New friends 1.5 Culture Unit1 Speed dating 1Read the first paragraph of the article and answer the questions. a What is speed dating? _______________________________________________________ b Where did speed dating start? _______________________________________________ c How much time have you got to talk to each person?___________________________ Speed dating Speed dating started in the USA and quickly spread to Europe. The idea is to meet a number of different people in the same room. In a short time you must decide if you want to see them again in the future. You have just seven minutes to talk to each person. After that time, you must end the conversation and move on to the next person. How does speed dating work? You can take part in speed dating now. Just register with us. It’s easy! We will tell you about your nearest speed dating venue. When you arrive, we give you a number and tell you where to sit. You have seven minutes to talk face-to-face with your partner. Find out as much as you can! After that time, you must move on and talk to a different person. Don’t exchange personal information (your address and phone number, for example). And it isn’t a good idea to talk about work or money! After a few conversations with different people, it’s time to make a decision. Who do you want to see again? Tell us (in secret, of course!) If that special person also wants to see you, don’t worry. We will send you an e-mail with all the contact details. Your questions, our answers + Who can take part? – Anybody over eighteen who wants to meet other people. It doesn’t matter if you are shy, sociable, tall, short, black or white — everyone is welcome. + Can I go with a friend? – Yes, but they must register first. And don’t forget that the idea is to meet new people. + What happens if I get scared and don’t go to the venue? – Nothing! But you risk missing the man or woman of your life! 2 Read the rest of the article. Write true (T) or false (F). Correct the false sentences. a If you want to take part in speed dating, go to the venue and register. ___________________________________________________________________ F – You must register on the web-site first. b After seven minutes, you can stay with the same person if you like them. ___________________________________________________________________ c You can give someone your phone number and address. ___________________________________________________________________ d If you like someone, you tell the organisers. ___________________________________________________________________ e You can’t take part in speed dating if you are nineteen. ___________________________________________________________________ f You can take a friend with you when you go speed dating. ___________________________________________________________________ g If you don’t go to the venue, the organisers will punish you. ___________________________________________________________________ 6 © Richmond Publishing, 2004 PHOTOCOPIABLE
