An extra exercise

M: A concert? What's it about?

W: It features recent pop songs. _______________?

M: Hmm, I _____________ pop songs when I was in

high school, but now I'm no longer a big fan. Pop

songs go out of fashion too quickly. I'm beginning

to ________ old folk songs.

W: Many older people find those songs cool, and my

parents ____________ them too. By the way, a

program of golden oldies was on TV yesterday evening.

M: Oh, what a pity! I missed it.

W: I have a DVD of oldies. I can lend it to you if you want.

M: Oh, that would be great. I ________ hear them.
