NEW · Speaking Mode: Tap Start speaking and wait for “Listening”. Tap Stop speaking when you finish your answer. Then review the transcription and check your response. Help reveals words, a starter and finally a model; help is recorded. Short pauses are allowed.
Read, listen, or speak your way through a short, realistic hotel breakfast interaction on your last morning in New York before leaving for JFK Airport. The buffet is self-service, but hot drinks must be requested from the breakfast staff.
Some answers are clear, polite, and practical. Other answers are too vague, too literal, or misunderstand everyday hotel breakfast phrases like “How do you take it?”, “regular coffee”, “refill”, “all set”, “to-go cup”, and “self-service”.
You can recover by using repair language such as: “Sorry, let me be clearer”, “With a splash of milk, no sugar, please”, “I’m all set, thank you”, “Could I get a to-go cup?”, and “I’ll keep the mug here.” At the end, review your result and submit it to your teacher/tutor.
- It is your last morning in New York. You are having breakfast at the Midtown Parkview Hotel before heading to JFK Airport for your return flight.
- The buffet is self-service, but coffee, tea, and other hot drinks must be requested from the breakfast staff.
- Your goal is to order a hot drink, specify milk or sugar preferences, mention that it is your travel day if useful, ask for a to-go cup if needed, and close politely before leaving for the airport.
