[asking and giving opinion markers in bold type]




- That was a great concert last night, Scarlett.
- Thanks.
- As we know, Scarlett’s got a new CD coming out soon. So let’s have a look at the best way we can promote it in France.
- OK, well … I think Scarlett should visit the major music stores. In my opinion, that’s the best way to meet her fans.
- I’m not so sure. What do you think, Jacques?
- Actually, I don’t agree with Mark. Scarlett isn’t commercial in that way.
- Scarlett? Scarlett?
- I agree with Jacques. I don’t have a commercial image. It isn’t my style.
- OK, but Scarlett needs more publicity. What about a series of TV and radio interviews? Don’t you agree?
- Yes, but that’s what everybody does. What we want is something different.
- Personally, I think Scarlett should tour clubs and summer festivals. She can DJ, play her favourite music, play the new CD, and meet her fans, too.
- Yes, absolutely. That’s a much better idea. Mark?
- OK, why not?
- Scarlett?
- I think…that’s a great idea. Thank you, Jacques.
