Ronald Barret is talking about the social programme ar-
ranged for him and his colleagues during his visit to Federal Con-

Underline the verbs in the Present Continuous.
«Well, on Monday night we’re all having dinner together at
the Stork Club to sort of get to know each other; the next evening
we’re going to an exhibition of sculpture at the museum of modern
art, after which we’re eating at the hotel. On Wednesday afternoon
I’m playing golf with my opposite number, Joe Bellisario. In the
evening we’re meeting the others for cocktails and then taking a
trip round the bay in a hydrofoil. On Thursday we’re all attending
a reception given by the cultural attaché at the British Embassy;
that is from 9.30 until late. Friday night is going to be busy: I’m
joining Joe and his family at the Rainbow Room for a pre – theatre
dinner, then we’re going to see ‘Dream girls” at the Imperial
Theater. On Saturday we’re visiting the model factory on Long
Island and then flying out from Kennedy after Lunch!»

Now look at this page from your diary. From the information
given in it, write down seven sentences describing what you are
