Neil: I like cheese and I love all cheesy food. (Short pause) but I dont like this music youre playing its too cheesy. Li: Too cheesy? Do you mean the music is no good? Its Christmas Neil: Well its all right for this time of the year and it goes with the festive mood. But generally speaking its too predicable, cheap and cheerful. Lets listen to a couple of examples: A: Would you like to go to the pantomime next week? I thought it might be fun. B: Em I know children love it but I find it a bit too cheesy. I used to love it as a kid. A: Hi everyone I am organising our Christmas dinner. How about going back to The Cheshire Cheese pub? B: The food was excellent, but you know what? The music there was a bit too cheesy, A: Cheesy? Of course. Maybe thats why the pub is calledThe Cheshire Cheese. |
