2.5 At my college, we use first names with other students. With teachers, titles are really important. It’s always Dr Lewis or Ms Charles. It’s not polite to use first names with teachers. At home, first names are OK with family and friends. With friends of my parents it’s different. It isn’t polite to use first names with older people, so I use the title and family name, for example, I say Mr Davies or Mrs Davies. My father is a businessman. All the people in his company are young. It’s a small company and very informal and everybody uses first names. I’m not sure about other companies.

There are millions of people and thousands of shops. It’s great. For her job, Shizuka wears dresses and special boots. So, what does she do? Can you guess? She has a degree from Waseda University. But she doesn’t study now. She has another job. Any ideas? Shizuka has a pet dog. Her name is Charo. She’s a shih tzu. Shizuka misses Charo when she travels.
