MARCELA: Me dieron tiempo libre en el trabajo. He deseado esto por más de un año.

RICARDO: ¡Que bueno!, te lo mereces, ¿qué vas a hacer?

MARCELA: Bueno no lo he planeado todavía, esto fue algo inesperado, creí que me iban a negar las vacaciones.

RICARDO: Me imagino que estás muy alegre. Siempre es bueno un descanso. Para quitarse todo ese cansancio acumulado por meses.

MARCELA: Sí claro, y la verdad lo que siempre me ha gustado hacer para relajarme es leer, tengo ganas de comprar un buen libro y sentarme a leer por horas.

RICARDO: Leer puede ser muy relajante. ¿Que tipo de lectura te gusta?

MARCELA: Me gusta el suspenso y el drama. ¿Y a ti?

RICARDO: Te voy a decir la verdad, yo nunca he sido fanático de la lectura.

MARCELA: No te lo creo, Ricardo, ¿de verdad no te gusta?, entonces, ¿qué haces con tu tiempo libre?

RICARDO: A mí me gusta hacer deporte. Correr, nadar, jugar fútbol con mi hijo en el parque, ese tipo de cosas.

MARCELA: Que diferentes somos, yo siempre he odiado hacer deporte.

RICARDO: Seguro por eso somos tan buenos amigos, dicen que los polos opuestos se atraen.

----Formal English----

MARCELA: I was given some time off from work. I’ve been wishing for this for over a year.

RICARDO: That’s great! You deserve it…what are you going to do?

MARCELA: Well, I haven’t planned it yet; this was something unexpected. I thought they were gonna deny my vacation time.

RICARDO: I can imagine you are very happy. A rest is always good to get rid of all that fatigue you’ve accumulated for months.

MARCELA: Of course. The truth is that I’ve always loved to read to relax. I wanna buy a good book and sit and read for hours.

RICARDO: Reading can be very relaxing. What kind of books do you like?

MARCELA: I like suspense and drama. And you?

RICARDO: To tell you the truth, I’ve never been a fan of reading.

MARCELA: I don’t believe you, Ricardo…you really don’t like it? So, what do you do with your time off?

RICARDO: I like to do sports…running, swimming, playing soccer with my son at the park…that sort of stuff.

MARCELA: We sure are different; I’ve always hated to do sports.

RICARDO: I’m sure that is why we are such good friends. They say the opposite poles attract.
