as I consider it a pest and a time-waster. Furthermore, when an expected call doesn t come, it causes anxiety and suspense, and when the line is busy, it causes an irritating delay. Public phones are even worse. You have to queue up, the phone-box is stuffy and smelly, and you feel the eyes of the people waiting to use the phone after you. A phone in the house tends to ring at the most inconvenient times. The trouble is that one is not strong-minded enough to ignore it, though this would be quite all right, as news, whether good or bad, travels fast. If you re indiscreet enough to have your name and number printed in a telephone directory, you ll receive annoying calls of all kinds. Perhaps you ll have a phone for out-going calls only. But is that necessary? There are always public phones nearby if emergency arises. If I were a tycoon or an invalid, I might need a phone. Ah, I m wanted on the telephone. I d better answer it, there might be something important. 3 IV. Translation A. 1.
