Now we are ready to start. Good afternoon. Today we have asked five people to give us a short interview and share their opinions about birthday parties. Now we would like to present their opinions to you.
Speaker A: I'm sure that a birthday is a special day for any of us. Some people may like spontaneous parties, but I believe we should do our best to organize a great party on this day. It's necessary to think about everything beforehand, like making a list of guests and buying food and soft drinks and writing up a menu so that there's nothing there your guests are allergic to, and thinking of entertainment or even small gifts for your guests.
Speaker B: In my opinion, when you invite guests to your birthday party, the most important thing to think about is definitely what will be on the table for your guests to eat. There must be a delicious birthday cake with cream, chocolate and maybe fruits and berries. It will impress your guests. There must be other dishes as well, maybe chicken or fish and juices. Everything must be fresh and tasty. A catering service could definitely help you there.
Speaker C: As for me, I love surprise parties. They show you how much your friends and relatives care for you and love you. It's especially good when your birthday is on a usual workday and you don't actually plan anything in particular. Well, maybe a tasty cake from your parents. You enter the hall and you see all your friends standing around shouting “Happy Birthday!” The hall is decorated with balloons and you didn't have any idea about it.
Speaker D: If you ask me, I think a really good birthday party must leave a lasting impression on people. Nobody gets excited about a party with cakes and clowns for entertainment. You can call a special agency and ask them to organize something special for you. A quest party, a fancy dress ball or any theme party which will be a real treat for your guests. Now there are book or film-themed parties to which guests come dressed as characters from a book or film they like.
Speaker E: I don't actually like inviting a lot of people to my birthday party and I try to avoid going to birthday parties if a lot of guests are expected. I think it's good when all the guests know each other at a birthday party. A limited circle makes it more comfortable for people to communicate and take part in the entertainment program you have for them. It's not very pleasant to be at a party if you know nobody there and have nobody to talk to.
