12회차 Role-play 제안하기
I'm sorry. There's a problem you need to solve. The movie starts from 10 pm which you feel is too late. You need to explain your concern to your friend and offer two or three alternatives.

롤플레이 과제는 두 개가 연속으로 나오는 경우가 많다. 바로 전 문제에서 주어졌던 상황과 연결하여 이해를 해야 한다. 영화를 보러 가기로 해서 영화에 관해 질문을 한 후, 너무 늦은 시간에 영화를 봐야 하는 상황이다. 이 때, 친구에게 전화를 걸어 다른 대안을 친구에게 제시해야 하는 것이 오늘의 과제이다.
OPIc Strategy
STEP 1. Brief a person the current situation.
주어진 상황을 잘 듣고, 자신의 말로 다시 상황을 요약하여 설명할 수 있어야 한다
.
STEP 2. Suggest acceptable alternatives.
상황에 어울리고, 상대방이 수긍 가능한 대안을 제시해야 한다. 상대방이 받아 들이기 힘든 제안을 피하자
.
!!
참고
!!
사실, 이러한 과제에 정답이란 없으므로 해결책을 제시하기 쉽도록 자신이 상황을 오히려 더 만들어서 제안을 하면 더욱 참신할 수 있다. 예를 들면, "전부터 네가 가고 싶어했던 레스토랑 있지? 거기 오늘 가볼까?" 라고 얘기하면 좀 더 자연스럽고 참신한 제안을 할 수 있을 것이다

모범답안

Hello, it's me.
I think we have a small problem now; do you know what it is?
It's about the movie we were planning to watch together this weekend.
The problem is that all seats are fully booked except for the late show.
The show doesn't start until 10 pm and it finishes at 1 am.
As you know my mom won't let me stay out that late.
So I guess it's better for us to see the movie someday next week.
What do you think?
Call me back soon.
*won't = will not  that late :
그렇게나 늦게
