Task 5
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for coming. Today
I will be providing you with information on the structure and
running of Masaryk University. I've divided my presentation
into three parts: first we'll deal with the various schools and
faculties, then we'll focus on the different courses (omit and
stuff like that completely), and lastly we'll look at the day-
to-day running of the whole institution. There'll be an
opportunity to ask questions and discuss issues at the end of
my talk, but do interrupt me if there's anything you don't
understand.

Some guidelines to determine the level of formality:
Length -- the longer the word or phrase, generally the more
formal
Phrasal verbs -- usually informal, but note exceptions e.g. Fill
in/out a form, look forward to
Particular words like get, stuff, things -- usually informal
Active/passive -- not using pronouns makes a phrase more formal
Origin -- generally words from French and Latin are more formal;
Germanic words are less formal
