A B1-level version of a short story by F. Scott Fitzgerald.

I talk about aeroplane and airport language before starting this romantic story of two people, who haven't seen each other since they were at school, meet again when adults.

You can find the transcript of the story at: https://www.practisingenglish.com/podcast-168.htm

Here is a link to a Pdf extract from my new book: "B1 English Vocabulary Builder" so you can see how it works and how it can help you reach a B1 English level.
