Не told him she was in London.

He told him she had been to London a few times.

He told him he would be in London soon.

I said my name was Mary.

I said I had been to London a few times.

I said I would try to go to London the next summer.

At the office

Text

At the appointed time Ivan arrived at Mr. Freiser's office by car. Mr. Freiser greeted Ivan with warm smiles and kind words.

Frank: Oh, Ivan I haven't seen you for ages. How are you getting on these days?

Ivan: Not bad. I hope you are doing well too.

Frank: I would say so. How are your classes, young man?

Ivan: I understand you are kidding but I like the sessions we

are having here. There are a few important things 1 have

learned here. And I've met some businessmen whose

business looks very promising for us.

Frank: Good for you. And would you like some tea or coffee

before we get down to business.

Ivan: Some coffee, please.

Frank: The secretary will bring coffee for us in a minute.

Ivan: I believe we could speak about our business now, if you

don't mind.

Frank: I agree with you here. We studied your enquiry for our security devices and we could offer you some very mod­ern ones.

Ivan: Could I see them while I'm here? Then it will be much easier for me and the General Director of my company to make a decision about the range of devices to buy.

Frank: No problem. Our Production Director will take you to our production shop and you will see all the devices we are offering to our customers at present. We have sold quite a lot of each type and we have not got a single complaint. They have never failed our customers.

Ivan: It sounds very convincing. And will the Production Di­rector be coming soon?

Frank: The Secretary will invite him after we have coffee.

Ivan: I see.

Frank: By the way, here is the latest organigram of our company. You may have a copy if you wish.

Ivan: Thank you. It will help me to speak with the Production Director.

 

Here is the organigram of Mr. Freiser's company:
