Listen to the tape then answer this question. Which John Smith does Graham Turner think he is talking to?
GRAHAM TURNER: Is that you, John?
JOHN SMITH: Yes, speaking.
GRAHAM TURNER: Tell Mary we&`&ll be late
for dinner this evening.
JOHN SMITH: I&`&m afraid I don&`&t understand.
GRAHAM TURNER: Hasn&`&t Mary told you?
She invited Charlotte and me to dinner this evening.
I said I would be at your house at sixo&`&clock,
but the boss want me to do some extra work.
I&`&ll have to stay at the office. I don&`&t know when I&`&ll finish.
Oh, and by the way,
my wife wants to know if Mary needs any help.
JOHN SMITH: I don&`&t know what you&`&re talking about.

aren&`&t you?

I&`&m John Smith the telephone engineer
and I&`&m repairing your telephone line.
