Reading & Writing I’m glad that we’re going to the cinema together next week. I’m busy on Monday so why don’t we go on Tuesday instead? I’ve already seen The Ship and I heard that Space Journey isn’t very good so I think we should watch Last Summer. I have a volleyball game until 8.30 pm so the 9.30 show is better for me. Don’t forget we’ll get the cheaper tickets because we’re still at college.

Reading & Writing Your friend has made some suggestions. Complete your diary for next week with the following information: 1. Which film to see together? 2. The day to go. 3. The time the film starts. 4. The cost of your ticket.
