If you buy something from a shop, a new stereo for example, you usually canīt wait 犲t in and put some music on. And of course, you expect 慯he equipment in working order. But that doesnīt always happen., unortunately. If the thing doesnīt work, you should take it straight back to the shop. If you delay 犲t back, you will risk 懢our rights as a customer. And you should prepare 䰄n those rights. You may be� one of those people who always avoid Đðith people, but in this case you should be ready for an argument. The assistant may prove 蟵 true friend of the customer- itīs not impossible- but first he or she will probably
offer 慯he stereo for you. Thatīs all right if you donīt mind 蟵 few weeks, but it isnīt usually a good idea. What you should do is politely demand 懢our money back inmedialtely. You may want to accept another stero in place of the old one, but you donīt have to. You should refuse 蟵 credit note. Just keep on 慯hat you want your money back.
Choose the correct form of the verb.
I used to like going to our local cinema. It was old and rather uncomfortable, but it had character. Now theyīve stopped 霡ilms there. The owner would like to go on 慯he cinema, but he would need 蟵 lot of improvements, which would mean 慯ens of thousands of pounds. I remember the last film at cinema. It was a murder mystery. It was five minutes from the end, and we were trying 䰄ut who the murderer was when suddenly all the lights went out and the film stopped. We sat in the dark for a few minutes, and then the owner appeared with a torch. īI regret 懢ou, `he said īthat our electricity has failed. I donīt mean 懢ou, but Iīm afraid we canīt show you the end of the film. Weīve tried 慯he electricity company, but they say they canīt help.īHe went on 慯o the audience how the film ended. I didnīt understand the story. But I donīt regret 慯o the cinema on that last evening.
