When were you born may I ask ?
On 20th May 1963 .
Do you know what it was according to the lunar calendar ?
27th day of the fourth month .
By the way , could you tell me when the film will begin ?
It will begin at five thirty .
I am frigid I can't be there on time .
You can see it tomorrow .
I don't want to miss it today .
See you .
Hello , I'd like to see Mr . Charles , the manager , please .
You don't make any prior appointment , do you ?
No . I haven't , but I'll take only a few minutes of his time .
Please tell your name , company and the nature of your business .
Yes . My name is Lin Tao , the director of Guangzhou Computer Corporation .
I see . Wait a minute , please .
What is wrong with Peter ? He sure looks unhappy .
His girlfriend dumped him , and he is tearing his heart out over her .
How foolish he is . The girl is inviting . She often makes a pass at boys .
Excuse me , sir . But please call an ambulance . My friend suddenly got a sharp pain in the stomach .
Is he all right ? There's a big hospital just around the corner .
Oh , is there ? Will you find someone to take us to the hospital then ?
All right , sir . I'll have someone to take you there . By the way , is he insured ?
Yes , he is .
Hey , Benjamin , have you finished your report on the project ?
Not yet . To tell you the truth , I don't know how to write it . I've considered it for several days .
What ? Man , you don't know how to write a project report ? That's sounds a little bit ridiculous .
Don't laugh at me , please . I'm serious . I've never been required to write this kind of report before , I only do the research reports .
Oh , sorry , I've totally forgotten that you are a workaholic .
So what items must be involved in this report ?
First is your final conclusion on your work of this year , and then comes your plan for the next year .
Yeah , is that all ?
Let me see , no , you have to include more details about your final conclusion , for example , your experiences in dealing with some emergent events .
That's too complicated .
And only that doesn't make a perfect one , you also have to pay attention to the format of the report .
Oh , my God , is there any fixed for mat for it-the one that I just need to fix my information in ?
I'm sorry . There isn't . Because different people have to write different kinds of reports .
But I don't know how to work the Microsoft Words . Could you please give me a hand ?
I hear that you've been to the Saikei Ski Resort for the weekend . Did you enjoy it ?
Yes , it's so exciting , though I had the most falls in our skiing team .
Isn't there any coach to teach you how to ski ?
Of course there is . The top-level coaches there are from the State Sports General Administration .
Could you move smoothly ?
Yes . My face even ached in the icy wind .
What happened afterwards ?
I was skiing on and on excitedly until I realized one thing-I could not stop ! You can just imagine how terrified I was .
You say he was around average height .
Yes , that's right , around five nine five ten .
Weight ?
I'm not sure . Medium I suppose . Maybe a little on the heavy side .
Any marks on his face ?
No , I don't think so .
Glasses ?
No .
What about his hair ?
Black or dark brown .
Long or short ? Straight ? Curly ?
Straight , I think , and about average length
Where do you think we should go on holiday this summer ?
We , I ' d like to go to Australia . I know it ' s far to go , but I think it would be something different and special .
I ' d really like to go to the Caribbean . We can relax on the beached and enjoy the sunshine .
There are beaches in Australia too , but I would prefer a more active holiday this year . We could visit Ayers rock and the great barrier reef . It would be so exciting .
But would it be relaxing ? By summer . I ' ll be quite tired from doing so much work . The last thing I need is to use more energy racing around Australia . I ' d need another holiday to recover from the holiday !
Oh , come on ! A tour of Australia would be relaxing because you ' d be doing something different and not working .
Do you think so ? I ' m not so sure . Anyway , tell me your plans for an Australian holiday . How long do you think we should spend there ?
I think we should go for two weeks . We could spend a week in the bush and a week at the great barrier reef-including a few day on the beach for tired office workers !
That doesn ' t sound too bad . I ' d certainly like to go diving . That ' s one reason I wanted to go to the Caribbean .
We could hire a car and travel around the interior of Australia for several days . If we hire a car , we can go where we like .
We ' d have to plan our drive before we leave . Let ' s get a good guidebook from the bookstore when we go shopping in town tomorrow .
They are professors and government officials .
Where are they from ?
Most of them are from America and Europe .
What are they doing in Beijing ?
They are attending an international conference here .
Which hotel are they staying at ?
Would you like to stretch your legs ?
Sure .
Let's get a soft drink .
Do we have enough time ?
It's a fifteen-minute intermission .
The seats are excellent . We're right in the center .
It's a new concert hall and the acoustics are great .
I can't agree more .
Is this your first time to come to a symphony concert ?
In the United States , yes . But back in China , I went to concerts a couple of times with my parents .
Do you have large concert halls in your city ?
We have two . One is like this one . The other is a little smaller .
How do you think about our boss ?
He's the nicest boss I've had .
Yes , I think he's the most relaxing person in management .
What's more , he said I was the hardest working person in the office !
That's good . Maybe you'll get promoted .
Henry , don ' t get out of doing housework .
It ' s none of my business .
You mean that is my business .
I don ' t say that . But it seems to me the housewife should do that .
I ' m your wife , not a housewife . I have my own work .
What is your strongest trait ?
Adaptability and sense of humor .
How would your friends or colleagues describe you ?
( Pause a few seconds ) They say Mr . Chen is an honest , hardworking and responsible man who deeply cares for his family and friends .
What personality traits do you admire ?
Honest , flexible and easy-going .
What leadership qualities did you develop as an administrative personnel ?
I feel that learning how to motivate people and to work together as a team will be the major goal of my leadership .
How do you normally handle criticism ?
Silence is golden . Just don't say anything ; otherwise the situation could become worse . I do , however , accept constructive criticism .
What do you find frustrating in a work situation ?
Sometimes , the narrow-minded people make me frustrated .
How do you handle your conflict with your colleagues in your work ?
I will try to present my ideas in a more clear and civilized manner in order to get my points across .
To secure employment hopefully with your company .
How long would you like to stay with this company ?
You want to go to the movies tonight ?
Sure ! What ' s playing ?
The new Twilight movie !
Twilight ? As in the vampire movies ? No way , I am watching that , but I don ' t understand why everyone is so excited about these films about vampires . It doesn ' t make sense .
Of course it does . It ' s like a modern tale of Romeo and Juliet . You can see a couple who are in love but can ' t be together because they are so different . And in the fact that immortality and super human strengthen this really sexy and there you have it ! Plus the cast is hip , young people that make the movie even more enticing .
Hey ! What's up ?
Hi , John ! I haven't seen you for ages .
Yeah , I've been out of town .
So how have you been ?
Welcome to McDonald's . Can I take your order ?
Please give me this extra value meal , a red bean pie , and one order of vegetable salad .
Would you like something to drink ?
A cup of hot orange juice .
Will that be it ?
My friend Jean is very beautiful .
What's her figure ?
Perfect , and I like her charming eyes too .
What's the color of her eyes ?
Can I help you , sir ?
I want to find a book called Gone with the Wind . But I can't find it .
Let me give you a hand . The author is ...
Margaret Mitchell .
Oh , yes . Here it is .
Thank you very much . I have been looking for it for a long time . Is this the latest edition ?
Yes , we have both the paperback and hardcover . which would you want to buy ?
How about the price of the hardcover ?
It's $ 25 .
Listen , Christine , you can not afford another day off . You ' Ve called in sick five times in the last three weeks .
I know , Mr . Douglas . But I am really sick .
Well , I want a note from the doctor on this one . And , to be honest , if this continues , we may not be able to employ you here .
What do you think about all the different diets that people go on ?
I don't think dieting is good for you . It's much better to eat a balanced diet and to never get overweight to begin with !
But what do you think about people who are obese ? What should they do to lose weight ?
They need to eat healthy foods , but they also have to increase the amount of physical exercise every day . They don't have to cut out fattening foods altogether , though .
So you think it's OK for people who are dieting to eat chocolate , don't you ?
Sure , they can eat some chocolate . As long as they are exercising and eating mostly healthy foods , there's nothing wrong with having a small dessert .
How about drinking soda ?
Many people gain weight by drinking far too much soda . Soda should be treated seriously ; there's simply no nutritional value in it whatsoever .
And have you ever tried taking vitamins ?
I used to take vitamins every day , but I don't take them anymore . Vitamins are good as a supplement , but they don't do much good if you don't have a well-balanced diet to start .
How do you know so much about food and dieting ?
Hi , I'd like to have a beer .
Hi , good evening . Which kind of beer would you like ?
I'd like to try a local beer . What would you suggest ?
How about Yanking Beer ? It's very popular here .
Good morning . May I help you ?
Good morning , I have an appointment with Mr . Wang Li .
He's not in , I'm afraid .
But Could you tell me when he will be back ?
I am sorry , I don't know .
well , do you think I could leave a message for him ?
Valerie ! Hi ! Wow how have you been ? It ' s been such a long time !
Darlene ! Indeed , it ' s been a while ! How have you been ? Wow , you look amazing ! I love what you ' Ve done with your hair !
Really ? Thanks ! I went to that hair salon that you told me about , but enough about me ! Look at you ! You haven ' t aged a day since the last time I saw you ! What is your secret !
Ha ha , come on ! Well , I ' Ve been watching what I eat , and working out three times a week . By the way , I heard your son recently graduated !
Yes , my little Paul is finally a doctor . They grow up so fast you know .
He is such a handsome guy . He gets his looks from his mother of course !
Thank you ! What about your daughter , Pamela ? I heard she has passed the bar exam and married recently .
Oh yes . She had a beautiful wedding in Cozumel Mexico and we all attended .
Such a lovely girl . I hope my Paul is lucky enough to find a girl like that someday !
But of course ! Well , it ' s been great talking to you , but I have to get going .
Same here ! We will catch up soon , maybe over coffee !
That would be great ! Give me a call !
I'd like a refund on this sweater .
May I have a look at your receipt ?
Oh , here you are .
Hello , I'd like to see Mr . Baker for some business .
What time would you like to see him ?
Would 9:00 o'clock tomorrow morning be alright ?
Hello !
Hi , Jenny ! Jason here . It's great to hear your voice again .
Hi , Jason ! Long time no see . How's the hotel ?
It's pretty nice , but I'm going to start looking for an apartment soon . Hotel living is not for me .
I know what you mean .
How about you ? When are you leaving for Berkeley ?
I am leaving in two weeks .
So soon ! Well , I'd really like to see you again before you leave . Would you like to go out with me on Friday ? I'd like to take you to dinner and maybe a movie or something afterwards .
Oh , I am sorry , Jason . I've already got plans for Friday evening . How about Saturday ?
Saturday is fine . I'll make dinner reservations for 7 o ' clock . Is that ok ?
7 is fine with me .
Great . I'll pick you up at six thirty .
Which film shall we see ?
There is nothing good at the moment . Let ' s do something different . Would you like to go to a concert ?
Yes , I'd love to . Here is a good one , Mozart and Beethoven . It ' s on the Festival Hall . Shall we go there ?
Fine ! Do you want anything to eat now ?
No , I'm not hungry .
I am not sure what to do to get ready for my job interview .
Make sure that you understand the company . Do you understand what it is that they do ?
No , I probably need to do some more research .
When you've finished your research it will help you figure out whether your company is rigid in philosophy or kind of more relaxed . Does that make sense ?
I think that their attitude is rather casual .
So all of that information will help you to pick out what to wear . Do you have something to wear ?
I have absolutely nothing so far .
You know I could go shopping with you sometime if you need it , but can we talk about other basics ?
Yes , where should we go from here ?
Hi , Jenny . You look like you are in a hurry to somewhere . Where are you going ?
I am going to the bank . I need to cash some checks .
That's great . We can go to the bank together .
Why are you going there ?
I will go to Japan on business for 5 days next Tuesday . I want to exchange some Japanese yen .
I see . Will you bring a lot of money with you ?
Not really . I plan to bring some cash and withdraw money at the ATM in Japan .
Do you have the bank card in Japan ?
Nope . You can use the credit card to withdraw the money in foreign countries .
That sounds really convenient . Do you pay extra money to enjoy this service ?
No . It is free of charge .
Great ! I will apply for a credit card when I go to the bank later .
OK ... well , then how much is one jin ?
Ginseng comes in 6 different grades . It runs from 5,000 to 30,000 NT a jin .
30,000 NT for ginseng ? ! Do I have to buy a whole jin ?
You can get a liang if you want . A liang is one-sixteenth of a jin . That would be 330NT .
Whew ! That sounds more like my price range . I'll take two liangs .
I'll have my brother cut some for you .
This little red fruit looks good . What's it good for ?
That's a lucky fruit called hong zat ! People say that if you eat them , you will have your first son very soon !
Uh ... , I'm not even married yet . How about this brown dried fruit ?
Gui yuan are lucky , too ! If you eat them , you'll have a very sweet life !
And how about these little brown chips ?
Could you change this note for me , please ?
Yes . How would you like it ?
Eight tens , six ones and large silver for others .
OK , here you are .
Thanks .
This apartment is great , but could I upgrade a few things ?
What are you unhappy with ?
I want to have a different color carpet .
If you agree to pay more money , you could upgrade the carpet .
Would it cost a lot more ?
It could be as little as 2 dollars or as much as 10 dollars more per square yard .
I was also wondering if it would be possible to pick a different paint color .
Bring me a paint sample to look at , and I will consider it .
When can you finish with the new carpet and paint ?
Miss , the air-conditioner in my room doesn't work .
Adam . I ' m sorry .
Where have you been , Alice , you're over an hour late .
Yes , But I couldn ' t help it . I was late getting off work for a start and then I miss the bus . The bus I did catch that stuck in the traffic jam . It was one thing after another .
why ere you getting off work so late ? The office close at six , doesn ' t it ?
Yes . But those are the rush in that moment . And my boss ask me to do some urgent letters .
Didn ' t you tell him you have an appointment ?
Well , no . I thought I ' Ve finish in five minutes . and I didn ' t want to be difficult about just few minutes , if I hadn ' t been missing the bus and in the traffic I wouldn ' t have been so late . I ' m sorry .
I need some flowers for my wife . It's her birthday .
Very well . We have some fresh red roses .
How much are the roses ?
$ 20 per dozen .
That sounds like a good deal .
Yes , they're on sale today .
I'll take a dozen .
Splendid . Will there be anything else ?
No , the roses will be fine .
Hello , May I speak to Mary , please ?
Speaking , Who ' s calling please ?
Hi Mary , This is Tom .
Oh , Hi Tom , how have you been ?
Just fine . I see . Aren ' t you busying tomorrow evening ?
Let me see . Akha . No , I guess I ' ll be free .
Well , why not dine out together and go to the moves .
Sounds like a good idea .
Ok . I ' l l pick you up at 6 o ' clock .
Hello , sir . What can we do for you today ?
I'd like a trim .
Would you like your hair washed as well ?
No , thanks .
Okay , have a seat over here . How do you want it cut ?
Cut it short in the front , but leave it long in the back . Leave just a little over the ears .
So , John , what do you do for a living ?
I ' m a sales manager in a publishing company .
Oh , really ? That sounds interesting , what kinds of book do you publish ?
Oh , mostly fiction , lots of romance , science fiction , biography , stuff like that .
Oh , What a cool job ! How long have you worked there ?
Did you see the way that Brian came to work yesterday ? Ever since he came back from that conference in Silicon Valley , he's been coming to work dressed in jeans and sweatshirts . It's like he's decided to make himself at home in his office . I don't know how long it'll take before the management talks to him about it .
He was really influenced by the way they do things on the west coast . I guess the working atmosphere is a lot more relaxed and casual in California . It comes from the information technology industry .. there isn't such a large division between home and office , so people want to work in the clothes they feel more relaxed in .
Maybe so , but it seems kind of strange , which the rest of us in white shirts , dark suites , and ties .
It's not as bad as that ... We are allowed to wear more casual jackets and trousers . Besides , didn't you hear what Brian found on his desk this morning ?
What's that ?
I can ' t believe that Anthony is finally getting married !
Yeah well it ' s about time ! He ' s been living with his parents for 40 years !
Don ' t be mean . Look here come the bridesmaids ! Their dresses look beautiful !
Who are those kids walking down the aisle ?
That ' s the flower girl and the ring bearer . I ' m pretty sure they ' re the groom ' s niece and nephew . Oh , they look so cute !
I just hope the priest makes it quick . I ' m starving . I hope the food ' s good at the reception .
That ' s all you ever think about , food ! Oh , I think the bride ' s coming now ! She looks gorgeous . Wait , what ' s she doing ? Where ' s she going ?
Janice , do you still remember how our filing system works ?
Yes , I have read the Filling Instruction carefully , since you showed me it last week .
Very good . What is the essence of filing , do you know ?
The essence of filing I remember is to bring together in a single folder or file all papers relating to a particular subject . And outgoing and incoming letters are kept in this file cabinet .
Yes , ' One customer--one file ' is essential . And remember to update them timely .
And each file should be named clearly , either in block capitals or in jet black typed capitals .
Correct .
A card index is very important in the filing system . It is a most helpful friend to a secretary , so it must be kept handy and up to date .
Welcome to Galant . How can I help you ?
Hi . I would like to get an internet plan for my house .
Of course . We have three different plans with different prices you can choose from . The first one is the cheapest but most basic plan which is thirty dollars a month . This is for broadband internet with a download speed of five hundred and twelve kbps .
I have no idea what kbps means . I just want to be able to get online , play games and chat with my friends . Oh , and watch movies online as well .
Well , this connection might be a bit too slow for your needs . I suggest you get the premium package for fifty dollars a month which includes a connection speed of two megabytes . That way you can play games online without any lag . This package also includes a wireless router and a personal firewall absolutely free !
Do I have to pay an installation fee ?
Lucky for you , this month we aren ' t charging our normal installation fee . You are saving yourself 100 bucks right there ! And we ' ll throw in this pen drive !
Good morning , Jerry . How's everything ?
Fine , just fine . Thanks .
Doing anything for lunch ?
It's the Cygnet Trust .
Could you spell that please ?
Of course . C , Y , G , N , E , T .
Happy new year !
Thank you . Same to you .
Have you got any plans ?
I've been invited over to a friend ' s , and you ?
You look like in perfect condition .
I go to the gym every day to keep fit .
Which sports do you participate in ?
I've been doing yoga for a long time .
Can you tell me something about yoga ?
Yoga is used to promote people's physical , intellectual and mental harmony and healthy .
How do you feel when you practice yoga ?
Oh , I feel really tired and sweat a lot .
But it will help you keep fit .
Tom , how do you think of second-hand goods ?
Why did you ask that ? Do you want to buy the used goods ?
I'm considering buying a second-hand computer for I'm short of money now .
You know the car I'm driving , which is still in good condition though it is second-hand . And it only cost me 300 dollars . It was so cheap .
But do you really mean that the second - hand goods are just as good as the new ones ?
Do you know what you're going to do this weekend ?
I am going to see a movie with a friend of mine . What about you ?
I don't know .
Would you like to see a movie with me and my friend ?
Do you know what movie you're going to watch ?
I don't know , but was there a certain movie you wanted to see ?
None that I can think of .
Well , would you like to go ?
Thank you for inviting me , but I think I'll pass .
I hear that Helen does not relate very well to her husband .
Unbelievable ! I remember her husband is her former classmate . They fell in love with each other in college .
What's your expected salary ?
I expect to be paid according to my abilities .
How do you feel about an annual salary of 100,000 Yuan plus bonus .
That's a little less than I expected . But to me , the most important thing is the job and the people I will work with . Moreover , I am sure I will get a raise quickly depending on my background and experience .
That sounds very reasonable .
By the way , how long is my probation ?
Wish you have a blast .
Excuse me . May I come in ?
You've decided that you definitely want to purchase this particular one ?
To be honest , I haven't really done much research .
I would recommend that you at least glance through these brochures , just to make sure that you have selected the right policy for you . Take your time , Sir .
Thanks for your advice , after going through all of these materials I've decided not to go with my initial choice .
Hey John , nice skates . Are they new ?
Yeah , I just got them . I started playing ice hockey in a community league . So , I finally got myself new skates .
What position do you play ?
I ' m a defender . It ' s a lot of fun . You don ' t have to be able to skate as fast on defense .
Yeah , you ' re a pretty big guy . I play goalie , myself .
Oh , yeah ? Which team ?
The Rockets .
Really ? I think we play you guys next week . Well , I have to go to practice . See you later .
Please pull your vehicle over to the side of the road . Please roll down your window .
What's the matter , sir ?
Have you been drinking ?
No , I haven't , sir .
Really ? But I can smell alcohol on your breath . Blow to the breathalyzer , please .
But sir , I didn't drink at all .
If you refuse the blow , you'll receive a ticket and your vehicle will be impounded .
OK , I will blow .
Your BAC exceeds legal limit .
But I ...
I'll have to write you a ticket and impound your vehicle .
How often do you service the pump ?
We take very good care of this particular pump . It's a crucial part of our process . We clean it and flush it through at the end of every shift , We check the high pressure seals , recalibrate the gauges and lubricate all moving parts weekly . We replace the gaskets every month .
How do you decide how often these things need to be done ?
Does it look like a good fit ?
It's definitely your size .
Yes , it is very nice . I'll take it .
How do you prefer to pay ?
Let me use my credit card .
Now , if you'll just sign here .
No problem .
I think this suit displays your nice finger .
Thank you . Could you change it for a purple one ?
No problem .
Will it shrink when washed ?
Hey , Jeff , where's your stereo ?
I needed some money , so I hocked it last week .
You must have been really hurting for cash to have done that .
I had just enough money to make ends meet until payday . Then last Wednesday I received a phone bill to the tune of $ 195 . 00 . I hit the ceiling when I saw that .
It sounds like you weren't expecting that .
I'd forgotten that my brother had used my phone earlier this month to call his girlfriend . He forgot to mention that she happened to be in New York at the time 3000 miles away .
Well , if you need some money to tide you over until payday , I can loan you some .
What should you do if you find out a man may has an illegal departure in exit control point ?
We can inform the department in charge and ask for revocation of passport .
What else do you need to keep him in temporary custody ?
Can we talk ?
What about ?
I ' m not too clear on some things about my lease .
Is there a problem ?
How many years is my lease for ?
In three years your lease will be up .
Can I move out before those three years ?
If you do , I will keep your deductible .
Why would you keep it ?
I would keep it because you would be breaking our contract .
I get it now .
I'm planning to buy a bicycle . As you are quite a cycling enthusiast , I wish you might give me some advice .
With pleasure , chap . But before I start , I need to know what you want a bike for ?
My purposes are two-fold . On the one hand , I've grown bored of commuting on suffocating buses every day and decided to ride to work . On the other hand , bicycling is a sport , and I intend to build up my body through constantly taking a ride over the weekends .
Cycling during weekends ? Do you me riding on the mountainous countryside just the neighboring towns ?
Does that make any difference ?
Can't be greater . If you ride on bumpy , hilly roads , a mountain bike is what you need . But if you just ride comfortably along the city lanes , you might choose a road bike .
Are they designed differently ?
Here we come .
Thank you . What ' s the fare ?
$ 10 .
How can it be ?
Well , the rate is two dollars for the first two kilometers and twenty cents for each additional two hundred meters .
Is there a lot of crime in your city ?
There ' s some , but I don ' t think it ' s a big problem . A lot of it is petty crime , burglary and car theft . There ' s very little major crime .
It ' s the same in my city . We also have a lot of drug addicts . A lot of the crime is committed by drug addicts who need money for drugs .
That happens in many places . In my city , there is a very good drug rehabilitation program . The police and courts are also tough on people who commit crimes , but I don ' t know if that ' s the reason for our relatively low crime rate .
Some people believe that a tough approach is better . Other prefer a more lenient approach .
I think that the best way to reduce crime is to spread wealth more evenly . If most people have similar amounts of money , they will not think of stealing from others .
So do you think I can take it ?
I ' d stay over there , if I were in your shoes .
I know , but things are getting a bit out of hand and I just can ' t do nothing .
See your problem ? You get so restless when it ' s time to calm down .
Do you keep any pets , such as cats , dogs ?
No , I'm scared of cats .
Oh , but why ?
What would you like to be in the future ?
A teacher .
But if I were you , I would be a singer . You've got such a beautiful voice .
I wouldn't like to be a singer , but I'd like to become a music teacher to teach children to sing , That dream developed in my mind when I was a child .
Are you sure about that ?
What about you , Emily ? Have you dated anyone recently ?
I started to date someone recently , but it didn't work out .
That's too bad . What happened ?
What does she do ?
She works as a teller in a bank .
Does she go to night school ?
Yes . She goes three times a week .
Why ? What does she want to be ?
She wants to be a manager .
What classes does she take ?
Hello , Tom !
Hello , Steven !
How are you doing ?
Not bad . What about you ?
I'm just a little tired .
Why ?
I have a lot of work to do in the company recently .
How is your family ?
Pretty fine , thanks .
Where are you going now ?
I am going to buy a new air conditioner for my parents . Oh , it ' s two o ' clock . I must go now .
OK , see you next time .
Passport , please !
Here you are .
Are you Chinese ?
Yes , I am .
Where in China are you from ?
Fujisan Province .
There are a lot of people from China visiting right now .
It's not surprising . Our school year just ended , and a lot of Chinese are on vacation .
How long do you plan to stay ?
About half a month .
All right . Here's your passport . Welcome to Australia .
Hi Joe . You met my new assistant , right ?
Emm ... yes . But I wasn't too impressed . I found her a little stuck up .
You are kidding , but she's so helpful .
Tom ... you are her boss , you down . Of course , she's helpful to you .
Come on . She's like that with everyone .
What are you doing here ? How about your resume now ?
I still have no idea what to do now .
Don't act like this . Please have good thoughts in your mind . What's behind you ?
I could not agree with you more . But I feel worried about what to do next as soon as I begin to write my resume .
There is no need to do like this . We can surf the net and find some templates for resume .
Sounds good . I will do it in a jiffy . OK ! Let's put our heads together .
You said it . We can also find some helpful advice from some experts .
I just love your hair that way .
Thanks .
Where did you have it done ?
My sister did it . When did you get yours cut ?
Just yesterday . I'm still getting used to it .
Well , it looks very nice .
Is there anything I can dor you ?
Yes . I am looking for a restaurant with a cheerful atmosphere .
Why not go the youth restaurant ? You will have a happy lunch there .
Excuse me , I need your assistance .
Sure , what's up ?
I have no idea where my class is .
Tell me which building it's in .
My class is in the C building .
I know where the C building is .
Do you mind telling me where it is ?
Of course , which room number is it ?
Number 261 .
I actually have a class right around there .
Can you please show me ?
Hi , my name is Ted , what's yours ?
What ?
I said , I'm Ted , who are you ?
Huh ? Oh , my name is Laura .
Do you come here often , Laura ?
Huh ? I can't hear you , the music's too loud .
Let's go outside and talk . So Laura , do you come here often ?
Hold on , my ears are still ringing from the music ... what was it you asked me ?
I asked if you come here often .
Sometimes , usually once every few weeks . Do you ?
No , this is my first time here .
I usually come with a group of friends . We dance a little , have a few drinks , and just have a good time .
Yeah , that's why I'm here . My friends dragged me here , because they think I spend too much time studying .
That's good . It's good to hit the books , but you need to get out once in a while .
May I help you ?
My daughter . She is missing . I don ' t know where she is .
What dose she look like ?
She has blond hair and blue eyes .
What was she wearing ?
She has a yellow dress on and red sneakers .
When did you last see her ?
I just saw her down the street . I don ' t know where she is . I don ' t know ...
How long has it been ?
Can I help you ?
Yes , I'd like to have a look at the 2 - piece suit .
What size do you wear ?
Middle size
Then please look at this suit .
Does this suit come in other color ?
Yes , we have some in blue , green , black and brown .
How much is the brown one ?
US $ 138 .
Where is the bus ?
I think it's running late .
It should've been here 30 minutes ago .
It should be coming soon .
It better , because I'm already late for work .
I can't stand riding the bus .
Me too , it's so unreliable .
That is true .
It's also horrible having to be at a bus stop in any kind of weather .
Exactly . That ' s the worst part .
I think it's time we started driving .
How many people does your company employ ?
We have over sixty employees . We have about forty factory workers and technical people and the rest are admin and sales staff . We started off with only ten people , so our workforce has grown a lot .
What's your annual turnover ?
Excuse me . I've been waiting here for 15 mins . Do you know how often does No . 3 run ?
Oh , it runs every 20 mins . You must have missed it , when you came here . It should be here any minute now .
It seems that you have got here at a good time . Do you have a bus schedule ?
Yes , I do . You can go to the Transport Department to get yourself a bus schedule and a bus route map .
Look at this survey conducted by a website . A quarter of the employees will spend an average of 10 minutes everyday online doing personal things . Hi , Francis , what about you ?
Well , I just spend 15 minutes as so checking my stock bonds and booking an air ticket for my mother . Anyway , I have done all my work and it is about the time to leave .
Though our company doesn ' t have a return policy , limiting the personal use of internet , I don ' t think the boss will like us to do that .
Certainly , work always comes first .
But it is lucky for us . The company computers don ' t have software keeping tracks of websites we visit . I have shopped too often online these days .
We'll get a big bonus this year , won't we ?
I really need to apply for a driving permit .
Do you have your ID with you ?
I may have left my ID in my car .
Well , I need your ID and $ 27 .
I'll go get it really quick .
Please hurry .
Here it is .
Thank you very much . Please fill out this paperwork .
I need to use a pen .
Here you go .
Thank you very much .
Our unit is participating in a fundraiser this weekend and would like to borrow the van , if possible .
I would need to check on that . Where is the fundraiser ?
It will be at the beach by the pier .
What day will you need it for ?
We will only be needing it for Sunday .
Maybe that could work . I need to know who will be driving it .
The only two drivers will be Mary and I .
If I give you the keys to the garage , could you bring it back on Sunday evening ?
Sure . We also would like to use the chairs from the lunchroom . Would that be OK ?
Charlotte , have you had your supper ?
No , I don ' t want to eat anything .
Why ? Don't you feel well ?
I ' m down in spirits .
What's up ?
My manager jumped on me for my mistake today .
You must not feel depressed about such a trivial thing .
I think I'm too clumsy . I can do nothing well .
You'd better shape up if you want to get the job done .
But I doubt myself .
Thanks for helping me up .
Are you OK ? I didn't mean to put you in danger .
I'm the hazardous one here . I made three people fall over !
That takes talent ...
I'm so humiliated ! What's that man saying ? Everyone's laughing !
Excuse me , driver , where is the main area for restaurants ?
It's near the Wall Street , a bit far from there . Why not get on the car
OK . Is there a Chinese restaurant ?
Of course . More than that , you have Italy pizza , English steak , kimchi and local specialties .
Hi ! May I help you ?
Thank you ! I am interested in your product . But I am not familiar with your corporation .
In fact , in the past we only attended local exhibitions .
No wonder .
Here is our brochure . It'll help you get acquainted with our products and company .
Excuse me , sir . Can I look at your ticket ?
Wait a minute . I am really sorry but I can't find it now .
You must have left it somewhere .
Maybe , what shall I do now ?
Well , I think you should pay upon arrival .
Good evening . How many people of your party ?
Three . Two adults and one kid .
For buffet ?
Yes . How much do you charge for it ?
Thirty for each adult , twenty each kid .
I see . Where can I get the food ?
Please go to the tables over there for cold dishes and vegetables . The hot dishes are on the other side .
Do I need to pay extra charges for drinks like cola and juice ?
Billy , you are late again .
I'm sorry I'm late . I overslept . Is the manager here today ?
Yes he ' s in his office .
Oh , I hope he didn't notice me .
Don't take any chances . It'd be best if you told him and promised not to be late again . He's already mad at you for last 2 times . Any more and he might fire you .
You said it . It won't happen again . Do you really think he'd fire me ?
I think he might . You'd better go to his office .
You are probably right . I'll go right now and apologize . I try hard not to be late but it is difficult with Beijing traffic .
What can I do for you ?
I would like to buy two exquisite watches for me and my girlfriend .
We have many pairs for couples . Look at this counter .
This pair is Rolex , right ?
You have a very good taste , this pair is the latest product .
What function does this watch have ?
Both of them are luminous with a time reminder function . They don't need battery , because they can absorb energy from the sun .
Sounds good .
In addition , they are waterproof and shockproof .
How long is the guarantee ?
We guarantee the quality of the product for 12 months . We also provide a worldwide warranty .
How much does the pair cost ?
2,200 $ .
What would you like for dessert , sir ? We have a choice of cake or ice cream .
No , thank you . I don't need any . You see , I'm on a diet .
oh , well , perhaps you'd like a cup of coffee or tea instead .
Is there anything I can do for you ?
Yes . I've received this Remittance Advice from the bank .
Could I take a look at it , please ? Let me just check these details ... right .
Mr CK Chen contacted me this morning and asked me to come in for the remittance .
I've got the details here . 10,000 RIB sent by Mr CK Chen from Guangzhou . Could I see some ID ? You passport , for example ?
Here you go . Can I deposit some into my account and take some in cash ? I need 1,000 RIB for my expenses , you see .
I am very nervous about signing my escrow papers .
Escrow involves a lot of paperwork , but I will explain all of the steps to you as we go along .
What should I have brought with me ?
The only thing I will need to see is your driver ' s license , as I will be notarizing these papers .
I feel a little overwhelmed by so many papers .
Don ' t worry about how many papers there are . We are going to look at them one at a time .
My boyfriend is an attorney and told me that I could fax him anything if I had a question .
Please get any outside help that you need in understanding your escrow documents .
Is this the last thing that I will need to do before the house becomes mine ?
What else , Ma'am ?
No , thanks . My husband said , We'd like to pay now .
Let me show you to the cashier's . It's 905 yuan in total .
What ? Where does that five come from ?
Oh , it's a service charge .
But I only have 900 in cash here . Can you let it go for 900 yuan ?
Sorry , but we can't do that . It's store's rule .
My husband said he had a credit card . Do you accept credit card ?
Yes .
Great . Here it is .
Here is the receipt . Wanna to have it wrapped , Ma'am ?
Yes , please . Thank you very much .
It'll be great to have you again .
Hey , let's go to the night market after work tonight .
That's a good idea . I haven't been in a while and I need to get a new backpack . The old one is hanging on by a thread !
I've got to go home and study .
For what ?
The test tomorrow .
I'd like to buy one of these refrigerators . Do I have to pay in cash ?
No , we have an easy-payment plan . One-third down , and the balance in six months .
Fine . Will you work out the details , please ?
Certainly . Would you sit here please ? I'll call our credit manager .
Thank you .
It's just a formality , but for hire purchase we usually require references .
What kind of references do you need ?
Perhaps your employer could supply us with one .
I'm sure he could , but I prefer not to bother him . Would my bank do ?
Confronted with difficult questions in an interview , the job-hunters mostly will be at a loss about what to do .
Usually , you cannot prepare for these questions in advance and have to depend on your immediate performance .
Still , there are some rules to follow .
In this case , you should first keep calm and normal to the face .
Don't get nervous and freaked out .
Formulate a satisfactory answer based on your specific situation .
There should be neither too much silence nor hasty answers
Try to show the best of yourself with decent words and manners .
Don't be discouraged even when confronted with negative questions
You should admit your weakness frankly .
Anyway , what really matters is that you have tried your best .
Mr . Smith , I would like to get right to the point here . First , we need to talk about how much each company will pay .
Well , we want to have the largest share . Our company is much larger than yours , and we have been in business longer .
Let's look at that another way . The major point is the value that we add , not who has been in business longer , or is bigger .
What are you thinking about ?
We do not want to place ourselves in an inferior position . We are a good , small company---that's why you are interested .
Then , what would make you feel more comfortable ?
Can you tell me the results of my home inspection ?
Before I answer that , I want to make sure that you know what I was looking for . Are you clear on what I was looking for ?
I never had a home inspection before .
I inspect the home for problems that might not be all that apparent in a quick walk-through .
I asked the owners , and they said that everything was great with the house .
The owners might not be aware of everything wrong with the house . Some things are hidden , but might still be a problem for you in the future .
I heard that the owners must fix all of the problems before the escrow closes .
I inform you of the problems . If there are major problems , you can decline to buy the house or they may wish to fix any problems .
What kinds of things did you discover in my home inspection ?
I'm feeling wonderful .
Are you crazy ? The papers make everybody listless . I don't think you are the exception
I'm no exception , and that's why I spent a whole afternoon in the swimming pool .
Hey , what sort of drinks do you want ? Gatorade or water ?
Gatorade . It ' s rich in Vitamin and it gives us energy and vitality .
Yes , that ' s the exact thing we need . One for each .
What should we do , now with Jack out of the game ?
We should choose from the backups .
That ' s right . Spraining the ankle and breaking the leg are the common things during the match .
That ' s why we should learn to protect ourselves . Otherwise , the game is not worth the candle .
That ' s for sure . During the back court , we should change the position we played .
Yes , I played shooting guard , I like shooting and you ' ll play inside , OK ?
I agree with you . I think we ' ll play much better than before .
Wow , the cheer-section is coming . The music is so fantastic .
Yeah , look how passionate they are ! Are they professional ?
Well , you should ask your friend . You know I ' m not the boss . Just kidding .
Oops ! I almost forget about it . Do you see the girl in the middle of the first line ?
Yeah , what ' s up ?
Don ' t you think she looks like your daughter ?
John , my father isn't there at all . Are you kidding ?
Poor , fellow , what's the date today , buddy ?
It's ... oh it's the 1st April , April Fool's Day .
We cannot avoid being asked questions in the interview . Sometimes , my mind goes blank .
It is so terrible to be caught unaware .
Admittedly , you can get prepared in advance for the interview , but you cannot cover everything concerned .
Sure . So you should know how to deal with the probable questions and then make flexible reply .
Firstly , your answer should go straight to the point , and be clear and brief .
State your opinion or argument first , and then go on with details .
Never should you give an answer completely beside the point .
If you indeed don't know how to answer , admit it frankly .
Pretending to know when you do not know may expose yourself to ridicule .
Confirm the question if you don't catch it clearly .
Try to avoid the possible duplicate answer if you can .
Would you tell me how I should send this parcel to Shanghai , China ? It contains only books .
You might send it as'Printed Matter ' .
I wonder if I could have it insured here ?
Of course . How much would you want to insure these books for ?
Let me see ... I think I can have them insured for five hundred dollars .
Five hundred dollars , so you pay ten dollars for the insurance , that's two percent of the total value of the article .
Excuse me . Is this seat taken ?
No , it isn't .
Am I on right bus to Chicago ?
Oh , no . This is going in the opposite direction .
Oh , my God !
I suggest you get off at the next stop and ask again at the station .
I am looking for a comfortable convenient way to see the country .
Have you heard of motor coaching ? It's one of the fastest-growing segments for the travel industry .
No , I've not heard of it . Tell me about it .
It's almost like going on an ocean cruise except that you go by land . Everything is planned for you from the moment you step on board a luxury coach .
Is it just a bus ?
Oh . no . The motor coach is air-conditioned , there is a galley for food preparation , movies or music are available for your entertainment and attendants are there to take care of your every need .
Good evening . Welcome to our program .
Thank you . Good evening , Mr . Dean .
Would you tell us your name , please ?
I'm Helen Baker .
Glad to meet you , Ms . Baker .
Glad to meet you , too .
Where are you from , Ms . Baker ?
I'm from New Zealand .
What do you do for a living ?
I'm a teacher .
What are you doing , Steven ?
I'm going to Beijing tomorrow . I'm packing my luggage .
What will you bring along when traveling ?
I will take some clothes to change and cleaning items .
Have you packed the camera yet ?
Yes . I've already put it in my suitcase .
Pack some necessary medicine in your carry-on .
You ' re home late today , David . How was school ?
Not bad . There ' s a new English teacher .
Oh , what ' s she like ?
She is beautiful .
Is she old or young ?
She is quite young and her hair is blond .
Is she strict ?
Not really . Her eyes are blue .
Can she speak Chinese ?
Not much . She is very tall and slim .
I received an eviction notice from you , and I don ' t understand what it means .
Well , you are behind in your rent ; it ' s a 30 - day notice to vacate .
You can ' t make me move just for being late with my rent .
You have been late with your rent several times now . I am filing suit for back rent to protect myself .
Are you throwing me out ?
This notice is to let you know that you will be evicted by a sheriff if you don ' t make good on your rent .
If I catch up on my rent , can I stay ?
You can stay if you catch up and stay caught up . Otherwise , I will find another renter .
I will go get the money right now .
Do you have the same in different sizes ? The trousers are too long for me .
Let me see . Yes , here you are .
Will the trousers shrink when washed ?
No , they won't . They are shrink proof .
Hello . Overseas operator . May I help you ?
Yes . I'd like to make a collect call to Japan .
Your name , please ?
It's Helen Kent .
Who would you like to talk to ?
I'd like to talk to Mr . Edna Kent .
Is that Mr . Edna Kent ?
That's right .
What number are you calling from , please ?
From code 513 , 432-6748 .
And the number in Japan , please ?
Country code is 81 , area code 138 , and the number is 846-8972 .
Dentale Associates . I'm afraid there's nobody available to answer your call . Please leave your name and telephone number and we'll call you back . Please speak clearly after the beep .
Good afternoon , can I help you ?
Hello . I've been told to come in and see someone about my L / C . I just had a message to come in and see someone called Kristy .
I'm Kristy . Can I help ?
I received a letter asking me to come in and see you . I'm Mr Simons from Dalton's Electrics .
Oh , yes . Hello Mr Simons . I have some information about your L / C amendment . The negotiating bank has just informed us that the 3rd party does not wish to accept the amendment .
Oh dear ! Where should I go from here ?
Freeze ! Police ! Put your hands over your head !
What did I do ? I haven't done anything .
You're under arrest for concealing illegal drugs .
What do you mean ?
You are suspected of hiding illegal drugs . So we are taking you into custody .
I didn't do anything .
We've found some heroin at your house .
No , I didn't . I'm innocent . Those aren't mine . Whatever you found is someone else's stuff . You can't prove anything . I wasn't there when you went in , and you can't prove it's my stuff .
That may be , but you're still under arrest . And you'd better stop talking .
I don't need your help , jerk .
I'll always remember my college days .
Oh yeah ?
It was one of the best times in my life . It was tough , but I made it . I became a college graduate .
How did you feel when you graduated ?
It was a round day for me . My family attend the graduation ceremony . I was so nervous . I couldn't find my cap and gown , but all worked out in the end .
What did you do after graduation ?
I was planning to attend gradate school , but then I was offered a good job doing marketing , so I changed my mind .
Sounds like you're happy with your decision .
I sure am . So what about you ? How did you feel when you graduated ?
It was also a proud day for me , but I also felt like a kind of loss that day .
How could it be ?
While seeing others going to work or continue their study , I didn't know what I would do .
You didn't have an offer ?
I had one , but I didn't like the job very much . I wanted to attend graduate school , but I was afraid it would be too tough .
Yuck . The carrots taste awful and salty . Hi sis , how do you like them ?
I like them very much . They are delicious .
Well , you can have all my carrots .
Daniel , hold on for a minute . What are you trying to pull there ?
Nothing . Just that I don't care for these carrots . Hi , sis . , I saw you buy some chocolate cakes . I am done with the main course . It's about time for some dessert .
Oh , you want my chocolate cakes , so to speak !
No , no , I'm just thinking of some dessert . And I have had enough carrots .
Daniel , carrots contain much Vitamin C . It is good for you .
I know , but chocolate cake is even better .
Oh , stop it ! You know you need vegetables . You will end up fat if you don't watch your diet , now .
Mr . Wilson , here's a present for you .
Oh , you are so nice . What a lovely scarf .
I hope you will like it .
Hello , Peace Hotel .
Hello , I'm calling from Beijing . I'd like to reserve a double room with a bath from tonight on for five days , please .
A moment , please . I'll check our room availability for these days ... Yes , that's all right . What ' s your name please ?
Excuse me . You can't leave your car here .
Oh , but I Just want to pick up a package . It won't take long .
I'm afraid you'll have to find a parking meter .
Can I park here just for a second ?
What did the boss say to you ?
He asked me to beef up in the work .
Yeah . You look so unhappy recently . What ' s the matter .
Can you pick up some things from the store for me ?
Of course , what do you need ?
I need a few things , I'll give you the list .
Is there something else you need that you can think of ?
Everything I need is on the list .
Do you want me to make any other stops while I'm out ?
Since you asked , would you pick up my medicine from the pharmacy ?
Is it ready to be picked up ?
I believe so .
No problem . I'll do that for you .
I really appreciate you doing this for me .
Ok ! I ' m ready for my driving lesson ! Should I start the car ?
Hold on there , Fittipaldi , first let ' s go over things one more time . Now before you even think of starting the car , make sure your seat is at a comfortable position and you can grip the steering wheel firmly . Next check your rear view mirrors to make sure you can see properly .
We have been through this a million times ! Let ' s get going already ! I ' m ready !
Fine , start the car . now gently step on the clutch and shift to 1st gear . Good , now accelerate gently and let go of the clutch as you do it . There we go , good !
I ' m doing it ! I ' m driving ! This is awesome ! Let ' s turn some music on !
Keep your eyes on the road ! No music ! We are coming up to a red light , step on the brakes . What are you doing ? I said the brakes ! Look out for those people ! Get off the sidewalk !
Get out of my way ! This is just like playing video games !
It ' s the police ! Pull over !
What ' s wrong with you ? Why are you scratching so much ?
I feel itchy ! I can ' t stand it anymore ! I think I may be coming down with something . I feel lightheaded and weak .
Let me have a look . Whoa ! Get away from me !
What ' s wrong ?
I think you have chicken pox ! You are contagious ! Get away ! Don ' t breathe on me !
Maybe it ' s just a rash or an allergy ! We can ' t be sure until I see a doctor .
Well in the meantime you are a biohazard ! I didn ' t get it when I was a kid and I ' Ve heard that you can even die if you get it as an adult !
Maybe we all will be all things to all men .
How terrible !
But for the life , we'll be changed by this society .
I really don't want to go into the world , I feel afraid of it .
Don't be silly . We have reached the age to take the responsibility by ourselves .
Steven , I am ready for breakfast .
OK . But where is my favorite coffee ?
It's in that pan there . Your boy Dean broke the silex yesterday , so I have to boil it in the pan .
It tastes like crankcase oil , but delicious .
That's good . You can make breakfast yourself if you don't like it .
What is there besides coffee ?
I warmed a couple of snails , and your eggs are in the frying pan .
Oh , my God . It's nearly eight , I have no time to have breakfast now . My watch says seven fifty .
Don't worry . It's only ten to seven . You must have forgotten to set your watch back .
Yes , it was . The clock on the wall says eight to seven .
Yeah . Keep on eating your breakfast . You can catch the early bus .
Do you often go to watch sports games ?
I go occasionally when there's a game on near home , but usually I watch it on TV .
Can you recall the games ?
Mr . : Hello , Mary .
Hi .
Mr . : I'm Mr . Taylor , and I'm your counselor . I'm going to show you around the school .
OK .
Mr . : Right here is the cafeteria .
It's huge !
Mr . : But not big enough . And here is our computer room .
There must be about 50 computers in here .
Mr . : And over here is our gymnasium .
Do I have to take gym ?
Mary , this company is pretty good . I really want to have an interview .
Have you made an appointment with this company ?
Not yet . Do I have to ?
Yes , it's very important to make an appointment before the interview .
Why ?
If you go to the company without appointment , the interviewers may happen to be busy with other things , and have no time to give you an interview .
Yes , you are right .
If the interviewers are not in the company , you will go there for nothing .
Sure . Why didn't I think of that ?
So you should make an appointment in advance with the company for the interview .
Then how can I make the appointment ?
You could directly call the company and arrange the time and place for the interview .
Ok , I see .
Here ' s a letter for you .
Let me see it .
Who ' s the letter from ?
It ' s a letter from UCLA about my acceptance .
Read it !
UCLA accepted me !
Really ?
I ' m not joking . I got accepted !
I ' m so happy for you !
UCLA was my second choice , but I ' m happy knowing I ' Ve been accepted .
I am really proud of you .
Now I understand . But I don't smoke or drink . So what am I supposed to buy in here ?
You can buy some of these nice butterflies .
No , I'm sorry . I don't think it is nice to have butterflies mounted in boxes . It is kind of disgusting .
What ? You feel sorry for the butterflies ?
Yes . I think they should just let them fly free , and not try to sell them to foreigners . It is a kind of destruction of nature .
Well , I agree with you . I'd rather think that the butterflies are flying around in the mountains . I just wonder if they really catch so many that it affects the butterfly population .
Who knows ? Hey , I like these jade bears here .
How much are they ?
This one is 2300 dollars . Maybe I should buy it for my mother . What do you think ?
If you want . Didn't you buy her a small vase already ?
Yes , but she would like this a lot . She likes to collect little things like this .
Alright . Buy it then . I won't buy anything . Well , maybe I'll buy some Cognac .
Maybe I could buy some Cognac for my brother . He always drinks it .
Where is your dressing room ?
Right over there .
( Person A comes out of the dressing room ) How did you like the sweater ?
I loved it . I'll take it .
Great . I can ring you up over here . It comes to $ 87 . 04 .
Here you go ?
Do you have a credit card with us ?
No I don't .
If you open up a card , you can save 10 % on all your purchases today .
Not today . Thanks though .
No problem . We always have this offer , so when ever you decide to , just let us know .
Sure .
Is there anything else I can help you with ?
Yeah . I was looking at some of your pants , but they are all a bit too long . Do you have alteration services here ?
Yes . It cost $ 7 , and it takes one day .
Great . Thanks for your help .
Hello , John . How are you ?
I'm fine , thanks . And you ?
Very well , thanks . Nice to see you again . I haven't seen you for a long time . What have you been doing lately ?
Oh , nothing much really . And how is everything with you ?
Fine , thanks . I've been busy lately .
What have you been doing ?
I've been studying for my exams . My school exams will begin next month .
Really ? Good luck for them .
Thanks . And how are your parents ?
They're both very well , thanks .
Where are you going now ?
I'm going to do some shopping . Why don't you come with me ?
I can't . I have to meet someone .
It's been nice talking to you .
This small town has many serious problems .
What's the cause ?
The mayor and high officials practice cronyism and a large number of guys who are good at nothing occupy many important positions .
What about the working hours ?
Working conditions are very relaxed . You may work whatever hours you want , provided you get your job done properly .
I like flexible hours .
Would you mind changing the position or working place you've applied for ?
Great Britain Airline , anything I can do for you ?
Yes , are there any planes to Paris ?
Hold on please , I will check for you . Flight GB152 takes off every day at 13
Yes , please . And I'll need an economy class open return .
Would you like to introduce me to Mr . Johnson ?
Yes . I'd like to .
Are you sure that this is the place to wait for our school bus ?
Yeah . Look , other kids are coming this way .
But it doesn't look like a real bus stop .
That's because regular buses don't stop here .
How much is it going to cost ?
Nothing . It's free .
Is that yellow bus it ?
All the routine work really browns me off .
Oh , come on . You ' Ve just started .
Thank you for your interest in this job . You'll be hearing from us . Send the next applicant in on your way out , please .
Thank you very much for offering me this opportunity .
It has been pleasant talking with you .
I have enjoyed talking with you too . Thank you .
May I call you at your home about our final decision ?
Yes , please . My telephone number is 367 - 1314 . You can call me between four and six in the afternoon .
We'll get in touch with you by next Wednesday . Thank you for your interest in this job .
May I see that ivory horse ?
Of course .
It's genuine , I bet .
It's made of genuine ivory , besides , it's of exquisite workmanship . The price is marked 200 yuan .
There is something wrong with my credit card .
What's the problem ?
There is a charge on here that I never made .
What charge was made ?
It was a charge for a $ 350 purse that I never bought .
You didn't make this purchase ?
I think I would remember if I made a purchase that large .
Sorry . When was this purse purchased ?
It was purchased on the 12th of November at 3
We'll do an investigation and get to the bottom of this .
In the meantime , do I have to pay for this charge ?
When you smell them , they affect your nervous system .
I thought you were supposed to put them in some kind of burner with a candle ...
You can do that , too . Both methods have a healing effect .
So what's your illness ... shopping fever , sale-itis ?
Ha-ha ... I'm just fatigued . And tomorrow is a big day .
What's tomorrow ?
Do you mind if we call on you this evening ?
Of course not , we'd be happy if you could come . What time will you be able to come ?
How about seven o'clock ?
Where are you going ?
I'll accompany my wife to the hospital .
What's wrong with her .
She is expecting .
Congratulations to you .
Come on , fellows . Let ' s enjoy my wife's cooking !
Em , it's delicious !
Thank you ! My wife likes cooking very much .
No-no-no , sorry ! That's a handicapped parking space . Are you handicapped ?
No , but this is an emergency ! Please !
Sorry , but you'll have to park in a normal space .
OK , OK , fine ! Just open the gate !
Be patient , miss . It'll just be a second .
There will be another sandstorm here tomorrow .
It's the fourth one this year . Isn't it horrible .
Yes . We should plant more trees and grass to stop the sand from spreading .
It may take many years for the trees to grow . I hope people will stop cutting down trees .
But we need the wood .
I had a great time on the last date .
Me , too .
What will you up to this weekend ?
Nothing .
would you like to go to skating ? I was thinking of going out to the - - Saturday . It's great up there . Would you like to go with me ?
I'd love to , but I don't care for skating very much .
Ok , there is a bunch of going bowling on Sunday . Would you like to go ?
I like bowling , but I prefer to be along with you .
Would you like to dancing tonight ?
I don't feel like going out tonight , I am way too tired . I miss you , sweetheart .
I miss you too . Tell me where you like to do the next day .
How about the seaside ?
Anything you say , honey .
Are you busy on the 24th ?
24th ? I have time . But I can't wait that long , I'm dying to see you . Let's make another time .
The band is pretty good . How do you like the music ?
it's very nice . I haven't heard live music in a while . This is fun .
well , then , may I invite you for the next dance ?
of course . But I'm afraid I'm not much of a dancer ...
don't worry . I'm not much of a dancer myself .
you're dancing so well .
you dance beautifully too .
when did you learn to dance ?
in college . But I don't dance very often . What's your favourite dance ?
it's hard to say . It depends . But I love the waltz .
how about tango ?
oh , I like it . It's such a beautiful dance , but I can't do it well . What about you ?
Tango is my favorite . Anything but hip-hop or the foxtrot .
thank you for the dance .
my pleasure . Let's go and have a drink .
Mom , can I have more allowance ?
What for ?
I want to buy more books .
Oh , yeah ? Are you joking ?
Of course not ! I'm telling the truth .
Are you a visitor here ?
No . I immigrated here three years ago .
Have you been used to your new life ?
Hi , I'd like two tickets to Providence , please .
Sure , what time will you like to depart ?
What time does the next train leave ?
Actually , one just left ten minutes ago . The next one is at two forty-five , debates at five thirty-five .
Ok , could you give me two tickets for that ?
Steven , what's your idea of price ?
The best we can do is $ 120 per case .
I'm afraid that's impossible . You can't expect us to reduce it to that extent .
I think you are well informed about the prevailing market . Some Spanish firms are offering the same at much lower prices .
Price can't be separated from quality . A comparison of the quality of our products with that of rival goods will show you that ours is far superior .
It's true yours are of better quality . But your price is still on the high side even if we take quality into consideration . How about meeting each other half way ?
Well , I'll have to think about it and get back to you in about 30 minutes .
Would you excuse me ?
For what ?
I ' Ve got a business call that I really need to take .
So Janet , do you do any sports ?
Well , I go to the gym a lot . I am a member of a gym nearby .
Yeah , how often do you go ?
About three times a week if I can .
Not bad ! Do you do any other sports ?
Bill , I must tell you the truth . You failed the English exam again .
Ah ? Really ? That stinks !
Haha . April Fool's ! Did you forget what day it is today ?
Wow , you were pulling my leg all along . I was really fooled .
Hi , this is Tom Port . May I speak to Mr . Smith ?
Mr . Smith is not in his office . I am afraid he will not be back before 3 pm . Would you care to speak to Mr . Brown who takes all the calls in his absence ?
No . Thanks . Can I leave a message for Mr . Smith ?
Stupid girl , making me spend so much money , now I have to get it from the ATM ...
Hello , welcome to Universal Bank . Please insert your card into the slot .
I know where to put my card ! Stupid machine , talking to me like I ' m an idiot ...
Please input your 6 digit PIN code followed by the pound key . Thank you . Please select an option . Thank you . You have selected withdrawal .
Yeah , yeah , I know what I selected . Just give me my money !
Please type the amount you would like to withdraw . Thank you , you want to transfer 10000 USD to the World Wildlife Foundation . If this is correct please press 1 .
No , no ! Stupid machine , what are you doing ! No !
are you working overtime again ? Over the last two weeks , you have worked overtime every day without a break ! Your company is draining the life out of you !
I know , but I don't have a choice , my boss has complete control over our work schedules . I haven't made it out of the office before 9 PM a single day this week .
Well , I hope they're paying you the big bucks for all this work ...
No , not exactly , I'm working for minimum wage . And they don't give extra pay for overtime . Overtime is our own time .
What ? ! Isn't there a law against that , I think there is some legislation that requires employers to give their employees a fair rate of wages . You should know your rights ! If you are putting in so many hours , they should give you some kind of compensation .
They do give bonuses at the end of the year for the employees with highest productivity numbers , but frankly , it's not much of an incentive . They give us a bonus of ten dollars .
That's just wrong ! why don't you just quit ?
I would , but I'm afraid I would't be able to find another job . I don't have very many job marketable skills , there aren't so many jobs that I'm qualified for .
What position have you held before ?
I have been a salesman .
Would you tell me the general description of your present job ?
I am in charge of the trading department .
What made you decide to change your job ?
I ' m working in a small company where further promotion is impossible .
Why do you leave your present company ?
I never easily give up something that is valuable . Before I decided to quit that position , I had made a thorough analysis of things like what I would gain and what I would lose here in your company . You know , Shanghai is always a fascinating place to me , full of challenges as well as hopes . In addition to this , I have the specialized knowledge and the necessary experience of making a good . Of course , opportunities to work abroad and a higher salary are also important to me . So I believe it ' s worthwhile to come here to work .
Why did you pick this organization ?
I'm very much interested in the position .
What made you decide to join our company ?
What is this for ?
It's the key for the safety deposit box .
Okay , thanks .
Excuse me . We ordered too much . May we take the food home ?
Yes , surely .
Do I have to pay extra charge for that ?
No , you don't . It is free of charge .
Well , then , will you put this and that into doggie bags ?
Certainly , would you wait for a few minutes ?
Thanks . Would you give me another favor ?
Yes , what is it ?
Some more Chinese tea for us , please .
What are we going to do ? I can't get the car out of this ditch . I'm stuck !
I'm worried , Tom . I haven't seen any other cars for almost an hour .
I know . This is terrible . What can we do ? This snow doesn't stop falling !
I told you we should have stayed in town today . The weather report said 100 percent chance of snow . Why did you want to come up here ?
I wanted to show you the cabin . We only had another half-hour to go .
Well , now we're stuck . What can we do ?
I don't know .
I've heard that when this happens , it's important to save energy .
What do you mean ?
We're stranded here , Tom . We may be here a long time . We need to conserve the gas in the car . The car's energy is what will keep us warm .
I have plenty of gas .
Yes , but the gas and the battery both have to stay working . We can't just let the car run and run . If we do , it will die soon . Then we'll freeze .
So what can we do ?
Turn the lights off . Then , run the car and the heater only about fifteen minutes every hour . That will conserve the heat as long as possible .
Alright . That's a good idea .
I wish we hadn't come up here . Now we'll probably be here for days .
Days ?
Yes , it happens . That is what happens in big snowstorms . People get stranded for days .
Oh , my God ! It's good we have food .
Probably we'll survive . But turn the car off for about forty-five minutes . Then we'll turn it on again .
Day , I'm home .
Do you have any homework today ?
I'll do it later .
Go and do it now .
Excuse me , we have book table 6 . Would you please come and tidy the table ?
OK , sir . We will be there right now ... sir , your table is ready .
Thank you . Could we have the menu , please ?
Would you like to rent the house ?
You bet , as long as I can collect enough money .
I can lend some to you .
Ouch , it ' s unbearable .
Please keep calm . I know the pain isn ' t what flesh and blood can stand . But be brave .
So John , have you ever been to China before ?
No , I haven ' t . This is the first time I have been to China .
Have you travelled to many other countries ?
To be honest , I have never been to an Asian country before but I have visited many countries in Europe .
What about America ? Have you ever been to the United States ?
Tell me about how you work here .
Good morning , doctor . I've been suffering very much from a toothache lately .
Well , let me have a look . Will you sit down in this chair and open your mouth wide ?
I think one of the back ones at the top is giving me the most trouble .
Yes . This big one is badly decayed . I'm afraid it must be taken out .
Oh , I hate having teeth pulled out . Will it hurt ?
No need to worry . You won't feel anything at all . I'll give you an injection to stop the pain . Just wash your mouth out with this water , will you ?
Will it take long ?
No , it'll be over soon . Nurse , get some X-rays of our patient's molars . Then we'll start . Open your mouth wide . Don't be so nervous . Now open wider ... now stay , that's over ...
Is it out ?
Not yet , but it soon will be . Now open again please ... It's out ! Look !
Can I help you ?
Yes . When is the next train to New York City ?
Let me see ... the train to New York City ... here it is ... daily except Sunday at ten thirty , twelve twenty and fifteen ten .
Aren't there any trains before ten thirty ?
Sorry , not before ten thirty .
Then one to New York at ten thirty .
One way or round trip ?
One way .
A soft seat or hard one ?
How much is a soft ?
15 dollars . And for a hard one , only 6 dollars .
Then one hard seat , please .
Excuse me , you look lost . Can I help you ?
Oh , Thank you . I'm looking for the train station .
Right . Let me see . You go straight down here and turn right .
Right ? OK , got it .
Then take the next left then the next right . Are you with me ?
It's time to go to bed .
But mum , we're watching this movie .
I don't care , it's school in the morning .
Is Jack still staying idle everyday ?
No , he has mended his way . After his father died , he set his hand to the job of putting his business affairs in order .
Really ? He is so competent now .
Hello , this is Wal-mart . Can I help you ?
Hello . What time do you close , please ?
We close at 10:00 every day . And we open at 9:00 in the morning .
Oh . Ok . And are you open on the weekends ?
Same hours as on the weekdays .
Wow . You guys never take a break ! I want to come in and have a look at your sale . Your sale is still on , isn't it ?
Yes , it runs till the end of the month . But things are clearing out fast .
Ok , I'll come down tonight . Thanks .
I'm going over to the gym . I want to do some running .
Why don't you run outside ?
Are you kidding ? Do you know how cold it is today ?
Yeah , I suppose . I guess it isn't healthy to run in this weather .
No , it's not . Not at all . I'd probably freeze my lungs .
Wait for me a minute . I'll go over to the gym too .
You ?
Yes , why not ? Just let me get my gym clothes together .
I didn't know you could exercise .
What do you mean by that ? Everyone can exercise !
Yeah , I know . But you ? I always thought you were only good at lifting beer bottles to your mouth .
No , not at all . I was on the swimming team in high school . And I'd like to do some weight training . They have decent equipment at that gym .
You're going to lift weights ? Hah !
Are you laughing at me ?
I'm sorry . I just can't imagine you lifting weights .
Maybe not . But I want to start . I need to get in shape . I feel these past couple months that my energy is low .
It's true . If a person doesn't exercise , they get sluggish . That ' s why I keep running . Even in the winter .
So I need to do something too .
But lifting weights isn't the best thing . You should do some kind of aerobic exercise .
I know . But I want to start today with a little weight lifting . Then I'm going to buy a new swimming suit and goggles , and every other day I'm going to go swim laps in the pool . How does that sound ?
It sounds like a good plan to me . I'm still ... I mean ...
What ?
Hello .
Hello . Is there anything I can do for you ?
Yes , please . I'd like to open a savings account . Would you please give me some advice ?
Certainly , I'll be very happy to help you . Usually we offer current or fixed accounts for individuals .
What's the difference between the two ?
If you open a fixed account , the interest rate is higher .
Then how about the current account ?
You may withdraw the money at any time . You just need to present your deposit book .
Thank you for your help . I think I'll open a current account .
OK . Do you have your ID card on you ?
Yes .
Good . Everything is done . Here is your deposit book and ID card .
Thank you very much .
May I help you ?
Yes , I would like to return these slacks .
Alright . Do you have your receipt ?
Yes . Here it is . I bought them last week .
And why are you returning them ?
I bought them to go with a blouse of mine . But they don't really match .
I see . Oh , wait . Ma'am , I'm sorry . These slacks were on sale .
Yes , they were thirty percent off .
I'm sorry , but we don't allow returns on sale items .
I know many stores have that policy . But I have returned sale items here before .
I'm sorry , but we usually don't do it . It is our policy .
I just bought these slacks a week ago . And I am a regular customer here . Can you make an exception this time ?
Well . Let me talk to the manager for a moment . Madam , the manager says can do it this time .
Good . I'm a regular customer here . I am glad you can make an exception for me .
Please show me your receipt again .
Here it is .
I will have to give you store credit , Madam . If you can find something else you like in the store , you can use the credit .
Store credit is okay with me . I'm sure I will find something I like . I shop here a lot .
I hear you're going to Tainan to visit your uncle .
That's correct .
Jimmy , I ' d like to wear this robe for tonight cocktail party . What do you think of it ?
Don ' t dress like that . You ' ll make fool yourself . You look stupid in that robe .
What ? But it is my favorite piece of clothing .
Maybe it is . But it ' s out of fashion .
What am I going to do ?
How do you like this waltz ?
It's very nice . I like it very much .
Well , then , may I invite you for the first dance ?
My pleasure . But I'm afraid I'm not much of a dancer , and I suppose you dance often .
Me ? Oh , no . In fact , I only took up dancing quite recently .
Oh , really ? But you're doing the waltz wonderfully well .
I'm glad you say so . You dance beautifully too . It's lucky that I got you as a partner .
Thank you for your compliments . It's just you are a good leader . Do you like the foxtrot and tango ?
Yes . And what dances do you like best ?
Disco is my favorite . I like it better than any other dances because it can release one's hidden feelings , and is a healthy exercise . But I don't do the rock and roll nor break-dancing .
Oh , well , the music has stopped . Thank you for the dance .
Woo hoo ! This just might be the start of the rest of my life !
What happened ?
I ' m in the market for a job ! I went on a website with hundreds of job listings in the area and browsed through them until I got the names of a few employers I would like to work for . I have the resume I wrote for English class last month and a cover letter will be a piece of cake to write . I ' Ve even done my research and found the names of the managers so I can address the letters personally . And you know I can be charming in interviews . Goodbye my penniless days ! Hello salary and a career !
Ben , we ' re fifteen . What kind of job are you looking for ?
Oh , just for a position as a gas station attendant . You know , starting at a simple lowly job , just like all the greats before they made it big in the world .
Uh-huh .
Jack and Mary broke up .
it ' s so sad . They had been together for only two months . Do you know what the matter was ?
Mary said Jack was cheating on her . Jack was seeing a girl from his hometown . One day , Mary saw them holding hands and ended the relationship immediately .
really ? I ' m very surprised . He doesn ' t look like a guy who ' d ever do that sort of thing , right ?
no , he doesn ' t . Anyway , she found out that he had been two-timing her for a long time .
maybe it is for the best . They are not suitable for each other because they have nothing in common and are completely different people .
how so ?
he is an extrovert while she is an introvert . He likes parties while she hates them .
poor Mary ! She really liked him .
anyway , she was right to end things and she deserves better .
do you think they ' ll get back together ?
no , I don ' t think so . I know Mary . Once she makes a decision , she won ' t change her mind .
I hope she ' ll recover soon .
I'm hungry , let's order up something to eat .
Ok , maybe we can order a soup and a salad from the restaurant down the street .
I was thinking of getting a hamburger , fries and a chocolate sundae .
You eat too much junk food . That sort of stuff clogs up your arteries and is very high in cholesterol .
Well I never seem to gain weight so I don't mind .
It's not only about getting fat or not , it's about being healthy . You could really have some health problems later on .
How about pizza or maybe some fried chicken ! Better yet , let's order some hot dogs !
Are you ready to order now , sir ?
Yes , I'll have a steak , please .
How would you like the steak , rare , medium , or well-done ?
Rare , please .
Would you like something to drink ?
Hi ! How are you going ?
Fine , thank you . How are you doing this morning ?
Not bad . How about you ? Haven't seen you for a long time .
Yes . I've been to New York . I got back only yesterday .
Did you enjoy yourself ?
Very much . New York is such a nice place . Shall I show you some photographs ?
Thanks , I like looking at photographs . How nice ! Oh , I'm afraid I must be going now . I've got an appointment . Have a good day .
You too . I hope to see you soon . Goodbye .
I couldn't look at you , and say you aren't beautiful !
You are pretending !
No , Miss Anna , you must let me say how lovely you are ! What's wrong with that ?
It's wrong because---it isn't true .
You know that everybody notices how beautiful you are , don't you ?
Well , no-that is , I've heard Linda say they do , but ... Thank you . But please don't speak to me again .
Mary , could you please come in for a short while ?
No problem .
Mary , I'd like you to meet Richard , Our new executive in the marketing .
Nice to meet you , Austin .
Welcome to our department . I hope you'll like it here .
By the way , Richard will assist me in the planning work . I hope you can work well together .
Sure , if you've got any problem you can ask me .
Thank you . It ' s very kind of you .
Richard , Mary is a very helpful and experienced secretary indeed , and I'm sure you will find out .
I'd like to invite you for dinner tonight . Do you think you'll have time ?
Thank you for your invitation . I'm free tonight .
Which kind of food do you like to eat , Chinese food , western food or seafood ?
I prefer seafood .
OK . I will pick you up at your hotel at 5:30 p . m .
That's fine . I'll be waiting for you .
See you later .
Will you bring our bill , please ?
Yes , certainly . I'll be back in a minute . Here you are .
Thanks . Let me see . I think there's a mistake on the bill here . Would you mind checking , please ?
Of course not . Let me check . Oh , you seem to be correct .
How about taxes service charge ?
Only ten percent of taxes included in the bill .
Then 100 US dollars covers everything , doesn't it ?
Joanne , let ' s not make this divorce any more acrimonious than it already is , okay ? Let ' s just get down to business and start dividing this stuff up fairly , so we can go our separate ways , alright ?
Fine with me . I just want to get this over with . It ' s important we make a clean break . I should have signed a pre-nup .
What was that ?
Nothing ! Anyway , you ' re right , there ' s no reason this has to be nasty . My lawyer tells me you ' Ve accepted our alimony proposal and the division of property , as well as the custody agreement - I keep the cat and you get the dog . So that ' s done ... finally .
Let ' s not go there , Joanne ! Ok , so let ' s start with the record collection , I ' ll take the albums I contributed and you can have your cheesy disco albums back .
Fine , but I ' m keeping the antique gramophone as my grandfather gave it to me .
I believe that was a wedding present to both of us , Joanne . And you hardly ever use it !
He ' s my grandfather , and he never really liked you anyway !
Whatever ! Alright , I ' ll concede the silly gramophone , if you ' ll agree that I get the silver tea set .
How typical , when are you ever going to use a silver tea set ? Fine ! I don ' t want to drag this out any longer than necessary . What ' s next ? What about these old photographs ?
Which ones ? Let me have a look . Wow , look at that ! That brings back memories ... That ?
Our trip to Italy ! I remember that day . We were going to visit the Trev fountain , and we got caught in the rain ...
... and you looked so adorable with your hair all wet . I had to take a picture of you standing there in that little alley , smiling and laughing in the rain ...
Oh , we really did have fun back then , didn ' t we ?
Oh , Joanne , are we making a big mistake ? I know our relationship has been on the rocks for sometime but are you sure we can ' t reconcile and try again ? I still love you .
Oh Jeff ! I love you too ! I ' m so glad we didn ' t have to decide who keeps the motorcycle .
I heard Tom was caught stealing something again in the supermarket .
Really ? He deserves it ! They should teach him a good lesson .
But the word is his brother would go bail for him . Last time it ' s his father who went bail for him .
Susan , good evening . Why are you so dressed up ?
I am on my way out to a New Year ' s banquet . How do I look ? Is my make-up OK ?
You look great . Your make-up is perfect .
Do you think I should wear a different dress ?
No , the one you have on looks fabulous , especially with your hair like that .
Thanks for saying . Do you have any ideas which necklace I should wear ?
With that dress I'd say your white diamond necklace would look perfect .
Thanks for helping out . Now that I ' m ready , what are you doing tonight ?
Not much , just a house party with some friends .
Sounds fun . Anyone I know ?
Yeah , most of the people are from our office .
Sounds Like I'm missing out on a good time . Oh , well , there is always next year .
Where do you usually do your shopping , Mrs . Lane ?
I usually go to the supermarket , near the station .
How do you find the prices there ?
I think they are quite reasonable , and the vegetables are very fresh .
I see you have bought some coffee . Would you mind telling me how much you paid for it ?
We thought you might like to participate in our rehearsal .
I ' m afraid I ' m already booked up for next Sunday . But thank you just the same .
Which do you like better , orange or lemon ?
I like orange better .
Why ?
I heard that you're going on your first date Friday night .
Are you angry , Lisa ?
Angry ? Why would I be ?
Please don't tell my mom .
Come on . Dating is a part of young people's social life . Besides , you're sixteen already .
I'm glad that you see it that way .
Do you want to borrow my coat ? I have a black coat that would look smashing on you .
Excuse me ! How can I get to the post office , please ?
Well , turn left at the first corner after the crossroad . It's near the corner . You can't miss it .
Thank you very much .
Sir , may I please see your license and registration ? Do you know how fast you were going ?
No , I ' m not sure . I think about 65 mph , right ?
You ' re not sure ? You were going at 90 miles per hour ! That ' s 25 mph over the legal speed limit ! Have you been drinking ?
No , Officer , not at all .
Then how can you explain your behavior ?
Well , I guess I just wasn ' t paying attention to the speedometer .
Not paying attention to the speedometer ? Why not ?
Um , because I was busy talking to my friend .
On a cell phone ?
Yes , I was using a cell phone . I just bought it , so I decided to give my friend a phone call to tell him about it . While I did that I also turned on the radio and was listening to one of my favorite songs , and eating some food I had bought at a fast food restaurant , and , um ... guess I had too many distractions .
Hi , I'm Benjamin . Nice to meet you here . You look great .
Thank you . Nice to meet you too . I'm John . Is this your first time to take a long-distance trip on plane ?
No , this is the second time . But I also feel bad because of the lower pressure and the jet lag .
Oh , I am sorry to hear that . Take it easy . It will be OK soon . You see , I take this long-hour plane frequently , but the jet lag still makes me uneasy .
Oh , that's too bad . Do you get a good knowledge of China ?
Yes , whenever I think about China , I'd see the Tian'an Men Square . China is a very beautiful country . And I've seen many landmarks in China but I like the Great Wall most .
All of the Chinese are proud of the Great Wall . And it was built before the In dynasty near Shan Haiguan-the First Pass in the World .
Was it built before the In dynasty ? I thought it was in the Ming dynasty .
No , before the In dynasty .
Oh , yeah . Thought I am an American , I know quite a lot about China and I like Chinese tea very well .
Both the green tea and the black tea are good for our health . And I usually refresh myself with a cup of tea .
Yeah , many of my friends like Chinese tea and whenever I go back to China , I'll take some Dragon-well green tea for them .
Do you like the Chinese traditional silk ?
I heard about it , but I don't have any clothes made from silk .
Go and pick some stuff up . The price can always surprise foreign friends .
Is that you , Dave ? Oh , my gosh ! The backstabber who left us to work for the evil WebTracker !
Yeah , yeah , yeah . Hi , Mary . How are you ?
I'm filthy rich ! Haven't you heard about the MicroPower deal ?
Yeah , I guess I did . They're going to buy invoking ?
That's right . For seventy-five million . So how are you ?
Good morning miss . Wang
Good morning Mr . Li
It ' s a beautiful morning isn ' t it ?
Oh . It ' s a nice day indeed
I hope it won ' t be too hot , I can ' t stand the heat
Anna , that outfit looks wonderful on you ! The color goes with your trousers perfectly .
Thanks , Carla . That's quite a compliment coming from you . You always dress so tastefully .
Well , that dress certainly shows your good taste . It must have cost a lot .
No , not much . I got it on sale at the mall - 60 % off .
Really ? You're an amazing bargain hunter ! Next time there's a sale , promise you'll let me tag along with you .
Why did you stay home today ?
I have to go home now , Jenny . Thanks for inviting me to your party .
I'm glad you came . I hope you enjoyed it .
Are you going home now ?
No , I'm not .
What are you going to do ? Are you going to work late ?
No , I'm not . I'm going to look for an apartment .
An apartment ? Why ?
I'm going to try to find a place near the office .
Where are you living now ?
Out in the suburbs . It ' s a long trip to work every day .
How are you going to find an apartment ?
I'm going to buy a newspaper and check the classified ads .
Apartments in the city are expensive .
Hello , welcome to the International Business Counter , Sir . What can we do for you today ?
Hi . I need some help with these documents under L / C .
Of course . Is there a problem with them ?
Yes . My Manager sent me in , there's a problem with the shipping time . It's been delayed quite significantly and my manager is unwilling to accept it .
You will need to return the documents . That's no problem ; we can deal with that for you now .
I need a haircut .
Do you have an appointment ?
No , I don't . You look pretty busy today . Do you have an opening for me ?
Yes , we do . I can cut your hair right now if you like . Do you need a shampoo too , or just a haircut ?
Just a haircut . I washed my hair this morning .
Alright . I will have an assistant wet your hair . Then I can cut it . Please step over there . How would you like your hair cut today ?
Well , I last had a haircut eight weeks ago . So my hair is pretty long . But I want the same style .
I recommend you leave it a little long on top . But we should take in the back and sides a bit more . That's more fashionable now .
Alright . You are the expert . I'm happy to have your recommendation .
So I will cut the sides just above the ear . Is that good ?
Fine .
And do you usually part your hair along here ?
Yes .
Alright , I know just what to do . Your hair seems quite dry , you know . And I see some split ends .
Yes , I know my hair is quite thin . It runs in my family . Everybody has very thin hair .
The problem is the split ends . They make your hair look even more frizzy .
I don't know what to do about it .
Well , there are two things you can do . First , don't blow-dry your hair for so long after you shower . Let it dry naturally . That is easier on the hair , so you won't get split ends . Second , buy a g
Do you sell conditioner here ?
Of course . I have one I can suggest .
Great . I would be happy to try it . I know my hair doesn't look good now . It's too weak .
Excuse me , I ' d like to buy a guitar . Could you recommend one ?
Sure . Do you want an acoustic one or an electric one ?
An acoustic one .
Are you looking to get a steel-string or a classical ?
What ' s the difference ?
Well , a classical guitar has nylon strings and its neck is bigger than a steel-string guitar ' s . It ' s best suited for finger picking . A steel-string is best for playing chords .
I ' m mainly interested in learning to play rhythm guitar .
In that case , I ' d suggest a steel-string guitar . The best one we have is the Ovation .
This one ' s a little too expensive for me . I ' d prefer something cheaper for now . When I ' Ve learned to play , I might get a better one .
In that case , how about this one ? It ' s inexpensive but it ' s still well made and easy to play .
Hmm . All right , I ' ll take it , and this book on how to play the guitar as well .
You should also get a couple of guitar picks .
Oh , right . Thanks for your help .
Lovely day , isn't it ?
Oh , yes . Beautiful .
You are not English , are you ?
Hello . floor service , can I help you ?
Hello , this is Smith from 1308 , can you add something to my room ?
No problem , what would you need , Mr . Smith ?
2 towels and l Turkish towel , please ?
OK , I will send them to you soon .
Thank you .
Anything else , Mr . Smith ?
Can we have two tickets for seven thirty ?
Yes , and would you like to have seats in the front or at the back ?
In the front , please .
That's 35 yuan each .
Thank you . And what's on tomorrow ?
Tarzan .
Can we get tickets now ?
I ' m so hungry . Let me have a look at the menu .
Didn't Joe feel it a shame to live on his parents since he has graduated from college ?
He has no sense .
If I were him , I wouldn't brazen it out by asking my parents for money .
Mom , I don't feel well .
Are you sick ?
I feel dizzy .
Let me take your temperature .
Mom , I don't want to go to see a doctor .
What sort of accommodation can you supply for me ?
My computer isn ' t running at the same speed it used to be , it is testing my patience everyday . Can you tell me how to make it run faster ?
If you want to speed up your system , you ' Ve got to clean it up first .
How ?
You need to free your disk space . The simplest way is to use a Disk-Cleanup tool to remove temporary files and in store programs that you no longer use . Things should be fine next time you start . You also need to control what starts up . There is a program calls Start-up Delayer , It can help to set after how much time programs should be loaded after Windows boosts . For example , you can choose to set your Fox Mail program to load 30 seconds after Windows starts up .
Elegance Hotel , is there anything I can do for you ?
Hello , I would like to make a reservation for four nights next week , from Tuesday to Friday .
All right , single or double room ?
Single room with a bath room , please . I would like a room with a view of the whole city .
All right . We have a single room available right now .
What's the rate , please ?
578 yuan a night , plus VAT , including air-conditioner and TV .
Does that include breakfast ? Can I make calls on outside line ?
Yes , it includes English breakfast . For the phone , I am afraid you can not .
OK , that's fine . Could you hold it for me ?
The road ahead is blocked . There might have been an accident .
Are there many accidents in the city every day ?
Not really , but they are on the rise .
Hello . Beijing Restaurant . How can I help you ?
Hi . I want to place an order , please .
For pick - up or delivery ?
Pick - up .
What would you like to order ?
I have a menu from your restaurant . I ' ll order using the number of each meal from your menu .
That ' s fine .
I ' d like to order number 17 , no . 23 and no . 24 .
What size ?
Medium , please .
When will you come to pick up your order ?
I ' ll be there in about an hour .
John got a heart attack last night .
Oh really ? Is he all right ?
Not so good , though his nephew took him to hospital in time .
This is a very spacious apartment . It's forty pings , including the parking space . That's about one thousand four hundred square feet .
Wow . It's just the two of us . I don't know if we need that much room .
You never know when two might turn into three .
I guess you're right . And we'd like to have company anyway .
Exactly , which is why a three-bedroom is better . And look , there are two bathrooms .
Good evening , sir . Welcome to our restaurant .
Thank you .
Do you have a reservation ?
Yes , I do .
May I have your name , please ?
Yes , it's Mr . Brown .
Mr . Brown . We were expecting you . This way , please . Will this table be fine ?
Oh , this is just fine .
Please take a seat .
Thank you .
You look hot and tired . Jack , have you been exercising ?
Yes . We just had a basketball match with Class Two .
Who won ?
They did .
What was the score ?
Oh , George , what a beautiful day it is today ! The sun is hot and there are just a few clouds scattered here and there ! What a perfect day to be at the beach ! The kids are going to have so much fun ! A
It does seem like the perfect day ! I ' m glad we chose to get out of the city and enjoy the nice weather ! This looks like the perfect spot ! Ok kids , put on your sunscreen while your mom and I set up ca
There we go . Can you help me with the umbrella ? Perfect .
Ok kids , here ' sa beach ball and a Frisbee , a pail and a shovel . I want to see an impressive sandcastle by the time we leave . Don ' t stray too far . Wait ! Leave your sandals here or put on your wet shoes
And stay in the shallow area . I don ' t want to see you go any farther than that sandbar ! It ' s too deep out there and we didn ' t bring your floatier .
You ' re back already ? The water was too cold , huh ? I ' ll tell you a secret . Do you see that small pool of water over there ? It ' ll be warmer in there . Go see if you can find some seashells or catch some
What is that ? A jellyfish ? Jeremy , put that down right now ! It could sting you !
Welcome to Flash Foot , sir . How can I help you ?
I'd like extra prints made of these photos .
Do you have your negatives ?
Yes . Here they are . I've marked how many prints I want on each shot .
What size do you want the prints ?
Four by six , except this one . I want a ten by thirteen print of this one .
Yeah , but you guys don't stay with the same classmates all day , right ?
Right . The people in your math class might not be the people you have science with .
So , you sent out invitations to your whole graduating class ?
Yep . And the date is set for homecoming night .
I thought homecoming was a high school dance .
Excuse me , Mr . White ? I just need you to sign these before I leave .
Sure , Sherry . Sorry to have kept you waiting . If you hadn ' t told me , I probably would have just forgotten all about them .
That ' s my job , sir . Just one more signature here , please .
That girl looks very attractive , doesn ' t she ?
Do you think so ? I don ' t like girls who look like that . I like girls who are not too slim . If you like her , go and talk to her .
I ' d like to , but there ' s her boyfriend . He ' s very broad-shouldered .
He ' s huge ! He must go to the gym to have a well-built body like that .
Do you prefer tall girls or short ones ?
I don ' t mind , but I like girls with long hair .
We have different tastes . I like girls with short hair . I like tall girls-probably because I ' m so tall myself .
Have you ever dated a girl taller than you ?
No , never . I don ' t think I ' Ve ever met a girl taller than me ! Have you gained weight recently ?
Yes , I have . Perhaps I should go to the gym , like that girl ' s boyfriend .
How do you like your work ?
The work is rather hard , but it's interesting .
What do you do ?
I work in a publishing house . How about you ?
Mine isn't hard , but it's not interesting .
What do you do then ?
What do you think are the most important things to do when running a business ?
Well , there are several things . Of course , you must do everything you can to keep costs down and revenues high .
So , do you think workers should be paid as little as possible ?
No . if you do that , the workers won ' t like their jobs . They will be less efficient and you will get a high staff turnover . Those things will increase you costs .
How can a business maximise revenues ?
You need to invest in some good advertising . You have to know where your potential customers are and target them . It ' s no good trying to sell computer games to older people . The market is too small .
What else do you suggest ?
I need to get some business cards printed up .
Do you know how many you need ?
I think I can get by with 2,000 .
We can get started as soon as you fill out this form .
I hope you can make the new cards just like my old cards .
You won't be able to tell the difference with a magnifying glass .
... Okay , I'm through . Here's the form and my old card .
Very good . You can pick up your order in one week .
Now that I think of it , three days is better than seven .
Can you help me pick out a gift for my niece ?
Most normal little girls go wild over Barbie dolls .
That sounds good . Let me see one .
Here's the latest model -- Digital Barbie .
Oh , she's nice . How much is she ?
Why , she's only $ 29 . 95 .
Well , that's reasonable . I'll take it .
Excellent . Would you like anything else ?
No , thank you .
The total will be $ 32 . 42 . Will that be cash ?
Oh , cash will be fine .
Welcome , young man . No offence , but I haven't seen you here before .
Of course , this is my first time here . My Mom has a membership here . Here is the card .
Okay then . You are the younger customer here ever .
It's not so wise that you do not explore the children's market .
It's the marketing's fault , I suppose . What do you want to do ?
Well , I want to become just like Bruce Lee . What should I do ?
That's a long way to go , I'm afraid . First of all , you gotta grow up .
I am still young . And I'm growing every minute .
Sure . Then what about trying the treadmill or the skipping rope .
I love running . Anything else ?
Please change your clothes first !
I'm perfect with my clothes . And I do not have anything else with me .
Sorry , but no jeans here .
You can take this car into consideration . It works well and its price is reasonable .
Oh , my god . How can you stand living in such a messy dorm ?
Our place is spotlessly clean , compared with others .
Have you even tried to clean it once since you moved in at the beginning of the semester ?
In fact , I just swept the floor three days ago .
I think we need to restart the dormitory sanitation inspection system .
Can you tell Bob from Tom ?
How can I ? They're as alike as two peas in a pod .
Don't you notice that Bob has a mole on his face , but Tom does not .
It is difficult for old people to do away with old ideas .
So the reform cannot be carried out well .
Government is making efforts to change situation .
What kind of work do you want to do when you finish university ?
I want to work in the banking industry . I ' Ve always been interesting in working for an international invest bank . I ' d like to help people invest their money .
That ' s a job that pays well . If you ' re lucky , you might have opportunities to travel as well . Have you applied to any banks yet ? Our course will end soon .
Yes . I ' Ve sent letters to several banks . A few have invited me for interviews after we take our examinations .
Well done ! I haven ' t sent off any job applications yet .
Which field would you like to work in ? have you decide yet ?
I ' d like to work in marketing . I think I could have a good career in that field .
Perhaps you should apply to banks as well . They need people to market their service . As you said , the banking industry pays well .
It's a lovely day out today , isn't it ?
It's beautiful . Enjoy it while it lasts . It's supposed to get cold tomorrow .
What's the weather forecast for tomorrow ?
It's supposed to snow early tomorrow morning and then tomorrow afternoon there's a chance of freezing rain .
That doesn't sound pretty .
Do you have any plans for tomorrow ?
Well , I was going to drive to Birmingham to see some friends .
You might want to change your plans . With the cold and wet weather that we're supposed to have tomorrow , the roads are going to be rather slippery .
I suppose I should . I don't like driving in dangerous weather conditions . Do you have any plans for tomorrow ?
I just have to go to class tomorrow afternoon .
If you're lucky , it'll get cancelled and you can have a snow day !
If that happens , then I'll invite you over and we can drink hot cocoa and watch movies .
That sounds like fun .
Hey , look outside ! It's started to drizzle !
How are you getting along with your paper ?
I haven't finished it . It is very difficult .
You should hand it in before next Sunday .
Oh , I know . I will try my best .
How much is the voucher worth ?
It is worth 100 yuan and your bill comes to 230 yuan . The difference is 130 , please .
Here it is .
Thank you , sir . Could you sign the voucher here , please ?
OK . Here you are .
They promised us a sea view .
Well , you can just see the sea . Between the factory chimneys .
Isn't it awful ? I can't bear to look at it . I don't think I can stand this place for two weeks .
I've just had an argument with Bob .
Really , who started the argument ?
He did and it's his entire fault .
We're going out to dinner and then to the movies .
Hold on ! I can't afford to pay for both .
Don't worry . I've got money . It's my treat .
I'm happy to see you again .
Me too .
We should do this more often .
What games do you like ?
I like word games .
How about a game of bridge ?
I don't like it at all .
What about guessing games ?
I'm not one for the games .
Let's play other game .
What about playing go ?
Did you get the car you wanted ?
No . Someone had stolen a march on me and bought it .
What about the car over there ?
Hey , there's Leo . I wonder why he's walking arm in arm with that young woman .
It's as plain as the nose on your face . They're dating each other .
You're pulling my leg ! She must be thirty years younger than Leo . Talk about robbing the cradle !
Well , you can bet this relationship's going to be a flash in the pan .
It must have been love at first sight because I know he didn't have a girlfriend last week .
How about this floor lamp ?
Fine , just get it ! We have been shopping for furniture for five hours ! I ' m so tired !
We still need to find an armoire and a dresser .
Fine ! I am going to go home and drop off this nightstand , coffee table and love seat while you look for the rest of the things .
Great ! Pick me up in about an hour because I think I ' ll also get a bean bag and a dining set .
While you are at it can you pick out a nice recliner ? I really want one so I can watch TV .
Recliner ? In my beautifully decorated living room ? I don ' t think so !

Merry Christmas !
Huh ?
I said Merry Christmas ! Don't you know that Christmas is almost here ?
It is ? Oh , that's nice .
Huh ? Didn't you know ? Aren't you excited ?
Actually , I'd forgotten about it .
Forgotten about it ? How could you ?
Because I'm not Christian , I'm Jewish .
Oh , I'm sorry . I didn't know .
It's all right . There are so many Christians in America that everybody takes it for granted that I'm Christian .
I guess so . So what do you do around this time of year ?
Well , I'll celebrate Hanukah soon , but that's not as important to us as Christmas is to you . Mainly I'll just enjoy the holiday break .
Well , would you be horribly offended if I invited you to a Christmas party at my house ?
Manhattan Square , please .
All right , sir . When are we supposed to be there ?
How do you feel about teaching my friend how to read ?
How old is your friend and why doesn't he know how to read ?
He's 78 and he's a new emigrant from South America and he's never been to school .
Does he even know how to speak English ?
No . But I thought that you could start with reading and then go from there .
That was very thoughtful of you to volunteer me .
Come on . You're great at teaching and I know you will love him . He's adorable !
Do you have the five dollars I lent you yesterday ?
Oh I forgot ! I'll run home real quickly and bring you the money .
You don't have to go right away .
I am here to get my prescription filled .
Your prescription will be ready in twenty minutes .
Do you ever deliver prescriptions by mail ?
Yes , in fact , you can renew this prescription over the Internet and have it delivered to your home .
How should I take this medication ?
You should take it twice a day .
Should I avoid alcohol with this medication ?
You need something in your stomach when you take it . Don ' t drink alcohol with this medication .
Should I expect any side effects ?
Good morning , Madam . What can I do for you ?
I need to have some money transferred from the UK , from my company . It's kind of an emergency .
That shouldn't be a problem , Madam . I'm sure we can sort this out for you quickly .
That would be wonderful . The problem is I don't have an account with you . That is a problem , isn't it ?
Well , to be honest , it will slow things down a little . But it's not a big problem . You can do it by T / T .
T / T ? What on earth is that ! ? Sorry , but I've never heard of it . T / T ?
Hello , Pam .
I'm glad that you can make it .
It looks like there are a lot of people inside .
Yeah . I've invited a lot of friends besides you .
Should I take my shoes off ?
We all keep our shoes on indoors .
Where are your parents ?
They've gone out so that we could have the house to ourselves .
What is today ?
Thursday .
So the weekend is coming ! How about seeing a film !
Hi , Lucy , you are very popular with people around you , what are your tricks ?
Thank you for saying so . I don ' t know , probably because I like sharing my experience and knowledge with them . I think this kind of communication helps to improve our work efficiency and also helps to get along with colleagues .
Sharing knowledge can be very settled and some second stances . People may think you are telling them how to do their work . If they take it personally , they feel angry at you and even become reluctant to support you at work .
That is true . Some people will misunderstand your intention and lets you do it in the long threatening way . For example , it is not sensible at all to arguing with the others or correcting someone in front of other people . To show your friendliness and willingness to share is much more important than to show off .
You are quite right . Thank you for sharing your experience with me . I learned a lot .
May I help you ?
Yes , I'm going to Europe on business and I need to purchase some Traveller's Cheques .
That's no problem . Which currency would you like to buy ?
I think Euros will be the best , as I'll only be in Mainland Europe .
Of course . Do you have your passport with you ? How much would you like to purchase ?
5,000 Euros will be sufficient , thanks .
Please fill in this form . How would you like it ? In 100 Euro cheques ?
Hi , Celia ! How was your trip to the United States ?
It was terrific . I really enjoyed it .
Great . How long were you away ?
I was there for about three weeks .
That's a long time ! Was the weather OK ?
Yes , most of the time . But it snowed a lot in Chicago .
So , what was the best thing about your trip ?
Well , that's why you'r here . My source for big TV sets overcharged me on the last shipment , so I need someone new . I wanted to meet you to see if we can work together . I think
I agree .
Fine , but before you agree , don't you need to know what you're agreeing to ?
I guess you're right . But like you said , you called me here to check me out . I've been doing the same .
Ha , ha , ha ! That's fair . How did I do ?
Quite good , actually . I'm pretty sure you're demanding , but fair and honest . I feel we can work together .
Good , well , here's what I need from you . Are you ready ?
Shoot !
Well , I know you work for someone else , but as your client , please , we have to get this straight between us . I'm your client , not your company . As your client , I expect you to be square with me at all times . Can you do that ?
I don't see a problem .
What do you like to do in your spare time ?
I like taking photos .
Really ?
Yes , look at the photos I took .
They are beautiful . You did a good job .
Thank you for saying so .
There are so many environment problems in the world today . Do you think we can really solve them all or will destroy the world ?
I hope that world leaders can get together and agree on a plan for action , but I doubt it ' ll happen before it ' s too late .
We need to solve the problem of air pollution before we destroy the atmosphere . There ' s lots of clean , modern technology , but companies in developed countries say it ' s expensive . Developing countries put more emphasis on economic development than on environment protection .
Everyone is looking at the issue in the short term , rather than the long term . It ' s the same with the destruction of the rainforests . Countries and companies just want the wood . They ' re not thinking about the long-term damage to the forests . We should also remember that the forests are an important natural habitat for thousands of species of animal and plant life .
In other parts of the world , especially in Africa , there is a problem with desertification . Climate change and over-farming are causing farmland to turn into desert . In means that people cannot grow enough food .
It also means that people sometimes fight over the famp 3land that remains . Damaging the environment actually leads to conflict between people .
Have you ever thought about joining an organization committed to protecting the environment ? You could get involved with projects to improve the environment .
Do you have any fresh baked donuts for sale yet ?
They will be ready in about half an hour . Do you need anything else ?
Yes , I'd like five croissants , too .
What would you reckon the taxing increases ?
Well , the state will benefit a lot , I suppose .
But what do most people think about it ?
Excuse me , driver , you have kept us waiting for 15 minutes . Can't we start the tour right now ?
I am sorry , sir , there are still 5 minutes remaining ... OK , it's time . We will take a roll call before starting the fantasy sightseeing .
Finally . How long does the tour last ?
May I invite you for a dance ?
With pleasure .
You dance well . Do you breakdance ?
Me , what brought that on ?
There's a story about breakdancing in the paper .
What does it say ?
According to the story , it's some sort of modern dance style .
Like disco ?
Well , breakdancing is more a physical exercise than a dance .
And disco a kind of nightclub .
Right , a disco is a place where people dance according to nonstop recorded music ...
So ... disco is what the music is called and a disco is a place where people go to dance to it . And breakdancing is a different sort of thing altogether .
I went to visit a customer in IVS Company the other day . Their offices were very impressive , especially their company Logo which is all over the place . There are Logo models in metal , copper , clove , paper . They are even printed on the wall paper and the balls of the table-lights . It is really decorated identity .
It is just too much . Don ' t you feel it is an exaggerating style to decorate offices in that way ?
Not at all ! I like the design so much . The designer must have thought really hard to come out with such a brilliant concept .
Sorry , honey , something has cropped up again . I have to deal with it . Perhaps I will go to back home till very late .
It's nothing . It's not the first time anyway .
Oh , come on . I will be back as early as possible .
Oh , my God ! I've been cheated !
What ? What did you buy ?
It's a brick ! I can't believe how stupid I was . Damn it !
What is it ? Why did you buy a brick ?
There was a guy on the sidewalk . He had three new boxes , Panasonic video camera boxes . He said he had to get rid of them quick .
And ?
So he said he'd sell me one for twenty dollars . A four-hundred-dollar camera for twenty bucks .
And it's a brick ?
Yes .
I can't believe how stupid you are . Why didn't you open the box ?
I wanted to . But he said , no , the box is still in its plastic wrap from the store . If it's opened , other people won't believe it's new .
So he had the boxes wrapped in plastic .
Yes , it was the kind of perfect plastic wrap that comes with new products . Look , it even had a bar-code price sticker on it ! It looked brand new .
But why would a guy be selling new video cameras for twenty dollars ?
He said he had to get rid of them . They were stolen .
Aha ! Now I understand . You were trying to buy stolen goods on the sidewalk . So , what I think is , you deserve to get cheated !
C'mon , don't blame me ! I thought it was a new camera . We could use it . We were even thinking about buying a camera . I don't understand how he could have such a perfect-looking box .
That's no problem . He just has a friend who works in a shop that can do plastic wrap . That's easy . And probably it's the same shop he got the boxes from . Maybe his friend works in an electronics store . They sell video cameras there . Probably they had a couple video camera boxes lying around . So they get the idea of wrapping bricks to sell to fools like you . Twenty dollars a brick . That's a good profit if they can sell enough bricks .
Can you tell me where the supply shop is ?
Sure . It ' s on basement level one . Turn right when you get off the elevator .
Great ! Thanks a lot !
Operator .
I wonder if you can help me .
I'll be happy to try .
Please wake me up at seven tomorrow morning .
May I have your name and room number , please ?
How do you like your work ?
The work is rather hard , but it's interesting .
What do you do ?
I work in a publishing house . How about you ?
Mine isn't hard , but it's not interesting .
What do you do then ?
Mr . Blake ? Mr . Foster ' s on the phone . He ' d like to know if you can send over those training manuals ?
Oh , tell him I ' ll leave them at his office tomorrow afternoon .
He was hoping that you could drop them off this afternoon .
That was a beautiful car . It ' s a new car , but it ' s totaled .
Well , your insurance covers sufficient money to replace it . So you don ' t need to worry .
I don ' t think I could afford that kind of car again . I think I ' ll have to choose something that is not as hard to replace .
Since you are not the one who caused the accident , your insurance cost should be the same .
What will happen if I chose a smaller car ? Would the payments be the same ?
If you got a smaller car , the cost should be a little less depending on the model , age , and size . Would you still want full coverage ?
When would you like me to send those plans over to your office , Mr . Montgomery ?
It would be good if you could get them to me by Thursday afternoon , Ms . Barkley .
That shouldn ' t be a problem . What is the exact address , again ?
Do you need help with something ?
I need help finding a new refrigerator .
Do you see anything that you like ?
That Kenmore looks nice .
That is a wonderful choice .
What makes is so great ?
It's very inexpensive , and it has all the appliances .
What appliances are you talking about ?
The fridge and freezer is very spacious , and it also has an ice maker and water dispenser .
May I take a look inside ?
Take a look inside .
What food do you fancy ?
I feel like something good to eat .
How about going to Joe's Restaurant .
May doesn't get along very well with her mother-in-law .
Yeah . That's just what is troubling John .
Poor John ! He is bettering bother sides of this bread .
You ' re working hard , George . What are you doing ?
I ' m making a bookcase . Give me that hammer please , Dan .
Which hammer . This one ?
No , not that one . The big one .
Here you are .
Thanks , Dan .
What are you going to do now , George ?
I ' m going to paint it .
What colour are you going to paint it ?
I ' m going to paint it pink .
Pink !
Good afternoon , sir . Gan I help you ?
Good afternoon , I want to pick up a new shaver since the old one has retired .
Which brand are you interested in ?
I'm still not sure . The type with top quality , I guess . Well , which one do you recommend ?
Do you prefer imported ones or domestic ones ?
It doesn't matter much . If it has high quality and reasonable price , it will be OK .
How about Flymo ? It's selling well .
Do you have a warranty on it ?
Of course . The warranty period is one year .
If there's something wrong with it in a week , can I come back to change it ?
Sure . But you must show us the receipt . If something comes up , we'll change it for you .
My wife and I are thinking about taking our parents with us on a vacation . Do you have any suggestion about where to go ?
The choice of destination is very important . It will too energetic for the old people if you make an excursion or go to climb mountains . But they'll be interested in going to the historical places of interest where they can have fun .
Sometimes what young people like is different from the old . Maybe we can go visit first and then do some shopping .
That's a good idea . That will allow both you and your parents to enjoy yourselves .
What should we bring besides a change of clothes , money and some snacks ?
It's some medicine the doctor recommends . If you leave it at home , you will find it difficult to face up when the old people suffered a seizure .
Oh , yes ! I didn't think about that . Thank you for reminding me . How many days should we spend on a vacation ?
You'd better have all a light schedule . You can rest up for a few days if your parents find tired .
It seems that good planning for a family vacation is important to make sure everyone will be happy .
Can I help you ?
Is This where I pay the airport tax ?
Yes , sir . Just as the sign says . How many ?
I'm sorry , but I've never done this before . How many what ?
How many people are you paying the tax for ?
My wife and me . The two of us .
100 yuan each , so you owe me 200 yuan .
Oh , OK . Here's 200 yuan .
Here are your two receipts .
Thanks . What shall I do then ?
Just give these receipts to the lady at the door to immigration . Don't worry , she'll ask for them from you .
Oh , I guess I'm a little confused .
We are all the same the first time we travel overseas . You guys have a nice trip .
She is so beautiful , isn't she ?
Who ?
Julia Roberts .
Yeah , she is so charming . I like her , too .
It's said that her new movie is going to come out .
What's the movie about ?
I'm not sure .
Isn't it silly to see a movie that you know nothing about ?
I already told you , because Julia Roberts is in it . I like her because she is not only a great actor but also is very generous to give a lot to many kinds of charities .
What's Beijing like ?
It ' s big and exciting but noisy .
What can I see in Beijing ?
You can see the Forbidden City .
What ' s it like ?
Wow , American football is more exciting than I thought .
You ' re in America now , my British friend . We just call it football .
Oh , right . So , I can ' t quite follow what ' s going on ... who ' s winning ?
The Giants are up by three points because of the field goal they kicked , but the Redskins have the ball and there pretty close to the end zone .
Wow ! What a hit !
Yeah , he tackled him so hard his helmet came off .
Is he ok ?
It looks like it , he ' s getting up .
I guess he hit him too hard ; the referee just called a penalty on the home team .
The Giants ?
Yeah .
Well , here we go again .
What happened ? Why did everyone get so quiet ?
Look ! There's even a built-in handle to carry it with .
But it's so thin . There's no way that it comes with a CD-ROM .
Oh , yes , it does . Look , here it says that the CD-ROM is built-in !
What other features are listed ?
It says that it comes in teal and tangerine .
Totally cool colors !
How many hours do you work a week ?
I do a forty-hour week . I ' m on flexi-time . I usually start work at 8 a . m . and finish at 4
And how many weeks holiday do you get a year ?
Four - plus public holidays . I usually take two weeks off in the summer and the rest at New Year .
Do you do overtime ?
How may I help you ?
I would like you to be my lawyer .
What can I do for you ?
I ' m going on trial .
What is your trial about ?
It ' s a felony charge .
I ' d be glad to help .
How much do you charge ?
My rate is $ 150 an hour .
That ' s highway robbery .
I don ' t know what to tell you .
I ' m really glad I got a chance to talk to you before you left , Mary . Have a safe trip !
Thanks . Try not to work too hard while I ' m away !
Yeah , I ' ll try not to ! See you after Christmas .
Is it all right for me to come in now . Mr . Sutcliffe ?
Well ... I'm pretty busy . but ... all right . come in . What can I do for you ?
Do you mind if I sit down ?
Not at all . Take a seat . Now , what can I do for you ?
I want to leave the department . Do you think I could put in for a transfer ?
Yes , but why should you want to do that ?
Do you mind if I speak frankly ?
Not at all . Go ahead .
Well , you see . I don't like the office . I don't like the staff . and I'm afraid you and I don't get on . So may I put in for a transfer ?
Is there anything I can do for you ?
I'm planning a trip to Europe .
Have you decided which city you want to go ?
Well , what's the price of this route ?
Now we have settled the terms of payment . Is it possible to effect shipment during September ?
I don't think we can .
Then when is the earliest we can expect shipment ?
By the middle of October , I think .
That's too late . You see , November is the season for this commodity in our market , and our Customs formalities are rather complicated .
I understand .
Besides , the flow through the marketing channels and the red tape involved take at least a couple of weeks . Thus , after shipment it will be four to five weeks altogether before the goods can reach our retailers . The goods must therefore be shipped before October ; otherwise we won't be in time for the selling season .
But our factories are fully committed for the third quarter . In fact , many of our clients are placing orders for delivery in the fourth quarter .
Mr . Brown , you certainly realize that the time of delivery is a matter of great importance to us . If we place our goods on the market at a time when all other importers have already sold their goods at profitable prices , we shall lose out .
I see your point . However , we have done more business this year than any of the previous years . I am very sorry to say that we cannot advance the time of delivery .
That's too bad , but I sincerely hope you will give our request your special consideration .
You may take it from me that the last thing we want to do is to disappoint an old customer like you . But the fact remains that our manufacturers have a heavy backlog on their hands .
But can't you find some way to get round your producers for an earlier delivery ? Make a special effort , please . A timely delivery means a lot to us .
Excuse me .
Yes ?
I'm in a hurry . How long will it take ?
About half an hour , if there's no traffic jam .
Do you think the traffic will be heavy ?
I doubt it . It's not rush hour .
Hello .
Hi , Lucy , are you free to talk ?
Not really , I ' m in a meeting . Can I call you back in ... say ... 15 minutes ?
Sure , speak to you later . It isn ' t urgent . Maybe it is easier if I send you an e-mail .
so , your friend ' s getting married on Saturday . What have you bought her as a wedding gift . I find is so hard to choose the right gift .
my friend and her fiance had a really good idea . They have cut out pictures from catalogues and pasted them in a notebook . The picture are of things they want . People sign their name b
that ' s clever ! Then everyone knows that they are buying something the couple really want and there ' s no chance of two people buying the same gift . What things were in the notebook ?
most of the things were household appliance . You know , everything from an iron through a vacuum cleaner to a cooker . I think it ' s an excellent way for everyone who knows the couple to help
so , what did you get them ?
I bought a sewing machine . I know that my friend likes making her own clothes , but her current sewing machine is quite old and has some problems .
what ' s wrong with is ?
she says that after several years of use , it ' s not working properly . When she uses it , it makes a funny noise .
household appliance don ' t seem to last for a long time nowadays .
Oh , dear . My weight has gone up again .
I'm not surprised . You eat too much .
And I suppose sitting at a desk all day at the office doesn't help .
Yes , I think so .
I do wish I could lose weight
Well , why don't you go on a diet ?
I've tried diets before but they've never worked .
Perhaps you should exercise more . Why don't you go to an exercise class ?
Waiter , bring me the menu , will you ?
Just a moment , I'm coming . ( ten minutes later ) . Now , what would you like ?
I'd like to see the menu . Would you get me one , please ?
Yes , certainly . Here you are .
Thank you . Ah ! But this is in French . Would you mind giving me the English menu ?
It's written in English too , in smaller print . There .
Thanks . I'll need a while to choose . Could you come back in a minute ?
Right . ( five minutes later ) Now , what are you having ?
I'm sorry , I haven't decided yet . Do you mind giving me a couple of minutes ?
Will you be okay when you immigrate to America ?
Sure , I'm looking forward to it .
What about your parents ?
I would like to make a reservation for tomorrow .
I'm sorry but we are fully booked .
Well , how about 4th ?
That's fine , but we have only a single room , is that OK ?
I really don ' t understand my parents . They always make light of my worries .
They think you are just a child .
But the child has his own feeling .
I was inquiring about a bill that I never got .
Which credit card was the bill for ?
The bill was for my Master Card .
That bill should have been mailed about two weeks ago .
It never came in the mail .
My computer shows that it has already been mailed .
I have not gotten my bill , so what should I do about that ?
You should try contacting your post office .
If it is the post office's fault , may I have an extension on my bill ?
You'll have to prove it was their error ; then you can get an extension .
Thank you for all your help .
May I help you ?
I can ' t find the book I want .
Why don ' t you try looking at the database ?
I checked it already .
Do we have it available ?
It wasn ' t there .
I guess it is lost .
Will you be getting another copy ?
Yes , we will .
Could you reserve a copy for me ?
I can do that .
Look , who's here , Peter !
Oh , Tom ! I thought you were in Paris .
Just got back . Good to see you !
I ' ll sing you a song .
Yes , sing a song . But don ' t sing a sad song .
Most of my songs are sad , sorry .
Well , please sing one that ' s not sad .
Hello , how are you ? I am Jack .
Hello , I am Amy .
What brings you here ?
I saw that your Corollas are on sale .
Yes , it is really a good deal . $ 1,000 discount . I've never seen a sale as good as this one .
Tell me about Corollas .
Sure . It has 1 . 8 liter engine . This one comes with all power options , air condition , CD player , full size spare tire , automatic transmission and ABC . The window price is $ 17,000 , and I can give You for $ 16 . 000 .
Sounds good . How about $ 15 , 000 ?
You must be kidding ! You cannot get that price anywhere .
I am serious . $ 15,000 .
Can you put down a $ 2,000 deposit , and I'll talk to my manager , see what we can do .
No . Just talk to your manager and let me know .
Okay , I'll be right back ... Congratulations ! The manager approved the final price $ 15,000 .
The price is fine if you give me free security system and free carpet mats .
You are really tough . You got a deal .
Hello , is Mr Over there
Sorry , madam . I afraid you have a wrong number . we don't have Mr Over here .
I want 6420422 3 , is that right ?
No , you give a wrong number .
oh , I'm sorry to bother you .
Do you have a copy of our service contract with Telecoms ? I'm not happy with their response time and I'd like to check the terms and conditions of the contract .
It has a receiver , a CD player , a double cassette deck , and a turntable .
Okay , let me take a look .
The CD player is a three-disk player . Here , we'll put a disk in so you can check out the sound . ( He puts a CD into the CD player . )
Sounds pretty good . I see the equalizer has a good selection of settings .
You can also play Ccds on it if you hook it up to your TV .
Hmm . This system seems to have everything I'm looking for . It's a bit pricey , though . I'll have to think about it . Thanks for your help .
Hi , I'm home ! Can you double that recipe ? I ran into an old friend after work and invited him for dinner .
No problem . Who is it ? Anyone I know ?
I don't think so . Do you remember Bob Gain from Tulsa ?
That name doesn't ring a bell . But tell me more .
He was on the diving team with me in high school and saved my life one day .
Well , I'll have to personally thank him by making him my famous chocolate cake .
You're glad he saved me , huh ?
Good morning . So this is the first day for you to work here , I hope you'll like your job .
Good morning , Ms . Wilson . I've got a lot to learn from you . I think I'll enjoy working with you .
I hope so . Now let me tell you your duties here . This is your desk . Please sit down .
Thank you .
Your main duty is to answer the phone calls and transfer them to the person wanted .
I see . What if the person wanted is out ?
In that case , you are supposed to ask the caller to leave a message .
Is there anything else I should do ?
Yes , you are responsible for keeping all files in order .
All right .
If you have any questions . I will help you .
what's the matter with you ? You look so upset and tired .
My father failed in business .
Oh , that's really tough .
Maybe it is the most difficult period of my family have experienced .
I can understand . By the way , is there anyway I can help ?
No , not now . I have found a part-time job . So perhaps I can help my family to come over the difficulties .
Oh , that's so great , bless you ! if you need me , I'll always be there .
Do you like playing table tennis ?
Certainly .
When did you start it ?
Do you have any work experience in this field ?
Yes . After my graduation from university , I worked as a Customer Service Coordinator in a foreign representative office , and then I transferred to a joint venture as a Market Development Manager . So I am familiar with the market in China .
What have you learned from the jobs you have had ?
I learned to be patient when dealing with customers complaints and try my best to solve them . In addition , I learned at my previous jobs how to cooperate with my colleagues .
Does your current employer know you are looking for another job ?
No , I haven't discussed my leaving plans with my current employer , but I am sure he will release me .
What is your impression of your present company ?
Very good .
What would your current colleague say about you ?
At what age do children start school in your country ?
At five .
Do boys and girls go to school together ?
Yes , they do .
Do you think this is a good idea ?
Yes , I do .
Do some children go on to university ?
Yes , they do .
What examinations do they take first ?
O levels and A levels .
How long do you usually stay at university ?
It's a sunny day , isn't it ?
Yes , it is . I'm Jennifer . Nice to meet you .
My name is David . Nice to meet you , too .
Are you American ?
No , I'm a Britisher . Where do you come from ?
I come from America . Are you a freshman ?
Yes . What about you ?
Me , too .
Great . Maybe we can study and play games together . I think we can be good friends .
Hello , is that the Peace Restaurant ?
Yes . May I help you ?
Yes . I'd like a table for six at 7:00 this evening . Can you arrange it for us ?
Just a minute . I'll check if there is any availability . I'm sorry , sir . There isn't any table left for 7:00 , but we can give you one at 8: 00 . Would you like to make a reservation at that time ?
Let me see . It seems a little late .
Usually , the restaurant will be quieter at that time .
OK . I'll change the time to 8: 00 .
Very good , sir . A table for 6 at 8: 00 this evening . May I have your name , please ?
It's John .
Hi , Linda . I haven't seen you for ages .
Yes . I miss you very much .
So do I .
Have you graduated from college ?
hi , Betty . what ' s up ?
nothing special . how about you ? Are you used to the life here in the States ?
everything has been fine for the past several months .
great !
well , I wish someone could talk to me about Western table manners
sounds interesting . Where did you get the idea ?
as you know , table manners in China are quite different from those of Westerners .
absolutely . that's because both of us have distinctive cultural features .
for example , in China , it's okay to talk while eating . However , you may regard it as rude .
yes . this must be a huge difference .
can you think of anything else ?
sure . We tend to think that the slower on eats , the more polite one seems .
I didn't know that before .
and we never sip or slurp the soup loudly . we quietly like little mouthfuls .
i got it . i'll bear it in mind .
don't worry . i'm sure our etiquette will become a natural part of your behavior as time goes by .
Can I help you ?
Wait a minute , please .
Have you made a reservation ?
No , I'd like to book a single room with one double bed .
How long will you be staying ?
2 nights , how much does it cost ?
A single room costs you $ 85 / day .
Does the charge include everything ?
Yes .
Do you require a deposit ?
it ' s such a nice day outside . Let ' s take a walk into town and do some window-shopping .
you know I hate shopping more than anything else in this world .
I know . But we could get some exercise in , and we could get some errands run , too . Window-shopping won ' t cost you anything .
what kind of errands do we need to run ?
well , we could go to the newsagent ' s to pick up the Sunday paper , go to the butcher ' s to pick up a chicken for a roast dinner , and to the chemist ' s to pick up your prescription from the doctor .
I ' ll only go if we can stop at the office-license to pick up something to drink for tonight .
fine , we ' ll do that on the way home , so we don ' t have to carry it the whole time .
sounds good . You have to promise not go into any of the stores in the mall though . I know how you like to try things on in the fitting rooms , especially if the stores have special offers .
I promise . We ' re only going for a walk to get some exercise and to get some things done that we haven ' t had time for .
ok , let ' s go then !
do you have any money ?
for what ?
for our errands , and maybe a little extra for something from a vendor on the street .
you said you were only going to window shop !
I agreed to not go into the mall , but I can still look at things in the market !
Hi , Becky , what's up ?
Not much , except that my mother-in-law is driving me up the wall .
What's the problem ?
She loves to nit-pick and criticizes everything that I do . I can never do anything right when she's around .
For example ?
Well , last week I invited her over to dinner . My husband and I had no problem with the food , but if you listened to her , then it would seem like I fed her old meat and rotten vegetables . There's just nothing can please her .
No , I can't see that happening . I know you're a good cook and nothing like that would ever happen .
It's not just that . She also criticizes how we raise the kids .
My mother-in-law used to do the same thing to us . If it wasn't disciplining them enough , then we were disciplining them too much . She also complained about the food we fed them , the schools we sent them too , and everything else under the sun .
You said she used to ? How did you stop her ?
We basically sat her down and told her how we felt about her constant criticizing , and how we welcomed her advice but hoped she'd let us do our things . She understood , and now everything is a lot more peaceful .
I call this meeting to order . Thank you all in attendance today , I know it's a busy day for you all . We have a lot of material to cover today . Did everyone get an agenda ?
I need a copy of the agenda . Also , may I suggest something ? I know we have many points to review today , but would it be possible to limit our meeting time to finish before four o'clock ? Many of us still have a mountain of work to do before the day's end .
We should be able to finish everything up before then . Let's run through the major points first , and see where we're at . The first matter of business is to approve the minutes of our last meeting .
I propose we accept the minutes .
Good . Do I have a second ?
I second .
motion carried . Now , next on our agenda is our budget review . Margaret , can you please fill us in on where the budget review stands ?
I gave everyone a copy of the manual last week . We've had the review board going over everything , and they have come up with a final review . Here's a copy for everyone , and if you have any questions , you can talk to me after the meeting . Basically , the budget review has been completed , with maybe a few polishing details left .
What kind of action is required ?
Well , I've got to go . See you later .
See you . Have a nice day !
What is your corporation website address ?
It is ' www . job . com '
Is there a dot after ' com ' ?
Welcome to our university ' s fifties anniversary , Sir . Please have a seat .
Thank you . Wow , your school has so many honors . Congratulations !
Thank you .
Excuse me . I wonder see Dean Mr . Lee first . I was wondering if could you tell me where his office is ?
Certainly . Mr . Lee ' s office building at the south end of the campus , just beside the library .
Excuse me ?
Let me show you the way . Please follow me .
Thank you very much . It ' s very kind of you .
My pleasure .
This is it ?
Mr . Smith , while you're out , the sales department called and asked you to lunch next Wednesday .
I'll put them in my schedule . Are there any other messages ?
Oh , yes , Miss Chen informed that the monthly management meeting has been changed to July 11 and I've marked your diary accordingly .
Thanks a lot .
How are things with you ?
I ' m fine . Thank you .
How may I help you ?
I need to make a deposit .
Will you be depositing cash or a check ?
I will be depositing cash .
How much would you like to deposit ?
It ' s going to be $ 300 .
What account would you like to deposit that into ?
Could you deposit that into my checking account , please ?
Can I do anything else for you today ?
This little wooden stick is called a tee .
What do you do with it ?
For the first drive , put the golf ball on the tee , and push the tee into the ground .
Okay .
Pick up a wood and hold it like this , interlocking your fingers .
OK .
Position yourself , swinging the club , watch the ball and hit it as hard as you can .
Hey !
Not too bad . The goal is to get the ball into the hole with as few hits as possible .
What can I do for you ?
I am returning these books .
What did you do to this book ?
I accidentally ripped the cover .
You will need to pay for the damage .
How much do I need to pay ?
I ' m going to need $ 5 . 00 .
That ' s not too expensive .
It isn ' t .
Here ' s the $ 5 . 00 .
Thank you .
What ' s the area of your country ?
It ' s not very big . It ' s a little over half a million square kilometers .
That sounds quite big ! How many people live there ?
There are about 30 million people in my country . Most of them live in the north .
What ' s the average income ?
That ' s the really hard to say . I think most people earn about two thousand dollars a month , if you convert the money from our currency into dollars .
So your country is fairly rich .
I think we are richer than most countries , but not as rich as countries in western Europe . Our biggest problem at the moment is unemployment , which is roughly 8 % . It has doubled over the last four years .
Good morning , can I help you ?
I'd like to book a ticket to Singapore , please .

The flight number is Cz353 . it departs at 17:10 and arrives at 45 .
Okay . I will book this flight .
Your passport , please .
Hi , sir . Could you tell me where the Hilton Hotel is ?
Well , there are two Hilton Hotels around here . Which one is your destination ?
Eh , let me see . Sorry , I can't remember it , because I've been there only once , accompanied by my friends .
Then , it would be a little bit harder to find out your way . Do you remember the name of the street , or one or two landmarks ?
A bookstore , probably . With a yellow and orange logo .
Good , any other clues ?
I remembered there is a very busy street several miles away . I waited for the traffic light for a very long time .
Oh , is there a bank near there , Standard Charted possibly ?
Oh , yeah , I got it , there is a bank My friend exchanged her money there .
That's the second branch hotel of Hilton . Walk straight down and you will see the bookstore you just mentioned . Turn left , I believe , you will get it .
Lodge , You must come around sometime , You have to check out my mew stereo .
Sure , When is good time for you ?
Can you make it on Tuesday ?
What time do you want me there ?
Anytime after six will be fine .
I am very proud of John .
Me too . No one has expected he can really get somewhere with his business .
Excuse me , where is the Beijing Railway Station ?
You can take the subway to get there .
How long will it take to get there ?
It takes only ten minutes .
May I take a bus or a taxi to get there ?
You can take No . I bus or a taxi .
Excuse me , sir . Where is the No . 1 bus stop ?
Please turn right at the traffic lights .
I like football best of all .
Do you ?
It's a very good game .
Do you watch it or do you still play it ?
What's going on with you ?
Nothing . What's going on with you ?
I'm having a party this Friday .
I had no idea .
Is that right ?
I didn't hear anything about it .
Can you go ?
What time ?
It starts at 8 o'clock .
I'll go .
I hope that I'll see you there .
After you .
No , after you . Ladies first .
What do you think of the plan for the new airport near here ?
Perhaps they should give it a second thought . The residents are getting up in arms about it .
What's this then ?
It's my geography , sir . The Map of Africa you set us .
But this should have been handed in last Thursday .
Yes , I know , sir . I'm sorry .
Well , what's your excuse then ?
My mother's been ill and I had to stay at home .
Oh , Yes ?
Jimmy , I ' d like to wear this robe for tonight cocktail party . What do you think of it ?
Don ' t dress like that . You ' ll make fool yourself . You look stupid in that robe .
What ? But it is my favorite piece of clothing .
Maybe it is . But it ' s out of fashion .
What am I going to do ?
I want to reserve a VIP room at 7:00 this evening .
OK , sir . How many people are there in your party ?
8 . Is your VIP room big enough for 8 persons ?
Wow ! They've got everything here . All the world's famous brands . Aunt Cindy , what is your favorite brand ?
I love all the fashionable things . But my favorite brand is Chanel .
Oh , that's a very expensive brand , but with good reason .
Yeah . Each style is specially designed by world's top designers . So they can always make you look amazing .
I see . Come here . The high heels here look really attractive . But I wonder whether it's comfortable to wear any of them ?
Not really , especially at the beginning , if you wear high heels all day long , your feet would hurt . But , no big deal . Women can always get used to that .
It's not a simple thing to be beautiful .
Sure . But everyone loves to be beautiful . Hey , do you think this pair of sunglasses matches the handbag well ?
Yeah , very tasteful . And with them , you look even more fashionable . Oh , there are so many French perfumers . Oops , perfumes for guys ? So strange !
Come on . Fashion is not only for women . Men also share the equal right to chase fashion . It's the new fashion for men to wear perfumes , which is called cologne .
Oh , really , that's really something new . I'm afraid not everyone can accept it .
It takes time for that . But people's consuming attitudes are changing quickly .
That's true . Well , it's obvious that fashion is not a cheap thing . So , do you spend all your money on it ?
No . Fashion is just part of my life , which improves its quality . But also , I'm good at financing . I have a credit card , but I never overdraft .
How is it that you are my mom's sis ? You two are so different . She always picks up bargains and spends more than she earns . You do so much better than her .
Hello . May I speak to Brian , please ?
Sorry , you have the wrong number . There's no Brian here .
Is this 777-9345 ?
No , it's 777-9344 ?
Oh , I ' m so sorry .
Good morning , sir . Do you have a reservation ?
Yes . My name is Charles .
I see . We have a window table reserved for you .
It's very kind of you .
Would you like to order now or wait for a while ?
Dad , I'm scared .
Take it easy , honey . It's just raining cats and dogs .
But , dad , it's stormy outside .
Honey , it's just windy and raining outside .
Do you have the time ?
John dates her seven times a week .
Really ? That's a straws in the wind .
I think so . Maybe he's fallen for her .
Do you offer a course in business management ?
Yes , we do .
How many nights a week is it ?
It's 3 nights a week , Monday , Tuesday and Thursday .
And how long does the course last ?
It lasts for 9 months .
When does it start ?
The next beginning class starts on October 25th .
What time is the class ?
From 7 to 9 o'clock .
How much does it cost ?
It costs 125 dollars a month .
Yes , that's all right . I want to enroll in the course .
Thank you , please fill out this form for us .
Do you want me to fill it out now ?
Do you want to settle the bill now ?
Yes . Do you accept traveler's checks ?
Yes , we do .
Very good .
Do you have any identification ?
Yes , I have my driver's license .
How about this opera given by the famous musician ?
Here's the restaurant we're meeting the Smiths at .
Let's go in to wait for them .
Hello , may I help you ?
Well , I'm looking for some winter clothes . And I notice you have pre-season sale on all your winter apparel .
Yes , everything is 25 % off .
Do you have any skirt that will go with this sweater ?
Sure , we have both skirts and slacks that will go well with the sweater . I especially like this flowery skirt . It's very much in style this year .
I don't think that shade of green will go with my complexion . Do you have any of those skirts in black or tan ?
Look on the rack to your right .
I need order in the court !
I am ready to make my plea .
What do you plead ?
I plead not guilty .
All the evidence indicates that you are guilty .
I realize that , but I am not guilty .
Is that right ?
I had nothing to do with the crime that was committed .
Who is the guilty party ?
I ' ll tell you if you let me go .
I ' d be glad to make a deal with you .
Where would you like to have your dinner ?
I don't care as long as it's a Chinese restaurant .
You don't like Western food ?
So are you going to get a new swimsuit ?
Yeah , I think I'll get this one-piece .
Why don't you get a bikini ?
I'm too fat for a bikini .
You aren't fat . I'll bet you'd look great in a bikini . How about this thong bikini ?
I'll wear that if you'll wear these Speedos .
I can't believe it ! I lost .
It looks like you have to buy tickets for us , Jason . And we're not going to see an action movie !
That's not fair , you got all the easy questions .
I guess that's just the luck of the draw .
I want a rematch . Let's play again .
You seem to like her very much , don't you ?
I can't deny that . She is so beautiful that I fell in love with her at the first sight . I wish I knew more about her .
But I heard that she had a three-year-old girl .
I want to redo this poster , but John and Mary think it's good enough as it is .
Would you please weigh this letter to see what the postage is ?
Do you want to send it by ordinary or registered mail ?
By ordinary air mail , please .
Anything of value in it ?
A postal order for four hundred dollars .
In that case , you'd better have it registered .
Will I be informed when my friend gets the letter ?
Yes , when your friend gets it , he'll sign a receipt , which will be sent to you by mail . Then you can be sure it's been received .
We have absolute proof that you committed the crime .
What do you think of the apartment ?
I like it , but there is one problem .
What problem is that ?
The faucet in the kitchen is leaking .
I don ' t understand what the big deal is .
That leak is a problem for my water bill .
What you would like me to do about it ?
The leak must be fixed .
I won ' t be able to fix it at the moment .
I will not rent the apartment with that leaking faucet .
If that ' s the case , then I will fix the faucet .
How did you choose courses when you were abroad ?
That's a very good question . Choosing proper courses and effectively planning a college schedule is very important to the progress toward your educational goal . In order to do these wisely and effectively , you should consult with a Program Adviser or Academic Counselor .
Wait a minute . There are some new terms for me . I can hardly follow you .
Ok , I will go into more detail . A Program Adviser or an Academic Counselor is usually an experienced professor who is responsible for all the necessary academic counseling through graduation . You can discuss with him the program selection , changing or adding a program , the requirements for graduation , and other problems related to your study . You will choose some courses , and then discuss with the adviser whether your choice can meet the requirements for graduation .
Everything is so new to me . I think I'll have to experience a very difficult period when I get there .
Sure , very difficult .
I am very grateful for your advice .
Mom , what are you doing ?
I'm clipping coupons .
Still clipping coupons ?
It's a good way to save money .
Saving money ? How much money can you save by those 1 or 2 dollar discount coupons ?
Can I have the menu , please ?
Can I borrow one of your pens , Amy ?
Have you obtained any certificate of technical qualifications or license ?
Yes , I have received an Engineer's Qualification Certificate and a driver's license .
How many years have you had the driver's license ?
I have two years driving experience .
That's good . What special skills do you have , can you tell me ?
I have experience in computer operation , proficiency in Microsoft Windows , Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel .
What computer languages have you learned ?
Visual C + + , C and Delphi .
Have you gotten any special training in programming ?
Hello , do you have any vacancies ?
Yes , something just opened up .
What kind of apartment is it ?
Good evening . Do you have a reservation ?
No , we don't .
How many people are you together ?
Just two people .
Would you like to sit in a smoking section , a non-smoking section or whatever comes open first ?
We prefer non-smoking section .
I am awfully sorry but there are no vacancies left now . Would you like to wait for a moment ?
How long a wait do you think there ' ll be ?
I think about ten minutes .
Ok , we'll wait a while .
I am sorry for making you wait so long . Now there is a table available in non-smoking section . Please follow me .
Thank you .
This is the menu . Are you ready to order now ?
Well , I think I'd like to have a tomato sausage soup first . And the same for him , please .
Yes , and what would you like to drink ?
One goblet of red wine and one bottle of beer please .
Would you like a dessert ?
What special kind of desserts do you have ?
Lemon pie , hot cake in syrup , chocolate sundae and custard pudding .
Well , I think we will order after we finish the main course .
Melanie , can you help me with something ? We need to finalize the account with the Mexican Embassy and , I need some advice on phrasing this letter correctly in English .
Sure Tracy , let me just get my laptop .
Okay , so ... To Whom It May Concern , I am writing .
Um , Tracy ? I think that ' s a little too formal . I know you want to be polite but you've already made contact with them , so in English you can be more relaxed in the opening ...
Okay , more relaxed . Got it . Hey , Sally , what ' s up ? It's Tracy here , just .
Okay Tracy , now it's too relaxed ! You've still got to show some respect . How about starting with " Dear Ms . Cooper , I'm writing to confirm ... ?
Great , okay . " Dear Miss Cooper , I'm writing to confirm the final quotation for the full page back cover color advertisement you requested for the spring issue of Voila magazine " .
That's great ...
" The final costing , including advert design and production , comes to forty-five thousand six hundred RIB . We want payment ten working days before publication or we will cancel the ad . Thanks for ... "
Woo , okay , back up a second , Tracy . That's too direct . Can I suggest you say , please note that final payment is due two working weeks before publication ? You don't want to offend her .
Oops , okay . You are right . Then I can just end with " All the best , Tracy " .
Mmmm , maybe , but I'd play it safe and just finish with " Yours Sincerely " . That's more professional .
Do you drive a car yourself ?
Yes , I just bought new car , I drive to work everyday !
Great ! When you become new driver , you are better drive as carefully as possible !
Sure , I see safety is most important thing ! Accident is awful ! I will take your advice !
Besides , traffic signal in downtown area are very annoying , are they ?
Yes , definitely ! You can't drive freely !
Now , we are out of the town , you can drive freely !
Compare with speaking , yes ! But things are not good as you expecting !
Why not ?
Can you see that road side help ?
Yes , We are going to across real road .
That's right . We have to slow down again . If we haven't meet the passing tree , we have to stop a car away .
What other signs what we see in road area like this ?
Good morning . Vane Theater , at your service .
Hello . I'm thinking about watching a Chinese traditional opera with a foreign girl . What's on this weekend ?
Well , there will be charity performance on Saturday night . And also , there will be a solo concert by an opera star on Sunday night .
It's a good thing that I have choices here . Can you tell me about the one on Saturday ?
Sure . It's to raise money for the homeless .
What about the performance itself ?
Oh , it's a reserved opera named ' The Monkey Creates Havoc in Heaven ' .
Wow , a story about the clever Monkey King . It's a classic and children's favorite .
It surely is . And the cast is really the best .
Wonderful ! How much is the ticket ?
The price varies according to the seats . 300 for the front , 200 for the middle , and 50 for the back . Which kind would you like ?
Two for the front . One last thing , are there any English subtitles for the show ?
Yes , we have subtitles both in Chinese and English on the big-screen just beside the stage .
Terrific . May I stop by to get that two tickets tomorrow afternoon ?
Sure . And our theater is located on Liberty Avenue , just opposite the biggest guitar store . Can I have your name ?
B . S-H-I-R-L-E-Y .
I really love this meal .
Thanks . I was hoping that you would all enjoy this meal .
Where did you learn to cook these amazing dishes ?
I got a really wonderful cookbook for my birthday and decided to try out a few of the recipes .
The chicken is out of this world !
I love that dish as well . It is coconut chicken with rice .
I was wondering if there was shrimp in the soup .
Yes , that soup has a shrimp base . I also added sea vegetables and lemon grass .
It worked out well that the wine that I brought to share seems to blend well with this meal .
Have you heard we'll have a pay rise ?
Oh , it has nothing to do with me .
It's a pity , but why ?
Operator .
Hello . I'd like to make a call to Australia .
You can call direct if you like .
Oh , can I ?
Yes , please .
Could you please tell me the international prefix and the country code for Australia ?
Yes , the code for Australia is 61 and then dial the city code and the number . Start with the international code which is 00 .
What time do the special rates apply ?
Between six in the evening and eight in the morning , sir .
I wonder if I can charge this call to my hotel room .
Certainly . Tell me the room number and your name , please ?

OK , Mr . Ma . I'll tell the front desk clerk the charge afterwards .
Thanks very much for your help .
You're welcome . Bye .
Betty , would you please read this letter of application I've just written ? I'd like to have your opinion .
I'd be glad to tell you what I think .
Good ! I'm interested in your advice .
If I were you , I would change the beginning . You should write about your education first because we like to judge a man by his abilities .
Good idea , Betty . What would you think about the second part ?
I think it's too short . You'd better say something about your work experience .
You're right , I'll change it . How about the last part ?
Very good . But you should talk about your family , too .
Good morning . sir . How may I serve you today ?
I'd like a cup of mocha .
Sure . Large or medium ?
Medium , please .
Anything else to go ?
Yeah . give me a chocolate bar also .
You've got it .
Please have them wrapped . I'll take them away .
Sure . It's seven eighty-nine .
Here's eight dollars . Keep the change .
Hello . City News . Can I help you ?
Hello . My name is Jessica Smith . I ' d like to cancel the newspaper .
Okay . What ' s your account number ?
8902365 .
And your address , please ?
845 lincoln Avenue .
When do you want it cancelled ?
Beginning the first day of next month .
I need help picking out a lotion .
It would be my pleasure to help you . What do you need help with ?
I picked up some poison oak while hiking , and I can ' t stop itching .
We have Techne , and it is available in lotion or cream .
Do you find that one works better than the other ?
I have heard that the cream is longer lasting .
Is there anything I can take that will help with the itching ?
If you take an antihistamine , that would help a lot .
Thank you for helping me figure out what to do with my poison oak .
What are you doing there with your mobile phone ?
I'm moblogging !
Moblogging ? what does that mean ?
Oh , moblogging is a combination of the word ' mobile ' and ' blogging ' . It's another form of blogging . Users can publish blog entries to the web from a mobile phone or other mobile devices .
Sounds interesting ! That must be very convenient .
Yes , you're right . I can blog wherever and whenever I'm on the move . It's especially good when I'm on a business trip and my laptop happens to be away from me .
How can you do that ?
Well , if I simply want to write a few words , I'll send it by email or edit it all from the cell phone browser .
What if you want to publish some photos ?
Then I'll shoot some pictures , re-size the images and upload them with text descriptions to my blog .
I see . Moblogging must have done a great favor for habitual bloggers like you .
Excuse me , can you tell me which is Bob Rice's office ?
Sure . It's the third office down this hall . Are you looking for Bob ?
Yes . He told me to come by this morning .
I'm sorry , but he's not in the office now . Do you have an appointment ?
An appointment ?
Yes . What time did he expect you ?
He said I should come by this morning . He didn't give me a time . He said I could come any time before noon .
I see . He's usually here on Tuesday mornings ...
Today is Tuesday .
I know . He's usually here , but today he went out to a site on the east side .
That's too bad . I need to discuss these plans with him .
Why don't you make an appointment for later in the week ?
Alright .
He's here on Tuesdays , Wednesdays and Fridays . What day did you want to see him ?
Friday is good .
Morning or afternoon ?
Morning .
I can put you down for ten o'clock . Is that alright ?
Yes . My name is Laura Wills .
Alright . I have you down for ten AM this Friday .
Thank you .
OK , so this is our newest machine . It was only installed last year .
What's the running speed of the machine ?
About 1,500 metres per minute . It's one of the fastest in the world . We had a few problems with it after start-up but it's running very well now .
And what's the maximum output ?
Hello , 35 ..
Is this Ann ?
Speaking .
Ann , this is Sam . Look , Ann . I wanna see you again . How about a drink tonight ?
I am sorry . I am very tired . I'm going to bed early .
What about tomorrow evening ?
No , I ' m sorry . I'm going to meet some friends tomorrow evening . And I'm in a hurry now .
Have a nice weekend !
Thanks . You too !
Do you have any plans ?
Well , my family's away and I can't afford to do much . What about you ?
Say , Jim , how about going for a few beers after dinner ?
You know that is tempting but is really not good for our fitness .
What do you mean ? It will help us to relax .
Do you really think so ? I don't . It will just make us fat and act silly . Remember last time ?
I guess you are right . But what shall we do ? I don't feel like sitting at home .
I suggest a walk over to the gym where we can play singsong and meet some of our friends .
That's a good idea . I hear Mary and Sally often go there to play singsong . Perhaps we can make a foursome with them .
Sounds great to me ! If they are willing , we could ask them to go dancing with us . That is excellent exercise and fun , too .
Good . Let's go now .
Excuse me sir . May I come in ?
Mike , you're late again .
I'm sorry , but my sister was ill , so I
Do you think I believe the story like that ?
But it's true .
How can believe it if the same excuse was used twice within a week ?
That's coincidence .
Ok , hold it . Remember to be punctual next time .
I promise I will .
I'm bored and got nothing to do tonight .
How about coming with me to meet my American friends ?
Hey , that sounds great .
Don't be afraid . Give it a try .
Do you feel like going to see Paul and Claire tonight ?
I'd like that very much .
How does 7:30 sound ?
I am so sorry that I must be off now . My girlfriend told me I must arrive at her home in ten minutes or she will break up with me .
The May Day holiday is coming . Have you made any plan ? Are you going to stay here or go out for a traveling ?
I haven ' t decided yet . But I may go out .
Where have you planned to go ?
I want to go to Shanghai , but I also want to visit Hainan .
Then which will be your first choice ?
I don ' t know . How about you ? are you staying here or somewhere .
I have decided to go to Tasha .
By train or by plane ?
We can't wait any longer ...
I'm terribly sorry to be so late . I had an article ...
You'll knock yourself out the way you've worked . Why don't you slow down ?
I can't afford to .
All right . Now that everybody's here . Shall we be getting started ? Miss Lin , are you ready ?
Yes , thanks . Before I start , I'd like to thank Professor Smith for all his help in giving me unlimited access to his research materials .
Excuse me , Miss Lin . Would you mind speaking up , please ? I can't hear you very well .
The sun is up ! Time for all the campers to rise . Time to get paddling .
Oh , no ! No more paddling ! My arms are sore !
Do not worry . Today will be easier .
Beth , what date is today ?
Today is Saturday .
What is the date today ?
Today is July 4th .
Oh , i almost forgot . Today is my mom's birthday .
Call her on my cell phone . Wish her " Happy Birthday ! " Tell her you are out exploring the great American wilderness . Tell her I said she is lucky to be born on Independence Day .
Thanks ! I will do that ! When is your birthday ?
It is December 25th .
Wow ! What a lucky girl ! Your birthday is on Christmas Day .
Yes , I am lucky . I was born on Christ ' s birthday . Maybe that is why I usually go to church on Sundays . When is your birthday ?
April 2nd . I missed being a target of a lot of jokes by one day . I guess I am lucky , too !
That is true ! Here , have some Granola for breakfast .
Thanks .
After eating , we will take down our tent . Then we will pack everything into the canoe , We can shove off by 6
I guess so .
How about going for swim around 10
That should work out great . You are miracle worker ! You have got me awake and motivated .
To be a revolutionary needs great courage !
He must be courageous enough to fly in the face of established authorities .
Galileo is one of them .
Good morning , Mr . Huang . It's a pleasure to meet you again .
Pleased to see you . Welcome to our company . I hope you have a good day .
Thank you . Can I meet my colleagues ?
Sure , come with me . Hello , Michael , this is Steven . He will be part of your team .
Hi , Steven , welcome to join us !
I ' Ve been looking forward to meeting you . I am new to the working world and would appreciate your guidance .
That ' s right . Just call me if you need anything .
That's great .
Well , as the other guys are still not in , I ' ll introduce you to them later .
Have you seen that house ?
Yes , it looks interesting .
You're right . I love it very much .
It must be old .
At least more than 100 years old .
Let's enter it !
I can't open the door .
It must be locked .
Let me ask the old woman in that reception office .
She can't answer you .
She must be deaf .
It must be a haunted house . Are you frightened ?
What ' s wrong with you , Mr . Polly ?
What ' s wrong ? I want a break from this horrible job .
Then , buy a bottle of soft drink .
Would you like to buy a bottle for me in the shop ?
It ' s a problem , because my boss is in that shop now .
Ok , I will go there myself .
Sorry , Mr . Polly .
It doesn ' t matter . Oh , God , I have only four dollars in my wallet . Is that possible for me to buy one ?
Where do you come from ?
I come from England .
What's the climate like in your country ?
It's mild , but it's not always pleasant . The weather's often cold in the North and windy in the East . It's often wet in the West and sometimes warm in the South .
Which seasons do you like best ?
Which job do you prefer , an accountant or a secretary ?
Neither , I prefer an active job .
Then how about a salesman ?
Good morning , sir . What can I do for you ?
I want to check in .
Have you made a reservation ?
No , I want a double room . By the way , is there any discount for children ?
Yes , children are half price .
excuse me ? How can I get to the nearest branch of the national bank ?
there ' s branch on new street . Walk up this street until you get to the first set of traffic lights . Then turn right at the traffic lights .
how far up the street are the traffic lights ?
not far . About 150 meters perhaps .
ok . So I turn right at the traffic lights . Then ?
then keep walking until you reach the war memorial . It ' s a big statue of a soldier . You can ' t miss it .
ok . Where do I go then ?
you ' ll see the national bank near the war memorial . It ' s a big building and you ' ll see a big sign on the front of the building .
Good morning , you look very tired .
Yes , I nearly didn't sleep last night .
Did you hold a party or something else yesterday ?
No , I just watched Supergirl , and it began too late in the night . I was too excited to get asleep after one o'clock .
I don't like this program , because there are too many constant arguments between the judges .
The contestants are different . These girls perform in free styles .
Do you have much time watching TV ?
I think less than 3 hours . This year I didn't watch any entertainment programs . Too many ads between the programs . I prefer listening to the radio .
I don't like ads , either . But ads could bring big profits to the TV station .
Hey , Rose , how are you feeling ?
Much better today .
Oh , Look at the baby . It ' s so beautiful . Is it a boy or a girl ?
It's a girl .
Can I hold it for a moment ?
Sure . She is a peaceful child .
Oh , how adorable ! She's got your eyes .
So they say .
When are you returning home ?
Well . The doctor said I have to remain here for at least two more days because I'm rather weak after childbirth .
Then , Mary . We need 10 more loose-leaf binders , five pounds of heavy duty white paper , and what else did I say ?
Two boxes of transparencies for the over-head machines .
Right . And I ' d like one of those new electric pencil sharpeners .
Listen to this . Mary got married .
Is she really ? I can ' t believe it !
Yes . Yesterday .
Good gracious . That ' s incredible !
She married Jerrod .
You ' re kidding .
She ' s going to live in Paris .
Did you take the job ?
No .
Why not ?
Good morning ! What's wrong with you ?
I have a bad headache .
How long have you been like this ?
For two days .
Do you have a fever ?
I ' m afraid so . Sometimes I feel hot and sometimes I feel cold .
When do you usually go to the movies ?
I usually go in my free time on the weekends . How about you ?
The movie theater is always so crowded on the weekends . I like to go to the movies during the week .
Hello , sir . Can I help you ?
What time is check-in ?
12:00 . You have to wait for a while .
OK .
Well , sir . Come with me . I will show you the waiting room . You must be tired . Have a short rest there . We will call you later .
Mr . Zhang , are you still there ?
Yes .
Can she call you back ? She is about to start a meeting .
I'm so angry . I feel like killing someone .
The flood will come on the heels of the heavy rain .
I wonder if the municipal government will take some preventive measures .
Welcome to IBA . What can I do for you today ?
I'd like to pay some money in using my card , please .
No problem . Could you let me have your card and the money to be deposited ?
Here it is . I usually use the machine , but there seems to be such a long queue at the moment .
Yes , it's the same every day during the lunchtime rush . We will be putting in a new ATM in the near future , though . That should help to ease the queues .
I'll look forward to that , I can't stand queuing .
I know what you mean . How much would you like to deposit with us today ?
1,000 RIB , it should all be there .
That's correct , 1,000 RIB . I'll need your personal code to deposit this . Could you enter it on this key pad , please ?
OK , done . When will it show in my account ? Not for withdrawal , I mean just registered .
It will show in your account straight away . Here's your card back and could you please sign the slip here ?
I ' m so excited , mother . Oh , a new baby !
My first grandchild .
And my first nephew . He looks a lot like you , mum . He does .
Do you think so ? Well , I guess . He does look a lot like me . Oh , he ' s got Richard ' s eyes though .
Yes , he does have Richard ' s eyes . The baby even looks like you than Richard does .
Well , children usually resemble their parents .
It ' s true . Michelle is a lot like Henry in so many ways . And she is shy with new people just like he is .
You often like comparing children with their parents .
What was that ?
Oh no . I broke your vase accidentally .
How did it happen ?
I bumped it by accident , but I didn't mean to do it .
It was my favorite .
I feel miserable . Can I give you money for it ?
Maybe I shouldn't have put it here . Someone was bound to bump it eventually .
You're acting weird tonight .
I'm just in the mood to act goofy .
What brought this on ?
Has Mien sold his house yet ?
Yes , he has . He sold it last week .
Has he moved to his new house yet ?
No , not yet . He's still here . He's going to move tomorrow .
When ? Tomorrow morning ?
No . Tomorrow afternoon . I'll miss him . He has always been a good neighbour .
He's a very nice person . We will all miss him .
When will the new people move into this house ?
I think that they will move in the day after tomorrow .
Will you see Mien today , Janey ?
Yes , I will .
Please give him my regards . Poor Mien ! He didn't want to leave this house .
Say , Anna , what are you doing tonight ? Would you like to go out ?
Oh , sorry , I can't . I'm going to work late tonight . I have to finish this report .
Well , how about tomorrow night ? Are you doing anything then ?
No , I'm not . What are you planning to do ?
I'm going to see a musical . Would you like to come ?
Sure , I'd love to ! But let me pay for the tickets this time . It's my turn .
What part did you get in the play this time ?
I got a character part -- some old lady who shows up in a few scenes .
I wish I had a character part . Those are my favorite .
Are you kidding ? You got the leading role .
I know , but I've done that so Ay times . It's getting old . The leading guy is always the same macho A .
I would trade you if I could but I don't think I'd be a very convincing macho A .
Next time . You are going to love your part . I've seen the script .
My son is alway complaining that I dump on him . He was very rude and told me to mind my own business . I cannot put up with that .
What does his dad say ?
Mr . Smith just called me back .
So ?
We got the contract !
Would you like to have dinner with me tonight ?
Oh , that sounds great !
I ' ll pick you up at ... say , 7,30 ?
Yes , that would be perfect .
See you tonight then .
Hi . My minibar is empty .
You already finished off everything , sir ?
I finished off everything .
Would you like anything in particular ?
The Perrier and the Jim Beam . Let me have three more of each .
Beam and Perrier . Anything else , sir ?
I really loved the apples in my room . Bring me a few more , please .
Sure thing . Might there by anything else ?
Oh , yes , speaking of fruit , bring me some grape juice , too .
Taylor , you're looking a little pale . Are you sure you want to hand out nametags ?
Do I have a choice ? You said the guy who was supposed to do it didn't show .
True . Keep up the good work . Hello , welcome to the reunion of the Class of ' 93 .
Just come over here , sir . First you need to sign in and get your photo nametag .
And don't forget to put in an order for your reunion memory book .
OK . Here's the final drawing ! It's for the trip !
And the winner is ... Vivian , again ! I don't believe it !
Our red underwear didn't do any good at all !
Well , there are still some consolation prizes . We can go up to the front and pick them up .
So , what did you win ?
A lousy desk lamp . And you ?
A bar of soap !
Look at Vivian ! She thinks she's the cat's meow !
Give me some glasses please , Jane .
Which glasses ? These glasses .
No , not those . The ones on the shelf .
These ?
Yes , please .
Here you are .
There are so many environment problems in the world today . Do you think we can really solve them all or will destroy the world ?
I hope that world leaders can get together and agree on a plan of action , but I doubt it ' ll happen before it ' s too late .
We need to solve the problem of air pollution before we destroy the atmosphere . There ' s lots of clean , modern technology , but companies in developed countries say it ' s expensive . Developing countries
Everyone is looking at the issue in the short term , rather than the long term . It ' s the same with the destruction of the rainforests . Countries and companies just want the wood . They ' re not thinking a
In other parts of the world , especially in Africa , there is a problem with desertification . Climate change and over-farming are causing farmland to turn into desert . In means that people cannot grow e
It also means that people sometimes fight over the farmland that remains . Damaging the environment actually leads to conflict between people .
Have you ever thought about joining an organization committed to protecting the environment ? You could get involved with projects to improve the environment .
Peter , which club do you want to join ?
I haven't decided yet . What about you , Andy ?
I am a member of the basketball club . Do you want to join us ?
But I don't know how to play basketball .
Thank you for agreeing to come in and meet with us today .
Thank you for inviting me .
I can see from your resume you were in charge of sales for Corporate World Unlimited from 1997 to 1999 . Can you please tell me about your responsibilities ?
Yes . I was in charge of profit and loss for the northwest region of Canada . As a manager , I was directly responsible for a 50 % increase in sales over a four-month period .
What , do you believe , are some of the key attributes that helped you to achieve such an outstanding increase in sales ?
What do you think of being a secretary ?
I'm not at all keen on that sort of job . It makes me crazy .
How come ?
So , have you seen all three The Lord of the Rings movies ?
Yes , but I didn't really like the third one at all .
That's the Return of the King , right ?
Yeah . Even though the customs were brilliant , I didn't think it was as good as the first two . What did you think ?
I thought the special effects were amazing , but I got a bit confused . The plot was too complicated for me .
Did you read the books before you watched the movies ?
No . did you ?
Yes , I've read them many times . I think it's much easier to follow for people who were already familiar with all the characters .
Yes , trying to keep track of all the characters was quite confusing for me .
I also think that it was much better in the theatre than at home .
Most movies are . Another problem for me was the film was dubbed in German with English subtitles .
That happens a lot in non-English speaking countries .
I heard that The Return of the King was nominated for 11 Oscars .
Hi , can I assist you in any way ?
Oh , thank you . Yes , please . What I need is to handle some domestic affairs .
Oh , I see . In what area ?
Well , I need a Deposit Certification to handle this .
Yes , we have this service . Have you got a deposit certificate and your passport ? I'm sorry to ask you , but your passport is very important .
Yes , yes . Here it is . By the way , is there a handling fee ?
Tell me about your brother and sister , Sue .
Well , my sister is a lawyer .
Really ? Does she live here in Seattle ?
Yes , she does . But she's working in Washington , D . C . , right now . Her job is top secret .
Wow ! ! And what does your brother do ?
He's a painter . He's working in Argentina this month . He has an exhibition there .
Tom's dating your sister .
Excuse me , Sir , you are not supposed to smoke here .
I beg your pardon .
Your seat is in the non-smoking section , so please refrain from smoking .
Oh , I see , since I'm a heavy smoker . May I change my seat ?
Then I'll try to find a seat in the smoking section . One moment . please . Thank you for waiting . I found a seat in the smoking section for you .
can I use your laptop for a while ?
sure , go ahead .
oh , isn't your computer Wi-Fi capable ?
yes , it is . You want go online ? there are no wi-fi hotspots around .
oh my , no internet access is killing me .
can't you wait till you get home ? then you can surf the internet using the broadband , wireless connection or whatever you like .
no , I'm not feeling myself . I just want to check my emails , visit my favorite websites and chat with my friends .
now I see , you must be suffering from discomgoogolation .
what does that mean ? there's nothing wrong with me .
well , the term " discomgoogolation " comes from " discombobulate " and " google " . Because floods of information are just a mouse click away , net users are very likely to become addicted to the web .
that's alright . I just can't bear losing track of all the latest information . It almost drives me crazy .
I called about that ad we saw in the paper .
For the bank manager ?
That ' s the one .
What happened ?
You were right , it was from a headhunter . He wouldn't tell me anything without a signed contract .
Well , no surprise there .
No ! Not at all . But I did find out they have more than one position with different clients , so at least one would probably work out .
Great , so are you going to sign a contract with them ?
I ' m going there tomorrow .
Great ! Good luck .
And I think I'll look in on a few other Employment Agencies while I ' m downtown , to see what they have .
Smith is always careless , it is his Achilles ' s heel .
He would get very angry if anyone criticized him .
He will burn his fingers .
I am confused by what he said .
Why do you say that ?
I don ' t know what he wants to do . Does he want help me or just scold me ?
You like Titanic ? That movie is so cheesy .
It's not cheesy ! It's romantic . When it first came out , I saw it in the theaters five times in one week .
Really ? Well the special effects might have been good in 1997 , but when you watch it today they make the film seem really cheesy .
Alright , maybe it's a little bit cheesy . But come on , isn't it fun to go to a cheap flick once in a while ?
Actually , I have to admit that you're right . I like some pretty cheesy movies too . I love Arnold Schwarzenegger action flicks , especially " Terminator . "
Haha , that's definitely a cheesy movie too . Did you watch it over and over again ?
Mrs . Phoebe , let's talk about the delivery arrangement for our goods .
Sure . What's your date of delivery ?
I informed my company and was told that the first five thousand by the end of this month .
What about the balance of the order ? Can they also arrive at our company quickly ?
We can deliver the balance at the price already quoted in 10 days .
Can you deliver them earlier ?
I am afraid we can not do that . Would you be willing to sign an annual contract on the basis we discussed ?
Possibly , subject to quality and delivery guarantees .
Of course . Well , in that case we could offer a 5 % discount for a confirmed monthly order for the next 12 months .
I was looking forward to something a bit more substantial . As you know , we have long-time cooperation .
I'm afraid that's as far as we could go . We'd already be stretching ourselves to the limit .
I want to buy a wallet .
Here are all the wallets with various designs . How about this one ? It is quite fashionable .
May I pick it up ?
Of course .
Do you have one of better quality ?
This one is much better , but it is also much more expensive .
There is no problem about the price . How much is it ?
Two hundred and thirty-five yuan .
Hello .
Hi .
How are you ?
I'm good . How are you ?
Good . Do you speak English ?
A little . Are you American ?
Yes .
Where are you from ?
I'm from California .
Nice to meet you .
How was your trip to Brazil ? Did you learn anything ?
I had no idea how seriously that country takes soccer !
Tell me about it .
Okay . In the middle of their streets there are parks , big soccer fields as far as you can see .
Really ?
That's not all . They use them ! Every night men , women , children all out there till 3 and 4 a . m .
Are you serious ?
Oh , please ! Don't be so old-fashioned ! It's totally safe .
I sure hope you didn't trust anyone with your credit card number .
All I did so far was make a bid on the Buddha . It was easy !
Easy ? Ha ! ! It was easy for them to cheat you ! !
So , what's on the menu for dinner tonight ?
You tell me .
You're not going to make anything to eat ?
You never cook . I always do .
I think you're a better cook than I am .
Oh please , you need to cook tonight .
So you're telling me that you want me to make dinner ?
It was a hard day . Can you just do this for me tonight ?
I'll cook dinner , don't worry .
I'm going to go rest for a little bit .
I'll come wake you when it's ready , okay ?
He ' s got laid off again . I do feel sorry for him .
Do you really ?
What do you mean ?
I think it might be a good idea to work as a guide .
Where do you intend to go ?
Three Gorges of the Yangtze River .
My name is Steven Smith and I'm calling to cancel my plane ticket .
When was your reservation ?
It ' s 7 p . m . today .
Would you mind telling me the reason ?
I need to continue to deal with my business . I haven ' t finished it yet .
Oh , I see . Would you like me to reschedule you for another time ?
No . Thank you .
But you have to pay the fee for refund .
How are your stocks doing , Jim ?
Oh , all right . I lost a bunch of money in the last two years , but this year has been pretty good .
Yeah , I lost money investing in the internet too .
Just goes to show that you should buy companies not ideas .
I changed my strategy around too . I invest in good companies now .
Yeah , me too . Did you hear about Ted ?
No . What happened ?
He lost his kids ' college money by trading .
It's a lovely day , isn't it ?
Yes , the weather sure is nice today .
I love it when the weather is like this . Why don't we sit down outside and have our lunch ?
That sounds like a good idea . The sky is clear , the sun is shining and there's a nice cool breeze , so it is not too hot .
I really miss the change of seasons like we have in Colorado . but I must admit , this sure is a nice spring day .
Hey , this spot in the shade looks really comfortable .
Okay . Hey , is that a dark cloud over there ? Do you think it will rain after all ?
I don't think so . I say the weather report last night , and it said the weather should be fine all day .
I've just got a new printer . How often do I need to replace the print heads ?
Well , under normal conditions each head lasts about 5 000 copies or so . It depends on the user , but about once a month is average .
So if I don't print out very much , it could last a lot longer ?
How long have you been in Taiwan ?
About 3 years , so I came here 2000 .
So , where did you grow up ?
Providence , Rhode Island . do you know it ?
I am not sure , where exactly is it ?
Well , not so far from New York . So what about you ? Did you grow up here ?
Doctor , my child is nine years old , and I recently found that he was constantly telling lies about how he is doing at school .
Is he doing very well at school ?
He is doing OK , but he pretends he is doing much better by telling lies .
What's his problem ?
This may be complicated . But I think he may need to build up his self-esteem .
How can his he do that ?
How are you doing ? Pretty good , I imagine ?
Actually not so good . That's why we made a special trip to see you .
OK , let me hear it . I'd be glad to help if I can .
Good . I want to discuss with you the mode of payment for the construction of the power plant under negotiation .
Well , I trust that your presence will hasten the settlement of payment terms .
I would like to explain to you our financial position . The manufacture of machinery and its accessories and parts will consume both time and money . It takes five years to manufacture the machinery and we will have to advance the cost for the main machines to be produced , and besides this there are large sums to be paid to our subcontractors for the manufacture of the accessories and parts .
But for an enterprise of your size , an order from us will certainly not embarrass you financially .
Well , in fact , it is beyond our financial capability .
In what way can we solve the problem ?
Have you considered the possibility of a buyer's credit ?
Yes . But the sum is large , it must be provided by a group of banks .
So , we propose your company apply to Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation for a long-term loan . Six months before each shipment , you through Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation open , in our favour , an irrevocable , dividable L / C which is to remain valid for two months .
I'm going to see the doctor this weekend .
What's your trouble ?
I think I need a thorough check-up .
Ange , can your dog do any tricks yet ?
Oh , yeah ! He can sit down , roll over , and even play dead .
Really ? Does he chase balls ?
Yup . Hey , do you want to see a picture ? See , he's eating lunch .
This can't be the same dog . He's so clean , he shines .
See , he's wagging his tail .
Good , morning ! Can I help you ?
Good morning . Could you tell me the times of trains to London , please ?
Yes . there are trains at 7:59 , 9:18 , 10:32 and 11:55
What time does the 7:59 get to London ?
At 9:36 . And the 9:18 gets to London at 9:55 , the 10:32 at 11:09 .
What about coming back ? I'd like to come back about 7 p . m .
There's one at 19:00 and the next is at 19:40 .
Mmm , how much is it ?
Single or return ?
Return , please .
If you get on before 4 p . m . or after 6 p . m . there is saver return which is $ 9 . 45 , an ordinary return is $ 16 . 45 .
It's very nice of you to invite me .
I'm very glad you could come , Mr . Liu . Will you take a seat at the head of the table ? It's an informal dinner , please don't stand on ceremony ... Mr . Liu , would you like to have some chicken ?
Thank you . This is my first time to come to a Chinese restaurant . Could you tell me the different features of Chinese food ?
Generally speaking , Cantonese food is a bit light ; Shanghai food is rather oily ; and Hunan dishes are very spicy , having a strong and hot taste .
Chinese dishes are exquisitely prepared , delicious , and very palatable . They are very good in colour , flavour , and taste .
Mr . Liu , would you care for another helping ?
No more , thank you . I'm quite full .
Did you enjoy the meal ?
It's the most delicious dinner I've had for a long time . It's such a rich dinner .
I'm so glad you like it .
Are you going to vote tomorrow ?
I sure am . How about you ?
I am .
Do you know where your polling place is ?
My polling place is up the street at the park .
Oh , really ?
Where ' s yours at ?
I ' m not sure .
You should know that already .
I didn ' t receive my polling place in the mail .
You do know that you can look online , right ?
Look at these clothes designed by top fashion designer like Versacci , Calvin Klein , and Vivienne Westwood . What do you think of them ?
Well , they look lovely , but they ' re not very practical . I mean , would you wear that dress to the office or walking down the street ?
I know what you mean . People would stare at you in amazement if you wore something like that in an everyday situation . I suppose only extravagant rich people wear them at cocktail parties .
Maybe . I ' m not sure why they have fashion shows like this . Hardly anyone will buy those clothes . The clothes you see are nothing like the ones that ordinary people wear . It seems like a waste of money .
I think that the designers hold these fashion shows for a few reasons . First , it ' s just like a big party . They can meet each other and network . The other thing is that it is great advertising . All the journalists and photographers are there . Thirdly , it give them a chance to show what they would like to see people wearing .
You meant it ' s an expression of their fantasies ?
Yes . I think the designers are saying that these clothes are what they would like to see people wear if those people weren ' t concerned with what other people might think . In a way , the designers are saying ' don ' t worry about what others think . Wear what you like ! ' .
Very philosophical . I think they design these clothes more for publicity . They try to see who can be the most extreme and outrageous , but still stylish .
Your knowledge of English is really surprising .
Oh , it's nothing to speak of .
No , seriously . I'm impressed .
Hello , Bill . May I borrow your pen ?
Sure , which one ? The red one or the blue one ?
The blue one , please .
Do you think you can fix my computer ?
I would like to make a reservation for tomorrow .
I'm sorry but we are fully booked .
Well , how about the 4th ?
That's fine , but we have only a single room , is that OK ?
My accountant thinks she can save me lots of money on my taxes this year .
Good morning . Elly company .
Good morning . Could I speak to someone in the sales department , please ?
Hold on , please .
O . K . So , where do you think we can save more money ?
Well , we could eat in more . That $ 300 for entertainment is mostly going to restaurants .
Yeah , that ' s a good idea , and you like to cook . What about the books ?
No , I need my books .
Come on , if we save more money we can retire earlier , and you ' ll actually have time to read all those books you buy .
Well , what about the $ 50 you spent on a shirt ? You could ' Ve gotten something for less .
O . K . Let ' s compromise , if you agree to only spend $ 75 on books , I ' ll agree to only spend $ 40 for my next shirt .
Who is that guy ?
It's Clive of course . Where did you come from ? Every girl knows Clive !
Really ? He is my type .
He is everybody's type .
What position does he play ?
Shooting guard . The same as Michael Jordan !
Oh , I love Michael Jordan . He fills people's lives with great excitement .
Used to . But now he is too old to play in a fierce game like this . But Kobe is the upcoming superstar now .
Kobe is a good player but I heard he is a womanizer .
That is not true . They are just jealous of him !
Jordan is a legend , anyway . An idol that no one can replace . I think Clive can make a good professional basketball player . He is not just about muscles he also plays smart .
You know what , he is also an outstanding football player . He is surely to be a star of tomorrow .
By the way , do you know if he has a girl friend ?
You are so not here ! His girlfriend is one of the cheer leaders .
My Goodness ! What a busy line so early in the morning ! Hello .
Ruth ? Basil .
Hi , Basil .
Want a ride to the office ?
Yes , by all means . I was just about to leave .
Hold on . Just 5 minutes .
I'll wait on the sidewalk . It's very kind of you .
It's my pleasure . See you .
Hi , Basil .
Hi , Ruth . Hop in .
Do you mind if I take some notes while we drive ?
Of course I don't mind . For your report ?
Yes , I finally have an inspiration .
I ' d like to open a current account .
Certainly . May I see your social security and your ID Please .
Here your are . I wonder how much interest can I earn for my current account .
Oh . Current account don ' t pay our interest .
Why is that ?
It ' s primarily design for business transactions . That is write checks to pay the bills , buying things and sending money . We won ' t expect a large amount of deposit in current account .
When's your birthday ?
Hi , Michelle . Do you need to use the photocopier ?
Oh , hi Jeremy . No please , go ahead . So how are you , Jeremy ? I was talking to Linda about you only last week .
Oh , I'm fine , thanks . I'm super busy with work actually . Did you hear about the Lawson contract ?
No , tell me more .
Well , I was discussing the contract with Bill and he said that they met the head of Lawsons last week .
And .
And hopefully they are going to confirm the deal on Wednesday , fingers crossed .
That's great news , Jeremy . Congratulations ! Anyway , I must get back , but give my regards to your wife Monica .
I'm leaving now , mum .
Take care , sonny !
I will . Bye - bye !
I'm not satisfied with it .
Why not ? What's wrong with it ?
Sometimes it goes fast . And sometimes it goes slow . And the alarm doesn'twork , either .
Would you like another one ?
No . Can I have my money back ?
Hmm ... have you got a receipt ?
A receipt ?
Yes . I must see your receipt . You can't have your money back without receipt .
Excuse me , please show me that business suit , the dark one .
OK .
May I try it on ?
IBA , Client Services Department . Shelley speaking , how can I help ?
Client Services ? Oh , hello . I need your help .
Certainly , that's what we're here for . What can I help you with ?
I'm a tourist in this city and unfortunately I've lost my card !
Calm down , Sir . Is that an IBA Debit or Credit Card ?
Credit Card . The International Credit Card , I can't find it anywhere .
Just calm down , Sir . OK , when do you think you lost it ?
I'm not 100 % sure , around an hour ago I guess . I had it in the hotel lobby bar ; I used it to charge something to my room . I obviously didn't pick it up again .
That's fine , Sir . Let me just take some details FRCM you and we can help you .
Taxi !
Where would you like to go ?
Please rush me to the railway station
Get in and close the door .
Can you speed up a bit ?
Sorry . The road is too crowded .
But I have no time to lose .
But I can't help it .
Can you drop me off here ?
May I have a look at that vase , please ?
Of course . It's the best one I have here---and it's only 300 yuan .
Oh , it's really nice , but to tell the truth , that's far too expensive .
It's Sunday today .
Yes , I know .
I think we should have a house cleaning today . What's your opinion ?
Oh , no . We just did it last week .
Come on . What do you want to do ? Washing clothes or cleaning the house ?
I'd rather wash the clothes .
Okay . Here is the laundry .
Oh , My God ! So much !
What do you say we stop in at that Burger King over there and grab a bite ?
Forget it ! If you think I ' d ever set foot that inferior restaurant again , you gotta be nuts . Last time I ate that food , almost vomited . The service in there is terrible . It was the first time I ever stiffed a waiter
Yeah , not seeing a single person anywhere informed me . Hey ! How about that one over there ?
Oh , give me a break ! That place is too lavish for us .
Easy . It ' s on me .
Quite a few people are laid off these days .
Yeah . It is not easy for them to find another job .
University graduates have difficulty finding a job too . There seems to be more and more competition in the job market
It is strange that some people are quitting their jobs in order to find a better one . What do you think ? Do you want to quit your job ?
Mom , you know that Andrea and I sometimes worry about you .
Really ? Why would you worry about me ? I ' m just fine .
You ' re almost 70 years old , Mom ! Don ' t you think it would be better for you if you moved in with us ?
No way ! I like my apartment , and I like to be independent .
Do you ever get lonely living alone ?
Can I help you , sir ?
Yes , I want to book a plane ticket from Beijing to Shanghai .
OK . Which day do you want to book ?
The day after tomorrow .
Which flight do you want ?
I'd prefer a morning flight .
What about Flight 516 ?
Book it for me , please . How much should I pay ?
1 500 yuan . How will you pay for this , sir ?
Credit card .
OK . Here's your ticket .
Hello , could I speak to Allison , please ?
I'm sorry ; he's out at the moment .
When do you expect him back ?
I think he'll be back in about an hour at least .
Well , may I leave a message ?
Yes , of course .
Would you please ask him to call Chris when he gets back ?
Ok . Does he know your number ?
I'm afraid he doesn't . My mobile is 139- 2477 - 4026 .
Good morning golf aficionados ! My name is Rick Fields , and you guessed it , I am here with my main man , Bob Copeland .
Thank you , Rick ! As you can see , ladies and gentleman , we are here in beautiful Pebble Beach where the top golfers in the world are trying to win the grand prize of one million dollars !
Whoa , that ' s a lot of cash ! Let ' s go to the course and see how Tiger Woods is doing .
All right , we are here at the eighth hole . It ' s a par four , and has some very difficult hazards which many golfers find difficult to avoid . Although , I did see Jack Nicklaus hit a hole in one on this very same hole !
Tiger Woods is about to tee off , and let ' s see if he has the same luck as Jack . Tiger is asking his caddie for his driver and , he seems to be very nervous .
Oh no ! Not a good swing at all ! It ' s definitely not his day today . On the seventh hole he got a bogey and before that he barely made par . He will definitely not get a birdie on this shot .
It seems that his ball has flown somewhere deep in the trees . He is having a hard time finding it and even his caddie has climbed a tree to try and spot it .
Well , we've settled everything in connection with this transaction except the question of the mode of payment .
Because this order is a comparatively big one , we would like to pay by time L / C , say , 60 days L / C .
Payment by sight L / C is quite usual in international trade , and as a rule , we only accept payment by sight L / C .
But we have only moderate mean at hand . If you can do us a special favor this time and allow us to delay payment , we'd really appreciate it .
Accepting time L / C is unusual and I've never done it before , but we could consider your request . I'll phone our company to see what they say .
Thank you for your consideration . When will you let me know your answer ?
Our neighbour ' s tape recorder is so loud that it annoys us to death . I ' Ve made up my mind to cut the electricity off .
What ? That would be to cut off your nose to spite your face .
Then what shall I do ?
Hello , welcome to prise star hotel . How may I do for you ?
Hi , yes , I have a reservation . My secretary called and booked a room a couple of weeks ago , the reservation should be for a double bed , none smoking room .
And what name of reservation made under ?
It should be under Steve Johnson .
Mmm , let me see , it seems there is no Johnson listed for a room for tonight , is there any other name that you reservation list under ?
No , here is the confirmation number , would that help ? It is 898007 , I had the room booked with a visa cord card .
It's late . It ' s high time I left . Thank you for a most wonderful evening .
Don't mention it .
Good night then !
Who is the next one ?
It's Peter's turn .
Give the mike to him .
OK .
Be quiet . He is singing .
I thought he only liked to listen !
So did I .
He has a really good voice !
I'd like to reserve a table for three at 6:30 this evening .
Let me check . Hold on , please ... Yes , that's fine . Smoking or nonsmoking area ?
Nonsmoking , please .
All right . May I have your name ?
My surname is Gao .
Some people are easily flimflammed .
Maybe they are still wet behind ears .
They are blind with bucks . Blind people are more easily conned , fo course .
How much does it cost to hire a motorbike ?
For 3 days $ 300 , for 7 days $ 600 .
Good . I think I'll hire one for 7 days .
Look out ! Your tea water is running over .
Oh , would you please turn off the fire ? My hands are sticky with the dough .
Sure .
My wife is sick , so I have to cancel a reservation I made .
If you'll just give me your name , phone , and date of visit , I can cancel your reservation .
I'm Rudy Randolph at 818-555-1234 , April ninth to the fifteenth .
Mr . Randolph . Okay , one second , sir , and there you go . Your reservation is now cancelled .
I wish everything in life was so simple . Thank you .
Oh , no ! I ' Ve been assigned to work with Jerry for our group project .
Any plans tonight ?
Not really , do you ?
Well , I am wondering if we took a hang-out for a drink or something . You know , I just came back from a really tough interview . I was quite nervous during the interview . I really want to have the job . Right now , I am still a little on the edge . I am not sure if I could convince them during the interview .
Take it easy . It is all over now . How was it going , anyway ?
I don ' t know . I think I did well in the paper exams . I was prepared to answer a lot of questions , but they didn't ask those as I expected . To my surprise , the manager tried to talk about the Chinese poesy with me .
That's strange . But probably , it is the new interview technique they call it ' Getting to know you more personally ' . What about your answers ?
Are you alright , child ?
Hey , I still know my name .
What did the nurse say ?
She said I have a fever but nothing major .
In that case , you should go home and get plenty of rest .
What if this small fever turns into a big fever ?
Let's do something different today .
Like how ?
I would like you to give me a different hair style .
What did you have in mind ?
Give me a short haircut .
Do you know how short you want your hair to be ?
I want you to cut it to a few inches long .
That's pretty short . Are you sure about this ?
I've had this idea for some time now .
I'm going to do it , but you have to be sure you really want me to .
This is what I want .
What would you like for your main course ?
Steak , please .
How would you like your steak ? Rare , medium-rare or well-done ?
I hear you ' re taking a music class . I didn ' t know you ' re interested in it .
Oh , I ' m not . I ' Ve never had a music class before .
In my opinion , you ' ll make it .
You ' re having me on again .
I ' d like to send this parcel to Australia .
Certainly . Could you put it on the scales , so I can check the weight ?
Sure . It ' s not very heavy .
That ' s 850 grams . The coasts depends on how you would like to send it .
I see . What are the options ? I suppose airmail is faster and more expensive than surface mail .
That ' s right . Sending it by airmail will cost twelve dollars and sending it by surface mail will cost eight dollars .
How long will it take to get there ?
Airmail should take four or five days and surface mail should take about two weeks .
It that case , I ' ll send it by airmail . I ' d like to send it as a registered parcel .
No problem . That ' s one dollar extra .
Thanks very much . There ' s thirteen dollars .
Oh . Henry . I haven't seen you in ages . Come in . Let me take your coat . How are you getting along ?
Very well , thank you .
Please take a seat . Everything will be ready in a minute .
Here you go . We have your cocktail and there're salad . fried chicken , French fries and vanilla ice cream for dessert . Eat the chicken while it's hot . It tastes better .
Wow ! You're right . Everything is absolutely delicious . Please pass the pepper .
Here you are . Taste the French fries .
They're soft .
Would you like some more ?
No more . Thank you .
Here's to our friendship and health !
How can I live without Helen ?
I can't believe the boss was absent from today's meeting .
Can I help you , sir ?
Yes . Fill it up , please .
OK . What kind of gas do you want ?
I don't really know . I have just bought this new car . And it's the first time I've gotten gas for it .
We have regular , super , and premium gasoline . This is a new car , so I'd recommend premium .
Premium , please . Thanks . Please fill it up .
All right , sir . You will park at refueling 4 .
OK , thanks .
Your car's ready .
Good . How much does it come to ?
Ten gallons of premium . That's $ 18 . 56 , please .
OK . Here you are .
Did you see who the suspect was ?
I got a perfect look at the suspect .
Would you be able to pick him out of a line-up ?
That'll be easy .
Please take a careful look at these five men .
Okay .
Is the suspect in this line ?
I see him .
Which number is he ?
The suspect is number four .
Your cooperation is very much appreciated .
Is this the right counter to check in for this flight ?
Yes , it is . Please put your luggage on the scale .
Your luggage is overweight . The free allowance for luggage is 20 kilos .
Oh , can I keep this little suitcase as hand-luggage ?
OK , in this way it's just below the limit .
Here's your ticket and your boarding card .
I got the job you recommended me for last week .
That's great ! Congratulations .
I really don't know how I can thank you enough .
Oh , it's my pleasure . After all , you are very qualified for the position .
Thank you very much indeed . You helped me rebuild my self-confidence .
Don't mention it . You ' re always been good . What do you say we go out to celebrate ?
I heard you were teaching English over there . Tell me about it . Did you like it ?
Oh , yes , it was very interesting .
What were the schools like ?
Oh , I didn't actually teach in the schools . I taught after school . I taught in English institutes .
But you taught children , yes ?
Yes . That's right . But children in Taiwan are very different from children in America . At least as far as studying is concerned . Many children in Taiwan go to special institutes after school .
They actually study after school ?
That's right . After their school day is over , they go to a special institute to study math or English . They are very serious about learning over there .
Hmm . That sounds pretty oppressive for the kids . Don't they ever relax ?
Of course they do . You know , Eliza , before I went over there I thought the same thing . I thought that maybe kids in Taiwan study too much . But now that I've worked there , and taught them , I feel it is a good thing . Their parents are very concerned about their education . More than American parents are . And that is good . American kids don't study enough .
Asian cultures value learning very much . I know that .
So it was interesting for me to see parents very concerned about education . They would come to me after the class and ask how their son or daughter was doing . I don't think that's a bad thing . I think it's a good thing . In America , too many parents don't pay attention .
But aren't the kids tired out ? I mean , they go to school all day , and then they go to school in the evening too .
As an English teacher , I tried to make the lessons as fun as possible . I tried to have a good time with my classes . The students often enjoyed it . And if the students enjoyed it , they learned more . So it was a good experience .
Are the kids in Taiwan very obedient ?
That's a stereotype we Americans have . We think that Asian kids are very obedient and quiet . But it's not true . There are plenty of naughty kids too .
Hmm . I know you taught in Costa Rica also . Which did you like better--Costa Rica or Taiwan ?
What is your most preferred training method ?
Well , I prefer active rather than passive training . For example , I like the training offered by a financial software company from which we bought the newest updated virgin . They sent the programmers to demonstrate how to do and then ask us to practice . All employees receiving this training were in the same meeting room , so we could communicate with each other . We had a lot of fun learning together . It helps to build up the work relation among colleagues .
Well , that is also very efficient , right ?
Of course , it is much better than just giving us some reading materials or information via the internet .
In my country , we go to school from 8 o'clock in the morning until five in the afternoon .
Five days a week , too ?
Actually , five and a half . On Saturday , we have classes only in the morning .
Gosh !
That's too much for us really .
Where are you going now ?
I'm going to try to find out where the school is located .
When do you start school ?
I'm going to register right now .
Hi , I am afraid that the fax machine in my room won ' t be working till tomorrow . A technician has just come and checked it . He will bring me a new one tomorrow . It seems there is a big problem with mine and it will take some days for repairing . Can I use the one in your office ?
Of course you can . I am sure this one works very well . I just sent dozens of pages . How many pages are you sending ? Are you familiar with my fax machine ?
Yes , I think you have the same model as I have . Does your fax machine print out immediately a transmission protocol ?
What do we need for the barbecue ?
Well , I ' Ve bought a lot of meat . I ' Ve got pork chops , small steaks , chicken wings , and plenty of hot sausages and hamburger patties .
I can ' t wait to start cooking ! I ' Ve bought the grill and charcoal . Do you have enough plates and utensils ?
I think so . I bought some paper plates and cups for people to use . It will save on the washing up !
And if people drop them , they won ' t break . We ' ll need to buy some buns to make hot dogs and hamburgers .
They sell them at the shop around the corner . We can go and get some in a few minutes .
I brought some cheese to make cheeseburgers and some onions for the hot dogs . We ' ll need some tomato ketchup and some barbecue sauce .
I have the sauce , but remind me to get some ketchup at the shop .
How long does it take to cook meat on a barbecue ?
It only takes a few minutes . Some people like their meat well done . Others like it rare . The great thing about a barbecue is that everyone can choose how they want their meat cooked .
They can cook it themselves to make sure it ' s exactly how they like it .
Look , it's all water over the dam now . Let's leave it behind us .
Yeah , I know , but it's too hard to do .
Our eyes should look into the future . We could not live in the past .
Only sometimes when I think about it , I feel very sad .
What are my choices for lunch ?
We have beef with rice and fish with noodles . Which would you like ?
Fish with noodles , please .
Would you care for coffee or tea ?
Hello , is this People's Theater ?
Yes , it is . May I help you ?
Yes , are advance tickets for ' Nut croakers ' still available ?
What date , sir ?
October 16th .
Let me see . Yes , we still have some tickets left . Which performance ?
7:30 p . m . performance , please .
OK , we have tickets at 100 yuan and 50 yuan .
I'd like to reserve two seats at 100 yuan , please .
All right . May I have you name , please ?
Du Kun .
When would you like to collect the tickets ?
Tomorrow .
We can hold them until one day before the show .
How do we cancel , just in case ?
Just telephone us , and let us know in advance . We don't charge for cancellation .
All right , thank you very much . Good bye .
Tom , it's time for you to take a shower .
Mom , I don't want to bathe today .
Why ? You can't be always so lazy .
Mom , I'm tired . I feel sleepy . I want to go to bed right now .
Alright . But you promise this is the last time .
Chris , where are you going ?
I'm going to the store .
Really ? I need to go to the store too .
Would you like to come with me ?
Yeah , let's go together .
Would you like to go now or later ?
Now .
What ?
Now would be better .
OK , let's go .
Should we walk ?
Fancy seeing you here .  Lily .
Yeah . What a surprise !
How's everything going ?
The stepmother was very wicked . She couldn't stand a happy smile on the boy's face .
And ?
And she did her best to pull out the thorn in her flesh and the boy lost whatever made him happy .
Could I ask you for a favor ? My laser printer is out of ink and I need to print out something urgent . If you don ' t mind , I would like to send you these files . Could you then print these for me ?
Sure , just send me through internal mail .
Thanks , Vivian .
it ' s so great to be here ! I ' m so excited to help you and my daughter with your new home !
we ' re glad that you ' re here . Would you like a tour of the house ?
that ' d be great , but could I have a cup of tea first ?
sure , I ' ll just go put the kettle on . Why don ' t you have a seat on the sofa and I ' ll go take care of things in the kitchen .
that would be lovely , thanks .
do you take milk or sugar with your tea ?
I ' ll take a little milk , but no sugar , please . Make sure you let the tea steep a few minutes before you take the tea bag out of the cup .
ok . What do you think about our living room ?
well , I do like the mantelpiece and the coffee table , but I don ' t really care for curtains . Did you get them at a yard sale ? They look ancient .
my parents gave them to us as a house warming gift .
oh dear . Well , I suppose they will do for now . do you ever dust in here ? It seems a bit dusty in here .
your daughter usually does the dusting , and I do the vacuuming .
I see . Well , I can help with the chores while I ' m here . You two could probably use my help .
So can we play PlayStation later ?
Sure , if you're done !
All my games are so lame , Mom . When can I get a new one ?
Well , listen , Honey , you've been a big help lately ...
Right on . I'm gonna get a new game !
If you take out the garbage and do the dishes , I'll think about it .
I knew there would be a catch !
Nothing in life is free , Son .
Have you read the new rules about using cell phone at work ?
Yes , not bad . Like turn your cell phone ringer off and find a private place to make calls which it ' s showing your respect to your co-workers .
Well , but for this one , don ' t bring your cell phone to meetings , I think it is not reasonable . What if there are some important calls ?
Well , this one is not compulsory . It is just suggestion .
Can you shorten this pipe for me ? It's too long .
Sure . I'll do it after lunch . What length do you need ?
Can you take 15 mm of it ?
Howdy ! Nice car ! What seems to be the problem ?
I don ' t know ! This stupid old car started spewing white smoke and it just died on me . Luckily , I managed to start it up and drive it here . What do you think it is ?
Not sure yet . How about you pop the hood and we can take a look . Mmmm , it doesn ' t look good .
What do you mean ? My daddy gave me this car for my birthday last month . It ' s brand new !
Well missy , the white smoke that you saw is steam from the radiator . You overheated your engine so now the pistons are busted and so is your transmission . You should have called us and we could have towed you over here when your car died .
Ugh ... So how long is this going to take ? An hour ?
I ' m afraid a bit more than that . We need to order the spare parts , take apart your electrical system , fuel pump and engine and then put it back together again . You are going to have to leave it here for at least two weeks .
Well , what's the matter with you ?
I've got a sore throat and my chest hurts .
Have you got a headache ?
Yes , I ache all over .
Are you coughing much ?
A little bit .
Now , let me listen to your chest . Ah , you have a temperature . Breathe deeply . That's right . Well , don't worry , it's only a throat infection . There's nothing wrong with your lungs . And how is your appetite ?
It's gone completely .
Show me your tongue , please . All right , stay in bed and keep yourself warm . I'll prescribe some pills for you to take .
Is that all doctor ?
Yes . You'll be better in a few days , I'm sure .
Thank you , doctor . Goodbye .
Hey , May . How about getting together for a movie tonight ?
Sure . What's playing ?
Well , Let me check the newspaper . What about The Terminal ?
Wow , it stars Catherine Zeta-Jones , my favorite actress .
Well , birds of a feather flock together . I like her too . She was in a lot of dramas .
She is so beautiful and elegant . And she is famous for her fine acting .
What's more , she doesn't have scandals . And she likes to take part in the charitable activities .
Who is the director ?
Steven Spielberg . Another superstar .
Yes , a legend , also . I still remember , his movies , Jurassic Park and Schindler's List got him nine Oscar awards in 1994 .
Can you introduce the story of The Terminal briefly ?
It tells a romantic and humorous love story .
What can I help you with today ?
I have a problem .
What is the problem ?
I wrote a check for $ 100 and it bounced .
Do you have enough money in your account ?
I think so .
Let me check that for you right now .
Okay . Thank you .
Apparently there is only $ 57 left in your account .
You can ' t be serious !
That ' s what my records show .
I'm going to have some people over for dinner Saturday night . Would you like to join us ?
Oh , I'm afraid I'll be busy tomorrow evening .
Some other time then ?
I want to make a phone call . Can you show me how ?
Of course , pick up the receiver , hit a button and listen for a tone . Are you hearing it ?
Yes , now what do I do ?
Well , after you dial 9 on the keypad , you should hear the tone change .
No , nothing changed .
When you dial 9 and hear the tone change it means you have an outside line . Who are you trying to call ?
I am trying to call my boss .
For an outside call you now just dial the number . For a company number you need to know the extension . Do you have a list of extensions ?
I know a few extensions but I don't know them all .
Hello , do you know anywhere that sells cheap cashmere sweaters ?
Outlets have cheap cashmere sweaters .
What a splendid idea !
Outlets usually give you great deals .
Thanks for helping me .
Wow , it all looks so good . I ' m not sure what to choose .
I can recommend the spare ribs . They are very tasty here .
Actually , I ate too much pork yesterday . I fancy a change .
Ok why don ' t you order the braised fish then ?
That sounds like a good idea . It looks very big though .
Can I also take the MET to get there ?
Yeah sure , it's much quicker . Do you know how ?
No , can I trouble you to lend me a hand ?
Ok , not a problem . Let's go to the station .
You have to buy a ticket first . You want to go to Shi Da , right ?
Yeah .
Ok , then you need to go to Tai Power Building Station .
Where is that ?
Look at the map to see where you are . Then look at where you want to go . The number is how much money you have to pay .
Oh , that's simple enough .
Then , when you have your ticket , you go wait on the platform .
Anything else I should know ?
What is a visa used for ?
It is a significant document for traveling abroad and visiting .
Oh . Where do I need to apply for a visa ?
There are passport processing center in many places . Visa is dealt with in embassies . You need to complete several forms and provide certain certificate .
Does it take a long time to get a visa ?
Not too long . 14 working days for a visa .
What materials do I need to provide ?
Are you still at that work ?
Yes , I'm still working there . But I really find my job boring . I'd like to change my job .
What sort of job do you have in mind ?
I think I'm quite fit for a driver .
But it's very tired .
I don't care .
What's your parents ' opinion ?
Do you know how the national flag of Canada looks like ?
I don't know .
No , it hasn't . It's very dirty .
Someone ought to clean it today .
Mark should clean it . It's his turn .
No , he cleaned it last time . It's your turn .
No , it isn't . You always clean it after Mark .
Oh dear , is it really my turn ? In that case , I'll clean tomorrow .
Clean it now . Only lazy people say they'll work tomorrow .
Then I'll clean it the day after tomorrow .
I passed all the tests , Mom .
How do you get along with your co-workers ?
I get along pretty well with most of them .
So how do you develop good relationships in the office ?
I think the key point is to be considerate of your co-workers ' feelings and needs and make a good working environment .
I was thinking of holding the company retreat in the mountains .
I agree , I think that that would be perfect !
I was thinking it could take place sometime in January .
That might be a little too cold for some people .
Yes , you are right .
What about April ? April has good weather that isn't too cold or too hot .
Yes , that would work out better .
You know , maybe we could take a survey to see how that works for everyone .
Good idea ! We'll have to get right on it .
Would you like to come over for dinner tonight ?
Sure , but I have to tell you that I've become a vegetarian . I don't eat any kind of meat .
When did you decide to become a vegetarian ?
I saw a program a few months ago about how animals are raised for human consumption . I haven't been able to eat a single piece of meat since .
That's great . Do you find that you eat a lot more fruit and vegetables now ?
Definitely . I've also been buying organic fruit and vegetables , which is more expensive , but much better for you because they don't have any pesticides on them .
You've really turned into a health nut , haven't you ?
I guess you could say that . Eating fruit and vegetables helps keep you healthy . I've lost 5 pounds and I feel great !
How do you get enough protein in your diet ?
Well , I eat a lot more tofu , beans , nuts and some fish .
Well , don't worry about dinner . I'll only make vegetarian dishes for you . Do you like sushi ?
I prefer cooked fish to raw fish , but if you really like it , make it .
How about a spicy tofu and vegetable stir-fry ?
That sounds great . What time should I come over ?
Dinner will be ready at about 7:30 pm , so you can come over at 7 p . m .
Hi Jane , you look great .
You too . Have you lost some weight ?
Yes , I took off 4 kilos . I am glad you notice it .
Not some crazy diet fat I hope .
No no , I just changed my eating habits . I eat a balance meal . and I eat less than before .
Sir , I am very glad to tell that we have successfully registered the trademark for our new product . It is the time to think of some effective promoting strategies . We are beginning to get more attention from overseas .
Well done , Fred . Do you know something useful for our promotion for our I-series ?
OK , Let me see . I suppose we must strengthen our promotion , because our brand is still new to some consumers . Maybe we should start our advertising program with our local and overseas distributors simultaneously , because they stand on a better position for selecting the best ways to advertise in market places . Besides , the advertisement fund can encourage them to spend more attention on advertising our products .
That is a good idea to start with . I also think the mass media is also a good approach for advertising .
How about doing shopping this weekend ?
What're you going to buy ?
Sportshoes . Will you go with me ?
Well , what a nice day !
Yeah , the air is really fresh .
But it was not at all so fine yesterday .
Because it rained last night .
Did it ?
It sure did . It was a heavy storm , with lots of thunder .
I was fast asleep , and didn't hear a thing .
Well , it may rain again later today .
Maybe . I see some dark clouds moving in .
There may also be a strong wind coming in .
It'll be dusty , too , I guess .
Maybe not . Dust is no longer a big problem in Beijing .
Why is that ?
We've been planting trees for many years .
I see . The fall in Beijing is really beautiful .
But the summer isn't . It's scorching in the summer .
Then what about spring ?
Spring is warm and short in Beijing .
It must be cold in the winter , though .
You got it . Oh , by the way , it may be really cool in the evening around this time of the year . Don't forget to put on more clothes , or you might catch a cold .
Thanks for reminding me .
Everyone wants to be financial lose kill . You must invest your savings if you planed to retire rich . I ' m thinking about buying stocks . It can be a good investment if I can manage well . What do you say ?
I partly agree with you . Buying stocks is not difficult , but making money consistently from buying stock is very difficult . Even professionals don ' t find it easy , so be careful . Anyway , people like us need help with investing . Why not do some online research ? There are data , reports and discussion forums to educate people on how to invest . In addition , you need to visit an established website that offers stock charts .
Wow , you sound very professional .
How's it going ?
I'm in a good mood today , actually . How about you ?
To be honest , I'm a bit fed up .
What's wrong ?
There's a girl in my company that I really like but I always get shy when she is around .
I see ! Do you want to ask her out ?
Sure , but how ?
You can ask her out for drinks after work .
But for what reasons ? She doesn't even know who I am .
Then you've got a lot of work to do . You need to get her to notice you first .
Easier said than done .
You can start by meeting her at the bus stop and saying ' hello ' to her .
But I always get tongue-tied when I see her .
That's something you need to overcome . Men should make the first move as most girls prefer being chased .
I see . I'll try .
Do you love me ?
I ' m very fond of you .
Yes , but do you love me ?
Why ? You mean a lot to me .
Why didn ' t you answer my question ?
What question ?
Do you love me ? Come on , I ' m eager to hear .
You know that I care for you . I---I ' m proud of you .
Don ' t cherish your words , dear .
What ? Your diamond ring is lost ?
Yeah , I just cannot find it anywhere .
It must have been stolen by the few thieves . I ' ll get it back for you .
Have you got any certificate of technical qualification ?
Yes , I have obtained an accountant's qualification and a driver's license .
How long did it take you to get your driver's license ?
Hi ! What are you watching ?
It ' s a programme about islam . It ' s very interesting .
Wow ! So many people ! Where are they and what are they doing ?
They are muslims on a pilgrimage to mecca . Muslims call this pilgrimage haj .
Why do they go there ?
Muslims believe that every man who is able should go on a haj at least once in his life . Mecca is the spiritual centre of the muslim faith .
When muslims pray , they face towards mecca .
That ' s right . Unfortunately , so many people go on the haj each year that there are often stamped and people get killed .
I heard about that . The pilgrims must walk around a large , sacred black stone .
That ' s right . That ' s when accidents often happen . The Saudi government tries to limit the number of pilgrims , to reduce the chances of accidents .
Pilgrimages are common in many faiths .
Yes . In England , Christian pilgrims might go to Canterbury and many Christians go to the Vatican on pilgrimages .
Isn ' t there a place in france where people go to get healed ?
I think that place is Lourdes . There are many stories of people being healed after visiting there .
Do you think that there is something magical about that place ?
You honestly believe the world ' s improving every year ?
Yes , I do . I think that science is making us wiser . What do you think ?
I don ' t think you ' re right there .
I believe industry is making us wealthier .
I don ' t believe that .
And in my opinion , medicine is making us healthier .
I agree with you in the sense . But we ' re all more miserable than ever , aren ' t we ?
I don ' t agree with you . I maintain that we ' re healthier , wealthier and wiser than we were a hundred years ago .
We still have one more day to go before we return home . What will we see tomorrow ?
no idea . We've enjoyed both the natural scenery and the city sights . What else is there to see ?
what about a factory tour ?
you mean visit a factory ?
yes . I heard there's a lager motor company nearby which open to the public every weekend . We can go to see how a car is manufactured and learn more about the automobile industry .
good idea ! I've always been interested in that . How much is the entrance fee ?
I'm not sure , but as far as I know , most factory tours are free . They are sponsored by the company providing the tour .
really ? What do the companies do that for ?
I believe most of them think of it as good public relations . They can promote their product and make their company better-known .
oh , i see . So factory tours are good for companies as well as visitors .
exactly .
do we need an appointment beforehand ?
hello . Where are you headed today ?
I'm off to Barcelona for a week .
do you have your passport with you ?
yes , here you go . I don't need a visa to go to Spain , do I ?
fortunately for you , you don't . Next time , if you have any questions about visas , you should try to find out before you get to the airport .
that's good advice .
would you like a window seat or an aisle seat ?
are there any seats available by the emergency exits ?
let me see here ... yes , there's one left .
ok . I'll take that one then .
alright . How many pieces of luggage are you checking in ?
I like to travel light so I just have this one .
if that's your only piece of luggage , it is small enough to carry on with you . Would you like to do that so you don't have to wait in luggage reclaim once you arrive ?
yes , please . That's a fantastic idea . Which gate do I need to go to ?
I ' m so excited , mother . Oh , a new baby !
My first grandchild .
And my first nephew . He looks a lot like you , mum . He does .
Do you think so ? Well , I guess . He does look a lot like me . Oh , he ' s got Richard ' s eyes though .
Yes , he does have Richard ' s eyes . The baby even looks like you than Richard does .
Well , children usually resemble their parents .
It ' s true . Michelle is a lot like Henry in so many ways . And she is shy with new people just like he is .
You often like comparing children with their parents .
Mr . Emory ? I think it ' s time to get a new computer .
Why , Christine ? I think the one we have is fine .
For the amount of work we do on the computer these days , the one we ' re using is just too weak . We really need a higher model .
Such bad luck , 200 yuan was stolen by a thief on the bus today .
Don't be angry , you lose money just to avoid misfortune .
Good morning , madam . Can I help you ?
I want to buy some cleansing milk . What would you recommend ?
Your complexion is on the oily side . I suggest you use cleansing gel .
Anything that can keep my skin clean will do .
How do you prefer this one ? It cleans thoroughly without striping your natural protective oil . The gentle formula keeps skin soft and healthy .
Hm ... the smell is too strong , I can't stand it . I'm very sensitive to fragrance .
We've also got a fragrance-free one , specially designed for sensitive skin . I'm sure you'll like it .
I'll try that . Do you have facial cream to go with that ?
Yes , sure . This line of products is fragrance-free . We have a facial mask , moisturizing lotion , eye cream and tonic .
I'll buy the moisturizing lotion and cleansing gel first . If they suit me , I'll come back for the others later .
Hey , Mary , what's up ?
Just so so . Last night I met this great guy at the bar and we had such a wonderful time , so we decided to meet again tonight .
Oh , that's exciting . What does this guy look like ? Is he hot ?
Well , I didn't think so at first . But as we started talking , I found him extremely funny and witty . I couldn't stop laughing at his jokes ! And we have so much in common . We like the same team , music , and most amazingly , we both love Chinese food ! I have the feeling that we are going to be great friends .
It seems you two are a good match . What qualities do you look for in a friend ?
There's nothing definite I think . I don't have a list or anything , but when I first meet somebody , I can usually tell whether or not that person is going to be a good friend . It seems I have radar helping me spot new friends .
Well , that's something I've never heard of . But if you ask me what I value most in a friend , I would say honesty .
I agree . You can't expect a close relationship with a dishonest person . Those are the people that will turn their back on you when you are in need .
Excuse me , Professor . I think there might be an error in my test score .
Sure . Do you think that the total is wrong or that you got something marked wrong that should have been marked right ?
I think that the percentage is incorrect .
Let's just go over all of it to double-check .
Sure , let's do it .
Here is the answer sheet . Do you see a place where I marked something wrong that should have been right ?
I don't see any mistakes .
OK , now that we've gotten those straightened out , let's total the score .
Yes , let's total it .
Well , if I total that like this and divide by this number , I get this total . Do you agree ?
Yes , you're right .
We ' re having a department meeting at 10 o ' clock , ok ?
That ' s fine ... I need to pick up some stationary-you know , a stapler , scissors , files , who should I see about that ?
See Julie , the receptionist . She knows where all that stuff is kept . You might like a calendar for you desk . She can give you one of those too .
Thanks . I need to make a few photocopies .
The photocopier is near my office . Come on , I ' ll show you where it is .
Do you enjoy working in this office ?
Yes , I do . Everyone ' s really friendly . Sometimes , I wish I worked outdoors more , especially during the summer .
What ' s usually discussed at the department meetings ?
How is your appetite today ?
I'm rather hungry now .
What would you like to have ?
Please give me a piece of pie first .
Which would you rather have , beef or chicken ?
Beef , please .
How about drinks ? Coffee or tea ?
Coffee , please .
Do you want to take milk and sugar ?
How are you ?
No so good . I broke traffic regulations yesterday and I got a ticket .
Could you tell me how you dealt with it this time ?
You are not being a good sport about this .
That's because you cheated .
I never cheat .
Hi , Mel , would you like to come and have a cup of coffee this afternoon ?
I ' d love to , but you know I ' Ve got another appointment . I ' m really sorry .
I see . Then what about tomorrow , at Starbucks ?
I ' m afraid not , George . You gotta know something , I ' m not available any more . but I know Becky has a crush on ya .
Excuse me .
Yes ? How can I help you ?
Are these drinks on sale this weekend ?
Yes .
Can I buy more than one case ?
Yes . The limit is four per family .
Okay , I ' ll take four , please . You saved me a lot .
I know . This is a really good bargain .
Thanks .
Have you ever run into a person who tries bleed you white ?
I am always on the look out for such girls .
I hear that some guys splash all their money about on them .
What can I do for you ?
I ' m in need of your services .
What do you need me for ?
I have a court date coming up .
What are you being charged with ?
It ' s the felony charge .
I ' m willing to provide my services .
What ' s your rate ?
I work for $ 150 an hour .
That ' s too high .
That ' s what I charge .
Are you going to vote ?
I am so excited to be voting .
Do you know who you ' re going to vote for ?
I am so impressed with the candidate I ' m going to vote for .
What ' s so great about him ?
I feel that he is very intelligent .
Oh , really ?
Yes , and I agree with all his policies .
That ' s good to hear .
I think this man is going to be the next President .
I hope so .
Let's go to Wangfujing by bus .
Better take the subway . It's faster , and more convenient .
OK , it will be a new experience for me .
We have a rather comprehensive subway system here . You can get almost anywhere rather quickly on a subway , especially at this time of day when the traffic is heavy .
Where do we pay the fare ?
Just give the man standing there 3 yuan and he'll give you a token . Then , you slip it into the slot at the turnstile and push the turnstile to get in .
Let me pay for it . Where can I get a subway map ?
Ask the worker who sells tokens to give you one . It's free fo charge . Actually maps showing subway routes are posted at most stations .
Do I have to pay an additional fare to change trains ?
That dog has white long hair . It ' s lovely .
She is my dog . I like her very much .
What ' s her name ?
Her name is Fluffy . She is a sweet dog .
My dog has spots . He is very strong .
do you remember where you were for the terrorist attacks on 9-11 ?
yes , I was in my apartment in Beijing . Where were you ?
I was at home with my parents in New York City .
really ? Did you see the hijacked planes crash into and destroy the twin towers ?
I didn't see the crash itself , but I did see the smoke and everything afterwards from my parents ' apartment building .
that must have been horrible . Did you go out at all that day to see what was going on ?
no , we decided to stay in our apartment . With all the buses out of service and the underground trains at a halt , many people had no choice but to walk home . It was utter chaos .
did you know anyone who worked in the World Trade Center ?
yes , my uncle's firm had an office in one of the towers .
did he survive ?
unfortunately , he wasn't able to evacuate in time . He ended up dying in the tower .
I'm sorry . That must have really been a nightmarish day for you and your family .
it was . The hijackers didn't have any respect for human life not even their own .
How do you want your hair cut ?
I want it the way Peckham wears it .
Who is Peckham ?
Are you kidding me ? Even the girls know Peckham . Whatever , I have a picture of him here .
You are a big fan of him ! He has strong legs .
Sure , he is a soccer star .
Hey , wake up . It's done . How do you like it ?
Oh , my God . It's disaster . It makes my head look like a soccer ball .
But it's the same hairstyle .
It looks like the hairstyle of Kahn who stands beside him in the picture .
Oh . I made a mistake . I thought the guy on the right was Peckham .
He plays outside right but it doesn't mean he has to stand on the right .
Sorry , but do not worry . I think I can fix it . Just cut a little more off the temple .
I wish the teacher wouldn't make us read this book .
You'd better prepare for the examination .
I don't think the exam will be very hard .
You should change your attitude , or you will not pass the course .
Good afternoon . Thank you for the opportunity to interview for this position .
Hello , have a seat . I ' m Bill Gotcha . I am assuming you found your way here with no trouble ?
Actually , I am very familiar with the area so there was absolutely no problem .
I am curious as to why you want to leave your current employer .
I am interested in switching fields .
Do you feel that you are exceptionally good at anything in particular .
I am good at pulling together teams of people to accomplish a task .
What are you not good at ?
I am impatient with myself at times and am hard on myself .
It's almost 6:00 . I'd better be going .
Can you stay for dinner ? We'd love to have you join us .
What are your plans for the future if you are hired ?
I'll do my utmost if I am hired .
Do you have any short-term goals ?
You honestly believe the world ' s improving every year ?
Yes , I do . I think that science is making us wiser . What do you think ?
I don ' t think you ' re right there .
I believe industry is making us wealthier .
I don ' t believe that .
And in my opinion , medicine is making us healthier .
I agree with you in the sense . But we ' re all more miserable than ever , aren ' t we ?
I don ' t agree with you . I maintain that we ' re healthier , wealthier and wiser than we were a hundred years ago .
hi , Meally , do you know that guy over there ?
The tall one ? Sure , that's Drive , he works with Lily .
He is cute . What dose he do ?
I'm not sure , he is a manager I think .
Really ? Are you going to introduce us ?
What would my new duties be ?
Your main responsibility is trouble-shooting between top management and the general employees .
Will I have the chance to take business trip abroad once in a while ?
Don ' t you have air-conditioning in your apartment ? It ' s sweltering here !
Well , there is air-conditioning . Did you see that window air conditioner there ? The problem is that the window unit isn ' t powerful enough .
I guess not , huh .
Well , I ' m going to move out anyway . The new apartment has central air-conditioning .
You should have moved out long , long ago .
Well , I had to wait until the lease expired . So ...
So how can you stand the heat ?
I have a good feeling about this house .
Yes , I liked it the first moment I pulled up to it .
I love the paint job !
If you like the outside , you are going to really love the inside .
What a beautiful home !
You ' ll notice that the window treatments , carpeting , and drapes are all new .
I like the way the blinds give you privacy from the street .
Follow me into the kitchen . You will love it .
I love that they put a wine storage area in the kitchen .
The best part is the bedroom and attached bathroom .
I love the relaxing colors in the tile and floor covering !
The company is selecting three employees to attend the marketing seminar next month . Did you put your name in for it ?
No , I don't really care too much for seminars ... I find them to be either boring ot useless . I mean , how much can you really learn in one afternoon ?
It's not just about the things that you learn , you know ... seminars are a really great opportunity to mingle and network with professionals in our industry from all over the nation . You can learn a few things , but more importantly , you rub shoulders with the business leaders and make contacts that could lead to potential sales or partnerships in the future . The social mixers are always more important than the seminars anyway .
I'm still not too jazzed about going ... I feel kind of awkward in those cocktail party situations .
Well , what if I told you the seminar is going to be held in Hawaii ? Does that perk your interest ?
Are you telling us a lie again ?
I will be hanged if I lying .
All right . But what was the trouble ?
Excuse me , does this bus go to the new bookstore ?
No , you'll have to get off at the bank , and take a No . 50 .
Thank you . How much is the fare to that stop ?
One dollar .
How many stops are there ?
Two stops after this one .
Could you please tell me when we get there ?
Sure .
By the way , do I need a transfer again after No . 50 ?
Are you doing something on Saturday evening ? If not , welcome to my new apartment .
You moved to a new place ?
Yes , I have been busy emptying the packing boxes and cleaning up the mats . Right now , it looks like a home . I would like to have a small celebration party . Please do come .
Thank you for inviting me . Sounds lovely ! I would like to come . Where is your new apartment ?
It is in the DX community , Room 306 , No . 2 building . It is very easy to find . Just ask the guard at the entrance .
Who else will come ?
I invited all the colleagues in our department and also my former neighbor , Paul . He is a very good person . You should meet him .
Ok , I will be there around 6 . Is that ok for you ?
What are your working hours ?
Eight to twelve in the morning , two to six in the afternoon .
Much better than mine .
What are your hours ?
Hi , Mary , I didn't see you at work this morning . Are you all right ?
Oh , I feel miserable . I've got a bad cold , My head is dizzy and my nose is running .
Oh , I'm so sorry to hear that . Have you seen a doctor or taken any medicines ?
As a matter of fact I have , The doctor said it'll go away after a day or two . He ' s prescribed me some tablets .
Are you feeling better ?
Yes , it helps me but I just have to wait and let my system do the work .
Do you need anything , grocery ?
Oh , no , I'm fine . My refrigerator is piled up with food . But if it's not too much trouble for you . I'd like something to read .
Sure , I'll get it for you . Books or magazines ?
Someone ' s told me behind closed door that he is very hot-tempered .
I ' m afraid what you were told is not quite right , if you could meet him in person , and you ' ll know he ' s very agreeable and capable .
Did you hear ? The state is thinking of legalizing gambling in our city ! Soon we are gonna have amazing hotels and casinos here which will be good for our business !
Are you serious ? Gambling is a vice industry built on deception and fed by the intentional exploitation of human weakness for the sole purpose of monetary gain ! It disgusts me .
What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ?
Well , to begin with , Gambling is addictive , ruins marriages , destroys families and bankrupts communities . Once you are addicted it is very difficult to stop . People have lost their houses , cars and been left out on the street after becoming addicted . Secondly , it exploits because men become addicted to gambling most often because of the action and risk . Women gamble to escape , and senior citizens will start gambling for the social interaction . Underage gamblers often start gambling on sports with friends and then illegal bookies .
Geez ! Now that I think about it , maybe legalizing gambling isn ' t such a good idea ! Although , I have been to Las Vegas , and I didn ' t become addicted or anything like that .
Betty , would you please read this letter of application I've just written ? I'd like to have your opinion .
I'd be glad to tell you what I think .
Good ! I'm interested in your advice .
If I were you , I would change the beginning . You should write about your education first because we like to judge a man by his abilities .
Good idea , Betty . What would you think about the second part ?
I think it's too short . You'd better say something about your work experience .
You're right , I'll change it . How about the last part ?
Very good . But you should talk about your family , too .
How many rooms are you looking for ?
Oh , four or five . How much is the rent for this apartment ?
150 a month .
You won ' t believe who ' s been elected to do overtime on the Baker account ! Me ! I ' Ve already logged in 20 hours of overtime !
Wow ! Why so much ? I thought they were getting you an assistant .
They were supposed to , but so far nobody ' s turned up , and I ' m left on my own to do the work . This is the first break I ' Ve had all day .
They ' re really running you into the ground . Why don ' t you ask for some time off ? You could take a long weekend and go away somewhere .

Were you able to get a look at the suspect's face ?
Yes . I know exactly what he looks like .
I must ask you to pick him out of a line-up .
That won't be a problem .
Look closely at the five men in this line-up .
I am looking .
Do you see the suspect ?
Yes . He's in the line-up .
What number is the suspect ?
Number four .
Thank you for all your help .
Where are you planning on transferring to ?
I can ' t seem to make a decision .
Where do you want to go ?
I honestly have no idea .
You haven ' t thought about it ?
I like it here at PCC .
Why don ' t you just continue going to PCC ?
I like that idea .
It ' s a great school .
I completely agree .
So , have you made your decision yet ?
What are in this folder ?
They are reports of our company .
Are they filed alphabetically ?
No , they are filed according to dates .
Can you find last month ' s report for me , please ?
Have you been registered yet , sir ?
No , I haven't been registered .
Are you a medical or surgical case ?
I'm a medical case .
Do you have your medical history sheet with you ?
Yes , here you are .
Please fill in this admission card . Well , how long do you expect to stay in the hospital ?
The doctor told me to stay about one month .
But there're no beds available now . Two patients will be discharged this afternoon , so you'll have to wait until then .
Well , when they leave the hospital , give me a call and I'll come back .
It ' s so relaxing , taking a walk in the country . The air is so fresh and clean .
would you like to live in the country ? I ' m not sure I ' d like it .
I can see a lot of advantage and disadvantage . The problem is that , for me , each advantage has its own disadvantage .
What do you mean ?
Well , I hate the noise in the city , but I love being around lost of people . The problem is that you can ' t have lots of people and have peace and quiet . The two just don ' t go together .
I see what you mean . I love being far away from a city , but I hate being so far away department stores and sports facilities .
People can ' t have it both ways . If you live in the country , it is often less convenient . If you live in a city , it is noisy , but there ' s more to do .
I would love to be surrounded by hills and streams . They ' re so much better to look at than concrete , rows of parked cars and tall buildings .
I would love to hear the birds singing and feel the fresh breeze on my face . When the wind blows in the city , you get dust in your mouth and in your eyes .
The view from the hill is so beautiful and relaxing . There ' s so sign of pollution . The village looks so peaceful .
Just remember that in that village there ' s nothing to do . There ' s not even a pub or restaurant . There ' s just one small shop with a poor selection of goods .
I feel chilly and I've got a pain in my abdomen .
How long have you had it ?
Almost a week .
I think you've got a cold .
What should I do ?
I'll give you some medicine , and you will be better in a couple of days .
OK . I'd like to have everything gift-wrapped , please .
I'll give you the boxes . You can then go to our gift-wrapping department .
Is it on this floor ?
It's on the first floor , to the right of the main entrance .
Thank you .
Have a nice holiday !
Fixing computer isn ' t my cup of tea . You can leave this job to Jason .
Yeah , he has a good commend of computer skills . But ...
But what ?
Do you remember Tina , my good friend ?
Yes .
She just broke up with her boyfriend .
Well , that happens . I hope she is all right .
But the problem is she and her ex-boyfriend are working in the same department . It is somehow embarrassing for them to see each other everyday .
That is the down side of an office romance . I hope their work is not affected by the emotional stress . The boss must be very annoyed if that will be the case .
Can I take your order please ?
Can I get a burger and a large fries ?
Sure . Anything to drink with that ?
A large coke , please .
Eating here or to go ?
Eating here , please .
I Don't know how they do it ! Our competitors have undercut us by 10 % percent on the price of our latest model . There is no way will be able to compete against that . We're barely breaking even with the present prices .
These price wars are disastrous for our bottom line . If they're charging 10 % less than we are , we've got to find a way to lower our price while keeping our profit .
Profits are almost nonexistent now , we can't beat their price . How do they keep their price so low ?
We can try to lower our cost of production then . We need a price that we can compete with , something comparable with the competition .
What ' s your major weak point ?
I haven ' t been involved in international business , so I don ' t have any experience .
What are you greatest strength ?
Honest , hardworking and responsible .
Does your present employer know you are looking for another job ?
Which school is your children in ?
She is now in a private school .
Oh , it costs too much . It's more expensive than the public school .
It's idea of my husband . He is always banging the drum for better schools .
Hello everyone , and welcome to our CPR for beginners course . First of all , does anyone know what CPR stands for ?
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation !
That ' s right ! We apply CPR in the case of cardiac arrest or pulmonary arrest .
What does that mean ?
Well , basically if your heart stops pumping blood , or your lungs stop pumping air , then we need to get them going again ! That ' s when we have to apply this procedure . Let ' s begin ! I need a volunteer .
Me ! Me !
Alright , come here and lay flat on your back . Let ' s suppose this young woman has stopped breathing . We must lift the person ' s chin so that we clear a pathway for air to get into the lungs . Then we place our mouth over the other person ' s mouth and blow air two or three times , like this .
Wait , what are you doing ? I ' m a married woman ! You can ' t just try to kiss me like this !
Madam I ' m not trying to kiss you ! I am trying to demonstrate how to apply CPR in the case of an emergency .
Well , OK . But no French kissing !
As I was saying , we blow air through the mouth in this manner . Once this is done , we must try to get the heart going again . To do this , we place our hands over the person ' s chest , and press down firmly two or three times .
I think that the company retreat should be in the mountains this year .
What a great idea !
January would be a good month for a mountain retreat .
I like the mountain idea , but I am not so sure about the month of January .
You know , now that I think about it , you might be right .
April might be nice . It is far enough away to make the necessary arrangements .
That is a good suggestion .
We could ask everyone what would be the best time for them .
Yeah , that would let us know what would work best .
Excuse me , is this personnel division ?
Yes . What can I do for you ?
I came about your advertisement for a senior production planner .
What ' s your name ?
My name is Li Jean .
You have been in Peking University , hadn't you ?
Yes , seven years .
What degree do you have now ? :
Master of Marketing Management .
Do you have any experience in this field ?
Yes . I worked at AB Company .
Why are you interested in the position ?
Because you need a senior production planner who is good at mathematics and fluent in English . I think I am fit for the position .
All right . If we decide to hire you , we'd pay you 5,000 yuan a month at the start . How do you think about it ?
Hello , Miss , what can I do for you this afternoon ?
I need the haircut . But you seem so busy today .
Yes , it is , busy today . We usually have a lot more clients on the weekend . Would you like to take a sit , and wait for a while , please ?
Ok , but how long I have to wait , it is going to be more than 30 minutes .
It should be around that , if you like , please for a free to read the magazine while you are wait .
Thank you .
Sorry to keep you waiting , Miss . I'll have a dresser Mr . Li is just finish with a client in a moment or two . Would you have a shampoo first ? I'll get it on for you .
I'm very worried , doctor . I'm afraid that I'm very ill .
Why do you think so ?
Because I feel tired all the time , even when I wake up in the morning . I find it very difficult to do any work . I have no appetite .
How do you sleep ?
Very badly , doctor .
Are you worried about anything ?
Well , yes , I am . I'm worried about my work . I've just taken a new job . I earn a lot of money but it's difficult work . I'm always afraid of making a mistake .
What kind of job are you interested in ?
I want a job in which I can use English , I would also like to be able to have some responsibility in my work .
I really appreciate that I would expect my secretary to be able to work independently and take over some of my ordinary responsibilities , such as answering routine correspondence , taking phone calls for me and sometimes assisting me with personal affairs .
Yes , I see . In my previous job , I did typing and filing everyday .
Have you had any experience as a guide ?
Well , not exactly , but I have shown some of my foreign friends around Beijing .
Once in a while we have visitors from abroad and I would like to be able to ask my secretary to take them shopping and sightseeing .
Those are today ' s top stories . Now let ' s go to John for the weather . John , what does the forecast look like for our weekend travelers ?
I ' m afraid we ' re in for a rough weekend , Marry . There is a storm system moving through the East Coast . It will be drizzling all day today , and there ' s a 60 percent chance of thunderstorms this evening . It will be warm and humid all weekend . In the Midwest , expect strong winds and a low of around 40 degrees .
That ' s pretty chilly for the summer ! Will it rain on Saturday ?
Unfortunately , yes . It will be clear early Saturday morning but there is a high chance of showers and thunderstorms later in the day . There is a severe thunderstorm warning for some parts of the Southeast . Folks in those areas might see some hail and flooding , especially in areas that have been experiencing record high rainfalls .
That certainly sounds like a dreary Saturday .
It gets better on Sunday , though . The storm systems move east and the skies will clear up at night . It will still be rather cool , with highs in the low 50s . The West Coast will be experiencing some unusually chilly weather , but at least the sun will come out . I advise weekend travelers to be careful , especially while driving . Back to you , Mark .
It's four o'clock already . I hate to leave , but I think I must .
Can you stay a little longer ?
How are you ?
I ' m great . Thanks .
Did you need something ?
I need your help .
How may I help you ?
I need to find this newspaper article .
Have you checked the periodicals section yet ?
I forgot about that section .
If you ' d like , I can show you were to find it .
Could you do that ?
Follow me .
Open you suitcase , please .
OK . Here you are .
Do you have anything to declare ?
No , I don't .
Any cigarette , liquor ?
Yes , I have two cartons of cigarettes , one bottle of whisky .
What's this white powder ? Are they drugs ?
No , this is the medicine for the stomach .
May I open one of these ? Let me taste it .
Excuse me . Do you have a minute ? I'd like to tell you about the Bucky Card .
Well ... alright . I guess I have a minute .
Do you know about the Bucky Card ?
I've heard about it , but I don't really know about it .
The Bucky Card is a great way for you to save money while you have a good time here at school . It gives you discounts on all kinds of things . Movies , pizza , clothing , school supplies .
What about beer ?
The Card doesn't actually give you discounts on beer . But it will give you discounts on certain club cover charges . So if you want to see your favorite band at Amy's or Cosmo's Club , you get a discount on the entrance fee .
That's pretty cool . How much of a discount ?
Usually it's two dollars off the cover price .
And all these other things , pizza and movies for instance--how much of a discount do I get on that stuff ?
This pamphlet shows you what restaurants and movie theaters have discounts . And twice every semester we will send you a new issue of the pamphlet . The Bucky Card has just started . Every couple months we have new businesses joining our program . It ' s a great way for students to save money !
Alright , alright . Let me look at that pamphlet . Hmm . Alessio's Pizza Parlor . That's cool . I go there all the time . And Cosmo's Club . And 4 - D records . Alright . How much does it cost ?
It costs only 19 dollars a year for a card .
Whoa ! That's expensive ! It should be cheaper .
But think of how much money you'll save ! You can use it for a year .
Good afternoon !
Good afternoon ! Sit down , please . How are you ?
I'm very well , thank you . How are you ?
Very well too , thank you very much . Isn ' t it a lovely day ?
Yes , it's beautiful , but it's also very hot .
Yes .
What's the weather like in your country ?
Mm ... It's quite warm now .
Where do you live ?
In London . Where do you live ?
Did you hear what happened to Mike last night ?
No , what ?
Well , apparently he had too much to drink and got into some kind of trouble . Typical , isn't it ?
Oh , no . What kind of trouble ?
Jane , pleases come with us .
I cannot dance , you know . I have't such a talent .
Just for fun , not for showing . What do you worry about ?
Nothing . I have told you before that I won't go to the party and that's flat .
Good morning . I ' m Liu Yi , from China XYZ Company . We have an appointment with Mr . Thomas .

Yes . Can you show me the menu , please ?
Of course . Here you are .
Then , what's special tonight ?
Our seafood is fresh . I recommend shrimp with garlic .
This is where we sing ? These booths are so comfortable I think I could fall asleep !
Let's order something to eat . What are you in the mood for ?
I'll have whatever you're having .
OK . How about some spring rolls and squid balls , some pork skins , and some beer !
Can I have this roll of film developed here ?
Sure . Let's see it .
Here you are .
What size of prints would you like to have ?
Regular will be fine . How long will it take ?
Only four hours .
Happy birthday , Alice , here is a little something for you .
What experience do you have with office machinery ?
I know how to use the telex machine , the photocopier , and the word processor . By the way , I took a computer course in university .
Where do you want to be in five years ?
I want to be a manager .
Very good . Any questions ?
What kind of permanent would you like to have ?
What kinds do you have ?
Oh , we have quite a regular , cold perm , straight perm , pin curl and foam .
I have a problem with my credit card .
What's wrong with it ?
There is a charge on my card that I didn't make .
Can you tell me what the charge was ?
It's for a purse that cost $ 350 .
Are you positive that you didn't buy the purse ?
I can't even afford a purse that expensive .
I'm very sorry . When was this purchase made ?
I was at work , but the purchase was made at 3
We're going to investigate this claim .
OK . Do I have to pay for this charge ?
Dahua's Market . How can I help you ?
Where is your store located ?
We are on Nanjing Road , next to the theatre .
Can I help you ?
I'd like a pair of sports shoes .
Well , we have all kinds of sports shoes . Could you tell me what kind of sport you usually do ?
I just like jogging .
OK , then you can buy a pair of jogging shoes . Here are jogging shoes . Which pair do you like best ?
Er ... , that blue pair . I need size 43 , please .
Here you are . You can try them on .
Happy birthday , Aims !
Thank you , Lisa .
Here is a present for you . I hope you like it .
Oh , great ! I love it ! You know I've been expecting this for a long time .
I'm very glad to hear that .
What can I do for you today ?
I need to return a book .
Can I do anything else for you ?
I want to check these books out .
Is that all ?
That ' s all .
May I see your library card , please ?
It ' s right here .
Will that be all for today ?
Yes . That ' s it .
These are due back in two weeks .
I saw on TV that there is an entertainment item , bungee in Beijing Longtanhu Park . Except that the height is not exiting enough .
You say how high can be exciting ?
The highest bungee spot in the world is located in Mount Kikicama , South Africa , which is 216 meters high . A cable car in a scenic spot in Switzerland is 160 meters high .
I know that Frenchmen installed the Bungee cord between two tall buildings .
It is said that Bungee was originally a grown-up ceremony of the indigenous people of New Guinea . People stood on branches of the tree , which was over 30 meters high . Their feet were fastened with canes and they jumped off from where they stood . When they almost reached the ground , they suddenly stopped to prove their bravery and express that they were able to endure the hardships of life independently .
Julia , why have you prepared a candlelight dinner ? Anything special to celebrate ? Did you get a promotion ?
Honey , don't tell me that you forgot our anniversary , did you ?
Oh , my dear , how can I forget such an important day ? I was just kidding . Look at this box .
What's in it ?
Have a guess .
A necklace ?
No .
I have no idea .
Open it now .
Oh , my god . A diamond brooch . It's so beautiful . You're so kind to me , A . Thank you !
I spend all my time looking after my baby . I'm so tired .
Why don't you ask your husband to help you with it ?
It looks delicious . I will order it .
I am sorry , sir , it's for 4 persons to have . I think it's too large for you .
Would you please make it for a single person ?
So will you come to work with us ?
Can I use my green pad again to write you admiring notes ?
We'll have to negotiate that . It's a possibility .
You miss me , don't you ?
Don't push your luck , Dave .
OK , I'm in . When do I start ?
Hello , how are you today . Here for your six month check-up ?
I'm fine , Dr . Beecham . Yes , just a cleaning and check-up today .
Oh , fine . Let's take a look .
( She probed my teeth and checked my gums . ) Well , it looks like you have a cavity and your crown is loose . We need to fill that cavity before it gets any worse and the crown needs to be refitted . Make an appointment for next week and I'll take care of them .
Okay , I'll do that , but my crown was just put on last year . Will my dental insurance cover the work ?
Since you had that done here , we'll take care of it . There won't be a charge . And , your insurance should cover the work on the cavity . Now , I'm going to have the hygienist do your cleaning and I'll see you soon for the other work .
You are blue in the face , arn't you ?
The cat has eaten my fish , I'll kill it .
But supposing your son killed like the fish , what do you think then ?
I'll beat him .
I'm going on a cruise this summer .
No kidding ?
My brother won a free trip and he's taking me .
Who got ripped off ?
Big time ! A hacker broke into the company's files and got all her personal information . You really think it's completely safe ?
Well , maybe not 100 percent . I did hear about some tricks people use .
Now we're getting to the truth .
There are shills . A shill is someone who bids up the price of their own sale .
I'm afraid I forgot to lock the door .
You're so careless , Billy .
Sorry , Mum , I'll lock it right away .
What's the weather today ?
It's fine today .
What was the weather like yesterday ?
It rained all day yesterday . The weather was awful last week .
What will the weather be like tomorrow ?
Excuse me . I want to pay for these items .
OK . This way , please .
How much is it all together ?
Let me see . 100 dollars .
Can I pay by credit card ?
Sorry . You can only pay in cash .
OK . Here you are .
Thank you . Do you need the invoice ?
Yes . And can you pack the things up , please ?
The boss is mad at you .
Excuse me , are you Miss Green ?
Yes . May I help you ?
May I introduce myself ?
Yes .
I ' m a new student in the school . My name ' s John .
Nice to meet you , John .
Who are those guys ?
Kobi Bryant and Shaquille O ' Neal , they are the Los Angeles Lakers ' star players .
Oh .
Wait a second . He shoots , he scores !
All right !
Here comes Jordan , though .
Wow , Michael Jordan ' s slam-dunks are beautiful things to watch .
Yeah . He ' s older , so he doesn ' t slam , as much as he did when he was younger , but when he does , it ' s still amazing .
Which team do you think will win ?
Excuse me . I am interested in getting a library card .
Sure , let me give you an application . You can fill it out right here at the counter .
OK , here it is .
Let me take a look at this for you . May I have your driver's license , please ?
Here's my license and form .
You seem to have filled the form out all right . Are you familiar with our rules and fines ?
Yes , I know what to do .
The hours and limitations are printed on the card and this handout .
OK .
The May holiday is coming up soon . Are you planning on going on vacation ?
I am . I just went to the travel agent ' s and picked up these brochures .
Where are you planning on going ?
I fancy going to Tibet for a few days . Have you ever been there ?
I went a long time ago , before they built the new train that can take you there .
Would you recommend going there for a few days ?
Personally , I think it ' d be better to go when you have more time . A few days isn ' t really enough to get acclimatize yourself and to go on a few excursions outside of the capital .
You ' re probably right . What do you think about Yangshao ?
It ' s a beautiful city , but I think it ' s become too touristy . How about going to a cosmopolitan city like Shanghai or Hong Kong ?
I ' d like to get away from the big city life .
Maybe you should consider going to a hot springs resort outside of Beijing . I heard they are very relaxing .
I guess if I only have a few days , I should probably think about going somewhere that isn ' t so far away .
Since the May holiday is the high season , you should probably call ahead to reserve a room . Here ' s the phone number .
Why do you go fishing so often ?
I always think everybody looks down on me
Don't be that negative .
How can you be optimistic ? You can see it in their eyes .
I find it there is no meaning in living this world .
Don't be that negative .
Anita , I ' Ve been here only three days and you ' re leaving already .
Just for a few weeks . I need this vacation . You ' ll be all right . You know the project we ' re working on , and you ' re a good scientist . Don ' t worry . I ' ll be back as soon as I spend or gamble all my money .
Gambling ? Where ?
Las Vegas . I find gambling relaxing . I don ' t take it seriously , the way some people do . Besides , I love the shows and the all-night atmosphere of the town . The casinos never close , you know .
Hi , I have a reservation for flight 007 to New York .
May I see your ticket and photo ID ?
Yes , here's my ticket and my driver's license .
Are these your bags ?
Yes , they are .
Have you been asked to carry anything for a stranger ?
No .
Have you maintained full control of your possessions while in the airport ?
This is tough to say , John , but I think we should break up .
Are you serious ?
Yes , I mean it .
But why ? Did I do anything wrong ?
No , we are just too different . This relationship isn't going anywhere .
Hey , come on . It's too early to say that . We can fix things .
I have thought about it for a long time . I think it's time to move on for both of us .
But I still love you .
I'm sorry .
I knew this would happen some day ...
Then why didn't you talk to me ?
Well . It's not all my fault , Anna ...
I don't want to argue with you anymore . This is going to be tough , but let's try to forget that and be friends .
Have you made the decision yet ?
I think we'll be better off if we are apart .
Then shall we keep pure friendship ?
Look , George , There's the Great Wall .
I see . It's on top of the hills .
Yeah , it stretches over for thousands of miles .
I know . It's a major symbol of China .
Where can we climb it ?
Do we have any choices ?
Well , we could take the cable car .
Ah ... let's just climb . It's more fun , I think .
Okay . Let's go .
Well , that was tough .
But we made it .
This looks great . When was it built ?
It was first built about twenty-five hundred years ago .
That's remarkable .
Have you moved into your new house yet , Michael ?
We just moved in yesterday , actually .
So , what do you think about the place ? Are you glad that you moved in ?
It's great ! Unfortunately , we're going to spend a fortune doing everything up .
How old is the house then ?
It's about 200 years old . It has a lot of history !
Sounds fascinating . Where is your new house located ?
It's just off of the ring road .
Do you have a big yard ?
It's bigger than our last one . I've got flowers in the front , and fruits , vegetables and a fish pond in the back .
Is your house well-lit ?
Oh , yes . Our windows let plenty of natural light in . They've also got wonderful views of the park behind our house .
How many rooms does your house have ?
Right now , there are three bedrooms , two barrooms , a kitchen , a sitting room , a dining room , and a living room . We're hoping to add on a green room and a guest bedroom . In fact , when the guest bedroom is ready , you should come and stay with us for a weekend .
Hello , Zhang lin ! Fancy meeting you here !
Hi , Lin Tao . I have't seen you for some time .
How's life going , Zhang Lin ?
Yes , the same as ever , thanks . What about you ?
Pretty good , thanks . I'm going to see my uncle .
Good bye then , and keep in touch .
I find Beijing Opera is quite a bore .
Young people enjoy pop songs more .
It's just like listening to a language which you know nothing at all .
Hello , Vicki .
Hi , David . What a beautiful necklace ! Dude , I ' Ve never seen anything like it .
Well , you can have it for eleven hundred -- as a friend .
I think seven hundred is enough .
What ? Seven hundred ?
Well , eight hundred , then ?
No , one thousand at least .
Eight hundred and fifty . Come on . I have 4 kids , 3 dogs , and 2 husbands to feed !
You ' re a thief , Vicki . But I guess , eight hundred and fifty is all right .
Here you are , sucker !
What would you like to drink ? Tea or coffee ?
Coffee , please .
So , you also like Coffee ?
Yes , of course . I can't go through a day without coffee in the morning .
Me too , but I think we shouldn't drink too much of it , as it's not very healthy .
I totally disagree . The other day I read in a book that a number of recent studies suggest that it can be a highly beneficial drink . Researchers have found strong evidence that coffee reduces the risk of several serious aimed 3 ' including diabetes , heart disease and cirrhosis of the liver .
But I also heard that coffee and its caffeine content , serve as a drug on the human body that negatively affects the central nervous system , as well as other organs , and leads to addiction
I don't think so . Coffee helps me wake up , keep alert , and improve my short term memory .
Well , I adjust going to have to disagree with you . A healthy body wakes up without caffeine !
Maybe you are right to some extent .
You may try to have some alternatives and see how you feel .
Last weekend I didn't want to go out either , so I stayed at home and played video games by myself . It was really fun !
Oh yeah , that sounds pretty cool , I guess ...
Yeah , I'm really into video games . In fact , all my friends are on the Internet . I've never met any of them in the real world .
Is there a city where it's always warm ?
Yes , there are many cities where it's almost always warm . San Diego , for example .
Are there any other cities where it's always hot ?
Many . Most of the cities in the southern part of the United States are hot all year .
But why do so many people live there ?
Most people grow accustomed to the climate , but there are many others who complain about it all the time .
Are there any cities where it rains a lot ?
Several . Two good examples are Seattle , in the state of Washington , and Portland , Oregon .
Tell us about some cold cities .
In the north there are many cities which are very cold in the winter . Boston and Chicago are two of them .
Is it always cold in Chicago and Boston ?
I am going on my first date tonight . Can you give me some suggestions about what to wear ?
Well , I think you look very pretty in your polka dot purple dress with your hair piled at the rear . That makes you very graceful and mysterious .
Yeah , that's a good idea . Let me try it .
Remember to match it with your glittering star-shaped necklace . Very attractive on formal occasions .
Do I look more mature in the highheel shoes ?
Sure , more elegant and taller .
I shall wear light make-up instead of heavy . The face powder will lighten my skin color .
If I were your date , I would be so charmed by you .
Hello , Elizabeth . How are you ?
Fine , thanks .
Are you sure you're all right ? You look a bit worried today . Is anything wrong ?
Well , yes , there is something wrong actually . Perhaps you can give me some advice .
Of course , if I can .
Well , last night when I returned from the theatre , I found that I'd lost my wallet .
Oh dear ! That's terrible ! What was in your wallet ?
Well , some money . of course , my visa , all my identity cards and some photos .
Well , if were you , I'd go to the police station straight away and report it .
Yes , I've already done that , and they said they'd look for it . But we're leaving soon and I need my visa and identity cards badly .
Oh dear ! What a pity ! Are you sure you lost the wallet in the theatre ?
Yes , quite sure .
I think you should put an advertisement in the China Daily , saying when and where you lost it .
But that takes too long .
Hi , Alice , what are you doing this sunday .
Nothing really , why , what ' s up ?
If you are free , maybe you can get having for my birthday party , it should be fun .
Sounds great , i ' d very much like having something thanks , when ?
Around six pm .
Do you need help setting up or anything ? I don't mind . I like to do that kind of thing . It's fun and I have a good eye for decorating .
No . thank you . I can handle it , but thanks for the offer .
Ok , I will see you again .
Seattle restaurant . Is there anything I can do for you ?
I would like to book a table for five at 7:00 tonight .
May I have your name , please ?
Michael .
Jack's been looking unhappy lately .
His girlfriend broke up with him .
hi , Charlie ! What are you reading ?

who ' s it about ?
it ' s about bob Dylan .
who is he ?
he ' s a famous American musician .

sure , bob ! I ' m on chapter 12 now , so I ' m almost finished .
how many chapters does the book have ?
there are 15 chapters in total .
when do you think you ' ll have finished reading it ?
I should be done by Friday . I ' ll give it to you in class then .
thanks . Charlie !
Can I apply for a permit today ?
I need to see your ID .
I think I forgot it in the car .
You need to give me your ID and $ 27 .
I'm going to go and get my ID from the car right now .
Go get it .
Here you go .
All right , I'm going to need you to fill this out .
May I borrow your pen ?
Here's a pen for you .
Thanks for your help .
Excuse me , I got a parcel arrival notice yesterday .
Would you show me your notice ?
Here you are .
Please endorse it first . Do you have identification ?
Hi , Alex . Would you come with me to supply ? I ' Ve got to pick up a load of stuff and I ' m afraid I can ' t carry it all .
Sure , Stacy . Let me just grab my coat .
Thanks . I appreciate the hand . I ' d have to make two or three trips on my own .
Well , here is your breakfast !
Thanks so much . Miss , I believe I ordered my eggs scrambled , and these are fried .
Sorry , your friend over there ordered fried eggs , and I gave you his by mistake .
Oh yeah . Here , I will just trade with him .
Here are your pancakes , madam .
But I ordered waffles !
Oh , I am so sorry !
That's OK . I will eat my eggs and bacon , and you can take my pancakes back .
Good , sir . I will take care of that right away .
Good afternoon , Mrs . White .
Good afternoon , Mr . Black . Haven't seen you for a long time . Can I help you ?
Can I see Mr . Cooper , your manager now ?
Let me see if he is free . Would you please sit down and wait for a moment ?
All right .
The manager will come to see you in a few minutes .
Thanks a lot , Mrs . White .
I can promise you that , if you buy our product , you will be getting quality .
I ' Ve looked at your units , and I am very happy with them . Your goods are all far above standard quality .
We spend a lot of money to make sure that our quality is much better . We don ' t sacrifice quality for quick profits .
Well , we ' re really interested in placing an order under negotiation . We can start the negotiations as soon as you want .
That ' s great . I ' m glad we ' ll be able to do business together . I ' ll have some quotes ready for you by tomorrow morning .
Do you have a good English-Chinese dictionary ?
Sure . How about this one ?
Is this the latest edition ?
Yes . We have both the paperback and the hardcover .
What's the difference ?
The hardcover is more expensive .
Can you help me find my books ?
Certainly , do you have your school schedule ? The books are arranged by course number and instructor .
Hello , I am Richard from the Brooks Head-hunter company . Can I have a private talk with you ?
Er ? I am driving right now . Can you call back in 30 minutes ?
Sure .
Hi , Monica , Richard again . Have you ever heard about our company ? It is an international one with good reputation . We have a lot of successful cases . If you ' re trying advance your career , I would love to help you . XYZ Company is one of our clients . They ' re in need of the talent like you . Would you be interested in taking part in an interview ? It is scheduled some time within this week .
Thank you for calling . I really appreciate your kindness . But right now , I ' m very busy preparing for an interview of another company . I don ' t think I am available for this opportunity .
Ok , I see . Good luck to you . You have my number . Call me when you change your mind . I can send you more detailed information about our company and jobs you might be interested in if you give me your private e-mail address .
Well , I will text it to you . Thank you , bye for now .
Welcome to our company .
I really love this kind of atmosphere .
An impressive officer is vital to the image projected by the company .
There are people everywhere . What's that girl doing ?
She is dealing with customers and driving up new business . The guy next to her is in charge of their office computer network .
And what about that man there ?
He is our accountant .
I see you have a coffee bar for a water cooler . The staff here must be comfortable . I think it really helps morale when people feel supported by their employees .
Harry , do you like the opera ?
No , not really .
Why is that ? It is called real art .
Well , it's very expensive and they're usually singing in another language . That kind of gets on my nerves .
You were right . It's raining again .
Hey ! What's up ?
Hi , John ! I haven't seen you for ages .
Yeah , I've been out of town .
So how have you been ?
Hello , I'm looking for a shop that sells inexpensive cashmere sweaters .
Have you tried an outlet ?
Why didn't I think of that ?
Many of my friends shop at outlets .
Thanks . That is a good suggestion .
How was the party last night ? Did you enjoy it ?
Oh , don ' t talk to me about last night ! It was the most awful evening I ' Ve ever had .
Why ? What happened ?
Well . Mary had promised to be my date , but she stood me up . I waited for her for a full hour in the cold wind .
What about the party ?
It was boring . The music was too slow and the food was lousy and , above all , I was really sick of the same old crowd all the time .
So how long did you stay ?
Do you know about All Fools ' Day ?
On that day , people play all kinds of tricks on others , and the one easily taken in is called April fool .
April fool !
Excuse me , can you tell me where Main Street is ?
Turn left at the second light and then go straight for two blocks .
Is it far ?
No . It's only a five-minute walk . You can't miss it .
Thanks a lot .
hey , Jimmy , you've been sitting in front of the TV all day . Anything interesting on TV ?
not really . Quite boring right now , actually . Mostly infomercials and public service announcements .
why don't you turn off the TV and get outside ? You need to get some fresh air .
I know , I know . But my favorite show is on in a couple of minutes . It's the series finals , and I wouldn't miss it for the world !
Really ? What's the series about ?
well , it's about how an immigrant girl achieve her dream in America . It's a sitcom but really quite smart and really funny . I think you'd like it .
it sounds interesting , but I am not a big fan of TV shows . They're time consuming and don't have much depth .
I believe some shows are quite informative and interesting . Take this show for example , it examines American xenophobia and how it might conflict with the American dream , with hilarious results .
really ? that's interesting !
yeah . Oh , here it comes ! why don't we watch it together ? they are going to have a court debate in this episode . It should be good .
My friend Emily recently lost 18 pounds .
Oh , really ?
The point is that she has been persuading me to lose weight too .
Well , it's a good thing for you .
Good ? Yes , it's good for her but not for me . You see , she tells me that I'll feel better about myself if I slim down . She keeps giving me newspaper clippings about the latest miracle diet and insists that I join a health club , as she has .
So you don't think you are fat and need to lose weight ?
I just can't bear it that Emily made me feel like a baby who always pigs out on junk food .
junk food is not good for your health . Too much of it will make you fat .
But junk food is so easy . It requires no silverware or plates , no rigid mealtimes , no pleases and thank yous .
Ok , but junk food has many disadvantages . As junk food contains high amount of oil and fat , you'll feel sleepy , but not be able to concentrate when you have a lot of it .
Yes , but life without chips , ice cream and coca cola is boring .
Let me see . You could exercise more to keep fit .
good morning . How can I help you ?
I'd like to open a new account .
have you filled out an application form ?
yes . And I've brought some documents along with me , too . Do you need to see my passport ?
yes . I'll just have my assistant look over these quickly and then we'll move on to the next step . Did you want to open up a checking account and a savings account ?
yes . Does the checking account come with a debit card ?
yes . Actually , both accounts come with cards that you can use in ATM machines , so that you won't have to come in to the bank to make a transaction .
that's very convenient .
it is . Our customers really like it . Do you have any other questions about your new accounts ?
yes . What's the maximum amount that you are allowed to have in an overdraft ?
the maximum is $ 1000 .
is there a penalty for having an overdraft ?
yes , but it's not much . You just have to pay 1 % interest on the amount . It's much lower rate than any of our loans and it's much better than owing money to most credit cards .
that's true . Is everything alright with my documents ?
they're all in order . If you just sign your name here , you'll receive your cards and pin numbers in the mail in about three weeks .
thank you very much .
Did you enjoy that new movie ?
That movie's just a lot of noise , same as Simon .
Oh , what happened , Carole ?
I had to go by myself , he couldn't make it .
What ? I met him just before I took off from Kitty's , he said he was coming .
Kitty's ? He sure gets around , doesn't he ?
Looks like it . So how did he handle it to ?
His excuse was familiar . He said his car died again .
I think that's a bunch of nonsense . It seemed ok to me .
I know . Last week he gave me a lie about being too busy .
Doesn't sound promising .
Well , I think it's the time to pull the plug .
If you want I'll let him know if I run into him .
Excuse me . Is this the right way to the museum ?
I'm afraid you're going in the opposite direction . Go back the way you came , and take the second turn on the left . The museum is straight ahead , right in front of you .
Will it take me long to get there ?
Well , it's about fifteen minutes ' walk .
Which bus goes there ?
You may take a No . 34 bus . And the subway can also take you there .
Thank you very much .
Jenny , what are you going to do tomorrow morning ?
I don't know yet . What's your idea , Dad ?
I'm thinking of taking you and Peter swimming . What do you think ?
Dad ! It's cold now !
Excuse me . I ' m a stranger here and lost my way .
Can I help you ?
Sure . Can I get to the central department stall this way ?
uh ... Yes . Turn right , then take the second turning on your left .
Is it far ?
It ' s about fifteen minutes ' walk . That ' s all .
And do you know where the national bank is ?
Yes . It ' s on this street . Keep walking for two blocks and it ' s on the corner on the right .
Thanks very much .
You are welcome . Good luck .
What's today's special ?
I think our smoked fish will be to your taste .
Are you still working day and night ?
Do I have to deposit my handbag at the checkroom ?
No , you do not have to . The handbag can be taken with you . There is the cart at the entrance .
Thank you . I'd tike to buy some milk powder for my baby . Is there anything that you can recommend for me ?
Well , how old is your baby ?
No more than three .
The milk powder on the second level of the shelf is for the kids from 2 ages to 4 ages . I advice that you should buy the Wyeth brand , the source of milk is imported from New Zealand .
How about its quality ?
You can be assured of it . There are various nutritions which are beneficial for the growth of babies ' bone and cerebrum .
OK , what is this ?
It is feeding-bottle as the free gift .
Why did Tom quit his job ?
He said his present job seemed to be a blind alley .
What can I do for you ?
I want my hair cut .
How would you like your hair cut ?
I'm not sure . What do you suggest ?
Well , how about like this ?
I don't like it . It's outdated .
Okay . How about this style ?
It seems a little too wild .
Can you give me some idea of what you'd like ?
I want a haircut just like that kind .
I hate to be the bearer of bad news , but it's that time of year again . Have you got your performance evaluations finished yet ?
Oh no ! Evaluations ! You can tell that's not my favorite job ; I haven't even started yet . When is the deadline for turning in thecompleted forms ?
Well , you do still have three weeks . But remember the employee must sign them , too . Filling them in is nothing - it's meetingwith the employees that takes so much time .
I never know how to rate the employees ' work . Of course attendance and productivity are easy , I just look at the sales figures .
So it's the subjective criteria like team building and colleague support that you find hard ?
Exactly ! Attitude ... how do you rate attitude ?
I suggest letting each employee fill out his or her own evaluation for those items . Then , based on their self - assessment , you can add your comments . It's a great starting point for discussion
May I see a hat , please ?
What size do you take ?
I'm sorry . I don't know .
I'll measure you . . . You take size 6 . What colour hat would you like ?
Brown , please .
Here are some nice brown hats . Try this hat on . It ' s a very good one .
Yes , I like this one . It goes very well with my coat . How much is it ?
What can I do for you , Miss ?
Have you a bus tour ? I have one day left so I think the best way is to take a bus tour .
That's right . The bus tour is really efficient and cheap .
What time does the next bus leave ?
Jenny , I was wondering if you , um ... are you busy this Friday ?
Yes , Friday I have a class right after work .
Oh . What about Saturday ? Are you free then ?
Saturday my parents are coming to town . What's up ?
What about tonight ? Do you have plans tonight ?
No . Did you want to go do something ?
Yes ! Yes ! I want to take you to dinner .
I feel pity for the old man .
I feel the same way .
It must be dreadful to grow old .
Is there I can do for you , miss ?
Do you know what the weather will be tomorrow ? We are planning to climb the mountain .
Let me see , oh it's a sunny day . You will have a nice trip tomorrow .
Hello , Betty , how are you ?
Quite well , Tom . And you ?
Just fine , thank you . How ' s your father today ?
He's much better today .
I'm glad to hear that . Bye .
Could you introduce to me the man over there ?
Certainly . Let ' s to and meet him now .
I'm looking for the produce section , please .
All of the produce is in aisle A .
Are bananas on sale today ?
Hey , Mary , what's up ?
Not much . Last night I met this great guy at the bar and we had such a wonderful time that we decided to meet again tonight .
Oh , that's exciting . What's this guy like ? Is he hot ?
Well , I ddin't think so at first . But as we started talking , I found him extremely funny and witty . I couldn't stop laughing at his jokes ! We have so much in common . We like the same teams , music , and most amazingly , we both love Chinese food ! I have the feeling that we are going to be great friends .
It seems you two are a good match . What qualities do you look for in a friend ?
There's nothing definite I think . I don't have a list or anything , but when I first meet somebody , I can usually tell whether or not that person is going to be a good friend . It seems I have a radar helping me spot new friends .
Well , that's something I've never heard of . But if you ask me what I value most in a friend , I would have to say honesty .
I agree . You can't expect a close relationship with a dishonest person . Those are the people that will turn their back on you when you are in need .
How much for these autographed Elvis records ?
Thirty bucks a record . Or five for one hundred and twenty bucks .
Uh , I'm not sure . Are these all in good condition ?
Absolutely . I bought them from the King's estate myself ! Tell you what-I'll let you have five for one hundred bucks .
I don't really need five .
OK . Five for eighty-five bucks . That's my final offer .
Hello . My name is John Sandals , and I've got a reservation .
May I see some identification , sir , please ?
Sure . Here you are .
Thank you so much . Have you got a credit card , Mr . Sandals ?
I sure do . How about American Express ?
Unfortunately , at the present time we take only MasterCard or VISA .
No American Express ? Okay , here's my VISA .
Thank you , sir . You'll be in room 507 , nonsmoking , with a queen-size bed . Do you approve , sir ?
Yeah , that'll be fine .
I'd like to reserve a table for two , please .
For what time , sir ?
Around 8: 30 p . m .
May I have your name please , sir ?
Yes , Anthony Fox .
Who's the woman you talked to just now ?
She's the one who saved the life of my son at the beach last year .
Guess what , Gilly ? I won both bids .
Good for you . Did you use Paypal ?
Yeah . It was so easy and super-fast , once I figured it out .
That's the beauty of it , and the danger .
I should get the items within a week . But in the meantime I'm bidding on a digital video camera .
How much ?
Thirty U . S . dollars ... and it's only been used for six months .
I'm here to open a Current Account with your bank .
That's no problem at all , but could you fill in this and I'll need to see some ID .
Here you go . Is there a minimum amount I need to pay in ?
Yes , there needs to be at least 1 RIB paid in to open a new account . Also , you will need to choose a secret identity code to ensure no one else can enter your account .
OK , how long does it need to be ? I'm not very good with remembering long numbers .
Could you do me a favor ?
What is it ?
Could you possibly give me a lift home ?
All right .
Are you sure ? I don't want to inconvenience you .
No problem . I'd be happy to .
Is Betty Sue in her office ?
I ' m sorry . She ' s in a meeting right now .
I see .
Can I give her a message for you ?
Yes , please tell her I stopped by .
And your name , please ?
Ted . Oh , and could you give her this document for me ?
Didn't you say you were planning a trip to China ? I heard the northwest and north of China are experiencing severe sandstorms !
I was planning to go to Beijing first and then go to northwest China ! Looks like I'm in trouble .
Definitely . I heard Beijing was experiencing seven degree strong winds ! That is nearly a record high !
No way ! I don't think I've ever encountered winds that strong ! Are the storms affecting land and air transportation ?
Absolutely ! I don't think any planes are going anywhere . The sand being blown around has cut visibility in Beijing to less than 100 meters . But inseems Gansu Province is being hit the hardest .
That's exactly where I was planning to go !
Please switch work shifts with me .
I would if I could .
Why can't you ?
One of my students told me she was very depressed today .
Why ?
Her father is dying .
Oh , that ' s very sad .
Yeah , she ' s broken up about it , poor kid .
What did you do ?
I talked to her for a while , but she ' s really depressed . So , I made an appointment with the school counselor for her .
That ' s a good idea . The counselor is a psychologist . He ' s better trained to handle these sorts of things .
Yeah , that ' s what I told her . I ' m glad she ' s reaching out for help , instead of trying to deal with this on her own .
Today is the old couple ' s golden wedding .
That must be a long love story .
Yeah . They promised to stick together forever when they were young .
They have made it . Will our love last 50 years ?
Welcome to Lincoln Bank . How may we be of service ?
Hi . We'd like to open a Foreign Currency Account , please .
OK , do you have the relevant materials ?
Yes , yes , we do . Right here .
Right . You have a choice of account , we provide USD , HAD , JOY and GAP accounts . Which do you want to go for ?
We will go for the US dollar account .
I was wondering if someone in your office could help me with a question I have about my payment .
I would be happy to answer any questions you might have .
My paycheck seems to be smaller than the one I received last week .
What about income ? Did you make any money during that period ?
My old employer gave us a couple days of work during that period .
When you filled out your Continued Claim Form , did you show that income ?
Of course I wrote down the work that I had done on the Continued Claim Form .
What happens is , when you make money , we take part of your benefits away .
I am not going to show any income from now on then .
Excuse me , What time does the next bus for Boston leave ?
It leaves at 8
I see . Are there any seat available ?
Just a moment please . Yes . You can have a seat .
Good . How much is it when we take it ?
It thirty-eight dollars .
All right . Here ' s forty dollars .
Here ' s your ticket and change .
Thank you . Which gate should I go to for the bus ?
Go to gate No . 2 please .
Thank you very much .
Can I make preservation now ?
Sure . At what time ?
9:45 , please . We want a table next to the window .
I am sorry , sir . We are booked until 9:10 .
I don't know if you remember , but with honest every day last year we tided the knot .
Of course I remember , actually , I am very surprised you remembered , I thought for sure you would forget .
How could I ever forget ? I even bought you roses because I love you .
They are so beautiful . I love them , and I love you too .
You are more beautiful than the roses .
I don't know how , but I love you more than the day we gotta married .
Yes , we are match made in heaven .
I know of the past years we have faced and shared troubles , but we survived and here we are .
Yes , we did , we did have problems , but we shared a lot of happiness too . We countered the problems , and had a lot of happiness too .
Yes we did .
I love you , happy anniversary .
Have you taken the written test yet ?
No , I haven't .
You should study before you take it .
I have been studying .
Why don't you take the test ?
Do you know if it costs any money to take it ?
Since you already paid for your permit , you don't have to pay again .
All right . Do you know if the test covers the whole book ?
No , the test skips a lot of things in the book .
Did you pass it the first time that you took it ?
No , I didn't , because it was pretty hard .
why are you so upset today , Maria ? Cheer up !
oh , Iris , it ' s about the job with the PR company .
it ' s a great opportunity . You should be happy with the offer .
but my mother won ' t allow me to accept any part-time job . I ' m afraid she will say no again .
why ? It ' s unfair . You can learn a lot from it .
she says a part-time job is cursed blessing . It takes so much time and energy that I won ' t be able to focus on my studys .
that may be true . But I ' m sure you ' re able to find a balance between them . Why not try it ?
I turned down quite a few offers before for her sake . But I ' m a senior now , I don ' t want to miss the chance this time .
I agree with you but I think you really need to talk to your mother and tell her what's on your mind .
I ' ll try , but what if she insists ?
just let her know that the experience will be both amazing and rewarding . And more importantly , you can manage both your study and the job .
do you think it will work ?
sure . Every cloud has its silver lining . Just try .
ok , I ' ll do that . Thank you , Iris .
It's said you will go abroad to pursue your graduate studies .
Yes , I've been thinking about visiting you . I hope to get some advice from you .
Which country do you want to go to ?
My field is electronic engineering . Which country do you think I should go ?
Were I in your position , I ' d go to America .
Which university should I apply to ?
There are many universities for you to choose from . Some famous universities such as Harvard , Yale , the University of Michigan , and Massachusetts Institute of Technology are really wonderful places to study , but they are very competitive and expensive . Some smaller universities or institutes are also very nice but much cheaper .
Does this bus go to Fisherman's Wharf ?
Yes .
Oh , good . Transfer , please .
Sure .
Please let me know when we get there .
It sounds like you're from out of town .
As a matter of fact , I'm from Taiwan .
I'm sure you'll like Fisherman's Wharf . It's a popular tourist spot . Be sure to try the seafood there .
It's a lovely day , isn't it ?
Yes , the weather sure is nice today .
I love it when the weather is like this . Why don't we sit down outside and have our lunch ?
That sounds like a good idea . The sky is clear , the sun is shining and there's a nice cool breeze , so it is not too hot .
I really miss the change of seasons like we have in Colorado ; but I must admit , this sure is a nice spring day .
Hey , this spot in the shade looks really comfortable .
Okay . Hey , is that a dark cloud over there ? Do you think it will rain after all ?
I don't think so . I say the weather report last night , and it said the weather should be fine all day .
Paul , is this Paul , isn't it ?
Well , well , Mike . Fancy meeting you here .
Small world , isn't it ?
Hey Jack . How's it going ?
I'm falling in love .
What ! With who ?
That girl in my econ class . She is so hot .
Did you guys go on a date already ?
No . I didn't even talk to her yet . But I think I'm in love .
Does she have a boyfriend ?
I don't think so . I've been following her around campus and I haven't seen another guy .
Dude , you're a stalker man . Just ask her on a date .
I plan on running into her in the cafeteria when she's alone . I think I'll ask her then .
So why do you think you're in love ?
She's the only thing I can think of all day long .
That's called blind love . Well , I gotta run . Tell me how it goes next week .
I would like to make an offer on this house , but I don ' t know much about the process .
As your realtor , I am here to take care of this process . How much were you planning on offering ?
I really like the house and will pay the full asking price of three hundred and fifty thousand dollars .
We want to leave ourselves some bargaining room . Let ' s offer three hundred and twenty thousand dollars .
That sounds good , but I don ' t want this house to get away from me .
The market is fairly down right now , so the offer is a realistic one .
When will we know if they accept the offer ?
The owners usually respond to an offer within a few days .
Should I be contacting my bank in the meantime ?
So , Is this your first time to TAIWAN ?
No , I first came here 1995 .
Oh , really ? And you are from the State , right ?
Well , I am from Canada . Actually .
Oh , I am so sorry .
Hey , Jenny . Would you like to go to dinner with me ?
I don't know . You know what they say about office romances .
No , I don't . What do they say about office romances ?
They say you shouldn't mix love and work .
That's silly . What I do on my own time is no one else ' s business . Besides , it's pretty hard to meet people outside of the office when we spend long hours here .
You ' Ve got a point . Once I dated one of my supervisors and all of my co-workers accused him of favoritism . Then when the relationship went bad , he fired me .
People fall in love with people they work with . That's a fact .
That may be true , but I don't want an inter-office relationship to affect my productivity .
If it does , it will only make you more productive , because we can support each other .
You are sounding like we are already married .
Good grief . All I did was ask you out . I am sorry .
Well , I don't feel right about it .
I am talking about dinner tonight , not a lifetime .
Most starts with dinner , but then it gets out of hand . Besides , haven't you asked out every woman in the entire office ?
I like company .
Company ? I heard about you from Linda . She said you were an octopus !
What can I say ? I am a passionate guy .
Well , I hope you can find something else to be passionate about .
You want to go out with me and you know it .
In your dreams . Now if you don't mind , I've got some work to do .
I ' d like to buy these shoes .
O . K . Let me see . That will be $ 104 . 99 .
The price tag says $ 99 . 99 .
Yes , miss , but there is a five percent sales tax in Maryland .
Oh , of course . How silly of me to forget .
No problem . How would you like to pay for these ?
I think I have the cash . Let me check . Yes , here you are .
$ 110 . 00 , your change is $ 5 . 01 . Thanks very much .
This is a good basic computer package . It's got a good CPU , 256 megabytes of RAM , and a DVD player .
Does it come with a modem ?
Yes , it has a built-in modem . You just plug a phone line into the back of the computer .
How about the monitor ?
A 15 - inch monitor is included in the deal . If you want , you can switch it for a 17 - inch monitor , for a little more money .
You have made a poor meal . Let me get you some more fish .
No , thanks . I have had enough .
What about some drink ?
I am really impressed with your presentation skills .
Thank you . I have been working on it for several years .
Well , your time has been well spent !
It also helps that I have strong team members , such as yourself . You really know your stuff !
Wow , Amy , look at that number .
What's so great about it ?
What do you mean ? It's a scrim .
Not to me , I wouldn't be caught dead in that .
I love that kind of stuff .
Yeah , you seem to like those styles .
Sure do . I get a kick out of looking punk .
This one looks really expensive though .
I don't care how much it costs . I'm rolling in it .
Lucky you ! I can't buy anything else . I'm flat broke .
I got a replace my party outfit , I trashed it last week .
Why did you drag me into this ? I've spent a week salary .
Are you on the level ? You're the one who called me , remember ?
What is that you have there ?
Aah ! Close your eyes . You aren't supposed to see this .
Ah ha ! I caught you . Just let me peek . I won't tell anyone .
You can't peek ! This is a surprise .
How about one little hint ?
Here's one little hint . If you don't go out right now , this won't be under the tree .
That's a very good hint .
Our neighbour ' s tape recorder is so loud that it annoys us to death . I ' Ve made up my mind to cut the electricity off .
What ? That would be to cut off your nose to spite your face .
Then what shall we do ?
I don ' t understand why you always look so happy , so energetic . It seems like you ' Ve got good news everyday .
Really ? Do I look happy all the time ?
All I know is you look quite differently from other teachers .
Oh , do you know why ? Actually , it ' s easy . Because I always exercise . My exercise , I think , is very hard . I often feel very good after conquering these difficulties . I feel alive !
Oh , I know . I saw you doing pull-ups one time on the campus and some students trying to imitate you .
Yeah , they are doing it for fun . Seldom would people like my exercise . It ' s difficult and boring .
It ' s true . Many students do the exercise when they have to . We have P . E . once a week .
But I think Chinese students need to exercise more . Besides exercise will help them learn new things better . Don ' t students want to have a good memory ?
Of course . I didn ' t know that . I only know exercise makes bodies stronger . I should take some exercise then . Do you have any suggestions ?
Well , do what you like to do . It can be anything . Jogging , doing aerobics , going bicycling , and playing ping-pong . Absolutely anything . Doing three or more workouts a week is good for you . But remember to do some stretches first .
I ' m so frustrated !
what ' s wrong , Jim ?
I called the electronics shop to find out what time they close , and it took me twenty minutes to get what I wanted !
Twenty minutes just to find out what their business hours are ?
yes . They have some sort of digital receptionist . So when I called in , a machine told me to push a button for the department I wanted to be transferred to .
Oh , I hate getting voicemail instead of a person . What did you do ?
I just kept pushing buttons . I was transferred to customer service , but there a machine told me to choose between technical help , warranty information , or price information .
Couldn ' d you choose to be transferred to a real person ?
Poor Danny . You are so enfeebled !
Don't worry . No big deal . Just a common cold .
Mom called just now saying that she and Dad will be back later . Do you want to speak to them on phone ?
No . You can never count on the grown-ups when there is something .
Whatever . Have a drink of water .
Come on , sister . This is the seventh glass already .
Maybe later . I think we have a medicine-kit .
Do we ? Where is it ?
Probably on the of the cabinet . I'll go and get it .
Be careful . Now I have no one but you to depend on .
Oh , here it is . Patulin . Oh , no !
What's the new strike ?
Keep lying down . The matter is that all the medicine here is past expiration .
My goodness . She is thirty seconds faster than the world records in five thousand meters race .
Excuse me . What did you say ?
A chinese girl have broken the world record in the Olympic Games
That's incredible . I cann't believe it .
You have to . It's sure .
Have you any beef today ?
Yes , we've got a very tender new shipment from the mainland . It is a weekend special .
How much is it a pound ?
One pound and fifty pence a pound .
Good . I'll get three pounds of it .
Good morning , Madam . Can I help you ?
Yes , I ' Ve come to inquire about a 6,000- dollar remittance from California . Has it arrived ?
May I have your name , please ?
My name is Jenny Clinton .
I see . Wait for a moment please . I am sorry , Mrs . Clinton , but the remittance doesn't appear to have arrived yet .
Really ? It should have arrived . It was sent a week ago .
If the money was sent by cable , it would have taken about one or two days . But if it was sent by airmail , it would take at least one week .
Well , then I'll come again the day after tomorrow .
Or would you like us to phone you when the money arrives ?
That would be very kind of you .
Could you please tell me your phone number , so we'll give you a ring as soon as the remittance has arrived ?
The phone number is 328 6765 extension 105 .
Hello , this is Helen speaking .
Hello , Helen . This is John . How are you ?
Fine , thank you . And you ?
Fine , thanks . I ' ll have a party next Sunday at home . I ' m calling to ask whether you can come or not .
Oh , how wonderful . I ' ll be glad to .
Okay , now you are a famous star .
Hum , don ' t say that . Maybe you can do something useful for me .
What ' s wrong with you ?
I ' ll tell you at the party .
I was wondering if you could go over the services available at EDD to help me get a job .
The best opportunity is called callous , which is an Internet-based job placement service that you can make use of .
Do I have to have a computer at home ?
There are computers at our EDD offices for you to use in your job search .
Do you have any other services available ?
We have information available about the job market as well as workshops .
What kinds of workshops are available at the EDD ?
We have workshops in Resume Writing and Interviewing , to name a few .
Are there other places , outside of EDD , that I may look for work ?
What arrangement will you make about payment ?
We shall open an irrevocable L / C to cover our shipment from Shanghai to Hamburg . Is it at sight or after sight ?
At sight of course .
Some customers demand that 80 % of the credit amount be paid at sight , and the rest be paid after the machines are proved satisfactory on trial .
I am afraid that can't be done . We have never done business on such terms .
But such terms are quite common in the machinery trade . Other suppliers are offering better terms . Some even allow payment 60days after sight .
We ask for full payment at sight , because we guarantee 90 % mechanical efficiency for all our products . You don't have the same guarantee from other suppliers . The usual percentage is around 85 .
That's true . I'm eager to know if you could send some fitters to ensure good operation .
Yes . We usually send technicians abroad to offer after-sales service to our customers .
If you send fitters along with the machines to ensure that all the machines run properly , and if you provide after-sales service , we agree to make the payment in full .
I'm afraid I spilled coffee on the tablecloth .
Oh , never mind . I am just going to do the laundry today .
I want to apologize . Is there anything can do for you ?
I went to Super Junior's concert last night . It was fantastic .
Really ? Their songs are very popular all round Asia now . I am also a big fan of theirs .
Yes , their new album just came out last week . It is number one on the billboard .
I really love their dancing . They are all excellent dancers .
The lyrics of the new song are beautiful , too . Can you sing ?
Sure . I think you can hear the song everywhere you go now .
Let's go buy their new album . Want to come with me ?
How do you do ? I ' m Parker .
How do you do ? Mr . Barker .
Parker .
Oh , Parker with a P ?
Yes , with a P .
Er ... I ' m Barker .
Barker ? With a B . Of course .
Yes , with a B .
Won ' t you come in , Mr . Barker ?
wow , the duck looks so delicious . Should we order it , Rick ?
the chef is going to slice it into thin pieces . There will be around one hundred and twenty pieces of both skin and meat for each .
I see . The chef is so skillful with his knife .
absolutely . It is said that they serve 3,000 ducks every day .
incredible . By the way , what are these in the plates ?
oh , they are pancakes , hollowed sesame buns , scallions , cucumbers and oisin sauce . I will show you how to make one .
thank you . I couldn't wait any longer to have a taste .
Just roll it up and have a bite , Amy .
oh , it's terrific . I love the floor . Can you tell me how it was prepared ?
certainly . First , a Beijing duck is specially selected . After it is cleaned and dressed , it will be roasted in an open oven . Only wood of fruit trees are used to fuel the fire to give the duck a unique
it sounds really complicated . No wonder it tastes so great .
Why are you all dressed up ?
Good afternoon , Miss Tao . Please sit down .
Good afternoon , Mr . Black . Thank you very much .
I ' Ve read your application materials with interest . Now I want to ask you a few questions , if you don ' t mind .
As you please . I ' m ready .
The first is why you choose our company ?
I think yours is a well-known advertising company , so I ' m sure to get opportunities to display my talent in advertisement .
Why do you want to quit your present company ?
Well , the company has some financial problems . People there are all thinking of quitting .
Well , when do you think you can come over to work ?
One week after I have submitted my resignation paper .
When you start to work , I ' ll give you $ 3,000 a month .
Excuse me , could you lend me some of your records ?
Until when ?
Until Monday or Tuesday next week .
What do you say to eating out , Maggie ?
Yeah , why not ? We haven't been out for dinner for quite a long time . A new French restaurant has just opened in our neighborhood . We can go there .
Do we need to book a table in advance ?
No need for that . It's not usually busy on weekdays .
What time shall we go ?
Hi , Alan . I feel very nervous because I am going to have a job interview next Monday . Could you please give me some suggestions ?
Sure . Firstly , it is very important for you to be punctual . Interviewers usually don ' t think much of a candidate who comes 5 or 10 minutes late only to explain that he could not find the place or he was stuck in traffic .
Yeah , that is very important .
Secondly , you need to create a good image in a limited time .
I will try my best to make a good impression , but it is always easier said that done .
I think you should make some preparations . For example , you should take care to appear well-groomed and modestly dressed . What ' s more , try to avoid a too causal style .
Can I wear T-shirt and jeans for the job interview ?
You ' d better not . Informal clothes like sports shirts , tom jeans or dirty sneakers convey the impression that you are not serious about the job , or that you may be casual about your work as you are about your clothes .
I really want to get something to eat .
What are you going to get ?
I don't know what I want to eat .
Well , do you want burgers , Chinese food , or Mexican food ?
Chinese food sounds good .
Where are you going to get it from ?
I haven't the slightest idea .
I usually get my Chinese food from Panda Express .
You like Panda Express ?
The food there is actually pretty good .
Maybe I'll go there then .
John , it ' s time to get up .
It can ' t be time to get up yet .
It is . Hurry up ! You ' ll be late for school .
What ' s the time ?
It ' s nearly half past seven .
My watch says ten past .
It ' s slow . Hurry up ! The bus goes at twenty to eight .
Are you sure half past seven ?
Positive . I ' ll put the radio on .
( And here is the seven o ' clock news ) It ' s only seven o ' clock . Your watch is fast .
No , it isn ' t . It ' s stopped . I forgot to wind it up last night .
Hi , dear , I've got your voice at last .
Hi , darling , I am thinking it is the time of your calling .
Are you OK today ?
Quite good except thinking of you so much .
So do I . You are a beautiful flower in my mind .
We've got very good workshop facilities here . We do all our own servicing and most repairs . We have separate areas for welding , grinding and sawing .
Is there anything you don't do in-house ?
Yes . If we don't have the facilities to deal with it here , we send it out for maintenance .
Is that more expensive ?
Switchboard . Which extension would you like ?
Extension 1616 , please .
I'm afraid the line is busy at the moment . Just hold on , please .
Then , will you try extension 235 ?
I'm here to conduct the annual census of foreigners living in Beijing . This is my service ID card .
OK . What do you want to know ?
We only need to verify your information against our records .
OK .
Please show me your passport and Residence Permit .
Here you are .
How long have you been living here ?
Two years .
May I know your occupation ?
I'm a professor at a university .
Is that right ? Which university , if you don't mind my asking ?
I teach at Beijing Normal University , English composition and some conversational classes .
Excuse me , sir . Can I help you ?
I'd be glad to have your help . Could you make the air-conditioner cooler ?
I'm sorry . We can not regulate the air-conditioner . As soon as the plane takes off we'll be able to get better ventilation , and the temperature here will drop . Let me get a wet towel for you at the moment .
Good idea .
Your wet towel , sir .
Thank you . Could I have something cold to drink ?
Yes . We have mineral water , orange juice , coke , which do you prefer ?
Orange juice , please .
Would you like some ice in your drink ?
Yes .
How much would you like ?
One or two cubes will be OK .
Here you are , sir .
I'm awfully sorry to have bothered you .
It's my pleasure .
What type of movies do you like ?
I like all sorts of movies , primarily drama and science fiction .
That's an interesting combination . How about western movies ?
Western and horror are the two types of movies I don't care for .
Why don't you like horror ? They're entertaining .
Some are entertaining , but I find most of them stupid and childish . For example , I don't understand why a person always goes into the house alone when something is suspicious .
I do feel like a trip to Florida on such a gloomy day in New York , to enjoy the sunshine while lying on the beaches of Florida .
That's a great idea . It's the best season for tourists in Florida . You can also get a good sun-tan there .
But if the sunshine is too strong , it might damage the eyes and the skin .
You can put on your shades . And remember don't make your skin look like a tomato . Or else after that your skin will begin to flake off . You may even wind up with skin cancer .
I see . Overdoing it will do more harm than good .
I find that every employee here respects that manager very much .
Oh , my god !
What !
That's the cutest little doll I've ever seen in my life !
Chill out . It's just Kenny from South Park .
What park ? You found a doll in a park ? Gross !
South Park is a popular cartoon . You're so out of it , Jen
Something's wrong with my computer .
What's the problem ?
My computer won't turn on .
Did you see if all the connections are right ?
I'm not sure I understand what you mean .
The connections between your CPU and your outlet .
Is that what's stopping my computer from turning on ?
If your plugs aren't connected all the way , the computer won't turn on .
I had no idea .
Why don't you try it and see what happens ?
I'll try it right now .
Where's Bob ?
It seems like he's not coming .
Can you give him a call on his mobile ?
Hi , Cindy . I thought I ' d missed you .
Oh , I am very sorry , Hans . Thank you for waiting for me . You must have been here a long time already .
It ' s all right .
I was caught in the heavy rain , or I would have come earlier . I am sorry I kept you waiting .
I was in a comfortable place , so really , it ' s no problem . I am happy to see you . Did the rain hold you up long ?
Yes . When I came out of the subway , it was raining cats and dogs . And I forgot my umbrella . So I had to wait for the rain to let up .
Hello Bill , what's new ?
Bob and Mary are back together .
I'm glad to hear it .
Hello , this is Julie from Google Corp . Is that Jin Lili ?
Yes , this is Jin Lili . What can I do for you
I am calling to impart the news that you are supposed to have an interview .
There is too much static on the line .
I said that you are supposed to have an interview .
How are you tonight , sir ?
Oh , not too bad . I'm just glad the weekend's finally here .
I know what you mean . What can I get for you ?
Give me a screwdriver on the rocks .
One screwdriver , coming right up . ( He mixes the drink . ) Here you are , sir .
Do you know that working overtime in some companies is a regular thing ?
How regular ?
An average ten hours or more a day according to a survey , the worst thing is that the employees get no pay for that .
You are kidding me ? It is against the labor law . They should be aware of their rights .
But these people say nothing about that . They are worried about losing their job because there is surplus in labor force these days .
Hello , this is Lucy from ABC Company .
Hello , Lucy .
I'm calling to see if you have made your decision . You are the right person we are seeking for .
Yes , I have decided to work with your company .
Good news for us . When can you start to work ?
It's my honor to be one member of your company . I'd like to begin to work any time as you like .
Ok , please come to my office at 9 AM next Monday . I will introduce you to our boss .
No problem . Thank you for calling me .
Could I trouble you for a minute , Mr . Graham ?
Sure , Emily . How can I help you ?
I would like to leave a few minutes early today . Would that be all right ?
Excuse me . My name is Richard Davis of Magic Office Supplies . I'm here to see Mr . Chen .
I think I'm going to go to the market today .
Do we need food ?
Yeah , I think so .
What are you going to get ?
I'm not sure what we need .
Maybe you should go and look in the refrigerator .
Could you do it for me , and write out a list of things that we need ?
Just get the basics .
Like what ?
You know . Get some eggs , milk , and bread .
Just go and make a list for me , please .
How are you doing today ?
I ' m fine .
What can I do for you ?
I would like to cancel a check .
Is there a problem ?
I wrote the check out for too much .
How much did you write it out for ?
I wrote it out for $ 150 .
How much was it supposed to be ?
It was supposed to be for $ 100 .
I ' ll cancel that check for you .
We used to be very friendly , but it seems now that my daughter ' s marriage has taken its toll of our relationship .
What do you mean ?
I don ' t like her husband , that bad egg , but my daughter insists on marrying him .
She is a grow-up . She can make her own decision .
I like pop music very much .
What ?
I said I like pop music very much . It ' s so lovely .
I really need to go shopping .
What do you need to buy ?
I need to look for a new bedroom set .
Where are you going to go look for one ?
I have absolutely no idea .
You don't know where you want to look for one ?
No , I'm not sure where they sell nice bedroom sets .
Do you want to know where I got mine from ?
Yes , because I love yours .
I purchased mine from IKEA .
Is IKEA affordable ?
So , Casey , how are things going with the photos for the press kit ?
Yeah , I ' Ve been meaning to talk to you about that . I might need to ask for an extension on that deadline .
You ' Ve had over a month to get this finalized ! Why are things delayed ?
Well , the thing is , we ran into a lot of problems . . .
I ' m not looking for excuses here . I just want to get this finished on time !
I know , and I apologize for the delay . But some things were just beyond my control . I had trouble booking the photographer , and then Michael was sick for three weeks , so I couldn ' t include him in the photos , and the design team lost all the files , so I had to re-do the pictures .
morning . Phyllis Seymour speaking .
Hi , Ms . Seymour ? It ' s Allan Parker . I ' Ve been waiting to call you and thank you for all your help last week .
Thank you very much , Mr . Parker . But , that is my job .
I went to Rotes ' , you know , Edith Roth is the author of a book about moths .
Is she ? I thought she was a mathematician .
I ' m so thirsty .
Are you ? I thought you had something to drink at her home .
No . Edith didn ' t give anything to drink .
I ' ll buy you a drink .
You're right . Watching movies at home is way cheaper than going to the theater , too . I like downloading movies too because it's easy and fast .
I agree . And it's very convenient .
Have you ever heard of a movie rental company called Netflix ? They send the movies directly to your house in the mail .
Really ? That's great ! I'm going to try that next time .
Hey John , did you register for classes yet ?
I register this Friday .
What classes do you plan on taking ?
I really want to take the communication class , but I don't know if it will be available .
Is that class really that popular ?
Yeah . I tried to get in last semester , but it was full by the time I registered .
What other classes are you going to take ?
I still need to take English 201 , but I really don't like writing .
I took that class already . There is a lot of writing , but it's not that bad .
Oh really ? Who was the instructor ? There are like 4 different instructors to choose from .
I had Professor Mahoney .
Is he an easy grader ?
I'm not sure if he is or not , but I thought he was definitely fair .
Do you mind if I ask you what you got ?
Not at all . I got a 3 . 8 .
Well , what did you get in English 101 last year ?
I got a 4 . 0 in that class .
Well , I can't compare to you . I got a 3 . 1 in English 101 . That means if you got a lower grade in English 201 , it must be harder .
It's not what it appears . I actually tried harder in the 101 class . If I put as much effort into the 201 class , I would have received the same grade .
Room service . Can I help you ?
This is room 1019 . I would like to order breakfast .
What would you like , sir ?
One orange juice , scrambled eggs with bacon , toast and coffee .
It will take about 20 minutes , sir . Is that all right ?
Yes , it is . Oh , by the way , could you also bring me today's paper ?
I was wondering how you are going to calculate our final grades .
Grades are based on many things
What counts the most ?
Actually I look at all of it and let's not forget class participation .
Do you grade on a curve or use percentages ?
Homework , attendance , and quizzes are sixty percent ; the mid-term and final are worth twenty percent each .
What if we miss something ?
I will allow one unexcused absence ; after that you need to contact me ahead of time .
Will you tell us if we are failing during the year ?
Uncle , have a heart , please lend your new car to me . Only once .
Where are you going ?
I have a big date tonight .
You have got a car , haven ' t you ?
Have you heard that Mel Gibson was arrested by the police last week ?
No , not yet . Why ?
For suspicion of driving under influence .
How come it is slow as a snail today ?
You mean the network connection ?
Yes , I wanted to look for some information on the company page just now . It took me almost one minute to open it . Then there is no response to any click .
I have the same question . I can ' t send out mails . We ' d better call the IT department and ask them to check it immediately .
Is there a bookstore near here ?
Yes , it's straight ahead around the corner .
What upsets you ?
My parents called . As usual , they reminded me again that I should have a plan to marry by my late 20s . Easier set than done . Who should I marry ? I have no time to go on a date .
It is not your mother finding one for you ?
I will find one myself , of course . I ' m a modern girl .
Perhaps you can try the three minutes date , the latest type .
You mean dozens of the opposite sex meet each other for three minutes in a dimly bar serving alcohol , I hate that idea .
No , there is an updated version , three minutes video date . I know an online dating website providing such service with a microphone and webcam , you can sigh for it . You can be face-to-face with a guy talking for maximum three minutes .
I don ' t think it makes sense . Three minutes is such a short time .
I think you can find out if there is a possibility of romance within the first second of meeting someone , so-called love at first sight .
Anyway , I don ' t want to post my face up for sale on the internet like that .
Don ' t worry . There are many other options using the internet as dating methods . Some sites operate at international standard even have got certifications .
Of course , for these sites , you have to pay a membership fee . But all in all , it is more serious and professional . The chance of meeting a good and serious person who does not play games is higher .
I suppose you like cinematography and costumes and that sort of stuff ?
Yes , I do . The look of a picture is very important .
I think sound is even more important ! Guns , bombs , sirens--that's what makes a movie exciting !
You wouldn't know a good movie even if it bit you on the nose .
In my book , all a good movie needs is a chase scene and lots of things that blow up .
Hello , let me introduce myself . I'm your neighbor . My name is Shirley .
Hi , Shirley . I'm Sophie . It's nice to meet you .
Nice to meet you , too .
Please come in .
Here is a little gift for your family . It's a calendar with all the community events on it . I hope it can be helpful .
I really appreciate it .
Since we are neighbors , if you need any help or anything , please come to me .
I will . Actually , I am worried so much about the security of this community because my house has been burgled twice before .
Oh , don't worry about that here . There are security guards on duty 24 hours a day and they patrol all over the neighborhood . You know , they are all very strong .
Really ? That's good . Is there any supermarket in our neighborhood ?
Of course . There is a Carrefour near the neighborhood . I'll show you there if you want to .
That's terrific !
By the way , a party will be held for new neighbors the day after tomorrow . I hope I can see you there .
I ran into a glass door yesterday .
Listen , Karen , I need your help . I don't know anyone here yet .
I'm glad to help you . What's wrong ?
My mother-in-law just went into the hospital in L . A . Hank and I will be flying there tonight .
I'm sorry to hear it . What's wrong with her ?
Doctors aren't sure yet . But the real problem is Suzy . She has a bad cold , and we don't want to take her with us . But we don't know who can stay with her .
You need a babysitter .
Yes , I'd ask Jill , the girl I've had before , but I need someone overnight . Maybe even for two nights .
I could have Suzy stay at my place .
I don't want to do that to you , Karen .
Why not ?
Your own kids would get Suzy's cold . I think it would be better to have a good babysitter here . But I don't know who to ask . I need someone more mature than Jill . It might even be for two or three days .
I know who we can ask . There is a girl I know , Sara Ralston . She is 17 , and she will usually take this kind of job . I know her from my church , and I trust her completely .
I'd like to talk with her . This is short notice , I know . But Hank and I are leaving tonight .
I'll get you her number . I hope she can do it . She is very responsible .
I'm glad you know someone . I knew you would be the best person to ask about this . I don't want to insult Jill or her mother . I think Jill maybe could do it . But I'd rather have someone a little older .
I'll go home and get Sara's number . I'll call her first myself .
You don ' t look like enjoying this workout .
I ' m not crazy about it at all .
You don ' t like this sort of exercise ?
I ' m not interested in it . Are you keen on it ?
Yes , that ' s funny . I thought you liked it .
I hate it .
Never mind . It ' ll be over in 10 minutes .
Hey , what are you doing here ?
I'm just shopping .
What are you shopping for ?
Some new clothes . How about you ?
Same here .
Have you found anything nice yet ?
I found a few pairs of pants .
Where'd you get those ?
I found them at Pennies .
Those are really cute .
Do you want me to show you where I found them ?
Hello , this is Garry Hao . I am calling to inquire the position of English interpreter .
Well , it is still open . Where did you graduate from .
I graduated from the Beijing Foreign Studies University . My major is English Translation and Interpretation .
It sounds great . I will arrange an interview tomorrow . Can you come tomorrow ?
Good afternoon . Is there a vacant room here ?
What do you want , a single or a double one ?
A single , preferably with a bath .
How long do you intend to stay ?
For four days or so .
We have one single room on the fifth floor .
I hope it's quiet . I hate noise .
It's very quiet , sir .
How much does it cost per day ?
It's 150 yuan per day including a 10 % service charge .
All right . I'll take the room .
Would you please fill in the registration form ?
OK .
As a hotel policy , we require one day's room charge as a deposit for guests without reservation .
No problem . Here you are .
Hi , Carlos . What are you doing this afternoon ?
Working . Why ?
Well . I was just wondering if you would come by and give me a hand with the fliers for next week ' s party .
Hello , Dora , I haven't seen you for a long time . Where have you been ?
I didn ' t go anywhere . I stayed at home .
What's up ? You look unhappy .
Nothing . I just feel very lonely in this city . I miss my family .
Oh , I know . Sometimes I have the same feeling with you . But you'd better not be so emotional .
Can you stay and accompany me for a while ?
Sure , no problem . You can call me any time you are alone from now on .
Thank you so much . You are so sweet .
Tomorrow is Halloween , I know I'm ready . I bought two pumpkins and a big bags of candy . Do you want to help me a jack-o-lantern ?
I'd love to . I heard about Halloween when I was in Beijing . It's kind of a children's day . Small kids get dressed up , then walk around with paper bags or baskets , knocking on the neighbor's
They are supposed to say trick or treat ? Then the neighbors are supposed to hand up the candy .
That's kind of cool . But what's the trick mean ?
Usually it's the older kids going around playing Halloween , like punching the pumpkins left outside people's doors or - - someone's tree . They usually do it late at night after little kids go
That sounds kind of fun , maybe I can get tighter with my friends that night .
Usually be adults , you don't have kids have a big party in get dressed up too .
DO you have any plan for your future ?
I'd prefer to go abroad , if possible .
Many people are striving for going abroad nowadays . It seems to be a trend .
have you adapted to the lifestyle in China ?
yeah , almost . But there is one thing .
what ?
I still wonder what privacy meant for Chinese people . I don't mean to say that there's no privacy in China , but ...
what is it ?
some of my Chinese colleagues just share their personal stories in front of others .
that makes you feel uncomfortable ?
yeah . we never do that in a public office .
perhaps that's because we hold different ideas about privacy .
i have felt that . One day when i was in a queue , reading a newspaper story , the man behind me peered through my shoulder and stared at the newspaper I was holding .
well , that's not rare . I've seen people reading at others ' newspaper while taking a metro or a bus .
just stare at the newspaper holding in the hands of the one next to him ?
yeah .
What are you doing over the weekend , Sara ?
I'm planing to go balling tonight . Tomorrow I was hoping to see a movie . What about you ?
I want to go camping , you know , just get a way for the weekend . I'm not sure I'll be able to , though .
Why not ?
Oops !
What happened ?
I overcooked the corn .
Hello , Jack here .
Hello , Jack . It's Mary . What are you doing in your office ?
I am working . I often work late on Thursdays . I am busy this week .
Would you like to come and have dinner with us on Friday ?
Tomorrow ? No , I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to . I'm going out of the town on business .
What about Saturday ?
Sorry , I never go out on Saturday evening . I always watch football on Saturday evening .
Will you come round next Tuesday ?
Next Tuesday ? Just a moment ! It will be the 21st of May . Oh , dear . Arm ... I promised my aunt I would be at her birthday party .
What do you say to next Wednesday then ?
Let me see . Yes , Mary . Let's make it next Wednesday .
Ok . Bye .
Tommy played truant today . His teacher called me this morning .
Where did he go ?
I've asked him , but he won't tell me . What should we do about this ? He is like you . I remember when we were at the college , you always skipped classes .
Like me ? But you see I am so successful now . And if he is really like me , he will be more successful than me in the future .
Stop , stop ... We are talking about our son's attendance for classes and his study . Maybe we could give him a little bit money to pay to go to school .
Pay him ? But he studies for himself , not for you or for me or for anybody else . I got an idea . You should send him to class every morning and after the class begins , you can go to work .
In that way , I'll be late every day . How about letting him go to school on school bus ?
That's a good idea . Why have I never thought of that ?
Is there anything I can do for you ?
I want to have a two-day trip around the city .
Would you please have a look at the table ? I think this one fits you .
It's interesting . I think I will take the bus tour . By the way , what about the lodging ?
Okay Rebecca , well I think you ' Ve given me a clear impression of your positive qualities , but let ' s talk a little bit about your weaknesses .
Okay , well it ' s always more difficult to describe them isn ' t it ?
Definitely , but if you had to pinpoint one weakness what would it be ?
Well as I mentioned before , I do tend to get frustrated if I don ' t see progress in my work or career . I suppose I ' m quite a restless character . My father always taught me to be a high achiever .
So would you say if things don ' t go your way at work it could easily get you down ?
Well , in a way yes . But I must say that even if I ' m not completely happy in my work I always give 110 % I would never shirk my responsibilities . I suppose sometimes I expect too much too soon .
Well , you know journalism is a highly competitive world , so you do need to keep pushing yourself it ' s true . Okay , well let ' s move on to talk about the job position here , shall we ?
That one looks pretty big . Are you going to keep it ?
Of course . I always keep what I catch .
Not me . I like to throw back what I catch .
Merry Christmas , sweetie . How's your brother enjoying Taiwan ?
Ryan says he wants to stay . I think he's in love with some girl who designs fruit platters ...
No ! Christmas without him is bad enough . So , honey , do you have cold feet yet ?
Yeah , especially since Jack didn't take care of the plane reservations .
You're not coming ?
Not until the 31st . So can you change the church reservations ?
I'm afraid not . The church is booked until the year 2001 .
Then where will we have the ceremony ? At home ?
We'll have to . We'll rehearse on the 1st and have the wedding on the 2nd .
I'm sorry , Mom .
Don't worry , dear . I'm a great host . Now get some rest . Merry Christmas .
Merry Christmas , Mom . I love you .
I love you , too . And forgive Jack . He's doing his best .
Excuse me Miss , my friend is sick .
Is he ? Yes . He looks pale , is there anything I can do for him ?
Yes , please give him some water .
Certainly .
And do you have any medicine for air sickness ?
Well , yes . I ' ll give him the medicine too .
Can I help you in any way ?
I would like to see your summer suits .
How do you like this pattern ? The pink suits you well .
Will it wash well and the color won't fade ?
Mary , how was your date with john ?
it's ok . It seems we have a lot in common .
oh , really . That is great news . What does he look like ?
he is tall and slim , fair-haired .
sounds like he is pretty cute . What do you think of him ?
Can you tell me a little bit about yourself ?
I am a graduate of a technical university and have been employed as a technician with Company # for approximately 10 years .
Please explain why you are interested in leaving your current position and please elaborate on your technical skills .
I am looking for a growth opportunity , which I feel is not available at my current employer . In terms of skills , I am Microsoft certified in Windows XP and several other operating systems .
Where do you see yourself five years from now ?
I was wondering if you could help me use the Student Job Center .
There are many ways ; what kind of job would you like ?
I want to work in a restaurant .
Fine ! Will you need part-time or full-time work ?
I want to work part-time .
Fine , the two best ways are to use our local listings binders over there or you can use the computers with the Internet job listing sites . See them over there ?
Yes , I know what to do .
Well , in addition , you can schedule an appointment with a job counselor on this list . If you would like to do that , sign here , OK ?
Yes , I think that would be great .
John ! Wait a second ! I was just heading downstairs for a cup of coffee . You want to come ? I ' Ve got some good news !
Sure . Let me just grab my wallet . You certainly do look happy this morning .
I am . Don ' t worry about getting your wallet . It ' s my treat .
What kind of packing do you plan to use for this consignment of goods ?
Cartons . Is that okay ?
I'm concerned about the possible jolting , squeezing and collision that may take place when these cases are moved about .
Well , what I can tell you is this . We've got an excellent record on making deliveries to our customers . Besides , all our cartons are lined with shockproof cardboards and are wrapped up with polyethylene sheets . So they're not only shockproof but also dampproof .
In that case , I guess I can rest assured .
Well , I guess you can say that . The safety of packing is something we always pay a lot of attention to . Especially for those fragile commodities , we've got to be extra careful . Otherwise , if the things we don't want to see happened , we would be responsible and that'll cause you a lot of inconvenience , too .
You're right . But wouldn't it be safer to use wooden cases ?
We sure can if you want us to , but the charge will be much higher .
It wouldn't be worth the trouble in that case , would it ? Let's still use cartons .
Belinda , I ' m going to a party tonight . What shall I wear ?
Is it formal or informal ?
I guess it ' s formal .
Then , you should dress well .
That ' s right .
I think a white shirt with a blue tie looks nice on you .
You are smart .
Of course , the sports shoes don ' t go with the formal occasions .
You are right . What kind of shoes should I wear ?
The brown leather shoes go well with your trousers .
Good idea . Oh , by the way , would you please pick me up after the party , honey ?
It ' ll be too late ; you ' d better take a taxi .
My mascara's waterproof !
Oh , how high class ! So you just wear it forever ?
No . There's makeup remover for waterproof mascara .
Is it dry yet ?
Yep . See how long and curly my lashes are ?
They look fake .
Would you like to come to our party ?
I'd like to . But I'm not myself today .
what happened ? You look so pale .
It's the end of the world for me .
What makes you say that ?
Today , I'm told I failed three courses .
Oh , that's too bad . Work harder next term .
I'm such a fool that duplication of effort is only a waste of time to me .
Don't loose heart . Everything will be fine .
I ' m sorry to disturb you , Mr . Crane .
Yes , what is it , William ?
Could you please look over these resumes ? They ' Ve just come in .
Can I help you ?
Yes , do you have any rooms available ?
A single ?
No . I need a double and three triples . My family is waiting for me in the car .
Please fill out this form , sir .
Ok ... Here you are .
Here are your keys . Check out time is noon .
Is breakfast included ?
You look bright-eyed and bushy-tailed .
Of course , just five minutes ago I got the phone call from Future Clothes Company and I was told to start my trial period in that company next Monday .
Congratulations ! Let's get together sometime .
Great idea .
Well , I am worried to death right now ! There is still no news from the company for me .
Let it be ! Time will tell .
Come on ! It's time to go !
Wait a minute ! Just hold your horses ! What's your hurry , anyway ?
Well , I've got to stop and get gas in the car , first .
That won't take long .
Well , it won't if there no line at the pump .
Well , I'm not quite ready .
I'll give you five more minutes , then I'm going on without you !
You wouldn't do a thing like that !
Excuse me , what's the actual flying time from here to Zurich ?
It's about 12 hours .
Can you tell me when we are arriving ?
Let me see ... at 6:15 am local time tomorrow .
Gotcha .
May I see the manager of your office ?
I'm afraid he's having an important meeting now . Can I help you ?
Thank you . I am Fred , coming from Future Clothes Company . I've brought some catalogues of our new series of the summer clothes . I wonder if your manager would like to have a look at them .
Of course , he would . Would you leave them with me ?
We are suppliers of the summer clothes of various styles and colors . I think you will be interested in some of our new products . We always keep the pace of the clothes fashion , so as to catch the interest of our customers .
We're thinking of ordering some special styles of summer clothes . We should be interested in your products if they are of the styles we want .
As you know , we also take orders for clothes made according to specifications .
How long would it take you to deliver the orders ?
Two months at most .
Good . I'll send your catalogues to those who are interested . Meanwhile , may I have an indication of price ? Can I have your price-sheet ?
so , have you seen all three The Lord of the Rings movies ?
yes , but I didn't really like the third one at all .
that's the Return of the King , right ?
yeah . Even though the customs were brilliant , I didn't think it was as good as the first two . What did you think ?
I thought the special effects were amazing , but I got a bit confused . The plot was too complicated for me .
did you read the books before you watched the movies ?
no . did you ?
yes , I've read them many times . I think it's much easier to follow for people who were already familiar with all the characters .
yes , trying to keep track of all the characters was quite confusing for me .
I also think that it was much better in the theatre than at home .
most movies are . Another problem for me was the film was dubbed in German with English subtitles .
that happens a lot in non-English speaking countries .
I heard that The Return of the King was nominated for 11 Oscars .
Hello ?
Hi Steve . This is Mike . What are you doing ?
Oh , hi . I was just watching TV .
There's nothing to watch right now .
I know . I was watching a re-run . I have nothing to do and I was bored .
Me too . Let's get together and do something .
I'd like to , but I have to meet my parents in an hour for dinner . How about tomorrow ?
Yeah . Let's plan something tomorrow .
Did you hear the weather forecast for tomorrow ?
I think it is going to be the same as today . Clear and sunny .
That's great . We can do something outdoors then .
Are there any special events going on tomorrow ?
Yeah . I think there's a live outdoor concert by the river tomorrow .
Oh yeah . I heard about that too . Let's go check it out .
Do you know what time it starts ?
It starts at one PM .
Let's meet for lunch at eleven thirty and afterwards , we can head over there .
I am calling to say thank you for the interview yesterday .
You are welcome . I am very impressed by your capability .
Is there anything I should do ?
No , nothing . It's thoughtful of you to call me again .
Thank you . Please call me at any time if you have any questions .
Would you like to take a look at the menu , sir ?
Yes . Thank you .
Would you care for a drink before you order ?
A glass of Qingdao beer .
Yes , sir . I'll bring it over . Have you decided what you'd like , sir ?
What good sunshine ! Let's go and get a suntan on the balcony .
I've had enough of it while working under the sun in the day . I don't need any more sun-tan .
It's different in my case . I work in the office , so only rarely do I get the chance to get any sun .
Hurry up , will you ?
excuse me ; is this seat taken ?
no . It's all yours .
thank you very much . My name is Ashlan . It's nice to meet you .
Carson . It's nice to mee you , too .
the weather is so warm for December , don't you think ?
it is unusually warm . I blame it on global warming .
global warming is wreaking havoc everywhere .
so sure . Are you from around here ?
no . I'm new here . I just moved here a few months ago .
where are you from ?
I'm from China . What about you ?
I am from Texas . I was in China once , but it was a long time ago .
did you enjoy it ?
I did . I especially liked the food . What do you think about the food here ?
it's very different from Chinese food , but I am getting used to it .
Is that the Da Vinci Code that you've got there ?
yes , have you read it ?
no , but I saw the movie . What do you think about it ?
well , to be honest , I've only gotten though 10 pages of it . So far , though , it's interesting .
well , this is my stop . it was nice talking with you .
why are you in such a good mood today ?
well , yesterday , I decided to face my fear of heights .
I didn't know you were scared of heights ! Was it really bad ?
let me put it this way . I've never seen a professional sorts game in a stadium because I could never get myself to walk to the top of the stairs to sit down .
so what did you do about it yesterday ?
I went sky-diving !
you're kidding me ! that sounds really scary !
It was scary , but it felt great , too .
weren't you scared ?
of course I was scared . But I had an instructor that went with me and that helped .
so have you cured your fear of heights ?
I think so . After I jumped out of the plane , I realized that I should just enjoy life . Worrying about it or not doing things out of fear is just plain silly .
I'm impressed .
are you scared of anything ?
well , sometimes I get scared when I'm in my apartment all by myself .
what do you think is going to happen ?
I always worry that the door is unlocked or that a window is open and that a stranger will come in and steal my things .
Did you have a part-time job when you were still in school ?
No , I was way too busy studying all the time . How about you ?
Yeah , I worked about twenty hours a week in a pizza restaurant .
What was that like ?
It was always very busy there .
What did you do ?
I stood behind the register and took pizza orders .
Did you get any perks on the job ?
Well , good morning , Tom . I haven't seen you for a long time .
I'd been feeling pretty well until just a few days ago .
What seems to be the trouble now ?
I feel run down , tired . I've been having headaches almost every day . And I'm not getting as much sleep as I usually do .
Have you been eating properly ? Eating the right kind of food is important for your health , you know .
Well , I haven't been eating well , I guess . I usually only have enough time to grab a sandwich and a cup of coffee for lunch .
And what about dinner ?
Sometimes I'm too tired to eat anything at all .
That's not good . You don't have a well-balanced diet . Have you been taking vitamin pills ?
Hello ! You have reached the offices of Maddox and McKnight , can I help you ?
Yes , my name is Max Richards . May I please speak to George Nelson ? I have already called several times . It seems I always catch him out of the office .
Oh , I'm sorry . Mr . Nelson is away at the moment . I'm sorry that you keep missing him while he is out of the office . Would you like to leave a message ?
I'm sorry , I didn't hear you clearly . Could you repeat that please ?
Certainly . Mr . Nelson can not take your call at the moment because he is away . He stepped out of the office for the whole afternoon and is not expected back until tomorrow morning . His schedule is very unpredictable at times , so the best way to reach him is to first make an appointment by email or text messaging .
Can I leave a message for him please ?
Of course , can you leave your name and number ? I'm sure Mr . Nelson will return your call as soon as he is able .
My name is Max Richards , my phone number is 898-3423 . Could you ask him to call me back as soon as he gets back , please ? I have a rather timely matter to discuss with him .
Can you tell me what it's about ? I can make a note of it , so Mr . Nelson is aware and prepared when he returns your call .
I wish you would not be so selfish .
Selfishness is one human beings instincts . It is very difficult to get it out root and branch .
But you should at least consider your son's future .
Hello ! You're welcome to Guangzhou Fair .
Thank you . I'm from America . Here is my business card .
Glad to meet you , Mr . Smith . My name is Wang and here is my name card . I'll be glad to do what I can for you .
Great ! This is my first visit to the Fair . Everything is new to me . Would you please give me some information ?
Glad to . The Fair is a big gathering taking place twice a year , thousands of businessmen from more than a hundred and fifty countries and regions are here to trade with China .
What about your company ?
Ours is a company special in exporting leather products . And what about yours ?
Whatever we do , we should do it above board .
You are right . We shouldn't do anything under the table .
It's hard to get tickets for the movie .
Did you get any ?
Yeah , two at the tenth rows .
How much is the ticket ?
It's my first time to come to Bangkok . Could you recommend some places for me ?
Well , it depends on what you have .
What do you mean ?
It takes only one day and you could experience almost all the famous spots in the city , I don't think you would like to miss it .
Sounds persuasive . How much will you charge for it ?
50 dollars per person .
That's reasonable . Will you take care of meals for the day ?
Of course . Please take it easy .
I see . May I know the schedule ?
Hey , Mr Brown . How are you ? Look at that smile on your face !
Recently it's been pretty good , actually .
That's what we like to hear , a profitable business .
Well , yes . Thanks , there's no trouble at the moment .
So , what can I do for you today ? Are you needing to withdraw or transfer ?
I'm going to need a Deposit Certification , to handle the affairs related to home .
May I be of any assistance ?
I want to have a look at the microwave ovens .
You can have a broad choice here . Are you interested in a particular brand ?
Not really . What are these toys over there ?
Ma'am , these are complimentary with each purchase . How about that one below the toys ? This is the best seller . They are of the latest model that can be found in town .
I don't like its color . A bit too bright . Do you have a grey one ?
Yes , we do . What a great taste you have ! But we only have one left in stock .
Really ? How so ?
You know a good product will always sell ! Would you mind waiting for a while , we'll get it right away .
Okay .
Here it is . It's very elegant , I think you will like it .
How about its quality ?
Its durability will be a big surprise to you .
What about the price ?
There's someone coming .
It took them four minutes to get here . That was pretty fast .
Yes , it's fast . But four minutes is enough to do fifty thousand dollars damage .
I guess the fire wasn't in the tool shed after all . It looks like the back of the house was burning .
I wonder if anyone can call the Ridleys about this . Do you know them well ?
Not really .
Do you know where they're vacationing ?
I think they went to Mexico , but I'm not sure . It ' s a bad thing to return home to . They ' ll come home from their trip , and they'll see half their house burned .
Yes , but at least this way no one gets hurt . It ' s better to have a fire in your house when you're not home . Don't you think ?
Hello , John . How are you ?
I'm fine , thanks . And you ?
Very well , thanks . Nice to see you again . I haven't seen you for a long time . What have you been doing lately ?
Oh , nothing much really . And how is everything with you ?
Fine , thanks . I've been busy lately .
What have you been doing ?
I've been studying for my exams . My school exams will begin next month .
Really ? Good luck for them .
Thanks . And how are your parents ?
They're both very well , thanks .
Where are you going now ?
I'm going to do some shopping . Why don't you come with me ?
I can't . I have to meet someone .
It's been nice talking to you .
What are you going to do for one year abroad , Tom ?
Study , study , study . I want to learn a lot .
You are going to take courses ?
Yes . I am going to take some university courses there .
Sounds hard .
Yes , but I think it's probably for the best .
Won ' t you get lonely ?
Julia , look at me ! I'm gaining weight . How could I lose weight ? Do you have any good ideas ?
Since summer is coming , I think swimming is a good way for you to do .
Are you sure ?
Of course ! Swimming can help you stay in shape by targeting all parts of your body .
Really ? Does swimming have other advantages ?
It could also help you increase vital capacity .
That ' s great . Okay , from now on I would swim three times a week . I hope I can get rid of the weight .
What do you think of the coming match ?
Winning is a piece of cake to me .
Happy birthday ! This is for you , Kate .
Thanks , Miss . Wang .
You know in China we usually don't open presents until the guests leave .
Our supervisor Lester does . Actually , Lester is kind of like the kitchen god .
The kitchen god ? What does he do ?
He just stays in the kitchen and watches you . Before the Chinese New Year , the kitchen god tells his boss whether you were good or bad this year . Just like Lester does !
Oh , no ! I did a lot of bad things this year . I hope the kitchen god isn't like Lester--he blabs my mistakes to everybody !
Actually , there's a way to keep the kitchen god from telling the bad things you did .
What is it ? Tell me ! Will it work for Lester , too ?
I think so ! Just serve a lot of sweet dishes next week . That will make the kitchen god say sweet things about you !
Hmm . Are you sure that will work ? I already tried giving chocolate to Lester .
And what happened ?
Are you sure it was him ?
I used to date him . Of course it was him .
You're a nurse at New York General Hospital ?
Yes , on the cancer ward . And Taylor was there . He walked right by me and didn't even see me .
Maybe he was just visiting someone .
Dad , what are we doing tonight for fun ?
We're going over to Mrs . Smith's place to help her with her yard work .
Yard work ? I said ' what are we doing for fun ' , not work !
It will be fun . And besides , you'll be in the best company .
Dad . You're so cute . What do I need to do to help get ready ?
You could get the rakes and some shovels together and I'll put them in the car .
Jeans and a tee shirt , right ?
Mrs . Smith , time has stood still with you !
Thank you . You ' re partial .
I'm not flattering you . You ' re full of energy every day .
David , recently I established a travelling forum , and now I want to make a plan to hold the first activity . Where can we go for this time ?
How many members are there in your forum ?
a dozen .
I think we can visit West Lake . The landscapes are attractive . It is said that just as there is paradise in heaven , there are Su Thou and Hang Thou on earth .
It's surely worth going to . There are ten famous spots there .
What can we do next after locating the place ?
Hello , Jane !
Hi , Tom . How have you been ?
Sorry to bother you so early . There's another couple who wants to rent the apartment , but I thought I'd ask you first .
That's so sweet of you . We definitely want it .
I thought so , by the looks on your faces when you left . So why don't you come to my apartment , and we'll settle all the details .
OK . How does seven o'clock this evening sound ?
Jack , could you check your calendar ?
Sure , what's going on ?
We're planning a weekend camping trip , and we want to know which weekend is best for everyone .
Welcome . May I help you ?
Use , I want a eye-shadow .
We have different colours of eye-shadow . May I know what colour you usually wear ?
Purple . But today , I'm thinking of buying one in a bright colour .
Yes , I see . How do you like this one ?
May I have a try ?
Certainly .
It's still too dark . Any brighter colours ?
Not from this brand , I'm afraid .
What about other brands ?
How about this one ?
Tiffany , why are more and more people turning to the Web to find a mate ?
I think that , as more people use the Internet for both work and pleasure , it makes more sense as a tool to connect with people , and the stigma of meeting someone online is reduced .
There are actually special sites for people looking to date within their specific ethnic group and age group . But how should you screen potential mates ? Do you suggest talking to them on the phone right away or communicating via e-mail ?
I would say do not make the e-mail exchange too long . A lot of times a connection via e-mail creates almost a false sense of intimacy . Quickly make sure there is a connection in the physical world .
Can you give us any other safety tips for people pursuing relationships on the Net ?
I'd suggest you not give out too much personal information , like your home address , until after several dates . Just keep up the same guards you would keep up if you were meeting any stranger .
Besides the growth of these matchmaker sites , do you have any stats on success rates ? Are people out there finding true and lasting love through the Internet
Well , for a site like ecrush . com , since their debut in Valentine's Day in 1999 , of the 1 . 5 million people who have joined ecrush . com , 300000 have actually matched .
Do you have any successful stories to share ?
Are you going somewhere ?
I ' m on my way to work .
Where do you work ?
I work at the polling place .
You didn ' t tell me you were working there this year .
I do this every year .
How ' d you get that job ?
I applied online .
That ' s interesting .
I enjoy working there every year .
How much do they pay ?
Did you punch in ?
Yes . By the way , you are having a great make-up today . I like the color of your lipstick . So adorable !
Really ? It took me really a while to find the color . I am happy you like it .
Well , girls like us are happy to spend our time on those kinds of things . Actually , do we still have a meeting this afternoon ?
May I have the bill , please ?
Here is it .
How much altogether ?
The total amount is $ 185 .
Does it include the charge for drinks ?
Yes .
Here is $ 200 , keep the change , please .
Cheer !
Cheer !
So what time tomorrow ?
Half past seven in the morning .
Where to meet ?
In the market .
OK . Bottoms up .
Bottoms up .
It's on me .
Sir , are you alright ? Just try to calm down , Sir . What's happened ?
I've lost my Traveller's Cheques , all of them .
OK , just take a deep breath , Sir . Everything is going to be fine . Here's a form to report missing Traveller's Cheques , whatever the reason . Please fill it in and we can get moving on this .
I see . You need the reference numbers ? For each cheque ?
Excuse me . which way is to the post office ?
The post office . Sorry . I ' m not sure .
Kevin ? Hi , it ' s Elizabeth . I have a big favor to ask you .
How big , Elizabeth ? Last time you said that , I ended up working overtime 3 nights in a row !
Well , I ' Ve got a huge load of typing and Mr . Blake has insisted I get it done by tomorrow afternoon .
Excuse me , miss . Should I check in here for taking MS121 to Florence ?
Yes , show me your ticket and passport please .
Here you are . Can I have a seat in the back of the plane ?
All the soldiers in that country are armed to the teeth .
What's happening in that country ?
Could you show me how to operate this fax machine ? I am going to receive some urgent fax from a company .
Of course . Let me check it . Firstly , don't be frustrated about all the buttons on it .
That's right .
After overcoming these buttons , you should check whether there is any paper in the machine , you must make sure this .
I couldn't agree more .
And then prepare what you want to receive . If you want to send a photograph , you must copy one .
What can I do next ?
The next thing you should do is to wait . The sender will give you the fax .
Look . Some of the faxes come through blurred . What is wrong with it ?
Are you watching the soccer match tonight ? It must be the most exciting one in this season .
Well , of course I can ' t miss it . Which team are you for ?
Manchester United . What about you ?
Me too . Do you think they are going to get the championship this time ?
Hey there , you look a little lost . Are you new here ?
Yeah how ' d you know ?
You can always spot the newbies . I can give you a few pointers if you want . Were you trying to use this machine here ?
Yeah ! I just started my training today and I ' m not really sure where to begin .
It ' s ok , I know how it is . This machine here will work out your upper body , mainly your triceps and biceps . Are you looking to develop strength or muscle tone and definition ?
Well , I don ' t want to be ripped like you ! I just want a good physique with weights and Carpio .
In that case you want to work with less weight . You can start off by working ten to fifteen reps in four sets . Five kilo weights should be enough . Now it ' s very important that you stretch before pumping iron or you might pull a muscle .
Got it ! Wow is that the weight you are lifting ? My goodness that ' s a lot of weight !
I want to have this photo enlarged .
What size do you want it to be ?
I want to have it the size of a page from an ordinary book .
Oh , I see , that's the size of 12 x 18cm . How many prints do you want to have ?
One is OK . How much does it cost ?
Let me see . Eleven yuan .
Here's twenty yuan .
Are you paying in cash or by credit card ?
Cash .
Here's your key , sir . Room number 1405 . The bellboy will take your luggage to your room . Have a pleasant stay !
I ' Ve always wondered , what ' s the difference between English for Chinese students and English for native students ?
I don ' t know . What do you think ?
I think a Chinese student concentrates on written English , and uses it as a basis for communicating . From start to finish he ' s learning vocabulary and fundamentals of grammar . This is a very difficult way to learn .
What do natives get ?
They get higher level English , which is more formal than everyday spoken English . They also deal with matters of style and creativity .
Do you mean that a native doesn ' t make any mistakes in grammar ?
Absolutely not ! Native speakers make a lot of grammar mistakes , especially if they come from a home where nonstandard English is spoken .
I suppose that only a small percentage of college students don ' t know standard English in American universities .
Shut up ... Billy ... BILLY !
What !
Wow ! What's that ?
It's my new radio earphone .
It's so small that I didn't notice it .
Did you hear peter just retired ?
Are you sure ? He is quite young , isn't he ?
He is not young as he looks . I think he's almost sixty .
Excuse me , what's the screen near your steering wheel for ?
It's a portable TV . It's a popular thing now .
Oh , that's new to me . So what's on everyday ?
News about current affairs , documentaries , music , movies , noncommercial ads and so on .
Is there anything interesting ?
Yes , there are something good and informative . I think that many people underestimate the value of TV in education .
I agree . Are there any commercials on the TV ?
Of course . Because the TV stations need to make money from commercials between the programs .
That makes a lot of sense . Does the TV work well ?
Not always . It depends on the transmission of the satellite signals .
I got it . Do you pay for the programs ?
Yes , 50 Yuan per month .
It is a little bit expensive , but it's worth it .
Yeah . You know driving is boring . TV can get me out of the fatigue of driving .
It can also entertain your passengers like me .
What kind of car is best for me ?
For you , I would recommend this one here .
The compact ? Why do you think that one is better than the others ?
This automobile is just right for your needs because not only is it compact for ease in city driving , but also , it has many safety features . I know that as a parent , you are concerned about safety in driving your kids to and from school .
That's true . What kind of safety features are we talking about ?
This model features anti-lock brakes , airbags on both driver and passenger sides , and impact collision design . But that's not all . This car isn't only safe but it's also very economical .
You mean it has a cheaper price than similar models ?
Yes , this price is very affordable , but driving this car you'll also notice a significant annual saving in gas consumption . The main attraction for this model is the fuel economy .
With the cost of gasoline these days , that is a big plus . I think this model may be just what I'm looking for .
Hi . This is a Receptionist Desk . How can I help you ?
Yes . I just checked in , but I need to change my room .
What ' s the problem ?
I reserved a non-smoking room , but the smell of smoke in this room is so strong that I can ' t endure it .
I ' m sorry . I ' ll arrange a non-smoking room for you right away . The doorman is going to help you with your luggage . I do apologize for the inconvenience .
Good morning . I ' m thinking about buying some new furniture for my living room . Could you help me ?
Certainly . As you can see , we have several three-piece suites on sale . Feel free to sit down and test how comfortable they are .
I came to your store yesterday and have come back today to make a final decision . I think I like the black leather suite . It ' s on sale , isn't it ?
Yes . The price has been reduced by 50 % . It ' s a real bargain .
I ' ll take it . I also need to improve the lighting in my living room . Do you have any suggestions ?
Those floor lamps are very nice and you can vary the brightness according to whether you ' re reading or watching tv . How big is your living room ?
It ' s quite large . It ' s about 40 square metres .
I ' d suggest you buy two . That allows you to change the brightness of the room better .
Hi , this is ABC Company . Is that Joseph ?
Yes , speaking . Anything I can do for you ?
I am calling to tell you that the interview for you is in our company on Monday morning at 8: 00 .
Where is the interview happening ?
Hello . What can I do for you , sir ?
Hi . Fill it up please . Premium .
Sure .
Oh , can you check my oil and tires while you're at it ?
No problem . I'm gonna need you to turn off your engine and open the hood for me .
OK , it's open .
Your oil is fine but your tires are a little flat .
Oh . Where can I add some air to my tires ?
Right here . I'll do it for you . ( Three minutes later ) Your car's ready .
Good . How much does it come to ?
Earning extra income on the Internet is easier than you might think . After I started selling traditional craft items on the Internet last year , I have really been able to make bank doing something I love .
Is that right ? I hear all these horror stories of internet business crashing because there is not enough of a customer base yet . How can you be sure your idea will cash in ?
To run a successful internet business , it requires a little research and relatively small investment . You've got to have a good idea of some kind of product that is in demand or would be popular .
That's marketing research ... But what about getting started once you have an idea ?
After you have your great idea , then you can set up shop by registering a domain name , creating a website , an email address , and a hosting service . If you want to go all out on your website , you can put together shopping cart technology , but that can be pricey to start out with .
Sounds like a lot of work !
Can I help you , sir ?
Yes , please . I'm picking out some presents for my children and wife .
What kind of presents do you want ?
Actually , I don't know exactly . Do you have anything recommended ?
OK . How about some very cool sneakers for your children ? Anyway , it won't cost you much . It's only around $ 59 . 95 for each pair . It might be cheaper than that in America .
Hey , How did you know I came from America ?
Just a hunch , sir .
How much again ?
$ 59 . 95 .
That's really cheap for shoes like those . OK , I'll take 5 pairs .
Sorry , sir .
Why not ?
Because in this duty-free shop , your total expenditure cannot be over $ 300 and you also have one more present to buy for your wife .
Oh , my God . I've totally forgotten about that . Anyway , I think she would like a bottle of perfume .
That's good . And I can also recommend you a good one . It's the brand of DENY .
DENY ? That's very expensive in America . It costs nearly $ 70 for only 50ml . DKNY ?
It's $ 60 here .
That's very unbelievable . Is it fake ?
Of course not , sir .
What's good today ?
The salmon is good toady , it's very fresh .
How is it done ?
It's cooked with lemon and savored with rice .
Sound nice , I will try it .
You're meal also include soup and salad .
What's the soup of the day ?
French onion soup , sir , what dressing would you like for your salad ?
Can you take part in our picnic this Saturday ?
That would be fine . Where are you going ?
We plan to go to a forest in the suburb . There is a beautiful river there . We can do some fishing .
Great .
And don't forget your fishing tackle .
Hello , George ! Haven't seen you for some time . Where have you been ?
I've been away in Paris for the last two month . Glad to see you again . How are you doing ?
Very well . Thank you . Did you have a good time there ?
Dan , Dan , dude . You have to come over to my house right now !
Is everything OK ?
Just get over here ! Come in ! Quickly !
So , since when is your house a bank ?
What do you mean ?
I mean , what ' s up with the locks and iron bars on your windows .
Security , Dan , security ! You can never be too safe you know ! A lot of sickos out there . Just the other day they caught that peeping tom red handed ! Had a high power telescope and binoculars by his window .
What ' s the matter with you ? Why are you acting all paranoid ?
Paranoid ? I ' m not paranoid ! I ' m cautious ! You see Dan , we have to be on guard at all time ! People just invade your privacy as if they knew you ! Telemarketers , solicitors , even your bank ! They have way too much information ! I like to keep everything on a need to know basis .
OK , well , what did you want to see me about ?
Have you got some nice apples in stock today ?
What about these ? They are very fresh and exceptionally juicy .
Are they sweet ?
Very sweet .
How much are they ?
These are a dollar each and those are 75 cents each .
All right , I'll have a dozen of the dollar ones .
OK . Anything else ?
Do you have any tangerines ? I'd like to have two kilograms .
Yes , we've just had some wonderful tangerines in from Tailband . Here they are .
How much is it in all ?
I ' Ve got a new boss .
Oh , what ' s he like ?
Well , he ' s got dark hair and brown eyes .
Yes .
And a white sports car .
Um , that ' s good .
where are you going , Jane ?
I'm going to the hospital to see Susan .
I saw her yesterday . She was a little better .
Must I catch a number 7 bus to get there ?
No , you needn't . A number 13 bus will also take you to the hospital .
Number 13 buses run much more frequently , don't they ?
Yes . I caught a number 7 bus yesterday , and they said I had taken a wrong bus .
Thank you , Henry . I'll get a number 13 .
Do bullfights interest you much ?
Absolutely ! Everything that ' s thrilling turns me on .
So I ' Ve got two tickets to the latest show but I need a little favor from you .
What is the matter with you ?
I've got a sore throat and my chest hurts .
How long have you been like this ?
It has been two or three days .
I think you've got a flu . Take this prescription to the chemist's and then go back and sleep .
Thank you very much .
Don't worry about your flu . You will be OK soon .
Hello , ABC Company .
Hello , could I speak to Mr . Wang , please ?
I am sorry . He's out in a meeting now . Could I ask who is calling ?
This is Mr . Smith of XYZ Company . When will he be back ?
He'll be back at about five in the afternoon . Could I take a message ?
Yes , Please tell him I called and ask him to return my call as soon as possible . It's about the PPT contract .
How did I do ?
Do you really want to know ?
Yes , I do .
You did pretty bad .
Exactly how bad ?
You didn't pass the test .
I don't understand how I could've failed it .
There are a few reasons why you failed .
What are the reasons ?
The main reason is the fact that you're a horrible driver .
Can I take the test again ?
Are you ready to order ? May I suggest a veal ?
No , I'll have the fish please .
The chicken is also nice .
No , I want the fish .
Our special tonight is lobster .
Thank you , but I prefer the fish .
Perhaps you'd enjoy the lamb .
No , I'd like the fish .
Professor Wang looks so handsome today . He is wearing a light brown suit and a pink tie .
He always wears an extremely becoming suit with tie .
He ' s quite particular about what he wears , especially about his ties . He gets different tie each day .
A light brown suit and a pink tie today , and a light blue shirt and a blue tie yesterday . A perfect match !
The tie is necessary for man . It makes you look so attractive in a super tie .
Match is important ; well , the way of tying is also important .
My father dose not know how to tie a tie , for he often wears a cravat .
My father wears a tie every day , but he can ' t do it himself . My mother helps him with his tie every morning .
I'll be late because I have waited so long !
Don't worry . The bus will arrive soon .
I'd better take a taxi .
Can I reserve a hotel room ?
I assure you , that's not a problem . What is your full name , please ?
My name's John Sandals .
It's a pleasure to assist you . Please tell me when you'll be needing the room , sir .
If my plans don't change , I'll need a room April 14 till April 17 .
Sir , our room prices are slightly higher than you may have thought . Will that be okay ?
Tell me how much it will be , and I can tell you if it's okay .
Only $ 308 per night , before taxes , of course .
$ 308 a night ? That's a fair price .
Now , as for the room , sir , do you prefer smoking or nonsmoking ?
Nonsmoking , please .
Nonsmoking . Now , sir , does a single queen-size bed meet your approval ?
I have absolutely no problem with that .
Queen , nonsmoking . Okay , sir , your room is reserved . Now if you'll just give me your phone number .
Not a problem . The number is 626-555-1739 .
Hello , this is Sunshine Trading Company . Can I help you ?
Yes . I want to apply for the accountant in your corporation and I think it is not beyond attainment .
Great . Could you tell me something about cash control ?
Come back . You haven't paid yet .
May , just let him go .
But he took some newspaper away without paying .
I know .
Why ? You make me confused .
He lives nearby and he would just glance at the newspaper headlines , read the political sections and return them later .
Why does he have such a privilege ?
He used to be a hero during the war time and everyone respect him .
I see . Does he live by himself ?
Yes , he has no children and his wife passed away when he was in the battle .
He must be lonely ?
I bet . But he is always busy telling the children stories .
It's nice and bright today , isn't it ?
Yeah . The autumn is marvelous here .
How about winter ?
That's a hard time . The air is cold and damp , and the road is often icy .
It's boring , right ?
Sure .
Do you get much rain during the summer ?
Plenty . We never worry about lack of rainwater in our area .
So you should bring an umbrella often .
what's up ?
not much . I'm just trying to hook up to the internet . I'm having a few problems though .
what's wrong ?
I've got all the cords plugged in , but it appears that I'm offline .
Are you using dial-up or broadband ?
actually , I've got a wireless connection .
In that case , you need to turn on your airport .
I hook up to the Internet every day . I can't believe I didn't do that .
do you like ever chat online ?
No , but I'd like to . Do you have to pay to do instant messaging ?
Oh , no . You can register for free . Just go to the yahoo website and it will tell you how to do it .
what do you do if people want to talk to you online but you don't want to talk to them ?
well , you can always block them . When I don't feel like talking to certain people online , that's what I do .
what's your email address ? I'll add you to my contacts list .
it's aubreyinchina@yahoo . com .
cool . We can meet up in a chat room sometime or just chat online using messenger . thanks for your help .
Are you going to come home late tonight ?
How do you understand the organizational structure of a company ?
The organizational structure is the company's framework of communication and authority .
Is it true that just like a human skeleton that defines their shapes , companies have structures that define theirs ?
How beautiful the flower is !
Really , it's so beautiful .
You like it . Well , I'll gather it for you .
You mustn't pick it in this place .
Where is it ?
But this place doesn't feel like a forty-ping apartment .
Well , it's forty pings including the balcony . See . It's huge .
Oh ! The view is great ! Mountains , fresh air ! Stars ?
This balcony is perfect for barbecuing .
And we could get a dog !
I'm sorry . No pets are allowed in this apartment building , except fish .
Good afternoon . How can I help you ?
Good afternoon . My name is Monica . I am here for the job interview at 2 PM .
Ok , please first fill in the form and return it to me . You can do it in the next door .
Done . Here is my paper .
Everybody attention . I would like to make sure you all know the process . The interview consists of three parts . One , all of the interviewees will answer the question there and lasts for maximum one hour . Two , we will take a 30 - minute ' s break . After the break , we all come back to this office and I will announce the successful candidates for the 2nd round . In which , you have a small interview with your future manager .
What about the 3rd round ?
OK , so this is the main factory area . We're now walking past the printing machine . It's printing in four colours at the moment .
What's going on over there ?
They're setting up the machine for a new run .
How long does that usually take ?
About twenty minutes .
What's happening at the far end ?
Hello , Room Reservation Service . May I help you ?
Yes . This is Mrs . Davinson . I'd like to reserve a two-room suite for tonight .
Let me see . Yeah , There are two such rooms left . May I have your name please ?
Mrs . Davinson . Mary Davison . M-A-R-Y , mary . D-A-V-I-N-S-O-N . Davison .
OK . I've got it .
Thank you . Good-bye .
Hi , Monica , how is everything going ?
Everything goes well , but I am thinking about quitting my current job .
Why ? You ' re not satisfied anymore ?
I just sense . But I cannot grow anymore . My boss is not really supporting me . I am interested in some positions in other JV companies , but I need to do some more in-step research before I send my application letters out .
That is important . Doing research on a company you are interested in will definitely help your application .
Certainly , it is very nice talking with you . But I really have to go now . Catch you later .
Why are you so rude to your wife ?
I didn't like her butting in where I didn't want her . She's a chatter box .
But she means to help you , not to trouble you .
Hey , The Cosby Show is on !
The Cosby Show ? Wasn't it over many years ago ?
That's right .
So how come it's still playing ?
I'm watching reruns of it .
Reruns ?
Peter is a bag lady now .
That black sheep . It serves him right .
He was so rich in the past . Maybe he ' s regretting his past mistakes now .
Excuse me , I'm looking for your casual short-sleeved shirts . Can you tell me where those are ?
Right over here , sir . What-size do you wear ?
Medium .
These here are all mediums .
Thank you . I think I'll take this one , and these pants as well . They're presents for a friend .
Shall I gift-wrap them for you , sir ?
Welcome to our university ' s fifties anniversary , Sir . Please have a seat .
Thank you . Wow , your school has so many honors . Congratulations !
Thank you .
Excuse me . I wonder see Dean Mr . Lee first . I was wondering if could you tell me where his office is ?
Certainly . Mr . Lee ' s office building at the south end of the campus , just beside the library .
Excuse me ?
Let me show you the way . Please follow me .
Thank you very much . It ' s very kind of you .
My pleasure .
This is it ?
Good afternoon .
Can I help you ?
Yes , we have a reservation for three nights . Mona White . I called last week .
One moment please , Ms White .
Yes , that was for two single rooms , wasn't it ?
I've reserved rooms 402 and 403 for you .
Are they quiet rooms ?
Well they are facing the street
but there's a lovely view .
We'd like quiet rooms thanks .
Hello , reservation desk . Can I help you ?
Yes . I ' d like to book a duplex suite .
What day would you like to reserve the suite for , sir ?
Next Friday .
I ' m sorry , sir . We can ' t accept reservations for next Friday due to over booking . May I suggest another hotel , sir ?
Oh , thank you very much .
Please hold the line . I ' ll see if there is a duplex suite available on that day . ( a minute later ) Sir ? Holiday Inn is available for your need .
How do I contact them ?
Good afternoon , sir . May I help you ?
I booked a table yesterday .
What's your name , please ?
Smith .
I really enjoyed tonight's party . Thank you , Sarah .
You're welcome , Bob . It was nice meeting you .
Welcome to Al ' s Garage . What seems to be the problem ?
No problem at all ! I am taking a long road trip and I want to make sure my car is in good mechanical condition .
Very wise decision . When was the last time you had a tune up ?
Not that long ago , I think it was four months ago .
We usually recommend that you bring your car in every five thousand kilometers .
Why ? I mean , what exactly do you do to a car that you need to check it so often ?
First of all , we change the motor oil and oil filter . If you don ' t do this , it can cause your engine to wear faster and that means you would probably have to change the pistons and intake valves .
I see . What else ?
We also check your spark plugs , fuel filter , and other oil levels such as hydraulic fluid . We also check the clutch and brakes to determine when you will need new ones .
Ok , well , when you put it that way , it doesn ' t seem like a waste of time and money .
This way , please . We've got a nice private for you .
That's good . Thank you .
Here we are . I hope you will like it .
It's good . It's a nice room .
And here is the menu . I'll come back soon .
hi , come on in . Can I take your coat ?
sure , thanks . I brought you a bottle of wine as well .
you're the first guest to arrive . I'll just put your coat away and then I'll get you something to drink .
should I take my shoes off ?
whatever you prefer .
this is a very nice place . How long have you been living here now ?
just over three weeks . Would you like a drink ?
sure , what do you have ?
I've got white wine , red wine , gin and tonics , ginger ale , lemonade , orange juice , and sprite .
I'll have a glass of red wine please .
one glass of red wine coming up !
so how many people are coming for the dinner tonight ?
there's just going to be 6 of us tonight .
oh , I thought there were going to be eight . who isn't coming ?
Marcia and Paul called to cancel at the last moment . Paul was running late and Marcia wasn't feeling well .
that's too bad . They ' re such good company .
I think there's someone at the door .
You got our email with all the specifications for the project . We'll be accepting bids untill noon on Tuesday . If you have any questions between now and then , please let me know .
Actually , I did have a question . We'd like to know what you had in mind for the budget on this project . We are hoping to put together a really competitive bid . But at the same time , we'd like to hit your target price , too .
I understand . But unfortunately , it is our policy not to disclose our bottom line . You can be assured that price is a weighty consideration when we review the proposals . We also consider other elements , including design and practicality . We also give weight to the reputation of the submitting company .
Do you have any price range ? Is there any way you can give me any idea of what direction to go or how high is too high ?
Good morning , Madam . What can I do for you ?
I'd like to withdraw 35,000 RIB from my Corporate Account .
Do you have an appointment ?
Yes , my name is Ms Jane Reeve , R-E-E-V-E .
Ah , yes , Ms Reeve . I have all of your information here . Do you have the cash cheque ?
Here you go .
I'm sorry Ms Reeve , it says 45,000 RIB here .
Oh , how silly of me . Can we correct it here ?
We're supposed to check in at the air-china ' s counter . Thirty minutes before take off , Joe .
Yes , I know . The boarding time on the ticket says 17
Do we need to show our ID cards when checking in .
Yes , It ' s essential .
What about our luggage ?
We can check it and hand carry small bags . And we have open each for inspection
Are they going to frisk all the passengers ?
I think I need a new notebook ...
Why ? Is there some new , cool computer out on the market ?
You bet there is . Feast your eyes on this puppy !
That's a notebook ?
Believe it !
Have you decided on something ?
Yes , please bring us two steaks .
Sure . Anything else ?
What vegetables come with the steaks ?
When he told me I had to work overtime , that was it .
The last straw , huh ?
Yes , he's really pushed me too far .
Who is your favorite NBA star ?
Kobe Bryant , of course .
Kobe ? I know him , the key guy of the Lakers , a heck of a NBA player . He is on fire when he breaks through enemy defense .
He is competent both in driving the lane and shooting jumpers , but what really makes him formidable is his ability to switch up and dribble with his left hand .
Maybe he is not good at rebounding ?
Indeed , no man can be perfect . He is just so-so in crashing the boards . Usually he plays shooting guard . Rebounding might not be his strong suit .
Kobe came to Beijing during this summer's Olympics . Did you go to the match between China and USA ?
Who wouldn't ! My friend Lee went so far as to get an autograph from him .
Well then , what are your spoils ?
What was your wedding ceremony like , Abigail ?
My husband and I got married in a registry office with just two friends there as witnesses . But then we had three parties to celebrate .
Three parties ? That's quite a lot . That must have been expensive !
Well , since my husband and I are from two different countries , and we live in a third country , we decided to have one in each country . It wasn't actually that expensive .
Were your parents upset that they weren't there to see you get married ?
I would have liked them to be there , but they couldn ' t afford to fly out to see us , and we couldn't afford to fly out to see them , so they understood .
Did your husband's family get to meet your family ?
My husband's parents flew out to meet my family when we got married in my hometown , so that was great . Some people spend ridiculous amounts of money on extravagant wedding receptions , but we agreed that the wedding party should be less about money and more about family .
That makes sense . Did you go on a honeymoon ?
We waited until our one-year anniversary to go on our honeymoon to Africa .
You really didn't have a very traditional wedding , did you ?
So , are we all ready to go ?
Yup , I think so . The car ' s packed , we have munchies and music , and the map ' s in the car .
Did you get the camera ?
Got it ! Did you fill up the tank ?
Yup , it ' s all set .
You ' re sure we ' re not forgetting anything ?
I ' m sure ... we ' Ve got all our bases covered .
Well , let ' s get going then ! I love road trips !
Um ... do you think we can make a pit stop ?
But we ' Ve only been on the road for ten minutes .
Hi , Mr . Wang . Do you feel like going boating with me ?
Sounds interesting , I haven't gone boating for some time now , and what time ?
How about tomorrow afternoon ?
Sure . Where shall I meet you ?
At the gate of the park .
Great . I look forward to meeting you .
See you then .
What do you think of this coffee table ?
It's nice , but it doesn't match the color of our room .
How about this one ?
Oh no , this type gets dirty very easily and it's difficult to clean .
Alright , let's look at some others .
Look , this one matches our room and it's inexpensive .
Have you heard Jenny divorced her French husband ?
Oh , really ? No wonder that she looks quite depressed recently .
Yes . They used to be joined at the hip .
I heard they were just married for half a year .
That ' s true . She said they often argued over nickel-and-dime things .
Yeah . Mixed marriage is tempting but full of culture shock .
You said it . You know , they fell in love at the first sight and quickly jumped into marriage .
Maybe they were just attracted to each other but too different to be married .
Good morning , I would like to make a doctor ' s appointment .
Can you describe your health concern ?
I have been having skin problems that aren ' t going away .
Are you in pain ?
No . Except for the rash , I feel fine .
Would Tuesday or Wednesday be best for you ?
I would like to come in on Tuesday .
I will write you in for that day at 4
I would like to see Dr . Smith .
Hello , sir . Can I help you ?
Yes . I want to apply for a job you posted on the Internet yesterday .
What ' s the job title ?
Service Technician . How can I apply for this position ?
You need to fill out an Application Form .
Where is it ?
It is on the desk over there . Be sure to fill out everything . Don ' t leave any blank spaces . When you ' re done bring the application to me .
Judy , what is everybody talking about ?
Haven ' t you heard ? Richard was fired by our manager .
You ' re kidding . It can ' t be true .
Believe it or not . Everybody is talking about it in the company .
Really ? I ' m surprised .
We'd better leave now .
Liz , you were supposed to have had those contracts typed up by now .
I was supposed to do that ? I thought Sharon was responsible for that .
No , Liz . I asked you specifically . Don ' t you remember ?
Now , madam , here is the Hotel .
What's the fare ?
$ 15 .
The fare is different from the meter .
Well , madam , the meter was not on at all . You didn't tell me .
Hi .
Hi , Mary , Hi , Ken I hate to bring this up , but that new stereo , system you got ...
Yeah ?
You were playing it very late last night .
Yeah ?
It kept me awake .
Oh , I'm sorry .
It kept me awake a couple of hours .
I'm so sorry , I .. I didn't realize it was that loud .
It was that loud , and it was pretty late , and check with Mary if you don't believe me .
It's true . It was a bit loud .
I'm very sorry . I didn't realize it . I promise I'll keep it down in the future .
Oh , it's no problem . It ' s OK . You know , it only happened once .
Will you be voting ?
I will . Will you be voting ?
Well , when is the election ?
You don ' t know that ?
I just don ' t know .
It ' s this Tuesday .
You can ' t be serious .
Why would I joke ?
Thanks for telling me .
You should ' Ve known already .
I forgot .
Where do you want to go ?
I want to go to Lid Hotel .
I'm sorry , but you got on the wrong bus .
Which bus should I take then ?
You should change to the No . 701 bus at the next stop .
Thank you so much !
can you give me a hand with some things in the kitchen ? I don ' t think I can finish everything in time .
ok , what do you want me to do ?
first of all , I need you to do the drying up . I ' m almost finished the washing up . I ' m going to clean the cooker when I finish .
ok . I ' ll put the plates and cutlery away as I dry them . Where is the tea towel ? Oh , here it is .
we ' ll have this finished in no time with two if us working on it .
while you ' re cleaning the cooker , I ' ll wipe the worktop . That was a great meat , by the way .
actually , it was just some leftovers from yesterday . I made far too much food to eat alone . I am glad you could come over to help me finish it .
my pleasure ! This tea towel ' s a little ragged . Do you have another one ?
yes . Look in that drawer . I should throw the old one out .
I met Mark yesterday . He looked blue .
He ' s been on the gravy train these years , hasn ' t he ?
It belongs to the past . He lost his job the other day , and he ' s up a tree now .
Hey Mark . What are you doing ?
Just watching some TV .
Anything interesting on ?
Not really . Just watching the sports highlight on ESPN .
So I take it you're pretty bored too .
Just killing time until I find something to do . What are you going to do ?
It's Saturday and we are sitting at home doing nothing . What's wrong with us ?
You wanna shoot some hoops ?
I already tried to call up some of the guys , but they are all busy .
Where's your girlfriend ? I thought you were going out with her today .
She's out shopping with her friends .
Let's go to Starbucks and think of something to do then .
Aright . Do you have any cigarettes ?
I only have a couple left . Why don't you pick some up on the way .
Ok . See you there in about 30 minutes .
I'll be seeing you around .
Good morning , Mary !
Good morning , John !
I want to have a few friends over for a dinner party to celebrate my birthday . Would you be able to come the next weekend on Saturday ?
I'd be delighted to , John . Saturday did you say ?
Yes , if that's all right for you .
I'm pretty sure I'll be all right . In fact , I'd be delighted to come over and celebrate your birthday with you . What time are you planning to start ?
Oh , good . If you could come around six thirty or seven o'clock , that would give us some time to chat a whit over a glass of wine before dinner .
Many congratulations on your winning the game .
That ' s very kind of you , but it ' s nothing special .
You were doing great out there !
Is it possible that I have a business trip abroad and work in American once in a while ?
Yes . We are a foreign-invested company and there are many chances to go abroad .
Is there any training program for the employees to make a further study ?
Oh , no . It looks like my computer really has caught a virus .
Why ? Did you open an attachment ?
Yes , something called " George W . Bush . " An hour later , all I see are pictures of George W . Bush in women's clothes .
I kind of like it . He looks better that way , doesn't he ? More presidential .
I preferred the forward with pictures of him side-by-side with monkeys .
How do you like the food sold in this sidewalk snack booth ?
At least , it is better than my boxed lunch at work . I'm so fed up with the bland food . Thank you for having lunch with me !
Any time . But I don't mind eating boxed lunch . The food sanitation is really good too .
It's hard to believe that you like it . You are so easy to be satisfied .
Hey , it's not that bad . The food is nutritious and it's really convenient . I don't want to spend too much time on eating stuff .
Eating is important . You are what you eat . It's not only a daily routine .
Well , will you just go back to work after lunch ?
No . I'm going to pay the bill for the company's lunch .
But you didn't eat anything today .
Well , the bill is paid by month . That's probably the only thing that I like about a take-out restaurant .
All right . I'm going to the McDonald's .
For what ? I thought you didn't like western food .
No , I never did . It's for my son . He loves it , and I made an agreement with him that he can eat it once a week .
That's really smart . My son Daniel is the same with your son . I just don't get it , why all the kids prefer western food to traditional food .
Me , either . But , it's for sure that the children market is a really big one .
I can drink ten cups in fifteen minutes . I ' m sure .
Did you find everything ok today ?
Yes , I did . By the way , in case there is a flaw in this CD player , can I return it ?
Yes . But you must return it within 30 days .
Is there a charge for that . I know other stores have a restocking fee .
There will be no charge at all . However you must show us the receipt . Could you sign it here , please ?
Thank you .
All right . Keep you receipt . If something comes up , you can show it to us and we will give you a refund .
Mr . Sun , would you mind if I ask you some questions , which may sound impolite ?
Ah , never mind , please .
Can you tell me how old you are ?
I am 25 years old .
Are you married ?
No , I am still single .
Can you tell me something about your family ?
How was your shopping trip Martin ?
Actually it was the most interesting day I ' Ve had so far .
Oh really ? Did you find any bargains ?
I did ! I found this lovely teapot . It was the best one I saw in the shops .
And how did you get around town ?
I took a taxi . It seemed the easiest thing to do .
Right , so you didn ' t get lost ?
Jane's mother always wants her to marry a big shot . J
That is just wishful thinking . The cost of higher education has increased in recent years , faster than the cost of living . So she wants Jane's brother to go on studying and earn his doctorate by means of it .
Drop me at the Manhattan Post Office .
Well , that's an hour's ride . Why not just post your mail here .
Oh , I'm visiting a friend there .
Where did you work as a teacher before ?
I taught English in a primary school in Beijing .
What teaching experience have you had ?
What's the price for that suit ?
It's $ 160 .
Well , I like everything about it except the price .
Why did you choose Applied Sociology as your major ?
I think Applied Sociology is a practical subject that can be widely applied to research on soci-ety and man . Hence , I chose it as my major .
Have you taken the course in Public Relations when you are in college ?
Steven , what's the expense of moving house ?
About 3 000 dollars .
It costs a lot of money . Hospital bills had already made deep in-roads into our savings . Do you think the rest of your salary will be enough to cover our daily expenses ?
I am afraid not , darling . Our expenses are mounting .
We have to cut back on our shopping from now on .
Don't worry . Maybe I can find a part-time job to increase my income .
What do you feel your greatest achievement has been at your current job ?
I think my greatest accomplishment has been acquiring the Hans account .
That certainly is quite an accomplishment .
Yes , it took a year and a lot of initiative to get that account .
What's your sales record been like there ?
The last two years we have seen an increase in sales of about 30 % to 40 % each year , so I ' m very pleased . And our sales projections are quite good for the next two years .
If things are going so well , why do you want to leave the firm now ?
I am trying to decide what school to apply to ?
Are you thinking about a public school or a private one ?
I am not sure . What's the difference between them ?
Public schools are usually state funded , whereas private schools usually get their funding elsewhere .
Which is better ?
One isn ' t necessarily better than the other . It depends a lot on the school administration and the teachers .
I hear you have to wear uniforms at private school .
Maybe we'd better go now .
It's still early .
Gosh , it's already 10 . Stay here if you like .
Since we're late , let's go to see a film .
Why do all girls appear feminine after sophomore year ?
Because they are full-grown . Look at their curvy figures .
I feel they all talk and behave in a different way .
They suddenly become shy when they speak to boys .
Some even do make-up slightly . Are you aware that previous ' small potato ' Ma Xiaoxiao becomes a piece of cheese cake recently ?
She is certainly not my kind of girl .
Stop preaching your dream love Marilyn Monroe to me . I know those sexy women are your tastes .
You are so Platonic . Those naive girls will eventually grow into real women . They can't resist love , and men cannot resist their attraction either .
Have you ever worked as a tour guide ?
I have a little experience . I guided a few foreign tourists around Beijing last year as a part-time job . I showed them to the Great Wall , the Imperial Palace , and the Summer Palace .
Then you may know that it's hard work .
Yes , I know . A friend of mine is a guide . He talked with me about his work , but I don't mind working hard .
Have you applied with any other companies ?
No , this is my first .
Is there anything you want to ask about ?
I'd like to be an overseas tour guide someday . Would there ever be any chance of that ?
Certainly . There'll be a good chance of that if you work for this company . Not right away , of course , but in a few years , after you learn more about our business , you may go overseas with a tour group . Any questions ?
Yes . When can I get the decision ? I hope you can give me a definite answer as soon as possible . If I'd turned down , I ll have to secure a position elsewhere .
All right , then . We'll get in touch with you within a week . Thank you for coming today , Mr . Sun .
Thank you . Good-bye .
Can I trouble you for some change ?
I'll see what I have got . What's it for ?
I need some cigarettes .
I can let you have some silvers if that is good .
Could you check my list to see whether I have forgotten anything ?
No problem . But how ?
I will open the suitcase and you read through the list .
Ok . I am done . You have nothing on the list left behind . But I suggest you take sneakers with you .
Why ?
It is necessary for you to walk on the street . Otherwise , it will be not good to wear high heeled shoes .
That makes sense . I will do it .
You do need to take some medicines with you . Just in case .
How much do I have to pay ?
$ 70 , madam .
Here you are . Can you put the bread in a separate bag ?
Does this bus really go to the mall ?
It goes all the way there .
Are you sure ?
I know it does . I catch this bus a lot .
How long does it take for the bus to get there ?
The bus ride is only thirty minutes or so .
Where do we get off the bus ?
Right behind Macy's is a bus stop .
The stop is really at the mall ?
It's in the middle of the parking lot .
That's perfect .
He loves that blonde girl .
Yes , he once gave her seven roses .
Did she accept it ?
I ' m not sure what you expect me to do , Michelle . You ' Ve not been very clear about any of this .
I ' m sorry , Clint . Maybe I didn ' t make myself clear enough . We should get together to discuss this .
Yeah . I think that would be a good idea . I ' m really in the dark on everything .
Ma , I really don't know how to thank you .
I'm glad I was able to help .
It's most kind of you .
Don't mention it . It was the least I could do .
If there's ever anything I can do for you , Don't hesitate to let me know .
Thank you .
I'm most grateful .
Would you allow me to drive your car ?
No problem , but you've got to be careful .
Surely I will .
I would like to book a table for 2 .
OK , sir . When will you be there ?
7:00 tonight and we'd like a smoking table .
Are you free tomorrow , Sam ?
Yeah , what's up ?
May I take your order ?
I would like to have shelled shrimps with cashew nuts .
Anything else ?
Strawberry cake as dessert , please . By the way , could you serve my main course without garlic and put less ginger in it .
Do you have any hats ?
Yes , we do . I'll show you several kinds .
I like both of the two hats . Can you give me a discount if I buy both of them
Sure , we'll take 20 % off the price .
I like this colour and it is very bright .
This color is becoming to you , too .
Yes , I think so . How much are they ?
So Beth , what kind of music do you listen to ?
I listen to a lot of hip hop . What about you ?
I mostly listen to pop music , but I like a lot of different stuff .
What do you think of when you're praying ?
I try to picture the Lord's face in my mind .
Does that help you faith ?
I will never forget Linda . After all , she was my first lover .
I think you ' ll lay it to rest with the time flying .
I remember that someone says that it is difficult to forget the people who don ' t want to forget .
Excuse me , I bought this sweater yesterday . But when I got home and tried it on , I found it ' s too small .
Do you have the receipt with you ?
Yes , here you are .
Thank you . Do you want your money back ?
No , can I exchange it for a bigger one ?
I am afraid this is the biggest size we have .
Oh , that's too bad .
Hello ! So , you're back . Do you have everything with you ?
I think so .
We will need detailed information regarding the full name of the company , the company address ...
Yes , yes . I've got all of that here .
And also , the bank and branch name the company holds an account with and the account number .
Check , check and check .
What's the purpose for this check ? Would you like to know its repayment capacity ?
Yes , that's one of the main things we are interested in . When do you think I can get hold of this report ?
As it's confidential there is a certain amount of red tape , but it shouldn't take too long . There is , of course a service fee of 300 RIB to be paid .
Yes , Mr . Emory ?
I need the number for John Reese ' s office .
Write down your name here in ink .
But I don ' t have a pen with me . May I use a pencil ?
Mr . : For tomorrow , read pages 12 to 20 . Then do exercises one through ten on page 21 .
Do we have to type out our homework ?
Mr . : No . You only do that when you write reports .
Is there anything else ?
Mr . : For those of you who don't have a calculator , get one .
We are allowed to use a calculator in class ?
Give me Scotch , please .
What brand ?
Black Rose .
Soda or water ?
Just plain water with plenty of ice rock .
How do you like the pizza here ?
Good morning . May I speak to Mr . Black , please ?
Speaking .
This is the Front Desk . I'm afraid that the air conditioning in your room needs repair . We would like to request you to change your room . We are very sorry for the inconvenience .
0K . Well , I suppose I have no choice . What do you want me to do ?
What time is the most convenient for you to change rooms , sir ?
I'm going out in about half an hour .
What time will you be back ?
Oh , around seven o'clock , I suppose .
We could move your luggage while you are out , but could you take any valuables with you ? You may pick up your new room key No . 216 from the Front Desk when you return .
OK . I'll do that .
How is your job search 1 going , Janet ?
I found the ideal position . I ' m working for a plumbing company .
Are you serious ? You studied mathematics at college for four years , and now you have a job working with your hands !
Plumbing work requires mathematics knowledge , and creativity . I love this job .
I can see that . But I didn ' t know you had experience in that line of work .
I didn ' t , but I applied for an apprenticeship , and since I studied math , AND I have a good attitude 4 , my application was accepted .
You did an excellent job in this project .
Thank you . It was a lot of hard work . But I'm glad I did it .
Congratulations .
When will you give me a raise ?
Ha ... I am not sure .
I feel quite embarrassed for having to request a pay raise so quickly .
Let me think . How much did you have in mind ?
5 000 yuan per month .
So what did you think about the movie ?
Well , I think this Star Wars episode is an excellent piece of work , but not as good as the previous ones .
Really ? I don't agree . This Star Wars episode was incredible !
Why do you think so ?
Well , one of the most spectacular things about this one was the special effects . State of the art special effects are the main reason for the success of previous episodes , so audiences have high expectations for this one , and I don't think they will be disappointed .
You are right . The special effects were amazing . And I like the fact that they created so many fantastic settings and otherworldly costumes , weapons and creatures .
It's kind of cool that they are still using the same Star Wars theme song for this movie .
Yeah ! It reminds me of the previous Star Wars scenes .
I know exactly what you mean . Hearing that song gives me a nostalgic feeling .
I thought the overall plot of the movie was very interesting , but I don't think the character development was that strong .
Do you think that they had anything to do with the casting of the movie ?
No , the casting is great and the actors were excellent . They just didn ' t have a lot of funny or meaningful dialogues . The writing was also a little weak .
Well , maybe . But I like the little kid who played Manakin Skywalker . I can't imagine anyone else playing that role .
I liked him too . He is so cute ! You know , even though I was slightly disappointed , I can't wait for the next episode . I wonder when they ' re going to start making it and when it ' s scheduled for release ?
I've no idea . But looking at the success of Star Wars episode , I've a strong feeling production for the next episode will be selling pretty soon . I hope It will be even better than this one .
I hope so , too .
Well , I think we should go now . It's getting pretty late .
Can I see the doctor ?
Yes , do you have an appointment ?
No , I don't .
Well . The doctor doesn't see nobody without an appointment .
Well , I am spending my vacation here and I have a stomachache and ...
Oh , I see . Maybe we can fit you in at 3 .
I ' d prefer to see him asap . If I have to wait for another 30 mins , I think I will faint from this unbearable pain in my stomach and ...
Oh , why didn't you say it's an emergency ? Here , fill out this form and take a seat . I'll send you in next . You don't have insurance ?
No , not for this country .
How about traveler's insurance ?
No , I didn't think I ' d need it .
Can you pay cash , then ?
Cash , credit card , cheque anything . I just have to see a doctor . I am in pain .
All right , all right , relax . I am only trying to do my job .
Excuse me , Mr . Graham ? I have something I need to discuss with you .
I ' m in a bit of a hurry , Louise . Can it wait ?
I would really appreciate it if we could talk for a few minutes now . It ' s about the overtime you ' Ve asked me to put in .
Hey , How's it going ?
Not good . I lost my wallet .
Oh , that's too bad . Was it stolen ?
No , I think it came out of my pocket when I was in the taxi .
Is there anything I can do ?
Can I borrow some money ?
Sure , how much do you need ?
About 50 dollars .
That's no problem .
Thanks . I'll pay you back on Friday .
That'll be fine . Here you are .
What are you going to do now ?
I'm going to buy some books and then I'm going to the gas station .
If you wait a minute I can go with you .
Miss Wang , how do you do ? I ' m Allan James , the director of human recourse department of this company .
How do you do , Mr . James ? Thank you for asking me to come in .
Not at all . Please sit down , then we can begin .
Thank you .
As you know , Miss Wang , we are looking for an executive secretary with business background and good English skills . We looked into your resume and thought you might be a good candidate .
Thank you .
Could I ask you where the company is ?
Sure . Our company is in Ericsson Tower , No . 12 Like East Street , Chaoyang District .
Can I get there by the No . 913 bus ?
Here is an invitation for you .
Oh , thank you . What is the occasion ?
Tomorrow is the tooth anniversary of our company . Our general manager invites you to a dinner party . Do you think you can manage it ?
Oh , yes , I'd very much like to go .
That is great . Dinner starts at 6
I'll be there in time .
All right . Bye .
What is your greatest strength ?
I think I am very good at planning . I manage my time well so that I can always get things done on time .
What is your weakness ?
I always give each job my best efforts , so when others are not pulling their weight , I am frustrated .
What is your greatest accomplishment ?
I got the Scientific Research Prize from the Gansu government for my achievements in the Northwest Regional Economy Development Research Project .
Can you work under pressure ?
Working under pressure is exciting and challenging . I don ' t mind . In fact , I am very efficient when certain pressure is exerted on the work .
What are the problems you have encountered in your job and how do you solve them ?
There was a time when both the clerical assistant and the secretary resigned at the same time . I then had to handle their work temporarily . The workload was incredibly heavy . So I started to set priorities for the jobs and hired part-time staff to handle routine work . Finally , I managed to keep the operation smooth until we found someone to fill the vacancy .
How do you deal with those who you think are difficult to work with ?
Northwest Airline .
Hello , I'd like to reconfirm my flight .
May I have your flight No . , PLS ?
My flight No . is 102 leaving Baiyun Airport at fourteen twenty .
Yes , that's our regular flight to Shanghai . What's your name , PLS ?
I am Jason Armstrong . My first initial is J .
One minute . Oh , yes , here we are . You are flying economy class , aren ' t you ?
Yes , that's right .
Okay , you are all set , Mr . Armstrong . Enjoy your flight !
What's the quickest way to get there ?
If were you . I'd take a taxi .
Can you tell me where the taxi stand is ?
You will find a taxi stand the street corner .
Thank you .
Let's take a coffee break .
How was your holiday to Cyprus ?
It was so fantastic I didn ' t really want to come home .
Did you happen to meet someone ?
How did you know ?
You always act like this when you ' Ve fallen in love . Who is he ? How did you meet ?
His name is Tony and we met my first night in Pathos . He works with my sister who lives there .
Was it love at first sight ?
Not really . I wasn ' t looking for a holiday romance , but my sister told me that she had promised him that she ' d set him up on blind date with me . I didn ' t think I ' d have anything to lose , so I went .
And ?
Let ' s just say that by the third date , we both realized that we had fallen in love .
That happened quickly ! Are you going to see him again ?
Luckily , his company has a position available here , so he ' s going to see if he can get relocated .
It sounds like he is madly in love with you . Are you ready for such a serious relationship ?
Can you tell me where the produce is ?
It's in aisle A .
Do you know what produce is on sale ?
Is there any more vodka in that bottle ?
Hum , I think there's enough for one more , yes .
Marvelous . Pass it over . My name's George , by the way .
Nice to meet you , George . I'm Irene .
So Irene , what do you do ?
I'm in computing . I work for Macrohard .
Macrohard , eh ?
What do you do ?
This is our main service area . We do all the routine services here and have two full-time mechanics .
How often do you service the vans ?
They're serviced regularly . We give them a basic service every 10,000 km or so and a main service once a year , or every 100,000 km .
I see . What does the service involve ?
Well , the same as for private vehicles really , but we do it more often because they get a lot of wear and tear .
Can you carry out major repairs here ?
What did you buy at the market ?
I bought some special local products .
You seem to have bought the whole market !
Yes . I really wanted to do so . I love those handicrafts , especially the paper-cut .
Paper-cuts are all hand-made . Let me see the paper-cuts you bought . They are all animals .
Aren't animals the main content of Chinese paper-cuts ?
All right . Animals , especially Chinese zodiac , are the most common theme in paper-cuts . But there are other themes .
Then I will buy some tomorrow .
Why do you want to buy so much ?
Because I want to send them to my friends .
He followed me all the way home !
That's about five blocks . And around corners too . So he was definitely following you .
Yes , he was . I'm not imagining it . Finally , just when I got home , I turned around and looked at him . He was just standing there . He didn't smile . He just stood there . It was so obvious . What should I do ? I'm so scared . Can I call the police ?
Actually , I don't think you can call the police . Not yet at least . He hasn't done anything . And probably the police will just ignore it . But if anything happens again , then maybe you should call .
Why can't I call the police now ? He was definitely following me !
Of course you can call the police if you want . That's not what I mean . I'm just saying that they probably won't do anything .
I suppose . What can they do ? I don't even know who he is .
Listen , Carol . Don't let this bother you too much . Probably it's nothing . Just keep your eyes open when you go out . If you see him a third time , and if he follows you again , then I think we should go to the police . But for now , just try not to worry .
Johnny , you did badly on the test . I think you haven't been studying enough . Am I right ?
Yes , Ms . Jones .
Where did this come from ?
Excuse me , can you show me the cloisonn bracelet in the counter ?
Sure . Let me get it for you .
Can you also show me this one ?
No problem . This one is made of pure gold .
I think the cloisonn bracelet is more beautiful .
You ' re right . This one costs less , but is more beautiful .
Will the luster fade out after some time ?
No , we guarantee the quality .
Ok . Can I try it on ?
What can I do for you , sir ?
Hmm , I want to change my traveler's cheque . Here is a traveler's cheque of 3,000 dollars . I would like to cash this cheque , please .
No problem . May I see your identification ?
Sure . How about my passport ?
That's fine ! How would you like this cash back ?
I want 20 hundred bills and the rest in fifties , please .
Three thousand . Please check it , sir . Thank you and have a good day .
Am I allowed to check out at 14:00 ?
Certainly .
Will there be any late charge ?
No . sir . If only you check out before 15:00
Do you know where Helen is ?
She's gone to a flower shop . Today is her husband's birthday .
David , what's new with you ? You are not in the mood . Can you tell me ?
After six months , my college life will come to the end . The following trouble will be the job-hunting . That's really a headache .
Do not take things so seriously , my pal ! Every one of us will face the trouble and job-hunting is inevitable . Take it easy ! Believe in yourself and some day you will be successful .
Are you making what I think you're making ?
Nothing but the best , Cinnamon toast .
What a nostalgic food !
Why the drama ? Have you been watching soap operas ?
No . Just the smell of bread toasting to a perfect golden brown ...
We'd like to invite you over for dinner this Friday evening . Can you come ?
This Friday evening ?
Yes . We hope you'll be able to join us .
Thank you for the invitation . I'll be very happy to go .
Good !
What time should I arrive ?
How about 6:00 ?
Hey Sarah , are you all right ? You look upset .
As a matter of fact , I am a bit upset . I just came out of a meeting and it didn't go very well .
What happened ?
No one would listen to any of my suggestions . Instead , they just kept arguing with each other .
Who was chairing the meeting ?
Bob .
Well , I can tell you from experience that Bob might come off a little strong sometimes .
That's exactly what happened ! He kept interrupting everyone with his own suggestions and did not want to hear what others had to say . Then he expected everyone to agree with him .
What was the meeting about ?
We were trying to come up with ideas to streamline the office's workflow to make it more efficient .
It's ironic that the meeting was anything but efficient .
Exactly . I had tons of ideas that I wanted to share , but they just wouldn't let me finish . What should I have done to get my point across ?
You have to keep things short and sweet . When you get a chance to speak , try not to get into too many unnecessary details .
Short and sweet ? But what if I have to explain something complicated ?
You can always bring up the main points during the meeting and speak to those who are directly involved after the meeting . Not everyone needs to know all that information .
I am not sure what to do during the holidays , any suggestions ?
Well , going to a cinema , visiting the galleries , exhibitions and museums , finding and meeting old friends , exercising in the health club or mountain biking . There are so many good choices .
The problem is that I find all of them are full of fun . I just don ' t know what to do first .
Why not start with the most interesting one ?
Actually , I ' m interested in all of them . The more choices we have , the harder to make a decision .
I couldn't wait to meet you in person .
Me , too . I've heard so much about you .
Same here .
I'm starving ! It would be truly appreciated if you bought me a burrito .
I'm a little short . I don't have enough for you .
I'm starving , as I didn't eat yet today .
I really don't have enough money .
My stomach feels so empty .
Well , why don't you ask Bob for some money ? I'm hungry too .
I'll be getting money on Friday , and I'll get it back to you then .
Okay , so on Friday , you can buy yourself something to eat .
That's not nice .
You can always go home and make something to eat .
I can't go home yet , because I have things to do here .
You ' re a big fan of Andy Lau , aren ' t you ?
Yes , I ' Ve been got all his albums and most of his films on DVD . I adore him . He ' s my idol .
How come you don ' t have all of his films on DVD ?
Some of his early films are hard to find nowadays , especially the ones where he only played a bit part .
I see . I ' m sure you ' ll find them one day . I see you also have several poster of him .
Yes . These posters are new . I bought them last week and put them up on my bedroom walls yesterday .
Are you a member of his fan club ?
I was , but then I discovered you can find out everything for free on the internet , so I ' m not a member now .
Did you see the interview with Andy Lau in cosmopolitan magazine last month ?
Of course ! I bought two copies .
I love breathing fresh air in the suburb places , while sitting in the morning sunshine .
I can't agree more , honey . We need to get away from work from time to time .
Yeah , just return to nature and feel the thrills of its beauty .
We are nor alone here . So many other families !
Sure . The sunny days of spring are ideal for outdoor gatherings .
Well , let's go over there and put a blanket on the lawn .
OK , you go back to our car and fetch the picnic stuff .
Oh , so heavy ! What have you put in here ?
Nothing special . Food , drinks , and Daniel's kangaroo toys .
Toys ? Why do we need toys for a picnic ?
He said he would like to be our tour director and he lined up many things to do .
Sure , then . May it really be a day of enjoyment . Other than that , we can also teach him something about science .
Science ? What are you talking about ? Forget about your science , OK ? It's a picnic !
I mean we can inspire him for a deeper understanding of the natural world .
I can't agree on that . Just cut it out . Give him a break and don't spoil the day .
Hi , Mike , where are you going ?
I ' m going to down town .
At this time ? Why don ' t you go there tomorrow ? It is almost dark .
My boy wants me to buy a toy , so I think I ' d better satisfy him .
But I have seen many toys in your home .
There is none now because he likes to destroy toys .
But if he always destroys toys and asks you to buy new ones , what will you do ?
Yes , I am annoyed by this , too .
And you still buy him new ones ?
Yes , I think so .
Going to the gym tonight , Mary ?
Yes , Sally . I want to do some sit-ups and perhaps get in a game of singsong .
That sounds like fun . Would you mind some company ?
I'd love it . Working out is more fun with a friend .
I'll get my things and meet you there .
My baggage is missing !
Do you have air ticket and claim tag ?
Here they are .
Well , then , would you fill out this PIR from ? And also we need your signature here .
How soon would you deliver my baggage ?
Hopefully by tomorrow evening . Which hotel are you going to stay ?
At the down town Hilton Hotel .
When is the expected date of your departure ?
Welcome , Mr . Sun .
Thank you for your entertaining me .
Today I'll invite you to enjoy the seafood . Please make yourself at home .
Excuse me , what business are you looking after in Germany ?
I am running Chinese arts and crafts .
What arts and crafts are you interested in this time ?
I hope to import some silk from Hangzhou to Germany . Can you help me ?
Let me suggest this one . It's an excellent watch , it looks good , and it's only $ 100 .
Hmm . That's not too bad . Does it have a stopwatch ?
Uh , no . Analog watches don't come with stopwatches . You'll have to get a digital if you want a stopwatch .
Oh . I see . Where are your digital watches ?
Right here .
I don't like this kind as much . Never mind the stopwatch then . I'll take that other one . Do you take checks ?
Yes . Make it out to Time After Time .
Here you are .
Good afternoon . Can I help you ?
Is it possible for me to buy some RIB at this counter ?
Of course , that's no problem at all .
That's a relief ! I was a little worried about it ; I left England in a bit of a hurry .
How much would you like to change ?
Well , I'm only here for 3 days , so I think 500 GAP should be plenty .
It's terrible how things have changed . You remember there used to be trees on all these hills .
Really ? There aren't many left now .
No , they've all been cut down and now all the soil is washing away .
Were there any animals in the forest ?
Excuse me , could you tell me which bus I should take to go to the railway station ?
I think you'd better take the No . 16 bus . It can take you right there .
How often dose this bus go there ?
Every fifteen minutes .
I really can't wait that long . Are there any other buses that can take me there ?
The No . 2 bus also goes to the railway station . You may take it .
Where can I find the bus ?
The bus stop is not far from here . Go straight on and you can easily find it .
Thanks a lot .
Dad , what's the date ?
It's December eighteenth .
In seven days it will be Christmas Day .
Yes , I know that .
So , can I buy some new shoes as a Christmas present ?
Good morning . Welcome to Time After Time Watches .
I'd like to buy a watch .
Well , you've come to the right place . What kind of watch are you looking for ?
Well , I'm not sure . Let's see . How much is this one ?
Hmm ... This Rolex ? $ 1,000 .
Oh . I don't think I can afford that . How about this one ?
This one is $ 500 .
Hi , Charlie ! What are you reading ?
Hi , bob . I ' m reading a biography ?
Who ' s it about ?
It ' s about Bob Dylan .
Who is he ?
He ' s a famous American musician .
Who ' s the author ?
It was written by Howard Sounds .
What do you think about it ?
It ' s great ! I ' Ve learned a lot from reading it .
Can I read it when you ' re done ?
Sure , bob ! I ' m on chapter 12 now , so I ' m almost finished .
How many chapters does the book have ?
There are 15 chapters in total .
When do you think you ' ll have finished reading it ?
I should be done by Friday . I ' ll give it to you in class then .
Thanks . Charlie !
How was your date recently ?
Not too bad . It is seemingly too hard for me to find a place for our date .
I guess so . Going to watch a movie and having dinner at a restaurant are usual .
She said she wanted to go Dutch in dating .
Yes , now many girls want to be independent , so it is a little popular , especially among white collars .
But I am still traditional , so I felt weird when she paid for herself .
Forget about it !
Are you satisfied with your girlfriend ?
I heard Rose is pregnant . I hope it'll be a boy this time .
I hope so , too . Rose and her husband have been wanting a boy so much .
After three baby girls in a row , Rose is under a lot of pressure from her in-laws . They want a boy in the worst way now .
But baby girls are just as good and just as fun as baby boys .
I am checking out . Here is the key to my room .
Thank you . I'll just print out your receipt , and then you're free to go . Here you go !
Thanks .
If you don't mind me asking , how did you enjoy your stay at New York Hotel ?
This hotel could use some insecticide , but my time in New York was thoroughly delightful .
How about the hiking ? It was freezing yesterday , are you all ok ?
Can ' t be better , it was wonderful . We had a lot of fun there . There was so much joy and walk and breathe the winter air . We arrived at the park at 9 o ' clock in the morning and didn ' t leave till 3 o ' clock in the afternoon .
You had been walking for 6 hours , isn ' t that boring ?
Of course not ! We built a snowman , some snow dogs and one big snow fort . We went sliding on the nice hill . It was a real work out . At noon , we had the most special winter picnic outside . Fortunately , we got it all on a video tape . You must come with us next time . I bet you will love it .
Why did the boss come down on Joe like a ton of bricks .
He spoke evil behind his back .
How did he know that he had bad mouthed him ?
Someone told joe off .
He is then in a very difficult situation .
How do you think should I handle this problem ?
You'd just let sleeping dogs lie .
But I'm already in a lot of trouble with my boss .
Anything you say or do might make it worse . Just try to ride out the storm for a while .
She's always bothering me . What should I do ?
You'd better leave her alone .
But she always harps on me .
Just tell her off .
Excuse me , miss . Could I have something to drink , please ?
Sure , what would you like ?
Is it possible to get a beer ?
Why don ' t you have a water or juice instead , so you don ' t get dehydrated ?
It's very kind of you to come and see us off .
My pleasure . What a pity you have to leave so soon !
We would stay longer . but I've got to attend a meeting tomorrow morning . Thank you for your warm hospitality .
You're welcome . Maybe next time we'll come to see you .
My wife and I will look forward to it .
I promise the next holiday I have we're coming to visit . Oh , what's your flight number ?
lt's Flight No . 302 , Northwest Orient Airlines .
They just announced the boarding call .
Then we've got to get going .
OK . Bon voyage and a safe landing .
Thank you again for all your help .
I'm looking for some fresh produce that's on sale .
Well , we just got in some mangoes .
Mangoes . What are they ?
Well , it's a fruit with a big nut in it .
Can you eat the nut ?
No , you peel off the skin and throw out the nut .
How much are they ?
Well , the sale price is $ 1 each .
What does a mango taste like ?
They're like a citrus fruit .
How do I know if it's ripe ?
You can buy them hard . Wait a few days for them to develop a soft feel .
Where do they come from ?
If ever you ' re in Chicago , please do look me up .
Well , yes , I ' d like to , if it ' s not too much trouble .
No trouble at all . I think maybe you will meet some of my friends here as well .
Hi , Ben . Here are the top ten of this week's top chart .
Oh , great !
Which is your favorite in this ten ?
I like No . 4 .
You mean Sweet Heart .
Yes . In fact , I think it's much better than this week's No . 1 .
What do you think about Cold Wind ?
I like it as well , but I don't think it's as good as Sweet Heart .
So No . 4 is your favorite . Which one don't you like ?
Well . I don't like Your Lips very much .
Why ?
I think it's too slow makes me sleepy . In fact , it's the worst in this week ' s top ten , if you ask me .
Would it be all right if I went home next weekend ?
For What ?
Well , I want to surprise my brother showing up for his birthday .
Honey , I ' ll be right back !
Where are you going ?
I told you already ! I ' m going to get my nails done .
Again ? You just went last week ! You spend more time at the nail salon than you do here at home ! Honestly , why do you need a manicure every week ?
Well , first of all , I like to pamper myself , and my nails look great . You should come with me !
Why ? I don ' t want to have nail polish or anything like that !
They don ' t only paint my nails ! The manicurist will remove my cuticles , file my nails , and apply at least nails coats of nail polish !
What's your apartment like ?
It's a furnished two bedroom flat in a three-story building on campus .
What is it like living in on-campus housing ?
It's not as bad as I thought it would be . The freshmen that live nearby are really loud , especially on the weekends . But , the rent is much cheaper than private housing , so it's worth it .
Did you have to pay a deposit ?
No , but we do have to pay 9 months rent in 6 months , so for the first 6 months we pay 1/2 month's rent each month .
Do you have to pay utilities on top of your monthly rent ?
No , it's all included . Besides , students don't have to pay council tax , so we're saving quite bit of money by living here .
How long is your contract for ?
That's the bad thing---the contract ends in June , so we'll have to find a new apartment soon .
Have you started looking yet ?
Not yet . I'm hoping we'll be able to find something cheap once all the students leave the city for the summer .
Do you need help with something ?
I ' m looking for this book .
Is there something wrong ?
I don ' t see it on the shelf .
Did you check the computer ?
I already looked .
Did it say anything ?
It said that the book is on the shelf , but it isn ' t .
I ' m sure I can get it from another library .
Could you do that ?
I ' ll let you know when I get the book in .
It's going to strike 12 o'clock . Let's get the firecrackers ready , Rose .
Aren't firecrackers forbidden in the city ?
Well yes , but they are not allowed only in downtown areas . It's OK here . It would be difficult to ban customs that have thousands of years of tradition . The habit does bring kids joy and excitement so long as precautions are taken . Let's go out and set off firecrackers out there .
Fantastic ! The whole city is echoing with crackling sounds !
What other activities will you have tomorrow ?
Quite a lot . The celebration of the New Year has just started . The first day we southerners have sweet rice cakes for breakfast , and people in the North have Jiaozi . Afterward , we will make New Year calls on family relatives , husband's side on the first day and wife's side on the second .
Do you bring some gifts along ?
That's for sure . Fruit , cream cakes , medical tonics are often for parents and aged relatives , and cash enclosed in a red envelope for the kids . All this , of course , should be well prepared beforehand .
Is it the same practice for all families ?
Not all the same nowadays I must say . Many families , especially those of newly married couples , choose to make an overseas trip to escape the routines . Rose and I had a tour to Singapore , Malaysia , Thailand and Hong Kong last year . We stayed there for two weeks until the last day of the holiday .
I really appreciate the way you Chinese people exchange feelings . The holiday's long enough for you to relax .
As we know , mobile phones bring people great convenience and shorten the distance among friends and relatives .
It bears a great many of advantages , but also some weak points .
Is it ? I've never thought of any disadvantages of the mobile phone .
For instance , the mobile phone seriously distracts the attention of people from work and study .
That's true . Some people pay too much attention to their mobile phones .
How ' s everything with you today ?
I ' m fine . Thank you .
What can I do for you ?
I need to transfer money .
Do you know which account you want to take the money from ?
From my savings account .
Where are you transferring the money to ?
I would like it transferred to my checking account .
How much ?
I want to transfer $ 200 .
Will that be all ?
Excuse me ? Can you do me a favor , please ?
It's my pleasure , what can I do for you ?
I'm from England and I'm trying to make a travel plan for today .
What brings you here ?
I'm a flight attendant and I'm here on vacation .
Where are you staying ?
I live in the Holiday Inn Lido Hotel .
Oh , it's not very far . And as far as I know it is a fancy place .
Yes , it is . Do you know where I can get a town map ?
We sell them , right here .
This is the first time for me to have a Chinese guest . I hope you like western cooking .
Yes . I like it very much .
Cooking is a hobby with me . I'm always trying to think up new recipes . I hope you like the soup . It's kind of a specialty of mine , so I hope you enjoy it .
It's excellent .
Thank you for your compliment . Won't you try this fish with white sauce ? I'm rather round of it .
It's delicious .
What sort of western food do you like best ?
I like beefsteak very much . Have you tried Chinese dishes ?
I find the Chinese dishes wonderful .
Well , it's getting late . I have to get up early tomorrow . So I must say good night .
Tom , I've got good news for you .
What is it ?
Haven't you heard that your novel has won The Nobel Prize ?
Really ? I can't believe it . It's like a dream come true . I never expected that I would win The Nobel Prize !
You did a good job . I'm extremely proud of you .
Thanks for the compliment .
I have a problem with my cable .
What about it ?
My cable has been out for the past week or so .
The cable is down right now . I am very sorry .
When will it be working again ?
It should be back on in the next couple of days .
Do I still have to pay for the cable ?
We're going to give you a credit while the cable is down .
So , I don't have to pay for it ?
No , not until your cable comes back on .
Okay , thanks for everything .
Excuse me . Do you study Chinese at the university here ?
Yes , I do . But my characters are very bad .
It takes a long time to learn Chinese writing .
Are you Chinese ?
Yes , I am . I am from Taiwan . I came here to study political science .
How do you like it ?
I like it so far . But my English still needs work .
I want to study Mandarin and international relations .
Does the Chinese department here teach regular characters or simplified characters ?
They teach regular characters .
I see . I'm from Taiwan , so I know regular characters better than simplified .
You just said your English needs work , yes ?
Yes , that's true . Especially my writing . I think my papers aren't good enough . I make too many grammatical mistakes .
Well , I am very serious about learning Chinese . But for me the hard part now is pronunciation . You have the four tones in Chinese . It is very hard . Maybe , if you have time , maybe we could do a language exchange .
You mean you and I ?
Yes , why not ? I mean , if you come to this cafe often , maybe we could meet here and practice Chinese and English .
That sounds like a good idea . How often would you like to do it ?
Let's see ... My schedule right now is quite busy . But I think I could spend 90 minutes a week in language exchange .
How would we manage it though ? How would we spend the 90 minutes ?
First , we could spend 45 minutes working on your English writing . If you want , I could help you edit your papers . Or we could do English conversation . Whatever you want . And then the next 45 minutes you would help me with my Chinese .
Would I help you with writing ?
No . For me right now , the important thing is spoken Chinese . I need practice . So you could tutor me in speaking . We could use my textbook , and you could ask me questions . Then you could correct my mistakes .
I think it sounds like a good system . But when is it convenient to meet ?
Well , today is Monday . Actually , for me Monday at this time would be the best . I am free from now until 11
Me too . In fact , I'm free until 1
So if you want to meet at 10
It sounds good . I will bring the papers I'm working on .
And I will bring my textbook and a tape recorder . I would like to record some things so I can practice on my own .
Let me give you my phone number .
This is the menu . What would you like to have ?
I don't know what to have . If you don't mind , I'll just leave the choice to you .
With pleasure , sir . May I suggest Steamed stuffed buns and deep-fried twisted dough sticks ? They are popular breakfast among Chinese people .
OK . Anything to drink ?
Yes , sir . We usually serve soya-bean milk and jellied beancurd . Which one do you prefer , sir ? A
I'll try the soya-bean milk this time .
So , that's steamed stuffed buns and deep-fried twisted dough sticks , and a Soya-bean milk .
That's right .
May I speak to the apartment building manager , please ?
I'm the manager . How can I help you ?
I was hoping that the apartment on Main Street was still available .
Why , yes , it is . Would you like to get a look inside the apartment ?
Yes , it would be nice to see the apartment .
How about today at 6 o'clock ?
Yes , I can be there at 6 .
Sounds good . I'll see you at 6 . Do you want directions ?
I'm okay , thank you . I already checked out the address on MapQuest .
If you like the place , you can fill out an application form . I'll bring one with me .
Is there anything that I need to bring with me ?
Can you name some festivals of religious nature ?
Yes , such as Christmas and Easter .
What about historic festivals ?
Hello . I have left my key in my room . But I can't get in now .
May I have your name and room number ?
I am Molopo and my room is 5022 .
OK . sir . Please go upstairs . Someone will open the door for you .
Which route are you interested in ?
I think the four days ' tour from New York to Atlantic City will be fine .
That's a good choice .
What is the departure date ?
Did you sign up for the picnic party ?
Yes , of course . I love the picnic party . It ' s really family fun time .
This time you can bring your daughter with you .
Right , she is so excited and simply can ' t wait .
My God ! Why did you bring me here ? I hate the taste of coffee .
Have you made a reservation ?
Yes , I have booked a table for four . My name is Liu Fan .
We have had a window table reserved for you . This way , please .
Thanks .
You're welcome .
Can we see the menu , please ?
I'll bring it over .
Anything good for this evening ?
We have squirrel shaped mandarin fish , seeds prawn , etc .
What kinds of meat are most popular in your country ?
We usually eat chicken , pork and beef . You eat these meats a lot in your country too , don't you ?
Yes , we do . We also eat mutton .
I've heard that people in your country like mutton chops .
That's right . Mutton chops taste so good . We eat them with sauce . Have you ever tried ?
Yes , I have . I tried once when I visited your country last year . I think they were very tasty . Can you cook them ?
Certainly I can . I'll buy some from the butcher's and cook for you next Sunday .
Mr . Smith , welcome to our factory .
I've been looking forward to visiting your factory .
What was the last movie you saw ?
A Korean film called Friends , starring Sang Dong-gun .
Really ? I've seen that movie , too .
How did you like the movie ?
I thought it was pretty good .
Really ? I can't say I agree .
You're kidding . The story and acting were outstanding .
I guess I expected too much from the movie , so I was a bit disappointed .
This is the house I want to rent .
Could you tell me the advantages of it ?
No problem . First , it's comfortable and cozy . Second , it has a lovely view of the city . Third , it has all kinds of electric appliances that we need , such as refrigerator , electric stove , heating apparatus , washing machine and dishwasher . Forth is the most important , the electricity is free of charge . Finally , it's located in the center of the city and the transportation is convenient .
There is something in what you said , but what is the rent ?
200 dollars per week .
In my opinion , the rent is far more expensive than that in other areas .
It certainly is . But to tell you the truth , the room is so large that I can share it with someone else , and that will decrease the total amount of the rent .
Your intention is good , but I still can't agree with you . If no one would like to share it with you , you have to pay it all by yourself .
Don't you think I can save some bus fares since it ' s easy to go anywhere from here and it ' s near the place where I work ?
I agree with you in this way . But how often do you go to work or shopping per week ?
Twice a week for work and once for shopping .
In my opinion , you have to go to the university every day , and the fare would cost you most of your living expenses if you live here far away from the university .
Hello , I need to register for a class .
What class are you trying to take ?
I want to take a Psychology class .
Well , there are only two classes open .
Can you tell me what days the classes are on ?
One class is on Tuesday and Thursday from 2 p . m . to 4 .
And the other class ?
That class is from ten to twelve on Monday and Wednesday .
Are you sure these are the only open classes ?
Yes , I am sure .
Okay , sign me up for the class on Monday and Wednesday .
I think I going to need some iced water too . Is there an extra charge for that ?
Yes , we charge 50 cents for water .
That's fine . Could you give me some more napkins , too ?
Sure . Do you need anything else ?
Yes , I would also like some sweet and sour sauce and pepper .
I'll put all that into the bag for you .
Do I owe you anything for the sauce , pepper and napkins ?
Mom , Dad ! Can you come to my room ? I think there is something under my bed !
Ikebana , it's an art of flowers and it's quite different from Western style flower arrangement because in Ikebana's theory you can decorate one flower , only with one flower .
What's another Japanese art ?
Japanese art ? Mm , Ikebana ! Tea Ceremony !
Tea Ceremony ! Tell me about Tea Ceremony .
Tea Ceremony ! It's , there's a certain way you have to make tea , not only make tea , there's a certain way to for example wipe a bowl .
I see .
Yes , with one piece of cloth , and you need to learn how to fold the cloth so that you you use each part of the cloth only once to wipe the bowl
How do you learn that ? Is that something that your mother would teach you ? How do people learn that ?
Congratulations , Vivian . You won the grand prize , again .
Isn't it just great ! I just knew I'd win !
You did ? How ? Did you wear red underwear again this year ?
Not only that !
Tell me ! Tell me ! What's your secret ? !
OK , OK . I'll whisper it to you , but you have to promise not to tell anyone !
Good morning , Textile Import & Export Company .
Hello , this is Miller . I'm calling about the appointment with Mr . Zhang for this afternoon . Something's just come up , I'm afraid the appointment will have to be rescheduled , I'm very sorry about the change .
That's all right . Maybe we can make another arrangement .
You're very kind to say so . Thank you . Do you think tomorrow morning would suit him ?
I'm afraid there's a bit of a problem . In fact , he's booked up the whole week except tomorrow afternoon .
Tomorrow afternoon , Um ... you see , I've made an appointment with Mr . Comet for tomorrow afternoon . In order to meet Mr . Zhang , I have to cancel the appointment with Mr . Comet , I'm afraid .
I'm terribly sorry , Mr Miller , but Mr . Zhang is really busy this week .
I understand . When do you think I can come and see him tomorrow afternoon ?
Please let me check . Tomorrow afternoon - Yes , he'll be free from 2:00 tomorrow afternoon . Do you think it's convenient for you ?
You got a letter in the mail .
Give it to me .
What is it ?
It ' s my acceptance letter from UCLA .
What does it say ?
I ' Ve been accepted !
Are you serious ?
I ' m serious .
Good for you !
NYU was my first choice , but UCLA is just fine .
I ' m so proud of you .
Good morning . I want to deposit 3,000 yuan in your bank .
Yes . Do you have a savings account in our bank ?
No , I haven't . It is the first time for me to come to deposit money here .
How long do you want to keep it in our bank ?
Two years , please .
You have to fill in this form with your name , address , ID card number , deposit term and the amount you want to deposit .
OK . What should I do if I want to draw my money before maturity date for an urgent use ?
Don't worry . You can draw your money at any time . But you'll not receive the time deposit return of interest . What we can offer is a current one .
I see . By the way , what if I forget to cash my money when the maturity comes ?
In that case , we'll just regard your account as a regular savings account from then on .
What can I do for you ?
I want to get a package of cigarette .
Have you a taste for this kind ?
No , this kind of cigarette is too strong for me , I desire a mild one .
What about this ?
It suits my taste , I'll take it . Do you have lighters ?
I have a lot of them .
Show me the one made of plastic .
OK , here you are .
Did you like the Chanel bag that I got ?
You must have a rich boyfriend because that bag is so expensive !
I bought it on eBay . It was only one-tenth of the original price . And the purchase was so easy .
No kidding ! Then how do you know the bag's real ?
Well , it came with a certificate , and it looks real . But auctioning on eBay is risky .
A risk I would never take ...
Excuse me , sir ? I ' m afraid this is a no-smoking area .
What ' s that ?
I ' m sorry , sir . Smoking is not permitted in this area .
Have some more tea , George .
No , thanks . I've really got to go now .
Have a nice day !
I've been thinking about getting my hair cut .
I thought you were going to let it grow out long .
I said that , didn't I ? But I just don't know what to do with it .
You're in one of those in-between stages , aren't you .
Yes , it's not short enough to be wash-and-go and not long enough to do anything fancy .
Have you thought about wearing a hat ?
Everywhere I go ?
Any new ideas on the Mr . Fro case ? How can we give this motor oil a new brand identity ?
Let me get my morning coffee to get my brain working again .
I could use one , too . I'm still burnt out from that last cigarette ad campaign .
Harry is so down that he won't talk to anyone .
I know only too well what that's like .
What do you mean ?
Come on , you must tell me everything about him .
Well , he's very tall and handsome .
Hmm ...
He has big blue eyes and long blonde hair .
Oh , how long ?
Down to his shoulders . It's beautiful , like gold .
OK . OK . You'd better tell me what he does .
He's a very creative painter . His paintings sell well .
Really ?
He's quite a patient teacher , too .
Fine .
I've got some bad news about the bike you lent me .
What's that ?
I fell on the way to school , and your bike got scratched . I'm really sorry .
Don't worry about it . It's not new , it already has a few scratches . Did you get hurt ?
No , thank you .
That's the most important thing .
It's kind of you to say . I feel a little stupid .
Forget about it .
When you lent me the bike , it looked brand new , almost anyway .
Maybe , but really I have fallen a couple of times and it's been hit once or twice as well .
You hurt Ben's feelings .
Hello . Are you here to withdraw some money from your account at the Securities Company ? I'll need to see your Passbook for that account .
Right , here it is .
Thanks . OK ... your balance is 320,214 RIB . How much do you require today ?
I'll take 4,500 RIB , please .
Please fill in this transfer form and enter your password , here . Then the transaction should be completed .
You know them ?
Oh , I am not sure I even want to look at this house !
It is a bit of a fixer-upper . Let ' s take a look inside .
It doesn ' t look much better inside this place .
You know , with a little elbow grease and paint , you could spruce it up a bit .
There are hardly any windows in here , and that makes it really gloomy .
Let ' s go check out the kitchen . The printout says that it is quite large .
Look at those broken tile countertops and the peeling wallpaper .
Maybe the master suite has some redeeming qualities . Follow me , please .
What ' s that smell ?
OK darling , I got some pizzas , potato chips , hot dogs and lots of cheese !
Oh John , I thought we said we would start eating right ! Remember ? Our new healthy lifestyle ? That ' s all junk food !
Humph ! Right , so what did you get ?
Well , healthy food , of course ! I got some whole wheat bread , skimmed milk , fresh fish and organic carrots ...
Organic ? What ' s organic ? Do we need organic carrots ... ?
They were grown without using any chemicals that are harmful to our health . And yes , John , we need organic carrots ...
Oh , so organic vegetables are the ' green ' option , right ?
Yup , better for the environment and better for us !
Wait a minute , what's that ? ... Doughnuts ? They organic doughnuts , Kelly ?
May I speak to Marry ?
She's in a meeting until noon .
Ok , I'll try her back then .
Hi , Larry , how was your weekend ?
Not bad . We had a get-together with friends from college . I haven't seen many of them since graduation . How about you ?
Great . I hung out with Jo all day shopping , and the went out for dinner together .
Sounds a good weekend . You know it always amazes me that two people as different as you and Jo can become such close friends .
Yeah , I never thought we could be good friends either . We have our differences . She's more outgoing and active while I am more quiet and reversed , but we still get along extremely well . We can talk for hours about anything .
That's great . I know people who can't stand each other for even five minutes .
When Jo and I are together , we argue a lot , but that's also part of the fun . Besides , I know she will always be there for me when I need her , and she knows I'll be there for her .
It seems you two bring out the best of one another .
Exactly . Having Jo as my friend is one of the best things that's ever happened to me .
Yeah , you are so lucky to have found each other .
How may I help you ?
A double cheeseburger sounds good .
Everything on it ?
Yes , please .
Would you like fries with that ?
I would love large curly fries .
Would you like anything to drink ?
Yes , let me have a medium Pepsi .
Will that be all ?
Yeah , that's it . Thank you .
Your total comes to $ 5 . 48 .
Yes , ma'ma . May I help you with your bags ?
Oh , yes , if you like . The large one goes to Washington . The other one I will take with me . All right ?
Flight 36 to Washington . It ' ll be on the plane for you .
Can you believe me ?
Sure .
Please count on my love .
I will .
I'll be yours through endless time .
I see . And I'll always be devoted to you .
Thank you . I know I've nothing to offer you , but I'll never give you reason to cry .
I'll never hurt you ; I'll never lie .
My love will grow , like a river to flow .
It can't be dry , and can't die .
I don't know whether we are in a dream .
Here comes the last course ! Shall I help you to the dish ?
I'd rather not have it if you don't mind . I'll have soup instead . I'm supposed to be on a diet .
Is it true that rice is the staple food in most of Southeast Asia ?
I'm not an expert , but that's the impression I have .
Is rice your staple food , too ?
Will you give your friends a buzz and put out a feeler to see if they like to offer me a loan ?
Give them a buzz ? What can I say to them ? Say that you want a loan ?
I just want to make sure that there is possibility of giving us a loan .
Have you seen Harry ?
No . As far as I can remember he was supposed to be on a business trip to Lisbon .
Yes , but he was supposed to be back by now .
what did you do over the weekend ?
I went a global warming rally in London . It was fantastic to be around so many people who care about the environment .
do you think there's anything we can do to reverse the damage that's been done already ?
it might not be possible to fix the problems that we've created for ourselves , but there are lots of things we can do to prevent more damages from happening .
like what ?
well , we can use public transport instead of taking our cars for a start .
what else can we do to protect the environment ?
if you do have to drive , you should make sure that your car runs on unleaded petrol . Also , your home should use sources of renewable energy .
how about recycling ? Does that actually help ?
yes . You should take your glass , paper , plastic , cardboard , and tin cans to a recycling center .
what do you think is the biggest worry for our future ?
I think that the issue of greatest concern is having enough sources of clean water for everyone .
I had no idea you were such as environmentalist before !
What date is today ?
Why ?
Didn't you notice the roses everywhere ?
I hear it's Chinese Valentine's Day ! Don't you know ?
Oh , God . I just forgot it . I should have brought roses for my girlfriend .
Thank you for joining us this evening at Chez Attitude .
I am Mr . Foster , and we have a 7:00 dinner reservation tonight for four people .
Welcome , Mr . Foster , if you would have a seat in the lounge area , our hostess will be ready to seat you in just a moment .
We are going to have a drink while we are waiting . Please let the hostess know that she can find us there .
She will come and let you know when your table is prepared .
Those patio tables are new , aren't they ? Would it be possible to be seated out there ?
An outside table is available right now if you would like to be seated immediately .
We would love to sit outside . Thanks for your help !
Here is your table , and now may I take your drink order while you are considering what to have for dinner ?
Yes , could you please bring us a pitcher of margaritas and four glasses while we are figuring out our dinner order ?
I'll put your drink order in and be right back to get your dinner order .
Hmm , what should I wear today ?
Come on , you think about what to wear almost every day . There are thousands of clothes in your wardrobe .
Well , haven't you ever heard people say that there is always one piece of clothes missing from a woman's wardrobe ?
I have and I can prove that is 100 % true for you .
Loving to look beautiful is women's nature . In fact , I am thinking about going to my favorite clothing shop today .
No kidding ! Again ? ! You just went shopping yesterday . You really are a shopaholic .
Well , I need to change the shoes I bought from Nasi . They are too small . I want to ask them whether they come in a larger size .
Have you found another job yet , Sally ?
No , I haven't , but I've seen several interesting advertisements in the paper .
What kind of job are you looking for ?
Either something in the hotel business or something to do with travel .
You haven't had any experience in either of those fields .
Which type of telephone bill would you like to pay today ?
My home phone , the landline . I don't have a mobile phone , far too complicated for an old lady like me ! Do you need my Bank Book ?
I'll need your Bank Card , please . Your Bank Book is required for over the counter services ; with the ATM you just need to have your card .
Let's get started . First , select the service you require . That's household bill payment for you . Then we select the type of bill , so that's landline ... here you go . Your bill for this month comes to 87 . 42 RIB . The money will come out of your account and go straight to the phone company .
What happen , John ?
Nothing .
Why do you look unhappy ?
I ' m rather disappointed at not being able to see my best friend off .
May I ask whether we are allowed to wear casual clothes in the office ?
Sure , company rules are not very strict at this point .
Thank you for telling me that .
But remind you , there are some forbidden activities .
What are they ? I ' ll be careful .
Don ' t use office phones for personal matters .
I got it .
Never ever come to work drunk , also smoking in the office is not allowed .
What's all the security check about , Jimmy ? Does it mean the bar may be a dangerous place ?
No , of course not . Just in case . Nothing to worry about . Don't you also do this in China ?
I don't know . Maybe the same . Actually , this is my first time being in a bar .
Oh , then it's my honor to be here with you . I can see now why you've been so curious about the bar stuff . You like this place ?
Sure . I love this place , especially the decoration . So tasteful !
Yeah . Other than that , the real feature are the excellent drinks . Can I have your ticket ?
Here it is . But , what for ? We're already in .
Well , with the ticket , you can get a free drink . What would you like ? Orange juice ?
Yes , orange juice will be fine for me . But how can you get the drink ? It's so crowded there around the counter . You can barely move .
I'll show you how . The bar tenders know whose turn it is . And also , I can snap my fingers to catch his attention .
The National Day is coming . What are you going to do during the holiday ?
I have no idea .
Why don't you go sightseeing ?
It isn't a good time because there must be many tourists in the scenic spots . What about your plans ?
Excuse me ! I don't have time to waste . I've been here almost one full hour !
Sorry , madam . You have to wait your turn . The parking lot is full .
Unbelievable ! Parking in this city is such a nightmare !
Madam , patience is a virtue .
Oh , gosh ! I have to go to the restroom so bad ! I can't bear it anymore !
I'm sure a spot will open up soon .
hi , my name's Abby . What's your name ?
I'm colin . It's nice to meet you . What do you do ?
I'm a freelance English teacher . How about you ?
I'm in between jobs at the moment .
what kind of job are you looking for ?
I'd like to find a job with flexible hours in the IT field .
have you ever thought about becoming a freelance IT consultant ?
no . Is it difficult to find such a job ?
not if you are good at net-working . Do you like to meet new people ?
yes . I'm pretty out-going and friendly .
do you have experience in the IT field ?
I have some . I worked in the IT department at a language school for four years in Spain .
do you speak Spanish ?
yes , but not fluently .
that's OK . Have you sent your CV out to anyone yet ?
I've sent my CV to dozens of companies but nobody has got back to me .
did you write a clear objective in your resume ?
no , because I didn't know what I wanted to do .
I think you need to update your CV . Bring it over to my office tomorrow and I'll help you with it .
How much did you pay for the TV ?
200 bucks .
200 bucks for a piece of junk like that ? That's a ripped-off .
What do you mean ?
It's not worth it .
Judy , your husband has a really nice car .
Thanks . It's a lot better than mine , and it's new .
Where are you going ?
We're going to visit my sister in the city .
I didn't know your sister lives in the city , when did she move there ?
About a year ago . She lives in an apartment on 3rd street , across from the public library .
I see . It's almost 5:00 PM now , don't you think there will be a lot of traffic ?
Oh , we're not driving . We're going to take the subway . The subway only takes about 20 minutes .
Yes , but it can be very crowded around this time . I always feel uncomfortable taking the subway .
I take the subway to work everyday , so I'm used to it now .
Doesn't your mother live in the city ?
Yes , she's lived there for about ten years .
I remember when she moved there . Apartments were a lot cheaper then .
I know what you mean . It's hard to find anything that's reasonable now .
Have a good time . Next time you're free , give me a call and we'll go play poker .
Could you just hold this for me ?
What are you doing ? Is anything wrong ?
Yes , but I've nearly fixed it . Just take it , will you ?
hey , Tom , did you enjoy your lunch ?
oh , don't mention it . It was terrible .
what ' the matter ?
the food station was as crowded as usual . I waited for 20 minutes for my sandwich , and when I finally got it the chicken was underdone .
I see . You simply can't blame the server for this .
yes , I know . Fast food is so popular in this district .
that's true .
anyway , how was your such , Catherine ?
it was good . I brough lunch from home today .
you did ? I thought you must feel right at home here as we get as many fast food restaurants as you do in America .
well , I personally don't like then because i don't believe they are healthy .
i guess you're right . More often than not , people go there only for convenience . The foods may taste good , but generally speaking , they are high in calories , salt and fat .
yes . I am wondering that you must believe fast food is your lifestyle , don't you ?
you bet . Almost all top brands such as McDonald's and KFC are from America .
well , actually two-thirds of Americans may avoid these places .
seriously ?
It is really exciting news .
What news ?
You don ' t know ? The company is going to replace these old computers with the latest ones .
You know what we will get ?
We will all get a docking station on our own desk from which you can remove your laptop easily . And if you come back to office , you just reconnect your laptop with docking station .
What docking station ?
This is a kind of socket mounted to your desk . The socket has all the wire connections of the company line and all the other office automation equipments , like fax , copier , a screen , printer and scanner , and it will be very convenient .
How have you been ?
You won't believe what just happened .
What ?
I went down to change some money , right ?
Yes . We need some . How much did you change ?
I wanted to change around 5000 dollars . And you know the exchange rate .
Yes , it's about 35 pesos for every Taiwan dollar , right ?
Not today .
What do you mean ?
I went into the bank with my money , and I looked at the exchange board . At first I couldn't believe it . I thought I was reading the board wrong or something .
Why ?
Because the board said 60 pesos for every Taiwan dollar .
Sixty ? That's too much . How can that be ?
I thought it was wrong too . It didn't make sense .
Just two days ago it was 35 . How can it be 60 ?
So , I went up to the teller and started to exchange the money . And it's true . They really gave me sixty pesos for the dollar .
Her dress looks funny .
I wouldn't say that . It looks fine to me .
Are you kidding She is behind the times . That style went out last year .
Oh , come on , as long as it looks good on her .
Well , you ' re really as out-dated as she is .
You ' re darn right . I am out of style . So what What's the point of keeping yourself in style
What do you think of the way people use and treat animals ?
I think most people treat animals well , but we are often cruel to animals . When we raise animals for food , the conditions they live in are often poor .
Perhaps people should stop eating animals . We could grow more crops .
What would you do with all the animals ? You couldn ' t just let them go . Besides , some people would still hunt them . Meat has become an integral part of our diet .
We could provide them with better conditions anyway . We should certainly try to improve the conditions at zoos . We should try to recreate the natural conditions as much as possible .
That ' s true . I think zoo are a good idea , because they allow people to get close to animals . I think it ' s good for kids to see wild animals .
I agree . I ' m an adult and I love going to the zoo . I don ' t like animals experiments though . I believe that we can do tests in other ways .
I read that the number of animals being used in experiments is falling dramatically as new techniques are being introduced .
That ' s good news . The good thing is that most people treat their pets well .
Sometimes you read about people who have been cruel to pets or other animals , but those stories are rare .
Have you every given money to any of the charities that take care of animals .
I ' d like to talk to you for a second , please .
Okay , Mark , What ' s up ?
I ' d like to know why you ' re always taking credit for work we ' Ve done together like that line in the new Ice Cream ad ?
Helen , did you hear I ' m having a party ? Next Saturday in my place .
I may have something on that day , but thanks for inviting me .
Well , drop by if you can .
I will , do you want me to bring anything ?
Sorry . The car breaks down and it needs to be repaired .
Wow . She can be really nasty , can't she ?
No . She was right . I was too nervous . I kept thinking , What if we blow it ?
Well , I guess Zina figured you couldn't blow it if you were in the hotel room .
She even stayed at a different hotel . She said I might be contagious .
Joanne , let ' s not make this divorce any more acrimonious than it already is , okay ? Let ' s just get down to business and start dividing this stuff up fairly , so we can go our separate ways , alright ?
Fine with me . I just want to get this over with . It ' s important we make a clean break . I should have signed a pre-nup .
What was that ?
Nothing ! Anyway , you ' re right , there ' s no reason this has to be nasty . My lawyer tells me you ' Ve accepted our alimony proposal and the division of property , as well as the custody agreement-I keep the cat and you get the dog . So that ' s done ... finally .
Let ' s not go there , Joanne ! Ok , so let ' s start with the record collection , I ' ll take the albums I contributed and you can have your cheesy disco albums back .
Fine , but I ' m keeping the antique gramophone as my grandfather gave it to me .
I believe that was a wedding present to both of us , Joanne . And you hardly ever use it !
He ' s my grandfather , and he never really liked you anyway !
Whatever ! Alright , I ' ll concede the silly gramophone , if you ' ll agree that I get the silver tea set .
How typical , when are you ever going to use a silver tea set ? Fine ! I don ' t want to drag this out any longer than necessary . What ' s next ? What about these old photographs ?
Which ones ? Let me have a look . Wow , look at that ! That brings back memories ... That ?
Our trip to Italy ! I remember that day . We were going to visit the Trev fountain , and we got caught in the rain ...
... and you looked so adorable with your hair all wet . I had to take a picture of you standing there in that little alley , smiling and laughing in the rain ...
Oh , we really did have fun back then , didn ' t we ?
Oh , Joanne , are we making a big mistake ? I know our relationship has been on the rocks for sometime but are you sure we can ' t reconcile and try again ? I still love you .
Oh Jeff ! I love you too ! I ' m so glad we didn ' t have to decide who keeps the motorcycle .
Hello there , welcome to Wine World . Let me know if I can help you out at all .
Um , yes , please , I could really use some help . I'm going over to my boss'house for dinner tonight and don't know what kind of wine I should bring .
OK , do you know what kind of food will be served ?
Well , his wife is Japanese . He said she makes really good sushi .
Hmm , that's a bit of a challenge . Sushi is notoriously difficult to pair with wine . Well , let's see . have to be a white wine , of course .
Why ? Wouldn't a red wine go well with sushi ?
No , I don't think so . Sushi is a very delicately flavored food , and red wine would be a jarring contrast . You need a white wine , which has more subtle flavors , to complement the fish .
I see . So should I get a bottle of Chardonnay ? That's a white wine , right ?
Yes , Chardonnay is a white wine , but I'm not sure it'd be your best bet . Chardonnay is one of the more fullbodied whites , and tends to be a bit oaky . I'd suggest that you go for something brighter , like this Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand .
Sauvignon Blanc ? What's that ?
That's another varietal , or type of grape , just like Chardonnay .
Let's see . The label says it's got " attractive citrus and grassy aromas that give way to crisp , mineral flavors and a bonedry finish . Serve chilled . " Oh , no , how long will it take to chill the wine ? I'm on my way to the dinner now .
It's OK , don't worry , we'll just choose a wine from the cooler . We don't have quite as extensive a selection over here , but ... this Rhone Valley white would be lovely .
All right . What varietal is that ?
Well , this is a French wine , so they don't always specify the varietal on the label . The French believe that the soil a grape is grown in is one of the most important factors in the final flavor of the wine . This wine is probably a blend of a few different types of grapes , mostly Viognier , I'd guess .
And you think this is a good wine ?
Yes , this is one of our best-sellers . It's not quite as dry as the Sauvignon Blanc we were looking at earlier , which means it's more approachable . It's light and crisp , with a bit of a vanilla aroma .
You are too picky .
No , I'm not . Hey , look at that guy over there .
Which guy ?
The guy in the blue shirt at the table by the window .
I can't see him . Where ?
Right there .
Oh , I see him now . Wait ! That's ...
Yes , it's Mel Gibson .
Oh , wow ! It's really him ! Who is that woman he's with ?
I don't know . Why don't you go ask for his autograph ?
I can't do that .
Three other people started to bid . One called himself Buddhabuyer , so I knew he meant business . I raised my bid twice , but it kept going up .
How high did the price go ?
I don't know . I dropped out at $ 250 .
You didn't watch the end of the auction ?
Jack and Mary broke up .
It ' s so sad . They had been together for only two months . Do you know what the matter was ?
Mary said Jack was cheating on her . Jack was seeing a girl from his hometown . One day , May saw them holding hands and ended the relationship immediately .
Really ? I ' m very surprised . He doesn ' t look like a guy who ' d ever do that sort of thing , right ?
No , he doesn ' t . Anyway , she found out that he had been two-timing her for a long time .
Maybe it is for the best . They are not suitable for each other because they have nothing in common and are completely different people .
How so ?
He is an extrovert while she is an introvert . He likes parties while she hates them .
Poor Mary ! She really liked him .
Anyway , she was right to end things and she deserves better .
Do you think they ' ll get back together ?
No , I don ' t think so . I know Mary . Once she makes a decision , she won ' t change her mind .
I hope she ' ll recover soon .
Johnny , have you tidied up your room yet ?
Not yet , Mom . Why are you on such a cleanliness kick anyway ?
Do I have to remind you that your grandma is arriving tonight ?
Oh , my God , I forgot grandma's coming !
Yes , so this place had better be clean . You know Grandma ...
... I know I'll be killed if I pee on the toilet seat .
Be careful . The floor is slippery .
Mom , there isn't any hot water
Turn on the shower .
It's getting cold .
What do you think of your teacher ?
He's very strict with us .
And I hear he gives very good lectures .
Could you show me the way to the railway station ?
Yes , of course .
Would you like to be my guide ?
What do you think of this dress ? Do you think it suits me ?
Sure . Why don ' t you try it on ? The fitting room is over there .
It ' s just the right size-a perfect fit ! Have you seen anything you like ?
I ' m thinking about buying this sweater . I know it ' s june now , but it will be perfect for autumn and winter .
It looks too big for you , but I like the color and the material is good quality . Is it on sale ?
Yes , it ' s half price . It ' s supposed to be too large-that ' s the fashion .
I might get one too , but in a different colour . I prefer light blue to while .
There . It looks great , don ' t you think ? I ' m going to get these jeans as well . I need a new pair . I need a new pair . I ' m also going to buy this scarf ready for winter .
I ' m getting this beret -- doesn ' t it look cool ? I ' d like to get some jeans too , but I don ' t have enough cash on me .
Don ' t worry . I ' Ve got my credit card . You can pay me back later .
Okay , I ' ll take it . By the way , do you have delivery service ?
You don ' t need to carry the furniture home because we have delivery service .
Do you charge for delivery ?
Wo will deliver the goods to you for free .
Very good . Could you deliver it to this address ?
Sure . Please write down your name and your phone number .
OK . Can you tell me the delivery time ?
No later than tomorrow .
Great party , isn ' t it ?
Yeah , really .
By the way , my name is Liu Wei .
Hi , I ' m Susan Marshall . You can call me Susan . Nice to meet you .
What do you do , Susan ?
Well , I ' m a college student . How about you ?
I work for the Bank of China , in the International Section .
What a letdown . I wanted to experience some Mafia culture firsthand .
It's worth it just to go and eat what the mafia eat ! The five-dollar tiramisu is a culinary orgasm .
Such a thing exists ?
Fortunately , yes . You're blushing !
Am I ? Um ... my face gets red when I walk too fast .
Well , Miss Li , it's time for us to say good-bye to each other .
Yes , I suppose we must . I have enjoyed all these days that you have spent with me , and I'll always remember them . I've learned a lot from you . Thank you for all your kindness .
I'm glad you could come to see us off . I have enjoyed your interpreting . You have done a wonderful job . I hope you be my interpreter again next time I'm here .
I hope so , too .
It's hard to tear myself away from your friendly people and your ancient country , but nothing lasts for ever . I have to go back home this time , but I'm sure I'll return very soon .
I'm really glad to hear that
Good-bye . Miss Li , say hello to your husband and your son for me . See you soon .
How about the working hours ?
From 9 to 12 a . m . , and 2 to 6 p . m .
Can I ask for a leave ?
Of course , if necessary .
Are there any other jobs waiting for me in the future ?
Seldom .
That's OK . How can my salary be improved ?
Look out ! A small boy is rushing out blindly .
Gee , how dangerous ! I've almost knocked him down .
You stopped just in time . Good for you !
Hey , Susie , what health club do you belong to ?
Total Fitness , why ?
Well , I ' Ve been going to Athletic Express , but I don ' t like it there .
Really ? Why not ? I hear it ' s pretty good .
The people don ' t really work out there . They just stand around and talk all the time .
Oh , it ' s one of those places .
Yeah , is your club different ?
Well , they have different rooms . I lift weights by the pool where there aren ' t so many people .
Do they have a lot of equipment ?
Yeah , they have all the machines , a pool , and a steam room and sauna .
Sounds nice . What about classes ?
The usual . Aerobics , kickboxing , yoga . They just started a Tai Chi class too .
Wow , that sounds great .
Well , I have a guest pass . Why don ' t you come with me tonight ?
Really ? Thanks . I ' ll stop by when I get off work .
Perfect . See you later .
How does the political system work in your country ?
We have hundreds of constituencies and the votes in each one elect a member of parliament . Most people call them mp ' s .
Each mp belongs to a political party , right ?
Almost all of them do . A few are independent . That means that they do not belong to a party . If one party more than half of the mp ' s . they form a government . That means that they choose a prime minister can cabinet members .
What ' s a cabinet ?
This is a small group of people-perhaps 25 mp ' s who are usually ministers . They make all the big decision and discuss laws and policy .
Can any mp make a law ?
Any mp can present a law to parliament . The proposed law is debated and voted on . If it is accepted , it becomes law .
I suppose a proposed a law needs the support of the big political parties .
Yes , it does , because they have most of the mp ' s . most mp ' s vote the way their party wants them to .
How do people choose which party or candidate to vote for ?
You have your ducks in a row .
Come on , darling . We haven't got much time .
All right . I'm nearly ready . What time does the bus leave ?
Half past six ... and it's half past six already .
Oh , we've got plenty of time .
We haven't . Hurry up !
All right . Let ' s go .
I ' m so excited , mother . Oh , a new baby !
My first grandchild .
And my first nephew . He looks a lot like you , mum . He does .
Do you think so ? Well , I guess . He does look a lot like me . Oh , he ' s got Richard ' s eyes though .
Yes , he does have Richard ' s eyes . The baby even looks like you than Richard does .
Well , children usually resemble their parents .
It ' s true . Michelle is a lot like Henry in so many ways . And she is shy with new people just like he is .
You often like comparing children with their parents .
I have an appointment for half past one .
What can I help you with ?
Well , I have a problem with my class schedule .
What is it ?
It seems that I've been given two classes scheduled at the same time .
I can understand the problem with that .
Is there any way that you can fix my schedule ?
No problem , do you want those classes still ?
Yes , I do .
Let me see if I can find one of these classes on another day .
Would you like some coffee , Tom ?
Yes , thank you .
Here's some sugar .
That's a cool jacket . Where did you get it ?
Hello , this is Catharine from Thomson Company . Can I speak to Mr . Wang ?
Sorry , he is in the middle of something . Can I take a message ?
Yes . Please tell him that he is expected to have an interview with the CEO of ABC company tomorrow morning at 10:00 .
Could you please speak in a louder voice ? There may be something wrong with your receiver .
Good morning . How can I help you ?
I'd like to open a new account .
Have you filled out an application form ?
Yes . And I've brought some documents along with me , too . Do you need to see my passport ?
Yes . I'll just have my assistant look over these quickly and then we'll move on to the next step . Did you want to open up a checking account and a savings account ?
Yes . Does the checking account come with a debit card ?
Yes . Actually , both accounts come with cards that you can use in ATM machines , so that you won't have to come in to the bank to make a transaction .
That's very convenient .
It is . Our customers really like it . Do you have any other questions about your new accounts ?
Yes . What's the maximum amount that you are allowed to have in an overdraft ?
The maximum is $ 1000 .
Is there a penalty for having an overdraft ?
Yes , but it's not much . You just have to pay 1 % interest on the account . It's much lower rate than any of our loans and it's much better than owing money to most credit cards .
That's true . Is everything alright with my documents ?
They're all in order . If you just sign your name here , you'll receive your cards and pin numbers in the mail in about three weeks .
Thank you very much .
Thank you for purchasing your new mattress with us .
No , thank you .
Would you like us to deliver the mattress for you ?
That would be great .
When do you want it delivered ?
I need it delivered tomorrow . Will that be possible ?
What time exactly ?
I need it delivered at 12 .
We can have it to you at that time .
That's not a problem ?
We will deliver your mattress tomorrow at 12 o'clock .
Where ' s the wagon ?
Where ' s what wagon ?
The water wagon .
What water wagon ?
The wagon with the water , of course .
That ' s my wagon . I need the water to water my flowers in the yard .
Hello . May I help you ?
Yeah , this dress is really nice ! How much is it ?
That one is one hundred and fifty dollars .
One hundred and fifty dollars ? What about this other one over here ?
That ' s one hundred and forty .
Hmm ... that ' s a bit out of my price range . Can you give me a better deal ?
This is an exclusive design by marco ! It ' s a bargain at that price .
Well , I don ' t know . I think I ' ll shop around .
Okay , okay , how about one hundred dollars ?
That ' s still more than I wanted to spend . What if I take both dresses ?
Okay , I can give you a special discount , just because you seem like a nice person . One hundred and ninety dollars for both .
I don ' t know ... It ' s still a bit pricey ... Thanks anyway .
my final price ! One hundred dollars for both ! That ' s two for the price of one . That ' s my last offer !
Well , Miss Liu , I've enjoyed talking with you . Thank you for your interest in this job .
It's my honor , Mr . Mike . By the way , how can I know whether I am accepted or not ?
We hope to make a decision in the next few days . We'll notify you of our decision by mail , is this convenient for you ?
Yes . Thank you very much . I am looking forward to hearing from you .
Good luck to you , good-bye .
The idea about Friday the Thirteenth is totally ridiculous . I don't believe it at all .
Maybe you can't be so sure .
Why not ? The whole idea is superstitious .
But some people use this occasion to create trouble . Have you heard of the Black Friday Virus on the computer ? It is designed to break out on every Friday the Thirteenth .
Why don ' t you sit down and relax , darling ?
I don ' t want to .
Well , come and talk to me then .
Certainly not .
May I turn on the radio then ?
Turn on the radio ? What for ?
So that we can sit down together and listen to some music .
Listen to some music ? And who ' ll cook dinner ? Will you ?
Ok , I will . But let ' s go to a disco after dinner .
Are these your text books ? Biochemistry , General Ecology , Botany , Cell Genetics , Molecular Genetics ...
Yes . I gotta review all of them for the final exam . It is just around the corner .
Oh , right ! Do you have many exams at the end of each semester ?
That depends . Some semesters have many , some don't . And some courses don't have exams but only ask for papers . That's easy .
And when do you prepare for your final exam ?
Honestly speaking , most students prepare it one month before the exam .
Really ? You only review your lessons in one month ? Does it work ?
Of course , it's useful . And it's very crucial to have the copies of teacher's notes , because most questions in the exam are based on them .
Wow , and all the key points are included in them ? You're so smart !
But the exam is not as simple as you may imagine . We have to stay up late .
Do you have the classrooms open for the whole night ?
Hey Mel ! Are you up for some tennis today ?
Sorry , I can ' t ! I have to go to work , pick up Jake and Maddie from school , and make them an afternoon snack , then take Jake to soccer practice and Maddie to dance class .
You sound exhausted . Maybe you should hire a nanny to help you out ! She can pick the kids up and take them to their after-school activities . She can also help you do some household chores , and run some errands .
Oh , I don ' t know ... it ' s hard to find the right nanny . You have to consider her previous work experience , the responsibilities you give her , and how she interacts with the kids . I would love to have someone to help me out , though .
I think you should definitely consider it ! This way you won ' t have to juggle such a busy schedule , and you ' ll still get to spend time with the kids in the evenings . I can refer you this great nanny Amy . She used to work for my neighbors , before they moved away . She ' s very responsible , a good cook , and great with kids .
What's your favorite hobby ?
I'd like reading books best .
What kinds of books do you like to read ?
Literature and economy .
By the way , would you like to see movies ?
That's OK .
What do you do in your spare time ?
I like to play golf , play badminton or crack jokes .
I just like to sleep like a lazy cat .
I wish I had access to the public library .
Hey , Susan . Have you got a sec ? I have some questions about my paycheck .
You bet , Emily . Pull up a chair .
Well , this is my first paycheck here in the States and there are a few things I don't understand . First of all , what is this FICA , and SUI Y tax , and why are there deductions both for Medicare and for my health insurance plan ?
OK , let's start from the top of your pay stub . This number here represents your gross pay .
Then here we have a series of deductions . First off are the federal ones . FICA stands for Federal Insurance Contribution Act , or something like that . It's your federal income tax . And then there's Social Security and Medicare , which are both federal programs to help you out after you retire or if you were unable to work .
All right , I see . So the Medicare isn't actually a health insurance I can use now .
That's right . Below the federal deductions are the state deductions . There's the state income tax , and then this SUI / SDI tax you were asking about is paying into an unemployment and disability fund that our state has set up , but you can see it's a pretty small quantity that they take .
Yeah , I don't mind giving them a dollar fifty for that . So there are two separate income taxes -- one at a state level and one at a federal level ?
That's right . Not all states have an income tax . Some use higher property taxes or sales taxes instead .
I see . All right , well I think everything else I can figure out on my own . The deductions for health insurance and my 401 ( K ) are pretty self-explanatory . Thanks for your help , Susan .
No problem ! All those deductions do add up , and nobody's net pay is as high as they'd like . I can understand why you'd want some explanation .
There ' re traffic jams everywhere .
I think something must be done .
Yeah . We should have more roads built .
I'm getting so paunchy that I'm afraid I have to buy a new belt to-morrow , and I think I must go on a diet .
You are just a little bit chubby , not paunchy .
You know , I'm a compulsive overeater . I got to watch what I eat .
More physical exercise may help to keep your weight down .
What can I do for you ?
Would you recommend some materials on the World War Two ?
Have you found a particular item from the card catalogue ?
Yes , but I don't think they are enough for me .
Oh , maybe you can find something from the New York Times , or the Washington Post during that period .
That's a good idea . Thanks a lot .
Can you suggest a few exercise to help me get fit and stretch my muscles a little ?
Sure . If you want to stretch your legs , a good exercise is to lift your knee in front of your body , like this . It ' s a very simple exercise , but very effective .
I need to excise my arms too . How can I do that ?
One good way is to do push-ups . Another way is to use weights . Make sure you grip the weights firmly . You don ' t want to drop them on your feet !
When I do push-ups , should I bend my elbows so that my nose touches the ground ?
You don ' t need to bend your elbows that much . Bend them so that your arms are at a 90 degree angle . The most important thing is to remember to keep your body straight . Many people bend the
What ' s a good exercise for my chest muscles ?
One that I recommend is that you lie on your back . You should have a weight in each hand and stretch your arms out side of your body .
So I need plenty of space for this exercise .
Yes , you do . Lift the weight up , keeping your arms straight all the time .
I can't decide whether to go to university or to get a job .
Well , if I were you , I'd go on studying .
But I don't even know what to study .
If I had chance again , I'd major in English . You're good at language .
That's what my parents want me to do .
You should take their advice . They know what's best for you .
But my friends will have jobs and lots of fun , while I spend all my time doing reading and writing .
But if you go to university , you'll still have time for fun .
Hm , what you say makes sense . But you know , I still have to ask my parents for pocket money , and I hate to do so at this age .
And if you try to find a part-time job , you'll have some money too .
When can we expect you and your daughter for dinner ? Next Saturday ?
Next Saturday ? I ' m sorry . I ' Ve promised to go to a Chinese Opera with my daughter .
How about Sunday then ?
Yes , Sunday sounds fine . What time ?
Does six thirty suit you ?
It suits us fine . We ' ll see you then .
Excuse me . I seem to have lost my son .
Take it easy , madam . And speak slowly . May I have your name first ?
Shirley .
What's your son's name ?
Daniel .
Can you describe his appearance to me ?
He is in a blue sportswear and a white sportsshoes . About 1 . 4 meters .
Let's see if we forget anything .
Oh , we need an umbrella . The weather is so changeable in that area .
Yes , let's go . Lock the door , please .
Can you help me pick out a gift for my niece ?
Most normal little girls go wild over Barbie dolls .
That sounds good . Let me see one .
Here's the latest model -- Digital Barbie .
Oh , she's nice . How much is she ?
Why , she's only $ 29 . 95 .
Well , that's reasonable . I'll take it .
Excellent . Would you like anything else ?
No , thank you .
The total will be $ 32 . 42 . Will that be cash ?
Oh , cash will be fine .
Professor , excuse me , but I need to leave early .
What seems to be the problem ?
I am not feeling well .
What is bothering you ?
I think I am beginning to have an asthma attack .
Would you like someone to walk you over to the Student Health Center ?
No , I think that I should just go home because I have some medicine there .
Do you need a ride home ?
I live in the dorms across the street , so I ' ll be OK .
Do you mind if I ask you a question ?
No , not at all . Go ahead .
What do you do in order to improve your English ?
I go to movies ; I go to lectures ; I listen to the radio ; I do lots of things . Most importantly , I practice every chance I get .
It ' s a good idea to have a radio , isn ' t it ?
Sure . It ' s like understanding on the telephone -- -- you can ' t see the speaker ! It ' s great for improving listening comprehension .
It takes a long time to learn a language , doesn ' t it ?
excuse me , is this the way to the Greta Wall ?
oh , it is really far from here . You ' re going in the wrong direction actually .
I must have taken a wrong turn .
it doesn ' t matter . Go back the way you came . After about five kilometers , you ' ll see a hotel on the side of the road . It ' s a big one . You can ' t miss it .
and then ?
take the next right . Drive about one click further , and you ' ll see the entrance of the highway to the Great Wall .
thanks a lot .
you ' re welcome .
by the way , how long does it take ?
without traffic , it takes about an hour .
I heard the Great Wall closes early in the afternoon . Do you think I can make it before closing ?
yes , I think so . It doesn ' t close until 5 o ' clock . You still have plenty of time .
great ! Thank you !
Excuse me . I want to pay the bill .
Please wait till your name is called . OK . Your bill includes the doctor's fee and the cost for a 3 - day supply of medicine . It comes to one hundred yuan .
Here you are .
Good . Here is the receipt . The dispensary is over there ... By the way , will this be covered by your insurance from work ?
No , I'll e paying for myself , but I have private medical insurance .
In that case , I'll give you a certificate , so you can get it reimbursed .
Thanks a lot .
I must admit I'm not at all interested in math .
I'm sure you'll soon begin to like it . It ' s such an interesting subject .
Fill it up with unleaded and check the oil , please .
Do you want me to check the tires ?
No , that's all for now . What does it come to ?
Are you cold ?
Yes , a little .
I wonder if we can change the temperature .
I tried before . There are no buttons on the air conditioning .
There must be buttons . How do they turn it on and off ?
I think it is centrally controlled . They control it at the main desk .
Well , they have it too cold in here . I want to be warmer . I won't be able to sleep .
I'm going downstairs for more drinking water . I will ask them .
What did they say about the air conditioning ?
They said it is centrally controlled . All the rooms are the same . They can't change it .
That's stupid . How can I sleep in this ?
What are you going to do for one year abroad , Tom ?
Study , study , study . I want to learn a lot .
You are going to take courses ?
Yes . I am going to take some university courses there .
Sounds hard .
Yes , but I think it's probably for the best .
Won't you get lonely ?
Sam , what shall I do with my stocks ? Will I lose money ?
There ' s a possibility .
What do you mean by that ?
I mean if you don ' t sell your shares now , it ' s quite likely that you ' ll end up losing your shirt .
Is that so ?
How would you describe your relationship with our boss ?
We have a fairly good working relationship , but there was also a rough spot .
What do you think his strengths are ?
There are so many record players here . That is hard to choose .
Look at this one . It has a radio and cassette player and built in speakers .
I'd rather get one with separated speakers . They give a clear sound .
Yes , but we shouldn't get any thing too big . Remember it has to fit in with our living room furniture .
That's right . Now this one looks alright ? It's a detached or do you prefer this one ? It's Sony .
I have been working 70 hours this week . I am totally maxed out .
May I have the menu , please ?
Oh . I am sorry , here you are . May I suggest our lunch special ?
Could I have a few more minutes ?
I learned of the railway accident only this morning .
A really dreadful accident and many people were killed .
Is that true ?
Yeah , well , I fill you in one the details later .
Did you hear that Mary ' s marriage is on the rocks ?
So I hear .
Yesterday I met Mary , and she told me her husband often made pass at his secretary .
Howdy ! Nice car ! What seems to be the problem ?
I don ' t know ! This stupid old car started spewing white smoke and it just died on me . Luckily , I managed to start it up and drive it here . What do you think it is ?
Not sure yet . How about you pop the hood and we can take a look . Mmmm , it doesn ' t look good .
What do you mean ? My daddy gave me this car for my birthday last month . It ' s brand new !
Well missy , the white smoke that you saw is steam from the radiator . You overheated your engine so now the pistons are busted and so is your transmission . You should have called us and we could have towed you over here when your car died .
Ugh ... So how long is this going to take ? An hour ?
I ' m afraid a bit more than that . We need to order the spare parts , take apart your electrical system , fuel pump and engine and then put it back together again . You are going to have to leave it here for at least two weeks .
How about the repair fee ?
It's for free , because your computers are still in the period of guarantee--two years .
Great ! When can your technicians come to our factory ?
They are working in another factory to provide maintenance right now . Let me call them and see whether they have solved the problem . Please wait a moment .
I've just contacted our technicians . They say they can go to your factory tomorrow afternoon . Can you tell me your factory's address , so they can find you easier ?
That's wonderful . I appreciate your efficiency and cooperation .
To provide the As excellent after-sales service is our motto . Please wait for our maintenance staff in your factory tomorrow afternoon . They will be there on time .
It's a fine day today , isn't it ?
Yes , it is . It ' s wonderful after the downpour .
How nice seeing the sun back again ! The air is so fresh .
I hope it stays nice like this for a long period of time .
Well , the weather is so unpredictable this time of year .
You're right . We don't know what is going to be like tomorrow .
Look ! It looks as if it is going to rain .
The weatherman predicts a fine day today .
What is your favorite coffee ?
Irish coffee is my favorite . But I'm not particular on it .
All right . Would you make coffee yourself when you are at home ?
Not very often . Making coffee is a bit troublesome . Most of the time , I just buy takeout at Starbucks . And also , I quite like instant coffee .
I think instant coffee is becoming more and more popular . Though its taste is not perfect , it's really cheap and convenient .
Exactly . Nescafe is the world's favorite coffee . People love it all over the world .
I agree . I heard that in the western countries , almost everyone likes coffee . Is that true ?
Yes . No doubt about that . For us , coffee is more a living style rather than a simple drink . I heard Chinese people don't drink that much coffee .
No , we don't , especially the elder people . But more and more young people fall for coffee nowadays .
This website offers very convenient air tickets booking service . It is quick and accurate .
Yes , I once booked there . They give the immediate confirm information and flight information to both your mobile phone and e-mail . You can conveniently pay by credit card , so the whole transaction only takes a couple of minutes . They also provide e-tickets , meaning you don ' t need to go to any office to pick an air ticket . You go to the airport directly and check in with your ID card .
So it has attracted more and more customers these days .
My computer isn't working .
Tell me what the problem is .
I'm trying to turn it on , but it won't work .
Try checking the connections .
Which ones are you referring to ?
The cords that you see behind your CPU that plug into an outlet .
Is that why it won't turn on ?
If they're not connected right , that will keep it from turning on .
I did not know that .
You should check the connections .
I'm going to do that .
Passport , please , madam .
Just a minute , please . It ' s in my bag . Here it is .
Thank you . Please fill out the Baggage Declaration Form .
All right . Shall I enter all my belongings ?
Excuse me , could you tell me how to get to the school clinic ? I've lost my way .
Yes . Go straight ahead till you come to the traffic lights , turn left there and it's the first turning on the right .
Straight ahead to the traffic lights , left and then right .
That's it . It'll take you about five minutes .
Excuse me , Is this the bus I should take to get to the Central Park ?
Yes . But you have to transfer to Bus No . 28 .
Where should I change for the Park ?
At Tinge Depot .
But I don't know which stop is Tinge Depot .
I will remind you to get off .
Thank you .
Good morning . Miss Lee . My name is Alex Jones . I'm the new assistant in the office .
Welcome and nice to meet you . I heard you were coming today . Is today your first day here in the company ?
Yes , I'm looking forward to meeting everybody and getting started on my new job .
First day is often exciting , isn't it ? Here , let me show you to your desk . You can have this computer and telephone and share the copy machine with us in the office . How do you like it ?
This is wonderful . Thank you for doing all this for me , Miss Lee .
Tom , aren ' t you a little too old to be trick-or-treating ?
What are you talking about ? Where is your Halloween spirit ? Didn ' t you ever dress up in a costume and go around the neighborhood trick-or-treating with your friends ?
Of course , I did , but when I was ten ! Trick - or-treating is for kids , plus , I ' m sure people will think you ' re a kidnapper or something , running around with kids NCP at night .
Jane , the meeting is scheduled from 1:00 this afternoon . Have you made the necessary arrangements ?
Yes , Mr . Miller . We'll use the conference room on the third floor for the meeting .
That's right . The meeting is very important . Where shall the guests be received before the meeting begins ?
In the dining room . It's spacious there .
We'll have several foreign guests to attend the meeting .
I've arranged for an interpreter to be present . But it is said these foreigners could speak English .
Really ? I'll also try to speak slowly . How would you arrange the guests ' seats , Jane ?
We've prepared name cards to be put on the conference table for guests to sit by . What time would you like refreshments served , Mr . Miller ?
Well , after my report , there will be an interval for rest and refreshments .
we ' Ve got a lot of work to do now , but take your time over this project . We don ' t want to make any mistakes .
ok . I should have it finished by Friday afternoon . Then I can check those account over the weekend . We need to have them finished by Monday , right ?
that ' s right . We ' ll finish them just in time . The Macy project can wait for the time being . We need to spend several days on that project , but it isn ' t due to be finished until the end of the month , s
from next week on , we should be in less of a rush .
I ' m going to give everyone on the team an extra day off . Everyone deserves it .
don ' t say that yet . A new project could suddenly appear .
that ' s true . Right . I ' m going back to the meeting . It ' s been going on for hours and there ' s no indication that it ' ll end soon .
carol said that she would spend some time checking that everyone is up-to-date with their work .
good . I have to go right now . I really hope this meeting doesn ' t last too long .
they usually go on for ages .
I ' ll stop by if I have time later . Make sure everyone knows that we must stick to the deadlines .
Hi , I'm Benjamin . Nice to meet you here . You look great .
Thank you . Nice to meet you too . I'm John . Is this your first time to take a long-distance trip on plane .
No , this is the second time . But I also feel bad because of the lower pressure and the jet lag .
Oh , I am sorry to hear that . Take it easy . It will be OK soon . You see , I take this long-hour plane frequently , but the jet lag still makes me uneasy .
Oh , that's too bad . Do you get a good knowledge of China ?
Yes , whenever I think about China , I'd see the Tian'an Men Square . China is a very beautiful country . And I've seen many landmarks in China but I like the Great Wall most .
All of the Chinese are proud of the Great Wall . And it was built before the In dynasty near Shan Haiguan-the First Pass in the World .
Was it built before the In dynasty ? I thought it was in the Ming dynasty .
No , before the In dynasty .
Oh , yeah . Thought I am an American , I know quite a lot about China and I like Chinese tea very well .
This room is unacceptable . I want a new one , and I want a refund for tonight .
Would you please tell me the exact problem , sir ?
I'm being attacked by hordes of cockroaches !
Oh , my gosh , they're back ? Another room at once , sir , plus a full refund , of course .
Thank you very much . This has been a most unsettling experience .
I need to copy a document immediately .
We have a copy machine in our computer lab , located on the first floor .
Great ! How much is it for a copy ?
The price per copy is ten cents .
That sounds reasonable . I'll be down there immediately .
So click here , then up to the top .
Er ... Hum ... Got it .
Then open that window . Yeah , that one .
Right !
And that's it . You're done .
Hi , Bob ! How are you doing ?
Fine ! How are you ?
I'm fine too , thank you .
I've come to tell you I'm going to the concert this evening . Will you come with me ? I've two complimentary tickets .
With the greatest pleasure . Where is the concert this evening ?
It will be held at the Music Hall .
What's on the program ?
Right , that ends the third and final part of our presentation . I'd like to end by emphasizing the main points . I'll give you a brief summary . There are three potential areas for development in the future , domestic , overseas market , and the internet . Each of these markets have their own particular need for marketing strategy ... for domestic , we can rely on past research , for overseas markets we depend heavily on our cultural consultants , and for the internet , we need to redo our image to appeal to a young set of consumers . Our main issue here is that we need to be sensitive to the needs of different markets in order to continue to see success . Mark , did you have anything to add ?
What do you do in your spare times ?
I have many hobbies . I like most all kind of sports , and I also like to listen to classic musics .
What sports do you like best ?
Football . It ' s a very exciting game , because it keeps you alert , and I also enjoying the team spirit of football .
Do you like reading books ?
Yes . I enjoying reading biographs , especially those of well-known statesmen , militarists , scientist and artists , I can learn a lot from their life histories .
Who are you favourite authors ?
Hello . Is Becky there , please ?
Just a moment , please . I ' ll see if she ' s free .
Thanks .
Sorry , Becky can ' t come to the phone right now .
How about the hiking ? It was freezing yesterday , are you all ok ?
Can ' t be better , it was wonderful . We had a lot of fun there . There was so much joy and walk and breathe the winter air . We arrived at the park at 9 o ' clock in the morning and didn ' t leave till 3 o ' clock in the afternoon .
You had been walking for 6 hours , isn ' t that boring ?
Of course not ! We built a snowman , some snow dogs and one big snow fort . We went sliding on the nice hill . It was a real work out . At noon , we had the most special winter picnic outside . Fortunately , we got it all on a video tape . You must come with us next time . I bet you will love it .
Hello . Did you enjoy the tour of our new premises ?
Yes , I did indeed . But , could you tell me what exactly the ' Priority Service Room ' is used for ?
Of course . As we provide many different services for all of our valued customers , we like to give than a special place to do their business with us .
I think of myself as a valued customer . What services can you offer me ?

You should declare the camera and the film . Do you have alcohol ?
Yes , I have got some special local product , I want to take them for my friends .

OK . I understand .
Or we can call you tomorrow coming .
Well , I would prefer you to call me up tomorrow at 6:30
Mark , you are not telling me the truth . Now why ?
Promise you are not going to be angry ?
Yes , all right . So why ? Go on then . Say it . Oh , really , Mark . I promise I'm not going to be angry . Now why were you late ?

You forgot ? You ...
I have some photos here taken by myself . Would you like to see them ?
Sure . Speaking of photos , what type of film will be the best ? You know , I'm planning a tour to Jiuzhaigou Valley .
I would get Fuji 200 film for taking photos of natural beauty .

That's good . Do you suppose you will be back at company the day after tomorrow ?
I hope so . And I will definitely tell you if I can not .
Why did Tom quit the job ?
He said his present job seemed to be a blind alley .
So do you believe in palmistry ?
Palmistry ? What is that ?
It's when someone takes a look at another person's palm to tell the future .
Oh , you mean palm reading . I've seen that before , but I don't believe in it .
Are you sure ? I've read a lot about palmistry and I've been able to tell a lot of accurate things about a person from his palm . Do you want me to take a look at your hand ?
Really ? You've read books about it ? Ok , then . But only if you want to .
Ok , let's see , well , you've got a long life line , which is good , and the love line is strong ...
What else do you see ? Will I be successful ? Will I make a lot of money ?
Hmm , hard to say , wait , yes , it looks like you will do well in business , and your ambition will help you a lot , but ...
What ? What is it ? What's the matter ?
May I see your airplane ticket , passport and health certificate please ?
Here you are .
Will you please put all your luggage on the scale ?
I want to check these three pieces and I'll carry this overnight bag by myself .
Sir , your bags are 30 pounds over weight . You are allowed only 45 pounds of baggage .
Well , then , how much do I owe you ?
not a single email until now ? it's already twelve o'clock . I can't believe it !
can't bear it , right ? I've been there before . I'll feel comfortable if no one calls me or sends me text messages , like there is something missing .
yeah , that's right . If no one sends me test messages , I'll go crazy .
actually , this is a kind of addiction called " infomania " or " information overload " .
addiction ? checking emails and text messages often can be called an addiction ? no way !
yes , it is . Do you consider a frequent check of your income emails to be an integral part of your working day ?
absolutely .

A cup of coffee , please , with cream and sugar .
The cream and sugar are on the table , sir .
Oh , yes .
Would you like to order some dessert ?

Ice cream , fresh fruit or chocolate cake .
I think I will have a dish of Vanilla ice cream .
Yes , sir .
Waiter , may I have my check , please ?
What's going on ?
Not much .
This Friday , I'm throwing a party .
Oh really ? I didn't know that .
Are you serious ?
I haven't heard anything about it .
Can you make it ?
What time does it start ?
The party starts at 8 .
Yeah , I think I'll go .
Am I going to see you there ?
How big is your family ?
My family is not big , there are only 3 of us-my parents and I .
Who supports the family ?
My father supports the family , and he is the sole breadwinner . My mother is a housewife .
Do you live with your family ?
Hello .
Mark , this is Lucy .
What's up ?
I have a friend . He is my best friend and he wants to learn English . He would pay about 100 yuan per hour . Are you interested ?
I don't know .
So I take it you are not interested .
No , Lucy . Don't get me wrong . I mean school will be open on Sept . 2nd , and I will have a very tight schedule by then .
Don't worry . My friend says he can always arrange his schedule around your schedule .
That will be fine . When can I see him ?
Let's do it this way . I'll take him to your place this Saturday . Then you two can make a schedule .
Make sure you come here before noon . I will be picking up my friend at the airport in the afternoon .
How are you going to get there ?
By bus , of course .
I am sure my friend can give you a ride .
Great . By the way , what does your friend do ?
He is a lawyer .
Ok , see you then .
I've heard that you provide very good service , so when I need a mover , I call you guys first .
Thanks a lot for calling us . Could you tell me more about what you need us to do ?
Oh , you see , we are on the 8th floor , and moving into the 6th floor in another building . It is about 15 kilometers to get there .
OK , the cost depends on the floor to move to , the distance between two places and the amount of the furniture to move .
How much will it cost in that case ?
Oh , let me see . It fits the second standard rates . Have a look at the contract , please .
Your charge is divided into two parts , the Payment in Advance and the rest . I thought that I should pay all of it before moving .
No , firstly we sign the contract ; you pay 50 % of what it costs , and the rest when we finish moving .
The damage and compensation item confuses me . Could you give some explanation ?
Well , we've been waiting for our luggage for about one hour .
What kind of bag is it ?
It's blue , Samsonite bag .
What are your room number and your name , please ?
This is room eleven-seven and my name is Terry Chen .
Well , let me check . We delivered four bags to room 1106 , you friend's room about an hour ago .
My friend's room ? Oh , I see . Thanks a lot .
Tom did me many favors .
Mr . Li , does the recommendation of the university play an important role in job hitting ?
Yes . In fact , the recommendation is a way of indirect self-recommendation . The university and the business have a long-term relationship . If you are recommended by your university , you can be approved more easily .
But I doubt the authority because most of the recommendation letters of the university are the same .
Jenny , are you having a good time ?
Yes , of course . This is a really wonderful party with interesting people and great food .
I ' m glad you are enjoying yourself .
Thank you for the invitation .
It ' s my pleasure . Can I get you another glass of champagne ?
Yes , I ' d love another glass . You ' re a wonderful host . Thank you for everything .
What's the weather forecast for today ?
Cloudy in the morning , overcast in the afternoon .
Any rain ?
No , but I wouldn't be surprised if it rained tomorrow .
Excuse me , do you have any English songs ?
Yes , we do . They are all in this book .
Great , thanks .
No problem . Just give us a few minutes more to pull them up , though . We don ' t get that many English singers !
Did you hear what happened to Mike in Accounts ?
No . What ?
He got arrested on Friday night and spent the night in jail .
No . Really , what happened ?
Well , it was all a big mistake , actually . He got home on Friday night really late , and apparently he'd been out drinking with some clients , so he was really drunk .
Was he out with the guys from the bank ?
Yes , I think so .
Oh , yeah , they always get really drunk .
Well , anyway , he'd somehow lost his wallet and his house keys , so he couldn't get in . He lives alone , you know .
Oh , really . I thought he lived with his wife .
No , she left him last year .
Oh , really ? Do you know why ?
Hang on , let me finish telling you what happened . Where was I ?
He lost his wallet and keys .
Oh yes , well , he tried to climb in through the bathroom window , but apparently he slipped and broke the glass with his foot . The neighbors heard him and thought a robbery was in progress , so they called the police .
Oh , no .
Yes . So when the cops arrived , they didn't believe his story
So then what happened ?
Well , when he sobered up , he called someone from work to come and bail him out .
Well , that's a bit of a tricky situation .
How are you doing ?
Great . Thanks for asking .
What can I do for you today ?
I would like to deposit some money .
Are you depositing cash or a check ?
I want to deposit cash .
How much are you depositing ?
I would like to deposit $ 300 .
What account do you want your money in ?
I want to deposit it into my checking account .
Do you need anything else ?
Good evening , madam . May I help you ?
Yes , do you have a table for five ?
Yes , would you like smoking or non-smoking ?
We'd like a non-smoking room , please .
Dan , Dan , dude . You have to come over to my house right now !
Is everything OK ?
Just get over here !
Come in ! Quickly !
So , since when is your house a bank ?
What do you mean ?
I mean , what ' s up with the locks and iron bars on your windows .
Security , Dan , security ! You can never be too safe you know ! A lot of sickos out there . Just the other day they caught that peeping tom red handed ! Had a high power telescope and binoculars by his window .
What ' s the matter with you ? Why are you acting all paranoid ?
Paranoid ? I ' m not paranoid ! I ' m cautious ! You see Dan , we have to be on guard at all time ! People just invade your privacy as if they knew you ! Telemarketers , solicitors , even your bank ! They have way too much information ! I like to keep everything on a need to know basis .
OK , well , what did you want to see me about ?
What upsets you ?
My parents called . As usual , they reminded me again that I should have a plan to marry by my late 20s . Easier said then done . Who should I marry ? I have no time to go on a date .
It is not your mother finding one for you ?
I will find one myself , of course . I ' m a modern girl .
Perhaps you can try the three minutes date , the latest type .
You mean dozens of the opposite sex meet each other for three minutes in a dimly bar serving alcohol , I hate that idea .
No , there is an updated virgin , three minutes video date . I know an online dating website providing such service with a microphone and webcam , you can sigh for it . You can be face-to-face with a guy talking for maximum three minutes .
I don ' t think it makes sense . Three minutes is such a short time .
I think you can find out if there is a possibility of romance within the first second of meeting someone , so-called love at first sight .
Anyway , I don ' t want to post my face up for sale on the internet like that .
Don ' t worry . There are many other options using the internet as dating methods . Some sites operate at international standard even have got certifications . Of course , for these sites , you have to pay a membership fee . But all in all , it is more serious and professional . The chance of meeting a good and serious person who does not play games is higher .
I see that there are Olympic mascots in your car .
Yes . I am very interested in the Olympic Games , and I'm especially excited about 2008 Beijing Olympics .
Me , too . I want to be a volunteer for 2008 Beijing Olympics .
That's cool . Care for a little quiz on that ?
No problem . I'm an ' Olympic expert ' .
Wow , you've talked the talk . Now it's time to walk the walk . Here we go . First , can you tell me something about the ancient Olympics ?
The ancient Olympics originated in ancient Greece .
Good . Why do people name it Olympics ?
They name it after the place where it was first held .
Who started the modern Olympics ?
This question is a piece of cake . A Frenchman named Baron de Coubertin .
What did people call him ?
Of course he was called ' the father of the Olympics ' .
What did he do for restoring the Olympics ?
He once made a speech on the ' Renaissance of the Olympics ' .
Well , that's for all . Excellent !
Let me take care of the check today .
Why ? It's unfair . How about going dutch ?
You paid the last time , because I didn't have any money , remember ?
Oh , come on , I almost forgot . Don't worry about it . I didn't mind picking up the tab last time .
But you really should let me treat one time , I feel like I own you one if I didn't .
Ok , but it's only for this time .
What's the damage ?
It's 12 dollars 80 cents all together . But don't forget the tip , it usually 15 % .
My sister was taken to the hospital yesterday
What happened ?
She was hit by a car . Luckily , she wasn't seriously hurt .
Let's buy some flowers , and pay her a visit
We'll have to hurry ; visiting hours will be over soon
Bill , do you know when did the Chinese begin to celebrate Teachers ' Day ?
I know the Chinese teachers had their first festival in 1985 .
So , it is the 27th Teachers ' Day .
What will you do on Teachers ' Day ?
I am going to send Mr . Li some flowers . What about you ?
how was school today , Dominic ?
I hate school !
why ? What happened ?
I messed up my mid-term exam so badly today !
it's just one exam . Can you re-take the exam ?
yes , but it's so humiliating ! I don't want my friends to know I failed !
why didn't you do a good job ?
I don't know . I sat down in my seat , looked at my paper , and then my mind just went totally blank .
do you think you studied enough for the exam ?
no ...
what did you do last night ?
I watched TV .
did you study at all last night for your exam ?
no , not really .
I am sure if you had studied , you would have done well . When can you re-take your exam ?
tomorrow .
isn't it wonderful walking here ?
what do you mean ?
I mean look at all these magnificent tall buildings around us .
yes , look over there . That's the Empire State Building . My book says it's 102 stories tall .
it's quite famous but don't you think it looks a bit old-fashioned ?
you're right , but when it was built in 1930 it was a marvel of technology and engineering .
what other important buildings are we going to see on Fifth Avenue ?
quite a number . Actually every skyscraper has a history . A few blocks ahead we'll see St . Patrick ' s Cathedral and just across the street will be the world-renowed Rockefeller Center . It's a landmark
what's there after that ?
well then , there's a Central Park . Facing the park on Fifth Avenue is probably some of the most expensive properties in the world .
what are all they for ?
David , have you watched the 82nd Oscar Awards Ceremony ? Avatar got the Award of Visual Effect . The movie sounds great !
You are so old-fashioned . I have already watched it last week in cinema .
How was it ?
Its 3D animation is attractive and its colorful scenes are also unforgettable .
It is said that The Hurt Locker got the Award of Best Picture . What do you think about this ?
Mary didn't pass the final exam in physics .
She must be very sad .
Her parents scolded her severely and she's very depressed now .
Do you know which stop we get off at ?
We still have more to go , I think .
We've been on this bus for a while now .
You're right .
Should we have gotten off the bus already ?
I don't think so .
I thought you knew .
Maybe we did miss our stop .
Really ?
I'm positive that we missed our stop .
I'm never catching the bus with you again .
Today people are hearing about information superhighways and the intermet .
Is this change going to be beneficial for theindividuals like you and me .
Yes , I think so . My friend once used it mostly to play chess , but now he has learnt how to do other things on the Internet .
There's no doubt the Internet will be a powerful commercial medium . It'll connect hundreds of millions of customers and open up huge markets for all kinds of products and services .
That's true . I can imagine companies sending advertisements directly to customers over the net . Customers , in turn , can examine and compare whatever goods they want to buy and tell their computers to find them at the best price offered .
Hey , Robert , what are you doing this weekend ?
I didn't have any big plans .
We are putting together a birthday party for Mary .
That sounds like fun . Where will it be ?
We thought it would be fun to have a pool party at Jay's house .
Oh good ! Can I bring anything ?
We will be providing hot dogs , hamburgers , and cake , but people can bring side dishes .
I am assuming that the dress is casual .
Dress casually and bring your bathing suit !
What's the problem ? You don't look happy .
I failed my oral test .
How come ?
I'm not practicing enough .
Why don't you go to the English corner to talk to your classmates in English quite often ?
When I talk to Chinese , I always want to speak Chinese .
Welcome to Adventure Tours . How may I help you ?
I want to book a tour with adventure sports .
Excellent ! Our company has more than ten years of experience in the adventure tourism and sports field . Let me show you some options . This is our most popular choice , our river guides will take you
I don ' t really think I ' m ready to throw myself down a river full of jagged rocks in a rubber boat or go up in the air in a wicker basket held up by an oversize balloon . What else do you have ?
Well , in that case , we can take you hang gliding with one of our experienced instructors . It ' s the closest you can get to flying .
What ? You mean strap myself to a flimsy kite ? No , thank you ! Next !
Mmm . OK . Well , why don ' t you tell me a little bit more about what you would like ? We have everything from mountain biking , to rock climbing to street luge .
I ' m thinking something exciting but safer .
I have the perfect option , this package will take you on a hiking trip through the Himalayas for three days and afterwards there ' s a dog sledding journey !
Hello , Pauline ' s Furniture Store , Faye speaking . How may I help you ?
Hello , I ordered a dining table last week . The order arrived today , but there are several scratches on the surface of the table . I would like to exchange it .
I ' m terribly sorry about that . We could take it back and deliver a new one to you early next week . Would that suit you ?
Well , I'm hosting a dinner party this weekend . Couldn ' t you make it any sooner ?
Please hold on , I'll just check with the delivery department .
I'm freezing . Turn down the air conditioner , will you ?
But then it'll be too warm .
Hello ?
Hi , Randy . What are you doing right now ?
Nothing . Just watching TV .
I ' Ve got two tickets for a newly released film . Would you like to see it with me ?
Sure . What time ?
The film will start at 2
Sounds good . Where and when will we meet ?
In my parking lot , at 2pm .
I have a problem .
What's the problem ?
My mattress was supposed to be delivered today .
Is there a problem ?
The delivery people showed up four hours late .
I apologize for their tardiness .
I was late for work because of them .
Again , I do apologize for the inconvenience .
I want my money back for the delivery .
Seeing as they were late , that won't be a problem .
It shouldn't be a problem .
It would be nice to go to the beach sometime this weekend .
What's the weather going to be like ? I may want to go too .
The weather this weekend is supposed to be warm .
Will it be good beach weather ?
I think it will be .
It wouldn't be good if it got cold this weekend .
I want this trip to be perfect , I hope it stays warm .
This California weather is so uncertain , it's impossible to know what'll happen .
I know . Every day the weather seems different .
I would love it if it wasn't always so unpredictable .
That would make it easier for us to make plans .
How are the children doing at sport ?
I ' m very pleased with their performances . Timmy can cover the 100 meters in 12 seconds . That ' s very fast for a kid his age .
He ' s not very good at the long jump though , is he ?
He ' s not bad . He can jump a distance of over four meters . I think he just prefers running to jumping . Jimmy ' s very good at the high jump . He can jump over two meters . Again , that ' s fine for someone hi
Two meters ? That means that the high jump bar is above his head ! Are any of them good at long-distance running ?
The longest race we run is the 1500 meters . A few of the boys and one girls can do it in less than five minutes .
How are they at swimming ?
They ' re ok . I ask them to swim 500 meters each day . That ' s 20 lengths of the swimming pool . They ' re not very fast , but that ' s ok . I just want them to build their strength up and keep in shape .
Kate is very good at diving from a height of 10 meters .
I ' d be afraid to jump from that height !
I think that these kinds haven ' t learnt to be afraid yet . She started diving from a lower height , but she soon wanted to go higher .
Are you ready to order now , Sir ?
May I have the menu , please ?
Yes , here you go .
I'd like to have some local specialties . Would you recommend for me , please ?
Sure , the Huanghe carp with sugar and vinegar is famous in our restaurant .
OK . We'll take it .
Anything else ?
A fried crisp chicken and an eggplant with chili sauce .
How about drink ?
Good morning , Japan Airline domestic reservations . Can I help you ?
Yes . I Would like make a reservation to Huston for tomorrow .
The flight to Huston takes off daily every two hours from 6:00 to 11:00 pm . So you don't need a reservation . Seats are available on a ' first come , first served ' basis .
Yesterday was April the first .
Was it quite special ?
Not for the others , but for me . I was in the library going over my lessons when suddenly one of my roommates came in . He told me that I was wanted on the phone in my dormitory , and that person would call me again several minutes later .
Did you hurry back to the bedroom ?
Yes . I went back to the dorm only to find my roommates laughing and shouting " April Fool , April Fool " .
Oh , your classmates took you in .
May I help you , sir ?
I want to try on this suit .
Certainly . Here's a mirror .
I'm afraid it's too narrow across the shoulders . Do you have a larger one ?
Yes . This one must fit you .
It's a bit loose . Do you have a middle size ?
I'm afraid not , sir .
Our house is too small . We had better have a big one .
How could we ever manage to buy a big house when we are always living beyond our means ?
Hey Joanne . What are you up to ?
I'm just watching some television .
I'm so bored . I don't know what I'm going to do today and it is only ten in the morning .
Me too . Do you think we are boring people ?
I don't think we are boring . It's just that we don't have any hobbies .
That's right . What do you think we should do as a hobby ?
That all depends on what you like to do . For example , I like to doodle on the notepad , so I'm thinking about doing some real drawings .
I like to play the piano for fun .
Yeah . That can be a good hobby .
Hobbies are great . I'm going to make a list of all the things I like to do .
What are you doing over the weekend , Sara ?
I'm planing to go bowling tonight . Tomorrow I was hoping to see a movie . What about you ?
I want to go camping , you know , just get a way for the weekend . I'm not sure I'll be able to , though .
Why not ?
My throat is really dry .
Do you want to go get something to drink ?
Yes , I'm parched .
What did you want to drink ?
I was thinking about getting a soda .
Do you know that soda doesn't quench your thirst ?
Why not ?
Soda is really bad for you .
I don't know what else to drink .
You're supposed to drink water when you're dehydrated .
I would like some water .
Hey , Ann , I am really sorry about last night . I shouldn't have said those things to you .
I am sorry too . I know we've been talking about this beach trip for a while . I should have told Bob I was busy this weekend .
don't be silly . You guys should spend as much time together as you can . Besides we can go to the beach anytime .
thanks for understanding .
well that's what being friends is about , isn't it ?
hey , what if the three of us go to the beach together ? Besides , you and Bob haven't seen each other for a while . I don't want my best friend and my boyfriend to be complete strangers .
Nah , I wouldn't worry about that . But I don't want to be the third wheel . You two should have some quiet time to yourselves .
I know Bob won't mind . You can bring a date , like that guy from the bar you keep talking about .
maybe ... I'll think about it .
Welcome , Ron , come on in !
Hi , Malia ! What a nice home !
We enjoy it too !
How long have you lived here ?
About four years now .
Well , it is very beautiful .
Ron , have a seat and I'll get us something to drink .
Good ! I am really thirsty . You know it really is hot outside !
I have lemonade , iced tea , and mango juice .
Steward !
Yes , ma'am ?
May I have a magazine or something ?
Certainly . Just a moment . I'll be right back with one . Which do you prefer , one in English or in Chinese ?
One in English , please .
Can you tell me where the produce is ?
It's in aisle A .
Do you know what produce is on sale ?
let's go swimming .
But , we just finished eating lunch .
I know , but I'm really hot .
Can we go to the beach on foot ?
Oh , it's too far to walk there . We can take a bus .
Is the bus station close by ?
What is the proper way to handle a napkin at dinner ?
Ordinarily , as soon as you are seated , you put your napkin on your lap .
How about at a formal dinner ?
Do you know that Mary ' s marriage is on the rocks ?
Really ? I ' Ve never heard of it !
I saw her husband have it out with her yesterday .
Hello , may I speak to Mr . Robert the Human Resources Manager ?
Wait a minute . I will get him here . Sorry , he is busy doing something . Why don't you give him a ring later ?
OK , that's fine . Thank you .
Here you are . How is Danny ?
Better now . We are just back from the hospital . We were lucky to meet a well-known doctor .
What did the doctor say ?
He said that he had a really bad cold .
Shall we go back home now ?
The dispensary closed . Here is the given prescription .
I bought some advanced medicine . Is there anything you need ?
Probably not . Some medicine we need is ethical drug which you can't buy without a prescription .
Now what ?
I'll go back home with Danny . You go to the pharmacy again .
Okay , this is the third time .
What ? How come ? The third time ?
You don't have to know . Bye for now .
Dutton Hotels . How may I help you today ?
I wanted to check rates and availability for your San Francisco location .
Certainly , I can help you with that . Will that be the downtown or waterfront location ?
The waterfront location .
What date do you plan to check in ?
I'd like to check in on October 12th and check out the 15th .
Okay , let me see what we have . For how many ?
One . And , if possible , I'm looking for a non-smoking room .
Sure , we have a non-smoking queen with an ocean view for $ 189 or a standard room with a courtyard view for $ 139 a night .
I'd like to book the standard room .
Okay , your last name ?
Rama .
And , your first name ?
Jeff .
Okay , I have you booked in a standard non-smoking queen , checking in on October 12th and departing the 15th . What major credit card would you like to use to guarantee the reservation ?
A Visa .
The number and expiration ?
It's 7388-2424- 3535-1818 and the expiration is 05/08 .
Your confirmation number is PD672 . Is there anything else I help you with ?
No , that's all . Thanks .
Do you know that Jack got divorced last month .
For what reason .
Jack always lives by his wits and he cannot support his family .
Could you do something to advance your shipment ?
It's hard to say . But why ?
We expect the goods to be on the market before the end of December to catch up with the Spring Festival sales .
I am sorry to say this but I seem to have lost the key to the safe .
Where do you think you lost it ? Outside the hotel ?
Yes , I believe so . How should I compensate for this ?
I am afraid , Ma'am , you have to pay 100 US dollars since you lost the key .
What ? 100 US dollars ? Is it covered by the insurance ?
Welcome . What can I do for you this morning ?
I'm here on holiday and I don't have a local debit card . Is it possible to withdraw money on my Visa credit card here ?
Well , welcome to our country . I trust you are having a pleasant stay ?
Oh , yes . It's amazing here . I don't think I ever want to go home again !
That's the opinion of most people . Do you have your passport with you ? I'll need to see that and you'll need to fill in this withdrawal form .
Fine . Here you go .
How much would you like to withdraw ?
Is it OK to withdraw USD ?
That's fine .
OK , 200 USD , please .
Here's your money , your card and your passport . Please double check the amount for me .
Where did you get your mobile ? It's really cute .
Oh , this ? I got it in Singapore . Here , do you want to take a look ?
Thanks . Gee , it's really light !
Yes , it is , isn't it ? A bit too light , really . What make have you got ?
I've got an old Ericsson . Here . Take a look .
Wow , that's really old .
Yes , I like collecting antiques .
Why don't you get a new one ?
I don't know . I like this one , and I don't have any need for all the bells and whistles you get on the new ones .
Really , what makes you say that ?
Well , I just need to make and receive calls , and it's quite reliable . I find that the more fancy stuff they put into these things , the more likely they are to break bown or go wrong , you know ? I mean , this camera function , for instance-how often do you use it ?
Sometimes , but I guess not very often . It's more for fun . Sometimes when I'm on a trip , for example , I can take a picture and send it to my kids . Or I can send a picture of a sample back to my office and get it costed up immediately .
Well , that's nice I guess . So how many kids do you have ?
Excuse me , I'm looking for your English textbooks .
They're right over there , next to the dictionaries .
Do you have any textbooks to help improve students ' reading skills ?
Let ' s see . These books here focus on grammar , and those are mainly for conversation practice ... Here we are . This book has short passages for students to read and answer questions about .
Do you mind helping me ?
What can I help you with ?
I'm not sure how to find my next class .
Do you know what building that it's in ?
The C building , I think .
Well , that's not far away .
Could you point me in that direction ?
Do you know what the room number is ?
It's C261 .
My next class is around there .
Can you show it to me ?
have you read the feature article about Oprah Winfrey in this magazine ?
no , what's it about ?
apparently , she's being given an award for donating so much money to charity .
she's very generous with her money . I think that's because she was poor when she was young .
I heard that she's one of the wealthiest women in the world .
I'd believe it . She owns magazines , television shows and she has a huge fan base .
you know ; I heard that she was opening a school for underprivileged girls in Africa .
did they mention that in the article ?
yes , she's not only building the school , but is also using her own money for the upkeep of the school and to pay the teachers a fair salary .
that's really commendable . I think more celebrities should use their money to help people like Oprah has .
I agree . So many celebrities waste their money on sports cars , expensive clothing , and luxurious hotels .
it's amazing how much money they can spend . I heard Britney Spears once spent $ 24,000 a night on a hotel room !
Wow . That girl who brings the fruit is really pretty ! I wish she wouldn't have rushed off so fast ...
Hey , it's an English song ! Sing with us , Ryan !
" Tie a Yellow Ribbon on the Old Oak Tree " ? ! Where did you learn that song ?
Everyone in Taiwan knows it . Come on ! Sing with us !
What a good day !
Yes . It's really wonderful here The grass is greener and the air is fresher than those in the city .
Right . Let's go out and enjoy the beautiful natural scenery .
Great , let's go .
Wow , what a beautiful lake ! The green hills and clear water really provide magnificent scenery .
En , it's so beautiful that I don't want to move my eyes from it .
I feel as if I'm living in a different world , honey .
The same to me . All the things here make me happy , the mountain , the water , the grass , the birds , the sunshine ...
I think we should go out more frequently . The natural scenery can do us good .
That's the point . We should walk into the nature and enjoy its beauty whenever we have time .
Hello , who's that speaking ?
I am calling about the advertisement for a flat with a bedroom . Do you still have it now ?
Yes , I do .
Is there any furniture in it ?
Yes , it's fully furnished .
What's the rent for a year ?
15,000 Yuan , including water , but electricity and gas .
Where is it located ?
It's in International Trade Zone . It's only ten minutes ' walk from the nearest subway station .
That's great . But can you make the rent cheaper , let's see , 12,000 Yuan ?
The price can be talked over . How about coming around and taking a look at it first ?
OK . I will be free at tomorrow afternoon . I'll take a taxi to get there .
Will you help me take these things to the car ?
OK , which car do you want me to put them in ?
Bring them to my wife's car .
Which one is hers ?
The blue SUV in front of the Honda .
What should I take first ?
That chair over there , but please be careful with it . It was a gift from my mother-in-law .
Don't worry , I won't drop it . Wow , it's really heavy . I don't think I can move it by myself .
Let me help you with that . I don't want you to hurt your back .
Where are you taking all this stuff ?
Didn't I tell you ? We're moving to Florida ?
You're moving now ? I knew you were moving , but I thought you said you were moving next month .
May I help you with something ?
I would like to return these books .
What happened to this book ?
I dropped it , and the cover tore off .
I ' m going to have to charge you for the damage .
How much ?
It ' s only $ 5 .
That ' s not too bad .
I know it ' s not .
Here ' s the money for the book .
Thank you for your payment .
How do you do ?
How do you do ?
My name is Jane Greenwood . Glad to meet you .
Hello ! Let me introduce myself . My name is Nancy .
Nice to meet you , I'am Simon . I don't think I ' Ve seen you around before .

No idea . Your guess is as good as mine .
It better be more than last year .
Good morning . I'd like to buy 2 tickets .

Read Jimmy's card to me please , Janey .
I have just arrived in Scotland and I'm staying at a Youth Hostel .
Eh ?
He says he's just arrived in Scotland . He says he's staying at a Youth Hostel . You know he's a member of the Y . H . A .
The what ?
The Y . H . A . , mun . The Youth Hostel's Association .
What else does he say ?
I'll write a letter soon . I hope you are all well .
What ? Speak up , Janey . I'm afraid I can't hear you .
He says he'll write a letter soon . He hopes we are all well . Love , Jimmy .
Is that all ? He doesn't say very much , does he ?
Good afternoon , Mr Meng . It's a little late for you , isn't it ?
Hello , Miao Ping . Yes , I've been stuck in back to back meetings all day , but I really wanted to come and speak to you .
What can I help you with ?
I'm interested in putting some of my money into investment tools , you know , something other than stocks and such like . Do you have any ideas ?
Mmmm ... yes , many investors don't seem to be into stocks at the moment . Too risky ! How about Open-Ended funds ?
Yes , I've heard about that . Isn't it where many investors pool their money together ?
Exactly . Then each individual has the chance to diversify their portfolio over many different areas , it doesn't have to be stocks . And , we provide a Professional Fund Manager , so you know your investment will be safe with us .
How can you help me to decide which areas to invest in ?
Our Investment Financing Service will help you choose where to put your funds and look at both the pros and cons of each .
The telephone is ringing . Can you answer it , Sue ?
OK , I'll get it . It's for you , Jeff .
Can I help you , Madam ?
Yes . I'd like to buy a sweater for my husband . Which style is the latest ?
These are all the latest fashion . How do you like this white turtleneck one ?
I like this style . But do you have any other colors ? I feel that this color doesn't suit his complexion .
We also have it in grey .
Great ! I will take it . And could you suggest a pair of trousers to match this sweater ?
It's my pleasure . I think this pair of jeans will suit the sweater well .
Can you lend me fifty bucks ?
What ? Again ? Why do you keep running out of money ?
I guess I don't earn enough .
No , I think it's how you budget your life , that's the problem .
That's my business , not yours .
True enough , until the time comes that you need to take my money . I don't know where you're wasting your money but I think you need to take a look at what's really important .
So how do you survive from pay day to pay day ?
I don't just survive . I put money away as well . I know when I get paid where most of the cash will go , and I stick to my plan . If I follow a budget I don't have any nasty surprises .
I'm not disciplined enough I guess .
I'm worrying that she may be lost .
Be relaxed . She is familiar with the area .
After all , she is a five-year-old kid .
Greg . I want to speak to you for a minute .
Yes . Ms . Gray . Is there something wrong ?
I ' m afraid there is , Greg . I don ' t mind you taking a break . But you ' Ve been away from your desk for twenty-five minutes already .
Hello , this is Lucy from ABC Company .
Hello , Lucy .
I ' m calling to see if you have made your decision . You are the right person we are seeking for .
Yes , I have decided to work with your company .
Good news for us . When can you start to work ?
It ' s my honor to be one member of your company . I ' d like to begin to work any time as you like .
Ok , please come to my office at 9 AM next Monday . I will introduce you to our boss .
No problem . Thank you for calling me .
Miss Green , do you have life insurance right now ?
No , I don't . I don't have a family , so I don't think I need it .
This year our company is offering a new plan especially for single people like you . I think you might be interested .
Thank you , but I've never thought about it before .
When you are in a restaurant and you want the waiter to bring the bill , what do you do to attract his attention ?
I just make eye contact with him and nod my head . Then I tell him when he comes over to the table . Why do you ask ?
I went out with my girlfriend to a nice restaurant last night and I noticed that many people shouted for the bill .
That seems a little impolite in such a restaurant .
That ' s what I thought . I just thought I ' d ask you and see what you thought of it . Anyway , what did you do yesterday evening ?
Well , it was a warm evening , so I stretched my legs . I walked along the canal for a couple of miles . Actually , several other people had the same idea . I saw Bill .
Did you ? How is he these days ?
He seemed ok . We didn ' t stop and chat because we were on opposite banks of the canal . We just waved at each other .
I need to move some furniture . Could you help me to lift it ?
Of course . What do you want to move first ?
Excuse me , sir , since my train leaves at 16:00 . Have you a 3 - hour tour ?
You are lucky , sir . We are about to set out . It's a tour to the White House .
Well , I have just missed the place . How long does the tour take ?
2 hours . You won't get late for your train .
Rachel ? I ' m not sure how you want to handle this account . I think there are a few things to be sorted out .
I agree , Toni . I think the biggest problem we ' re facing is how to bring it in under budget .
That ' s true . But even beyond that , there ' s the question of meeting the deadlines they ' Ve set .
Good morning . I've come here to inquire whether I can get a visa to your country ?
What do you want to go to US for ?
I have been invited to teach Chinese at the University of Hawaii for two years .
Can I have a look at your letter of acceptance ?
Of course . Here you are .
Would you mind doing something for me ?
I would if I could .
Will you please explain the meaning of this word ?
I have a complaint to make . I've just been badly treated by a rude maid .
Well , we are sorry to hear that . May I have your name and room number ? We will deal with the matter right now .
Ted . room 2012 .
Hello , Mr . Benson , welcome to Beijing ! Is this your first time to visit china ?
Oh , no , I'v already made several trips to Guangzhou , this is my first trip to Beijing though . It is a lot larger than I expected it would be .
Yes , Beijing has been grown over the last few years , there are a lot of improvements and changes being made for the Olympics . What would you like to see changing be made for Olympic , what would you like to see when are you here ?
I hope to have time to visit great wall when I am here , I always want to go there , I think it would be a real shame by came all the way in Beijing and didn't make out the wall , do you think I have a chance to see it ?
I can pretty sure it can be arranged , the wall is a short distance from the city , but we could make arrangements for driver to take us out to visit the great wall during when our afternoon breaks , I also recommend you to visit Tian'an Men Square and city while you add it !
Yes , that would be nice , would I have a tour guide to tour completely visit these places ?
Don't worry , I would be able to go along with you , over the next few days , if you have any questions or problems , I will be right here to help you out , I can be a translator and tour guide .
Thank you very much .
Room reservations . Can I help you ?
Hello , is there a room available ?
What kind of room do you have in mind ?
A twin room , please .
Hold on , please . ... I'm afraid we're fully booked . The only room available at the moment is a suite .
Thanks for inviting me to your friend ' s wedding . I was surprised to hear the bride and groom talking to each other that way during the marriage ceremony . Is that common ?
Well , some people use a standard set of words , but many couples today write their own wedding vows .
Your tradition of throwing rice as they got into their car was interesting , but it didn't look like real rice to me .
It wasn't . It was birdseed . We don't throw rice anymore because someone discovered that birds come along and eat the rice and have trouble digesting it .
Oh , I didn't think of that . Well , this reception reminds me of weddingparties back in China . Plenty of food and drink , music and dancing , and interesting traditions .
Wait until you see what happens next ! The bride is getting ready to throw her bouquet . Let's go over and watch .
She ' s got quite a crowd around her . Oh , look ! That little girl caught it !
Do you rent cameras here ?
Of course . Which one do you like best ?
I want one that is easy to handle .
Try this one . You can get a picture by simply pressing the shutter .
She has contributed to a new school .
Oh , I know . She is a famous woman and a focus of the newspaper now because of this thing .
I hear the school is very modern . It has the best equipments .
Yes . Do you know its name .
She said she would name it after her father .
Good morning , and welcome to Live Tech . It is my honor to make this presentation for you . Let me begin by explaining some of our digital cameras ' selling points . You will see immediately that they are very stylish , but what you can't see is the cutting-edge technology inside . All of our cameras are light , compact , and easy to use .
Can I take a look at one of those ?
Be my guest . Live Tech's digital cameras combine point-and-shoot simplicity with the ability to easily turn pictures into great-looking prints . Furthermore , it allows users to transfer pictures to a computer while the camera recharges .
Can I take a picture of you ? Seeing is believing .
Sure , Just push the button , like ...
I think I can figure this out . Let's see if this works as advertised . Say ' cheese ! '
I think you will find these are the best digital cameras on the market today .
Tomorrow will be my first day at work , what do you think I should be wearing ?
Well , if you want to look professional , serious and more conservative , a blue dress , white shirt and not-too-high shoes would be the best choice . But sometimes , very formal clothes will keep you at a distance from your colleagues . It depends on the company ' s dress code .
Indeed , I found most of the employees dress casually when I went to the interview . Only the manager was in suit and tie and he just came back from a ceremony . It seems that their dress code is not that formal . Probably , I should put on car key and simple shirt .
Sorry . I've got to run .
Look , the printer isn ' t functioning well . I ' Ve pushed the start button . It is suppose to be working now but it remains like a log . What ' s going on ?
Let me check . It has a paper jam .
I didn ' t pay attention to that . I will try to get the paper out .
OK . sir . Your room is done . Is there anything else I can do for you ?
Would you please help me send these clothes to the laundry ?
OK . sir .
When will they be ready ?
All the laundry will be ready by 5
Next please ! Hello sir , may I see your passport please ?
Yes , here you go .
Will you be checking any bags today .
Yes , I ' d like to check three pieces .
I ' m sorry , sir . Airline policy allows only two pieces of checked luggage , at twenty kilograms each , plus one piece of carry-on luggage . I will have to charge you extra for the additional suitcase .
What ? Why ! I am taking an intercontinental flight ! I ' m flying sixteen thousand CMS ! How am I supposed to only take two , twenty kilo bags ? That ' absurd !
I am sorry , sir , there ' s nothing I can do . You cannot board the flight with that large bag either . Carry - on bags must fit in the over-head compartment or under your seat . That bag is clearly too big .
Now I see . You charge next to nothing for an international ticket , but when it comes to charging for any other small thing , you charge an arm and a leg ! So tell me , miss , how much will I have to pay for all of this .
Let ' s see ... six hundred and twenty-five US dollars .
Guess who I saw yesterday ?
Who ?
My cousin Monk . Have you seen her lately ?
Not for a couple of years . What happened to her ?
Nothing exactly . She's grown into a very attractive young lady .
Oh , she is .
You know , her long lovely blond hair and beautiful blue eyes really make her stand out from others .
Not surprising . I bet she's very tall and slim .
What do you consider to be your weakness ?
I am a little bit shy and I blush every time I speak in public . I think I should open myself more and be more outward with people .
Anything else ?
The new year is coming . Is the final examination approaching .
Oh , yeah . We will have winter holiday .
How are you getting along with your studies ?
Don ' t worry , mum . I will study hard tomorrow .
Good evening , madam . May I help you ?
I want a facial . But this is the first time I've come here , so can you tell me how you do it ?
Sure . Most facials start with a thorough cleaning . Then we usually use a toner to invigorate the skin , followed by exfoliation treatment-a peeling mask or scrub that removes the dead cells that make the skin lock dull . After that , we'll massage your face and neck with oil or cream to improve the circulation and relieve the tension , followed by a mask to moisturize and soften the skin .
That's exactly what I want . How long does it take ?
We have half-hour and one-hour treatments .
What's the regular price ?
Well , the half-hour facial costs 50 yuan and the one-hour costs 80 yuan . If you want make-up , another 20 yuan will do .
Good , I will take the one hour facial with make-up .
That's fine , madam .
By the way , could you give me a manicure ? Use a light nail-polish , please .
Who's that striking woman over there ?
Hm ? Oh , that's Alice . She's totally mad . Don't get yourself in a room alone with her .
Really ? Why not ? She looks great .
Yes , I know , but she's dangerous .
Really ? Tell me more .
Well , I'm not one to gossip , as you know , but rumor has it that she sued her former boss for sexual harassment .
Wow , crikey . So what happened ?
Well , this is just between ourselves , of course , but he was her lover and he wanted to leave her , so she got revenge . I heard him say she was a dangerous woman .
Wow .
Oh , while we're on the subject , what happened to you and your secretary ?
I have no idea what you're talking about .
Oh , come on . Everybody knows .
Could you excuse me a moment ? I have to make a phone call
I have some good news for you .
What's that ?
Jenny is getting married .
Great ! Who's the bridegroom ?
Tom , that lucky guy .
The guy always hands the girls in a line . When did he propose ?
Last week , It said that he fell in love with Jenny at Mrs . Whit ' s party last Monday as soon as he saw her .
My gosh ! How romantic ! When's the big day ?
July 4 , the National Holiday .
Will it be a church wedding or a civil ceremony ?
Jenny plans to hold it in church .
Who is the best man ?
Guess !
Nobody is OK , but you !
You know , Tom is my best friend and he asked me to be his best man .
Did you promise him ?
I need to get my prescription filled .
You may pick it up in twenty minutes .
If I wanted to , could I have it mailed to me ?
Yes , and you can renew this prescription by phone .
Are there any special instructions about this medication ?
Take it three times a day .
Can I take it with food ?
You should take this medicine with food and no alcohol .
Are there any side effects with this medication ?
B , what's in your hand ?
Sunday papers . I usually read them after coming back home from our company .
Why do you read them ?
As you know , I am a sports fan . And these papers are famous for their sports section . So I will feel relaxed after grasping some information I am interested in .
I got your meaning . Reading is your own solution to solve pressure from busy tasks .
Correct ! What about you , Fred ?
I often go to the bar near our dorm when I am overtired . I am crazy for drinking wines with special taste .
Don't overdo it .
Shall we have a drink someday ?
You would be using mainly English in this job . Do you think you can make yourself understood in English with ease ?
Yes , I think I speak English quite fluently . I've often explained historical places in Xi'an to foreign tourists in English . They say my English is quite good .
How many years have you been learning English ?
Oh , more than ten years . I started learning English when I was still in a primary school from a foreign teacher .
Well , perhaps that's the reason why you are so fluent in it .
good morning . What seems to be the problem ?
good morning , doctor . I feel terrible . I ' Ve got a cold and I have a rash here on my neck . I ' m not sleeping well either . What do you think the problem could be ?
I ' d say you ' Ve been working too hard or are under stress for some reason . Have you been taking anything for your cold ?
yes , I bought some medicine at the chemist ' s . I ' Ve been taking it for three days .
good . I ' m going to prescribe something stronger . It will make you feel drowsy , so you certainly should rest .
OK . I can afford to take a fell days off work .
have you been working hard recently ?
yes , I have . I had to get a project finished . It ' s done now , so I can relax a little .
good . Let ' s take a look at that rash ... it looks worse than it is . I ' m going to prescribe some ointment for it . If the rash doesn ' t clear up in a few days , come back and see me . Do you have any other Sy
I have a bad headache , but ...
don ' t worry about that . It ' s probably of the stress you ' Ve been under . Just take some aspirin . Combined with the stronger cough medicine , it will make you feel very tired . You shouldn ' t work or use an
how's it going ?
I'm in a good mood today , actually . How about you ?
to be honest , I'm a bit fed up .
what's wrong ?
there's a girl in my company that I really like but I always get shy when she is around .
I see ! Do you want to ask her out ?
sure , but how ?
you can ask her out for drink after work .
but for what reasons ? She doesn't even know who I am .
then you've got a lot of homework to do . You need to get her notice first .
easier said than done .
you can start by meeting her at the bus stop and saying hello to her .
but I always get tongue-tied when I see her .
that's something you need to overcome . Men should make the first move as most of girls prefer being chased .
I see . I'll try .
Did you set your clock forward for daylight savings time ?
What ? Why do we have to do that ?
Well , at the start of the spring we usually have more daylight in the mornings and less in the afternoon . This is basically due to our position on the planet and the rotation of the earth . In any case , to take better advantage of the daylight available , we compensate by moving our clocks forward one hour .
I see . That ' s convenient ! I never understood things like this , such as GMT . I never know what time zone we are in or when to change my clock !
That just stands for Greenwich Mean Time . Here in California , we are in Pacific Standard Time , that is eight time zones west of Greenwich . Remember when we were in Beijing ? Well , then we were in China Standard Time , and that ' s eight time zones east of Greenwich !
Susan , can you give me a hand ?
Sure , what's wrong ?
I want to create a password for this document . Please tell me how to do it .
It's easy . Press O and then P . Then it will ask you for your password .
What do I do after I've typed in my password ?
Hey , Mike , is Jenny coming with us ?
Yes . Why ?
Nothing . I'm just asking .
Just asking ? But why is your face burning like mad ? Ah-huh , someone has a crush on Jenny , doesn't he ?
Who has a crush ? !
Come on , Ted , don't be such a chicken . If you like her , you've got to tell her . Maybe she likes you .
Well , I don't have the guts to ask her out .
What're you so afraid of ? Just tell her what you're feeling about her .
I'd totally die if she turned me down .
But that's better than keeping everything to yourself . You've got to let her know . Come on ! You've got to take a chance ! Even though you are rejected , it's not the end of the world ! There's nothing to lose , is there ?
Hi , Jenny . Are still working ?
Hi , Nancy . Come in please . I'm just putting away on my books .
So , you are leaving , aren't you ?
Yes , I ' m going to take a holiday tomorrow .
How nice ! I can see you are busying packing . I'm sorry to interrupt you .
That's all right . I'm almost finished . Do you need my help ?
Yes , could you please go over this for me ? And see if there is any mistake in it ?
Oh . All right I'll read it soon .
Excuse me for taking your time .
Peter , why don't you go outside and play basketball with your friends ?
No , Mum , I'd rather stay inside .
I just can't understand why you want to stay at home . It is such a wonderful day today .
I prefer staying at home and watching TV .
Didn't you just finish watching a basketball game on TV ?
Yes , but a football game is next .
Oh , Peter . You really should go and play ball yourself rather than watching games .
I just enjoy watching games .
What ' s your working day like ?
I have a typical 9 to 5 job . Actually , I work a little longer than 9 to 5 most days .
Do you get paid onetime ?
No , I don ' t . I get a bonus each month , depending on the value of the contracts I sign with clients .
Do you have any breaks ?
We have an hour-long lunch break from 12 to 1 . we can take coffee breaks during the day . My boss doesn ' t mind , as long as we get out work done on time .
My boss gets annoyed if we take coffee breaks . I suppose your job involves a lot paperwork , doesn ' t it ?
There ' s some paperwork , but most of the time we put any information onto computers . Then we can send information to each other by email or across the network . Do you work in a cubicle ?
Yes , I do . I don ' t like it very much .
Can I help you , Miss ?
Yes . I have just got lost with my firiend . Can you page my friend for me ?
OK , tell me your friend's name .
Can you get me a taxi ?
We offer various types of transportation . Perhaps you'd like to upgrade to a private vehicle ?
Thanks , but no thanks . A taxi will do just fine .
In that case , how about a limo ? Then you can travel in style .
No , I hate limousines . They're gas guzzlers .
Got it , sir . Where would you like the taxi to take you ?
My destination is Rockefeller Center .
What time do you want to leave the hotel ?
As soon as possible .
I'll call the taxi immediately , sir .
Okay , I'm coming downstairs now .
We're supposed to check in at the Air China's counter 30 minutes before take-off , Joe .
Yes , I know . The boarding time on the ticket says 17:05 , and now it's 16:15 . I guess we have plenty of time .
Do we need to show our ID cards when checking in ?
Yes . It ' s essential .
What about our luggage ?
We can check it and hand carry the small bags . And we have to open each for inspection .
Are they going to frisk all the passengers ?
It ' s time to get up .
I just went to bed .
You shouldn ' t stay up so late watching TV . I told you we had to get an early start .
I know , but that movie was just too good to leave . I guess I ' ll just have to pay the price anti-sleepy .
Do you want to eat breakfast here ?
No . why don ' t we describe and buy at the coffee shop next door ?
Could you do me a favour ? I don ' t understand this French document .
That's good to know . We'll watch for crazy drivers .
Hey , guys . Ready for a pick-up game of touch football ?
Football ? Sounds dangerous . Maybe I'll just be a cheerleader .
C'mon , Yi-jun . It's lots of fun . You've seen football played on TV .
Uh , yeah . And I've seen guys in pads tackled . We have no pads . I don't want to be tackled .
There's barely any contact in touch football . People just tag you to stop the play .
Let ' s meet before next week ' s meeting , Jane . I want to kick around some ideas with you .
No problem . I ' Ve got a really light week . Anytime ' s fine by me .
Well , let ' s plan to get together next Monday afternoon , around three ?
S :: Welcome to Flash Foto . What can I do for you , ma ' am ?
C :: I ' d like to have this roll of film developed .
S :: What size prints would you like ?
C :: Four by six will do .
could we possibly discuss my salary some time ?
sure .
first of all , I want you to know that I really like working for this company . Do you think I'm doing a good job here ?
well , you are a very hard-worker .
I try very hard . The problem is , my salary just isn't enough to live on . Now that I have a wife and a child to support , we hardly have enough money for food and rent .
there are trying times for everyone . What do you propose ?
I could really use a 5 % rise .
that's quite a bit . If I give you a raise , I'm going to have to give everyone a raise .
listen , if you give me a raise , I'll take on extra responsibilities .
that sounds reasonable . How about this , from now on , you can be responsible for scheduling . That means that if you can't find someone to cover a shift , then you'll have to do it .
that's fine . Do I get over-time for any extra hours that I work ?
of course . It's be against the law if we didn't .
that sounds good to me . I really appreciate it .
are your ready to go to the supermarket ?
yes , are you ?
I've got my money and my keys , so I'm ready .
you do know that it's absolutely freezing out , don't you ? I'd put a coat on if I were you .
it wasn't cold out this morning .
well , it's started raining since then . Look out the window ! It's pouring rain out there !
well , I guess we'd better grab our umbrellas then , as well .
have a look outside for me . Does that look like hail to you ?
it does , actually . Maybe we should wait for it to clear up before we go shopping .
that's a good idea . But maybe we should move the car so that the hail doesn't dent it .
ok . I'll go move the car if you turn the heat on . It's a bit chilly in here .
how long do you think this hailstorm is supposed to last ?
I don't know . The weatherman didn't say anything about this in his weather report last night .
maybe we should turn on the news in case it's supposed to get worse .
I don't think we have anything to worry about . Do you want to put on a cup of tea as well ?
good idea . That will help us to warm up .
if I'm not back in ten minutes , come and find me .
Did you hear something ?
Oh , it is my cell phone ringing . I set it in the vibration mode .
It is a good habit to set your cell phone to vibrate . It is very annoying to hear the loud and sudden ring tone in quiet offices .
You are right . Some ring tone is just terribly loud . You can hear it even in the next door . It is really a kind of distraction .
Maybe we can write a report to the boss to see what can be done .
What is the best place to park ?
What vehicle do you usually bring to school ? Is it an automobile or a motorbike ?
I drive a motorcycle .
OK . That means you can park in the student lot or on the street . Have you seen the handicapped spots ?
I am not sure what a handicapped spot is .
Look for the blue signs and blue marked spaces . Do you usually park in the daytime or the evening ?
I park days and evenings .
Be careful about the time limits on the streets . Have you seen the signs for time limits ?
What signs ?
As long as you are careful reading the signs , you will always know how long you can park and what days are OK to park there . Are you aware of the curb colors ?
What curb colors ?
Good morning , what can I do for you ?
I want to buy a car to facilitate my life . But I don't have enough money . Could you supply a loan to me ?
Oh , I see . Would you mind telling me your monthly salary ?
Sure . 7,000 yuan per month .
OK . We can supply you a loan . How much do you want to loan ?
200,000 yuan . By the way , what about the interest rate ?
It's only 4 . 5 % for one-year loan . Do you want to apply now ?
Yes , I think so .
OK . Please fill out this loan application .
All right . Thank you .
How often do you use the internet ?
I use it almost every day , but I usually only use it to check my email . I don ' t often surf the net . You use the internet a lot , don ' t you ?
Yes . I use it to find products and components at the lowest price for my company . It can be frustrating when the connection is poor .
So , you ' re online eight hours a day .
Yes , I like the job though . Sometimes , I help other people in the office if they ' re having trouble online .
How useful do you think the internet is as a source of information ?
I think it ' s fairly useful , but there are two big problems . First , a lot of the information you find online is false . Second , when you buy something online , you don ' t see it until you actually get it .
How do you solve the website problems when you ' re buying something online ?
John , I ' Ve asked you not to smoke in here ! I don ' t want to see you smoking in my office again .
I ' m sorry , Ms . Fairbanks . I won ' t let it happen again .
That ' s what you said the last time ! If you want to smoke , you ' ll have to use your break time and go outside !
Hi , Bill .
Hi , Jim .
Where is that cool guy , Dick ? I haven ' t seen him for two weeks .
He ' s been sick since he came back from Italy .
Bummer , I ' m sorry to hear that , is he better now ?
How about having a cup of tea with us ?
All right . That ' s very nice of you .
Would you like to go to the cinema with me ?
What do you think of his behaviour yesterday ?
He's a sad dog . He came to the wedding in jeans !
Can I help you ?
Yes . I am a bit confused . My sociology class is supposed to read a chapter in a book called Sociology and the Modern Age . According to the syllabus , the book is in the library , but I haven't been able to find it .
Do you have your syllabus with you ? May I see it ?
Yes , uh ... I put it in the front of my sociology notebook . Oh , here it is .
Let me see . Oh yes . Your professor has placed this book on reserve . That means you cannot find it on the shelves in its usual place . You need to go to a special room called the reserve room . It's down the hall and to the right .
I'm sorry - I still don't understand .
You see , your professor wants every one in the class to read the chapter . If one student removes the book from the library , it is likely that none of the other students will have the opportunity to read it . So , your professor has insured that all students have the opportunity to read it by placing it on reserve .
So , will I be able to find this book ?
Yes , when a book is on reserve , a student can go to the reserve room and ask the reserve librarian for the book . The student can have the book for a few hours , and he or she MUST read it in the library during that time . That way , the book stays in the library , and all students have a chance to read it .
Okay . Thank you . I understand now .
Will there be anything else ?
Is there anything I can do for you ?
Yes , we would like to take a tour to L . A .
Well , that's really a big city . How long do your vacations last ?
2 weeks . Can I have a brochure of the sightseeing tours ?
What ' re you doing now ?
I ' m watching TV .
You ' re supposed to clean your teeth before you go to bed .
I will .
Hello , Mr . Brown .
Hello . Can you help me ?
Yes , I'm here to fix your pipes .
I am going to celebrate my birthday with you all in a night club this year , what do you say ?
Fantastic ! I enjoy clubbing , especially those clubs with live bands . The only fly in the ointment is that the air is bad , full of smoke , and the music is too loud , so conversations are not really possible . Once I nearly got burnt by a cigarette .
How did that happen ?
A wild dancer dropped it on my left foot and said nothing about it . If I had drunk enough and I would have had the bold to punch him in the face .
Your resume mentioned that you had been the surveyor , which was a concurrent job , of a certain market survey company . What was your main work content ?
My main duties include designing survey sheets , transferring them to the dispatchers , making telephone covering on blurred information and processing the data and doing the primary analysis .
What had you gained mainly from this survey activity ?
Hi , welcome to the Belt Department . Can I help you today ?
Yes . I need a belt that is kind of casual and kind of dressy .
Then , perhaps a leather belt would work . Come here . Let me show you some .
Evening , table for three , please .
Do you have reservations ?
Yes , I do . I have made reservations under the name of Wang .
Very Wang sir , smoking or no smoking ?
No smoking , please . Could we have table by the window ?
I'm afraid it's a bad news for you . There are some problems in your supervised goods .
Oh , no ! How did this happen . Are you sure ?
I overheard this information when I passed Arden's office . We got some complaints from consumers yesterday . I am terribly sorry for that .
My God ! I actually checked them one by one . How could this be ?
Calm down ! It is useless to act like that . Can we find some solutions ?
What kind of solution can I have now ? I nearly go crazy now .
But we still have to find one . Can we find Arden to check whether this is true or not ?
It seems that I have nothing to do , except this .
It's said that the government will clamp down on the new policy .
Are you sure of that ?
I am not certain about that .
May I take your order now , sir ?
Yes , please . I'd like to start with a chef ' s salad .
Chef ' s salad for starter . And what would you like to have for the main course ?

I'll have to check . Do you need anything else ?
Yes . Five one-dollar stamps , please .
Mark . Where have you been ? I ' Ve been calling you all morning .
I ' Ve been playing computer games .
What ? So you blew me off yesterday and today over a stupid video game ? What game is so important that you have no time for me anymore ? What are you playing ?
It ' s called Counter Strike . It ' s a first person shooter game . It ' s awesome . It ' s a multi player game where you can go online and compete against players from all over the world .
You ' Ve been wasting your time on this ? I can ' t believe it ! It doesn ' t even look fun or challenging !
My laptop is on my bed . If you think it ' s so easy then get on line and try to beat me .
Fine !
Damp it ! How are you killing me with a single shot ? It ' s not fair ! I don ' t want to play anymore ! Let ' s go get something to eat .
Why aren't you going out ?

Here ! Here ! Use my card !

Not on my life ! I'm the best man , so I pay !
OK , OK . On one condition .
What's that ?
You come back here with me tomorrow , and it's my treat !
What's the bonus like at your company ?
Well , it's OK , I suppose . We get about the equivalent of six months ' salary .
Six months ' salary ? Are you serious ? That's incredible !
Maybe . But you'd be amazed at how little's left after the credit companies have deducted their share from my account .
Hey , I know what that's like . I bought a BMW on my Visa card . Now the payments really hurt .
Well , you're lucky that you're still able to make your payments . I missed a credit payment last month . Now my bank account's overdrawn , and the company is threatening to take back my purchases .
What did you buy ?
A new home health monitor .
Health Monitor ? I read an article about that racket . They ' re overpriced to begin with ! Listen , if I were you , I'd let them take back their monitor and spend my money on something more practical .
You're kidding !
No joke !
Hi , chary , are you busy this evening ?
sorry , I'm afraid that I've got plans tonight .
what are you doing ?
I'm going to my parents ' house for my father's birthday .

sounds that way . Maybe some other time then ?

yeah , me , too . It's about time I made a move .
say hello to your friends for me .
likewise . See you later .
I'm going crazy .
What's the matter ?
I've got a dozen things to do and they all have to be done immediately .
Mary , do you often do your shopping online ?
Yes . I'm used to online shopping . It ' s convenient and time-saving . You can buy anything you want and they will send it to your home or any place you want .
How about the price ?
You can get the same product at a much lower price .
Last week , I tried to buy some clothes online , but I didn ' t know how to pay for them .
You should open an account at the online bank first . After that , you can buy anything online .
Are there many things online ?
Hello , IBA Bank , how can I help you ?
Hello , I'd like to talk to someone about making a withdrawal .
You can withdraw money from your account either over the counter or via the ATM .
Yes , but the problem is that I have a Savings Account with you , and I need to take some money from that . Do I really have to give 90 days notice if I want my money ?
Actually , you only need to give 7 days notice if you wish to withdraw funds . Of course , you will lose some interest due to the withdrawal .
But his wife has wide relations . You may ask her for advice .
Stop talking about her . She gives me goose bumps . I never wish to be in her sight .
She is pretty . Many men praise her highly .
I'm tired .
Well , you've been working on this assignment for five hours .
Dora , are you interested in going to the museum with me tomorrow ? I read the newspaper this morning . I know there is an art exhibition in Taipei Modern Art Museum .
Sure . I am free tomorrow . It sounds interesting to me . Can we buy the ticket online ?
I don't think so . I think we had better go there earlier , or we may have to spend a lot of time waiting .
I guess that is the thing we can do with we really want to visit the museum .
Look at the ticket booth in the center . There seems to be not as many people as we thought it would be .
Yeah . We are lucky . Let's go buy the tickets first . We can have breakfast later . I am so hungry .
Good idea .
( After the breakfast ) Which floor is the art exhibition we are going to ?
I have no idea . Let me take a closer look at my museum map
Sure , take your time . We have a whole day .
It's on the 2nd floor . We are going to see some beautiful paintings about the history of ancient Greece .
Gordon , you're ever so late .
Yes , I am sorry . I missed the bus .
But there's a bus every ten minutes , and you are over 1 hour late .
Well , I missed several buses .
How on earth can you miss several buses ?
I , ah ... , I got have late .
Oh , come on , Gordon , it's the afternoon now . Why were you late really ?
Well , I ... I lost my wallet , and I ...
Have you got it now ?
Yes , I found it again .
When ?
This morning . I mean ...
I want to buy some meat .
What kind would you like ?
I want one pound of ground beef .
That's going to be about $ 2 . 48 .
That will be fine .
What else can I get for you ?
Let me also have three pounds of chicken breasts .
That's going to be $ 4 . 05 a pound .
Can you tell me the total cost of the chicken breasts ?
That will be $ 12 . 15 .
That's all I'm going to get today .
Is anybody in ?
How can I help you ?
I have a headache .
Let me take your temperature with a thermometer .
OK .
I think you have a small fever .
I thought so . I felt dizzy this morning .
Your tree looks beautiful . Do you decorate it this way every year ?
Yes , it's a family tradition dating back to my childhood . We use the same lights and ornaments , but of course we have a new tree each year . The children made some of these decorations . Here , you can hang this on one of those high branches .
Well , everything seems to be just about ready . Now all we need is snow . Do you exchange the presents in the morning ?
Oh , yes . The kids are too excited to wait . After we clean up the mess all the empty boxes and the wrapping paper we have a big breakfast . Then the kids have the whole day to play with their new toys .
Do you think we should travel by bus or by train ?
It ' s a difficult choice . The train is a litter faster , but much more expensive .
We could face delays if we travel by bus , thanks to traffic jams .
Buses are more cramped and you can ' t walk around .
That ' s true , but I feel that I see more when I travel by bus .
Really ? I think you see more traveling by train .
So , which form of transport do you prefer to use ?
I prefer going by train , ever though it costs more .
Ok them . We ' ll go by train . I ' m sure we ' ll have a good journey . Shall we go to the station and buy the tickets ?
The train aren ' t usually full . We can get them on the day we travel . We should buy return ticket because they are much cheaper than getting two singles .
I've never seen a machine like this before and need some help .
Sure , no problem . What are you trying to get ?
I want to buy a drink .
OK . This machine needs you to use that change machine first to get correct change .
I've got the correct change already .
First you put your money in the dollar slot or the coin slot . The dollars have to be smooth .
OK , what next ?
Just know that sometimes the money doesn't go in perfectly the first time and you have to try again .
OK , next ?
Choose what you want and push the button . Sometimes it takes a couple of tries .
I agree with you .
I can ' t believe it !
What ' s wrong ? That was a great goal .
Yes , but I bet $ 200 dollars on the Cougars !
Looks like you ' re going to lose out on this game then .
I can ' t believe it ! I thought the Cougars were going to win for sure .
What were the odds ?
20 to 1 , in favour of the Cougars !
You are still a student ?
Yes , but I will graduate from the Shanghai Finance and Trade school next month .
Are you sure you can be a successful cashier ?
I'm sure . You know my major is statistics and I get excellent records in all of the courses I have taken .
That's only for your theory foundation . I am afraid if you have ever handled large amounts of cash before ?
Yes , my father runs a business so I have opportunity to work in the finance department every holiday .
Good . I think you'll make a good cashier .
Well , that's all for the interview . Thank you for your interest in this job .
You are welcome . Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to interview me .
May I call you about our final decision ?

Great . I will look forward to hearing from you . And do I need the second interview ?
We'll notify you if necessary . Goodbye .
You'v been work here for nearly a month , how do you feel about the job ?
Not bad . Thank you for your help . I am always busy with this job , I feel a bit tired .
I had the same feeling when I first came to work here . but after a period of time , I feel better , I am sure you ' ll get used to this busy job .
I also feel that work efficiency here is very high . and you have strong working ability and professional skill , it seems that you know all , that's really wonderful !
You know the phrase the survival of the fittest . We have no choices .
Hi , Zhengjun , what make you so happy .
You know what , I've just got a new job with a computer company .
Do you think I could use your car tomorrow ? I ' Ve got a date with this girl , see ? And ...
I see . Well , now you can have it as long as you bring it back by nine thirty .
Nine thirty ? That ' s no good . Couldn ' t I have it a bit longer ? Even if I fill up the tank ?
I'm looking for a pan I can use in my kitchen .
What size pan were you thinking of ?
I've already got a small pan . I need a big one .
Well , this one might work for you .
Oh , no , that's way too heavy a pan for me .
Here , lift this aluminum pan . It's the same size .
Yes , it's very lightweight . But I don't want this aluminum handle .
Here's a similar aluminum pan . But it has a heat-resistant handle .
Oh , this feels very nice . It's perfect . I'll take it .
I knew we'd find the right pan sooner or later . How would you like to pay ?
Cash . But first , I need a lid for this pan .
Please point out the painful place with your finger . Is there any relation between the pain and the weather ?
Yes , the pain comes more intense when the weather is bad . And the pain comes intense when I walk too much .
Have you ever had any trauma ?
Yes , I have .
Does the pian become more intense at night ?
Yes , ti does . Just like a needle prick . Besides , the place that hurts often feels cold , too .
Do you have the sensation of ants crawling over the painful part ?
Yes , I do .
I'd like to treat you with acupuncture if you agree .
By the way , does acupuncture hurt ?
Acupuncture may cause just a little pain , but it also causes a certain feeling of numbness and distension . We'll try it every day for seven days . Will that be all right ?
Good coming , sir . What can I do for you ?
I'm Mr . Bob , Room 309 . I'm checking out today . Can I have my bill now ?
Certainly . Please wait a moment . Here is your bill .
What's the 30 yuan for ?
This is the charge for your laundry service on Nov . 20thA
But I did't take any laundry service during my stay here . I think you have added someone else's .
Would you mind waiting a moment while we check it with the department concerned ?
I don't mind waiting as long as we get this straightened out .
I'm very sorry , Mr . Bob . There has been a mistake . We'll correct the bill .
It doesn't matter . Here is the money .
Do you offer a course in business management ?
Yes , we do .
How many nights a week is it ?

From 7 to 9 o'clock .

Do you want me to fill it out now ?
Hey , guys ! Did you see that sign ?
No . What did it say ?
There's a garage sale around the corner .
A garage sale ... that's where people check out cars , right ?
What ? Cars ? Are you serious ?
I've read your resume and know a lot of things about your qualifications for this position . One thing you didn't mention is why you left your last job ? I know the company you worked for is a good company .
yes , it's a good company . But the management changed last month . We didn ' t get along , so I quit .
I understand . Why would you like to join our company ?
I'm qualified for this position . And I've heard a lot of good things about your company .
Like what ?
You take care of your employees . And your company offers good salaries and benefits .
that's good to know . Why do you think you ' re qualified for this position ?
Hi , Fanny .
Hi , Andy .
Are you feeling OK ? You sound a little tired this morning .
I did not sleep much last night . I really feel bad . It was a crazy night .
What happened ?
I had a bad dream . I was walking alone in the graveyard , and suddenly all the ghosts jumped out of their graves . They began to chase me through the graveyard and shouted that they wanted my blood .
Oh , what a nightmare ! Then what happened ?
My mother woke me up . She had heard me crying out for help .
You have got a great mother .
I felt embarrased . After all , I am 18 years old . Mom gave me some chocolate cookies and a glass of milk .
That sounds good !
Yeah , but i was afraid to fall back asleep . I am worrying about getting into the University of Michigan .
Ah ! It hurts . Don't touch it .
What part hurts ?
The shoulder .
Well , maybe you broke it . But what I'm worried about is this cut .
It's not a cut . It's a gash ! It's bigger than a cut ! Ah ! I need a doctor .
C'mon . Just don't move .
I'm bleeding too much .
We don't have a decent First Aid Kit , do we ?
Yes . My bike has one under the seat . Get it , quick !
There's some tape , iodine , and cloth bandages . I don't think the cloth bandages can stop the bleeding . What we need is a tourniquet .
Wrap a few loops of the bandages around my upper arm , then twist . That will work as a tourniquet . After that , you can cut more of the bandages to cover the wound .
Good plan . Let me put some iodine on the cut .
No , forget that ! Do the tourniquet first . I'm losing too much blood .
Do I have to write the invitation cards ?
No , you don ' t have to . But I think you ought to .
Mike's really angry .
Why'd you run into me ?
I didn't mean to . It was an accident .
You have completely damaged my car .
I did not . It looks perfectly fine .
You don't see what happened to my bumper ?
What did I do to it ?
You smashed my bumper in with your car .
I really don't think that I did that .
Your bumper looks exactly the same .
Look , just give me your insurance and number and I'll take care of it .
Give me your information , in case I don't hear from you .
Alpha Beta Courier Service ? This is Louise Walker calling from The Marketing Company .
Good morning , Ms . Walker . What can I do for you ?
We need to deliver some documents to our Monroe street branch . Can you come by and pick them up ?
Hi , I am so glad to see you .
Are you kidding me ? Why do you say so ?
You know , I'm about to graduate and I have to look for a job as soon as possible . But I haven ' t the faintest idea of how to go about finding a job .
OK . Let me see where to start .
I guess first I should prepare a resume , right ?
Sure . You should include your name , address and phone number in your resume .
Then what else should I put into my resume ?
Your job objectives , of course . In other words , what kind of job are you searching for ?
I got it . Then I should mention my educating background and working experience , should I ?
Yes . And don't forget to list them by date . Besides , you should begin with the most recent and then move backward .
I see . Is that all there is to it ?
No , it's also necessary to list a few related interests that are in some way connected to the jobs you want to take .
Oh , good point . You mean here I should show off my special skills and talents to impress the boss .
You said it . At last you ' d better attach a list of references to your resume .
That's easy .
Do you know how to drive ?
I'm a great driver .
Could you teach me how to drive ?
Have you gotten your learner's permit ?
Yes , I have my learner's permit .
Have you ever been behind the wheel ?
I've only driven a car one time .
You do know all the controls in the car , don't you ?
I know them .
Tell me when you want me to teach you .
We can do it when you have some time .
so , tell me about your new house . How is it different to your old one ?
well , first of all , it ' s much bigger . It has the same number of rooms , but each room is larger . We also have a larger garden , which our dog loves , of course !
so , it ' s a three-bedrooms detached house ?
yes . One bedroom is for my wife and i . there ' s another for our daughter . My wife wants to use the third one as a guest room , but I ' d like to make it into a study . Our daughter is also keen on
what ' s the kitchen like ? I know both you and your wife like to cook .
that ' s one of the main reason we chose that particular house . The kitchen and dining room are together . It ' s really large .
are the rooms nice and bright ?
yes , they are . That ' s very important to us . We like to live in a home with plenty of natural light . Each room has large windows .
do you have a balcony ?
no , we don ' t . we wish we had one . That ' s the only thing we wanted , but don ' t have . The area is very nice and the neighbours seem friendly .
you ' re right on the edge of the city , aren ' t you ? There can ' t be much noise or traffic there . Is it easy to get into city centre ?
That woman is a thorough drag !
What is it ?
She keeps spitting on the ground .
Good morning , sir . May I help you ?
Good morning . I need a new identification card .
Why ?
My ID card is lost .
OK , did you bring your household register or residence booklet ?
I only have my household register .
It doesn't matter , they are the same thing .
Here you are , sir . What do I do next ?
OK , I will register you in our database system . What's your name , please ?
Benjamin .
Please get a mug shot in the next room .
I've brought with me some of old ones .
But we need them taken with digital cameras .
OK , what's next then ?
What kind of personality do you think you have ?
I'm quite active and energetic . I approach things enthusiastically and I don't like to leave things half-done .
Do you think you are introverted or extroverted ?
I'm quite outgoing i think . I enjoy mixing and doing things with others .
What do you think is the most important thing for you to be happy ?
I maintain that the most important thing is having good friends . A person can't live all by himself I think . A friend in need is a friend in deed . The more really close friends I have , the better .
What kind of people do you like to work with ?
I'm so glad that the Spring Festival is near at hand .
Me too . I like the festival best of all .
Think of the big face down the eve , hmm .
And special TV programs , fire crackers and the games to play .
Hey , do you know any mystery belief serve the festival ?
Such as ?
You know why fire crackers are set off in festival .
Why ? To welcome the new year of course ?
And also to frighten away evil spirits .
Really ?
And my parents say the whole year will be as good or as bad as new year day itself and bad or rude words on the day will bring a bad year .
On balance , dress designing appeals to me most .
Yes , it's to my liking , too .
Say , how would you like to be a dress designer ?
Wow , the ferris wheel over there is so big . I'd like to take a ride on it .
It is called Energy Collector .
Look at your right-hand . Is it the zone of the Lost Maya Kingdom ?
Maybe . Oh , I see the Jungle Flying Train . I once rode it . It was very exciting .
I want to have a try later .
Me too . Daniel , look at your left side . Can you see the Air Force Ants ?
Wow , that's my favorite . It's like a superman shooting right up into the sky .
Good , you can make your dream come true here .
Of course . After this , I want to show you to the Haunted House .
So you can prove you are a man .
Bingo !
I really like the apartment , but I was wondering if I could change some things .
What would you like to change ?
I would like to have different carpet .
I would be willing to put in a different color carpet if you pay the price difference .
How much more would it cost ?
It would cost between 2 and 10 dollars more per square yard .
While I am at it , would it be possible to switch paint colors ?
I would be willing to look at a different color . You need to bring me a sample .
When can my apartment be painted and ready to go ?
My brother started investing money when he was 16 years old .
Would you mind telling me if this is the right way to the police station ?
I ' m afraid you ' re going in the opposite direction .
Should I take a bus ?
Advance Reservations . Can I help you ?
Yes , I ' d like to book a single room with a bath from the afternoon of October 4th to the morning of October 10th .
Could you tell me your name , sir , please ?
Where's your better half ?
We're going to discuss how to market CB series soon . Does your project go well ?
Absolutely . I've sorted out all the materials we need and sifted three great ways of marketing .
Oh , that's good .
We can discuss them detailedly over the meeting and choose the best way to promote our key products .
Sally , do you really need to go ?
Yeah . It ' s a must for me .
But don't forget to give me a ring .
Isabelle , you know I'm not interested in fame .
Well , you don't seem to be interested in getting a real job , either .
You know I'm interested in teaching . I'm looking for jazz students ...
Yeah , and every high school student in town is banging on your door , right ?
I know they're out there . I'll find them .
In my opinions , someone else has caused the fire of this house .
Who do you think that has the motive ?
I ' m not sure now . In any case , let ' s first make some careful investigations .
OK , murder will out !
You are married to a foreigner , huh ? So what ' s it like ?
Well , the first year of our marriage , we had great difficulty getting along . The things that are important to me are not important to him . We had a lot of conflicts .
Yeah , I know what you mean . The first year of any marriage is difficult for all couples , not to mention two people from different cultures .
And now we have a two-year-old boy . We ' re very happy that he ' s healthy and smart .
Oh , so he ' s half Chinese and half American . That ' s unusual . What languages does he speak , then ?
Right now he speaks mostly Chinese , and he can say a few English words . But he will learn .
What does he look like ? Can people tell ?
Excuse me , where am I on this map ?
You're right here , bus station , we are in the center of the city .
Which bus should I take to railway station ?
You can take a No . 2 bus here .
Where am I supposed to change ?
Excuse me . May I have a bus map , please ?
You mean one for the city ?
Yes , within New York .
I'm afraid we don't have any . If I were you , I'd try one of the newspaper stands .
How many people are there in your family ?
Five . My father , mother , brother , sister-in-law and me .
Is your brother older or younger than you ?
Good afternoon , everyone . The experiment is to start at 3 . Have you gone through the instructions ?
Yes , sir .
Ok , now some points for attention . First of all , pay attention to safety ... Now , sign your names on the lab record , and after that you can start . If there is any question , just let me know .
Excuse me , sir . This air compressor doesn't work .
Have you turned it on ?
Yes , I have .
Ok , I will get you another one .
I'm better now . Want to play again ?
I'll let you break the balls this time .
Let's get all the balls out of the pockets .
OK . How much do you want to bet on this game ?
My battery's flat in my mobile .
Is that why you didn't return my call ?
And I couldn't find another phone .
What seems to be the problem ?
I have a really bad toothache ! My cheek is swollen and I can ' t eat anything .
Let ' s have a look . Mmmm . This doesn ' t look too good . I think we may have to pull out your wisdom tooth . It ' s pressing against your molars and that ' s one of the reasons you are experiencing so much pain .
When you pull my tooth will you also have to extract the nerve and the root ?
First we will take some x-rays and see what we ' re dealing with . I also noticed a small cavity up front here , so you are going to need a filling .
I guess that ' s what I get for not flossing or brushing my teeth three times a day .
Let me hold the door for you , miss .
What a coincidence seeing you here . !
you're rather energetic today . What's going on ?
nothing really . I think I've had a few too many coffees .
free coffee is one of the perks at this place , isn't it ?
it's the only perk of this job ! How's your day going ?
not that well . I've got that Monday morning feeling today .
why is that ?
my boss has been breathing down my neck all day . I can't wait for the weekend !
your boss is a real salve-driver , isn't he ?
you can say that again ! He won't even let us check our personal email at work !
that's not just your boss . No one is allowed to send personal emails from the office .
really ? I didn't know that it was against company policy .
maybe your boss isn't so horrible after all !
no , he is . Some bosses will bend the rules a bit sometimes , but not my boss . He always follows the rules to a T .
try not to let it bother you too much .
thanks . I better get back to my work before my boss yells at me again !
ok , I'll see you in a bit .
Will you sit down , Mr . White ?
Thank you . It's very kind of you to invite me to such a beautiful place .
I propose a toast to your pleasant tour in China .
Thank you very much .
This food is a Wax specialty . Please help yourself .
Good evening , may I help you ?
Yes . I want to reserve a table for two this evening .
I am sorry , madam . All the tables are booked now .
How have you been doing ?
I can ' t sleep or eat . I have a really bad pain in my tooth !
How long have you had this toothache ?
It bothers me off and on , but it ' s gotten much worse these past few weeks .
Is there anything that you ' Ve done to your tooth that might have caused the pain ?
My girlfriend told me that I grind my teeth a lot when I sleep . Maybe that is the problem .
When you brush your teeth , what do you use ?
I use a soft bristle toothbrush .
Does it bother you when you have to chew a lot ?
OK , Mr . Wang . Thank you very much for coming to the airport to see us off . Your great country and your hospitality have left a very deep impression on all of us and your working attitude and your way of doing business have changed my opinions about Chinese people .
Really ? I'm glad to hear that .
That's true . And this trip has been a very productive one for us .
Thank you again for your visit . We are looking forward to your reply .
Believe me , Mr . Wang . I'll do my best to promote the transaction .
We are happy that we have established business relations . I really hope that we'll have more business to do and more opportunities to meet each other .
It ' s very kind of you to say so .
You are very nice and helpful . Hope to see you again .
I think we will have opportunities to meet each other in the future .
OK , I think it's time for you to check in . If you run into any difficulty , we'll be here to assist you immediately .
Fine . Thank you very much . Bye-bye .
Interesting lectures , aren't they ?
Yes , very . I thought the last speaker was especially good .
Let me introduce myself , by the way . My name's Charies Ford .
So will you back me up if things get ugly with Elvin ?
I will if you tell me how you're so sure that we're going to come out on top .
We just will . Trust me on that .
After what you did , I don't know how hard Elvin's going to work to meet your deadline .
He'll do it . He's too proud not to .
You've got everyone figured out , don't you ?
Are you going to the cafeteria downstairs ?
Yes .
Could you please get me a takeaway ? I have some urgent work to finish . So I don ' t have enough time to go out for lunch .
No problem . What should I bring ?
May I try on this dress ?
Do you like cooking ?
Yes . I like cooking very much . I got this hobby when I was 12 years sold .
Why do you like it ?
I have no idea . I like cooking by myself . I like to taste delicious food .
That's wonderful !
And I love trying new recipes , which I usually test with my friends . You can come , too .
Really ? I hope I can have a chance to taste it . Don't forget to tell me .
Did you happen to bring that book that we were talking about yesterday ?
I did . Let me go get it for you . Here you go .
Thanks so much .
I like the way that the gifts I get increasingly more lavish .
I had no idea that there were specific things that should be given on different anniversaries .
So what does it say you should give your wife this first anniversary ?
It says that traditionally , give something made of paper .
Come in and have some coffee , Anna . The kids have just gone out to the mall to hang out with their friends .
I saw a lot of teenagers when Alan and I were there yesterday .
They spend hours there , especially on weekends .
Speaking of that trip , Alan bought a shirt at a department store , but the sleeves are too long . Do you know a seamstress or tailor who can shorten them ?
I know several . But wouldn't it be easier to take the shirt back and exchange it for the right size ?
Isn't that complicated ?
No , it's easy . We'll just take the shirt back to the men ' s department and show them the sales slip . They'll exchange it for the correct size or give you a refund .
We ? Do you want to go with me ?
Sure . I love going to the mall .
Taxi .
Yes , sir , where are you going ?
I am going to the railway station .
Get on , please .
Thank you . Can we get there in half an hour ?
I am not sure , sir . Generally we can , but look at the traffic . It's the rush hour .
My train will leave at 3:00 , I'll have to arrive there before 2:50 .
We are really in a hurry .
Can't we go faster ?
There is a tornado warning on . My mother just told me she heard it on the radio .
What is a tornado warning ?
It means that a tornado has been seen somewhere in the area .
Really ? In New Berlin ?
No . Not necessarily in town . But in southern Wisconsin somewhere . A tornado has been spotted . They have two stages here . This is what is called a tornado watch . That means that the weather conditions are perfect for a tornado .
I understand . They think a tornado might come .
Yes . People should look out , because maybe there will be tornadoes coming . So it's called a watch .
And the second stage is called a tornado warning .
Yes . If a tornado has been spotted , they announce a tornado warning . So if there's a tornado warning on , it means a tornado is out there somewhere .
It's scary .
Well . Tornadoes can be dangerous , it's true . If we hear something like a loud train coming , then we have to go in the basement .
What do you mean a loud train ?
That is what tornadoes sound like . They sound like trains . They're very loud .
But if you hear them coming , isn't it already too late ?
Maybe . It depends on the tornado . Some can move across the ground at 200 miles an hour . That is very fast . Others aren't so fast .
Have you seen a lot of them ?
I've only seen one in my life . I was looking out the window . It was around two miles away . It was very interesting to watch . But it was heading toward my friend's house . So I quickly called them on the phone .
Did it hit their house ?
No , it didn't . But they are glad I called them .
What were they doing when you called ?
They were all sitting in the living room watching TV . They had no idea a tornado was coming toward their house . If it had hit them , they could have all been killed .
That's terrible . Do many people die in tornadoes ?
Hello , is that Mason's builders ?
Yes , can we help you ?
We have a problem with our roof . Can you come and have a look ?
What sort of problem ?
We have water coming through . It was raining yesterday and this morning we noticed a wet patch on our ceiling .
Is the wet patch just in one place ?
Yes , it seems to be just in the living room , above the window .
Did you look in the attic ?
No , sorry , we didn't .
Is there easy access to the attic ? We'd better look since there may be some flooding there as well .
Yes , we have a hatch with a ladder .
OK , we can come early this afternoon . Is anyone going to be at home ?
Yes , my wife will be there .
Right , we have an urgent job this morning but we should finish around lunch time . We will then come straight over to your house .
Hi , Jim . How are you ? I haven't seen you for a while .
I'm fine . I've been out of town . I just got back .
Where were you ?
I just moved into my apartment , and the plumbing is not working .
Can you describe the plumbing problems you are having ?
The bathtub barely drains at all .
Okay , the bathroom plumbing needs looking at . What about the kitchen plumbing ?
Neither the kitchen nor the bathroom plumbing is working well .
Has this problem been going on for a long time ?
It just started happening last night .
I will be coming over to look at it this afternoon . Will you be there ?
I will not be home .
Beautiful day , isn't it ?
Yes , it's not like what the radio said at all .
I wish it would stay this way for the weekend .
Pardon me . Please speak a little louder .
I said please stop by the entrance of EVA Air at the Arrival Terminal .
Sure . What else can I do for you ?
Oh , no . That ' s it . Nice to chat with you . Have a good day .
What time is our connecting flight ?
Let me check . Oh , oh ! It ' s at 3:25 .
Wow , that's cutting it close ! That means we only have 25 minutes to make the connection ! What gate is it at ?
It's at ... gate 14 .
Oh , great ! That's at the other end of the terminal !
OK , so here's the plan ; When we land , run to gate 14 !
This is a precious opportunity for us and our company .
Most of our customers are foreigners . How many foreign languages can you speak , Elizabeth ?
Two . French and Spanish .
And how well can you speak them ?
Well , French was my best subject at school . I can read and write it pretty well .
And how about your Spanish ?
Well , it's not as good as my French . I can speak it reasonably well , but my written Spanish isn't very good .
I see . Well , we have a lot of Spanish customers , but you wouldn't need to write any Spanish here .
What reasons do westerners drink for ?
I don't think drinking requires any special purposes . For us people in the West , the purpose is generally quite simple-to savor the wine .
I know what you mean there . In many circumstances , people kiss the baby for the nurse's sake . And that's what we do when drinking at a banquet . Even though we do have a rich variety of brand-name wines , like Matai and Showing Yellow Rice Wine , alcohol is usually served not for the enjoyment itself . We just be its Dionysus effect to enliven the atmosphere , improve personal association with each other and solidify friendship .
And to make matters worse , you're urged to drink " one more cup time and again . There is too much etiquette to observe . You'II be set free at a Western banquet It seems we are keen to make it convenient as possible to savor the wine , its color , its aroma and its delicate taste .
Yeah . It's of supreme importance that the goblet , table-cloth , and plates should be made shiningly clean , so that the color of the wine is clearly visible and the delicate aroma and taste are fully appreciable .
Does anyone mind me turning on the air conditioning ? It's hot in here .
Actually , I prefer if you didn't . Air conditioning makes me sneeze .
All right . I'm opening the window , though , is that OK ?
Waiter , bring me the menu , will you ?
Just a moment , I'm coming . Now , what would you like ?
I'd like to see the menu . Would you get me one , please ?
Yes , certainly . Here you are .
Thank you . Ah ! But this is in French . Would you mind giving me the English menu ?
It's written in English too , in smaller print . There .
Thanks . I'll need a while to choose . Could you come back in a minute ?
Right . Now , what are you having ?
I'm sorry , I haven't decided yet . Do you mind giving me a couple of minutes ?
Do you play cards ?
Of course and very well .
What's the English for Hongtao , Leitao , Meihua and Fangpian ?
Brandy , I am supposed to participate in an interview tomorrow .
That's great . You need to prepare for it .
How ?
Buy an expensive suit .
Is a white shirt OK ?
Now darling , I know that we've bought this house together , but it's just going to be far too expensive to decorate it . I think we should sell it .
Oh , no , Nathan , I ... I really think we've bought this flat at the right time , you know . Market prices are going to go up , and I think you'll find in a year or two it will be worth a lot more .
But we're going to spend so much money in furnishing and decorating . I think we could get a much cheaper place that's already furnished .
But don't you like this place ? I remember when we came to see it we thought it would be lovely .
Well , only you liked it really , darling .
Where are you going for your trip ?
I think Hebes is a good place .
But I heard the north of China are experiencing severe sandstorms !
Really ?
Yes , it's said that Hebes was experiencing six degree strong winds .
How do these storms affect the people who live in these areas ?
The report said the number of people with respiratory tract infections tended to rise after sandstorms . The sand gets into people's noses and throats and creates irritation .
It sounds that sandstorms are trouble for everybody !
In the discus throw , you scored 30 meters at the final throw . How did you make it ?
Well , I've been practising for 5 weeks .
Is this your best score ?
Good afternoon , is there a vacant room here ?
We are practically full up , but I will see . What do you want , a single room or a double one ?
A single room , preferably with a bath .
How long do you plan to stay ?
For a week or so .
You can have a room on the second floor .
I hope it's quiet . I hate noise at night .
I think you will find it quiet . It faces the courtyard .
What is the rate , please ?
The current rate is 50 dollars per night .
What services come with that ?
A radio , a color television , a telephone and a major international newspaper delivered to your room everyday .
That sounds good . Well , do you give discount for a week or more ?
Yes , we give 5 % discount for one week , 10 % for two weeks and more .
All right . I will take a room for a week .
Will you fill out this form , please ? The bellboy will show you up to your room . Your luggage will be brought right up .
Can I get dinner here ?
We do serve dinner .
Oh , man . I had the best supper last night . My wife made a stir-fry and it was amazing !
I love stir fry crispy bitesize vegetables covered in a mixture of soy sauce and oyster sauce . Wilted greens and fresh bean sprouts . Throw in some onion and garlic and ginger ! Mmm ! Mmm ! It ' s almost lunchtime . I would die for a plate of stir fry right now !
Well , you can keep the vegetables , I ' ll take the meat . The stir fry my wife made was really hearty , with chunks of beef and slivers of bell peppers and onion ...
I really want to go to the beach this weekend .
That sounds like fun . What's the weather going to be like ?
I heard that it's going to be warm this weekend .
Is it going to be perfect beach weather ?
I believe so .
Good . I hope it doesn't cool off this weekend .
I know . I really want to go to the beach .
But you know that California weather is really unpredictable .
You're right . One minute it's hot , and then the next minute it's cold .
I really wish the weather would just stay the same .
I do too . That way we can have our activities planned ahead of time .
Have you figured out where you want to transfer to ?
I can ' t think of where to go .
Where would you like to go to school ?
I really don ' t know .
You can ' t think of anything ?
I really like where I ' m at now .
So , why don ' t you just stay here ?
That may be what I ' m going to do .
It ' s a perfectly good school .
You ' re absolutely right .
Do you know what you ' re going to do now ?
Good moming . sir . Here is your breakfast .
Thank you . Just put it on the table .
Is there anything I can do for you ?
En , would you please give me some bread please ? I am hungry now .
So Vicky , how long have you held your present position ?
I ' Ve been a secretary for two years , before that I was at university .
And how do you like working for IBM ?
It ' s challenging , I feel I have learned a lot .
What ' s strength do you bring to the job ?
I get along well with people , and I enjoy working with others .
Is everything all right ?
Not at all .
What's the problem ?
Someone just robbed me .
What do you mean ?
This guy just robbed me right on the street .
He didn't hurt you , did he ?
I'm okay . He just stole my things .
I'm so sorry .
I have to file a report at the police station .
Let me take you .
Are your ready to go to the supermarket ?
Yes , are you ?
I've got my money and my keys , so I'm ready .
You do know that it's absolutely freezing out , don't you ? I'd put a coat on if I were you .
It wasn't cold out this morning .
Well , it's started raining since then . Look out the window ! It's pouring rain out there !
Have a look outside for me . Does that look like hail to you ?
It does , actually . Maybe we should wait for it to clear up before we go shopping .
That's a good idea . But maybe we should move the car so that the hail doesn't dent it .
Ok . I'll go move the car if you turn the heat on . It's a bit chilly in here .
How long do you think this hailstorm is supposed to last ?
I don't know . The weatherman didn't say anything about this in his weather report last night .
Maybe we should turn on the news in case it's supposed to get worse .
I don't think we have anything to worry about . Do you want to put on a cup of tea as well ?
Good idea . That will help us to warm up .
If I'm not back in ten minutes , come and find me .
William , do you like studying English ?
I like studying English , and I can read well , but speaking can be difficult .
It's not that bad . If you talk to your American friends every day , you'll learn quickly .
Can I ask you a question ?
Sure , what do you want to know ?
I have my book from class here . How do you say this word ?
Laptop .
Sorry , I don't understand . What does that mean ?
A laptop is a type of computer that you can carry with you . Do you understand ?
Yes , I think so . Can you say it again ?
Laptop .
Laptop . Did I pronounce that correctly ?
Yes , that's right . That's very good .
Thanks . And this word ? How do you pronounce this ?
That word is pronounced kitchen .
Thanks so much . You're a good teacher .
Why do you want to take the police to court ?
They arrested me without probable cause .
They did ?
They had no reason for arresting me .
I thought they let you go .
Yes , the next morning .
They made you spend the night at the station ?
Yes , they did .
What was their reason for arresting you ?
I matched the description of a bank robber they were looking for .
I see .
Mr . Tang , we have decided to hire you . How much do you expect to get a month ?
I'm making three thousand yuan a month at my present work . I should not , of course , make a change for less . Could you provide me with a monthly salary of four thousand yuan ?
I don ' t think we can give you that much as the starting salary .
You know , Mr . Allen , Nowadays this starting salary is not high based on my skills and experience .
Maybe , but there are many fringe benefits here .
What are they ?
Additional to medical benefits , we also offer a rent free house and the use of a car .
But I have my own car and my own house .
OK , 4000 yuan a month .
Thank you very much .
I can ' t make out anything , the words are too light . I thought they have already changed the toner cartridge this month .
It seems not or somebody has recently received a large fax .
Ok , no problem . We do it ourselves .
Do you know how to do it ? I am not so good at machine things . I will have somebody do it as soon as possible .
What can I do for you ?
I need some medicine .
For whom ?
My younger brother . He suffers from a bad cold .
What symptoms does he have ?
Fever and a bad cough .
I got it . Don't worry , just a common cold .
What kind of medicine does he need ?
Patulin will do .
How many pills for each time ?
Six per day , and two after each meal .
Thank you very much .
Do you like flowers ?
Of course , I like flowers .
What's your favorite flower ?
I like peach blossom , because I like spring .
Peach blossom is really beautiful .
Yes . How about you ?
I like lotus .
You have a perfect taste !
But there aren't any lotus now .
Yes . It's snowing outside . Let's enjoy the plum blossoms .
Excuse me , sir . Is this a duty-free shop ?
Yes , you can draw your tax back at any customs in the EU .
Well , I am afraid I don't bring my passport with me today . Can you save it for us until tomorrow ?
Michael Jackson's coming to town .
You shouldn't have told her the truth . What can we do now ?
I'm sorry , It's all my fault .
You are always like this . I've told you many times not to tell her .
Sorry , I had no intention .
It's too late to say sorry now . Oh , what am I going to do ?
I am here to tell you that the clothes are very much to taste of our market and the customers are quite satisfied with the excellent quality .
We are very glad to hear that . We are sure that there will be a bigger market for our products in this country .
Well , we have an extensive sales organization and a thorough knowledge of Asian market . Your products would sell very well here . We are prepared to do more business with you . We are also interested in handing a sole agent for you .
We really appreciate your efforts . Before we go to the core of matter , can you give us some idea of them on which you would be willing to operate as our agent ?
Do you often surf the Internet ?
Yeah . I do it once a week .
Is it very interesting ?
Sure . I get a lot of information and make many friends .
How have you been ?
Fine , thank you .
And how ' s everyone in your family ?
Very well , thank you . I ' m meeting my wife and daughter for lunch at 12:00 , would you care to join us ?
Are you going to vote ?
I am . Are you ?
Yes , and for the first time .
Is that right ?
I don ' t know how to vote .
Voting isn ' t difficult .
I ' m not sure what laws are being voted on .
They tell you everything on the ballot .
They do ?
You ' ll be okay .
Thanks for telling me .
Jim , I heard you took a trip to San Diego . Is that right ?
Yeah , I just got back this morning .
That sounds really nice . What did you do there ?
Well , we were only there for three days , so we didn't do too much . We went shopping and went out to dinner a few times . And at night we walked around the city with some friends .
Did you take any pictures ?
Yes , I have them with me . Do you want to look at them ?
Sure , I love looking at photos .
This one is of my wife and me on the beach , and this one is our daughter Emily standing next to my wife .
Your daughter looks like her mother .
I know , they look very similar .
Where was this picture taken ?
That was taken at the train station before we left .
Did you have time to go to the zoo ?
No , not this time . We went there last time .
It looks like you all had a nice time .
Will you be at the family reunion next year ?
Is your father in the habit of having naps ?
Yes , all of us have naps .
Don't you feel dizzy when you have to get up ?
Do you think discrimination against women in the work force is still prevalent even today ?
From my own experience as a career woman , I would have to say that while things are getting better now than they used to be , it is still a widespread problem . Society is changing , but there is still a glass ceiling for women in many career tracks .
do you think the glass ceiling phenomena is because of traditional social customs ? Or are there more issues coming into play ?
I think it's a very complicated issue . A part of the difficulties women have advancing in the work force are due to few opportunities and many male managers . Don't underestimate the good ole ' boy system . Men have power , so it's easier for them to stay in power .
What about affirmative action ? Hasn't legislation changed a lot of the make hierarchy ?
Last night I looked for my Indian classmate Barbara . I found her sitting with her legs crossed and quietly practicing .
Needless to say , it must be Indian Yoga .
Mary , you say something about it .
Where is the shelf of best-sellers ?
Books in the first aisle are all best sellers .
Could you give me some advice on books for killing time on the train ?
Well , do you like novels ?
Yes , very much . Which one is the latest ?
Here is one written by famous Japanese novelist . You can have a look .
Thank you for your help .
Good morning . I ' m Mickey Huang , I have an appointment with Mr wilson .
Is this about the Sales Assistant position ?
That's right . My appointment is for 11 o'clock .
Mr wilson is on the line right now . Please have a seat . He'll be right with you .
Thank you .
Can I get you something , coffee , tea ?
I need a snack from the cafeteria .
What are you thinking of getting ?
I only want some chips .
I think I may get something too .
What do you plan on buying ?
I have a sweet tooth . I want candy .
What kind of candy do you want ?
I really want some chocolate .
What kind of chocolate do you want ?
I either want a Snickers or a Kit Kat .
The cafeteria doesn't sell Kit Kats .
You don't have to play that record so loud , do you ?
I'm sorry . Has it been bothering you ?
Yes . And please ask me the next time you want to use something .
What about you , Ernie ? How did you get into pop music ?
Well I always hear it on the radio , so I started to get into it .
Yeah , if something is on the radio it must be really good .
I heard you are going to move .
Yes , I found a better house near my office . I ' m very satisfied with it . But I ' m worrying .
What are you worried about ?
I ' m worrying about how to move all of my household stuff . You know , I have a lot of stuff .
You can call a mover .
How much dose that cost ?
Around 200 RIB for a truck .
I think it ' s a little expensive .
But think about it , you just need to pack your stuff and leave everything for the movers , how much trouble you will save .
That ' s right .
I know a mover which has a very good reputation for their service . I ' ll leave you their phone number .
Wonderful .
It ' s 8357688 8 .
Okay , thanks a lot . You did me a great favor just now .
Hello . Can I sit here ?
Yes .
By the way , I'm Robin .
Hi . My name is Jessica .
Nice to meet you .
Pleased to meet you too . And where are you from , Robin ?
I'm from Kathmandu . What about you ?
I'm from New York . Oh , this is my stop . Bye , Robin .
It ' s a beautiful day here in New Zealand at the Men ' s Volleyball world championship . My name is Rick Fields and I ' m joined by the man with the plan , Bob Copeland .
Thank you , Rick . We ' Ve got a very exciting encounter ahead of us today as two powerhouse teams , Brazil and China , face off against each other and try to qualify for the next round . Without a doubt , both teams are in top shape and this will prove to be a competitive match .
The ref signals the start of the game and here we go . Ribero serves and China quickly receives the ball . Chen bumps it to the setter , and ... a very nice set by Chen !
Xu spikes it ! Wow , what a great hit ! The Brazilian blockers anticipated the play and tried to block him but he managed to get the ball in !
It ' s China ' s service now . What a superb jump serve by Li , oh , and we have a let serve . The ball was coming in fast and almost made it over the net .
I really dislike reading academic books .
Are you ready ?
Benter's Books .
Yes , I need to order a large number of Webster's dictionaries .
We have several hundred in stock .
Hey honey ! Where were you ?
I decided to take Kenny to the park and get some fresh air .
How was it ? Were there a lot of kids ?
It wasn't too crowded , but we had a great time ! We got on the see-saw together , then went on a couple of different slides and then I tried to go with him in the jungle gym , but I didn't fit .
Sounds like fun ! When we go he always just likes to play in the sandbox .
Yeah , but today he was really hyper . He even got on the monkey bars and then he went on to go on the swings for a half hour . I'm exhausted !
What kind of lease is it ?
It's a one-year lease .
Can I have a month-to-month lease ? I only want to rent the apartment for five months .
No , all the leases are for one year . We don't have month-to-month leases .
Well , then I don't think this would be a good apartment for me . Thank you anyway .
We can offer you a 5 % discount .
Your price is rather out of line , much higher than we expected . We can't buy with your offer .
Well , what do you suggest then ? How about 8 % ?
When we say your prices are much too high , we don't mean the are higher only by 2 or 3 percent . If we are to place an order with you . I think a discount of about 15 % would be sufficient .
What ? You want to drive me bankrupt ! You can't expect us to make such a large reduction .
There's no point in making a counter offer because the gap is too great .
How about lo % ? This price is already a little tight , our profit margin is not that large .
Brian and Christina were mentioning that maybe it would be fun to go on vacation together this year , John .
I thought that I already told you that I am going with Mark to Alaska .
Are you kidding me ?
You know what ? You and I had no plans , so I made plans with Mark . What's the problem ?
We have been together for a year and usually , people who've been together a year , take their vacation together .
I don't think that I ever heard of that rule before . Any more rules that you would like to tell me about ?
Go on your vacation with Mark and when you come back , why don't you just move in with him as well !
Hi , happy new year !
Hey , the same to you !
Time flies ! One year has already been a history !
Definitely , it's time to say bye-bye to the last year and to say hello to the new year !
Yeah . Have you made any good resolutions for this new year ?
Some resolutions ? That's a wonderful idea , but I have no idea yet . How about you ?
I want to be healthier this year , so I think I should take more exercise .
That will be a good one ! Anything else ?
Maybe I should make a plan about learning my biochemistry , which is a mess !
I learned of the railway accident only this morning .
A really dreadful accident and many people were killed .
Is that true ?
Yeah , well , I fill you in one the details later .
Tom , you look thoughtful and unhappy recently . What's wrong with you ?
Lily broke up with me last week . In fact , she dumped me .
Why ? I mean , why did she part company with you after seven years together ?
She said it was because we had very different ideas about life .
Do you believe her excuse ?
Of course not . I knew she had fallen in love with another guy . It is difficult to see her move on so quickly .
Come on , buddy , cheer up . Why not do some sports with me ? Violent exercise might help to shake you out of your disappointment in love .
Do you like shopping at flea markets ?
l love it . There is always something fascinating to discover .
The antiques market here in Paris is very famous . It's called Le marche aux puces de Saint-Ouen .
That's not very easy to say .
It's also known as Les Puces , which means ' The Fleas ' .
Can you find many bargains there ?
Hello , this is the International Student Office . My name is Leah . How may I help you ?
I'd like to speak to the Ms . Collins , please .
Ok . Can I ask who is calling , please ?
This is Nathaniel Brown .
And what is your call regarding ?
I'd like to talk to her about my accommodation situation .
Ok , I'll try and put you through . Please hold .
Ok .
... Sorry , her line is busy at the moment . Can I take a message ?
Sure . Can you have her call me back on my cell phone number ?
Ok . What's your number ?
It's 0-7- 7-8- 7-3- 6-7- 6-8- 8 .
Let me repeat that back to you . That's zero , double seven , eight , seven , three , six , seven , double six , double eight .
No , there's no double six at the end of the number . It's just zero , double seven , eight , seven , three , six , seven , six , double eight .
I got it . When should I have her call you back ?
Anytime before 6 pm tonight .
Ok , Nathaniel . I'll have Ms . Collins call you back sometime tonight before 6 pm .
Thank you !
Bye !
Would you like to have a piece of cake ?
No , thank you . I'm on a diet .
Why ? You're not fat .
I'm considering entering for the beauty contest this summer , so I must have a slender figure .
Women of all shapes would be beautiful if they are self-confident .
I'm afraid the judges do not think so . All the beauty contests are for slim girls only .
Well . There's a beauty contest in Thailand just for fat beauties .
How much do they weigh ?
All the beauties who entered the contest were over 80kg .
I've been so stressed these days .
What's the matter ? Are you OK ?
I don't know where to go for college , and what to major in .
Don't worry . You have plenty of time to decide .
And I also want to get scholarships to help me pay for the tuition . I want to get the burden off my family .
You always worry too much about everything . Take it easy , honey . You are good enough . You can go to the ideal college .
OK , OK . I'm so sorry . By the way , for you , is it more important to make money or to enjoy your work ?
In a perfect world , I would enjoy my work if I do not have to do much , and make lots of money !
OK , honey , stop dreaming . You should face the reality .
That's only a joke . To be honest , I have to improve my English , because my English is not good enough . I still get confused about some simple grammars . Since you are quite good at it , do you have any suggestions ?
En , first you should be concentrated on what the teacher said in class . Second , I suggest you to take an additional course in some training center .
Is the training center helpful ?
Sally , I ' m tired of this Western food . I really miss my mother ' s Sichuan cooking .
I ' m sure you do miss that type of cooking . But can ' t you try to get used to Western food ?
I have tried . But Americans like butter , bread , sugar , and cream too much .
I suppose you ' re right , Lee . Maybe that ' s why so many Westerners are overweight .
It ' s interesting that Americans work very hard at their jobs , do not take naps during the day , and yet they can be so heavy .
Would you please teach me how to use the computer ?
Sure , let's take a look at the menu first .
Do I have to turn on the computer ?
yes , we can look at the computer and computer menu at the same time . And this will help us understand both better .
What should I learn first ?
Right now I'll teach you to open files , save files and copy files . Are you ready ?
It's very dark in here . Will you turn on the light ?
Okay . But our baby has fallen sleep .
Then , turn on the lamp , please .
But where's the switch ?
That looks like an interesting book .
It is . It ' s got pictures of interesting building from all over the world , with brief descriptions of how they were build , their purpose , and so on .
There are the pyramids . It ' s easy to see how they got that name ! they don ' t have smooth sides though .
They don ' t now , but most of them did originally . There ' s picture of the pentagon in the united states . It ' s very distinctive with its five sides .
Look at that cylindrical office building . I ' Ve never been seen one that shape before .
Yes . Usually only TV towers are cylindrical in shape .
TV towers are usually thicker at the bottom than at the top . They ' re not perfectly cylindrical .
This is the world ' s largest sports stadium . It ' s a massive oval .
What sports do they play there ?
It says here that it ' s m mainly used for big football matches and athletics meetings .
Is that building a perfect cube ?
According to the book , it is . I ' Ve never seen a building that is a perfect cube . Look at the building . From the air , it looks like a square with a semi-circle attached to each of its four sides . What
Please do excuse me for a moment . I've got diarrhea .
It's easy to get loose bowels in summer .
It may have something to do with the food I had last night
You ' Ve got to be careful on the food you eat .
Well , it was nice talking to you .
It was nice talking to you too .
We should really hang out again .
That would be fun .
Where do you want to go ?
I think we should go out to eat .
That sounds good .
All right , so I'll see you then .
I'll call you later .
Okay , I'll talk to you later then .
See you later .
I'd like to help pitch in with dinner .
Really ? You are joking ?
No , I'd like to do something special for you on your birthday .
I'd like that . Alright , put on this apron first .
OK . Now how can I help , hon ?
Hmm , let me see . Boil some water , and then whisk two eggs .
Easy , I can do that with my eyes closed . Done .
Not bad . OK , now take some meat and potatoes from the fridge .
How many potatoes do you need ?
Three . And bring four bell peppers .
Gotcha , OK . Here they are .
Now wash them , then dice the potatoes and bell peppers , then slice the meat .
Where is the peeler ?
It's in the cabinet . Adam , The gas cooker doesn't work .
What ? Oh shit ! I cut my finger .
Let me take a look at that . I can't stop the bleeding . We need to go to the hospital .
I ' m so sorry to call you on such short notice , but something ' s come up .
You mean for this afternoon ' s meeting ?
That ' s right I ' m afraid I have to postpone it . Mr . Scott got sick and I have to attend the Speechmaker ' s Symposium in his place . I ' m leaving today , and I won ' t be back until a week from Friday .
That ' s quite a while . Let ' s make it the week after you get back , then .
That will be great . So it ' s two weeks from tomorrow , same time and place . I ' m really sorry to do this to you .
How are you making out these days ?
Hello , I would like to speak with Ryan .
This is Ryan . How may I help you ?
Ryan , this is Malia , and I am afraid that I am feeling a bit under the weather .
Do you know what the problem is ?
I have a horrible rash from poison oak .
Have you had it a long time ?
The doctor said that I probably have had it a few days .
Have you been using anything for it ?
I bought some over-the-counter lotion , and I am taking an antihistamine .
John , you have done a good job . Our new series computer is appreciated by the guests . They intend to sign contracts with our company . You really did a good job .
Thank you . I can't imagine the design of the new computer is so popular among computer users .
Hah , as the sale department director of our team , you are the best .
I am flattered . But I am not sure whether the manager is satisfied with it . She asked me to her office .
Why not ? You've done so well for the company . She should give you a prize .
I feel nervous when I face her . She looks so serious when we have a conversation all the time .
Come on ! What are you nervous about ?
It is said that the sales for the new computer did not meet the expectation .
But the sale number is close to the predicted amount .
I'm still nervous . I don't know what to say to the manager . I always feel ill at ease in that kind of place .
So , Monica , how do you like your new office ?
Well , I love it . The room is special and clean with big windows and a lot of sunshine . There are plants along the corridor . Especially , I got my own desk with computer and telephone . Such a great place !
That ' s very good . I once turn down a job offer just because the office is awful .
What was so bad about it ?
Small rooms , small window , a small desk shared by three people . I would have been interrupted all the time and for sure not be able to deliver good work .
Sounds bad ! Lucky you ! You didn ' t take that job . I think a good office environment is also important to work efficiently .
Let's take a break .
Good idea . How about a cup of coffee ?
I've got some great news for you !
did you get the position you wanted ?
yes , I'll be promoted to department manager .
I'm glad to hear that . Congratulations !
thank you . Actually , I could not believe it at first . You know , there're so many outstanding people in our company . Many of them are qualified to fill that position .
sure , but you really did great and outperformed the others . You deserved it !
thank you very much .
you always have unique ideas and you're such a team leader .
I appreciate it very much . You've been doing great . I expect to see you be promoted pretty soon .
that's very nice of you to say so . I'll try my best . When will you start at the new position ?
next week .
so by then , you'll be in charge of the whole department .
Excuse me . Do you happen to have a gym here ?
Yes , sir . I think you'll find our gym quite satisfactory .
So , where do I go to exercise ?
It's only one flight down , sir . Just take the elevator or the stairs .
Am I going to be charged extra for using the gym ?
Sir , you can use the gym for free . All you need is your room key .
Great ! Now tell me , what are the hours of this gym ?
Sir , our gym is open around the clock , every day of the week .
Okay . Do you have a trainer to help me work out ?
Good afternoon , doctor .
Good afternoon . What can I do for you ?
I'm an athlete for the Olympic Games here .
About half an hour ago I fell on the ground and hurt my leg . It bled a lot .
Let me have a look . You're very lucky because the cut is not deep .
First , I'll clean up the wound and then dress it .
Must I stop all my training ? Will I be able to attend the games ?
Take it easy . It's not serious . You should keep the wound very clean .
Don't do strenuous exercises until your wound is healed .
Thank you very much , doctor .
I'll have to go now .
Drop in if you're free . Bye for now !
This sucks . I hate buying lingerie . Okay , just find something and get out of here . Alright , these are fine . Oh , no , don ' t come over here , don ' t come over here .
You look a little lost , can I help you ?
Um , I ' m just having a look around . It ' s my girlfriend ' s birthday tomorrow . I'm trying to find her something .
Well , you can ' t give her granny panties . Have you thought about getting her some sleepwear ? We ' Ve got these lovely , silky nighties . Or , how about a nice panty-and and-bra set . Look , here ' s a nice satin push-up bra , and you can choose a few different styles of undies to go with it .
Sure that ' s fine .
This is so awkward ... what ones do I pick ? What size is she ?
Well , do you want a thong , some bikini briefs , maybe this nice pair of lacy boy shorts ?
Just pick something and get the hell out of here . Um , I'll go with these two . This is mortifying . I just want to get this over with . She better thank me for this ...
Here you are , sir . I ' m sure she ' ll enjoy them .
Finally !
Mom . My legs are killing me .
Have you ever seen Bill Gate's home on the internet ?
No . what's it like ?
It's got its own library , theatre , swimming pool , and a guest house . The house itself has about ten different rooms that are all hooked up to computers so you can get things done in each room through a remote control . It's also located near the sea , so he can park his boats next to his house . It's absolutely amazing !
Would you want to live there ?
I think his house is fantastic , but I wouldn't want to live there . You would have to hire one or two people to clean all the rooms in the house , plus a few people to take care of the gardens , and probably an au pair or two to take care of the children . It's just too big of a place to take care of on your own .
What's your dreamhole like then ?
My dream home is actually just a small cottage in a quiet village in England .
Would you want to buy an old cottage or build a new one yourself ?
Old homes are great because they've got character . I think that's important .
Is that why you wear second-hand clothes as well ? Because they've got character ?
No , that's just because I don't have enough money to buy new cloths all the time !
I see . If you lived in an old house , would it be decorated in a modern way ?
Is there a bus in Altadena that'll take me to downtown LA ?
The 486 .
The 486 really goes downtown ?
Yes , it does .
How long is the bus ride ?
It's about forty-five minutes to an hour .
Is that right ?
Yeah , it's not that long of a trip .
Is that a crowded bus ?
It starts getting more crowded the closer you get to LA .
Thank you very much .
Would you like a cup of coffee ?
Yes . That would be good .
Oh , no .
What's the matter ?
This machine is out of order .
You shouldn't have used the machine . Did you lose your money ?
I sure did .
I'd like to meet you again sometime .
That would be great . Actually , can I get your phone number , Ella ? That's assuming you don't mind if I call you sometime .
Anytime . You can reach me at 5558929 .
Ok , got it . I will call you sometime next week .
Fine .
It's time to go . Bye , Ella . Hope to see you soon .
Office software like Windows might be one of the best inventions in this information age . It saves us from so much work and makes the communication even around the world much easier .
Fully agree . I do enjoy the convenience though I am still a beginner in using Excel . The latest office equipment is more type-functional . It combines fax machine , copy machine and printer in one . It saves a lot of place one machine instead of three .
Yes , this machine is even smaller than those before .
When will we get one of those ?
Excuse me . Have you got the time ?
My watch says half past five .
Does your watch keep good time ?
Oh yeah . It loses only a few seconds in the whole month .
Thanks for inviting me to your friend ' s wedding . I was surprised to hear the bride and groom talking to each other that way during the marriage ceremony . Is that common ?
Well , some people use a standard set of words , but many couples today write their own wedding vows .
Your tradition of throwing rice as they got into their car was interesting , but it didn't look like real rice to me .
It wasn't . It was birdseed . We don't throw rice anymore because someone discovered that birds come along and eat the rice and have trouble digesting it .
Oh , I didn't think of that . Well , this reception reminds me of weddingparties back in China . Plenty of food and drink , music and dancing , and interesting traditions .
Wait until you see what happens next ! The bride is getting ready to throw her bouquet . Let's go over and watch .
She ' s got quite a crowd around her . Oh , look ! That little girl caught it !
this is the route I thought we could take on our hike on Saturday afternoon .
how long is it altogether ?
it ' s about six or seven miles . That ' s about the kilometers .
that sounds OK . So , we start here at the car park and walk along the path to the waterfall .
right . Then we turn left and walk up this small hill . The view from the top of the hill is worth the climb . We can eat a snack there .
then we will follow this path down the hill to the old church .
we can spend a few minutes looking around the church . Then , we turn right and walk along this path .
this path leads to the cave . Can we look inside the cave ?
yes , we can , but it isn ' t very interesting .
then we turn south and come back to the car park along this path .
that ' s right .
how long do you think it will take us to complete the walk ?
I think it will take about four hours , including breaks .
that ' s fine . Are there signposts along the way , in case we get lost ?
Could I speak to Mr . Wu , please ?
Who ' s calling , please ?
This is Kevin .
Dodge Automobiles , may I help you ?
Is this Susan ?
No , I'm the operator .
Oh well , do you know if the Susan Li is available ?
We have the capital ready . Right now I am looking at three different companies to produce our products . And your company , Mr . Chen , seems to me to be the best for what we want .
I appreciate your remarks . And we are always happy to do more business . But , you know , if we take on a contract to produce new products , we want to be confident the product is marketable . Because , to start producing new things requires a lot of preparation . It requires a lot of investment for us .
You have some doubts about our products , I understand .
I would like to offer you a good price . But I won't be able to do that if I think this is a one-shot deal . So I would like to have some confidence in your idea .
Of course . Let me tell you in some detail about our idea . You know the popular Hello Kitty products .
Yes , of course .
Well , the products in themselves are very simple . It is the logo that is successful . So , Hello Kitty is successful because of the logo , but the products are very simple .
And I would say the logo is successful mainly because it comes from Japan . It is the Japanese that have made it a fad .
That might be true . But we have a logo concept that is great . It is really great . I think it will catch on in Taiwan at least . Young people will love it . It is because of our logo that our products will sell . We just need someone to produce the products for us . We have the backup and people to do the marketing .
So what you are really trying to sell is a fad .
Yes , we would like to make things like key chains , plastic pencil sharpeners , plastic rulers , watches , wallets , things like that . Little accessories for young people . But the reason these will sell is the logo . Just like Hello Kitty .
I understand . But why won't you show me the logo ?
Because it hasn't been copyrighted . We want to get some protection for it . But while we wait for copyright , we are investigating companies to produce the products .
I see . The problem , however , is that I can't be confident in giving you a good priceless I am confident your product will last .
I understand . For now , though , you could just give us an estimated price . We aren't going to sign a contract yet . We are just investigating . I only need to know that your company is capable of producing the products . And then , I only need a very rough idea of how much it might cost .
Alright . I understand . Right now you just want estimates .
Besides , yours don't have side pockets like mine .
Cool ! They're big ! What have you got in there ?
Just the necessities
Are you planning a trip to the Outback ?
No , but you never know when you'll need a flashlight .
Life's so boring .
Well , most of the time it is , I guess .
What do you think will make you happy ?
I think money will make me happy .
You heard people say that money doesn't guarantee happiness .
It will for me . Then I can do all the things I want to do .
You'll get bored eventually .
Then I can find something new to do . If I don't have to worry about money , then I don't have to work .
That's true , I guess . If I didn't have to work , I think I would be happy .
Gosh ! The water faucet is dripping badly again .
You are going to have a huge bill .
I know . I ' Ve got to get it fixed ASAP .
Don't you wanna get it fixed now ?
I wish I could , but I ' Ve got to go now . I have an appointment in 20 minutes .
Well , if you need anything , just let me know .
Oh , by the way , could you give me a ride ? My car is still in the garage .
Good day . Welcome to IBA , what can I assist you with today ?
Hello , yes , I'm a stock investor and I'm looking at opening a new account with you . Perhaps your new compound savings one ? I already have a Current Account with you .
That's no trouble , Sir .
I'm mostly interested in the personalized services you offer , with stock market news , etc . It sounds just perfect for me , as I'm too busy to be constantly at the computer checking the performance .
Yes , that's just one of the services we offer in our Personal Financing Program .
What I need to know is how I can keep track of what's going on . I mean , some days I buy and sell quite a lot . Some days , there's no activity at all .
For every transaction you make , a statement will be drawn up and can be posted to you or sent via e-mail , or if you want to be double sure we can do both .
Here . Keep the change .
Oh , thank you very much .
You're welcome . By the way , is there a pay phone near here ?
Yes , there's one just on the other side of this building . Do you have any small change ?
Excuse me , is there a swimming pool in your hotel ?
Yes , the swimming pool is right behind the building . Walk out of the door and you will see it .
What's the fare ?
$ 10 per hour .
hello ! How are you .
not too well ! I ' m just to the doctor . I haven ' t been feeling too well .. over the last few days .
what have you got ? A cough ? A cold ?
that ' s the funny thing . I don ' t what ' s wrong with me . I just feel exhausted .
perhaps you ' Ve been working too hard . You do have a high-pressure job .
maybe . I haven ' t been able to keep my food down either . That ' s unusual .
well . I ' m sure the doctor will be able to prescribe something to make you well again . Dr . Jameson is very good .
yes , he is . I ' Ve make an appointment for 10 o ' clock , so I ' d better move along .
What's the matter ?
Which subway should I take to get to the East Side ?
Oh , you have to take the shuttle to Grand Central .
Which train is that ? Which platform does it leave from ?
Did you vote ?
Of course !
Who was your vote for President ?
My vote was for Barack Obama .
I didn ' t expect him to win .
I had no doubt in my mind that he would win .
What made you think that ?
Nobody could compete with him .
I thought his race would have kept him from winning .
Times are changing .
That ' s true .
I am tired of everything in my life .
What ? How happy you life is ! I do envy you .
You don ' t know that I have been over-protected by my mother these years . I am really about to leave the family and spread my wings .
Come in and have some coffee , Anna . The kids have just gone out to the mall to hang out with their friends .
I saw a lot of teenagers when Alan and I were there yesterday .
They spend hours there , especially on weekends .
Speaking of that trip , Alan bought a shirt at a department store , but the sleeves are too long . Do you know a seamstress or tailor who can shorten them ?
I know several . But wouldn ' t it be easier to take the shirt back and exchange it for the right size ?
Isn ' t that complicated ?
No , it ' s easy . We ' ll just take the shirt back to the men ' s department and show them the sales slip . They ' ll exchange it for the correct size or give you a refund .
We ? Do you want to go with me ?
Sure . I love going to the mall .
That was a tough question . How did you get it right ?
Where will you go in your vacation ?
Oh , I'm hoping to take courses in my vacation .
So , where can I start my work ?
Well , your job is to compile and analyze financial information to prepare entries to accounts . You ' re also responsible for preparing profit and loss statements and monthly closing and cost accounting reports .
And I represent ?
Our company just concluded a business transaction . You can help with documenting varies financial sheets involved in this transaction .
Ok , thank you .
I am looking for a blouse . Can you show me the way , please ?
OK , what style do you want ?
I have no idea . Could you recommend me one ?
What about this one ? It fits you .
Hello . Welcome !
Hello . I'd like to have my nails manicured .
This way please . We offer multiple manicure services here . Do you want a full service ?
I don't need the full service .
But the full service will make your nails look much prettier and it is on discount now .
No , thanks . All I need is painting and polishing .
OK . Please sit down . I hope you will be satisfied with our service .
Yo baby , are you satisfied with the costume show in the street ?
Hello . What can we do for you today ?
I've just had some money sent from Germany , in Euros .
OK , could you give me your details and I'll see if it has cleared . We need your banking details and some ID . A passport or something like that ?
I have my passport right here , and here are the account details . The name , number ...
Mr Jurgen , yes , the remittance has been successful .
That was quick ! I didn't expect it to come through so quickly . Yes , that is good news . The full amount should be 20,000 Euros , is that right ? I'd like to withdraw 5,000 Euros worth of local currency , if that's possible .
There's a concert in Capital Theatre this Sunday .
So what ?
Look , I have two tickets . Will you go with me ?
Did everyone fill out their entry permits ?
Yes . The videographer has already started filming my parents trying to speak English with the flight attendants .
Speaking of flight attendants , they keep smiling at me . I wonder why ...
It'll be the year 2000 ! The flight attendants are coming over here . They're carrying bottles of champagne !
That's because it's time .
Time for what ?
It's time to make our wedding wish come true ...
You mean get married now ? On the plane ?
Why not ? I've got the rings ready .
I don't know what to say , Jack !
What did you usually do as a head nurse ?
I allocate different patients with their consent to different nurses . And I supervise the primary nurses and help nurses carry out their work .
How to maintain a high standard of nursing ?
I'm sorry for spilling my drink on your rug .
There's no need to apologize .
But I ruined your rug .
I lost my wallet .
Hello , Jenny . What's the matter ?
John , I'm hard up at the moment . Could you lend me five hundred yuan ? I'll return it to you early next month .
No problem , Jenny . Are you sure five hundred is enough ?
Where are we headed now ?
To a historic coffeehouse . It's got a little Mafia story to it .
Awesome . Was someone killed there ?
Oh , yeah , while he was eating , and he was a pretty famous Don .
Cool ! Is it safe for us to eat there though ?
Is there a bus that'll go all the way to Sons from PHS ?
Where is this Sons located ?
The Sons on Fair Oaks and Orange Grove .
You're going to need to take two buses to get to that Sons .
Which buses will I have to take ?
First , you need to get on the 268 going west .
Then what do I do ?
You need to get off on Fair Oaks and Washington .
What's next ?
Get on the 261 , and it'll take you the rest of the way to Sons .
There's nothing else ?
Do you like swimming ?
Yes . Swimming is one of my most favorite sports , indoors or out-doors .
Me too . Swimming is a very good exercise for health . It combines water , bath , sunbath , and air bath together . It promotes the growth and haleness of muscles , bone , viscera and nerve systems .
I have never thought that swimming can bring us so many benefits . I only know that swimming in great waves and deep running water can train people's spirits , and enable people to be fearless of the hardships , dangers and difficulties and become brave and staunch .
Have you ever swum in a river or a lake ?
Do you like snakes ?
Of course not . I'm afraid of them .
I mean , do you like snake meat ?
oh , Sam ! Is this your dog ?
it's Cindy , you know that . Hey , Cindy , say hello to Maria .
Cindy , you're so cute .
she is also very naughty . By the way , do you have a dog , Maria ?
I have a little white cat .
Oh , a cat ? Come on .
yes , cats are always gentle . and they don't need a lot of space since they're small .
but I think they're dull , aren't they ?
not at all . They're quiet most of the time . But they can be every bit as affectionate as dogs .
well , cats are certainly more independent .
absolutely . Believe it or not , I found my cat by a garbage can around my neighborhood two years ago .
oh , really ? so you just took home a stray cat ?
yes . It was starving and looking for something to eat when I saw it .
Poor cat .
Hello ! How do I get online with my laptop ?
Just plug the Ethernet cable into your computer , and you'll be online in a heartbeat .
Well , I see the cable . But my computer runs on wireless only .
No problem . I'll tell you about our alternatives .
Yes , I'd love to hear what the alternatives are .
Our state-of-the-art computer lab is on the first floor .
Great ! But is it free ?
Sir , the computers are free to guests , but you do have to pay a nominal printing fee .
You said there were other alternatives ?
Just use your computer here in the lobby . It's set up for wireless .
Okay . That sounds like a winner . Now if I need to print something in the lobby ?
Lily , do you know Lizzy ?
Lizzy who ?
Lizzy smith .
Of course I do .
Then , Do you know her younger sister ?
You mean Mary ?
Yes .
Sure . I know her elder sister Sue and younger sister Mary .
Oh , not bad . Then do you know her mother ?
Yes , certainly . I know her mother and father , and brother and sisters , too .
That sounds terrific .
Why do you ask me these questions ?
These two sections need to be re-written , Jerry . The last guy that did this really mixed things up .
Yeah , I could tell that . That ' s no problem . I can probably get it re-done by tomorrow . When ' s our meeting with the boss ?
Not until next week , I think , the 15th .
Good ! There's the information desk . How do we get to the 70th Street , please ?
The Northern Line is what you want .
How much is it ?
It's two yuan .
Which way do we go for the Northern Line ?
Just go through the No . 8 ticket-barrier over there . A train will be in directly .
I appreciate it . Thank you .
How was your date with Betty ?
Garage sale , what does that mean ?
Well , it is like a shop but the things here are quite cheap .
How much is the tape record ?
$ 5 .
That's really cheap . I will take it .
what do you think about this store ? I heard it ' s a posh store that ' s only got branches in big cities .
I love this store . The only problem is that it ' s extremely expensive .
don ' t worry . I ' Ve decided that for your birthday I ' m going to take you shopping for a new dress .
really ? I thought you hated shopping ?
I do , that ' s why you should appreciate this gift !
sure . That ' s really nice of you . Let ' s go in and try some things on .
how about this red dress ? I think it would really suit you .
that ' s gorgeous ! Do they have it in a size 8 ?
here you go . On any other day , it would cost me a fortune , but it ' s on special offer today .
I think this color isn ' t quite right for me . Do they have the same dress in white ?
let me look . Let ' s see ... they ' Ve got one in blue , green , pink , black ... and white . Here you are .
this is perfect ! What do you think ?
I think you look fantastic . Happy Birthday !
You look a bit under the weather .
I am not feeling all the great . I think I have that crud that is going around .
I know that it ' s going around the dorms .
My boyfriend hasn ' t been feeling so well . Maybe he passed it on to me .
I have some cold tablets if you would like one .
Mostly , I feel like I need some rest and hot soup .
Drinking liquids and getting rest is a good idea with a cold .
My grandmother thinks that honey and whiskey is a good cure for a cold .
You could always go to the pharmacy if it gets worse and you want suggestions .
Hi , Monica , I am afraid I can ' t make it to the office to punch out .
Where are you ?
I am still in XYZ Company , this meeting took longer than I expected . Say to it that the office manager knows I won ' t be in to punch my card .
Dick , I ' Ve decided not to rent that house .
But yesterday you said you would rent it .
I ' Ve changed my mind .
Why is that ?
Well , I think maybe I should find a house that is closer to where I work .
Can you put me through to May Flower Restaurant , please ?
Just a second ... Sorry , the line is engaged .
OK , I ' ll try later . Thanks anyway .
Excuse me , when is the next train to Los Angeles ?
ten fifteen a . m .
Can I get the ticket here ?
Sorry . You have to buy your ticket at the next counter .
Do you have any certificates on computer ?
Yes . I have ACRE ( National Computer Rank Examination ) certificate , Rank II .
How did you get it ?
Excuse me , what's the screen near your steering wheel for ?
It's a portable TV . It's a popular thing now .
Oh , that's new to me . So what's on everyday ?
News about current affairs , documentaries , music , movies , noncommercial ads and so on .
Is there anything interesting ?
Yes , there are something good and informative . I think that many people underestimate the value of TV in education .
I agree . Are there any commercials on the TV ?
Of course . Because the TV stations need to make money from commercials between the programs .
That makes a lot of sense . Does the TV work well ?
Not always . It depends on the transmission of the satellite signals .
I got it . Do you pay for the programs ?
Can you imagine a boat letting in the river ?
That would be terrible .
Sure thing . I have an experience like that .
Oh , how were you saved finally ?
Do you think I still fashionable in this dress ?
I think so . Blue is still very fashionable at the moment .
This style came out last year , though . I like the dress , but I ' m not sure whether last year ' s fashions will be same this year .
I think this kind of dress will stay in fashion for a few more years . People don ' t change fashions every year . It would be too expensive .
Yes . Only the top designer try to tell people to change fashion every year , but only rich people can do it .
There are some real fashion victims who just have to keep totally up-to-date with expensive clothes .
I wish I could be one of those people , but my budget simply doesn ' t stretch that far . I have to limit the amount of money I spend on clothes otherwise I would go on a shopping frenzy .
Did you listen to the weather forecast ?
No . Why ?
There ' s a typhoon coming .
No way !
What does your mother do , may I ask ?
My mother works in a company as an accountant .
Is she busy ?
Where's the nearest tailor's ?
There is one just around the corner .
The jacket is tight in the shoulders and long in the sleeve . What about the price there ?
The price is moderate , but their work is sometimes not satisfactory .
Is there a better tailor's around here ?
How about a game of tennis ?
Okay . Loser has to take out the trash for a month .
It's a deal .
Susan , Is the manager in this office ?
Yes . But he is meeting a client .
Oh , that's too bad . I just got a phone call saying that my wife is now in the hospital . She is going to deliver a baby . I must take the day off to go to the hospital . May I talk to him to ask for leave ?
I am afraid not , but I think I could convey your leave to him after the client goes .
May I help you ?
My daughter . She is missing . I don ' t know where she is .
What dose she look like ?
She has blond hair and blue eyes .
What was she wearing ?
She has a yellow dress on and red sneakers .
When did you last see her ?
I just saw her down the street . I don ' t know where she is . I don ' t know ...
How long has it been ?
There is something wrong with my girlfriend .
What's the trouble ?
The department manager is all over her . He says he loves her .
What about your friend ? Did she fall for him ?
Of course not ! She thinks he's an apple-head . She doesn't like an apple-headed man , you know .
Okay , can I ask you something direct ?
Ha ! It's not like you've ever been one to beat around the bush .
Fair enough . Give it to me straight . Did she bully you into this ?
No , seriously . . . I really want this .
I tell ya , when I got the invite , it really threw me for a loop . You've done a complete 180 .
I know . But things have changed . I guess I've settled down .
May I help you , sir ?
Yes . I would like a pair of black leather shoes in size 25 .
Please try these on .
The tip is rather narrow .
May I speak to Marry ?
Marry is not in right now , she went shopping with her mum .
Will it be too late if I call around ten this evening ?
What's the most popular sport in your country ?
Table tennis .
Do you play table tennis ?
I like this apartment . Do you think we can afford the mortgage ?
Yes . I think so . It ' s not a very expensive apartment . It ' s in the right area and it has everything that we are looking for . The rooms are quite large too .
I love the balcony . We can sit outside and enjoy the sun in summer . We are on the 12th floor , so there ' s very nice view from the balcony .
The neighbourhood is nice too . There is a park nearby .
Yes , and there are many houses nearby . I like it that the neighbourhood isn ' t full of apartment blocks .
It ' s a pity we can ' t afford a house . A garden would be so nice .
Yes , it would . Don ' t worry . There ' s a lawn outside the building and there ' s the park nearby . This place will be fine .
The building is quite new and well constructed . I ' m happy with the fittings too .
Oh , my God ! I feel nothing is going smooth .
I ' Ve been having problems getting onto the Internet .
Have you checked your connection settings ?
Yes , they're fine . I suppose . the server might be down again .
Excuse me . What's the actual flying time from here to San Francisco ?
It's about twelve hours .
Can you tell me what time we're arriving ?
Sure . Let me see ... at 6:15 a . m . local time tomorrow .
I see .
Welcome ! Sophia told us you were coming !
Um ... It's wonderful to be here . Uh ... this place looks really cozy .
Thank you ! Your cheeks are as red as a tomato ! Are you shy ?
Maybe ...
Some of my grappa will cure your shyness .
Is that a kind of alcohol ?
It's a clear spirit we drink any time of the day . You will love it !
Which service offered by your bank do you use most ?
I use several services . Of course , I deposit and withdraw money quite often . I often use my ATM card to take money out of my current account . I use my bank to exchange money from once currency to another . I often travel abroad , you see .
Do you ever ask you bank for traveller ' s cheques ? They are much safer than carrying lots of cash around .
I sometimes use traveller ' s cheques , but sometimes I travel to countries where they are hard to exchange for cash .
Do you use your bank to pay your utility bills ? I use direct debit .
Yes , I do . It save me a lot of time . I also have standing orders for my subscriptions to magazines .
That ' s good idea . You don ' t need to worry about missing an issue of a magazine if you do that . I suppose you have a mortgage too .
Yes . My bank offers very good terms and conditions on mortgage . There ' s a lot of competition between banks nowadays . Each one is trying to offer better conditions and services than the others .
I have a deposit account with my bank . There are some restrictions on withdrawing money , but the interest rate is much higher .
I don ' t have one . I prefer to buy shares . My bank also provides a share trading service . It ' s cheap and easy to use .
Mrs . Sue ?
Yes ?
Mr . Brown will have to call you back in a little while .
Hello .
Hi , Daddy . It ' s me , Troy .
Hi , Troy . How ' s your trip going ?
It ' s nice . I arrived safely .
Are you all right ?
I ' m fine . Is everything fine in the family ?
Yes . Everything is fine in the family . Don ' t worry about the family . Just enjoy your trip . How ' s the weather there ?
The weather is gorgeous here .
That ' s good . Take good care of yourself .
I will . Thank you , Dad .
I love you , Troy .
How did you first meet ?
My roommate invited both of us to dinner .
Was it love at first sight ? Did you fall in love with her the first time you met her ?
Why do you look so gloomy ? What are you looking for ?
My dissertation . I put it somewhere last night and I can't find it now .
Did you finish typing it yesterday ?
Yes , I kept on typing it until midnight , but it is lost .
Don't worry about it . It must be somewhere in your room . Let's see where you put it . Have you searched your drawers and the desk ?
Yes , but there is nothing inside the drawers or on the desk .
How about the shelf ?
I've searched everywhere . Where on earth did I put it ?
Don't get upset over it . At least you have another week to go .
I have been working on it for a whole month and it's too late to write another . Just think of all my hard work that goes for nothing . How could I do such a thing ?
Cheer up ! What I meant was that you can find it sometime during a week . There is no need to write a new one . Oh , what's this ? Is this your dissertation ?
Let me see . Yes , that's it . Where did you find it ?
You ' Ve put it among these journals .
Oh , no !
How dreadful !
Look at the view from the window .
Oh , dear . That ' s terrible . Not at all what I expected .
It ' s awful , isn ' t it ?
I can ' t bear to look at it . I ' m rather disappointed .
To start with , may I know why you are interested in working for our company ?
First , as far as I know , your company has had an impressive growth record . Second , I want to get into the foreign trade business .
Now you are with Quandong Company . What is your chief responsibility there ?
I'm in charge of marketing activities in South-East Asia , for example , organizing trade conferences and arranging exhibitions .
Do you have any questions about the job ?
Yes . Are the chances for employees to be transferred to overseas branches of the company ?
Certainly . This is an international company , and ther're good chances for you to work overseas .
Excuse me , sir . I can't find my baggage . Here is my claim tag .
Don't worry , madam . Can you make a description of your baggage ?
One is a small-size Nike in red and the other is a big one in black . The two are tied together .
Excuse me , do you have A tale of Two Cities ? I'd like a copy of it .
Who is the author ?
Charles Dickens .
Sorry , we ' re sold out right now . Please come back next week .
Is there a lot of oil and coal in your country ?
There is some , but my country is not amongst the leading producers . The oil and coal deposits are in the north of my country . Your country is a big oil producer , isn ' t it ?
Yes , it is . My country is famous for having that natural resources . We also have a lot of natural gas .
We have some too . Do you have a lot of coal ?
No coal has been discovered in my country , but there may be undiscovered deposits . We don ' t have many metal deposits .
There are a few in my country . We have deposit of gold , but they are very small .
When I traveled around your country , I bought some jewellery made from gold from your country . The jewellery told me that there are few gold mines in your country . The gold was found in mountain steams .
That ' s right . A few people go panning for gold in rivers .
You have many trees in your country . That ' s another natural resources .
It ' s a natural resources that we hardly use . Government policy is to conserve those forests .
I see . That ' s probably a good idea . Too many forest are being destroyed .
Is your country ' s environment being damaged by the oil industry ?
Does your wife work ?
Yes , she does . She works at home .
Oh , I understand . She cooks , cleans and takes care of children . Is that right ?
Oh , no . Most of the time I do these things . She is a writer .
Welcome to IBA . Which service do you require ?
I hope you can help me . I've been told about something called ' Financing Link ' ?
Yes , that is our Personal Wealth Management Service .
Could you tell me more ?
Of course . Financing Link is a value-added service , and can be tailored to suit your requirements .
So , I can choose exactly what services I require ? That's brilliant . Can I use the card if I'm overseas to withdraw my daily expenses ?
Certainly . We can arrange the structure to suit whatever you require . That's why this service is so popular ; it's suitable for everyone because we make it that way .
Welcome to IBA . How can I help you ?
You called yesterday to tell me that our funds under the L / C had arrived ? It's Ming Cha Legal Services .
Oh , yes . I remember . You must be Mr Xie . It's nice to put a face to a voice .
Yes , it sure is . The L / C number is JD185649000023 .
JD185649000023 ? Yes , found it . 175,000 Euros , is that correct ? JD185649000023 ?
Correct . Could I convert that into RIB ?
Yes , you can . Just wait a moment and I'll do that for you now .
Did you hear how cold it got last night ?
I heard the radio announcer say it was 18 degrees below zero .
It was so cold this morning . I could hardly start my car .
My car didn't want to start either at first .
Don't you have a garage ?
Not in the new apartment . We have to leave the car in the parking lot .
How much antifreeze did you put in your new car then ? You must have to keep it well below zero .
I do . Right now I have it protected up to 30 below zero .
Does it ever get that cold on here ?
Not really . It sometimes gets to 20 below .
May I have your order now ?
Yes , we'd have your regular dinner . What courses are there , please ?
The courses for our regular dinner are , appetizer , soup , beef steak , dessert and coffee .
All right , we'll have it .
What kind of dessert do you want ?
Do you have some chocolate cakes ?
Yes , we have .
OK , we will choose it .
I thought about what you said .
And what did you decide ?
I decided that you're right .
Sandra is actually blue chipper . I don't think she could realize that she has married a fool for women .
That's fate .
I feel sorry for her .
What can I do for you ?
Well , I'd like some legal advice . Jane and I are thinking of incorporating . So Want to find out what sort of legal procedure one follows in forming a corporation .
You begin by applying for a corporate charter . And then stockholders hold a meeting to organize the corporation , an individual has limited liability and the right .
I know . I have an idea that we get together to discuss this next week .
OK .
How do you use an ATM card , Billy ?
It ' s easy , grandpa . Insert you card into the machine here . Then wait a moment . OK . Now you enter your PIN . It should have four numbers .
Oh yes . I ' Ve got it written down here . Just a minute .
You really shouldn ' t write it down . You should memorise it . You can change it to a more convenient number if you like .
OK , I ' Ve entered my PIN . There are several options on the screen . I guess I just choose which service I want , don't I ?
Yes . Choose the service you need to use . If you choose to withdraw money , the machine will ask you how much you want .
I can just enter the amount using the key , right ?
That ' s right . Give the machine a moment to process you request . Then take your money .
Our team just scored a goal .
That's more like it .
Tell me about it .
What do you think of the Olympic motto ' Higher , faster and stronger ' ?
Well , it's better than ' Friendship first , competition second ' .
Why ? In my opinion , it doesn't matter whether you won or not . The most important thing is participation .
Hi charles , I want you know that i finally found an apartment in haitian .
You did ? that is great !
Yeah , I am having a party this saturday night , a sort of house warming , and i want to invite you . are you busy ?
No i am free , i will be there , what time the thing starting ?
Around seven .
Ok , great , should i bring anything ?
No , but thanks for offering , actually could you bring some fold-up chairs for people if you have any ? I am afraid not everyone's going to have a seat , do you have any ?
sure , I will be happy to bring a few , what is the address ?
Don't worry , I will come to pick you up at about six thirty .
Hi , are you Catherine ?
Yes , Jason , right ? Nice to meet you . Welcome to Taiwan .
Thanks , good to meet you , too .
You had a long flight , you must be tired .
Yes , and the food was horrible !
Oh , sorry to hear that . But , don worry ! Taiwan has plenty of great things to eat . First , lets get you to the hotel .
Great ! How will we be getting there ?
Anything else ?
Yes , one last thing . How much holiday time do you give your employees every year ?
Our employees receive 15 days of paid vacation every year . If you don't use the full 15 days , they carry over to the following year .
How about sick days ?
You get 5 paid sick days .
Any other benefits ?
Yes , we have an excellent retirement plan and medical insurance as well .
Great . Thanks so much for your time .
Welcome to China , Mr . Martin .
Thank you so much . I have been expecting to come to China .
I am very glad that you say so . We have prepared a typical Chinese dinner this evening .
Oh , you needn't do that .
Hello , have you made a reservation ?
No , are there any vacant beds for us ?
Of course . How do you like your room ?
Just an ordinary one , six people living in a room .
OK , how long are you staying ?
Are we supposed to get off right here ?
I think so ; hurry up and get off .
Where are we ?
I don't know .
You said this was the right stop .
I think I was wrong .
Did we get off the bus too early ?
I don't know ; it kind of looks like we did .
Why did you tell me to get off ?
I'm sorry . I thought this was our stop .
I really don't feel like walking .
I want to leave home , mum .
Why ?
I am a grown-up , and I can stand on my own two feet .
Excuse me , would you like to be our guide ?
Of course .
It's our first time to be here , so would you please arrange a schedule for us ?
With pleasure . I think we should go to the palace first .
Excuse me for being late to work .
Where have you been ?
My car broke down .
That's too bad . Please try to fix it so that it doesn't happen again .
Yes , I'll work on it .
Thank you , have a seat . We are working on the new project
Great ! Fill me in .
Let's take a look at the Campbell Project .
I don't understand the projected revenues .
Wake up , Mary .
What is it ? It's eight in the morning .
We're all going to church . Do you want to come ?
No . I'm not a religious person .
Are you sure ?
Maybe next weekend . I went to bed too late last night .
Okay , then . We'll be back around noon .
Excuse me . Can you tell me how to find some books on social science ?
Sure . You see all these little drawers here and all the way around the walls ?
Yes .
These drawers contain cards describing every book in our library . Together they constitute the library's " card catalog " . You can see that each drawer runs from one part of the alphabet to another . Fox example , this drawer goes from SCA to SCM .
So if I'm looking for a look called A History of Western Society , I'd just look under ' A ' .
No . You'd look under ' W ' . The articles ' a ' and ' the ' don't count in our alphabetization , and cards are generally omitted for extremely common words and phrases such as ' history of ' , ' introduction to ' , ' story of ' and so forth .
What if I don't know the title of the book ?
Well , you can look under the author's name .
Could you give me an example ?
Mum , pass me some more please !
Tina , you should have more nutritious food . Don't eat these crisps any more .
But the ads say they're most nutritious .
I like small towns .
But many roads are very narrow .
Not always , and there're also few cars !
I think it is easier to buy a car than to maintain it . What ' s worse , I just don ' t trust those vehicle maintenance shops . Sometimes , they overcharge or don ' t build those parts I have been paying for . Last week , they even tried to persuade me to buy new parts which really need not to be changed . You know , my car is just half a year old and also good brand . I was just wondering about all these .
There are such shops living on selling parts . I don ' t like their service either . All they want is your money . But in the long run , they will be losing costumers . Anyway , car service business is new in China . We all have to control what they are doing . Otherwise , they will not improve .
Is it possible to make a compliant call to some organization what it ' s someone gets rip-off .
Good morning , can I have your ticket , please ?
Here you are .
Thank you . Would you like a window or an aisle seat ?
Mark ! I was wondering if you finished that presentation you were working on last week ?
Just about . It should be done in the next couple of days . Why ?
Mr . Rodriguez was asking me about it yesterday .
Could you help me ?
What do you need ?
I can't seem to find my class .
What building is it in ?
It's in the C building .
Oh , I know exactly where that is .
Do you think you can tell me where it is ?
Sure , what room number is it ?
It's room number 261 .
I have a class around there right now .
Could you show me where it is ?
How's your new car ?
Perfect ! Couldn't be better .
You made a good choice , then ?
It's just what I want .
No regrets .
I am really pleased with it .
I am glad you are happy .
so , what ' s new in the kitchen ? That refrigerator is new , isn ' t it ?
yes . I needed a large one . Before , I had a separate refrigerator and freezer , but this has both combined into one .
That ' s usual nowadays . You ' Ve added a few shelves too .
yes . You know I ' Ve been cooking more kind of food recently and I needed some extra space for spices and ingredients .
Did you buy new cupboards too ?
no , I didn ' t . I gave them a really good clean , so they just look new . The worktop was in poor condition , so I had a new one added .
I see that you have bought several new pots and pans and utensils .
Shall we have some soup first ?
No , thank you . I don't like soup . I'd rather have some fruit juice to start with .
Ok , and what about the main course ? Which would you rather have fish or meat ?
Meat , I think .
Don't you like fish then ?
I do , but I want meat .
Shall we have some white wine then ?
Yes , but I prefer red wine with meat .
What would you like for dessert ?
I just want to have a coffee , I think .
Fine , and after dinner , shall we go to a disco ?
Will you be done doing my hair soon ?
Give me a little while longer .
How much time do you need ?
There you go . How do you like it ?
I think it looks gorgeous .
You think it looks nice ?
I honestly think it looks great .
Thanks . I'm glad that I did a good job .
How much is it for my hair ?
Just give me $ 55 .
Thanks for doing such a good job .
Hi , this is Quipu Corp . Is that Miss Zhang ?
Yes . speaking . Is there anything I can do for you ?
I am calling to tell you the items you are supposed to bring for the interview the day after tomorrow .
What do I need to take with me ?
Room service . what can I do for you ?
I would like to have my room cleaned . Would you please send a maid here right now ?
OK . Someone will be there right away .
Hi , is this Rich ?
Yeah , who ' s calling ?
It ' s Alex ... Have I got some great news ! We got the Baker account . It ' s all ours !
This visit is over for me . Here's your room key .
Thank you for that , and in return , here's your receipt .
And thanks to you .
I hope you'll visit us again , sir .
I'd be willing to try this hotel again , if you can promise me no more cockroaches .
What ' s " pi " ?
That ' s the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter , I think .
I see . What is that ratio exactly ?
It ' s approximately 3 . 14 , but the number continues forever . What ' s the diameter of your circle ?
It ' s 10 centimeters , so the circumference should be 31 . 4 centimeters .
Ok . My next problem is to convert 10000 british pounds into us dollars . What ' s the exchange rate at the moment ?
According to the newspaper , the exchange rate is 1 . 85 dollars to the pound .
That means that 10 . 000 pounds will buy me 18 . 500 dollars .
What ' s the next question .
Fractions . What ' s a quarter and an eighth ? That ' s three-eights . Easy . The next question is " what are prime numbers ? " .
I can help you there . Those are numbers that cannot be created by multiplying two whole numbers , apart from the number itself and 1 , together .
So , 1,2 and 3 are prime numbers , but 4 isn ' t because 2 * 2 = 4 .
Exactly . Anything else ?
How many seconds in an hour ? 60 seconds multiplied by 60 minutes equals 3600 seconds altogether .
We'd like a half-day package .
We offer many different sea water treatments .
How many can we choose ?
The aquamedic pool is included . You can choose three .
We'll do the seaweed wrap , the jet bath , and the foot massage .
Can you show me how to use this phone ?
Yes , I can help you with that . Pick up the receiver and hit one of the buttons . Do you hear a tone ?
No , I don't hear anything .
Next you dial 9 on the keypad . You should hear the tone change . Did you hear it change ?
I'm not sure .
OK . Well , after you get the line to change you have an outside line . Who are you trying to call ?
I am trying to call a client .
To call a number on the outside you now just dial the number . For inside calls , punch in the extension number . Has someone given you an extension list ?
No , I don't know anyone's extension .
May I see you around 10 o'clock tomorrow morning , please ?
Certainly . Come to my office at ten ten . Be prompt , please . I've another appointment at 11 .
Are the ceremony and reception held in the same place ?
No , not usually . Most people are married in a church , and then the wedding party and guests go to another place for the reception . Sometimes , however , they hold the reception in a big room in the church .
Where do they go ?
Either they go to a public place such as a hotel , a restaurant , or a club , or to the home of the brid
They go to the home of the bride ?
Why do you ask ?
The Chinese custom is to go to the groom's home-just the opposite .
Oh ! In our country the bride's family is responsible for the entire wedding-arrangement , costs , etc . So the reception is held at her home .
That's very expensive for the family of the bride .
Many American furthers joke that they would rather hold the ladder for their daughter to climb down and elope than pay for a wedding .
Tell me something about the bridal bouquet . Isn't it the custom to throw it ?
Yes . When the bride and groom are ready to leave on their honeymoon all the single girls gather in one place . The bride stands with her back to them and throws her bouquet over her shoulder and they each try to catch it . The one who does will be the next one married .
Excuse me , would you mind changing seats with me ?
Not at all .
Thank you . That's very kind of you .
I've just got Bean's new brand image . Let's make a T-shirt line with these pics .
Are you nuts ? It's the President of the United States in lingerie !
Exactly ! With the war in Iraq , they'll sell like crazy around the world .
What's next ? Tony Blair in high heels ?
Sure . I'd rather show Bean in a garter belt , but all in good time .
Is there any way we could get a better warranty on this product ?
Well , I can't give you a better warranty , if you would be willing to agree to an annual contract .
That might not be ideal because there would be some drawbacks to an annual contract situation that might make it difficult to sell to our buyers . What about free delivery ? If we make a large enough order , could you waive the deliver fee ?
Yes , our delivery fee could be waived , if you make an order of 50 units or more . We would have to insist on the annual contract , however . I understand it's not the most convenient for you . Perhaps we could shorten it to a sixth month contract if you are willing to take a lower rebate .
Where are you from ?
I'm from Germany .
So you speak German , don't you ?
Yeah , but I can speak English , too .
Oh , I see . What other languages can you speak ?
A little French .
Shall I punch out for you , Ross ? I am leaving now .
No , thanks . I have got to work overtime .
But today is Friday . You are not going to work overtime on Friday evening , are you ?
Well , I am . I'll have to finish this report for next Monday's meeting . Is Tom coming to pick you up ?
No . We ' ll meet at my house . He invited my family to spend the weekend with his family at their villa .
That's nice . Where is his villa ?
It's not his villa , but his father's . I think it's somewhere in Florida . I am not sure myself .
Sometimes I envy you a lot . Tom is a good guy .
Come on . You just haven ' t met the right person and I think that you work too much . You should learn how to entertain yourself and enjoy life .
I know , but I am a work maniac .
Well , suit yourself . I've got to run now .
Have a nice weekend .
You too . Oh , I forgot to tell you one thing . A girl called this afternoon . She said she was your ex-girlfriend . She wanted you to call her back .
Did she mention anything else ?
No , nothing else . See you Monday .
Are you watching another news report about the war ?
Yes . The two sides declared a short ceasefire but it broke down earlier today . Several military target were destroyed by bombing . Many civilians were among the dead and wounded .
How did this war start ?
Bout side claim a small area of territory . Both sides tried to build border fences and began attacking each other .
Politicians from both sides sound increasingly belligerent . Neither side wants to compromise .
Relief agencies report that many civilians are in desperate need of food and shelter . Several European countries have agreed to send aid , but are afraid that their planes will be shot down .
What do you think will happen ?
Both countries are very poor . Soon they will run out of money to finance the war . Then , perhaps , they will negotiate .
Hi , Deny . Are still working ?
Hi , Navy . Come in please . I'm just putting away on my books .
So , you are leaving , aren't you ?
yes , I'm going to take a holiday tomorrow .
How nice ! I can see you are busying packing . I'm sorry to interrupt you .
That's all right . I'm almost finished . Do you need my help ?
Yes , could you please go over this for me ? and see if there is any mistake in it ?
All right I'll read it soon .
Excuse me for taking your time .
My wife and I didn't used to spend this much money .
What's changed ?
My wife has been pregnant for 7 months .
I see . I guess diapers and baby food are expensive . Bringing up children is not easy .
My wife will be going back to work soon .
You should have more money then .
Who broke the glass , Peter ?
That cat .
I was not born yesterday . It must be either you or Adam .
Good evening ! This is Mr . Smith in room 609 .
Good evening , Mr . Smith , What can I do for you ?
I'm going to Shanghai early tomorrow morning . So I would like to request an early morning call .
Yes , Mr . Smith , when would you like us to call you tomorrow morning ?
I have to be at the conference room of the Garden Hotel in Shanghai by 10 o'clock . I think it will take me three hours to get there . It means that I'll have to be on the road before 7 o'clock at the latest .
That's right .
Well , in that case , I would like you to wake me up at 5:45 .
OK . Good night , Mr . Smith , Have a good sleep .
Let's catch the waiter's eyes . We want to have a table for 4 .
What about that one ?
Well , it's too close to the door . Is that table reserved ?
Hi Rose , what are you busy with right now ?
Hi Jack , I'm working on these documents . The manager wants them for half an hour .
Well , Rose ,
Is there something you need ?
Are your free this weekend ?
Yes , I have nothing to do .
Great , Is it convenient if i visit you this weekend ?
I beg your pardon ?
I'd like to call on you this weekend . I just want to a drop in for a chat .
Really ? well , ok , you're welcome .
Is 5 PM . a good time for you ?
Hmm , how about seven ? I can treat you to dinner .
Sure , that would be great . I'll bring the wine .
OK . Then I'll be expecting you .
Everyone wants to be financial lose kill . You must invest your savings if you planed to retire rich . I ' m thinking about buying stocks . It can be a good investment if I can manage well . What do you say ?
I partly agree with you . Buying stocks is not difficult , but making money consistently from buying stock is very difficult . Even professionals don ' t find it easy , so be careful . Anyway , people like us need help with investing . Why not do some online research ? There are data , reports and discussion forums to educate people on how to invest . In addition , you need to visit an established website that offers stock charts .
Wow , you sound very professional .
I am really exhausted , you know , I have been working without the weekend for two weeks . My boss always asks us to work overtime .
Does your boss pay you for the over-time work ?
No . But he provides free meals and sometimes gives us some small gifts . Many of us get very tired of this , and we'd rather have weekends than stay in the office .
He should know that this is against the Labor Law in our country . Legally , employees should get double pay if asked to do extra work during the weekend or on holidays .
We all know about that , but we have no choice . The chairman of the trade union says he is going to negotiate with the management .
I suggest that you go to the lawyers ' office to get some help .
Can I help you , madam ?
Yes , would you keep our bags until 6pm .
Are you all our guests ?
Yes we checked on just now .
Please fill in this form .
Is this all right .
So you're leaving this evening , we ' ll keep your bags until 6pm , here is you tag .
Sally , what do we have for dinner
What would you like to have ?
Well , I quit breakfast , so I had a rich brunch . I feel like having something mild for dinner
In that case , what about having some noodles ?
Noodles are fine . Or maybe I'll have some porridge .
Congratulations on the new house !
Thanks ! We love it .
Well , you guys worked hard for it . It's really beautiful .
Did you watch television last night , Charles ?
Yes , I did .
It was a good game , wasn't it ?
Oh , I didn't watch the football match . I wanted to but my wife preferred to see the old film .
What a pity . It was quite exciting . Both teams played very well .
How did it finish ?
It finished in a draw . What was the film like ?
It was quite good . But . I missed the beginning of it because I had to eat first .
Did your wife enjoy it ?
Excuse me , is this seat taken ?
No , please feel free .
Thanks a lot .
Do you work in Shanghai ?
Yes I do . How about you ?
No , I'm a tourist . This place is amazing ! It's much bigger than I imagined , and much more exciting ! There's so much to see here .
You can say that again ! It's much more modern than people imagine . Where are you from ?
Um , well let's see ... I'm from Kansas originally . A much quieter and more peaceful place than here , that's for sure !
Can you make the tea , Sam ?
Yes , of course I can , Penny . Is there any water in this kettle ?
Yes , there is .
Where ' s the tea ?
It ' s over there , behind the teapot . Can't you see it ?
I can see the teapot , but I can ' t see the tea .
There it is ! It ' s in front of you .
Ah yes , I can see it now . Where are the cups ?
There are some in the cupboard . Can you find them ?
Yes . Here they are .
Have you followed the value of dollar lately ?
How could I help but follow it ? The fluctuation of dollar is killing my company ! The exchange rates are eating into our profits , and we can't do anything about it .
It's really frustrating , isn't it ? I have the same problem . I would feel a lot better if the currency was a little more stable . With the way the dollar plummeting lately , my securities have gone up in smoke .
Every day I have less money ! I haven't spent anything , it is just melting away because of the shifts in exchange rate .
What we really should be making investment in is the Euro . I've followed the Euro's progress over the last quarter , I think it's about time to buy in .
What about the Yen ?
Good evening . Where have you come from ?
Bucharest , Romania .
May I have your passport and form I - 94 , please ?
Here you are .
What's the nature of your visit ? Business or pleasure ?
Pleasure . I'm visiting my relatives .
How long are you going to stay in the United States ?
Three weeks .
What is your occupation ?
I work as an accountant for a Romanian telecommunications company .
Do you have a return ticket ?
Yes , here it is .
That's fine . Thanks . Enjoy your trip .
I am Liu Yi , from China XYZ Company . I ' d like to see Mr . Thomas , please .
Do you have an appointment , Mr . Liu ?
No , I am afraid not . I just arrive in town today .
Mr . Thomas is quite busy , I ' m afraid he won ' t be able to see you today .
Would you please ask when he will be free ?
Tell me about yourself and your past experience .
For the past 3 years , I have been working in China East Airlines Corporation Limited . I'm very tolerant of people and have been told that this is one of my strengths . I feel I have a lot to offer as a team member .
Why are you interested in this occupation ?
It's always been my dream to be a stewardess . And I like travelling to different places .
What do you think is the chief characteristic for a stewardess ?
Well , a stewardess should be friendly , courteous , patient and treat passengers kindly and politely .
Do you get angry easily ?
No , I know how to control my temper .
If a passenger had a accident , what would you do ?
I would give him or her basic first aid and ask my partner to call for assistance at the same time .
If you are hired , when can you start work ?
I can begin to work right away because I am out of work now .
What are your salary expectations ?
I'm very grateful for what you have done to my son , doctor .
That's all tight , Mr . Smith . That ' s my job . I'm very glad he recovered so soon .
I know he has brought great trouble to you . A million thanks .
No trouble at all . He's very cute and brave . By the way , do remember to keep him away from sea food for at least two weeks .
Uncle Ben , how did the Forbidden City get this name ?
Well , in the feudal society , emperors had supreme power , so his residence was certainly a forbidden palace .
His residence ? You mean the whole palace ?
Yes . The Forbidden City is divided into two parts . The southern section , or the Outer Court was for the emperor to exercise his power over the nation , and the northern part , or the Inner Court was for his royal family .
Oh , unbelievable . This was too luxurious .
Even the whole country belonged to him . That's why he is called the emperor .
OK , then . I love these unique structured towers with the delicate carvings on them . It's really artistic .
Yeah , the buildings and designs of the Forbidden City are the peak of Chinese traditional architecture , not only scientific but also suitable for living .
I agree . It's definitely a product of wisdom . Well , why were those small animal sculptures placed on the tops of the buildings ?
Some of them are mascots and some are symbols of power .
Why are there so many yellow things ? Is yellow the lucky color in China ?
Oh , no . In fact , yellow is the symbol of the royal family .
Just like the pattern dragon , right ?
Exactly . Here is the Nine-dragon Screen .
Oh , it's really fabulous . I wanna take a picture here .
It's a beautiful day ! Let's play on those rides in the park .
Sounds like a good idea . I love to play on the jungle gym .
Me too . I love to play on the swing as well . Swing is my favorite .
That's great . Then we won't fight over taking the same ride .
Look at the flowers over there . What are they ?
They are morning glories . They are cute , aren't they ?
They are . We can find many different kinds of flowers and insects in the park .
I think so . Last time I saw dandelions and ladybugs near the pond .
If you come to the park in the morning , you can find squirrels running on the lawn .
It's really healthy to do some exercise there . The air is fresher and it's romantic to watch the sunset with your lover .
Oh , my goodness . The traffic is crawling .
I think there is an accident ahead .
We are now running late .
I know . Why don't we take a different route ?
Let me check and look at the map . Yes , there is an exit three quarters of a mile ahead . We ' ll exit Market Street , head west , then get on the Pennsylvania Freeway .
John has some trouble in his life .
I hear that his father died .
Yeah . He ' s been having an easy time since he was a boy , and now he doesn ' t know how to face the music .
What a terrible house !
I'm sick of it , too .
The door bell doesn't work , the sink is leaking
There's no hot water , and the building is falling apart !
I've got a telegraphic order . Will you cash it ?
Have you got any identification ( ID ) with you ?
Yes . Here is my passport .
What currency will you have ?
US dollars , please .
All right , and how will you have it ?
500 in twenty dollar bills and the rest in a dollar bills .
Here you are .
Excuse me , Ms . Montgomery ?
I ' m sorry , Jeff . Please don ' t interrupt me right now . I ' m in the middle of a conversation .
Oh , I ' m sorry , Ms . Montgomery . I ' ll come back later .
I'm Mary Kell . May I ask your name ?
My name is Zhuang Lingy . How are you , Miss Kelly ?
I'm glad to meet you , Mr . Zhuang . Sit down , please .
Thank you . Miss Kelly .
What are your qualifications for being a clerk typist ?
I can type 120 words a minute and I take shorthand at 80 words a minute .
Would you be willing to take a typing and shorthand test ?
Yes , I would . ( After testing )
Your typing and stenography are pretty good . Would you be interested in applying for the job ?
Yes , I'd like to give it a try .
We're having a tailgate party I before the game . Would you like to join us ?
Okay . But what is a tailgate party ?
Someone brings a truck to the game and we have a barbecue right there in the parking lot out of the back of the truck !
How fun ! Can I bring something ?
Don't worry about it ! Just come at five .
I make a mean potato salad !
Well , if you insist , you are welcome to bring a potato salad !
I like double-breasted garment with no belt . Could you show me some ?
Here you are . Which size do you wear ?
Medium . May I try it on ?
How much will it be all together ?
$ 200 , please .
Can I pay by check ?
I'm afraid you can't , ma'am . We accept only traveler's checks and credit cards .
OK . How about this card then ?
Excuse me , I ' d like to apply for a library card .
Certainly . Here ' s an application form . Do you have proof of residence ?
What sort of proof do you need ?
A driver ' s license or something showing that you live in this city .
I ' m a student from out of state , so I don ' t have a local driver ' s license .
Do you have a current electricity or gas bill in your name ?
The phone bill ' s in my name .
That ' ll do . Bring the most recent one in with your completed application , and we ' ll issue you a temporary library card right away .
How long will it take to get the regular one ?
It ' ll be mailed to you within two weeks , but you can borrow books on the temporary card .
Oh , God . It ' s late . I ' m afraid I have to leave .
But you just got here . Can ' t you stay a little longer and have some tea ?
That ' s very kind of you . But if I don ' t go now I ' ll miss the last bus .
That ' s too bad .
Thank you for your hospitality .
Thanks for coming .
How about next time we meet at my place ? And I ' ll treat you to Chinese food . I know how much you like it . We can order in and watch video too . Anything you like , I promise .
Great idea . I ' m looking forward to it . See you then .
Well . I really do have to go .
Good night then .
The air conditioning is not working ! We need to call a handyman before we start to fry in here !
Dan is on top of that . I think they are also getting the handyman to fix the bathroom toilet that keeps clogging up .
That would be convenient . They might as well ask him to fix the electrical wiring . The circuit breakers keep going out all the time . It ' s really annoying !
Yeah you are right . This office is falling apart ! Frank told me the other day that the gutters outside were clogged and that ' s why the parking lot was flooded .
Can I order take-out here ?
We only have spring rolls today for take-out .
Then could I have four orders , please ?
Of course , ma'am .

I'll check it for you . I've found it . Is this yours ?
Yes , it is the right one
Will you show me your key card , please ?
Here it is .
How's your job search going ?
I only started looking for a job a few days ago .
have you finished compiling your resume ?
yes , I was precise with every word in my resume ?
that's good . Don't forget to design the format . An attractive format is as important as the content .
absolutely , I've highlighted all my strengths and the resume is clear and easy to read .
good . How about your cover letter ?
a cover letter ? I've never thought about that . Won't a CV do for my job application ?
no , a CV is not enough . You should also attach it with a cover letter . Don't overlook it . You're faced with fierce competition in the job market . If your cover letter cannot stand out in the pile of
sounds reasonable . Even if I'm the right one for the job , many people are applying for the same vacancy at the same time , so I should try my best to catch the Human Resources manager's attention .
yes , you're right . All your preparation efforts are to help you land a job interview .
John , could you come to my office ? I need to talk to you .
Sure . I'll be there as soon as I finish this document .
No . Come here right now .
OK .
What's the matter ?
I'm sorry to say that we have to let you go , John .
Why ? I work very hard .
Well , you're working very hard but not efficiently . And you don't work well with other employees .
Well , some of those other guys are not the same kind I'd like to communicate with , but if that's important to you . I'll try to get along with them .
I'm afraid it's too late . We are downsizing our workforce and you'll have to go .
It's unfair .
We can give you the option of residing rather than being fired , because it will look better on your resume when you apply for another job if you resign .
OK . I need to think about that for a while .
Hi , Lilly , it ' s so nice to see you again .
Hum , me too . This winter holiday was especially long . What have you done ?
Nothing special . I had a get-together with some schoolmates at the high school , visited the Internet and read a couple of books which I had been longing for . How about yours ?
Have you any evening bus tour ?
Yes , we have . The city is famous for its beautiful evening scenery .
I have heard of that before . When shall we start ?
Excuse me . Is anyone sitting here ?
No , nobody .
You don ' t mind if I smoke , do you ?
Well , to be frank , yes , I do .
Oh , I ' m sorry . But this isn ' t a no-smoker , is it ? I mean would you mind if I smoke here ?
Actually it is . Perhaps you haven ' t noticed the sign .
Sign ? What ' s sign ?
There , on the window .
Oh , sorry . I didn ' t notice it . Sorry .
How do I order the office supplies that I need ?
Fill out this form with whatever you need . What do you need the most ?
I need many things .
I can get a few of them right away , but might have to order some .
I can wait a few days for these items .
Make sure that you have money allocated for these supplies . How much do you have for office supplies ?
I don't think we have very much money for supplies , but we have a little .
Would you like them delivered to you or can you come get them here ?
I am not sure yet .
When you finish completing the request form , we will order and let you know when the supplies are here . Have a great day !
Good morning , Miss Li .
Morning , Mike .
I ' m sorry that I was absent yesterday .
I ' Ve already got your certificate for sick-leave . How do you feel today ?
I feel much better now .
Have you received the reading material handed out yesterday ?
I ' Ve already got it . Thanks .
I will explain it in detail in the next class . Could you preview it ?
What is the scale of the company ?
It is a large-scale business , which has more than two thousand staff .
How many subsidiaries do you have ?
Look at this , A Brief Introduction of Hollywood .
Hackneyed theme !
What ? How much do you know Hollywood ?
Nearly everything .
You are full of boasts . I can examine you by question and answer . What is Hollywood ? Where is it ? What is the function of it ?
Too easy questions . Listen carefully . Hollywood is the movie capital of the world . It is located in southern California . Many films have been made there , and the kinds have changed often .
Not bad . What kind of film did it produce from the ready to mid 1930 ' s
Gangster movies . Movie-goers at that time could get a look at the people involved in crime and their violent activities by watching it .
Mm . What came after that ?
After all that violence , people needed to laugh , so from the mid-to-late l940 ' s , many detective movies about policemen who solved crimes were made . Then came musicals .
Pretty good . Please continue .
Right . By the mid - 50 ' s , this light-hearted genre was competing with films about more serious subjects . There was one kind that could be found throughout all of these years , and that was the , mm , the . . .
The western films about America's cowboys , Indians and early settlers .
Come on .
Since the early 1960 ' s , there are horror movies about people who encounter frightening , unnatural situations , and serious films such as documentarist about events that actually happened , and science fiction movies about possible friture and future worlds . Some people have also enjoyed watching psycho-dramas about the everyday problems that people have .
Any more ?
Our company's wei-ya is tomorrow night ! It's your first Chinese New Year in Taiwan--you must be excited !
Excited ? What's there to be excited about ? It's just another company dinner , right ?
You have no idea ! There's a banquet with prizes , performances ... you name it !
Really ? What kind of prizes ?
Well , I heard that last year Vivian from accounting won a new car !
A new car ! You're kidding !
No , really ! And she told me the secret to winning , wear red underwear !
Wear red underwear ? ! Does that really work ? Are you going to try it ?
Of course ! I'm not only going to wear red underwear , but I'm going to wear red socks and a red shirt , too !
What do you think of your teacher ?
He's very strict with us .
And I hear he gives very good lectures .
Tomorrow I'll take you to some places that I'm sure you will have interest in .
Where else haven't I been to yet ?
Not many but these ones . They are the Folk Antique Handicrafts and Collectibles Exhibition Halls !
Sounds great ! How many kinds of folk collections they have ?
Well , there're actually over 200 kinds of folk collections in this city , that's half the collections of antique objects in China . There's one exhibition hall for multiple collection , and several individual display rooms for private collections .
Private collectors ! Oh , they must have excellent collections . I'll go and see each of them . What kinds of collections can I see ? Come on , David , don't keep me in suspense !
No hurry ! I'll tell you now . The collections include ancient cases and caskets , tea sets , abacuses , precious sea shells and conches , jars and water abacuses for study use , drama costumes , agates , ancient coins , butterflies , fans , mini musical instruments , root-carving , rare stones and rocks , model ships , model cars .
Enough , David ! I can't wait anymore . Let's go right now !
Okey , Okey . We'll start from the Folk Collection Exhibition House , a multi-folk collection exhibition hall , where the best of local antique objects are on constant display . The hall itself used to be the site of a local club in the late King Dynasty , a well preserved piece of antique architecture itself . Academic research seminars and exchanges between domestic and international experts are often organized there .
Very interesting . That's really a place I must go and see . And then ?
If you have interest in butterflies , you must go to the Butterfly Exhibition . Mr . Chen , owner of the private museum , has a large collection of specimen of over 1 000 species of butterflies from more than 20 countries for public display . Quite a lot of them are state-level treasures .
Can you help me for a minute ?
Sure , what I can do for you ?
I'm try to write a letter to one of our clients , But I just don't know exactly what to say , I don't even know how to get started , I know I should write dear Mr . Mrs . or Ms . , but the problem is I don't know the name of contact person .
You can just put Dear Sir or Madam , officialese not personal , you can write to whom may concerned .
OK , So I first thanks them for their business , I can say something like we are very grateful for your continue support , How is that ?
Good ! But also , write off the bed you want to tell them the reason of your writing , give them more reference .
Like Regarding our new product line , we would like to announce a special price discount
Right , do you need them to respond ?
Yes , the letter would have a survey inside , and they should complete it and return to our office . How should I write that ?
Did you get your bus pass ?
I haven't gone to get it yet .
Why haven't you got it ?
I don't know where to go to get one .
I know where to get them from .
Where do I get it ?
They sell them at the business office on campus .
I had no idea .
I'm sure you didn't .
Thank you .
Don't mention it .
What do you want , Essie ?
A cup of coffee and an apple pie . How about you ?
I don't want coffee . I'd like some orange juice .
Why don't you drink coffee ?
I don't like coffee in this cafe .
It does taste weird .
Don't open any of my forwards ! I got a virus !
Don't tell me you got the dreaded Bush virus . I've heard that that bug is threatening to infect the world .
Yes , that's exactly the bug I got . Though , I do kind of like the pictures .
Those clothes do suit him better .
Wait a second-are these pictures copyrighted ?
All right then , Ms . Montgomery . I ' ll get those plans over to your office by Thursday afternoon .
Great . That will give me time to talk with my staff before I make final decision .
That ' s what I was thinking . I ' ll have them there by Thursday .
Bell Computers Limited , can I help you ?

Yes , 123 456 789 , Mary from Happy Travel . Have you got that ?
Let me read that back to you , 123 456 789 , Mary from Happy Travel . I'll ask him to get back you as soon as he can .
Great . Thanks .
Anything else ?
No , that's it . Thanks . Bye .
Good morning , I want to send this parcel to Taiwan .
Airmail or surface mail ?
How long would surface mail take , compared with airmail ?
Oh , anything up to 3 or 4 months for surface mail . It depends on the sailing of the ships . Airmail would only take 1 to 2 weeks .
How much would this parcel cost me by airmail ?
Just let me weigh it for you . That's 2 lb . and 6 oz . That's be £ 10 .
Mary , why are you so tired ?
I go to the personnel market every day , and put a lot of energy into it .
Why don't you think about applying for a job on the Internet ?
On the Internet ? I have never tried that way .
Well , it's very convenient and very popular now .
So how to apply for a job on the Internet ?
Just get online and send your application through email to the employer .
But how can I know which employer is hiring ?
You could place your job hunting information on the Job Wanted channel on a recruitment website .
Will the employers see my information ?
Yes . If they think you are a fit , maybe they will contact you .
Is it safe to job hunt on the Internet ?
If you log in some formal websites , it must be very safe .
Hello , Jill .
Tom , You're back , come in please . How are you ?
Fine , only a little tired .
You'll recover after a good night's sleep .
Thank you very much for looking after my house in my absence .
That's all right . Would you have a cup of coffee ?
Yes , Please . It ' s very kind of you .
Don't mention it .
The rooms are very tidy and the flowers grew very well . You are very helpful . I want to thank you for everything you've done for me .
It's my pleasure .
I bought you some books on literature , I don't know if you would like them .
Thank you . Thank you for the trouble you've taken .
Wow ! That's a fantastic movie !
Yes . I love it , too .
Who was the director ?
Is English acceptable for you ?
Yes .
What's your name ?
Jenny Madison .
What ' s your nationality ?
Nigerian .
What is your date of birth ?
15th of April , 1969 .
And your occupation ?
I am a painter .
What's your passport No . ?
7834623464 3367 .
Where do you live in China ?
In the Golden Mountain Hotel in Beijing .
You are suspected of smuggling . Do you understand your rights ?
Yes .
George , did you remember to buy me the book ?
Sorry , darling , I forgot .
When will you buy it then ?
Good morning , Angela , how have you been lately ?
Morning , Michael . I ' Ve been very busy lately . One of our other vendors is going out of business and I ' Ve been searching for a suitable replacement .
Well , rest assured that you can count on us to be here for the long run , please sit down . Coffee ?
No , thanks . I ' Ve been trying to cut down on the caffeine .
Haha , I could never do that . I ' d be a zombie if I didn ' t have my morning coffee fix . Let ' s get down to business then .
Yes . I ' Ve come to talk with you about ordering the eight megapixel cameras for our new methone . The demand for phone cameras is growing , and Pear has been falling behind in the market .
That ' s great ! I ' m glad to hear that Pear has finally jumped on the bandwagon . Right now our contract is for the five megapixel cameras . Is Pear still interested in having those ?
No , we ' re changing all the cameras to eight megapixels . We were hoping that by making your company our sole supplier for cameras we could negotiate a better deal .
Excuse me , ma'am ?
Yes . What can I do for you ?
I'm new here and I can ' t seem to find the lunch room .
The trouble is not that . It is that he may suddenly remember something I promised him a couple of weeks ago , out of a clear blue sky . Then he complains that I have gone back on my words .
Does he do that with his Dad ? I mean , does he complain things to his father ?
He never does , and in fact , he seldom communicates with him .
But didn ' t you say that his Dad takes him under his wings ?
Do you see that small white car over there ? It ' s Tom ' s new car .
Oh , my God . It ' s beautiful . But it looks expensive .
It is very expensive . Tom ' s father paid for it .
I want to have a car like that . But I am not rich . And I don ' t have a rich daddy .
I've been told that you are a very successful businessman abroad . I wonder how you managed to achieve such success ?
Oh , through a lot of hard work , of course .
I suppose that in a foreign country it was difficult at first , wasn't it ?
Surely it was , especially when you only knew few people and little English .
You mean you didn ' t know much English then ?
Right . I only knew a few English sentences .
That's incredible . Could you tell me what you did to make a start ?
First , I worked as a servant .
Really ? I wish you could tell me more about your experience .
When do you celebrate Thanksgiving ?
On the fourth Thursday of November .
What do you eat on that day ?
People cook turkeys for Thanksgiving dinner .
Anything else ?
Besides the turkeys , we'll also have other delicious food . Such as pumpkin pies , puddings , mashed potatoes , bread , a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables .
Hello , Sir . Are you still there ?
Yes , I'm here . What details do you need from me ?
Did you check with reception at your hotel ?
Yes , I did . But nobody has handed it in as yet .
OK , that's fine , Sir . We just need to ask you some questions for security purposes .
Please , go right ahead .
Could I have your name , please ? And do you know your card number ?
I'm Mike Kowalski and my card number is 5211678 44 , but there are some other numbers at the beginning . I'm not sure what they are .
That should be fine , Mr Kowalski . And your PIN number ?
It's 671029 , my birthday . Silly to choose such a simple one , I suppose !
How do you like Korea ?
I like it . It's a beautiful country .
What part of the visit excited you most ?
The best island of Korea-Jizhou island .
Why ?
Attractive scenery , pleasant climate , these make it charming .
Yes , I think so . But there is also something terrible .
What do you mean ?
Sometimes the traffic is too busy .
Why didn't you sign the contract ?
I don't think the lecture is very interesting .
The lecturer is dull , too .
I feel he's like a talking machine .
So click here , then up to the top .
Er ... Hum ... Got it .
Then open that window . Yeah , that one .
Right !
And that's it . You're done .
You ' re new here , right ?
Yes , I am .
Will this be your first year ?
No , I transferred here .
What school did you come from ?
I transferred from PCC .
Why ' d you transfer here ?
I wanted to attend this school originally , but my grades out of high school weren ' t good enough .
Is PCC a good school ?
PCC is great !
I hope you enjoy it here .
How do you like your job here , Linda ?
It's interesting , I like being an editor .
Why ?
I like talking to writers , I get to meet a lot of interesting people .
I'm happy to hear that , but publishing is more than just talking to writers . it involves a lot of work , patience and responsibility . Most of the work is boring .
I don't feel bored at all . I'm getting along with my colleagues . I will enjoy working with them . People are great in this industry .
Do you have any complaints ?
No , I have no complaints . I hear there are many opportunities to move up in this company . is that true ?
Yes , you have many opportunities to grow in this company as long as you do well .
Excuse me .
Yes ?
Can you tell me the way to the Peak Tram , please ?
Certainly . Go along Queen's Road ...
Along Queen's Road ...
Yes , and turn right at the Hilton Hotel .
Right at the Hilton .
Then go up Garden Road , past the Cathedral .
The Cathedral ?
Yes . Then cross the road at the next traffic lights . The Peak Tram is straight ahead . You can't miss it .
That's very kind of you . Thank you . Er ... have you got a pencil ?
Yes . Why ?
Excuse me , do you know where the visa office is ?
Yes , I do . I ' ll walk you there .
Thanks .
Are you applying to study or work abroad ?
I want to study abroad .
What do you want to study ?
I hope to study English Literature .
Have you got your visa yet ?
Not yet . I have an interview with a visa official today .
I see . Is it your first interview ?
How can I be sure your products are of superior quality , as you promised ?
One of the reasons for our good quality products is because of our quality inspection system , which is the best of its kind .
But a quality inspection system does not mean that each unit will always be up to the standard .
We have trained analyzers to do quality analysis at the end of each part when we make the product . This means that no mistakes are made .
Your salesman also told me that each worker is trained to do quality analysis . Can you tell me a little about that ?
I have a question about my payment and need someone to help me .
Yes , I would be happy to answer a question about payment . What do you need help with ?
I can ' t figure out why my paycheck this week is smaller than last week ' s .
Did you generate any income during that time period ?
I made a little bit of money , but not much .
Did that income show up on your last Continued Claim Form ?
I claimed the work I did on the last Continued Claim Form .
When you are able to find work and get paid , we always take away part of your check .
That being the case , I don ' t think that I am going to show the income next time .
Ouch ! I just bit my tongue .
Oh , that hurts .
One of my students told me she was very depressed today .
Why ?
Her father is dying .
Oh , that ' s very sad .
Yeah , she ' s broken up about it , poor kid .
What did you do ?
I talked to her for a while , but she ' s really depressed . So , I made an appointment with the school counselor for her .
That ' s a good idea . The counselor is a psychologist . He ' s better trained to handle these sorts of things .
Yeah , that ' s what I told her . I ' m glad she ' s reaching out for help , instead of trying to deal with this on her own .
I ' m glad to have had the opportunity to meet you here .
I trust you ' re keeping well ?
I ' m doing great , thank you .
OK , Devon , I've been putting on a few pounds and you're quite a lean fit guy .
Well , thank you .
What do you recommend ? What can I do to lose weight ?
Well , I exercise a lot . I go running at least three times a week . But more than that I enjoy playing sports and so different sports use different muscles and all of it helps to lose that weight that you might have gained .
Yeah , well , actually , one of the problems is that I actually exercise a lot .
Do ya ?
Yeah , so maybe it's my diet .
It could be and so in that case you might want to eat something perhaps more nutritious or maybe even less of what you do eat . Maybe , I eat three meals a day and I try not to snack in between . No potato chips . No popcorn . No candy bars .
Did you see the robbery ?
I sure did .
Did you see everything ?
I was in the bank at the time .
What exactly did you see ?
I saw the guy come in with a gun .
Did you get a good look at his face ?
He was wearing a mask .
Was anyone else with him ?
He came in alone .
Could you come to the station for more questioning ?
You are from the travel agency , aren't you ?
Yes , are you Mr James ?
Yes , I am . Are you Miss Li from the travel agency ?
That's right .
Do you mind telling me your name ?
Of course not . My name is Li Ping . Is this all your baggage ?
Yes , it is . I usually travel light .
Welcome to Hong Kong . I'll go and get the car . Could you please wait a few minutes ?
How's your new car ?
Perfect . Couldn ' t be better !
You made a good choice , then ?
It's just what I wanted .
No regrets ?
I'm really pleased with it . Thanks .
I'm glad you're so happy .
I would like to buy a ticket to New York please .
When do you plan to travel ?
I ' d like to pack my bags and leave tonight .
Are you aware that without two weeks advance notice prices will be very high ?
Yes I know , but I just got the chance to leave and so I am going to take it no matter what .
I understand . So that ' s one ticket to New York , and you ' ll be departing tonight . Will that be one-way or round trip ?
I wish I could stay there , but unfortunately it will have to be a round trip ticket .
When would you like to return ?
My return date will be the 14th .
OK . I have several seats available . Would you like a window seat or an aisle seat ?
Anything but a center seat is fine with me . The middle seat drives me crazy !
OK Mr . Lee . I have you booked on flight 513 leaving on the 5th at 11:00 pm and arriving in New York on the 6th at 6
Will there be any layovers ?
No , all flights are direct .
Perfect ! I ' m afraid to ask , but how much is it ?
Nowadays , ships and boats are no longer so important in transportation as they used to be .
True . With the extension of railways and highways , and the improvement of safety and capacity of airplanes , ships and boats have been giving place to trains , planes and automobiles .
I read in the newspapers that the passenger liners from Shanghai to Ningpo and Dalian have been out of business ; and the liners up and down the Yangtze River have been reduced by 70 % .
The pace of life of people is now getting faster and faster , so the speed of ships and boats seems to be so slow . I think it may be the reason why people don't like to travel by boat .
hello ?
good morning , Nathaniel . This is Leah calling from the International Student Office .
good morning .
the reason I'm calling is because Ms . Collins will not be able to call you back until next week .
oh . I had hoped she would have called me back yesterday .
she's terribly sorry about that . She had to leave the office suddenly and won't be able to return until next week . She hopes you understand .
is there someone else I can talk to ?
she asked me to call you to book an appointment with someone else today . When are you free today ?
any time after 2 pm today would be good for me .
Mr . Liu is available at 2:15 today . Will that work for you ?
I'd prefer to speak with Ms . Fonda .
I'm afraid she isn't available this afternoon . She has an opening at 11:30 this morning . Will that work for you ?
that will be fine .
How's your new car ?
Perfect . Couldn't be better !
You made a good choice , then ?
It's just what I wanted .
No regrets ?
I'm really pleased with it . Thanks .
I'm glad you're so happy .
Hi , Betty ! Where's your boyfriend ?
Don't do that . You are asking for trouble .
You didn't tell me she was married !
I tried . You were preoccupied .
I got carried away . I made such a fool of myself . They were both laughing at me !
You got drunk , and you were hilarious . Lighten up .
That guy was definitely a Don .
So now you can say you had a mafia experience . Ha-ha .
Yeah . If I leave Little Italy alive ...
Have you heard about the new iPhone ?
yes , I heard it's supposed to come out in June . Are you thinking about getting one ?
I'd like to . It's a cell phone , camera , PAD and mp3 player all in one .
if I had enough money , I'd buy one , but I don't even have enough to buy one of their shuffle spods .
how big is a shuffle iPod ?
the first generation iPod shuffle is about the size of a park of gum and the second generation iPod shuffle is about half the size of the first .
how many gigs of music can it hold ?
I think it's either one or two gigs . I can't remember .
how much do they cost ?
not much at all . I think it's about 100 dollars .
you're right , that's not bad at all .
do you have an iPod ?
I got one for my birthday when they first came out , but after the battery died out , I never brought another one .
why didn't you just buy another battery for it so you could use it ?
May I help you , ma'ma ?
Please , where do I catch the plane for New York ?
First you must check in at Counter No . 4 .
That one there ?
That's right . Then you will follow the signs to Gate 85 .
Do you have girlfriend ?
Yes , why ?
Well , I came to know a girl three weeks ago . We have so much in common .
So ?
So I think I may fall in love with her .
That sounds great . But how do you know that's a crush or a real love ?
Then what's the difference between having a crush and falling in real love ?
That's a big question . Well , if you're in love , maybe you will take every opportunity to talk to her or telephone her for no reason at all .
That's what I do .
And you think about her all the time ?
Yes .
And maybe you suddenly have new interests . I mean you suddenly begin to do things you used to avoid . For instance , you used to sleep in every morning , but because she jogs every morning then you begin to like jogging .
That's it . She likes dogs so much now , and I begin to love dogs .
Oh , congratulations . Sounds like you've found your soul mate .
Thanks , but I know falling in love is one thing while staying in love is another .
Yes , that's right . If you find this person becomes more and more important to you and you can totally trust her , then you can stay in love .
Can you look after my son for me tonight ?
How are you getting along with your wife now ?
What can you expect ? Not that good .
What are you going to do then ?
Just let it go .
How are your work now ?
Who ' s this ? your girl-friend ?
No , it ' s my sister .
How old is she ?
She ' s 18 .
She is tall ?
Yes , she is .
And she is thin , isn ' t she ?
Who's that over here ?
That's the new teacher .
What do you think of the teacher ?
She's very nice .
What does she teach ?
English , of course .
Is she your teacher ?
Yes . She teaches our class three times a week .
Can she speak Chinese to her students ?
Not very much .
I have a sweet tooth . I can not help but think about having something sweet between meals .
A new candy shop just opened around the corner last week . They have a variety of candies and it is always full of people .
That sounds really attractive . Let's go to that candy shop now .
Are you serious ? It is always crowded with many people .
why not ? I would like to buy some candies . Since there are so many people , I think they must have delicious candy .
Look at the candy bar over there . It is so colorful and tasty .
They have lollypops , chocolate drops , fruit candy , mints , pearbrittles and toffee . They are in different colors and flavors .
I want to get a big bag and buy a little of everything .
Me too . I finally understand why a small shop like this can always befilmed with dozens of people .
To be honest , I care only about whether I can have some delicious candy eat . I couldn't care less about whether the shop is popular or not .
You are a candy terminator . Be careful or you'll get a lot of cavities .
That is true . Speaking of cavities , I am starting to feel something is wrong with my teeth now . Let's get more strawberry chocolate drops before we go home .
What sort of things do you grow in your garden ?
I grow a variety of things , so that something is in bloom all year round .
When is your garden at its best ?
Hi , John ! I haven ' t seen you for ages .
Hi ! Yes , it ' s been a long time . I ' m really glad to see you .
I ' m glad to see you , too . How ' Ve you been ?
Just fine . How is everything with you ?
Not bad . I finally bought a house . It ' s an old one , but built really solid . It is close to here . Do you want to come over for lunch ?
I ' d like that , but I ' m flying home this afternoon , and I told my parents I ' d meet them at the airport for lunch .
OK , next time you ' re here .
That ' s a deal .
I heard that you moved to Florida .
Yes , I ' m in Titusville . The space shuttle is launched from near there . I ' Ve seen a lot of space shuttle launches .
Tell me more .
The shuttle launches are beautiful . I saw one that took off at midnight . The whole sky got bright .
Sounds great !
I ' m pretty happy living there .
I want to see Disney World , Sea World , Universal Studios , and Weeki-Watchee Springs .
I ' Ve been to all of them .
I ' m jealous . I ' Ve never been to Florida .
The Sunshine State certainly is worth visiting . Come down for a vacation sometime . I ' ll take you to Disney World .
That sounds great ! I ' ll take you up on that invitation .
I hope you do . And keep in touch , OK ?
I sure will .
Here ' s my business card . Send me an email once in a while .
Count on it . And here ' s my card . Don ' t hesitate to call me anytime .
Thank you . I ' d better get going . I don ' t want to be late for lunch . Mom would worry .
Well , I ' m really glad we bumped into each other . Have a good trip .
Take good care of yourself , Mary .
I will . Good-bye .
How come you're still up ? Shouldn't you be asleep by now ?
I've been having a hard time sleeping lately .
As far as I know , insomnia is usually caused by stress . Are you stressed at all ?
Well , I'm really worried about my grades . I didn't think this course would be so stressful .
You're a good student . I'm sure you can do well . What you need to do is to relax .
You're probably right . I just wish it were that simple . How can I stop feeling so anxious all the time ?
Taking a yoga class or learning some relaxation techniques can help you cope with your stress .
I don't really have time to learn anything new . I need to spend my time studying !
You need to take some breaks throughout the day . Studying all day isn ' t very usually effective .
You ' re right . I usually end up staring at my computer or checking my email instead of doing my work for class .
Besides , it ' s not difficult to learn yoga . In fact , I can teach you a move that ' s supposed to help you fall asleep ! You just have to sit down like this , bend over and breath in deeply .
That ' s fantastic . I ' m going to go try that out in my room now . good night !
Ben , what are you doing ?
Well , I would say that I ' m just drifting - - - here , in the pool .
Why ?
Well , it ' s very comfortable just to drift here .
Have you thought about graduate school ?
No .
Would you mind telling me then -- what were those four years of college for ? What was the point of all that hard work ?
You got me .
Can I help you ?
I need some stamps .
What kind of stamps do you want ?
How much do I need for this letter ?
I must weigh it .
How much ? Is it overweight ?
It is 5 grams overweight . Do you want to send it as an ordinary or registered letter ?
How much is it , then ?
Registration plus overweight , 7 yuan in all .
Have you heard about Alice and David ?
No , have they had another fight ?
No , they've got engaged .
You must be joking . Those two ?
Well , my dear , I didn't believe it either . But I got it straight from the horse's mouth . David called me this morning .
So when did this all happen ?
Last weekend , while they were on their ski trip .
Well , I believe it now , and when are they are getting married ?
Next June .
Mrs . Montgomery ? I ' Ve been trying to figure out when we should have the New Year ' s party . Could you take a book at these dates ?
Sure . The twenty-ninth is out . I ' ll be out of the office all day at a seminar . Either the twenty-eighth or the thirtieth is fine .
Well , why don ' t we make it the thirtieth ? We can set it up from three to five . That way , everybody can just go home afterwards .
Have you noticed the Mexican restaurant on the other side of this street ?
You mean the one with the yellow bricks ? But last time I saw it , it wasn ' t really in business yet . I saw some people inside furnishing the rooms . Is it open now ?
Yes , someone give me a pamphlet introducing the restaurant and its business hours when I passed by this morning . So , let ' s have a try . My treat .
Great , I like the idea of trying some new food .
Good for you . Today we have more chances to try some new food because there are now many new form restaurants in our city coming from places all over the world .
how's it going ?
I'm in a really good mood , actually . How about you ?
to be honest , I'm a bit fed up .
what's wrong ?
well , my boyfriend was supposed to call me last night , but he never did .
that's too bad . I'm sure there's a logical explanation for it . Don't be too upset about it .
the thing is , this isn't the first time he's promised to do something and then didn't .
I see how that can get a bit annoying .
a bit ? I'm extremely annoyed that he didn't phone me when he promised me that he would ! He's such a liar .
so what are you going to do about it ?
I don't know . I've got mixed feelings about it . On the one hand , I really want to end it with him , but on the other hand , I don't want to be without him .
what do you think would make you happier ?
in the long run , I think breaking up with him would make me much happier , but I know that I'll be depressed about it for a few weeks first .
relationships can be confusing sometimes .
what would you do if you were me ?
IBA Bank , Business Banking Department . Ling Ming speaking . How may I help you ?
Ms Ling ! It's Mr Gwent , from Montgomery Computers .
Hello , Mr Gwent . What can I do for you today ?
Some money has been sent from our Head Office in Berlin . Could you check whether you have received the remittance yet ?
Of course . Do you know which bank it was sent through and the amount and currency ?
Deutsche Bank . It was 25,000 US dollars .
What can I do for you , sir ?
I'd like to choose one game for myself and one for my younger sister .
What kind of games do you like ?
Big games of course .
I see , but games are played in different ways . I'm wondering what type of games do you like to play ?
Type ? I don't know , what do you have ?
Basically , there are 7 types of games
Well , I am a beginner . I ...
Don't worry . Most male customers choose first person shooting , real time strategy , action or sports , while female customers prefer simulating , action or role playing . Shooting , action and sports games require flexible movements and real time strategy usually needs overall consideration .
I like first person shooting and action more than other types of games .
If so , counter Strike and Might & Magic are good alternatives . Counter Strike is one of the hottest shooting games and Might & Magic series are popular among girls because the game has attractive plot and interesting scenes .
Oh , thanks a lot . Then , I will take the two .
Do you want the latest editions ? If your computer runs fast , I think the latest editions are better because although old editions are cheaper , they are less exciting and attractive .
I'm so excited ! We have two weeks off ! What are you going to do ?
I'm not sure . I guess I'll just stay at home . Maybe I'll catch up on my reading . What about you ? Any plans ?
Well , my parents have rented a condominium in Florida . I'm going to take long walks along the beach every day and do lots of swimming .
Sounds great !
Say , why don't you come with us ? We have plenty of room .
Come in , come in !
Hi , Gary , what happened ? I was waiting for you at the theater . Why didn ' t you meet me there ?
I thought we were supposed to meet HERE .
Don ' t you know our movie starts at seven ? And we were going to meet at the theater at five to seven . Then it doesn ' t make sense to meet at the apartment .
I ' m sorry . We must have misunderstood each other .
Why don ' t you try to be clearer about your intentions ?
You ' re right . I am sorry . Let ' s go and watch the movie .
Good morning , miss .
Good morning , I'd like a haircut .
How would you like it ?
Are you going to leave school at the end of the term ?
Yes , I am .
What are you going to do ?
I'm going to be a clerk .
What does a clerk do ?
He works in an office . He writes letters and reports , and he types .
I want to be a vet .
A-what ?
A vet-a veterinary surgeon .
Good gracious ! What's that ?
A vet's a man who takes care of sick animals . He's an animal doctor .
OK , that ' s fine . Bye .
What happened ?
That ' s it , my lease is up . I have to move .
What ? Why ? Can ' t you renew it ?
The owner apparently is selling this place to make way for the construction of a parking lot
Well , I can help you pack . We should start looking for a new place for you ASAP .
I think I might move in with my parents for a couple of months until I can find something . You know how hard it is to find a decent place around here . I ' m gonna have to put most of my stuff in storage for a while .
Well , let me know if there ' s anything I can do to help out .
Actually , would you mind looking after my pet tarantula and snake for a couple of weeks ?
Hi , Daisy !
Hi Simon . Nice to meet you again
I hope you are Settling in at school !
I am ! I've made lots of friends and I really enjoy my courses .
Good ! Me too ! By the way . you didn't tell me what you are studying here .
Didn't I ? I'm doing business studies .
Really ? That's great . You hope to join a company after graduating ?
Maybe . My parents moved to Canada the year when I was born . We are living in Toronto . Suppose I might get a job in Toronto when I graduate . It's too soon to say really .
What about your friend Zoe
She's from Australia . She lives in Sydney . Her father runs a hotel business there and she is doing a degree in accountancy .
Accountancy ? Really ? She must be very good at figures .
I guess so . What about you , Simon ?
I'm studying law .
Great ! So I'll know who to call if I ever need a lawyer .
Excuse me ?
Yes . Can I help you ?
Well , I bought this skirt here yesterday afternoon . But I got the wrong size . It ' s too small for my daughter . I wonder if I could refund it .
Yes , you could if it's kept intact . But don't you want to get a bigger size ?
I intended to , but as far as I know , all the skirts of this kind here are of the same size .
Are they ? In that case , I'll be glad to give your money back .
Sorry to have given you trouble .
How may I help you ?
I want to get a passport .
You need to apply for a passport .
When can I apply for it ?
You can apply right now .
I ' d like to do that .
Fill this out , please .
What ' s next ?
I will need to take your passport picture .
When will my passport be ready ?
It will take about three weeks .
What about a medication to help me with my problem ?
There are several types of medications that we can try for your high blood pressure .
What types of medications would be best ?
For water retention , I am going to start you on Hydrochlorothiazide , which is a diuretic .
What are the side effects from taking that drug ,
You need to stay hydrated on this drug , but most people experience little side effects .
Will that one medication take care of all of my problems ?
For now I want you to take a second drug , Lisinopril , an ACE inhibitor .
Am I going to experience any complications with that drug ?
You saved my life yesterday , Rachel . I can't believe I forgot to bring my wallet when we went to lunch with those clients .
It was a good thing I had enough on me .
How do you like other films starring Charlie Chaplin ?
Well , I like others very much , but I really don't think much of this one .
You don't like the performance , do you ?
Excuse me . This chicken doesn't taste right to me .
What seems to be the problem ?
How should I know ? It's just kind of cold in the middle . It just doesn't taste right . Do you want to try it ?
Well , let me get that out of your way . Would you like to order something else from the menu ? Or I could bring you another order of chicken if you'd like .
Another one ? I don't want another one . Give me something simple . You've got steak , right ?
Yes , we do . How would you like it cooked ?
Hi Michael .
Hi Amy . What's up ?
I'm looking for the airport . Can you tell me how to get there ?
No , sorry . I don't know .
I think I can take the subway to the airport . Do you know where the subway is ?
Sure , it's over there .
Where ? I don't see it .
Across the street .
Oh , I see it now . Thanks .
No problem .
Do you know if there's a restroom around here ?
Yes , there's one here . It's in the store .
Thank you .
She's pretty and meek .
No , I can't agree with you . She's one but not the other .
What makes you think so ?
Hey , don ' t walk on the lawn .
Sorry , I ' m looking for my wallet .
You lost your wallet ? Anything important in it ?
Yes . A lot of cash . Almost forty thousand pounds .
Oh , I ' m sorry to hear that . I think you ' d better talk to the police officer walking there .
It seems that is a better way . Thank you .
I am a little nervous about my presentation on Friday .
If you would like me to , I could help you with that .
Wouldn't that take you away from your project ?
I have plenty of time to do this . I promise you it won't be a problem for me .
Is there a good time for you to help me ?
If we work on this tomorrow night , you could easily be ready by Friday .
How about meeting in my office ?
That would work out well . Bring any concerns that you might have .
Sounds like you'll be able to help me a lot .
Hi . You enjoying the party ?
Yes , actually . I don't really know anyone , but it's a nice place . Are you having a good time ?
Yes . The drinks are very good ! I'm Paul , by the way .
Hello Paul . I'm Jane . So what do you do ?
I'm in finance . You ?
Really ? Me , too . I work for an accountancy company , T & D . Maybe you've heard of them .
T & D ? Oh , yes , sure . How long have you worked there ?
About two years . And you ? Are you based here ?
Would you mind telling me the purpose of your visit to the U . K . ?
I am here on business .
May I see your passport ?
Of course , here you are .
Would you please open the suitcase ? What are these ?
They are two cameras .
Do you have anything to declare ?
Yes , I have one carton of cigarettes and a bottle of whiskey .
Do you like jazz , Tom ?
No , I don't like it very much . Do you ?
Well , yes , I do . I'm a real fan of Wanton Marsalis .
Oh , does he play the piano ?
No , he doesn't ! ! ! He plays the trumpet . So , what kind of music do you like ?
I like rock a lot .
Who's your favorite group ?
The Cranberries . I love their music . How about you ? Do you like them ?
Hi Bob , how ' s business ?
Just okay .
Okay , enough small talk . Let ' s get down to business .
Good idea .
Since we ' re good friends , you don't have to pay me .
What's the name of the series just showed ?
Doctor Butcher .
What a horrible name ! Is it full of suspense ?
I think he deserved his gold .
Did you see his last dive .
Yes , it's perfect !
How nice it is here
You can say that again . The sunny shining and there ' s pleasant raise . it ' s so lovely
I ' Ve heard the whether here is ideal , just like spring most of the year
I take care of the letters . I may read , sort out and organize incoming mails .
So you have to open all the envelopes .
Yes , except the personal mail . And I also need to prepare the materials for posting and check the e-mail box regularly .
Do you need to file copies of the letters before sending them ?
Good coming , Sir .
Good morning .
Where would you like to go ?
To the airport please .
Here we are .
Thank you . How much is it ?
Nine pounds twenty .
Here's ten pounds . Keep the change .
Thank you . Sir
Did you know Carl is almost fifty ?
Are you sure ? He doesn't look that old .
Hello , is Marie Ward there , please ?
I'll see if she is in .
Ok .
I'm afraid she's out .
Can you give her a message , please ?
Yes , of course .
Please tell her to give Colin a call when she gets back . She has my number .
Sure .
Thank you for your help .
Have you begun cleaning up that room of yours ?
I haven't started yet , but I will .
What time are you going to clean it up ?
I'm planning on cleaning it up a little later .
I told you to clean it up earlier .
I know . I am still going to clean it up .
Make sure you vacuum and dust your room .
I won't forget .
I don't want you to leave until you clean up .
Balista , I'll have a frappuccino .
What a girly drink . I'll take a bag of the Blue Mountain and a decaf breva ...
You and your fancy Italian names .
Isn't " frappuccino " Italian , too ? ... and heat me up a panini .
I'll be fine with just my girly drink , thank you very much .
How are you ?
I ' m fantastic !
What can I help you with ?
I want to make a deposit today .
Cash or check ?
It will be cash today .
How much do you want to deposit ?
I need to deposit $ 300 .
What account will you be depositing this money into ?
Deposit it into my checking account .
What else can I do for you today ?
Good morning . Wilson Association .
This is Mr Brown speaking . I'd like to speak to Mr . Thomas , please .
I'm sorry , but Mr . Thomas left the office a few minutes ago .
That's bad ! I've been trying to call him for the last ten minutes , but your line has been busy . Will he be back soon ?
I'm afraid not . He ' s gone for the rest of the day .
Is there anywhere I can reach him ?
I don't believe so . He ' s going out of town on business . May I take a message ?
I have a business appointment with him for tomorrow morning at ten o'clock , but I'm afraid I can't make it .
Would you care to make another appointment ?
Unfortunately , I'm leaving town rather unexpectedly , and I may be gone for several days .
I see . I can tell Mr . Thomas that you phoned .
Thank you .
Ann invited us to dinner this saturday afternoon .
What should we take ?
How about a china vase ?
Excuse me , what material is it ?
Rhaki . Do you want some ?
No , where are the cotton cloths ?
I will show you .
What is the shrink rate after washing ?
John's very late . Do you think he's coming ?
Well , it doesn't seem like it . He must have forgotten .
Let ' s got out tomorrow night . We can go to a bar and try to find you a girlfriend .
I don ' t think that ' s a good idea . I am just not good with approaching someone and starting up a conversation .
Maybe you just need a few pick-up lines , you know , break the ice .
Pick-up lines don ' t work !
Come on ! You can just walk up to a girl and say " If you were a booger I \ ' d pick you first . "
What ? Come on ! That ' s just lame ! No girl would fall for that !
Fine , then you can say , " So there you are ! I ' Ve been looking all over for YOU , the woman of my dreams ! "
That ' s a good one ! I think that ' s pretty funny .
Yeah , so you make her laugh , you make a fool of yourself a little bit and then you buy her a drink .
Ok , how does this sound , " I was so enchanted by your beauty that I ran into that wall over there . So I am going to need your name and number for insurance purposes . "
What time shall I pick you up ?
How about 6:30 ?
My disposable contact lenses . They're great for camping !
Cool ! Each contact comes in its own saline solution ?
Yep . They're prescription contacts with UV protection .
Wow ! How high-class ... a new pair for each day ...
You just pop'em in in the morning , take them out at night , and then throw them away . No cleaning !
Cool . So are you near-sighted or far-sighted ?
You should have seen the T . V . show that was on last night , the topic it covered was really interesting , animal rights .
Do you really believe in that ? If they are going to focus on something , they should do it on civil rights .
Yes , but we can ' t deny that animals are vulnerable , defenseless , and are completely at the mercy of human beings .
I understand your point , but we continue to have transgressions against human rights . If so much attention weren ' t devoted to the topic of animals , we would then concentrate more on saving a human being instead of protecting a koala .
You can ' t compare apples and oranges . I believe that both topics are important and that we can ' t ignore them , the mistreatment of animals can cause a great environmental imbalance . I believe that governments should prohibit activities like poaching .
Well , you are right on that point . This is the reason that I don ' t buy leather and I try to buy synthetic products .
Which season do you like best ?
I like spring best . It is neither too cold nor too hot . Freezing days make me lazy and stuffy days make me lazier . How about you ?
I prefer summer , especially the summer evenings . When the sun comes down , it is so nice to take a walk and breathe . After a rain shower , the smell of the air is refreshing . It is also a best reason for ice-cream .
How do you get through the stuffy daytime ?
Do you have a copy of today ' s newspaper ? I want to check the results from the world athletics championship .
Yes , I ' m just reading them myself . It ' s been a great competition . We got gold medals in three events .
Yes , we won the men ' s 110 metres hurdles . I watched that on TV . What other events did we win ?
We won the men ' s high jump and the women ' s 1500 meters .
That ' s great . Those athletes must train for years to get into peak physical condition . They must be terribly disappointed if they don ' t win .
The woman who won the 1500 meters also broke the world record by 2 seconds .
That ' s amazing ! Were any other records broken ?
A Russian man broke the discus record by a centimeters . Out best athlete broke his personal best in the long jump , but it only got him third place .
Did you see the final of the men ' s 100 metres ? It was very exciting . One competitor made two false starts .
Was he disqualified ?
Do you often buy magazines ?
I buy a computer magazine every month . It keeps me up-to date with all the latest developments .
Why don ' t you find the information on the internet instead ?
Sometimes it takes too long to find the exact information you are looking for . Besides , I like to read a magazine in a coffee bar sometimes .
Do you have an online edition of that magazine ?
Yes , they do . But you can only access all the articles if you have a subscription .
Do you have a subscription ?
Yes , I do . The magazine arrives by post at the beginning of each month . Do you every buy magazines ?
Which of the steps are you focusing on in brandgrowth Awareness , understanding , acceptance , or loyalty ?
We're working on different steps in different areas . For example , our Colbert line is thriving in American markets , we've already reached the loyalty stage . In Asia , however , it's a different story . Most people haven't even heard of Colbert , so we're working on awareness through a lot of product launches and related activities .
What are you doing to increase understanding in the European sector ?
Lester , you are really fantastic at automobile repair .
Thanks , June . But I think I need to be certified as a mechanic 5 before I ' m allowed to repair cars for a living .
That ' s not a big problem . There are many small schools for adults like you who can study to be certified .
I guess I never thought of that before .
And you can easily get a student loan from a vocational school , or from the government .
She lives a happy life after marriage .
We all know that . Her husband always make a fuss of her .
I remember you said that you like China because it has cheap beers .
Yes , unbelievably cheap . Carlsborg is less than $ 1 .
Why do you drink ? I mean , where does drinking get you ?
It's fashionable .
Come on , you don't even know that blinds following is a sign of immaturity .
Mary , it's not about the blind following . What matter is I enjoy in drinking . It's like when you get off of work . You're so tired . You need to get relaxed . You can't just turn on the TV and keep watch the programs until you fall asleep . You need to make your after work time more fun .
How ? By drinking ?
Drinking is just part of it . I mean , you have a bunch of friends coming by and having fun . You drink and talk . And the more you drink , the more you talk . It makes me so relaxed .
When did you begin to drink ?
It's a long time ago . When I first went to a bar to pick up girls there , I saw the most beautiful girl sitting and sipping a coke . Then I went up to her and said ' can I buy you a drink ? '
And then ?
Then I talked to her and got her number . You know what ? When you don't know what to say ? Just drink .
I'll never ever work together with him !
What happened ? Quarrel again ?
Will you take my materials back from him for me ? Please !
Could you do something to advance your time of shipment ?
Well , our manufacturers are fully committed at the moment . I'm afraid it's very difficult to improve any further on the time .
I hope you'll try to convince them to step up production .
We check their production schedule against our orders almost every day . As new orders keep coming in , they are working three shifts to step up production . I'm sorry , but we simply cannot commit ourselves beyond what the production schedule can fulfill .
Well , in that case , there is nothing more to be said . What's your last word as to the date then ?
I said by the middle of October . This is the best we can promise .
All right . I'll take you at your word . May I suggest that you put down in the contract shipment on October 15th or earlier ? Our letter of credit will be opened early September .
Good . Let's call it a deal . We'll do our best to advance the shipment to September . The chances are that some of the other orders may be cancelled . But of course you cannot count on that . In any case , we'll let you know by email .
That's very considerate of you . And now , shall we discuss the insurance terms ?
We generally insure W . P . ( W . P . A ) on a C . I . F . offer . Special risks , such as TEND ( Theft , Pilferage and Non-delivery ) , leakage , breakage , oil , freshwater , etc . can also be covered upon request .
I suppose the additional premium for the special coverage is for the buyer's account .
Quite right . According to the usual practice in international trade , special risks are not covered unless the buyer asks for them .
Then what about SICC ( Strikes , Riots and Civil Commotions ) ? Can we request you to cover this for our imports ?
Yes , we accept it now , after it has been suspended for many years . However , if you want to have it covered for your imports at your end , you may arrange the insurance as you like .
Then please cover W . P . A . and TEND for this transaction .
Alright , we need to have a plan here . First of all , which bed do you want ?
Well , everybody wants the bottom bunk . Why don't we flip a coin for it ?
Alright . Do you have a coin ?
Yes . Here's a quarter . I flip it , you call it in the air .
Heads .
Sorry , it's tails . You lose .
Oh , well . So you get the bottom bunk . What about our stereos ? It looks like we both brought our stereos . Probably we only have room for one .
Your stereo is better than mine . Do you mind if we use yours ?
No , I don't mind . I just don't know where we can put the speakers in this tiny room .
Probably we can put one on that counter . And we can put one on the floor by the bed . Over there .
Alright . That's a good plan . What about the desks ? We have two desks , one by the window and one by the door ? Which one do you want ?
Well , the desk by the window is nicer , of course . Don't you think ?
Yes , I agree .
So since I got the bottom bunk , why don't you get the desk by the window ? That would be more fair .
Alright .
I mean , we could flip a coin for it , but I would probably win again . I'm incredibly lucky you know . Especially with girls .
Is that right ?
Yes , that's right .
Well , I hope you let me hang out with you then . Maybe I can learn from you .
Oh , certainly . Certainly . I'm always willing to help beginners . Just call me Big Brother Dave .
Are all lucky people so stuck up ?
C'mon , don't take it seriously ! I'm just kidding .
Anyway , I get the desk by the window , you get the bottom bunk . That's it .
Why don't we start unpacking these boxes ?
I will go get something to eat . You unpack first . Then , when I come back , I'll unpack .
Betty , something is burning . Can you smell it ?
You ' re right .
Look ! The iron is still on .
I should have turned it off . I ' ll turn it off now .
Look at my nice blue shirt , there ' s a big hole in it .
I ' m sorry , Jim .
I would like to talk to you , if you have time .
What ' s going on ?
I want to discuss some things about my lease .
What aren ' t you too sure about ?
Can you tell me when my lease is up ?
Your lease is for three years .
If I ever decide to leave before the three years , will there be a problem ?
If you do , I will keep your deductible .
Why is that ?
If you break the contract , then you will not receive your deductible .
Oh , I see .
Which bus should I take from PHS to Sons ?
Can you tell me which Sons you want to go to ?
I believe that it's on Fair Oaks and Orange Grove .
You'll have to catch two different buses to get there .
Do you know which buses I need to take ?
The 268 is the first bus you need to catch .
What do I do after I get on the 268 ?
Get off when you get to Fair Oaks and Washington .
Then what ?
Catch the 261 and get off at Sons .
That's all ?
Good evening , Pizza House . This is Marty speaking . May I take your order ?
Um yes , I'd like a medium pizza with pepperoni , olives , and extra cheese .
We have a two-for-one special on large pizzas . Would you like a large pizza instead ?
Sure , that sounds good .
Great ! Would you like your second pizza to be these as the first ?
No , make the second one with ham , pineappleand green peppers . Oh , and make it thin crust .
Okay , thin crust . Your total is $ 21 . 50 and yourorder will arrive in thirty minutes or it ' s free !
Perfect . Thank you . Bye ...
You ' re free to leave .
I ' m so excited .
What are you planning on doing now ?
I ' m going back to college .
What are you going to major in ?
I haven ' t thought about it yet .
I don ' t want to see you back here .
You won ' t see me here again .
I don ' t think this place is for you .
I know .
I wish you luck .
Hi , the lab said that you would be getting my test results in today .
I like you to come in and discuss some further tests that I would like to run .
I think that this is a bad sign .
For now , I would like to run a few more tests to look into some of the problems that you mentioned .
Why wouldn ' t you tell me over the phone ?
If there is any question about test results , we always do a recheck .
I need to come in right away .
I would be happy to see you this afternoon . If you are feeling upset , please bring a friend or relative along .
You are scaring me !
Are you here for the position advertised in China Daily ?
Yes , I am . I'm very interested in that advertisement about hiring a computer program designer , and hope to know a little more about it .
What kind of information would you like ?
Well , first I would like to know if this position is still available .
Yes , it's still open .
Terrific ! Then how should I apply for ?
Oh , we need your resume , health report , three photographs and several letters of recommendation . Would you please send them to us by next Wednesday ?
Hello , this is Lin Tao . I am calling to inquire about my interview result last week .
Hi , I am sorry to say that your experience doesn't fit the job at all .
Sorry to hear that , but could you inform me why I failed ?
Please forgive me for rushing into your room forgetting to knock at the door .
Never mind .
I'm so sorry to disturb you so early .
It doesn't matter .
I'm dreadfully sorry . I forgot to book the tickets yesterday .
Oh , it's nothing .
I let you down . I'll make it up to you somehow .
You are going to be really jealous when you find out where I ' m headed for the holidays !
Don ' t tell me ! I ' m sure it ' s someplace warm and sunny with great beaches !
You got it ! I ' m going to spend two fabulous weeks in Hawaii !
Daddy , how are you going to spend your weekends ?
I need to finish my research paper .
Could you go with me to climb Kiang Shan ?
Honey , I am sorry I have no time .
Oh , Daddy , you should do more exercise . You are getting a little heavy .
I am afraid you are right . Recently , even going upstairs makes me out of breath .
Then go climbing with me , Daddy . Mountain climbing can build your muscles like Popeyes .
Terrific ! It is also a good exercise to keep me fit .
I give you my word , you must feel refreshed after mountain climbing .
OK , I'll go .
That's a deal .
Is this the A housing office ?
Yes , it is . Are you looking for housing for this semester ?
I was hoping to get into something on campus , but my friend told me that everything is full .
It is , but I can put you on a waiting list , if you would like .
Please . And in the mean time , can I look at apartments available in the area from this office ?
Yes , here is a catalog that is put out every year with locations that meet campus requirements for As .
Who do I talk to if I want I to see some of them ?
How did you enjoy your family party at " ginger ' s " ? I hear that they have a lovely menu and buffet .
Oh , it was great . We had seafood buffet . They do one every Friday . The waiters and waitresses are very good . They are very attentive , but don ' t hang around the table .
I like the buffets they have , but if often order a la carte , because I don ' t feel extremely hungry . I like the wine list there too .
Yes , so do I . they have wines from all over the world . There is a good range of prices to suit every pocket . We ordered some Australian red wine , which tasted delicious and wasn ' t expensive .
Some restaurants allow you to take your own wine and just charge you corkage , but the don ' t do that at " ginger ' s " . what was included in the seafood buffet ?
They had almost every kind of seafood . There were oyster , shrimp , prawns , crabs , and fish . I ate a lot of smoked salmon .
Did they have lobster ?
No , they didn ' t . you could order it from the menu . I think that lobster is too expensive to be included in the buffet .
Yes , it probably is . I don ' t like ordering oysters in restaurants . You never know whether they are fresh .
I know . I didn ' t eat any , but a few people in our group did and no one got sick .
When you eat out , do you usually eat from the buffet ?
Not usually . I usually just order a main course and have a dessert if I ' m still hungry afterwards .
Oh , you don ' t usually have a starter ?
When were you born may I ask ?
On 20th May 1963 .
Do you know what it was according to the lunar calendar ?
27th day of the fourth month .
By the way , could you tell me when the film will begin ?
It will begin at 5:30 .
I am afraid I can't be there on time .
You can see it tomorrow .
Next time you buy veggies or fruits , have them bagged and weighed before you come here .
Sorry . I didn't know .
The total comes to US $ 65 . 81 . How will you pay today ?
I'm going to use my ATM card .
Slide your card through the card ID pad and punch in your PIN .
Done .
One moment . Do you want to withdraw some cash while you're at it ?
No , thanks .
Paper or plastic ?
Pardon me ?
Do you want paper or plastic bags for your groceries ?
Have you got your invitation yet ?
My invitation ? No , I haven't . My invitation to what ?
The house warming party .
Whose house warming party is it ?
Tom and Bill Smith . They are both working now you know ? And they've bought a new house .
Oh , they have ? I didn't know . I haven't seen Tom lately .
It's out in the suburbs .
Have you seen the house ?
Yes , I have . I went out with them last weekend .
Is it nice ?
Yes , it is . There are three bedrooms , a living room , a dining room , and a big kitchen . There's also a garden .
Well , that does sound nice . Have they moved in yet ?
They are moving today . Tom's taken the day off . He's rented a truck , and they should have all their furniture in the house tonight .
When are they going to have the party ?
Next Saturday night . You should get your invitation today or tomorrow .
How may I help you ?
I need to return these books .
Give them here .
Here they are .
It appears these books are two weeks late .
I forgot they were due .
You do realize you are going to have to pay late fees , right ?
How much is the late fee ?
The late fee is 25 cents a day .
So I have to pay 25 cents for each day the books are late ?
It ' s 25 cents for each book .
Hello , my name is Clark . May I speak to Mr . Allen , please ?
This is Rick Allen speaking . Can I help you ?
Mr . Allen , I have just received your note which informs me that you have offered the accountant position to another candidate . May I ask why I was defeated ?
We have thought of you very carefully , but the other candidate has more experience .
Experience is indeed very important , but don ' t you think capability is more important than it ?
Of course , I think so . But how can you prove to me that you are more capable ?
Maybe you could hire me on trial , if I ' m not qualified for this position , you can let me go .
Will you tell me the situation ?
I was in my friend's room talking for an hour of so .
And then ?
I came back to my room and found that my suitcase was open and my camera and five hundred dollars in cash inside the wallet were gone .
I'm afraid you must give up the cash . Are you insured ?
Yes , this is my overseas travel accident insurance card .
Tom , did you see the film last night ?
Yes , I did , I thought it was a failure .
Do you really think so ? I don't think so . It wasn't that bad film at all . Didn't you hear the applause of the audience ?
Well , maybe so . But I still think everyone has their rights of their own opinion .
Okay , next question . If Eric asked you out on a date , what would you say ?
Duh ! I would say yes ! Eric is the most popular kid in school ! Okay , my turn . What would you do if you won the lottery ?
Let ' s see ... If I won the lottery , I would buy two tickets for a trip around the world .
If you buy me a ticket I will go with you for sure !
My dad will freak out if I even mention a trip like that !
Alright this is a good one . What would your mom say if you told her you are going to get married ?
Before we begin eating , I'd like to present everyone with a gift from Taiwan .
What is it ?
It's a Taiwanese puppet doll .
It's huge !
Yeah . They're usually this big .
The craftsmanship is excellent .
All the parts work .
Thank you so much .
Kate , will you please make ten copies of this report ?
I'd like to , but the photocopier is out of order .
Then use the xerox machine .
It broke down one year ago .
Oh , forget it then . Hey , I told you to put the files on the in tray , not on my desk .
The pile is over ten feet high . I am afraid it will fall all over and bury you underneath it if I put this file on top of it .
Very funny . What's wrong with you today ? You are my secretary and you are not supposed to talk to me in that tone of voice . Do you know that ?
What do you expect ? I've been working for you for three years , and you've never given me a holiday . I don't feel well today , because I have a terrible headache . I am not in the mood for being gentle and polite . If you can't stand it , it's your problem . I am not going to change , because I think it suits you best .
Keep your voice down , Kate . I know you've had a hard day today , but you should at least show some respect for me . If you really don't feel well , go home . There isn't much work today anyway .
I want to go try on these clothes .
What did you find ?
I found some jeans , and a new blouse .
Go and try it on .
What do you think ?
I love that shirt on you .
What about the jeans ?
They don't really fit you right .
I don't think so either .
That blouse is absolutely wonderful on you .
I'll just buy the shirt .
Have you seen the news that there is a serious flood in the South ?
Yes . I've got to cancel my traveling plan .
What a pity ! I know you've been longing for it these months .
I've heard that you are going to call for a tender . What kind of goods would you like to buy ?
Yes , we're ready to start the invitation to tender . You're well informed . We'd like to build new factory .
When do you open the tender ? And where ?
We intend to open the tender at first next month in Beijing .
And when is the closing date ?
The time period is set on June 29th .
Could you please tell me something more about the conditions for the tender ?
All right . The area of the factory buildings is around 8,000 square meters . You can read the details in the invitations which will be sent tomorrow .
Thank you for your information .
You're welcome .
I'm sorry to have taken up too much of your time .
It doesn't matter . We'll be in touch .
Okay , bye !
Who is this on the water buffalo ?
That's my grand-father . He was a farmer . When he was young , he had to take the water buffalo to graze in the field .
Oh yes , that was the best job in most farm families . That's where many of them learned to play the flute .
My grandfather did that too . He used the time to study instead .
That's interesting . Go on !
My grand grandfather was a merchant who ran a small business . He couldn't afford to send my grand father to school .
So he became a self-taught man ?
Right . Later he was a soldier and a fireman in the village . When he was middle aged , he became a great man , quite famous .
In what field ?
As a leader of police officers in charge of the whole country .
Is he still in that that type of work .
No . He retired from that . He is a senator now .
Would you want to be a senator ?
Hi , Monica , congratulations ! Your presentation at the meeting was very successful and everyone was impressed by your speech . And it was so persuasive and I bet our clients will be convinced to invest their money in this project . You really made a big contribution to our company .
Thank you , I just tried my best . I am very happy to know you like it .
You must have been prepared for a long time . Some statistics in this presentation are not easy to find , right ?
Well , yes . Several colleagues from different departments helped me with that . They are very supportive . I consulted an economic expert last week . He was very kind to give valuable suggestions .
Now , the effort pays off . You have accomplished something .
Whoa ! This is a massive flea market !
You're telling me ! There are thousands of people here .
And hundreds of booths-all filled with different kinds of stuff .
This is almost like a Taiwanese night market ! I can't believe it !
You can't buy much more , Wei ! You already have enough to fill two boxes to send back to Taiwan .
Excuse me , sir . May I help you ?
Yes . I have to change a room .
What's wrong ?
Next door is so noisy . I can't sleep at all .
Hi , my name is Ted , what ' s yours ?
What ?
I said , I ' m Ted , who are you ?
Huh ? Oh , my name is Laura .
Do you somewhere often , Laura ?
Huh ? I can ' t hear you , the music ' s too loud .
Let ' s go outside and talk . So Laura , do you come here often ?
Hold on , my ears are still ringing from the music ... what was it you asked me ?
I asked if you come here often .
Sometimes , usually once every few weeks . Do you ?
No , this is my first time here .
I usually come with a group of friends . We dance a little , have a few drinks , and just have a good time .
Yeah , that ' s why I ' m here . My friends dragged me here , because they think I spend too much time studying .
That ' s good . It ' s good to hit the books , but you need to get out once in a while .
How old are you ?
What happened ?
I don't know .
Let's stop and have a look .
Don't waste time .
I'm curious about that .
I can ' t believe my English teacher is making me read pride and prejudice !
Why not ! It ' s a classic ; in fact , it ' s one of my favorite novels .
But it ' s so old .
Don ' t judge a book by its cover . Do you Kwon what it ' s about ?
No , not at all .
First of all , it ' s a romance novel , set in the early 19th century .
I didn ' t realize it was a romance novel . What ' s the main storyline ?
It ' s basically about a father who tried to marry off one of his five girls .
Why does he want to do that ?
Since he doesn ' t have a son , he hopes that one of the girls will marry a wealthy man . That way , all of his daughters will be cared for .
Won ' t they get his inheritance ?
No , that ' s the problem . Though they are well-off , once he dies , his house will go to his cousin . So , when he dies , the girls will have nothing .
I see . This sounds interesting ! Maybe my teacher isn ' t so horrible after all .
So , are you going to read the novel or watch the movie ?
There ' s movie ? My teacher didn ' t tell me that !
That ' s probably because she wants you to read the book first .
It would take a lot less time ..
How about this . When you finish the book . I ' ll get the movie and watch it with you .
I am keen on a coat on www . dingding . com . But it requires having an online banking account . Is it necessary ?
Indeed . Online banking enables you to make on-line shopping .
Do you know how to get the bank account ?
Bring your ID card and fill out a form . That will be fine .
So easy .
I think online banking can change your money habits and it is quicker than ATM processing speed .
Who is the next ?
I am .
All right . Over here , sir . How are you today ?
Fine , thanks .
How do you want you hair cut ?
Don't make it too short . I just want a trim .
Yes , sir . I will use the scissors . Do you always part your hair on the left ?
Yes , I do . That looks good . It's not too short . It ' s just right . How much do I owe you ?
That will be 3 . 50 dollars .
Here is 4 dollars , keep the change .
Hello , Kevin . I hate to do this , but I have to cancel our appointment .
Oh , no ! Why ? I was looking forward to seeing you at my new place .
Yeah , I really wanted to come , too . But something unexpected in Shanghai have come up . I have to fly out for a few days , but I'll be back soon .
No problem . Call me when you get back .
I should have some free time next week . Say , next Wednesday evening ?
That's good for me , but do you think you'll be back by then ? I'd really like to see you .
Yeah , I'm expecting to come back on Tuesday .
Great ! That's settled then .
I hear you jog everyday .
I'm doing it for fun and fitness .
I think maybe one day you can take part in the walking race .
What ' s your new job like ?
Oh , it ' s fine . I ' Ve got a very nice secretary and a large pleasant office .
Um .
And a company car .
Very nice .
Yes , it is . But I ' Ve got a lot of work too .
Can I help you ?
My wife and I want to go to Beijing for a tour . Can you arrange it ?
Yes , we can arrange that .
I'd like to know what kind of tour your travel agency has .
Our travel agency provides all kinds of tours , ranging from individual tour to group package tour .
Excellent .
When do you expect to come ?
September 28th .
What specific places do you wish to visit ?
We would like to visit the Great Wall , the Ming Tombs and the Imperial Palace .
What's the cheapest way to go there ?
By subway .
Oh , is that right ? Is there a subway station near here ?
Yes , there is one on the other side of the building .
Good . Can I walk through this building ?
I'm afraid you can't . You'll have to go out there and walk around .
How do I apply to an American university ?
You should go to the library to find some information about American universities , and write to the Admission Office . Then the Admission Office will send you application forms and other related materials . From experience , many applicants write to several universities instead of just one .
I was told that it took a lot of time and effort to apply .
That is true . I ' ll list for you the requirements of almost all the universities . First of all , you need official transcripts of your undergraduate work , three letters of recommendation from your professors who know your competence , and the official TOEFL ( Test of English as a Foreign Language ) score ( It ' s usually 550 ) . Then you need a financial guarantee , and an application fee of 25 dollars .
What's to come next ?
If they agree to enroll you , they will send you a TAP - 66 Form . With TAP - 66 , you can apply for a passport from our government , and then apply for a visa from the US . Embassy in Beijing .
How long will it take to go over all the procedures ?
From 3 to 6 months if everything goes well .
Thank you . I appreciate your help .
Please bring your baggage here for inspection .
Here you are , officer .
Is all your baggage here ?
Yes , a camera bag , a travel bag and a suitcase .
Have you got anything to declare ?
My boss wore a real stupid tie to work today . Can you guess why ?
He isn't a man of good taste for clothes , is he ?
He is , but I didn't mean that . His daughter bought him a tie as a Father's Day gift , and he was very happy to wear it and show it off to us in the office .
It must be hard being a father .
No , it's great being a father , seeing your children growing up and loving you and admiring you .
Excuse me , sir . My baggage is badly damaged .
I am sorry to hear that . You have to fill out a claim form .
Where can I get it ?
Thanks for the loan .
Hello .
Hello . May I speak to Mark , please ?
Sure , just a minute . Mark , you're wanted on the phone .
Hello , this is Mark speaking .
Hi ! This is Jill . How come you didn't come in today ?
Oh , we had a birthday party for David last night . As a matter of fact I woke up with a terrible hangover .
That's too bad . You ' ll have to be more careful nest time .
Anything new at the office ?
No , nothing special . Oh , yes , you know Bill , The guy with the moustache . His wife had a baby girl last night and he passed out cigars to everyone today , He said his wife and daughter are doing fine . The baby is their first child .
That's wonderful ! We've got to celebrate !
Yes , we have to . Do you think you can make it tomorrow ?
Sure . I ought to be ready for some more drinks by then . Thank you for calling .
Are you here to make a deposit Mr Hayes ?
No , Nancy , today I'm here to make a withdrawal . I made a formal request 7 days ago .
You want to withdraw on your Time Deposit , right ?
That's correct . But before I do , I was wondering if you could give me some advice .
Of course , Mr Hayes . That's what I'm here for . What would you like to know ?
Maybe I'm making a big mistake cashing in my Time Deposit before maturity .
This bank charges you 6 months interest as a penalty if you withdraw before maturity . Would it be possible to take the money from your Current Account , for example ?
I ' Ve decided to go to the cinema alone this evening .
What has caused you to make such a decision ? Didn ' t you used to go with Helen ?
Helen is nice but she talks a lot .
Oh . That ' s really annoying when seeing a film .
Finally the class is over . Be quick . Ben must have been waiting for long .
Oh , I am so tired . My back is sore and my neck hurts .
That's normal . You have been sitting for three hours , with your attention highly concentrated .
You are wrong , Shirley . I was always absent-minded in the class . I meant to concentrate on the class , but I was just so tired . Maybe I am old .
No . You are just burning yourself out these days . Have a good rest and you will feel energetic again .
One of my friends took the Adult College Entrance Exam last year . He filled the school column with his name , and his score was relinquished .
How could he make such a silly mistake ?
He said he hadn't taken any exams for ten years , and couldn't get used to it immediately . He was extremely nervous then .
He lost a very good chance to go to college , didn't he ?
Yeah . The test was fairly easy and almost every test-taker could pass that exam . Adult College Entrance Exam is much easier than college entrance exam . And there are fewer subjects .
Hello , Tom . I'm really glad to meet you here .
I'm glad too . Steven , I want to tell you that I'm going to divorce my wife .
I'm so surprised , B . Why did you decide to end your marriage suddenly ?
We don't get along well with each other and fight a lot .
I didn't know that . I thought that you were happy together .
That isn't true . Actually , we have been separated for six months .
I can't believe it . But if you both determine to divorce , I hope you will have an amicable split .
Thank you , Steven . I accept your advice .
Hello , Tom . I'm really glad to meet you here .
I'm glad too . Steven , I want to tell you that I'm going to divorce my wife .
I'm so surprised , B . Why did you decide to end your marriage suddenly ?
We don't get along well with each other and fight a lot .
I didn't know that . I thought that you were happy together .
That isn't true . Actually , we have been separated for six months .
I can't believe it . But if you both determine to divorce , I hope you will have an amicable split .
pardon me . Could you please pass me the tissue ?
sure , here you are .
thanks , I didn't expect the dish to be so spicy . Are you ok ?
yeah , I think the food is alright , it's not too spicy though it's a little salty for me . But you are Chinese , you should have known better .
well , not every Chinese can handle spicy food in the way people from Sichuan and Cuizhou provinces can . Back where I come from , people don't eat a lot of papers and chilies .
Oh , I see how this food can be really hard for you . I can sympathize with that . I stayed in Sichuan for a year . The food was difficult at the beginning . Every dish was so spicy . After a while , I got u
yeah , you can increase you tolerance for spicy food , but so far , I haven't had the need or the opportunity . Every time I try spicy food , it is a total disaster for my nose and eyes .
I completely understand . I didn't intend on liking spicy food at first either , but when you have no other choicest , you've got to adapt .
yeah , I guess that's a typical example of when in Rome , do as the Romans do .
Most people in Montreal speak French .
Are there any people who speak English ?
What kind of books do you like ?
I like reading novels about early America .
Really ? Me too .
Which one do you like best ?
I prefer the novels by Hemingway , such as The Old Man and the Sea . I like the simple words in his novels .
Yup . Though the words he used are simple , but the spirit he has conveyed is great .
How much is the postage for this postcard to China ?
How would you like to send it ?
By airmail .
Sixty cents please .
Here you are .
Please write down the zip code in the mailing address .
Oh , one more thing , I want to send the card by registered mail too .
OK . please give me twenty cents .
Here it is . and thank you very much .
Can you deliver it , please ?
It depends where you live , sir .
In Camden Town .
Yes , we deliver there . But it costs two pounds fifty .
All right . But I'm only in on Saturday .
Morning or afternoon ?
Oh , dear ! which dress should I choose ? I can't make up my mind . Please help me .
You know I don't know anything about fashion .
Which dress do you like best ?
Well , they are both all right .
Only all right ?
Oh , no . I mean you look very nice in both of them .
Mike , that's no help to me at all . I can't wear both of them at the same time . I want a decision .
But after all , it is your decision , not mine .
I wonder what he looks like . Oh , I can't wait to see him ! His email said he'd be wearing a white hat . ( looking around for him ) oh , there he is .
hey , Isabelle ...
Logan ! Why on earth are you hiding here ? White hat ! Come on ! Don't tell me you're the guy ! It can't be true .
yes , I am the guy .
what a bummer ! You set me up ?
let me explain . I didn't mean to hurt you ...
how dare you !
hang on a second . Hear me out , just this once , Isabella !
why did you lie to me in the email ?
I didn't lie . You just didn't ask me my real name .
I should have known it was you . No wonder all the 20 questions were answered correctly . I thought I might have found the one for me .
This house is very nice for me , but I can ' t afford it in a lump sum .
Don ' t worry , you can pay in an installment , that is to say , you don ' t have to pay the whole amount of money at once .
That ' s good . Will you tell me the details ?
Certainly , you need to pay a deposit at first , and you will pay the rest monthly .
How long will it take ?
It depends .
I need to talk it over with my wife .
Can I help you ?
Yes , I need to buy a computer for this semester . I was told it is cheaper to buy computers here .
Well , you heard right . You can get an excellent deal on a new computer here . We have great discounts for students .
I don't know much about computers . But I know I want a desktop computer with a lot of memory . And I need a printer .
Well , first let's consider your computer . Here , for example , is a system I highly recommend-the Power Macintosh G3 . it comes with 64 megabytes of total memory .
Is that a lot ? Sixty-four ?
Yes , it is . It should be enough for any student needs you might have . What department are you in ?
History .
Well , so you will mostly be using word processing , for writing papers . I recommend the Corel Word Perfect program for word processing . We can talk about software later . Let's talk about your hardware first . We have a special deal on right now . I should tell you about it , as it only goes until next Tuesday . If you buy one of these fifteen-inch color monitors with a Power Macintosh G3 , you can actually get 30 percent off the usual sale price .
Thirty percent ?
Yes .
Wow . That's really good . And you think this is really a good system for a graduate student ?
Yes . It's an excellent system .
Hmm . Hey , wait . This has an Apple on it . Is this an Apple computer ?
Yes , it's a Macintosh . It's Apple . Mcintosh and Apple are the same thing .
I don't want Macintosh . I want PC .
I'm sorry , but our university computer center only sells Macintosh equipment .
What ? Are you serious ?
Yes .
But nobody uses Macintosh !
That's not true . Most of the students and professors in the university here use Macintosh . They find it is better for writing and word-processing , and that is what students mostly do . May I ask where you're from ?
Yes , I'm from Taiwan .
Well , I know that in most Asian countries Apple is not very popular . But here in America , especially in universities and publishing companies , Apple is very commonly used .
But I need a computer that can handle writing in Chinese .
There are several Chinese writing programs you can use with Macintosh . Chinese is no problem for Apple .
Hmm . I think I should ask some of my friends for advice before I make a decision . I'm sorry .
No , don't be sorry . It's reasonable to ask your friends . But believe me , most of the students here in the university-Asian students included-most of them use Apple .
Well , thanks for your advice . I will probably come back later .
Miss Fallen , can you tell me why you want to get a visa to the States ?
To study . I am going to the University of Tampa to do a postgraduate course for three years .
And do you have the Letter of Acceptance from the University with you ?
Yes , here it is .
Thank you very much . And do you have any proof of the financial support for the three years ?
I've got a letter from my bank here . It shows I am able to support myself during these three years of studies .
Could I see that , please ?
Yes , here it is .
Thanks very much . Well , I'll be able to give you a visa for one year , a student visa , that is .
Oh , but mine is a three-year program .
Yes , it is a three-year , but you can renew the visa each year in the States . It is our usual procedure .
Doesn't she have any friends ?
If she has , they must be fair-weather friends .
Such friends are even worse than enemies .
May I take a look at the shoes over there ?
Certainly . What's your size ?
Size 24 . Are they synthetic or leather ?
They are all leather . How do they feel ?
Good morning , Mr . Chu . Would you like me to brief your schedule for today ?
Yes .
You are scheduled to meet Mr . Thompson of ABC Company at eleven this morning . Then , you have a lunch appointment with Mr . Li . And this afternoon at four you will attend a press conference .
I am afraid I can't attend the press conference due to an urgent conference with the Board of Directors at half past four .
All right . Do you want me to cancel the reservation for you ?
Yes , thank you very much . In addition , do you have the marketing proposal ready ?
What shall we do now ?
Let's get the table wares we need first , And then stand in the line .
I've got all I need .
Let's stand in the line now .
It smells good . Look at these . They make my mouth watering .
Me too .
It will be our turn soon .
Tell the waiter what you want when it's your turn .
OK . I'll have many cream cakes today .
Good afternoon . It's a pleasure to see you again ! What can we do for you today ?
I've come in to give you the documents under the L / C we opened , the new one . This lot are from Singapore , a new customer .
Have you had a chance to go through them yet ?
Yes , with a fine toothed comb , as usual . Everything seems fine , except for one thing . The description of the items we are purchasing is a little different from what we expected .
Is it a big difference ?
Fair-Priced Fares , how may I help you ?
How much is a round-trip ticket to London ?
When did you plan to go , sir ?
In the second week of September .
The second week of September is still in the high-season , so the cheapest tickets are $ 650 . The high season lasts until the 15th , so fares after that date are cheaper .
In that case , I'll go after the 15th . How much are the off-season fares ?
Our cheapest ticket is $ 550 on American Airlines .
What do you like to do with your free time ?
Study English .
You mean you like to study English ? Why ?
It gives me great satisfaction .
Studying English wouldn't give me any satisfaction . It ' s hard work .
Those are today ' s top stories . Now let ' s go to John for the weather . John , what does the forecast look like for our weekend travelers ?
I ' m afraid we ' re in for a rough weekend , Mary . There is a storm system moving through the East Coast . It will be drizzling all day today , and there ' s a 60 percent chance of thunderstorms this eve
That ' s pretty chilly for the summer ! Will it rain on Saturday ?
Unfortunately , yes . It will be clear early Saturday morning but there is a high chance of showers and thunderstorms later in the day . There is a severe thunderstorm warning for some parts of the Sout
That certainly sounds like a dreary Saturday .
I called about that ad we saw in the paper .
For the construction site manager ?
That's the one .
What happened ?
You were right . It was from a headhunter . She wouldn't tell me anything without a contract .
Well , no surprise there .
No ! Not at all . But , I did find out they have more than one position with different clients , so at least one would probably work .
Great , so are you going to sign a contract with them ?
I'm going there tomorrow .
Good morning . May I help you ?
Yes . I'm looking for an apartment . I'd like two bedrooms .
All right . Have a seat , please . Let me ask you a few questions . First of all , may I have your name , please ?
My name's Donald Eakins .
How do you spell your last name , Mr . Eakins .
It's E-A-K-I-N-S .
E-A-K-I-N-S . First name , Donald . And what's your present address , Mr . Eakins ?
It's 1446 Pine Street .
1446 Pine . That ' s in San Francisco , isn't it ?
Good morning ! Can I help you ?
Yes , let me see some of your hats , please .
OK , come this way , please . How does this one fit you ?
It's a little bit tight .
Let me stretch it for you . How is that now ?
Yes , it fits all right now . I'll take it . Please put it in a bag and I'll take along .
OK . Here you are .
How much is it ?
Thirty-five yuan .
Here is the money .
Thanks . Nothing else , today ?
I'm going to the shops in a minute . What do we need ?
We're okay for vegetables but we should stock up on meat . Can you go to the butcher's and get some veal and some beef ?
No problem . We also need bread , so I'll go to the baker's . I'll get some vol au vents for Victor's birthday bash on Friday . We'll need balloons for that too .
Better visit the supermarket then . We'll need some other things for the party . Get some vanilla ice cream , some butter and some vinegar and twelve bottles of beer .
Okay . The library's beside the baker's . I'd better take back the videos we borrowed last week . They're overdue .
I'll see you later then .
Dad , do you know where Mom is ?
I think she is in her room putting a little something together for you to take to school with you .
She'd better not start crying like she usually does .
I know , but she is going to miss you something awful . Have I told you how proud I am of you ?
Dad , now don't you go getting mush on me .
I mean it . You have really shown us that you are prepared to take on the adult world .
That means a lot to me Dad . Thanks .
Have you made up your mind about not going back to your hometown after graduation ? Where else would you go ?
I would try to land a job in Beijing . I just want to go to one of the big cities .
why ?
many say more development opportunities can be found there .
that's true . Beijing is the political , economic and cultural center of the entire country .
and there're higher salaries there .
well , that's true , but living expenses are also higher in big cities .
I've considered that . I'll share an apartment with others to save the rent , and the cost of living won't be too much for only one person .
one person ? How about your girlfriend ?
oh , we had to break up because she didn't want to float around in Beijing . She insisted on working in her hometown and having a stable life .
sorry to hear that . It seems you have sacrificed a lot to work away from home .
sure have . I want to offer my parents a better life ; so , I'll have to work very hard .
Can I bring you anything else ?
No , thank you . Just the check .
Let me get this .
No , it is my treat .
Are you sure ?
Yes , I owed you for last time .
May I try this on ?
Sure . The color is perfect for you .
What material is it made of ?
It's made of cotton .
Happy Mother's Day , Mom !
Thanks ! These are beautiful . You shouldn't have !
Of course I should have ! You certainly deserve them ! You put up with all of us .
Bill , Happy Halloween !
Happy Halloween ! What creature are you going to dress up as ?
I will dress up as a vampire with big fangs .
May I have a look at your costume ?
Sure . Wait a moment . ( Several minutes later ) Here you are .
I like your black clothes and your fangs are cool .
I will bite many beautiful girls on the neck tonight . Maybe I will suck their blood .
What happened to your car ?
A tow truck was towing my car and put all those dents in my car .
Are they going to pay you for the damages ?
They're saying it was already there .
What the hell . That doesn't make sense . What are you going to do ?
I have to go to court . A cop was there so he can prove that the damage wasn't there .
That sucks . I'd be pissed if that happened to me .
I got an estimate and it's four thousand dollars .
Oh my gosh . Damn ... screw the court , I would burn down their store .
John , I ' d like you to meet Charles Brown , our new manager at the airport .
Yes , certainly . How can I recognize him ?
He is short , well-built , and he ' s got light blond hair .
Is there anything else ?
He has a mustache , if I remember correctly , and a light complexion .
How old is he ?
He is in his late thirties .
Well . I shouldn ' t have any trouble recognizing him . What time does his flight arrive ?
I need to purchase some business cards .
No problem . How many are you thinking about ?
I think 2,000 would be fine .
If you'll just fill out this form , please .
I want the new cards to be exactly like this card .
We can do that very easily .
... Okay , I'm done . Here's the form and my old card .
Great . Your order will take only one week .
You know , I think it would be better if I could pick it up in three days .
What happened to John ?
Welcome to Lincoln Bank . What can I help you with , Sir ?
I'm not sure if I'm at the right counter , but I need some advice on mortgages , can you help me ?
Unfortunately , no , I can't . But our specialist can . Please take a seat and our Mortgage Adviser will come out to see you .
A specialist ? That's excellent , thanks .
No problem , Sir . He'll be with you in just a minute . Could I get you something to drink while you are waiting ?
Shall we buy ?
It really depends on you .
But if you were me ?
Hello , may I help you ?
Yes , I'd like to have this parcel delivered to Shanghai .
Oh , we only take care of mail . For parcels , you can go to the next window .
Thanks ! ... Hello , I have a parcel to deliver .
Where do you need it to be delivered to ?
I want to post it to Shanghai .
OK , please fill out this form .
Sure , what's the postcode of Shanghai ?
Wait a moment , let me check it out for you . It's 200085 .
Thanks , here you go . What's the postage , please ?
Hold on , let me put it on the scale . It weighs up to 10kg and that will be 30 Yuan , please .
Hi , how are you doing ?
I'm fine . How about yourself ?
I'm pretty good . Thanks for asking .
No problem . So how have you been ?
I've been great . What about you ?
I've been good . I'm in school right now .
What school do you go to ?
I go to PCC .
Do you like it there ?
It's okay . It's a really big campus .
Good luck with school .
Hi , I haven't seen you in a while .
Yes , it has been a long time !
How long has it been since we last saw each other ?
I think that we last saw each other two years ago .
What have you been doing for the past two years ?
I have been going to graduate school at USC .
What are you majoring in ?
I am studying international communications .
You should easily be able to find a job with that major .
Good morning . May I help you ?
I'd like to rent a car , please .
Okay . Full-size , mid-size or compact , ma'am ?
Full-size , please . What's the rate ?
78 dollars a day with unlimited mileage .
And I'd like to have insurance just in case .
Is there an additional driver ?
No .
If you want full coverage insurance , it will be 8 dollars per day . It includes collision damage waiver and personal accident insurance .
All right . I'll take it .
Here is our brochure , ma'am . Err ... full-size ... OK . Please choose a model in this section .
How about this one ?
All right . How many days would you like to use it ?
Just one day .
May I see your driver's license and credit card please ?
Is the international driving licence fine ?
Lisa , are there family rules in this house ?
Well , I wouldn't call them rules , but there are some things that I expect my daughter to do .
Like what ?
Setting the table and doing the dishes .
Is there anything else ?
I also expect Cindy to tidy up her own room .
Her room is very neat and clean .
Yeah . She's a very responsible person .
Wonderland Travel , may I help you ?
Yes . I'm interested in your package tour to Paris . Could you tell me more about it ?
Certainly . The package includes air travel to and from Paris , accommodations , meals and transportation around the city .
How long is the tour ?
Could you call Mr . Jacob for me , Sara ? I need to go over some stuff with him .
Of course , Mr . Roberts . But , could you tell me his extension number again ? I haven ' t got all the numbers down yet .
Sure , it ' s 4-8- 7-2 . Don ' t worry . You ' re doing a fine job .
Is the environment a big issues in your country ? It is in mine .
It is in mine too . The biggest issue is water . The climate is dry and so water conservation is very important .
What methods do you use to conserve water ?
Water is rationed . We can only use a certain amount each month . It means that we cannot use some modern household items , like washing machines . They use too much water .
I see . I think the biggest environment problem in my country is air pollution .
Yes , I agree . The air here is much more polluted than in my country . Of course , my country is more agricultural and has much less industry .
We have reduced emission of air pollutants in recent years , but cars are still a major source of them . Factories have become cleaner as stricter environment pollution law have been introduced .
The problem is now on a truly global scale . I don ' t believe that any single country can do anything about it .
Hey , Wen ! Welcome to D . C . ! Glad you came out to visit !
Thanks for inviting me . Actually , I've never been anywhere with so many black people before . It's different .
Howard is eighty percent black . But there are whites , and even Asians here . Thankfully , it's also coed .
Great ! Is your , too ?
Sorry , nope . But the Alpha Phi Alpha's are throwing a party tonight .
Excuse me , Mr . Emory ?
Yes , Christine ?
Could you tell me where the copier is , please ?
Why didn ' t you call me last night ?
Because I went out .
Why didn ' t you phone me from a callboy ?
I didn ' t have any change .
Tell me why you didn ' t come to see me tonight then .
what did you do over the weekend ?
I went a global warming rally in London . It was fantastic to be around so many people who care about the environment .
do you think there's anything we can do to reverse the damage that's been done already ?
it might not be possible to fix the problems that we've created for ourselves , but there are lots of things we can do to prevent more damages from happening .
like what ?
well , we can use public transport instead of taking our cars for a start .
what else can we do to protect the environment ?
if you do have to drive , you should make sure that your car runs on unleaded petrol . Also , your home should use sources of renewable energy .
how about recycling ? Does that actually help ?
yes . You should take your glass , paper , plastic , cardboard , and tin cans to a recycling center .
what do you think is the biggest worry for our future ?
I think that the issue of greatest concern is having enough sources of clean water for everyone .
I had no idea you were such as environmentalist before !
I want to improve my handwriting , and I've practiced it for several weeks , but nothing happened . You see , my handwriting is still bad .
Oh , come on . You know it's a long process , you have to be patient .
I know it , but I don't know when I can make it better .
A , whatever you do , the most important is perseverance . So you have to hang on there , the longer , the better . Then some day , you will find you've already made a lot of progress .
Yeah , you are right . I must stop complaining and stick to it every day .
How many people are in your family ?
As you know , china has a single-child policy . Therefore , there ' s just my husband , my daughter and I . What about in your family ?
I have one daughter and one son . Then there ' s my husband and I . What about your parents ? Do they live with your family ?
Not anymore . They live with my brother now . and yours ?
My parents live by themselves now . When they get older , they ' ll probably go to a retirement home . Do you just have one brother ?
No , I have two older brothers and one younger sister . What about you ?
I also grew up in a big family . I have one older brother and three younger sisters .
How long have you been married ?
About seven years now . and you ?
I ' Ve been married for about five years . What do you think about divorce ?
It ' s becoming more and more common . However , I don ' t ever want to get divorced myself ! What about you ?
If my husband cheated on me or treated me badly , I would get a divorce .
If that happens , maybe you could marry my brother and we could become in-laws !
( ha ha ) I ' ll keep that in mind , but don ' t tell my husband .
I'd like to have the film developed .
For color prints ?
Yes . When can I get it back ? I can't wait to see the photos .
About three days .
Fine , I'd like two enlargements from this negative .
Excuse me , I ' m sorry to trouble you . My name is Susan Ransom , and I have placed several orders with you company .
Yes , Mr . Ransom ? This is Karl Miller . How may I help you ?
Well , I wonder if you could track an order I placed with you last month . It hasn ' t arrived yet .
I hear that you have been promoted . Congratulations on your promotion !
Thank you , but I hate having to leave here and working abroad .
When are you going ?
Hey , John ! I haven ' t seen you in ages ! What ' s new ? What have you been up to ?
Pete ! Nice to see you Well , on top the norm , you know , wife and kids and work , I ' Ve actually gotten into doing some trading .
Trading ? You , big guy ? What are you trading ?
Currencies .
Currencies ? As in Euros , Dollars , Pounds and Rupees ?
It ' s called Forex . Foreign Exchange . The great thing about it is that I don ' t have to invest a huge amount . I put in a margin deposit and then I can buy and sell up to 100 times that much !
I don ' t understand . You ' re buying and selling money ?
You got it ! Just last night I made USD 150 !
Last night ?
Yeah ! It ' s a 24 hour market ! I had bought some RIB earlier at a low asking price but last night it appreciated drastically so I made a split second decision and sold all my RIB at an amazing bid ! I '
Wow , Is winter always this cold in Taiwan ?
Not really . It's much warmer usually . Your are not used to cold weather ?
No , I am from south California . This is my first real winter .
Well , You'd better get some more warm clothes .
What's the temperature today anyway ?
I'll be checking out of the hotel in about 30 minutes .
Thirty minutes or 30 seconds , sir , it doesn't matter , I'm ready for you .
Great ! As you know , however , the day in New York has hardly begun .
There's nothing like getting an early start , sir .
What can I do with my baggage while I visit a few more tourist spots ?
You can leave your baggage in our storage space , with a deposit .
Isn't my baggage enough of a deposit ?
I wish it was , but it isn't . They will still want a credit card .
It's always something , isn't it ? Let me think about this for a second .
Have you heard that new song by the Beastie Boys ?
Why do you listen to rap ?
It's not much different from that heavy metal music you like so much .
Heavy metal music is a lot different from rap music . You can dance to heavy metal .
Hey , you can dance to rap music !
An interesting meeting , isn't it ?
Yes , very . I thought the last speaker was especially good .
Let me introduce myself , by the way , my name is Dick Brown .
How do you do ? I'm Mary Green .
Sorry , what was your last name again ?
Green , G-R-E-E-N , but just call me Mary .
OK . I'm Dick .
Something wrong ?
Yes . My car is having problems .
What's wrong ?
It won't start .
Do you want me to take a look ?
No , thank you . I think I can handle it .
Well , if you change your mind , let me know .
I will . Thanks . That's sweet of you .
No problem .
I might need some tools though . Do you know where I can get some ?
Sure . I have all kinds of tools . Just ask . I ' ll be happy to get them for you .
Thanks . That would be very helpful .
Anything for you . Seriously , I don ' t mind helping .
Hi . Bob ! We've been working hard at our lessons for a fortnight . So why don't we take it easy this weekend ?
Okay ! What do you suggest ?
How about seeing a play ? I hear Hamlet is on at the National Theater .
Is that so ? Why not ?
( looking at a newspaper ) Oh , dear me ! There's no performance at the National theater this weekend . So we have to go to cinema instead .
What's on ?
Let me see .. um . Gone With the Wind . It is on at six cinemas on Saturday night .
That sounds interesting . Which is the nearest ?
Ah . The Royal , I think .
What time does it start ?
Why don't we go to the 7:30 show ? It is convenient to us , I think .
But we won't have enough time for dinner .
Do you want to go to the earlier or the later show ?
Ah ... I fancy going to the later show .
Then , there's a 9:30 show .
That's Okay , I think .
Mr . Clinton , it's nice to see you again .
Nice to see you again , too . Peter . How's your family ?
Very well . How's Mrs . Clinton ?
May I help you ?
Yes , I would like to check in .
Do you have a reservation ?
Yes , my name is Carol Tiang . That's spelled J - I - A - N - G .
I'm sorry , Ma'am . I can't find anything under that name . Do you have your confirmation number ?
No , I don't have it with me . But I know I have a reservation . My husband made it for me last month .
Well , let me look again . How do you spell your first name , Ma'am ?
C - A - R - O - L . Carol .
I don't find a Carol in the computer for today . I have a Carol Larson here . But that reservation is for next Monday .
No , that's not me . My name is Tiang , not Larson . My husband reserved for me .
Are you sure he used your name , Ma'am ? Maybe he reserved under his name .
His name is Lin , L - I - N .
I'm sorry . I have nothing here .
In my opinion , it may be necessary to charge for participation .
I'm not sure if that would be wise .
Then what is your opinion ?
Good morning , I want a room tonight .
Single or double ?
Single , please .
Do you have a reservation ?
Yes . I made a reservation in shanghai .
Then I believe you have a confirmation slip .
Yeah . Let me see . Is this the one you want ?
That ' s it . What ' s your name . please ?
Wu Mei . That ' s my name .
Just a moment , please . Yes , you have a room reservation for you .
Is this room with a bath room ?
Yes , it ' s .
Can you give me a quiet room ?
It ' s a inside room on the eight floor .
What ' s the room rate ?
Eighty dollars a day . How long do you plan to stay Mrs Wu ?
Three nights I scheduled .
Do you sign the register , please ?
Is that right ?
Thank you , Mrs Wu .
Your room Number is 827 . The bail-boy will take your bags and show you to your room .
Hello , Lincoln Bank . Kristy speaking , how may I help you today ?
Hello , Kristy . Could I speak to the department that deals with credit card applications , please ?
I can deal with that , Sir . Are you interested in our personal or corporate card ?
The personal card , please . Is it possible to take care of this over the phone ?
I'm sorry , Sir , but you will need to come in to your local branch to deal with the application procedure . Come in and fill out an application form and let us have a duplicate of your ID card . You'll also need a copy of your guarantor's and he or she will need to sign the form , too .
OK ... and what deposit do I need ? I mean , is there a minimum deposit ?
You'll need to deposit 1,500 RIB initially . There will also be some small additional charges for this service .
That's no problem . How long will the whole thing take ? A week ? 10 days ?
It should all be sorted out within 5 working days after receipt of the required documents .
if you can choose , will you marry a foreigner or a Chinese ?
why ? Did tom pop the question ?
not yet . But I wonder if I can get my parents ' consent .
let me guess , your parents want you to marry a Chinese man , right ?
you are right . It is giving me a real headache . I feel like I ' m between a rock and a hard place .
I used to have the same problem when I was with my ex .
oh , how did you deal with it ?
I just let it go and continued dating with my Korean boyfriend . But finally we broke up .
oh , it ' s a pity . What was the matter ?
simple . We had personality clashes and there were too many cultural differences .
like what ?
he hoped to live in the Korean way and asked me to give up working and stay at home to take care of the family .
Oh , I see . In their culture women should put family first .
yes , he said it would be batter for me and for the whole family . But I simply can not quit working .
so that's why it ' s hard to have a happy marriage with a foreigner .
Excuse me , ma'am , can I help you find anything ?
Yes , I would like to buy a pair of dress shoes .
What size do you wear ?
Ten and a half .
How about this pair ?
No , I don't like black . What have you got in brown ?
How about these ?
Oh , Lord , no . Those are ugly . What else do you have ?
Well , there's this pair .
What can I do for you today ?
Can I sign up for some classes today ?
Which classes ?
I would like to take a driver's course .
Would you like to make an appointment ?
Why do I need an appointment ?
You need to sign the paperwork .
Can I do that right now ?
When can you come in ?
How about 9 o'clock tomorrow morning ?
I'll schedule you for then .
Merry Christmas ! Let ' s paint the town red .
we'd like to rent a flat near the university .
are you looking for somewhere for two people ?
yes , we are . obviously , we'd like something as cheap as possible . we've heard that there are places for 80 to 100 pounds a month .
yes , there are several place available in that price range near the university . do you have any other requirements ?
net really , no . we'd preferably like to live in a quiet street .
how many rooms do you need in the flat ?
we'll need two bedrooms . the kitchen and dining room can be separate or combined .
ok . i've got a list of place that fit your requirements . let's just go through them . the first on the list costs 80 pounds a month , but it's on a noisy street and it's a little far from t
how far away is it from the campus ?
it's about two miles away . that might be a little far to walk . here's one that's about half a mile from the campus . the cost is 100 pounds a month and it's on a small street , just off a
that sounds ideal . can we go to have a look at it ? we'd like to see it before making a final decision .
of course . i'm not very busy at the moment . if you can wait for about 15 or 20 minutes . i can take you there .
I'd like to reconfirm my plane reservation .
What flight are you taking ?
Flight 201 .
And what's your name ?
Anderson .
Everything is in order . Please check in at the airport an hour before flight time .
Your house is too small . Why not buy a big one .
I do wish I could afford one .
You can get a loan from the bank . You know LPF program provides low cost loans for participants home purchases .
The last thing I want to see is to lose face before my friends .
That ' s really unbearable .
But you know , things cannot always go as you expect .
Just remember . The main thing right now is to make sure Stars . com is happy .
Right . You're right . But she's just evil . Someone should drive a stake through her heart .
Elvin , please . Can I count on you to keep your cool for a week , or not ?
I'm OK . I'll be fine . I'v cool . I'm cold . I'm like ice . She won't know what hit her .
Can I use your laptop for a while ?
Sure , go ahead .
Oh , isn't your computer Wi-Fi capable ?
Yes , it is . You want go online ? there are no wi-fi hotspots around .
Oh my , no internet access is killing me .
Can't you wait till you get home ? then you can surf the internet using the broadband , wireless connection or whatever you like .
No , I'm not feeling myself . I just want to check my emails , visit my favorite websites and chat with my friends .
Now I see , you must be suffering from discomgoogolation .
What does that mean ? there's nothing wrong with me .
Well , the term ' discomgoogolation ' comes from ' discombobulate ' and ' google ' . Because floods of information are just a mouse click away , net users are very likely to become addicted to the web .
That's alright . I just can't bear losing track of all the latest information . It almost drives me crazy .
Have you got any hobbies ?
Yes . I'm fond of playing the chess and I'm very keen on playing cards .
Which is easier to learn ?
Okay , well I ' m sure you have a number of questions to ask me regarding the position .
Yes , well Miss Childs did give mean overview of the position over the phone , but there were some details I ' d like to clarify .
Well feel free to ask me anything , and I ' ll try to fill in the details .
Could I first ask about the remuneration package ?
Yes , of course . That's quite an important point , isn ' t it ? As a junior sub editor we offer a starting salary of 150,000 HK dollars per annum . This doesn ' t include a generous housing allowance al
I understand . And are there other bonuses included ?
Well , apart from full health insurance we do offer a company staff bonus scheme linked to readership numbers . But we could go through all the details of that at a later date .
Well , Mr . Parsons , I am flexible when it comes to salary . The opportunity to work in Hong Kong for you is the most important thing for me .
I feel very miserable . I took the death of my wife very hard , you know .
Cheer up ! Let bygones be bygones .
I ' Ve tried it , not a chance .
I'm famished ! Let's get some grub !
I'm in the mood for some chips and salsa .
Me , too ! The chips here are so light and crispy .
And they have tangy , freshly-made salsa , too . My mouth is watering already !
I'll go get the chips . What do you want to drink ?
I need to talk to you about something .
What did you need to talk about ?
I have some questions about my lease .
Like what ?
Exactly how long is my lease for ?
Your lease will be up in three years .
What will happen if I move out before then ?
If you move out before then , you will not get your deductible .
I don ' t understand .
Because our contract says that you will live here for three years .
Okay , I think that I understand .
I like chess better than xiangqi . And you ?
For my part , xiangqi . Maybe it's because my girlfriend is Chinese .
I think chess is more reasonable . You see , each side has eight pawns , a larger number than that of the soldiers in xiangqi . A true battle should be like that . Soldiers should outnumber the commanders .
Quite right . And unlike the soldiers in xiangqi , the pawns in chess can promote once they reach the furthest rank . It is very agreeable to grant merits to people with good performance .
Correct ! Another contrast is the rules for the general and the king . It seems the general or marshal in xiangqi is much too incompetent . They are required to stay in the palace , waiting to be checked and fleeing for life under the cover of the guards . Look at the king in chess , he is much more capable .
Yeah , and though the king in chess doesn't have bodyguards , he has a queen who is the most powerful piece . I think this demonstrates the relatively higher social status of aristocratic women in medieval Europe than in China .
There's another distinctive contrast . Both board games use a total of 32 pieces , but xiangqi is played on a 9 - by - 9 board , bigger than the 8 - by - 8 board used in chess .
You mean , xiangqi pieces are allowed a larger space in which to move around ?
Which social problem do you think the government needs to concentrate on most ?
I think housing is a big problem . There are thousands of homeless people on the streets .
How would you solve the problem ?
I have a good idea to solve it . The government could provide some money for homeless people to build their own homes .
It would probably be very expensive .
I think the government can afford it . Besides , there are many advantages . Homeless people would find it easier to get jobs if they had an address . They would learn some useful skill for finding jobs i
It ' s not a bad idea . I think education is the biggest problem at the moment . Schools don ' t seem to have enough money to educate kids properly .
If we are to invest more money to education , we will need to raise taxes . That wouldn ' t be popular with voters .
Most voters what everything both ways . They want the government to pay for lots of things , but without increasing taxes .
The government should show that it is using money efficiently . Sometimes you hear about how the government has wasted money on a project .
I went bungee jumping yesterday . It was so exciting .
Do you really enjoy such dangerous sports ?
Yes , They are great fun and very challenging , too . Some day I'll want to try deep-sea diving and rock-climbing , too .
You are a real fan of extreme sports .
Would you please bring us the check ?
Sure , here you are . It comes to $ 84 .
Does that include the service charge ?
No . sir , we charge separately .
Hello . Is there a room available tonight ?
What kind of room do you have in mind ?
I ' d like a twin room , please .
Hold on , please . I'm afraid we're fully booked . The only room available at the moment is a suite .
Ouch ! I'm hurt .
Are you all right ?
Yes . I'm OK . I just had a tumble . No big deal .
Good . You scared me .
Sorry . Can you please help me up ! I have trouble standing up by myself with the skis on .
Sure . Is this your first time skiing ?
How was your morning jog ?
Very good . I feel quite refreshed now ! You should come with me sometime - exercise is good for you !
To be honest , I ' d rather watch television ! Where did you go ?
I just ran alongside the main road .
Oh you ought to go to the park next time . They have a route for joggers there .
Oh ok , I ' ll try that tomorrow . It ' ll probably be better than fighting with the traffic ! Go on , why don ' t you come along ?
I want to change rooms . In fact , I want a refund for tonight !
And the problem is , sir ?
Cockroaches have taken over my room !
My apologies , sir . We'll give you a new room and refund the value of your current room .
Thank you . I want to continue to be able to recommend this hotel to others .
I'm looking for some black pumps to go with my evening gown . Could you show me what you have ?
Sure , we have several different styles you may choose . How high of a heel do you want ?
Not to high , maybe an inch or an inch in the half would be the best .
In that case , I might have just the pair for you . Look at these , they were made in Italy , the leather is very soft , so your toes will not get pinched . You can tell just by looking at it that it was superbly made .
Those are beautiful . Do you have any in a size six ?
Yes , we do , we also have this same style in dark blue and red .
No , thank you . I'm just looking for a black pair .
May I see your passport please ?
Here is my passport . And this is the declaration form .
What is the purpose of your visit to the United States ?
Business . I have a trade convention I'm attending in Chicago .
This visa is good for two weeks . Do you intend to stay longer than that ?
No . I will fly back twelve days from now .
And you will do some traveling while you are here ?
Yes , I want to spend a couple days in New York . I have friends there I will visit .
What do you have in the bag , Mr . Lee ?
Just my cameras , my clothes , and some books .
You're not carrying any food with you today ?
No .
Okay , Mr . Lee . This is just a routine check . Would you mind opening the bag for me ?
Hello , this is ABC Corporation . May I help you ?
Yes , I ' m enquiring about your advertisement for a sales manager in today ' s newspaper . Is this position still open ?
Yes , but do you have any experiences as a sales manager ?
Yes , I have a lot of previous experiences in sales . I worked in sales departments for two companies since I finished my university .
That sounds fine . Please give me your name and phone numbers . I ' ll set up an appointment for an interview for you . It will most likely be in a couple of days . Is it all right for you ?
Yes , my name is Brian and my phone number is 5294870 .
Room service , can I help you ?
Yes . This is Barbara in room 209 . I ' d like to order breakfast , please .
What would you like to order ?
Two slices of whole wheat bread and one cup of coffee .
Okay . I ' ll have them brought to your room right away .
This is the last of the milk .
I know . I intend to go to the store today .
Would you get some of that new cereal we saw advertised on TV ?
Which one ?
You know ... the one with the silly ad about how vitamins jump up and down .
Oh , you mean ' KIKES ' ?
Yeah . That's the one .
Who wants to go first ? Allen ?
Uh ... I mostly just like to listen . You're the groom . Why don't you go first ?
OK . Put on something by the Backstreet Boys !
How about " As long as You Love Me " ! You can pretend you're singing it to your fiancee Brooke !
The Smiths are arriving at our city tomorrow . Can you draw up a schedule for them ? If they want to make any changes , minor changes can then be made .
Is there anything special they would like to do ?
They would like to visit our factory and have a look at the new type computer products . Besides , they will introduce their technique in computer manufacturing .
That can easily be arranged . I will arrange a comfortable meeting room for them . Anything else ?
They would also like to have a meeting with our designers . And this time , their visit to our company will lay the basement for our cooperation , so you need to pay more attention .
I will set it up .
Now that you'recommending such enormous fees , producers , directors , movie-makers must see you in a completely different light .
Yeah .
Then the standard that you set yourself originally must have changed .
Well , if that's the case , I don't mind breaking the image that they might have or the standards that they have . I can only do what I know , and live how I've lived all my life , because I'm a fairly stubborn person .
It seems to me that now you're famous . You've got to go out and be seen at the right places and go to the right parties .
I don't go to parties . The parties I go to are the barbecues I have in my house . Being seen in the right places is something that I don't believe in . I don't believe in going to events just for the sake I of being seen .
Then fans don't see you much in public places .
Yes . I have a very low-key life ; I have a great life . I love what I do and I love how I spend my time , which isn't in a public place .
A lot of people compare you to Julia Roberts . I wondered if there was anyone that you compare yourself to in Hollywood , that you've watched and thought , ' Well , they've got something I could use a little bit or could learn a little bit about . '
What kind of person do you think you are ?
Well , I am always energetic and enthusiastic . That's my strongest personality .
What are your strengths and weaknesses ?
Em , as I have said , I'm diligent and industrious . On the other hand , sometimes I'm too hard-working and I put myself under too much pressure to make things perfect .
What qualities would you expect of persons working as a team ?
To work in a team , in my opinion , two characteristics are necessary for a person . That is , the person must be cooperative and aggressive .
How do you spend your leisure time ?
I like playing games and having sports . They are my favourite hobbies .
So , what kind of sport do you like most ?
Well , I can ' t believe your uncle and aunt came to stay with us for a week , and they did not even call us in advance .
John , they are old-fashioned people from the Chinese countryside . That ' s their custom .
I know , but it is hard for me to get used to your relatives coming to visit us , and without warning .
Don ' t your relatives visit other relatives ?
Yes , but Americans never visit without calling in advance , and they almost never stay overnight .
I think that maybe Chinese families are closer than your families .
Hello , Alice . Would you like to go to the temple fair with me ?
Temple fair ?
Yes . The ancient custom of holding temple fairs is to offer sacrifices to the god of the earth , and they have developed into a festival filled with food , performances and games now .
Sounds interesting !
Absolutely , I love temple fairs . Beijing has several temple fairs recently . They are different from each other to some extent , but also have a lot in common .
I just can't wait to see them . Which one do you choose today ?
What about Tianqiao Temple Fair ? A variety of opera performances , acrobatics shows , and food will dazzle you .
Great ! Do you know how to get there ?
Of course .
Would you please explain for me what a business contract implies ?
A contract is an agreement which is binding on both parties mutually . A contract might be formal or informal , oral or written . An implemented contract is one which has been fully executed by both sides ; an executive contract is one which is going to be performed . They are enforceable by laws and any party who defaults the contract may be sued and forced to make compensation .
What are the purposes of contract ?
In an ordinary contract , the objective of a contract might be relatively simple , indicating the description of commodity , price , quantity , terms of payment and etc .
When we draft a contract , which points should we pay special attention to ?
Has your family lived here for long ?
Five and a half years . We moved here on the first of November .
You have a fantastic view .
Yes . I love living here .
Look ! You can see the village way down in the valley .
Hello , this is Francis .
Hi , this is Monica . I was wondering when we can work on this financial report .
Today , I am busy all day long .
Shall I see you on Friday morning ?
That ' s not good for me at all . It ' ll have to be another time .
We must find some time to read report .
I know . I am available from 1 PM to 4 PM on Friday afternoon .
That ' s all right . Then see you on Friday afternoon .
Mark . Where have you been ? I ' Ve been calling you all morning .
I ' Ve been playing computer games .
What ? So you blew me off yesterday and today over a stupid video game ? What game is so important that you have no time for me anymore ? What are you playing ?
It ' s called Counter Strike . It ' s a first person shooter game . It ' s awesome . It ' s a multi player game where you can go online and compete against players from all over the world .
You ' Ve been wasting your time on this ? I can ' t believe it ! It doesn ' t even look fun or challenging !
My laptop is on my bed . If you think it ' s so easy then get on line and try to beat me .
Fine !
Damp it ! How are you killing me with a single shot ? It ' s not fair ! I don ' t want to play anymore ! Let ' s go get something to eat .
Caroline Menzies speaking .
Could I speak to Diana Curzon ?
I'm afraid she's in a meeting at the moment . Who's speaking ?
This is John Laing from Dantons .
Can I take a message , Mr Laing ?
Yes , please . I'm actually returning her call . So perhaps you could tell her that I called .
Certainly . Does she have your number ?
She must have , but let me give it to you anyway . It's 01705 455623 .
01705 ...
455623 .
455623 .
That's right .
OK . I'll make sure she gets the message .
Hi , Lilly , it ' s so nice to see you again .
Hum , me too . This winter holiday was especially long . What have you done ?
Nothing special . I had a get-together with some schoolmates at the high school , visited the Internet and read a couple of books which I had been longing for . How about yours ?
Tom , aren ' t you a little too old to be trick-or - treating ?
What are you talking about ? Where is your Halloween spirit ? Didn ' t you ever dress up in a costume and go around the neighborhood trick-or-treating with your friends ?
Of course , I did , but when I was ten ! Trick - or-treating is for kids , plus , I ' m sure people will think you ' re a kidnapper or something , running around with kids NCP at night .
How time flies !
May and Danny have already grown up .
I can still remember our first date .
Look at that big tree over there .
Yeah , oh my god ! It's still there . We have our first date right on there .
Do you know that I fell in love with you at the first sight .
You were dull at that time .
But you agreed to go out with me at last .
He's too young for the job .
How do I set up an E-mail account ?
Oh , that's easy . Go to www . onxiu . cn . Now , click on the link with the picture of an envelope .
Which link ?
That one , the one that says Mail .
Oh , no . What did I do ? It's asking me for a password .
Don't worry . See where it says , New User ?
Yes .
Click on that .
Oh , I see .
My word , you do look ill !
I'm quite out of thoughts recently .
You seem to have something on mind . Promise me , go to see the doctor right now .
I'm worrying about my exam .
You're from New York , aren't you ?
Yes , that's right .
What do you suggest I should see in New York ?
Well , how about the Museum of Modern Art ?
No , I don't like museums . They ' re boring .
Why don't you go to see the Empire State Building ?
Good afternoon , Mr Meng ! It's nice to see you today . It's been a while , hasn't it ?
Hello , Miao Ping . Yes , it has . I've been in Saudi Arabia for the last 6 weeks on business . I did have a little time to relax in Dubai , though .
I envy you , Mr Meng ! What can I do for you today ?
I need to effect a payment under my L / C . Not the old one , the new one my Assistant came in and dealt with last week .
Right . Do you have the code for that one ?
It's DG193445782100 . Can you find it ?
Could you arrange me to see Doctor John tomorrow morning ?
I ' m afraid not . He will be not free until 11:30 .
How about 1:30 ?
Come on . Plenty of room upstairs . Fares please !
One to the beach . How much is it ?
One dollar ... I'm short of change this morning .
Sorry . I can wait a moment .
Good , here's your ticket and four dollars change .
Excuse me , would you get me some paper napkins ?
Sure , here you are .
Could you recommend some dessert ?
We have fruit cake , cream cake and chestnut cake .
Don't you have cheese ?
Good morning , madam .
Good morning .
May I help you ?
Yes , I want to change some money .
This way , please .
Thank you .
Thanks for lunch . It was delicious .
It's OK .
Next time lunch is on me .
Don't be silly .
I'm serious .
All right . Next time you will treat .
Doctor Lin's Office .
I need to make an appointment to see the doctor .
How about 2 o'clock this afternoon ?
I would like to ask for one day off next week . Do you think the manager will agree ? I know it is the busy time for our company , but I do have some important things to handle .
Well , it is hard to say . At least you need to come up with a good reason .
Actually , it is my mother ' s wedding . My parents divorced many years ago . Now she is ready to establish a new family . It is a special occasion . I've got to be there , right ?
Yes , you should be there . Go find the manager and ask . I think the manager will understand and approve you a day off . Don ' t forget to fill in the leave application form . It will be signed by the manager for approval .
What is your long term career plan you set for yourself ?
Can you be serious for a moment , we've been dating for 6 months now , I really like you . I'd like to take a relationship to the next level .
So what are you trying to say to me ?
It feels like you are not dedicate to our relationship . It seems like you treat it as a just casual dating .
How should I say it ?
I don't want to be like this . I think we should get step further .
It has only been 6 months , our relationship hasn't had a chance to maturate . We are still have some hurdle we have to jump over .
Like what ?
Last week I saw Brain kissing you on the cheek .
It was only the cheek .
That is ok , then ? Starts on the cheek ? pretty soon you french kiss in the back on his car .
Oh , that is ridiculous .
So is it ok if I kiss other women on the cheek ?
Definitely not .
Shall we for go out for a meal this evening ?
I don ' t really mind .
We can go to that new Chinese restaurant .
I suppose I could .
Come on , let ' s try it .
What do you think of the acting of the two main actors in the film ?
I consider the hero's acting is inferior to that of the heroine's . don't you agree ?
Do you mind if I get a lift in your car , please ?
I don ' t see any problem , only the car is a bit old .
Oh you ' re so kind !
Hello . Can I help you ?
Yes . I ' m here to apply for the job of director that your company posted yesterday . Is it still available ?
Yes . We ' ll close this position posting at the end of this month .
Great . Where can I get an application form ?
Go to the Human Resource Office , please . You can get it there .
Where is the Human Resource Office ?
It ' s on the first floor , Room 120 .
Thanks a lot .
Good luck .
Why are there so many people ?
It seems like a traffic accident .
And how will you be paying for your room , Ms White ?
By credit card .
Both rooms on the same card ?
Yes .
Your card number please ?
4434 1234 5678 9902 .
Double one , zero two ?
No , double nine zero two .
4434 1234 5678 9902 ?
That's right .
And the expiry date ?
Eleven , ...
Could you repeat that please ?
November this year .
Thank you . I've booked two rooms for Ms White and Mr Webber from Wednesday the 25th to Saturday the 28th of September .
Thank you .
You're welcome . We'll see you on the 25th , Ms White .
Thanks a lot . Goodbye .
Mm ... How do I get this ticket machine to work ?
Well first put your money in .
Ok , I ' Ve done that .
Then just press this button .
Oh it ' s printed the ticket already . Thank you very much .
Let's start to study how to use computers , Paubler . It ' s good to know that a computer has two major parts , the hardware and the software .
What's the hardware ?
The hardware of computer is basically all the concrete things you can touch with your hands and see with your eyes .
That's seems obvious enough . then what about the software ?
The software of computer is all the programmes inside the computer that allow you to use the computer to do things .
I see , actually the hardware is the easy part , I do want to study how to use the software .
Right you are , Paler , and since what you want to learn is how to use software , we should also learn to refer to the computer menus .
Whip me if I get below 80 marks out of 100 !
Take it easy , Jim . Your mother didn't mean it ! Need any help ?
Sandy . Do you have a minute ?
Yes , John . I ' m on my break . What ' s going on ?
Not much . I just wanted to see how you were . How ' s married life treating you ?
May I have an appointment with you tonight ?
Very sorry , I am occupied tonight . What about tomorrow night ?
OK . where and when ?
7:00 in my staying hotel .
Are you planning on studying abroad ?
Hello , Tom . How do you find the dinner of yesterday ?
Very good . That may be the most delicious food I have ever eaten .
It's nice of you to say so .
I really appreciate you for having invited me .
Don't mention it . You know , we ' re old friends .
Anyway , I owe you one . Are you free tonight ?
Yes . Why ?
I want to invite you to enjoy the food I cook .
Excuse me , can I order now , please ?
OK , what would you like ?
I'd like the lasagna , please .
Sure and which one would you like ?
Can I help you , ma'am .
Yes , will you keep our bags until 6 p . m . ?
Are you all our guests ?
Yes , we checked out just now .
Please fill in this form .
Is this all right ?
So you are leaving this evening . We keep your bags until 6 p . m . Here's your tag .
Good day ! What can we do for you ?
I'm considering buying a new car , the old one hasn't been running too well recently , and was wondering what kind of credit you can offer me .
Buying a new car is a big expense ; we understand that , so we have a variety of loans to suit your needs .
That's great . I'm looking to borrow quite a large sum , though .
With our Personal Automobile Consumer Loan , the borrower can borrow up to 80 % of the purchase price .
That's good news . The car I'm interested in is priced at 120,000 RIB , but I think I can get a bit of discount on that . I can afford to put up around 40,000 RIB myself .
That's great . You will need to make an initial down payment of 20 % , and then we can get going with this .
Anything else , sir ?
That's all for now . How much do I owe you ?
That'll be fifty-five dollars and twenty cents .
Can't you make it a little cheaper ?
Oh , no , sir . We already gave you a discount on each item .
We'd better have a brief talk about the loading port .
We are always willing to choose the big ports as the loading ports .
What's your unloading port , please ?
I feel terribly bored . I'm going to take a job .
Good .
Then I can buy my own car .
Splendid .
And pay for my own clothes .
Do you take a bus to and from work ?
Yeah , everyday . And there ' s only one choice . All the other buses are going the other direction .
Hmm . I have the same problem . When I leave work , it ' s always rush hour . So the buses are always crowded .
Oh , yeah , it ' s terrible . I will tell you the funniest thing I have seen in China . It ' s when so many people try to get onto one city bus , and the last guy is squeezed in so tight that the door is tightly pressed against his butt .
That sounds terrible the way you describe it . But you know , not long ago I really suffered on the bus .
What happened ? Were you having a hard time getting on a bus ?
You just can ' t imagine ! I waited for the first bus but it was too full , so I waited for the second , and it was still very crowded . Then I decided not to wait for the next one , and got on the second bus . It was so full that I had to stand on one foot ! No kidding !
Hmm . Good exercise , uh ?
Yeah , absolutely !
And it ' s so much fun . One day , the bodies were so tightly packed that some girl ' s behind was pressed against my front . I was afraid to put my hands down for fear of accidentally groping her .
You were so happy , weren ' t you ?
Excuse me , sir , this is the express check-out lane for people that have fifteen items or fewer . It looks like you have more than fifteen items there .
Oh , come on ! I have sixteen items ! Cut me some slack , will ya ?
Fine ! Please place your items on the belt and push your shopping cart through . Do you prefer paper or plastic ?
Plastic . I also have a couple of coupons .
No problem , I ' ll take those . Sir , these coupons expired yesterday .
Darn ! Oh , well . I guess it ' s just not my day . Thanks anyway .
Do you have a club card or will it be cash ?
Yeah I got a club card . Here you go .
Will this be debit or credit ?
Debit please . Also , could I get cash back ? Fifty dollars would be great .
What a nice photo you ' Ve taken !
I ' m flattered , but really anyone else could do it .
You have a real talent , Ellen !
I'm glad I brought my jacket on this trip .
Yes , I didn't know Washington , DC got so cold in winter .
What would you like to do today ?
I really think we should take a tour of the White House .
I thought we could go to some of the museums . Don ' t you want to see the museums ?
Of course . But today I feel like seeing the White House . We should see it first , because it's the most famous historical building here .
I don't agree . I think the Capitol building is the most famous . But okay . If you want to see the White House , we'll go see it . I'm just afraid it will be boring .
This is my first trip to Hong Kong , and I'd like to see some of the city's sights .
Will you be here long ?
Only three days on business so I won't have a long time .
There are many tourist attractions in Hong Kong .
Do you have some information on these ?
Usually cities have greater traffic problems .
Of course , there're too many people .
I hate the car columns on the road .
why are there still so many people overweight despite the current fitness craze ?
well , there are certain factors that effect people's size and weight .
what are they ?
one study said that low-income groups have a higher percentage of over-weight people than higher income families .
why ?
the survey said that the low , income groups eat more junk food on a daily basis .
that makes sense . Probably less time to make dinner and the junk food is cheaper .
and junk food contains lots of fat and oil . There is one final reason why so many people are fat .
what's that ?
nobody exercises anymore-not even kids ! The average american home has the TV on for 6 hours a day !
wow ! No wonder people are so fat . Say , Carl , looks like you could be doing a bit more exercising .
yeah , I guess so .
you should consider eating healthier food and getting some more exercise .
hey , I started a diet and lost 10 pounds .
so what happened ?
well , I quit and gained it back plus 5 pounds .
Ann , stop bugging Jess and help me order something new . Lattes are so passe these days .
Why don't you try an Americano ? Espresso with water .
Sounds a little weak .
Go with a hammerhead then-espresso mixed with drip coffee .
Sounds better , but I hope it doesn't inspire me to take a hammer to the client's head .
Hi , Bob , this is Mary .
Hello , Mary , where do you work ?
I work for an Internet company .
I'm going to Bihai Park . Is this the right bus , please ?
No , you're going the wrong way . You want a 103 from Beijing Zoo .
How can I get it , please ?
You get off at the next stop , cross the street , and you'll find the stop not far on the right hand side .
Could I have a transfer please ?
Here you are .
Good afternoon . Welcome to China . May I see your passport , customs and health declaration form ?
Yes , here you are .
Thank you . What's your occupation , Mr . Smith ?
I'm the general manager of the Far-East Industry Corporation .
You are here on business , aren't you ?
Yes , I have been invited by the East Import & Export Corporation of China for business talks .
I see . Do you have anything to declare ?
Yes , I have some foreign currency to declare .
Would you please fill out this currency declaration form ? It's a record of the foreign currency you have brough in .
Do you love me ?
I ' m very fond of you .
Yes , but do you love me ?
Why ? You mean a lot to me .
Why didn ' t you answer my question ?
What question ?
Do you love me ? come on , I ' m eager to hear .
You know that I care for you . I .. I ' m proud of you .
Don ' t cherish your words , dear .
Hi , are you Catherine ?
Yes , Jason , right ? Nice to meet you . Welcome to Taiwan .
Thanks , good to meet you , too .
You had a long flight , you must be tired .
Yes , and the food was horrible !
Oh , sorry to hear that . But , don worry ! Taiwan has plenty of great things to eat . First , lets get you to the hotel .
Great ! How will we be getting there ?
We ' re going to the movies . Will you join us ?
I ' m very sorry I can ' t .
Why not ?
I ' m afraid I have some business to attend to .
Then would you like to have lunch with us ?
I ' d love to but I have to help John with his math problems right now .
Would you like me to give you a lift ?
No , thanks . His home is not far and I can walk there .
Come on . It ' s no trouble at all .
It is really exciting news .
What news ?
You don ' t know ? The company is going to replace these old computers with the latest ones .
You know what we will get ?
We will all get a docking station on our own desk from which you can remove your laptop easily . And if you come back to office , you just reconnect your laptop with docking station .
What docking station ?
This is a kind of socket mounted to your desk . The socket has all the wire connections of the company line and all the other office automation equipments , like fax , copier , a screen , printer and scanner , and it will be very convenient .
Hi , Anna . I haven ' t seen you for ages . Where have you been ?
I ' Ve been away on holidays for sometime .
No wonder I haven ' t seen you recently . Where did you spend your holidays ?
I went with my husband . Our first stop was Bangkok . We stayed there for 5 days . Then we flew to Hong Kong , stopover for 3 days . Our last stop was China . We visited the Great Wall .
You must have a wonderful time .
Yes . We enjoyed ourselves very much . Have you traveled much , Luke ?
No , my wife doesn ' t like traveling . We haven ' t been traveling for more than ten years . The first time we traveled together was in 1978 when we just got married . We spent our honeymoon in the Alps .
How much is the fare ?
Three yuan .
Could you tell me how to use it ?
You put it in the slot at the turnstile and then push the turnstile to get into the platform .
Oh , I see . By the way , how can I get out of the platform after I get off the train ?
That's very easy . The exit is always open .
Thank you for your help .
I've been told you might have a vacant room .
Yes , I have a spare room .
Would it be okey to look at the room , now ?
Would you come here in twenty minutes ? We're right in the middle of dinner .
This apartment looks nice .
Yes , it has two bedrooms . That's convenient .
How much is the rents ?
2,500 yuan a month .
Do you carrying fresh fish ?
Yes we do . Check the meat department . There is a fish counter there too .
I already looked , but did not see anything .
Let me show you .
Thanks .
See , it's right over there .
Oh , gosh . I didn't see it .
This man looks very handsome . Is he married ?
Sure . He has already married , a father of two boys .
Oh , I can't believe it . He looks very young .
He took the picture when he was only 21 years old .
Thanks for offering to give me a lift . I'm looking forward to this party , but I didn't want to go alone .
Don't mention it . It's my pleasure . Have you been to one of these large , sit-down dinner parties since you got to New Haven ?
No , this is my first . Last week I went to a cookout 5 for new professors at Dean Barksdale's home . I took a taxi because I didn't want to be late . But I was the first one there .
I'll bet you were a little embarrassed .
You're right . The invitation said two to seven . I was there at two o'clock , but most people didn't arrive until three or four . They didn't start cooking until five o ' clock .
Cookouts often start slowly . A two o'clock start means you arrive any time after two .
Thanks for telling me this .
I was late getting back from the mall , but I'm hurrying .
Why are you in such a hurry ? They said , Dinner at eight , and it's only seven-fifteen . I don't want to be the first one there again .
Susan has been down recently . I saw her this morning , she looked terrible !
You have any idea why ?
She broke up with her boyfriend .
I heard her boyfriend is married .
She still loves him . That's why she feels upset . Her love is always hard and confusing ...
Then what about you ? How are you getting on with your boyfriend ?
Excuse me . I'm looking for Bluemingdails . Could you tell me how to get there ?
Sure . It's very close actually . You go straight down this road . Then you turn left , at the next junction .
Left the next junction . Ok .
Bluemingdails is on the corner of that block . You see it as you turn left . Seriously , You can't miss it . It ' s enormous .
Can you give me a hand with some things in the kitchen ? I don ' t think I can finish everything in time .
Ok , what do you want me to do ?
First of all , I need you to do the drying up . I ' m almost finished the washing up . I ' m going to clean the cooker when I finish .
Ok . I ' ll put the plates and cutlery away as I dry them . Where is the tea towel ? Oh , here it is .
We ' ll have this finished in no time with two if us working on it .
While you ' re cleaning the cooker , I ' ll wipe the worktop . That was a great meal , by the way .
Actually , it was just some leftovers from yesterday . I made far too much food to eat alone . I am glad you could come over to help me finish it .
My pleasure ! This tea towel ' s a little ragged . Do you have another one ?
Yes . Look in that drawer . I should throw the old one out .
Mom , I hate eating vegetables !
You don ' t have to eat them . I don ' t mind .
Thanks , Mom . Can I have dessert now ? I love chocolate cake .
No dessert for you unless you eat all of your vegetables .
But I don ' t like them . It ' s not fair .
You can have some fruits for dessert . If you eat an apple and a banana , I might let you have a small piece of chocolate cake .
Ok , actually I don ' t mind eating peas and carrots . But I hate broccoli and cauliflower .
I'll remember that for next time . You ' ll get extra peas and carrots , but no broccoli or cauliflower , ok ?
Can I help you , Madam ?
Yes , I'd like to exchange some US dollars into RIB .
How much would you like to exchange ?
What's the exchange rate for RIB ?
It's US 100 for RIB 802 today .
I'd like to exchange 3,000 .
Fill out this exchange memo , please .
Yes . Here you are .
Wait a second , please ... These are 24,060 RIB and the receipt , please check them .
All right , thank you so much , good-bye .
Are you still coming to my place for dinner tomorrow night ?
Of course . Is the dinner still on ?
Yes , I was just wondering how you and your roommate were planning on coming to my place .
We were planning on walking both ways since the weather is still nice .
That's what I thought you would do . Listen , I live in a bit of a rough neighborhood . It's just down the street from all the bars . You probably don't want to be walking around after dark .
It can't be that bad .
I wish it wasn't , but there is actually a lot of crime and prostitution around here .
Really ? I never would have guessed . The criminals must only come out in the evenings , because I've never noticed anything strange when I've been at your house in the daytime .
Do me a favor , and take a taxi . It'd make me feel a lot better .
Ok , we will . How do you get around in the evenings ?
When I first moved in , I walked everywhere . But within a week , I had my purse stolen -- just a block away from the police station ! Now , I always take public transportation .
Has anything else happened to you ?
Nothing else has happened to me , but I have seen quite a few fights on the streets after the bars close .
What are our areas for growth ? What sectors do you see the most potential in ? If we are going to pull our sales numbers up and develop the brand , we got to work across the board .
It's not just spreading out to new markets that we have to address . I think we'd better first pay attention to developing our brand in the markets we already have . We ' Ve reached the awareness level , but we haven't established customer loyalty . People know who we are , but they still don't trust in our brand .
I really want to take a nap . I feel very sleepy today .
What ' s the matter ? Didn ' t you get enough sleep last night ?
I fell asleep very late . It was almost two o ' clock in the morning when I finally fell asleep .
Are you worried about something ? Why couldn ' t you sleep ?
You know how it is when you ' re in a strange country . Everything is new , and you get tired and nervous sometimes . Then you worry about your family , about conditions back home , about your courses , about your money , about everything . I tried to fall asleep but I just had too much on my mind .
Well , take it easy . Things will look better tomorrow . Maybe you should try exercising or a hot bath to help you relax .
Hey , Joshua ! Is Anny coming with us ?
Yes , why ?
Nothing . I'm just asking .
Just asking ? But why is your face burning like mad ? Aha , someone has a crush on Anny , doesn't he ?
Who has a crush ?
Come on , Josh , don't be such a chicken . If you like her , you've got to tell her . Maybe she likes you .
I'd totally die if she turned me down .
So am I on the right road to Piccadilly Circus ?
I think so , ' cause I remember the policeman told me this is the very way .
What did he say ?
Just head straight up the street about two blocks and then turn left .
What time does the next train to London leave ?
At 16:35 , from platform 8 .
Is it a direct train to London ?
No , you have to change trains at Birmingham .
I see . One ticket to London , please .
Single or return , sir ?
Single , please .
64 pounds , please .
Here you are .
Did you see that ?
No , I missed it .
How could you miss that ?
What did you do this weekend , Kate ?
Oh , Diane and I went for a drive in the country on Saturday .
That sounds nice . Where did you go ?
We drove to the lake and had a picnic . We had a great time ! How about you ? Did you do anything special ?
Not really . I just worked on my car all day .
That old thing ! Why don't you just buy a new one ?
What's your favorite kind of music ? Do you like pop music ?
I like almost all kinds of music . But I like country music best .
There was a concert country music last week .
I wish I had been there !
I like it , too . But sometimes I enjoy jazz and classical music .
Let me get the keys and we ' ll go to look at it .
Okay .
It ' s the one you like .
Wow ! It ' s really good for me , especially the living room . It is big enough to put all my stuff there . It ' s a deal ! I ' ll rent this one .
Okay . Now we need you to fill a form with your personal information . We need information like social insurance number ( Social security number in the US ) , your address , phone number , etc . We also need a security deposit of $ 200 . And you have to pay two months ' rent in advance for renting the first time . If there ' s nothing damaged , we ' ll give you back one month ' s rent when you move out . You ' ll be responsible for all the utilities . Do you want to sign a lease today ?
Sure !
Oh , one more thing I forgot . You must let us know two months in advance if you want to stop renting within the contract . Otherwise , you can ' t get your deposit back .
Okay . Thank you for your reminder .
You ' re welcome . Be sure to get the keys one day before you move in .
Can you offer me something a little cheaper ?
Well , let me see . What price range do you have in mind ?
I want to stay under $ 20 .
Good morning , sir . Can I see your boarding pass , please ?
Here you are .
Excuse me , sir . This is your passport .
Really ? Ugh ... Is there any difference ?
Yes . As a matter of fact , you can't board the plane without boarding pass .
Gee . I must have left it in my hotel room .
I'm sorry sir . I can't let you pass .
But when does the plane take off ?
Ugh , in about thirty minutes , sir .
Oh , my God ! What do I do now ? Bone head .
Calm down , sir . You are creating a commotion .
Is that me ?
Could be .
Good morning . My name's Pat Green .
Good morning . Mr . Green . My name is Helen . What can I do for you ?
I read in the poster that you're looking for a student to work as a language assistant .
Yes . Are you interested in the job ?
I think so . But before I apply , could you tell me more about the work ?
Have you eve worked with tape recorders before ?
I used cassette recorders a lot when I studied English in high school .
Good . There are many different kind of language labs , but ours is a small one . If you decide to take the job , I'll explain how to operate the system , Are you sure ?
How many hours would I work a day and what's the pay ?
Ten hours a week . From Monday to Friday , from 4 to 6 P . m . , and $ 150 a week .
OK , I'll take it .
The woman was beaten again . Why didn ' t she call the police .
Because it was her husband who beat her .
It is incredible .
Hey , Dora ! What kind of books do you like to read ?
I read everything I can get my hands on but I like love stories best . What do you think about the love stories ?
I hate to tell you this , but they are nothing but sob stories .
I don't think so . I like them . Then what's your favorite book ?
I'm fond of history books .
So your mom can stop nagging you now .
Trust me . She'll keep nagging . She thinks something will go wrong .
Don't tell me she's been listening to the fortune-teller again .
You guessed it . She says we have to get married on January 2nd , or we'll have bad luck .
The day we choose to get married could never be an unlucky day .
I don't know what to do about the people who live in the flat above me !
Why ? What are they like ?
They're incredibly selfish . They ' re always up until the wee hours of the night playing their music so loudly that I have to wear earplugs in order to fall asleep !
Have you ever talked to them about it ?
I tried to introduce myself to them when they moved in , but they were so arrogant that I didin't want to ever talk to them again !
What did they say ?
They both just talk about how great they are all the time .
They soud like the neighbours from hell !
They are ! Besides being loud and arrogant , they're also terrible gossips . They're always talking about everybody else in the apartment .
I thought you didn't talk to them much .
I don't , but they talk so loudly that I can hear what they're talking about from my bedroom - and it's not very nice .
What do the other people in your apartment think about them ?
Most of my other neighbours are scared of them .
Maybe you should think about moving .
I can't afford to move right now .
Well , perhaps you should have a party and try to get to know them better . Maybe once you get to know them , they'll turn out to be more sensitive .
I think you're being a bit optimistic . If you met them , you'd understand .
What courses did you major in ?
I took more than 10 subjects including Theoretical Economics , Political Economics , Western Economics , Statistics and so on . In addition to the courses of my major , I took minor courses too .
What courses did you minor in ?
Gucci , you look serious . I wish you ' d let your hair down .
Welcome to our bar !
What kind of wine do you offer ?
Here is the wine list .
Thanks .
What would you like ?
What do you recommend ?
What about cocktail ?
I'd like to try something typically Chinese .
I recommend Mao Tai , it's the best liquor in China .
OK . Let me try it .
Here you are , sir .
Will we drive to the seaside ?
Yes , it will take about four hours . We can leave about noon and get there by supper time .
Let me help pay for gas .
All right . There will be three of us going so we will each pay a third .
What other expenses will we have ?
Hi , Walter !
Hi , Sterling !
What do you think of our new teacher ?
Professor Wood ? I think he's a brilliant scientist .
You're got a point there . But do you think he's a little absent-minded ?
Come and meet our employees , Mr . Richards .
Thank you , Mr . Jackson .
This is Nicola Grey , and this is Claire Taylor .
How do you do ? Those women are very hard-working . What are their jobs ?
They ' re keyboard operators . This is Michael Baker , and this is Jeremy Short .
How do you do ? They aren ' t very busy ! What are their jobs ?
They ' re sales reps . They are very lazy .
Who is this young man ?
Excuse me . I lost my way . Could you tell me where the scholar cinema is , please ?
The Scholar ? Let me see . Oh ... yes , Of course I know . It ' s in the Lincoln Square .
Is that near here ?
Oh , yes . It ' s just a few minutes walk . Turn left at the traffic light , and you ' ll see it .
Honey , could you help me here a minute ?
Sure , sweetie . What are you doing ?
I want to put this curtain up .
OK . Why don't you just hold the ladder , and I'll put it up .
What kind of music do you like ?
I like popular music best .
Me too .
Who is your favorite singer ?
Qi In is .
Do you know this song ?
Yes , I like it very much .
Let's sing it together , shall we ?
Hey Jack . Are you excited about starting work ?
Yeah . I'm really looking forward to it .
What was more exciting , starting college or starting work ?
They're pretty similar , but in different ways . I really can't decide . How about you ?
For me , I think starting school was more exciting .
Does that mean work isn't that great ?
It's different for everyone , but because I knew school was going to be so much fun , I really got excited about it .
But work is a huge portion of our lives . I'm looking forward to making it fun .
That's a great attitude to have . I don't think you'll have any problems in the workforce .
Hi , I am looking for a woman named Mia .
I think I am who you are looking for . You have got to be Rubin .
That would be me !
Rubin ! Karen and Mike have spoken about you so often that I feel like I've met you before .
I hope that what they had to say was mostly good !
They only said wonderful things about you . You did a good job of finding me .
Finding the beautiful woman in a red dress next to the fountain wasn't all that hard .
Yes , I guess it was a choice of me or the pigeons !
I was hoping that we could take a walk down the street to my favorite cafe .
What are the pop groups that you like ?
Oh , there are so many good ones ! I loved the Spice Girls . They were so cool !
I agree ! I cried for a week when they broke up .
This is my favourite restaurant .
It looks very nice and the food looks delicious .
Yes , there might be some food you have never eaten before .
Really ?
Oh yes . Like this , for example . Have you ever eaten jellyfish before ?
No , I haven ' t . I have never eaten jellyfish before .
What about these ? Have you ever tried pig ' s brains ?
Sorry to trouble you . Can you tell me how to get to the City Bank ?
It's about two or there blocks away from here .
How long will it take if I walk ?
Excuse me , can you tell me how I can get to the snowboarding area ?
Take bus 12 and get off at the terminal station .
Thanks a lot .
Sam , we are hard up for the everyday expenses . When can you find a job .
I'm looking for it , but you see , the market is hard up for jobs , too .
What kind of account do you prefer ? Checking account or savings account ?
I would like to open a checking account .
Ok , please just fill out this form and show us your ID card .
How much is this shirt , please ?
It's 89 yuan .
Do you have it in a larger size ?
Hey , Gary , great to see you again . Please have a seat . So tell me , what seems to be the problem ?
Thanks , doc . I ' Ve got a really bad toothache ! I can ' t eat anything , and look , my face is all swollen . I think it might be my wisdom tooth .
Well , let ' s have a look . Open wide . Hmm ... this doesn ' t look good . Well , it looks like you have a cavity and your crown is loose . We ' ll need to put in a filling before it gets any worse , and the crown probably needs to be refitted . I ' m going to order some x-rays .
Is it gonna hurt ?
Hello ! Where can I buy an inexpensive cashmere sweater ?
Maybe you should look around for an outlet .
That is a wonderful idea .
Outlets have more reasonable prices .
Thank you for your help .
That is the most beautiful sunset !
Let's stop the car and enjoy it for a minute .
Here is a good place . Let's get out .
Wow . We don't get to see this in the city !
Mother Nature is quite an artist .
Look behind us at the mountains ! They're reflecting pink !
Amazing . The sun is almost gone and yet there is still color everywhere !
Hi ! I'm Hong lei . What's your name ?
Hello , Hong Lei . My name's Ricky .
Hi Ricky . Are you a new student here ?
Yes , I had my first lesson this morning . Are you a new student too ?
No , I've been here for six months .
Six months . That's a long time .
It's not so long really . What class are you in ? Intermediate or ... ?
Intermediate Three . And what about you ?
I'm in Advanced One . Who's your teacher ?
I can't remember her name , but she's got curly red hair .
Ah ! Does she wear glasses ?
Yes , I think so .
That's probably Anne Wallis .
Yes that's right . Do you know her ? Is she your teacher too ?
No . But she taught me last term . How long have you been here ?
Only a week .
Wow , not long . Where do you live ? With a family ?
Well , I'm staying at the YMCA at the moment . I'm looking for somewhere more permanent . Do you know of any good places ?
Yes . Actually my friend has a spare room in here apartment and she's looking for a flatmate . Would you like her phone number ?
Are you have a hand in locking into the case ?
Yes .
How do you feel about it ?
Have you ever played Making ?
Not really , but I know it is very popular a traditional Chinese gambling game .
Yes , some friends play it all day , all night , and sometimes a whole weekend . I tried to read about some basic rules online , but it is hard to understand . So I went to watch people play yesterday only to find I was even more confused . I think I have to work hard on those rules and more learning by doing . Practice makes the master .
Typical Francis , whether you are at work , or engaged in leisure time activities , you always show the same eagerness and curiosity to learn something new and improve yourself .
Did your meal meet with your approval ?
Our meal was absolutely perfect !
How about a dessert to top off that wonderful meal ?
Dessert sounds perfect , but I would like to split something with my friends .
On this evening's dessert list , we have chocolate mousse cake , homemade fresh strawberry shortcake , and a spicy rum apple crisp .
I think that the apple crisp would be wonderful .
One dessert will serve two , so would you like to split a second one ?
We would also like a piece of chocolate mousse cake . Could you bring us four dessert forks , please ?
How about some coffee and tea as well ?
We are all tea drinkers . Please bring us four teas .
I will prepare your desserts and have someone bring you your drinks right away .
Could I speak to the apartment manager ?
I am the apartment manager . How can I help you ?
I wanted to know if that apartment on Main Street is still for rent .
I haven't rented it out yet . Would you like to see it ?
Yes , I want to see it .
How about today at 6 p . m . ?
That time is okay with me .
Very good . We'll meet at 6 . Do you need directions ?
No , thank you . I go by there on my way to work .
If you're interested , you can fill out an application form .
That's a good idea . Do I need to bring anything myself ?
There are so many Chinese people in Vancouver .
What happened to that girl you were seeing ?
Oh Jackie ? We broke up last week .
That was a short relationship . You only started dating 2 months ago .
It was actually a long two months . She was a psycho .
What do you mean ?
She would be laughing one moment , and if I said something insensitive , she would start crying . I didn't want to deal with that .
She sounds very emotional .
She was a psycho , man . One time we were suppose to get together . I was waiting for her call , and when she finally called , she was screaming why I wasn't at her place .
Were you suppose to be there ?
I thought she was going to call when she was done shopping . It was a misunderstanding . She was literally screaming on the phone over this .
Ok . You're right . She's a psycho .
Morning , Madam . This is the window for Foreign Exchange Savings . How can I help you ?
I want to save some US dollars into my account .
That's fine . Is it a Time Deposit ?
Yes , that's what my husband advised me to do . But I'm not sure how long I should save for .
Well , we offer 5 grades as standard
Mmmm ... 2 years does seem like a long time . How about the interest if I save for 6 months ?
For 6 months we can offer you 0 . 59 % .
I want to have a complete relaxation this weekend .
You mean you want to stay at home ?
Yes , exactly .
Right Rebecca . Now I see that after graduating from University your first job was ...
For a local paper in York called the York Herald . Actually , I started with them as an intern in the beginning . I was really keen on getting some experience in the journalistic world , and this seemed like a good first step .
Certainly . And after your internship ?
They seemed impressed , and offered me a position as a junior local news reporter . I ended up staying two years there actually . I was in charge of the sports news section of the newspaper . I really enjoyed it there , and it really helped me build my skills .
Yes I see . But you decided to leave them in 2006 , right ?
Yes , that ' s right . My husband and I moved to London , and so I managed to find a position with a National newspaper based in London .
The London Weekly right ?
Hi , John Phillips ? I ' m Rose Green . I ' Ve been asked to handle your training and introduce a little bit of the company to you . It ' s nice to meet you .
It ' s nice to meet you , too , Ms . Green . This company seems so big right now ; I don ' t know how I ' ll ever get used to it .
After a week , you ' ll be running around here like a pro . Let me give you this list of departments first , next to each department is its location and the name of the manager .
Are you ready to order now , sir ?
Yes .
Would you like an appetizer ?
Yes . I'd like a crab cocktail .
Would you like some soup first ?
Very well .
What kind of soup would you like ?
I want egg soup .
Have you decided on anything ?
I'd like to have some meat .
How about stewed-fried steamed pork ?
No , thank you .
Are you interested in today's special ?
What is it ?
Twice cooked spicy pork slices .
OK . Let me try it .
Anything else ?
What's the matter ?
Which subway should I take to get to the East Side ?
Oh , you have to take the shuttle to Grand Central .
Which train is that ? Which platform does it leave from ?
Yeah . You don't need to rub it in .
And then she made the deal with MicroPower . Vince wanted to sell for fifteen million ...
Fifteen ? And Zina pushed them up to seventy-five ?
That's right . Vince still stops by her office every day to thank her .
Anyway , I'm still happy I left . I'm working as a freelancer now .
oh , the clothes here are so expensive ! No wonder there are few people .
Beauty costs , dear ! What do you think of this dress ? Do you think it suits me ?
yeah , it's lovely , but to be frank , it's not the most practical . You don't have many formal events in your calendar , do you ?
come on , you sound like my Mom . Look at that , it's beautiful !
when you buy clothes , you must think about the material , quality and price .
maybe you have a point .
make sure you buy what you need and your clothes can be worn for various occasions .
all right . How about this black shirt ? It can be worn for anything---a party , a job interview and even a funeral !
that's true , but you already have two back coats and one black sweater .
oh ! Hey , look , that's the same shirt Britney wore in her concert .
exactly ! Oh , my god ! I love Britney ! I'm going to get it .
why not try it on ?
it's just the right size--a perfect fit ! I'll take it . Oh , no , I'm a little short . Did you bring your credit card ?
yes .
I can't believe that .
What ?
I've never heard Mary cursed anybody . But I heard she cursed another driver when she drove me back home today .
Oh . Why did she do that ?
Why is the long face ?
I'm getting sick of work man . I can't take the political bull in the company any more .
Did you just get your review or something ?
Yeah , but that's not why I am upset . I just found out another guy got a promotion . He doesn't know how to do anything . He sits there and kisses the managers butt all day long .
That sucks .
I'm just pissed that management can't see behind his smooth talking lies .
Look on the bright side . At least you have a job .
Yeah . I shouldn't stress about this anymore . It's not like I can do anything about it .
Exactly . Instead , we should have some drinks tonight .
How about a cold bottle of beer .
The music is on . May I have the pleasure to dance with you ?
Sorry , I'm engaged for the foxtrot . Will the next Walls be all right ?
I don't stand a chance of passing the exam .
Did I do well on my test ?
Do you want to know the honest answer ?
Why wouldn't I want to know ?
You had pretty bad scores .
Exactly what do you mean by bad ?
You failed .
How'd I fail it ?
There are a couple of reasons why you didn't pass .
What did I do wrong ?
To sum it all up , you really just don't know how to drive .
Thanks . Will I be able to take a retest ?
Bob , look at this sentence . ' Healthy eating is not about strict nutrition philosophies , staying unrealistically thin , or depriving yourself of foods you love . ' It's interesting , isn't it ?
I'd rather say it's confusing . what are those ' strict nutrition philosophies ' about ?
I believe they are careful calculations on proteins , vitamins and calories .
Probably , Rose . That must be the job of nutritionists .
Healthy eating is not about depriving oneself of the foods one loves . So we are free to have whatever foods we love . It is unbelievable .
Oh , believe it or not , I came across an article the other day , saying that pizza is a healthy food .
Seriously ?
Yes , I felt exactly the same way as you did just now . Scientists must be crazy in saying so .
Maybe nowadays people hold different opinions on healthy diet .
Absolutely right . I myself sometimes believe that healthy eating is just about feeling great . As long as I have enough energy , it's fine .
What's the weather forecast for today ?
Cloudy in the morning , overcast in the afternoon .
Any rain ?
No , but I wouldn't be surprised if it rained tomorrow .
This section of the store is called Junior . Why is that ?
It means young girls . That's where you'll find clothes for young girls .
But I can't find anything in my size here .
You're small , but you're not a child .
Well , there's nothing I can do about my height !
There's a petite section that you an check out .
What's in the petite section ?
I'm glad we live in a small town .
Why ?
Because the houses look so nice at Christmas time .
Yes , they do . Do you have a Christmas tree this year ?
Yes , we have a big tree this year . I bought the decorations at the five-and-tencent store yesterday . Do you want to come and see it ?
I can't now because I have to buy a present for my mother .
When can you come ?
Okay , Rebecca . Now you ' Ve given me a good idea of your work and academic background , but what about you as a person ? How would you describe your key strengths ?
Well , Mr . Parsons , as I mentioned before I ' m someone who needs new challenges . I ' m really focused and hard-working . I think my academic results prove this .
Yes , true , but how about other personal qualities ?
Well , I believe I ' m a good team-player , but I can also work well independently . I ' m very enthusiastic and , well I hope my colleagues would agree , I ' m fun to work with .
What would you say is your most positive quality ?
I'm exhausted .
Excuse me , sir . What would you like to eat , Chinese food or western food ?
I'd like to have Chinese food .
Are you going to have this set course or have dinner in the dining room ?
Right here , please .
Please put down the table in front of you . It's more comfortable that way .
Oh , thank you . So nice you are .
It's my pleasure . What would you like to drink , milk , tea , coffee , orange juice or iced water ?
I want a cup of bean milk . Do you have any ?
Yes , here you are . Enjoy your meal .
Thanks a lot . Oh , excuse me . Can I take two value meals ? And I want some chili paste .
OK , enjoy yourself , sir .
Oh , sorry to bother you . I want to know what kind of meat it is .
It is beef . Do you like it ?
That's OK . Thanks very much .
You are welcome . Please press that button if you need any help .
Hello ?
Hi , David . You are very difficult to reach . I called several times . But I kept getting a busy signal . Is your phone out of order ?
No , not out of order . But we seem to have a bad connection on the phone line . I can ' t hear you clearly .
Ok . Let me call you later . Is that okay ?
I swear I will never shop at a street market in China . It's a terrible place full of excellent profiteers ! You have to keep an eye whenever it comes to paying for something .
cool down , Harry ! What are you really mad about ? Did you get ripped off ?
yes . Last Sunday I went to a nearby market . It was on open-air fair . I chanced upon this bag and bought it on the spot , without even trying to strike a bargain . I paid one hundred and twenty . And just
is that so ? I'm afraid people here will not take pity on unlucky guys like you . Bargaining has always been an indispensable procedure in business deals . It's the norm of free trade . The seller sets
but don't you think it annoying to overcharge the customers by such a handsome margin ?
What are we going to eat for dinner ?
Are you going to cook anything ?
I didn't plan on cooking tonight .
If you're hungry , then cook something .
I don't know what to make .
Tell me what you want to eat .
I've been craving chicken and potatoes .
I'd like that .
Are you going to cook it tonight ?
I'm really not going to cook tonight .
Okay , I guess I'll cook .
Good morning . Can I help you ?
Yes . Do you have any seats available on a flight for Beijing leaving at 15
Sure we do . First-class or economy ?
Thanks a lot for having us . We had a good time .
I'm glad you came . You're welcome anytime .
Thanks . By the way , tell your wife she throws a great party .
Good afternoon , passport and arrival card please .
Here you are .
Where are you coming from ?
China .
Is this your country of birth or residence .
I just work there .
What is the purpose of your visit to the United States ?
I'm here on vacation .
How long do you plan to stay in the United States ?
Almost three weeks .
Sir , you didn't fill out the information on your arrival card of where you will be staying .
Oh , I'm sorry , but there are a couple of different places I will travel to within the United States , so I wasn't sure what to put .
You must specify an address of the place where you will spend most of your time .
Ok , here you are .
Do you have enough means to support yourself while you are here ?
Yes . I have some travellers cheques and two credit cards .
Very good . Do you have anything to declare ?
Nope . I only have my clothes and camera !
Can you help me buy my textbooks ?
There will probably be a book list in the bookstore . Do you have your class schedule handy ?
No , I don't have that .
To get started , take that list over to the bookstore . Do you know where the bookstore is ?
I am not sure where the bookstore is .
When you pass the gym , it'll be the first door on the left . Do you know how to sell your old textbooks for money ?
Yes , I knew I could do that . Exactly how do I go about selling them ?
If you give your used textbooks to the person at the booth outside the door , he will reimburse you . Can you go over there today ?
I think maybe I could be there .
I am free at 1
Maybe that would work .
What do you do now ?
I'm out of work at the moment .
Why ?
I was fired last week .
I'm sorry to hear that .
It doesn't matter .
What's your plan now ?
After the tour I'll have a rest . And then go to find a new job .
Best wishes for you .
Did you tell others that we are getting married soon ? You have such a big mouth !
May I help you ?
Yes . I'd like to see one of those ties .
You mean this one ?
Yes .
It's pretty , isn't it ? It's made of pure silk and it's on sale .
OK . I'll take it . Will you gift-wrap this , please ?
Excuse me , How do I get to the Grand hotel ?
I am sorry , I didn ' t catch what you said . Could you repeat it please ?
The Grand hotel , is it far from here ?
I have a sore throat and my chest hurts .
How long have you been like this ?
Two or three days now .
I think you've got the flu . There's a lot of it going around .
What do you think I ought to do ?
Well , Randy , I'd say you've got a bad case of the flu . The main thing to do is get plenty of rest and drink lots of liquids . I'll prescribe something for that throat .
Thanks , doctor . Is there anything I can take for this headache ?
Some aspirin or Panadol should help . You can pick some up at the pharmacy when you go to fill your prescription .
Okay .
I'm tired of you always wearing my clothing !
What can I do for you ?
I've got a suit , a woolen sweater and a white shirt to wash .
OK , let me see . This white shirt can be washed in water with hands , but this suit and the woolen sweater should be dry-cleaned .
That's OK . But that must be costly .
Yes , the cost for dry-cleaning is three times of that for ordinary laundering . But for suits and sweaters , you can only take them to the dry cleaners ' .
Oh , my wife just threw them into the washer .
Did it ever shrink or fade ? Generally speaking , the dark-colored clothes always fade away gradually .
I see . The woolen sweater shrunk in the wash .
Never mind . You can leave them to me .
Oh , thanks . You know , I know little about this , so please tell me something that I should pay more attention to when I do washing .
It's very simple . Divide the clothes by the colors , and wash them in cold water . If you've got some special stains on them like sugar , coffee or something else please let the dry cleaner know .
I'll keep that in mind . And how much is it altogether ?
Wow ! I can ' t believe I ' m standing here !
What are you so excited about ?
I ' m standing in front of an exquisite work of art !
What ' s the big deal ? It ' s just a picture of some woman .
I ' Ve seen it so many times in books , but I never imagined I ' d get to see it in person .
There are tons of other paintings that I think are better .
Maybe so , but do you have any idea how much this one is worth ?
No , how much is it worth ?
About 80 million dollars .
Freeze ! Police ! Put your hands over your head !
What did I do ? I haven't done anything .
You're under arrest for concealing illegal drugs .
What do you mean ?
You are suspected of hiding illegal drugs . So we are taking you into custody .
I didn't do anything .
We've found some heroin at your house .
No , I didn't . I'm innocent . Those aren't mine . Whatever you found is someone else's stuff . You can't prove anything . I wasn't there when you went in , and you can't prove it's my stuff .
That may be , but you're still under arrest . And you'd better stop talking .
I don't need your help , jerk .
Excuse me . Would you tell me where The People's Park is ?
The People's Park is located on Nanjing Road , near Limbo road , just on the opposite side of the International Hotel .
How long will it take me to get there ?
Only about twenty minutes .
I'm not going in the wrong direction , am I ?
No , you aren't . Just go ahead , please .
May I take a bus to get there ?
You can take the No . 22 trolley bus to get there .
I need a room for a few days .
That won't be a problem . Could you please tell me your name ?
John Sandals . That's S A N D A L S .
Sir , I'm Michelle , and I run the front desk . Please tell me the days you'll be here .
I'll be there in April Friday through Monday , the 14th through the 17th .
We recently changed many things here , sir , including our prices . Do you mind , sir ?
Possibly . What's the actual price ?
The price will be $ 308 a night .
$ 308 ! That's not bad .
Very good . Now , Mr . Sandals , about the room , smoking or nonsmoking ?
Nonsmoking , definitely !
Most of our clients prefer nonsmoking . Now , does a queen sound okay ?
Yes , that'll be just fine .
One more second , sir . Your reservation is now verified , so all I need is your phone number .
It's 626-555-1739 .
Is there a sofa in the living room ?
I am afraid there isn ' t .
That ' s too bad . Is there a desk in the living room then ?
There is a desk and two chairs .
Where are the chairs ?
Have you considered upgrading your system ?
Yes , but I'm not sure what exactly I would need .
You could consider adding a painting program to your software . It would allow you to make up your own flyers and banners for advertising .
That would be a definite bonus .
You might also want to upgrade your hardware because it is pretty outdated now .
How can we do that ?
You'd probably need a faster processor , to begin with . And you also need a more powerful hard disc , more memory and a faster modem . Do you have a CD-ROM drive ?
No .
Then you might want to add a CD-ROM drive too , because most new software programs are coming out on Cds .
Have you ever thought about Tom ' s attitude ?
I ' Ve cut it up and come to the conclusion that hi is actually sick of Jenny ' s brother . But he likes Jenny . She is a big apple in his eye .
Love me , love my dog . He ' s a sensible kind man .
So do you think you can get to the office alone ?
Sure , I ' ll catch the train . If I can ' t catch the train , I ' ll get a taxi .
Do you think the taxi driver will understand you ?
If he doesn ' t understand me , I ' ll show him the office address on my business card .
Ok but how will we know if you are going to be late ?
Hi , David ! What are you doing ?
Oh , just looking at these club notices . I'm thinking of joining one . Hey-why don't we join a club together ? How about the Tennis Club ?
Actually , I'm not good at tennis at all ...

Helen , why do you keep flushing the toilet ? What's wrong ?
I just can't stand it . It's really gross in here ! There ' s a stain on the toilet seat , and the floor was wet and slippery . So I cleaned it !
You did what ? Helen , I know it's gross , but I ' Ve seen many public washrooms that are much worse . Why are you cleaning the counter top ? are you out of your mind ?
I can't help myself ; it's just so disgusting in here !
Helen , this is not like your own bathroom . Just leave it to the cleaners , okay ?
Hang on . I'm just gonna quickly wipe the sink and sweep the floor .
Did you hear anything about the robbery ?
I watched it happen .
Really ?
Yes . I was right there .

What happened next ?
He tried to leave with the money .
Did he get caught ?

That sounds comfortable .
Hello , Mr . Hao . I am calling to tell you that you are not selected as our employee . Sorry .
Although I am a little shocked , I can deal with it pretty well . I didn't perform as well as I should have in the interview .
Maybe . But you should not withdraw forever just because you failed once .
I've been working hard for a whole year . I really need a break .
That's true . You need to take some time off to relax .
You said it . I'm looking forward to my annual vacation .
When are you going to take your vacation ?
Later this month . I can't wait !
Hi , is this the Bread and Cheese Deli ?
Yes , ma ' am . How may I help you ?
I need to place an order for a couple of sandwiches and drinks . Can you deliver ?
I have read your resume . What is your last job ?
I've worked in the Production Department for two years .
Could you introduce your biggest accomplishments in your last job ?
Working with my colleagues , we were able to increase the production efficiency by 5 % .
Great ! Could you tell me your educational background ?
Yes . I got a bachelor's degree in English from Beijing University .
Why are you willing to work for our company ?
I can get more promotion in your company .
OK , that's all . We'll inform you in two days .
What's the specialty of your restaurant ?
The crab soup is quite delicious . It ' s always a favorite with our customers .
I'm afraid I don't like seafood quite well . Would you suggest some others ?
Well , why not try Spaghetti Bolognese ?
You know Iden , I don ' t know much about you . Where were you born ?
I was born in London , but I spent most of my childhood in Hongkong .
What was your childhood like ?
I had a pretty strict up-bring , and my parents and I were always fighting about it .
Do you get along with your parents now ?
Oh , sure . Once they reached middle age , they became a lot less uptight .
Where did you go to university ?
My parents wanted me to stay in Hongkong , but I decided to go back to England , I graduated from Oxford University with a degree in English literature .
What ' s your current occupation ?
I ' m a freelance writer . i write magazine articles and fiction books
Did you always know you wanted to be a writer ?
No , I didn ' t . I was an english teacher for about five years , but by the time I was thirty , I decided I want a fresh challenge .
How did you start writing ?
I started writing margin articles for fun , and eventually was asked to write a book , so I was pretty lucky .
Are you writing a book now ?
Yes , it ' s about a group of friends living in a foreign country , and all the strange experiences they have
Good morning . I ' d like to ask some questions about your insurance policies .
Of course . Please sit down . How can I help you ?
I bought a house recently and would like to insure it and its content .
I see . Here ' s a pamphlet about our home insurance policy . We ' Ve named our policy " umbrella " . May I ask how much you paid for your home and where you live ? These are the two main thing that decide how much your premiums are .
I understand . I live in the Oakfield area and paid $ 100,000 for my home .
Let me just check that on my computer . Oakfield is a low risk area , so your premiums will probably be around $ 100 a month . The other thing to take into account is deductibles .
In this pamphlet it says that the minimum amount for deductibles is $ 2000 . what does that mean exactly ?
It means That the first $ 2000 of any claim you make must be paid by you . The insurance policy covers any amount above that , up to the agreed limit .
Oh , I see . That ' s fine . What is the advantage of having higher deductibles ?
If you have higher deductibles , your premium are lower , because you will pay more of the claim and we will pay less .
It seems that I should do some calculations before deciding . I presume that the insurance period can be for as long as we agree .
We initially sign one-year policies with our policyholders . These are renewable after the first year .
If I have a claim , how long does it take to make a settlement ? I ' Ve heard that with some insurance companies , it can take months .
My hair stood on end when I saw the bloody scene .
What scene ?
Excuse me , Mr . Graham ? I have something I need to discuss with you .
I ' m in a bit of a hurry , Louise . Can it wait ?
I would really appreciate it if we could talk for a few minutes now . It ' s about the overtime you ' Ve asked me to put in .
Honey , how is by you ?
Hey , Shirley . The party has been wonderful . My husband and my children have enjoyed it very much , and me too .
I've said you will enjoy your life here !
I surely will . By the way , is the party like this held every weekend in our neighborhood ?
Oh , I've forgotten to tell you . The party is held every other week . And every family gives their own performance each time .
My children would like that ; they like dancing very much .
That's good !
Look ! Who is that guy on the stage ?
Oh , my God ! That's my husband , Benjamin .
Really ?
He likes American Idol very much , and he always imitates the contestant at home . I can't believe he got on the stage himself .
He performs very well . He is so funny !
OK , just ignore him . I've noticed there are lots of exercise facilities in our community . After dinner you can go there for a walk with your family !
OK , that's perfect ! By the way , is there any playground in our neighborhood ?
Yes , there is one behind our building . And you can play tennis there . But if you want to play tennis there , they will change you 30 Yuan per hour .
OK , got it ! Thank you so much . You have helped me a lot !
Hey , the pool's open now !
As of today it is . Memorial Day marks the end of the school year and the beginning of summer .
So it's time for the kids to get outdoors ...
... and for us to get tans in our new bikinis .
Not this Taiwanese girl . We don't like to get suntans .
Excuse me , sir . You are not supposed to smoke here .
I beg your pardon ?
Your seat is in the non-smoking section . So , please refrain from smoking .
Oh , I see . Since I'm a heavy smoker , may I change my seat ?
Then , I'll try to find a seat in the smoking section . One moment , please . Thank you for waiting . I found a seat in the smoking section for you .
You hoo , anybody here ?
Over here , Betty !
Hi , Rock Sam ! Hey , I am surprised to see you doing so well .
Haha . Don ' t worry , Betty . So tell me , what ' s the latest gossip ? Unless you want to keep it to yourself .
No way . Alisan Darling just got hitched in Vagas .
No kidding ! What happened to Ad ?
Darling found out he was having a fling , and one new girl found out about Darling she dumped him too .
Was , talk about a double whammy .
Ya . And now I can break this to you . Fanny is moving .
Oh , right . What a load off my mind . I really don ' t like her .
Well I have to go , Rock Sam . You take it easy , OK .
Hello , Mr Brown . I'm glad you came in today ; we've just opened a new service that you might be interested in . It's called Bank Securities Link .
And what does that entail ?
It's actually a Deposit Account that links to your Margin Account , the one you have with the Securities Company . You can transfer the money you have in your account into your Fund Account .
How can I do that ?
Good morning . What seems to be the problem ?
Good morning , doctor . I feel terrible . I ' Ve god a cold and I have a rash here on my neck . I ' m not sleeping well either . What do you think the problem could be ?
I ' d say you ' Ve been working too hard or are under stress for some reason . Have you been taking anything for your cold ?
Yes , I bought some medicine at the chemist ' s . I ' Ve been taking it for three days .
Good . I ' m going to prescribe something stronger . It will make you feel drowsy , so you certainly should rest .
OK . I can afford to take a few days off work .
Have you been working hard recently ?
Yes , I have . I had to get a project finished . It ' s done now , so I can relax a little .
Good . Let ' s take a look at that rash ... it looks worse than it is . I ' m going to prescribe some ointment for it . If the rash doesn ' t clear up in a few days , come back and see me . Do you have any other symptoms ?
I have a bad headache , but ...
Don ' t worry about that . It ' s probably of the stress you ' Ve been under . Just take some aspirin . Combined with the stronger cough medicine , it will make you feel very tired . You shouldn ' t work or use any equipment which requires concentration . If I were you , I ' d just sleep , read a book , or watch TV . Here is your prescription .
Do you know where I can find old music boxes ?
You could try shopping at a flea market .
What's that ? I've never heard of such a thing .
A flea market is an outdoor place where people sell all kinds of used stuff .
OK , Where can I find one ?
Happy new year !
Thank you . Same to you .
Have you got any plans ?
I've been invited over to a friend's , and you ?
What's happening in your life ?
Can you believe I'm going to America ?
That sounds great .
Did you go to see Michael last night ?
Yes , He had just bought a new motorcycle .
Did he let you ride it ?
Yes , I tried it and I quite liked it .
Weren ' t you frightened ?
Sure . But I still liked it .
Would you like to buy a motorcycle yourself ?
No . Although motorcycle is nice , I ' d like to buy a bicycle .
But why ? Since you like it so much .
Hi , I was wondering if I could get my test results from the other day .
Yes , I would like to schedule an appointment for you to come in and talk with me .
Is something wrong with me ?
No , sometimes the test results aren ' t clear and we need to do more to get a clearer picture .
Can we talk about it now ?
I would if I knew anything for sure , but I want to take a second look .
When can I come and see you ?
You can come in this afternoon . If you would feel better , bring your husband with you .
Now I know that something bad is up !
Jim and you are bosom friends , aren't you ?
I wouldn't say so .
What do you mean ?
What can I do for you today ?
It's a little embarrassing really ; you see I think I've got a counterfeit note .
Do you remember where you got it ?
No , I don't . Usually I'm very careful about checking the money I'm given , but for some reason this one slipped through .
Counterfeit notes these days can be very sophisticated and difficult to spot with the naked eye . But I must warn you that if it does show to be a counterfeit I have no option but to confiscate it .
I understand . To be honest , I'll be glad to get rid of it if it is a fake .
Waiter , I would like to order now .
Sure . What do you want to have today ?
Cream soup and steak , please .
How do you like your steak ?
Excuse me , what does that mean ?
Well , there are several kinds of steaks . For example , you can have your steaks medium-rare , medium-well or well-done .
I heard Betty lost her tennis match this morning , so she's out of the tournament .
Really ? What a shame ! I thought she was going to win this one .
OK class , so today we are going to continue with our anatomy class , today we will review everything we have learned . Can anyone tell me what the first major organ is ?
The brain !
That's right , the brain ! It serves as a control center for the body , handling the processes of the central nervous system as well as cognition . Then what major organ is in our chest ?
The heart !
Very good ! It pumps blood throughout the body , using the circulatory system such as blood vessels and veins . Now let's not forget that our lungs provide oxygen to our heart and body to keep us alive ! Now what about the organs that help us digest food ?
The stomach and intestines !
Very good ! Let's not forget that the stomach is the one that breaks down our food and our intestines process that food and then expel the waste . Are we forgetting anything ?
Yeah ! Our kidneys , liver and bladder !
Oh yes , you are right . Very important organs indeed .
So what do these organs do , teacher ?
How's your girlfriend ?
Have you received your TOWEL test results yet ?
Yes , I did . I passed !
Congratulations ! I knew you could do it .
Well , I certainly couldn't have done it without your help . You are the best tutor I've ever had .
Thank you , but it was your hard work that did it .
Hi , Sue . What's up ?
Hey , Andrew . How's everything with work ?
Ok , I guess . My boss has been on my back recently .
Really ? What's he been doing ?
You know , just giving me lots to do . I'm really busy right now .
Are you ? What are you busy with ?
Do you think what I did to Elvin was out of line ?
You could have tried to explain to him about the new programmers .
Elvin doesn't want any programming help . He wants all the glory for himself .
You might be right . He does think pretty highly of himself .
Did you hear the names he was calling me ?
Could you tell me something about your previous job ?
Yes . I once worked in a small stock exchange . My work is very simple .
Didn't you like it ?
No , I thought it too dull . Also I didn't think it was challenging enough .
What made you make a decision to leave ?
I need to buy a bus pass .
What kind of bus pass would you like to buy ?
What are the different kinds ?
You can get a day , weekly , monthly , or student pass .
Could I get a student pass , please ?
Sure , can I see your student ID ?
Sure , here it is .
Very good .
How much for the pass ?
It's free , but the monthly sticker is $ 24 .
Okay , I'll take it .
Thank you for your purchase .
Would you please recommend a diamond for me ?
OK . How about this diamond necklace ?
I prefer a diamond mounted in a ring .
Then . I'm sure you will like this one .
Do you guarantee its quality ?
What're you doing now ?
I'm watching TV .
You're supposed to clean your teeth before you go to bed .
I will .
How are you doing ?
Great . Thanks .
May I help you with something ?
I would like to transfer some money .
Where would you like to transfer money from ?
Take it from my savings account .
Where would you like the money transferred ?
I want it transferred into my checking account .
How much would you like to transfer ?
I would like to transfer $ 200 .
Will that be all today ?
Maybe you'll get another chance at the statue .
I don't think so . Did you ever go and look at your stamp ?
And let them ruin my life ? Forget it !
But you've been looking for that stamp for years .
It's not worth it . Besides , I have to save up to pay for some bills .
Bummer . I guess we're both out of luck .
Where do you want to go ?
I am going to the Capital Hotel .
Get in . I will take you there .
About how much it will cost ?
$ 50 .
On the meter ?
Ye , of course .
Can I help you , sir ?
I wish to buy a diamond ring .
How many carats would you like it to be ?
I want five carats .
Is this one suitable for you ?
No , it seems too old-fashioned to my fiancee .
What about this ?
It seems too small for me , haven't you got any larger ones ?
Then you can buy this one . It's very nice and latest in style .
Yeah , I ' Ve just moved here , and I ' d like to activate my cell phone , and I ' m not sure if I should go with a prepaid plan , or a monthly rate plan .
I see . Well , can I have a look at your phone ? Unfortunately , this phone can ' t be used in the US , it ' s not compatible with our 3G network .
What ? Really ? I don ' t really want to have to buy a new phone .
Well , you ' re in luck ! You see , if you sign up for our three-year plan , we ' ll throw in a handset for free .
Really ? What ' s the catch ?
There ' s no catch ! You just choose a plan , sign a three-year contract and , that ' s it ! Actually , we ' re running a special promotion right now , and we ' re giving away a Blackberry Curve with our special Mega Value forty dollar plan .
So what does this plan include ?
Well , you get nine hundred anytime minutes , and you can also enjoy free mobile to mobile calling to other Tel-Mobile clients , one thousand text messages per month , and unlimited evening and weekend minutes . Oh , and we also offer a rollover option .
Wow , all this for forty dollars per month ?
Welcome aboard .
Excuse me , Miss . Can you show me my seat ?
Let me have a look at your boarding pass . It's E - 6 , the sixth seat by the aisle .
Hi , charlie , are you busy this evening ?
Sorry , I'm afraid that I've got plans tonight .
What are you doing ?
I'm going to my parents ' house for my father's birthday .
How old is he today ?
It's his 50th birthday .
Well , wish him a happy birthday for me .
Sure thing . What are your plans for the evening ?
I was just thinking of going to a movie tonight .
Well , if you can wait until tomorrow night , I'll go with you then .
Sorry , I've got people coming over tomorrow night .
Sounds like this weekend just isn't going to work out for us .
Sounds that way . Maybe some other time then ?
Sure . Hey , I'm sorry , but I've got to get going .
Yeah , me , too . It's about time I made a move .
Say hello to your friends for me .
Likewise . See you later .
Excuse me . I think I have got lost in the Art Gallery . Can you tell me the way to the exit .
Sure . Go back and take the third turning on the left .
Thank you very much . I have been wondering here for almost half an hour .
It's very thoughtful of you to invite me to your wedding .
How can I forget my old friend ?
My best wishes to you and the bride !
Good morning sir , I come to fetch me suit .
Sure . May I see your receipt ?
Here you are .
That's right . Try it on .
Well , I think the waist is a little tight and the sleeves are too long .
Good morning , Family . We'll have our board meeting this afternoon . Can you write the agenda on the notice board ?
What will you discuss at the meeting ?
We'll talk about the financial report for the first half of the year .
And anything else ?
We'll also discuss the personnel plan for the second half of the year .
That's all ?
Yes . Please write them down on the notice board . I want everybody to see them .
Have you washed any clothes yet ?
No , I've only washed my whites .
When you wash your dark clothes , can you put some of mine in ?
Sure . Is there any extra care that I should take with your clothes ?
Just make sure you keep it on the gentle cycle .
How many clothes of yours do you want me to wash ?
There isn't a lot , why , do you have a large load to wash ?
It's really only a small load .
Do you mind washing my clothes ?
Not at all . It's no problem .
Thank you so much .
Excuse me , but I'm looking for a gift for my friend .
Is it a Chinese New Year's gift or a birthday gift ?
Well , it's a wedding gift .
Oh , I see . Let me guess ... something sexy for the new bride on her first night of marriage ?
Basically . But I have no idea what to get ! She's American and kind of ...
You know , Mary , I feel we meet somewhere before . Where were you born ?
I was born in Beijing , but I spent most of my childhood in London .
What was your childhood like ?
I had a pretty strict upbringing , and my parents taught at universities so they have extremely high expectations for me .
Where did you go to university ?
My parents wanted me to stay in Beijing , but I decided to go back to England . I graduated from University of Newcastle upon Tyne with a degree in Cross Culture Communication .
What is your current occupation ?
I am a journalist . I write for China Daily .
Did you know that you wanted to be a journalist right after your graduation ?
No , I didn ' t . I started working at a university in London but as time went by , I found I did not really like my job . I decided to explore other fields . Journalism is great fit for me as well as a challenge .
Do you like your current job ?
Hello , Matt !
Hello , Todd !
Matt , I'm going to ask you some questions about pet . First question , do you have a pet ?
Yes , in fact , my mom's house we have three , three pets . two dogs and a cat . My family actually raises dogs for helping blind people .
Wow , like how do they train the dogs ?
How do they train the dogs ? Well , I mean , it's a long process , right ... we get them when they're puppies ... and so we train them basic ... you know , sit , come ... really basic things ... then , after they're about two year old , they go a different training school .
Well , how many dogs do they train at a time ?
Oh , just one ! We have our own dog , and then we have a dog that we have that we are training .
Do you ever see the dogs you trained , like out on the street , or anything ?
Sometimes we'll see them , they'll have like sort of conventions of reunions of the pets so , yeah , you get to see them once in awhile .
Oh , wow , that's cool . Um , why do people keep pets ?
I guess the most important thing is companionship , right ! So there is always somebody there for you that will like you no matter what .
Yeah , that's true . OK , besides cats , dogs , and fish , what are some other pets people keep ?
I am having a hard time at my job .
What's wrong , Julia ?
My colleagues quickly get promotions , while I always get sidelined . I don't know what to do anymore .
Don't give up so soon .
But I don't know what else I can do . I am willing to work hard . Sometimes I make mistakes and the boss is not happy .
Mistakes are just a lessons to learn from .
Tell that to my boss .
Do you know Abraham Lincoln ?
Yes .
He grew up poor in Kentucky and barely had a year of schooling , but he went on to become the President of United States .
He was also assassinated because of his views .
He is known as American's greatest president . Do you know why ? Because he fought against slavery and secession at a time in history where others were too afraid to do anything . He succeeded because of his ambition and generous spirit .
Well , if he can become president , then I can at least get a promotion .
Good afternoon . How can I help you ?
Good afternoon . My name is Monica . I am here for the job interview at 2 PM .
Ok , please first fill in the form and return it to me . You can do it in the next door .
Done . Here is my paper .
Everybody attention . I would like to make sure you all know the process . The interview consists of three parts . One , all of the interviewees will answer the questionnaire and it lasts for maximum one hour . Two , we will take a 30 - minute ' s break . After the break , we all come back to this office and I will announce the successful candidates for the 2nd round . In which , you have a small interview with your future manager .
What about the 3rd round ?
Excuse me , is this where I can catch a bus to the museum ?
Yes , you're at the right stop .
Thank you .
Are you new here ?
Yes .
Have you got small change ? They require exact fare .
Yes , I've got some coins . How much is the fare ?
One yuan . When you get on the front of the bus , just drop your money into the box .
I see . How often does this bus run at this time of day ?
Hello , I'd like to get a seat on flight PB12 to Rome .
Direct or non-direct ?
Is there any discount for a non-direct flight ?
Yes . Right now it's the slack season so we will give you ten percent off .
What if I buy around ticket ? Can you offer me some more ?
You are freaking me out .
Hey Mike . I forgot about registration . I'm a day late , so all the classes are mostly full . What do you think I should do ?
You're screwed . You can't do anything about that . You have to hope that you get some classes that will be useful .
Do you think going to the registration building will help at all ?
No . They will tell you the same thing in a worse way .
Did you register yet ?
Of course . Registering for classes is not something you want to miss .
What classes do you think are still open ?
Well , I know psychology 101 is a big class , so there will always be seats in that class . You can also get into Sociology .
That's helpful . Thanks . But what do you think about philosophy . I wanted to take that class this semester .
I took that class last year . The professor is really cool , so if you go to his office , you can have him sign a card that will let you in even if the class is full .
He does that ?
I guess that's because so many people drop out of that class .
That makes sense . I think I'll do that . Thanks for all the help .
What's all this noise about ?
They're discussing whether they should replace Miss Smith , the Music teacher .
Why ?
Philip , I was really glad to hear about your award . Congratulations !
Thanks , Denise . Actually , I was really surprised . I mean , there were a lot of qualified people out there .
Sure . But the work you did was really exceptional ! You definitely deserved it !
How was my singing ?
This suit looks nice . Can I try it on ?
Who did the stupid thing ?
Maybe it was Dick .
I don't think so . Dick has been on the ball and never does things like that .
You are quite busy every day .
Yes . Work starts at eight and I arrive home after six .
So you have to work all day .
I can take a break at lunch time , but it is only 30 minutes .
I see you sometimes work on weekends , too .
I ' m sick of my job , I always have to work late at night , and the company keeps me working in the office .
Why don ' t you find a new career where you can do what you enjoy , being outside working during the day ?
What do you suggest ? I can ' t afford to quit my job until I get a new one .
How nice these frames are !
Yes , they are the latest designs . Would you like to try them on ?
I want to try on this pair .
The oval shape one ?
That's right .
I think it suits you well .
I agree , but I like wire frames .
Come on in . Let me show you the house . Isn ' t it something ?
Spacious , bright and clean . And the walls were newly painted .
Have you ever seen such a nice house ?
Not really .
This is the kitchen . Every - thing's new .
Which university did you graduate from ?
I graduated from Songhua University .
When did you graduate ?
How were you getting along with your studies ?
Quite well . I made good records in college . I won the scholarship in every semester .
In addition to your major , did you have other fields to study ?
Would you like me to type it for you ?
Yes , please . That would be a great help . Are you sure you don ' t mind ?
Not at all . I ' ll be glad to do it .
Thank you very much .
Shall I write out again first ?
No , there ' s no need .
Can I print it ?
It's very kind of you to show me around .
Not at all . What would you like to see first ?
I really don't know .
Let's walk around the lake first , shall we ?
Yes , that would be lovely .
Have you been here before ?
No , it's the first time I've been here .
I will take you to Li River after walking around here .
That's wonderful ! I have heard the scene of Li River is beautiful !
How did you do in the last quiz ?
I doubt if I can pass it .
Don't be so worried , You know Professor Robert is not too strict .
But I often skip his classes , and he doesn't like me .
I hope you'll do better in the final .
I think it is easier to buy a car than to maintain it . What ' s worse , I just don ' t trust those vehicle maintenance shops . Sometimes , they overcharge or don ' t build those parts I have been paying for . Last week , they even tried to persuade me to buy new parts which really need not to be changed . You know , my car is just half a year old and also good brand . I was just wondering about all these .
There are such shops living on selling parts . I don ' t like their service either . All they want is your money . But in the long run , they will be losing costumers . Anyway , car service business is new in China . We all have to control what they are doing . Otherwise , they will not improve .
Is it possible to make a compliant call to some organization what it ' s someone gets rip-off .
Why don't you have dinner with me tonight ?
I'd love to .
Let's say about 6:00 ?
Can I help you ?
Yes , would you like to tell me what's playing for tonight ?
Sure . There is a folk concert tonight .
Are there any good seats left ?
Sorry . There are only some seats in the back .
Well , what time does it begin ?
It begins at 7 p . m ..
OK . I see .
How many tickets do you want ?
Just two .
OK . Fifty yuan for each .
I need to find somewhere to park .
Off campus or on campus ?
I need to find a space on campus .
Why don't you park in the parking structure for students ?
Where is the parking structure at ?
It's on the west side of the campus .
Do you know if the parking structure is full or not ?
It was empty last time I went up there .
How long ago was that ?
I went up there early this morning .
Do you think it'll be full now ?
Good afternoon , Pan Am . May I help you ?
Yes . I'd like to make a reservation to New York for 18th next month .
Please wait a moment . Let me check for you . The flight is FW 711 and it arrives at 10:00 am .
How long is that journey ?
14 hours .
What do you think about the apartment so far ?
It is beautiful .
You don ' t have any problems with how it looks ?
Actually , there is a problem .
Like what ?
There are some stains that were left in the carpet .
Those stains will be cleaned out of the carpet before you move in .
Oh , is that right ?
Yes . Now what other problems do you have ?
That was the only problem that I saw .
Well , I ' m glad that everything else is to your liking .
All right . But these are black and I don ' t like black shoes . They ' re dull .
Well , black is a better color than pink . Pink ' s for girls .
Then why are you wearing black shoes ?
Because ... oh , all right . You win . Let ' s pay for them and go .
What's this , I wonder ?
I'm not sure . Let me have a look ... It could be a coffee grinder .
A coffee grinder ?
Yes , it must be used for grinding coffee beans .
Excuse me , are there any more shopping carts ?
Yes , you can find it at the entrance .
But there isn't a single one right now .
Ok , I'll get one for you .
thank you , I'll wait here .
Here it is . It ' s really hard to find a shopping cart at this moment .
Thanks a lot . By the way , do you make the deliveries ?
We make deliveries only for bulk buying .
Is it free of charge ?
No , but the charge is rather low .
Hey , Lily ! You won't believe what happened in class today !
What ?
A man sent Miss Smith flowers , and Bryan got kicked out of class !
Cool ! I wish I could have been there !
Me , too . I miss you . Are you any better ?
Good morning .
Morning . What would you like for breakfast ?
I'm not quite hungry now . Let me think for a while .
Come on . We are going to be late .
Ok , Ok . Toast and egg .
Milk ?
Hello , who is speaking , please ?
Hello , Mr . Stern . This is Hao Bo from the International Travel Agency . I have made the plane reservations for you .
Oh , good . Let me get a pencil and take down the information . Well , go ahead , please .
Okay . You'll be travelling on Northwest Airlines , flight number 222 .
What time does it leave ?
It departs Guangzhou at 10:30 on the morning of July 10 .
That is good .
You want to fly first class . Is that correct , Mr . Stern ?
That's right .
Well , I have got you three first class tickets and I have reserved your seats . Your seat numbers are 8A , 8B and 8C .
Those are in the non-smoking section , aren't they ?
Yes , they are . I have charged the tickets to your credit card . They are 630 dollars each , so It is 1890 dollars for all three .
Fine , thank you very much .
One more thing . Could you give me the names of the people you'll be travelling with ?
Sure . They are my kids , Alex and Kathy Stern .
All right . You're all set . Have a nice flight .
What do you think is harder , reading or writing ?
Well , they ' re completely different . Reading is passive , and writing is active .
I don ' t think I understand what you mean . Could you explain a little more ?
In reading you need to recognize language by seeing the words on the page and knowing what they are . In writing you have to produce language , you have to create your own words on a blank page .
Oh , now I see what you mean . When you ' re reading , you are just looking , but when you are writing , you are actually doing something !
A reading knowledge of a language is larger and different from a writing knowledge . Don ' t you think so ?
I think I see what you mean . I can read Shakespeare but I definitely can ' t write it .
Exactly .
So I have another question for you . What do you think is harder , speaking or understanding ?
They ' re both harder than reading or writing .
In what way ?
Because they are direct communication with another person , and there ' s a time limit . This time limit is the most serious problem for foreigners , even for those who know lots of English .
You are making me feel really discouraged .
I like the design of the coat .
But I like its color .
Anyway , it's my ideal coat . I'll take it .
John , it ' s time to get up .
It can ' t be time to get up yet .
It is . Hurry up ! You ' ll be late for school .
What ' s the time ?
It ' s nearly half past seven .
My watch says ten past .
It ' s slow . Hurry up ! The bus goes at twenty to eight .
Are you sure half past seven ?
Positive . I ' ll put the radio on .
It ' s only seven o ' clock . Your watch is fast .
No , it isn ' t . It ' s stopped . I forgot to wind it up last night .
May I help you ?
Yes , could you cash these travaler's check for me , please ?
Sure . Please sign your name here ... and here .
Ok , here you are .
Thanks . How would you like them ?
Are you going to vote this Tuesday ?
Yes , I am , and I am so excited .
Have you figured out who you ' re going to vote for ?
I love my candidate .
Why is that ?
My candidate is probably the most intelligent .
Is that right ?
I also agree with all his policies .
That ' s great !
I know he ' s going to be the next President .
Hopefully , he will be .
Julia , I would like to have a word with you . Have a seat .
Thank you .
According to your performance , I decided to give you a salary increase . From next month , there will be a 2,000 yuan raise to your salary . Although your first raise might not sound considerable , the company believes that with your ability , sooner or later you'll get a better raise .
Thank you very much . Mr . George . As a newcomer , I understand that you have your consideration and I am satisfied with the raise .
I think you deserved this .
Let ' s move out of here . This apartment is too small .
I agree . I ' ll look in the paper .
A house would be great . I could plant a garden . And you could use the garage for a workshop .
Here ' s an interesting ad
How much is the rent ?
The ad says $ 325 plus deposit .
When is the place available ?
I'm exhausted . My new exercise is so hard .
I think it is easy . I could work in your class with no problem .
You thing so ?
Oh , without doubt . When is the next class ?
Tomorrow morning . Try it .
No problem .
Are you going to this class this morning ?
Of course , easy . No sweat .
You're no able to move after this class .
Are you kidding me ? It's going to be up a piece of cake .
You want to bet ?
Yeah , what't the bet ?
You look run down , Brian .
I've been feeling under the weather recently . I caught a bad cold last week , and I still haven't got over it .
Well , you wanna take a sick leave ? All you need now is a good , long rest .
I guess so . Even though I seem to be over the worst of it . I don't want to give the bug to anyone in the office .
Have you read all these crazy things that are going on around the world ?
What do you mean ?
I was reading about how some people get tricked or drugged in their hotel rooms and have their organs removed ! Then they are sold on the black market .
Don't tell me you actually believe all that ? Don't be so gullible , they are just urban legends . They are just stories people make up to scare you .
Well , I was also reading about how some popular songs have subliminal or even satanic messages if you play them backwards ! Can you believe that ?
You really think an artist or song writer is going to go through the trouble of putting subliminal or satanic messages in a song ? Don't be so naive !
Well maybe you are right , but how about the story of how KFC has rows of headless chickens which are super grown in order to get bigger chickens faster !
So Peter , do you have a favorite comedy ?
Well , that's hard to say because there are so many good ones . I don't think I could pick a favorite .
You know what comedy I really like ? " Ace Ventura , Pet Detective . " I think Jim Carry is really funny .
Oh yeah , that's one of my favorite flicks . I think Jim Carry is one of the funniest comedians ever .
Good morning .
Er , good morning , yes , er ...
I'm phoning about the job that was in the paper last night .
Oh , yes . Arm , well , could you tell me your name , please ?
Oh , Candida Fawcett .
Oh , yes . Arm , well , what exactly is it that interests you about the job ?
Well , I just thought that it was right up my street you know .
Really , mmmm . Arm , well , could you perhaps tell me a little about yourself ?
Yes , arm , I'm 23 . I've been working abroad , I'm um ...
Do you mind if I ask you to practice speaking English with me ?
No . Of course not . But what for ?
Well , I'm meeting some American friends next weekend .
Here's the schedule we've prepared .
Oh , thank you .
Do you mind if we talk about your schedule tomorrow ?
That will be best . I'd like to have a good rest first .
And this is the schedule for Mrs . Watson . Eileen from our department will take care of her .
Ok . Shall we discuss the schedule in the lobby ?
Hello , madam , I am sorry for keeping you waiting so long . Now please follow me and I will show you your table .
Thank you . Is that a window table ?
Yes , just as you have ordered .
To be frank , I find philosophy rather boring .
To tell you the truth , it's the most tedious course i have ever had .
How could you manage to pass the exam ?
what kind of music do you like listening to ?
I like music that has a fast beat and is lively , like dance music . You know , I go to a disco almost every week . Sometimes it ' s too loud though . You prefer classical music , don ' t you ?
yes , I do . I find it very relaxing . I often listen to Mozart or Bach in the evening after a hard day at work .
I must admit that I like several pieces of classical music . It ' s certainly more sophisticated that modern dance music .
classical music is supposed to be good for you brain . Research suggest that it makes your brain more active . Students who listen to classical music while studying perform better .
really ? Perhaps I should listen to classical music often . I heard that listening to classical music is helpful in reducing stress .
yes . That ' s why I listen to it in the evenings . I usually play it as background music while I ' m cooking or doing other housework .
I ' Ve got a few classical music CD ' s . I should follow your lead and increase my brain power .
you can find plenty of recording on the internet too . You can listen to samples and then buy them very cheaply if you like them .
that ' s a good idea . You should do the same with some music . You might find something you like . Classical music might make you clever , but dance might make you livelier and happier .
How about the matter ?
I heard it has been finally settled under the rose .
It ' s the only way to preserve her reputation .
Thank you for bringing me here Hong , this place looks great !
You ' re welcome . Would you like some cold dishes ?
Let me see . How about the lotus root ?
Ok , and anything to drink ? Maybe some jasmine tea ?
Oh , yes that would be nice .
And for your main course ? I can recommend the sizzling beef .
Actually , I ' m vegetarian so I ' d like to have the bean curd .
Oh , my god ! I look so old . I look as if I were 40 . I think it's time for some plastic surgeries . I'm tired of these wrinkles and sagging skin .
I don't see any wrinkles or sagging skin ! You'd better stop being so ridiculous .
Anyway I think I need a nose job and some breast implants as well .
I think you need to get a brain surgery . Honestly speaking , you look charming .
I know what you mean . I just want to make myself more attractive .
You are fine the way you are . Besides , plastic surgery hurts .
Really ?
Jimmy , I ' d like to wear this robe for tonight cocktail party . What do you think of it ?
Don ' t dress like that . You ' ll make fool yourself . You look stupid in that robe .
What ? But it is my favorite piece of clothing .
Maybe it is . But it ' s out of fashion .
What am I going to do ?
So did you get in touch with your brother ?
No , not yet . I'm really worried .
Well , it'd be foolish to call the police . He probably just went away overnight .
Excuse me . I wonder if you could help me . I'm looking for the Oriental Pearl Theater .
Boy , you are lost . It's across town .
Oh ! What bad luck ! How can I get to the Theater ?
Have you find any job that you are interested in ?
I ' Ve only find a few openings in my field .
There ' s not a very high demand for that kind of job , isn ' t there ?
Unfortunately not . If I can ' t find anything in that field , then I could also work in the marketing field .
That ' s a good idea . You have plenty of experience in marketing , don ' t you ?
Yes .
By the way , I saw a job in the paper this morning that you might be interested in .
Really ? What is it ?
It is a job at an advertisement company .
Do you think they'd hire me ?
Housekeeping , may I come in ?
Come in please .
Good coming , sir . May I do your room now ?
How long will it take ?
Your room will be ready in half an hour .
Well , would you please come back fifteen minutes later ? We are to visit the Tower .
Where are you off to ?
What did the boss say ?
He asked me if I'd like to be a newspaper salesperson ?
You are still student so I don't think you should have time for that .
Don't worry about that . He said I can do that at spare time . Anyway , it's just a part-time job .
Okay , then . What kind of newspaper he wants you to sell ?
It's a weekly newspaper named Olympic English . So I need to be here only on Sunday .
Sounds interesting . Especially that we are Olympic Volunteers .
That's exactly what I am thinking about , And also it's a good way to get social experiences .
And a good way to get some pocket money .
Let's do it together .
I'll say yes . Wait a minute . I need an IC card .
For what ? You have a telephone at home , don't you ?
Excuse me ? How can I get to the nearest branch of the national bank ?
There ' s branch on new street . Walk up this street until you get to the first set of traffic lights . Then turn right at the traffic lights .
How far up the street are the traffic lights ?
Now far . About 150 meters perhaps .
Ok . So I turn right at the traffic lights . Then ?
Then keep walking until you reach the war memorial . It ' s a big statue of a soldier . You can ' t miss it .
Ok . Where do I go then ?
You ' ll see the national bank near the war memorial . It ' s a big building and you ' ll see a big sign on the front of the building .
How are you feeling , champ ? Ready to go ?
You know , if I can keep up my workouts , I think I have a chance in 2004 .
In what ?
In gymnastics . I'm pretty flexible . Look ! I can even touch my toes !
Can you do the vault ?
Morgan , can I ask you a question ?
sure , what is it ?
I was just wondering if many Chinese people take their leftover food home from a restaurant .
in most cities in China , doggie bags are quite uncommon .
what happen to all the leftover food ?
it usually goes to the dump .
that seems like an awful waste ! Why don't people order fewer dishes so that they don't have to throw so much away at the end of the meal ?
ordering a lot of food at restaurants is just a tradition in China . You know , in the past , people could not afford to eat out like they can today .
I guess that makes sense . I just think it would make more sense to take the leftovers home .
well , if you want , you can take the leftovers home .
no , that's OK . You know what they say when in Rome ...
I was impressed that you tried the pig's feet . I heard that many foreigners don't like to eat them .
many people in my generation don't eat pig's feet , but my parents grew up eating them , so I think they are OK .
did you like them ? You could take the last one home with you .
Can I help you ?
I'd like to buy some Chinese-style cakes . Could you recommend me some ?
Certainly . What about moon cake ? It's typical Chinese food .
Moon cakes ? What is that ?
The moon cake is round and looks like the full moon . That's why it's called the moon cake and the moon cake symbolizes family reunion and harmony .
Sounds very interesting . I'll buy some to family people .
All the moon cakes are generally classified into two styles , Cantonese style and Suzhou style .
What's the difference between these two styles ?
The skin of Cantonese style cakes is soft and puffy with heavy stuffing while the skin of Suzhou style cakes is puffy filled with fragrant nuts .
Get me some of each .
hey , Lucas , how was your trip to Paris ?
it was wonderful , but I was so tired .
did you go to the top of the Eiffel Tower ?
yes , that was the first thing we did . We went all the way to the top . There were visitors from all over the world taking photos there .
what else did you see ?
art galleries , cathedrals , statues , fountains , palaces , bistros , there's really too much to say .
you must have had a great time .
yes , at the beginning we were all excited and had lots of fun . However , on the third day of traveling in the city , I felt sick . I think I had something bad to eat , but it passed by the evening .
yes , you need to be careful with what you eat when you're abroad . Sometimes new food might disagree with you .
on the fouth day , we went to taste the French cuisine . That was really fantastic ! And no stomach problems .
that is great . Everyone says French food is wonderful .
Is there any way of ensuring we'll have enough time for our talks ?
I am sure we do have .
So our evenings will be quite full then ?
Do you take in students ? I've been told you might have a vacant room .
Yes . If you don't mind sharing room with someone else , there's one available .
How much are you asking ?
800 Yuan a month .
Could I have a look at it , please ?
How's the chicken ?
Hey , Lily , what are you doing ?
Waiting for someone .
You mean the boy you met on MSN ?
You're right . He is so funny and I think I'm in love with him .
You must be joking . You can't fall in love with someone you've never met !
I know , but I keep thinking of him every day . And I get really depressed when he's not online .
I think it's just a crush . You can't be serious .
Well , this might be silly . But I just can't get him off my mind . And I can't help missing him .
Did you tell him ?
Yes . He said I'm his dream girl .
You shouldn't take it too seriously . It might be a lie .
I know . I can't tell whether he's serious or not so I need your advice .
Which sports are popular in your country ?
Most people like football . More boys like football than girls . A few girls play it really well . Some people like playing basketball .
Do many people like tennis ?
More and more people like it now . fewer people play table tennis than before . Many people like swimming , because it is fun and keeps you fit .
In my country , many people enjoy golf , but it is too expensive for some people . A few people like extreme sports , but I think the vast majority of people are afraid to try them .
Extreme sports are only for a small minority of people . Several people from my university enjoy them , but most of us just watch . No one I know plays golf .
I know loads of people who play it regularly . There are plenty of golf courses around the country . In the past , only a tiny number of people played .
A great deal of people follow rugby in my country .
How can we avoid the jam ?
Let's take a roundabout way .
OK .
You must be Mr . Sellers . I'm Steven . I am here to see the apartment you advertised .
Oh , nice to see you . The apartment is on the tenth floor . The previous tenant just moved out yesterday .
Could I have a look at it first ?
Sure . Let me show you the way . Here we are . Apartment 1008 . ( They enter . ) This is the living room dining room combination . Here's the kitchen . It's small , but fully equipped . The refrigerator is new , and the stove and the microwave oven are less than a year old .
It's nice . So this is the bathroom . And that must be the bedroom .
Yes . And there's a walk-in closet .
Is there air conditioning ?
Yes , there's central air conditioning and heating . The thermostat is in the living room .
What's the house rent ? When is the rent due ? And how much security deposit do you require ?
It's 600 yuan per month . The rent is due no later than the tenth of the month . We ask that you leave a month's rent as a deposit . It will be returned to you at the end of your lease .
Well , I ' Ve looked over your resume , Mr . Peepers .
Please , call me Ted .
Well , Ted , this is a very impressive resume . However , we do have several other applicants to finish interviewing before we can make a final decision . We ' ll call you by Friday , if that ' s all right .
That ' s no problem .
Do you have any other questions ?
Well , what kind of salary do you provide ?
Salary is based on experience as well as time spent with our company .
I see .
Salary can be negotiated once we officially offer you the job .
May I introduce myself ? I am steven smith .
All right , Mr . Crane , when will you be arriving in the city ?
I should be coming in on the 11:30 mooring flight . How far is the office from the airport ?
Only 25 minutes or so . We ' ll send somebody to meet you . That ' s 11:30 a . m . Friday the 15th ?
If one is rich , is the happy ?
I don't think so . It ' s impossible to equate wealth and happiness .
Could I understand what you said as the poorest is the happiest ?
Maybe we'd better go now .
It's still early .
Gosh , it's already 10 . Stay here if you like .
Since we're late , let's go to see a film .
What's the deal with the Asia area sales ? Did you have a chance to look at any other reports that came in from the branch offices ?
We got numbers back from our offices in Beijing , Hong Kong , Taipei , Singapore and Tokyo , we're waiting on Bangkok and Kula Lumpur .
What do the preliminary figures tell you ? Any kinds of trends going on for the branches in the Far East ?
It's hard to say , because the branches are located in diversity different countries , cultural and social influences will definitely play a part in the success of the product in the various markets .
For example ?
It's so earlier this morning , Mr . Li ! You just came back yesterday , you should have rest much more .
I'd like to have rest , but I have many things to do .
How about this post-trip ?
It's very good , and the result isn't too bad .
Really ?
Of course . I will write a report about this post-trip , and then you'd better type it at the moment , OK ?
OK , it's no problem .
( Afternoon ) Miss Liu . Are you typing my report ?
Yes , what can I do for you ?
Nothing . I just tell you take care of it when you type , especially the address and telephone number of those new guests . You should make sure that it's no mistaken .
OK , please don't worry about it . You should set your mind at rest .
Ha , I know you are great secretary .
Thank you very much for your dinner .
Thank you for your coming .
My wife is expecting me at home . I must be off now . So long !
Good morning golf aficionados ! My name is Rick Fields , and you guessed it , I am here with my main man , Bob Copeland .
Thank you , Rick ! As you can see , ladies and gentleman , we are here in beautiful Pebble Beach where the top golfers in the world are trying to win the grand prize of one million dollars !
Whoa , that ' s a lot of cash ! Let ' s go to the course and see how Tiger Woods is doing .
All right , we are here at the eighth hole . It ' s a par four , and has some very difficult hazards which many golfers find difficult to avoid . Although , I did see Jack Nicklaus hit a hole in one on this very same hole !
Tiger Woods is about to tee off , and let ' s see if he has the same luck as Jack . Tiger is asking his caddie for his driver and , he seems to be very nervous .
Oh no ! Not a good swing at all ! It ' s definitely not his day today . On the seventh hole he got a bogey and before that he barely made par . He will definitely not get a birdie on this shot .
It seems that his ball has flown somewhere deep in the trees . He is having a hard time finding it and even his caddie has climbed a tree to try and spot it .
Good evening , Mr . Brown .
Good evening , David . Good evening , Mary . It ' s so good of you both to come .
May I see your passport ?
Here it is .
How long are you going to stay ?
For one week .
What is the purpose for your visit ?
For sightseeing .
Where are you going to stay ?
At the Hilton hotel .
Do you have anything to declare ?
Daniel , would you like to have a look at my dorm ?
Of course , I'd like to .
It is a small room , just for 4 people .
What is in it ?
It only has 4 beds and 4 writing desks , but it is spacious and bright .
Do you get along with your roommates ?
Of course . They are very friendly .
Which floor are you on ?
We are on the 5th floor , and there's a very nice view from the balcony .
Oh , you can climb the stairs as a workout .
Yes , that's a good idea .
Wow , your roommates are cleaning the room .
I just won the lottery .
Excuse me . Is this where I catch the bus for the zoo ?
Well , you can take the No . 36 bus from here , but then you have to walk about 30 minutes .
That doesn't sound too bad .
Actually , if you go to the bus stop in the next block , you can take bus 301 which will let you right off in front of the zoo .
Maybe that's what I'll do . Thanks a lot .
I think it's important that all people have the ability to read .
Do you object to drinking black tea , Mr . Zhang ?
Yes , that is why I never drink it .
Do you drink green tea , then ?
Very seldom , because tea has tannin which may be harmful to one's health .
But if the tea is good and well prepared , it will do much good .
What good is it for ?
Not only can it appease one's thirst , but it can also refresh one when tired .
That's true , but it must not be allowed to stand long .
Why is it so ?
Hello , sir , what can I do for you today ?
Hello , I need a new suit . I have an important interview next week , so I really need to look sharp .
No problem ! We have a broad selection of suits , all tailored made so that it will fit perfectly .
Great ! I want a three piece suit , preferably made from Italian cashmere or wool .
Very well sir . Would you like to have some shirts made also ?
Sure . I ' ll also take some silver cuff link and a pair of silk ties .
Can I help you ?
Thank you , but I'm just looking around . How much does this skirt cost ?
This is the new style . Two hundred and twenty-eight .
May I try it on ?
Of course , please .
Can you give me a better deal ?
Two hundred and ten yuan . It is the lowest price .
Well , I'll give one hundred and eighty yuan for it .
Well , two hundred yuan .
No , this is my final offer .
The system keeps crashing when I try to access the personnel database .
Ann , let's go , or we will be late .
What time is it ?
It is already 10:25 .
Well , we still have about 15 minutes .
What time did you say the train is leaving ?
12:05 . And it takes only 20 minutes to get to the station by bus .
Yes , but what will happen if the bus is late ?
Relax , those buses run every 10 minutes , so we have plenty of time .
( still on the bus . ) What time is it ?
It is a quarter to twelve .
I ' Ve decided to grow my own garden !
What ? You don ' t know the first thing about gardening !
On the contrary , I have been reading a lot of books about the subject .
Oh yeah ? Tell me then , smarty pants , how will you go about setting up your garden ?
Well , first I need to buy some things , such as fertilizer , seeds and tools .
What type of tools ?
You know , the basics . A rake , shovel , spade and a hoe .
Right . Well it seems like you have all your bases covered . What ' s next ?
I ' ll till the soil and then sow the seeds . I ' ll then add some fertilizer and voila ! Gardening all done !
Is this a photo of your family ?
Yes , it is . It was taken just before I was leaving for college .
You look so lovely .
what are you looking for ?
I want to buy a new camcorder for my trip this summer .
do you know what camcorder options are available ?
not really . I thought I'd just have a look today .
would you like to look at the new digital camcorders that have just come in ?
sure . I'd like to see the smallest camcorder that you have first .
ok . This Sony model is their newest and our most popular camcorder . Why don't you see if you like the way it feel ?
it's very light . That would be good . How is the battery life ?
it's got an above-average battery life . It lasts up tp 12 hours and can be charged in 30 minutes .
can you also take still photos with this ?
yes , that is an option .
how about night vision ? Can you use it in the dark ?
yes . I can show you examples of some footages that was taken with this camera in the dark .
that's not bad at all . How's the microphone ? Does it pick up much sound ?
It can record any sound that's within about 8 feet of the camera .
how does that compare with other models ?
there are models that can pick up more sound than this one , but they're much bigger and heavier than this one .
Good morning , sir . What can I do for you ?
Some friends of mine are going to visit me this evening . Would you please buy some fruit for me ?
Yes , sir . Do you need some flowers ?
That's a good idea . Can you help me to get some ?
Certainly , sir . What kind of flowers would you like ?
A basket of lilies .
You need fruit and lilies . Am I right ?
Right . Here is five hundred yuan in advance . Is it enough ?
I think it's quite enough . I'II have them bought for you as soon as possible .
Hi , Bob ! How are you doing ?
Fine ! How are you ?
I'm fine too , thank you .
I've come to tell you I'm going to the concert this evening . Will you come with me ? I've two complimentary tickets .
With the greatest pleasure . Where is the concert this evening ?
It will be held at the Music Hall .
What's on the program ?
Hey , Joe ! Where have you been these past few days ?
I ' Ve been busy with a first aid course that I started about a week ago at the Red Cross .
Cool ! I ' Ve always wanted to do something like that ! Have you learned anything useful ?
For sure ! I mean we ' Ve learned how to apply pressure to stop bleeding , how to check for a pulse , and even how to apply CPR !
Have you treated any real emergencies ?
Well , they took us along with some paramedics . There was this guy who fell off his motorcycle and suffered a concussion as well as a couple of compound fractures . His wounds were pretty serious so they had to rush him to the hospital . It was intense !
What was that noise ?
It was the pilot putting the wheels down . We must be coming into land . Are you frightened ?
What is up ?
Look at the dishes ! I have told you three times to put away these dishes . But now ...
Oh , don ' t be angry . I just thought you might need them sometime .
What are you doing ?
Look at me . I look so old ! I look as if I were thirty .
Come on ! Stop being so vain . You look great ! You are beautiful !
Yes , I am , but I think it ' s time for some plastic surgery I ' m tired of these wrinkles and sagging skin . See ?
I don ' t see any wrinkles or sagging skin ! You are 25 , stop being ridiculous . Besides , I think that people who get Boto , have facelifts , or tummy tucks look weird . It doesn ' t look natural .
Whatever , I think I ' m gonna get liposuction and a nose job and some breast implants as well .
I think you need to get brain surgery . I honestly don ' t think you need cosmetic surgery . You look amazing .
I thought you were my friend and would support me on this ! I just want to feel better about myself and feel more attractive .
You don ' t need plastic surgery to do that . You are fine the way you are and you have guys drooling all over you ! Plus , plastic surgery hurts !
Really ?
Your dog is so much fun . He ' s so playful . I wish our cat enjoyed being around people as much as your dog does .
Cats are well know for being more independent than dogs . How old is your cat now ? you ' Ve had her longer than we ' Ve had our dog .
She ' s eight years old . She ' s getting quite old . Your dog ' s six , isn ' t he ?
Yes . He ' s so energetic . We take him out to the park every morning and evening . I think he ' d be happy to stay there all day !
I ' m sure he would . We usually have to drag him home .
Your cat spends most of the day outdoors ' , right ? Do you kino where she goes ?
She spends less time outdoors and she used to . we have no idea where she goes . She ' s very secretive . Occasionally , she brings back a dead mouse .
Have you ever thought about having another pet ?
I'm taking my date to a restaurant . Could you tell me about one or two good ones ?
My pleasure ! How much would you like to spend on your date ?
She will want an excellent restaurant , of course .
You should know that our hotel chef was trained in Paris . The service and food are world-class .
I wanted to go out somewhere , not stay here . Do you know of another good restaurant ?
You can't go wrong with Gramercy Tavern . It's famous for its food , service , and live jazz .
I like that ! Could you please call them to see if we can get in tonight ?
Taxi ! Taxi !
Where to , sir ?
I ' d like to go to the railway station please .
Please hop in .
Is it a long run to the station ?
It ' ll take about 20 minutes .
The streets are heavy with traffic at this time of a day , are they ?
Yes , they are .
Is it the rush hour now ?
Yes , it is . Are you in a hurry sir ?
No , I ' m not . Would you please drive slowly and carefully ?
What did you do over the weekend ?
I went a global warming rally . It was fantastic to be around so many people who care about the environment .
Do you think there's anything we can do to reverse the damage that's been done already ?
It might not be possible to fix the problems that we've created for ourselves , but there are lots of things we can do to prevent more damages from happening .
Like what ?
Well , we can use public transport instead of taking our cars for a start .
What else can we do to protect the environment ?
If you do have to drive , you should make sure that your car runs on unleaded petrol . Also , your home should use sources of renewable energy .
How about recycling ? Does that actually help ?
Yes . You should take your glass , paper , plastic , cardboard , and tin cans to a recycling center .
What do you think the biggest worry for our future is ?
I think that the issue of greatest concern is having enough sources of clean water for everyone .
I had no idea you were such an environmentalist before !
You must be pretty excited about your trip to Europe . When is it that you are leaving ?
In just three weeks , and I am excited . But there are still a few things I need to do before I go .
Like what ?
Like renewing my passport , going to the travel agency to buy my plane ticket and figuring out what to do with my apartment while I ' m gone .
You are not going to give it up , are you ?
No way . I ' ll never find another apartment around here . But I don ' t like the idea of paying three months ' rent on an empty apartment , either .
I don ' t blame you . Perhaps you could sublet it .
Yes , but whom to ?
Mmm ... let me think . Oh , I know just a person . An old colleague of mine , Jim Thomas , is coming here to do some research this summer , from June to August .
That ' s exactly when I ' ll be away . It sounds ideal , as long as the landlord agrees .
Tell you what , I ' ll be calling Jim late this week anyway , so I ' ll mention it to him then .
Did you already wash your clothes today ?
I've only washed my white clothes .
Could you wash some of my dark clothes with yours ?
Is there any special care I should take with your clothes ?
The only thing is that they have to be washed on the gentle cycle .
Are there a lot of clothes ?
There aren't a lot of clothes , do you have a lot to wash ?
It's a medium load .
You don't mind , do you ?
No big deal . I'll do it for you .
Okay , thanks a lot .
We're now staying at the Holiday Inn . How do we get to the airport ?
We have shuttle buses leaving for the airport from downtown every 20 minutes The bus stops at Holiday Inn as well . Be sure to get on the bus before 30 .
What is the earliest one ?
At 7 am . It takes about one hour to get to the airport . So it'll be right for your timing .
OK , thank you . By the way , what can I do if I want to put off my flight ?
Your tickets are valid for one year . If you want to change flight , you just go to the airline's ticketing office and have it reconfirmed . But you have to fly the same airlines .
OK . What can I do if l want to cancel the ticket ?
In that case . you can get a refund with a certain percentage of the original fare deducted as the service charge .
Study hard , otherwise you'll fail .
Yes , Mum .
Don't render me lip-service , you'd better stay at home tonight .
Excuse me , madam . May I see your ticket , please ?
I'm afraid I have lost my ticket . Can I buy one again ?
Where are you going ?
I'm going to Nanchang .
Where did you begin your journey ?
At Huangshan .
OK . Here you are .
And by the way , what time shall we get to Nanchang ?
We'll get there around 7:45 in the morning .
I ' m itching for moving !
What ' s the matter ? What annoy you ?
How ' s it going ?
Great . Thank you .
What can I help you with ?
I need to cancel a check .
What ' s wrong with the check ?
I accidentally wrote the check for too much .
How much did you write the check for ?
The check was written for $ 150 .
How much were you supposed to write it for ?
I needed to write it for $ 100 .
I can cancel it for you right now .
Could you talk to me for a few minutes about my grades ?
Step into my office for a moment . What is your concern ?
Am I failing ?
Let's go on the computer to see what's up . Do you think you are doing well ?
I am pretty sure that I am in trouble .
I can see that you are trying , but where do you think you could improve ?
I missed a few classes ; I need to make sure I come to school on a regular basis .
Having a regular study routine and following it is very important , right ?
I'll try ; it's hard !
I just had a terrible week .
What a shame !
I fell down and hurt my arm .
That's too bad .
Then my son drove into a tree
I'm sorry to hear that .
The dog bit the delivery boy .
What a pity !
And a storm blew our roof away .
Are you going to the party on Saturday ?
I was thinking about it . Are you ?
Yeah , I heard it's going to be a lot of fun .
Really ? Well , what time does it start ?
It starts at 8
Well , who all is going to be there ?
Everyone from school .
How do you know it's going to be so fun ?
This party is going to have a DJ , food , and drinks .
Wow , that does sound like it's going to be fun .
So am I going to see you at the party ?
Thank you for calling ABC company , may I help you ?
I'm Lui , I'd like to Speak to Mr . Smiths .
Sorry , we have two Smiths , Robert Smith and Jim Smith , which one would you like to speak to ?
I'd like to speak to Mr Robert Smith .
Can I help you , madam ?
Yes , I'm looking for a new winter coat .
Have you any particular color in mind ?
I don't know really . What's the fashional color this year ?
Red is very popular .
Good . Red suits me very well . It's a cheerful color , isn't it ?
Yes , madam , I agree . What size are you ?
Well , I used to be size fourteen , but I've put on a bit of weight recently , so may be sixteen .
Here you are , madam . All these are sixteens .
I quite like this one . How much is it ?
It's $ 180 .
Oh , that's too expensive . Aren't there any cheaper ones ?
These are our cheapest coats , madam .
Yes , I see . I'll take it . Here's $ 200 .
Here's your change .
Betty and I will throw a dinner party this weekend , we ' d like you to come .
That would be very nice . Only that I ' ll be a little late . Is that OK ?
Sure . We ' ll be looking forward to that day .
Do you like this dress , madam ?
I like the colour very much . It's a lovely dress , but it's too small for me .
What about this one ? It's a lovely dress . It's very smart . Short skirts are in fashion now . Would you like to try it ?
All right . I'm afraid this green dress is too small for me as well . It's smaller than the blue one . I don't like the colour either . It doesn't suit me at all . I think the blue dress is prettier . Co
Well , that's it . 7 appointments in Paris at beginning of next week , and 4 in Frankfurt at the end of the week .
It's certainly a tight schedule .
Now it's a question of getting there . I need a flight to Paris on Sunday evening and a hotel in Paris for 3 nights . I have to be in Frankfurt by 11 on Thursday morning . And I will need a hotel for one night . I will head home on Friday .
At what time ?
My last appointment is at 3 , so I should be free by 5 at the very latest . I think I could get to the airport by 6 .
Do you know how far you will be from the airport at 5 ?
No , not really .
So you are not sure how long it will take to get there ?
No , but I am sure it won't take more than an hour .
Don't forget it's Friday nighty . If Frankfurt's anything like London , everybody will be leaving for the weekend . It will be a rush hour and traffic might be moving very slowly .
You are a pessimist .
Congratulations on your success in the competition . That is quite something .
Thank you . I was lucky this time .
I think luck played a very small part in your victory . It is solely due to your hard work and efforts . That brings honor to you and joy to us .
I am flattered .
It is real word .
I don ' t know why bucks have such a great charm that a great many people are after nothing else .
They want to be filthy with dough and think it the only source of their happiness .
Do you have any tables ?
Yes . We've got plenty of tables in stock . Will you have a look at this one ?
It's a nice color , and the style is not bad , but a bit too small . I'd like to get a slightly larger one .
How about this one ?
Mmm , I like it . How much is it ?
Seventy US dollars .
Here is the money . Could you deliver this to my house ?
Of course . We are always at your service .
Here is my name card . Thanks .
Can I help you ?
How much is this pen ?
Ten Yuan .
And how much is this pencil ?
One Yuan .
Here's fifteen Yuan .
And here's your change . Please check if it is correct .
OK , that's right .
Welcome to come again .
Good morning , Sir .
Morning .
Is this where I catch the bus for the zoo ?
Yes . You can take No . 846 from here , but you have to get off at Nanchengmen stop and change to No . 106 .
That ' s a little troublesome .
Actually , if you go to the bus stop in the next block , you can take No . 105 which will let you right off in front of the zoo gate .
Maybe that ' s what I'll do . Thanks a lot .
I ' m hungry , let ' s grab a bite to eat .
Sure ! How about we go home and prepare a couple of sandwiches ?
Nah ! Let ' s go get a burger and fries .
All you ever do is have unhealthy fast food Pizza , fries , burgers and hot dogs ! You have to start eating better !
What are you talking about ? I have salads some times .
Yeah right ! I ' m serious ! You should also cut down on your sugar intake as well . You drink carbonated drinks that are high in fructose syrup ! It ' s really not healthy !
Fine ! I ' ll start drinking and having home cooked meals that are low in fat . Are you happy now ?
Could you tell me something about the Mid-Autumn Festival ? I find it also very interesting .
OK . It falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month . It is said that there is a beautiful goddess Chang'E on the moon who had eaten some sort of elixir and had to depart her husband . She is always expecting to see her husband again . So , later we have the traditional idea that when there is the full moon , it is time for the family members to come together .
So , I understand why people eat moon cakes on that day .
You are right . In China , ' round ' is an auspicious word . The moon cakes are in round shape .
Is it official ?
Adam , I'm sorry !
But where have you been , Alice ? You're over an hour late .
Yes , but I couldn't help it . I was late getting off work for a start , and then I missed the bus . The bus I did catch got caught in a traffic jam . It was one thing after another .
But why were you getting off work so late ? The office close at six , doesn't it ?
Yes , but there's a rush on at the moment , and my boss asked me to do some urgent letters .
But didn't you tell him you had an appointment ?
Well , no . I thought I'd finish in about five minutes , and I didn't want to be difficult about just a few minutes . If it hadn't been for missing the bus and the traffic , I wouldn't have been so late . I'm sorry .
Hi . Can you give me a wake-up call tomorrow ?
Certainly . What time would you like us to call you ?
I need two wake-up calls , if you don't mind , one at 7 and the other at 7 fifteen .
Not a problem . We'll call you tomorrow morning at 7 , and again at 7 fifteen .
On second thought , you'd better make that second call at 7 thirty instead of 7 fifteen .
Said , and done . Will there be anything else ?
No , that gets it for now , thank you .
When did you and Amanda meet each other ?
I met her about one year ago .
So you met her right after you got to school ?
Where are you going ?
I ' m going to the hospital .
What ' s the matter ?
Professor Wang was hurt in a traffic accident .
That ' s too bad . How are things now ?
Good morning , sir . Can I help you ?
Good day . I ' m looking for a one-bedroom apartment today .
Certainly . How much rent did you want to pay ?
Well , I didn ' t want to pay more than $ 900 a month .
$ 900 a month ? We don ' t often have apartment as inexpensive as that . We have one apartment for $ 985 a month today , on Eleventh Avenue . It ' s near the municipal buildings .
Is it furnished ?
No , it ' s unfurnished . It has a kitchen , but there are not many cookers . There ' s a garden in the back , but the tenants can ' t use it . The landlord lives downstairs . Friends are forbidden in the apartment after midnight . No noise and no television after 11 ...
No , thank you ! I want to take an apartment , not a prison .
Well , I've got a date . Now I need to find a restaurant . Can you help me ?
No problem , of course ! How much would you like to spend to impress the lady ?
Nothing but the best for a pretty woman !
Sir , the restaurant you seek is right here . This hotel has a three-star restaurant .
Well , I sort of suggested that we would go out on the town . Do you have another suggestion ?
Gramercy Tavern is at least as good as our own hotel restaurant . Plus , they have live jazz .
Gramercy Tavern , eh ? I think I've heard of that before . Call to get us a table , okay ?
Hello . I'd like to get a seat to New York City on a flight leaving sometime before this Friday .
I'm afraid Thera isn't any direct light before Friday . What about a non-direct one ? You have to make a change in Detroit .
Well , in that case , that's fine . I want a first class ticket on Thursday .
Would you like to pay in cash or by card ?
Don't just stand outside . Come on in .
Yeah .
This is Alex . Remember ? This is Sean .
Nice to meet you guys .
Over there are Stacy and Rebecca . We're all on the school's tennis team .
Who's that guy who's handing out beer to everyone ?
That's my boyfriend Matt . Isn't he cute ?
He sure is !
You're going to Shanghai tomorrow , are you ?
That's right . Do you think it'll be cold ?
It might be . You'd better take a heavy sweater with you . The nights are usually quite cold at this time of year .
Do you think I'll need a cotton coat ?
I am interested in buying a house and need some information .
Yes , of course . What area are you interested in ?
I am interested in Pasadena or Arcadia .
What size house would you like ?
We need a medium-sized house with at least 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms .
Are you interested in being in a particular school district ?
Yes , we want to stay in the ABC School District .
Would you like a home near the lake or would you prefer a view ?
I would love to have a home with a view .
Mr . Black , I ' d like to take some time off . I ' Ve been feeling exhausted these days .
That's no problem . Let me see ... You still have ten days annual leave left , is that right ?
Yes . I was wondering if I could take another two weeks off .
That's long leave . How's your project coming along ?
The project I'm in charged of now will be done by the end of this week . I'd like to take my leave from next Monday on .
Well , all right . But you make sure to tie up loose ends before you leave .
Thank you , Mr . Black . There are no immediate projects coming up at the moment . Mr . Smith will be in charge during my absence . He is taking part in several projects as my assistant and knows how to maintain relationships with our clients .
Great ! I hope you have a good relaxation and come back refreshed .
So , Fred , what are your plans for after graduation ?
Well , I ' Ve already got a job waiting for me back in my hometown .
That ' s cool . Have you already found an apartment to live in ?
I ' m planning on living with my parents . Won ' t you ?
I couldn ' t even if I wanted to . My parents told me that if I went home , then ' d have to find my own place .
You mean they ' re kicking you out ?
Not really , they just don ' t want me living at home . My older sister did that , and she lived at home for seven years . Once she started living at home , it got harder and harder for her to move out .
Well , it ' s not like my parents want me to live at home the rest of my life . They said that it ' s ok if I move back home to begin with , but they want me to find a place of my own after a year or so .
My parents just didn ' t handle my older sister very well , and because of that , they want me to be more independent . They think that it ' s important that I should learn how to live on my own .
I have had some really horrible headaches lately .
How long have your headaches been going on ?
I get headaches occasionally , but they have been really bad lately .
Any unusual amounts of stress in your life going on right now ?
I am getting ready to take my GRE .
Have you been able to sleep regular hours ?
It has been hard for me to sleep with a bad headache .
Has anything hit you in the head lately ?
I hit my head on a cupboard door a week ago .
Do you know that Mary an Ben have already separated ?
Yeah , I know .
Mary !
Barbara !
What're you doing here ? You live in London , don't you ?
My watch always gains ten minutes a day .
That's funny . My watch always loses ten minutes a day .
No kidding .
I am serious . Every morning I set my watch by the radio , but it still loses ten minutes .
You know what you can do ?
Throw it away and buy a new one .
No , you don't have to . You only need to put your watch back ten minutes every day .
So you put your watch back ten minutes every day ?
Yes , that's what I am doing .
Hey , Brad . How was your day ?
Pretty good . Where are you going ?
I'm going home .
Wait . We have to return to our homeroom and wait to be dismissed .
Is that right ?
Our homeroom teacher has to take attendance again to make sure that we're all here .
So he takes attendance once in the morning and once in the afternoon .
Merry Christmas , Linda !
Merry Christmas , Lee !
Linda , thank you for this wonderful Christmas dinner . I really enjoyed it .
Hi Benjamin . My name is Dr . Green . What seems to be the matter ?
I've been feeling pretty ill for a few days now .
What are your symptoms ?
I feel chilly , I've got cramps , I keep throwing up , and I feel dizzy and tired .
It sounds like you might be a bit dehydrated . Do you feel thirsty most of the day ?
Yes . I can't seem to drink enough .
Have you been drinking plenty of water ?
No , just soda .
Ok . Well , we'll have a nurse take some blood in a few minutes to see if you're dehydrated . First , let me feel your pulse .
That seems to be a bit low , but that's not uncommon when you're ill .
Is anyone else sick in your home ?
No , but my girlfriend has mono .
I see . I'll have the lab techs run some tests to check for mono as well then . The nurse will come in then to take your blood , we'll run some tests , and then you can go home . You should hear from us by this afternoon .
I'm checking out tomorrow . What time must I vacate the room ?
Before 12 a . m .
Dalian is a beautiful city . Do you agree ?
I suppose I do .
The climate here is pleasant .
You said it .
This city is really comfortable to live in .
It sure is .
No other city can match it . It's heaven .
Well , if you live in other cities as long as enough , you will love them just as much .
Maybe .
Wow ! What a beautiful scenic spot . It's so open . And just breathe that fresh air , you can almost taste its freshness .
You can have a bird view of Chilin City from the top of the mountain .
Wonderful ! I'll often come here for mountain climbing .
You should . Many Guiliners , especially the old and the young , will climb mountains here in the coming .
No wonder people say , Even the immortals would rather be Guiliners .
... Quick ! Pass me your binoculars . Look at that bird ... I've never seen one of those before . It's indigenous to Guiling , and an endangered species too . This is lucky .
I didn't know you liked bird watching .
Hello ? This is Mike here . May I have a word with Grace ?
She ' s not at her desk at the moment . Is there any message I can give her ?
Yes . Please tell her that tickets to Phantom of the Opera will be delivered in two days . My number is 6521684 0 , extension 236 .
Ok . I ' ll let her know as soon as possible .
How many rooms are you looking for ?
Oh , four or five . How much is the rent for this apartment ?
150 a month .
I just had a terrible week .
What a shame !
I fell down and hurt my arm .
That's too bad .
Then my son drove into a tree .
I'm sorry to hear that .
The dog bit the delivery boy .
What a pity !
And a storm blew our roof away .
May I please speak to Tom ?
Tom has gone to lunch .
I'll just try him again .
Do you want me to have him give you a call ?
No , but what time do you expect him back ?
What'll it be today , sir ?
Fill it up . Super Unleaded .
Shall we check your oil and tires ?
I just checked the oil myself , but you can check the tires .
( The attendants fill the tank , clean the windscreen , and add some air to the tires . ) All right , sir , that'll be $ 26 . 50 .
May I take your order now ?
Yes , I'll have a boiled egg with toast and orange juice , please .
How would you like your eggs ?
Hard-boiled , please .
And your toast , light or dark ?
Dark , please .
Now or later ?
Later will do .
Will there be anything else ?
No , that's all . Thanks .
One hard-boiled egg with toast and orange juice to follow .
That's right .
Good morning , everybody . Welcome to IAM Technology . I'm very pleased so many of you could make it here today . My name's Sam Weiss . I'm the Production Manager . I'd like to show you the layout of the factory before we go and visit it . As you can see from this diagram , everything is under one roof . We've designed it this way to help the flow of materials and to avoid bottlenecks .
Our maths teacher is rather humorous .
On the contrary , I think he's very serious .
No , not at all . His examples are really interesting .
So they're easy to remember .
Yeah , how about your maths teacher ?
He's an old antique , very serious .
Bad luck , Anne .
Hey ! How about your history teacher ?
She's another antique .
What's the matter with you ? You look so upset and tired .
My father failed in business .
Oh , that's really tough .
Maybe it is the most difficult period of my family have experienced .
I can understand . By the way , is there anyway I can help ?
No , not now . I have found a part-time job . So perhaps I can help my family to come over the difficulties .
Oh , that's so great , bless you ! if you need me , I'll always be there .
My uncle passed away last night .
I'm having problems with my computer .
What's wrong with it ?
For some reason it won't turn on .
Have you checked the connections on your computer ?
What connections ?
There are cords that connect your computer to a power outlet .
Will the cords keep it from turning on ?
It won't turn on if the cords aren't connected .
I didn't think of that .
Try it and see if it works .
I think that I will , thanks .
I've heard The Hitchhiker would be on next week . I want to see it .
Is it horror movie ?
Yeah , I love horror movies the most . Would you like to go with me next weekend ?
No way . I will be scared out of my wits .
Well , What kind of movies do you like ?
Er , let me see . Romance , comedy , documentary , action , science fiction , cartoon and so on .
In a word , you like all the movies except for the horror movies .
Yeah , It seems like we don't talk the same language as far as movies are concerned .
Not quite . I also like romance and comedy movies very much .
The Terminal is a movie of this type .
So we can relax now .
What can I do for you ?
I am trying to find this book .
What ' s the problem ?
It doesn ' t seem like this library has it .
Have you checked the computer ?
I have already .
What did it say ?
It says the book is on the shelf , but I didn ' t find it there .
I can always borrow the book from another library .
You can do that ?
I ' ll make the call and contact you when it gets in .
Hello . I need to disconnect my phone , please .
All right . Where do you live , sir ?
At 345 Lincoln Avenue . Oklahoma City .
Very well . Why do you want to disconnect your phone , sir ?
I ' m moving to a new home .
O . K . May I have your name please ?
John Smith .
Thank you . Mr . Smith . What ' s your telephone number ?
555-7658
Thank you . Where should I send your final phone bill ?
623 West Side Drive . New York , New York .
Thank you , Mr . Smith . Your phone will be disconnected after this phone call . Have a nice day .
Have you any tour route to Budapest ?
Yes , I have , sir . How long are you going on vacation ?
About 2 weeks .
I recommend you this route . We call it golden routes for the sightseeing spots .
Well , will you offer me any reduction since it's a out-of-season tour ?
It will do you good to go out for entertainment at weekends . What kind of movie do you like best ?
It's hard to say , I like interesting and significant ones . I don't care whether they're blockbusters or not .
Shall we go downtown for a movie this Friday evening ?
Very good , What's on ?
Where is the produce ?
It's on the south wall of the store , in aisle A .
Is there any produce on sale ?
Hello , ABC company .
Hello , this is Mr . Morris Pitt . I'd like to speak to Mr . Bell , please .
Just a moment . I am sorry . At the moment , he is out of the office . Would you like to leave your number ? When he comes back , I will tell him to call you back .
Please have him call me at my office . He knows the number .
It's snowing outside .
Oh , how could it be ?
Let's go out and have a look .
OK . Wait a minute .
Look at the snow , it's so beautiful .
Yes . It's really snowing .
I love winter , I love snow .
But don't you think it's a little too cold ?
But I like cold more than hot .
Should I tell EDD that I have found a job ?
Is this a temporary job or something more permanent ?
What difference does it make ?
When you get your next Continued Claim Form , you should just write down where you worked and note that you no longer need unemployment .
If I take a short job and then get laid off , will I be starting over trying to get unemployment ?
Hello , Ann ! Is that you ?
Yes , it is . Hi , Tom ! It's a real surprise to see you here .
It's been a long time ! What's new ?
Nothing much . What about you ? Is everything going well ?
Not bad I guess . I just got back from Hawaii .
How was it ?
I had a good time . You seem to be in a hurry . Don't let me hold you up .
Sorry , I've got a meeting in half an hour .
Ok , I won't keep you then .
Great ! It's good to see you . Goodbye !
Yes , stay in touch . Bye !
Give me your email , would you ?
Bon voyage !
What are in this folder ?
They are reports of our company .
Are they filed alphabetically ?
No , they are filed according to dates .
Can you find last month ' s report for me , please ?
Good evening , sir .
Good evening . I'll have a Scotch .
Yes , sir . Straight or on the rocks ?
Housekeeping . May I help you ?
Yeah , the people in the next room are a little loud . Could you do something about it ?
Of course . What room are you in , sir ?
I'm in Room 215 .
And do you know which room the noise is coming from ?
I don't know the number , but it's definitely the room that's next to the stairs .
Thank you . We'll take care of it . Please let us know if there's anything else we can do to make your stay more comfortable .
Would you be kind enough to lend me forty pounds ?
I'd really like to help you out , but I am broke myself .
Hey . Steven . You have a large chunk of money , but why do you still live in the old flat , instead of buying a new villa ?
I like to live here and enjoy my neighbors ' company . And I don't think I should waste money just because I have much of it .
But I found you always hate to part with your money . Look at the car you drive ; it's such a junker !
Oh , the car is old but still in good condition . I just think we should be thrifty , whether you are rich or not .
But ... But ...
But what ? Just remember that thrift is not only a great virtue , but also a great revenue .
Well , we didn't ask for this room service . It must be somebody else's , I'm sure .
Oh , is it ? Let me check .
Yes , please .
I'm sorry to say that this room service charge is yours .
We paid for the room service already in our room .
Do you have any evidence ?
Congratulations , Francis . Your hard working finally pays off . I am so happy for your promotion .
Thanks , Monica . Without support from you and other colleagues , I would not have made it .
I hope I could get promoted some day . Tell me about your experience , ok ?
Well , just saying that you wanted to get promoted is not enough , you need to write down your desirable position and an available plan for achieving that adjective . Don ' t be afraid of taking challenging . They might be opportunities and failing is not fatal . You learn more from that actually . Sometimes , you need to fail to be successful .
How do you think if I volunteer for some work ?
OK . Come back into the classroom , class .
Does the class start again , Mam ?
Yes , but to the health , this break has long enough .
Oh , breaktime flies .
come on , baby . It ' s time now .
Mam , another minute , could I ?
Are you ready ?
Yes .
Who can tell us something about the author's life ? Volunteer ?
The author was a famous writer , and he was also a politician . He was born in 1911 and died in 1985 .
Very good . Sit down , please . Susan , what's the general idea of the text ?
Can I answer it in Chinese ?
No , you can't . This is an English class , and you have to express yourself in English .
Let me have a try . The author takes the characters peculiar to the British people as a topic to show that they are quite different from other nationalities . They are quiet , shy and reserved ...
Hey , Gucci . I didn't know it would be a charity show . You can see there are many collecting boxes at the entrance .
Oh , I forgot to tell you this . The show is to collect money for children in need . And all the money from ticket selling will go to the Red Cross .
That's really a good thing . Let's do our part .
Good idea .
Who will sing in the show ?
A lot of stars , including Andy , Justin , Mendy ...
Mendy ? Are you sure ? I love her songs !
Me too . She is so young and talented . She is not only a singer but also a great composer herself .
Yeah . Though she was so popular , I heard she managed to maintain a low profile .
She is a real star . Not a onetime thing .
But I also heard some people didn't like her music . I don't understand why . She is so amazing !
Well , I suppose people have different tastes on music . Moreover , here stuff is really strong and creative . It takes time for people to accept new things .
You are right . Anyway , things will be different as the days go on . She can get it . I have faith in her .
Sure . That makes a good fan . Do you know what songs she is gonna sing tonight ?
Here is the programme . Check it out yourself !
May I help you , sir ?
Yes , please . I'd like to buy a gift for my younger brother . He's going to take a trip to South America .
By air or by sea ?
By air . So my gift should be quite light . What can you suggest ?
How about this wallet ? It's made of fine leather .
My sister already gave him one . I like something unusual .
This gift is the best for a man who has everything .
Either we'll be millionaires , or we won't ... won't have a dime .
And it's all coming down to the next three weeks .
The only person who seems confident the software will be done on time is Zina .
Yeah , she is some kind of Superwoman , isn't she ?
Would you like to see our new shirts ?
Sorry , but I ' m not really interested in those things .
But they ' re very nice , you know .
Really .
And not expensive either .
Oh , I don ' t care about that .
Everybody is buying them .
Are they ?
Yes , they ' re very fashionable , you see .
I ' m afraid I ' m not interested in fashion .
I see .
But thank you very much all the same .
Hello , miss . Check out please .
OK , may I have your key ?
Sure , here you are .
Was everything satisfactory ?
Yes . I enjoy my stay here .
You have stayed here for 3 nights , that's $ 230 .
Reservation Center , Air China . Can I help you ?
Yes . I'm coming to confirm my ticket .
May I have your name , please ?
My name is Zu Ping . In fact , I have a reservation on Flight No . 125 for Zhenjiang , leaving Beijing at 2:00 p . m . tomorrow . Now I'd like to make a change of my travel schedule . Is it possible to change my booking to the day after tomorrow ?
Certainly .
Do you have a seat available on the same flight the day after tomorrow ?
Yes . You are reconfirmed on Flight No . 125 for Zhenjiang , leaving Beijing at 2:00 p . m . on January 15th .
Thanks a lot .
Union Bank . How can I be of service ?
I need to know how much money is in my account .
I'll need your name and account number .
How wonderful it is to be in love ! It's love at first sight ! Oh . he's my Romeo !
Hey , Julie . How's it going ?
Oh , Mary . You've surprised me !
Who were you talking to ?
Um -- I was just thinking aloud .
You look so happy . I see a twinkle in your eyes .
Come off it , Mary .
Oh , you have a crush on someone , don't you ? Maybe those are wedding bells in your eyes !
You certainly do like teasing me , Mary . Well I'm in love with someone . The question is , how do I get his attention ?
Well , that's easy . Walk up to him and kiss him .
Hi . I need a wake-up call tomorrow .
What time would you like your wake-up call ?
I need two calls , one at 7 and another at 7 fifteen .
That is no problem at all , of course . You'll get a call at 7 o'colock and another at 7 fifteen .
Then again , I think 7 fifteen is too early . Change 7 fifteen to 7 thirty , please .
So , that'll be a call at 7 and another at 7 thirty . Do you have any other requests ?
Not just now , but if I do think of something later , I'll give you a ring .
How would you comment on the paper ?
The paper editorials always stick to the quick .
Don't you think it's a bit conservative ?
Excuse me . We ordered too much . May we take the food home ?
Yes , surely .
Do we have to pay extra charge for that ?
No , you don't . It is free of charge .
Well , then , will you put this and that into doggie bags ?
Yes , certainly . Would you wait for a few minutes ?
Thanks . Would you do me another favor ?
Yes , what is it ?
Some more Chinese tea for us , please .
I ' m so excited about Chinese New Year ! When do I get to visit Grandma ? Grandma makes the best dumplings in the world !
Ha ha , right . Sounds to me like you ' re more excited about the dumplings than seeing your Grandma .
Of course I miss Grandma , too . I bet she ' s gonna teach me how to play Mahjong ! Hey , Dad , are you going to buy me firecrackers this year ? We ' re going to have the best fireworks ! I ' m really looking forward to lighting them !
Son , firecrackers aren ' t toys . they ' re dangerous !
No , fireworks are awesome !
Whoa , don ' t you remember ? Last year when I set off the firecrackers , you covered both your ears and hid behind your mother ?
I was scared because ... because I saw a bug . That ' s all .
Ahahah ... really ?
Oh , and I can ' t wait to watch the dragon dance ! Dad , can I sit on your shoulders this time ?
Hey , I offered last year ...
Hi , I'd like to get your store credit card .
Here's the application form .
I'm finished . Here's the form .
Thank you . Now if you'll just give me a credit card .
Here's my VISA .
Hi , is this the Bread and Cheese Deli ?
Yes , ma ' am . How may I help you ?
I need to place an order for a couple of sandwiches and drinks . Can you deliver ?
Why don't you sit down and relax , darling ?
I don't want to .
Well , come over and talk to me then .
Certainly not .
May I turn on the TV then ?
Turn on the TV , for what ?
So that we can sit down together and listen to some music .
Listen to the music ? And who will cook dinner , will you ?
I will , but let's go to the disco after dinner .
Why do you want to spend your summer days in a mountain village ?
I think a mountain village is splendid !
I don't agree with you . It's too small to live .
It has fresh air , and it is nicer than a big town .
I disagree , a big town is more lively .
But I like the small mountain village . The big town is noisy . How charming it is when walking along the hill !
What's that , a new video game ?
Nope ! It's the latest generation of PAD ! You won't believe what it can do .
For instance ?
It has a built-in camera unit that takes digital color stills . It also plays MP3 files , which I can save on media cards and then transfer to the hard drive of my computer .
Wow ! Anything else ?
This one comes with its own folding keyboard . It has a pre-installed handwriting recognition program . I can use the stylus to write on the screen .
What if I want to use CD-ROMs or floppies ?
This is Manager Liang's office , what can I do for you ?
This is Wang Miao from AB company speaking . Our CEO Mr . Green has an appointment with Mr . Liang tomorrow morning . But there is a minor change in tomorrow's schedule . Mr . Green has an abrupt urgent case tomorrow and he has to go abroad today . He wanted me to convey his apology to Mr . Wang .
OK ! I'll tell him .
And Mr . Green will make another appointment when Mr . Wang comes back .
Ok ! Thanks for calling .
Bye !
IBA , how can I help ?
Ah , yes , hello . I'm calling to get some info about your PIN services . You see , my friend also has an account with you and also enjoys shopping on the Internet . She recommended I sign up for this service too .
That was a wise decision , if I may say so . Our Personal Internet Banking Service offers online shopping transactions , payment of household bills online , account management ...
I will probably just use it for online shopping . At the moment , I have to meet the seller in person and pay cash , if it's a local seller .
Hello baseball fans , and welcome back to today ' s game ! My name is Rick Fields and of course , I am here , once again , with the man that seals the deal , Bob Copeland .
It ' s a beautiful day to see two world class teams face each other and fight for their right to be called champions .
Well , the national anthem has just been sung , and the umpire has started the game . It ' s time to play ball !
Roger Vargas is up at bat . The pitcher winds up and strike one !
A very nice curve ball by the pitcher . The catcher gives him the sign , he winds up and Vargas gets a line drive !
The players are scrambling to get the ball . Vargas gets to first base and he ' s still going ! The outfielder throws it to second ! Vargas slides ! He ' s safe !
Great play !
We have a runner on third and up at bat is Brian Okapi ! There ' s the pitch , he hits it ! It ' s going , going , that ball is gone !
You ' re making my blood boil .
Calm down . Madam .
I'm about to explode ! You ' Ve made a mess of this matter .
I am very sorry to hear that you ' Ve been having so many problems .
Sorry isn ' t good enough ! What can you do to help me ?
I understand why you ' re angry , Mrs . Wilson , and believe me , we are doing everything in our power to work this out .
Well , obviously , what you ' re doing is not good enough !
Give me a call tomorrow .
Boy ! What a beauty ! I fall in love with her at the first sight .
The beauty under the tree ?
Of course . No girl is more charming .
When do you plan to deliver the goods ?
This weekend .
Please pay close attention to the safety of the shipment .
Waiter , a table for two , please .
Yes , this way please .
Can we see the menu please .
Here you are .
What ' s good today ?
I recommend crisp beef and fried duck .
We don ' t want that . Well . perhaps will be begin with mushroom soap and follow by some seafood and chips .
Do you want any dissert ?
Hey , Mary , can you cut that out ?
Cut what out I ' m not doing anything .
The tapping of your pen on your desk . It ' s driving me crazy .
Fine ! By the way would you mind not slurping your coffee every time you have a cup !
I don ' t slurp my coffee . And plus , how can you hear it when you ' re shouting into your phone all the time ?
You ' Ve got to be kidding me ! You ' re complaining about me talking on the phone when you go out for a cigarette break ten times a day to shoot the breeze ?
Look , we have a lot of accumulated anger from working in these conditions , and it ' s probably okay to let off steam once in a while . But , it ' s probably not a good idea to keep it up I ' m willing to forgive and forget and if you are .
Fine . Let's call a truce . I'll try to more considerate and to keep the noise down .
Hey , I'm hungry . How about you ?
Yeah , I can really go for some Chinese food right now .
That's a great idea . Let's go to a Chinese restaurant .
What are you going to do after you return from Washington ?
I'm going to stay in the city .
What will you do all day ?
I'm going to work with my father at the store . In the evening , I'll read books . On weekends , I'll go to the beach with my family .
Have you ever worked ?
No , but I can learn . What are you going to do this summer ?
I'm going to camp . I've gone to camp for four summers .
I've never gone to camp . What do you do there ?
We do many things . In the morning , we go swimming and boating . In the afternoon , we play basketball or tennis . We sit around a camp fire at night . We sing or tell stories .
That sounds wonderful .
It is wonderful . What's John going to do this summer ?
I think he's going to the mountains with his parents .
Well , so long , Mary . Have fun .
Guess what ? Paul and Susan are engaged .
Really ? When did that happen ?
A week ago ? They met last summer and now just sink . They will be married soon .
Have they set a date for the wedding ?
How do you get paid ? If you don't mind my asking .
Not cash . But if our launch goes well , my stock options will pay off , big time .
And in the meantime , how do you pay the rent ?
I don't have to worry about rent . I live right here .
What ? In your cubicle ?
I often go to a place of leisure .
Really ?
I very much like to go to a cafe and doze in the afternoon sunshine .
Sounds great .
The coffee , books , music and sunshine are just beautiful there .
How nice .
I may take you there some day .
I'm tired of this job .
You've got a beautiful singing voice !
It's this high-tech equipment that doctors my voice a little . Actually , i am tone-deaf .
Come on , You hit the high notes perfectly !
Well , the echo and the stereo system helped a lot . And i know that song very well , so , i didn't need to pay attention to the subtitles which helped as well .
You're too modest . Pass me the catalogue ! I'd like to see which song to choose . Wow , this place has a large selection of songs . I dont know which to choose !
Pick the one that you always sing in the shower .
Funny . Oh , i like this song . It's by one of my favorite singers .
Read me the index number !
1021 . It ' s a duet ! Come on , Pick the mic and sing along !
This is a nice place , but you need to get some furniture .
I had planned to . I can bring some from my place . And there's some more at my parents ' .
Do you have a bed ?
Of course , I have . There is one in my old house . And I have another one from college at my parents ' house .
That's good . You can put one in this room and put the other one in that room .
Yeah , it is a good idea . You can stay in my house for the night if you would like to .
Yeah . By the way , can I take a shower ?
Sure , but I don't have hot water , yet .
Really ?
No , they're coming tomorrow morning to turn the gas on . My phone should be working then , too .
Well , do you want to go outside for dinner ?
Yeah , I can't cook anything until tomorrow , anyway . Let's go to the restaurant nearby . It's my treat .
Where are you going to play this weekend ?
I have not given it much thought . Do you have any good suggestions ?
I want to spend two days in the mountains with friends . The city is too noisy . Do you know Tangle Temple ?
I have been there . It is in the middle of the mountains . It is not noisy there and you have to be a vegetarian .
Do you want to climb the mountain with us ?
Does it have enough lodging ?
No problem . The temple is quite large .
There are many ancient pine trees there . It is especially quiet at night . It is wonderful to listen to the monks chanting while listening to the soothing sound of the winds in the pine trees .
I'm getting a little excited now . What clothes should I wear ?
Take some thick clothes with you . It is rather cold there at night . If you wear the T-shirt you're wearing now , you will become a ' popsicle ' .
Anything else I should bring ?
If you like taking pictures , you may bring a camera with you .
Does it look too small ?
It fits you to a T .
I agree . I'm going to buy it .
Cash or charge ?
I'll charge it .
Sign here , please .
There you go .
hi , Natasha , how's life ?
great . My family came to visit me .
oh , you must be very happy . How many people are there in your family ?
my immediate family is very large . It's my mother , my father , my two older brothers , my younger sister and me .
I have a small family . They are my parents , my younger brother and me .
I thought you were the only child in the family . Didn't China practice the only-child policy in the early 1980s ?
yes , it did . But my parents are ethnic minority people . It's a preferential policy for an ethnic minority family to have two children .
interesting . What do you think about families with only one child ?
the child must feel very longly . My younger brother is 10 years younger than me . Before he was born , I used to be the only child and always dreamed that I would have a younger sister or brother one da
do you get along well with each other ?
yes , we are very close . He is 12 years old and very smart . He always makes us laugh a lot .
you are very lucky to have such a nice family .
Mary , how was your date with john ?
it's ok . It seems we have a lot in common .
oh , really . That is great news . What does he look like ?
he is tall and slim , fair-haired .
sounds like he is pretty cute . What do you think of him ?
he is a nice guy and very considerate . I was impressed with how smart he was and he has a great sense of humor .
oh , it's love at first sight . When will you see each other again ?
he didn't say , but he said he would call me .
maybe he is busy with his work . Just wait and try not to think about it too much !
oh , steve . Stop it ! I am a bit nervous ! What if he doesn't call ?
come on , Mary , you're a total catch . I bet he will call you . Don't worry .
thank you , Steve . You're always so encouraging .
Wow , you ' re up early today ! What ' s for breakfast ?
Well , I felt like baking , so I made some muffins .
Smells good ! I ' ll make some coffee . Do you want me to make you some eggs ?
Sure , I'll take mine , sunny side up .
Www , I don ' t know how you can eat your eggs like that ! Ever since I was small , I ' Ve had eggs and soldiers .
You know , my dad had scrambled eggs every morning for twenty years . It drove my mom crazy !
You know what really drives me crazy ? When I ask for soft boiled eggs , and they overcook them , so they come out hard boiled ! How can you dip your toast into a hard boiled egg ?
You ' re so picky sometimes .
Here you go , honey , fried eggs .
Don't you have too much to do with him .
Why not ?
His father is a prisoner .
I am in hot water now , all the things seem to be blown up .
Don't be scared . Bite the bullet and everything will be right again .
What is your salary now ?
My present pay is RIB 3 , 000 yuan each month .
What's your expected salary ?
What is important to me is the job and the people who I will be working with , so regarding salary , I leave it to you and I am sure that you will make me a fair offer .
I can offer you 5 , 000 yuan per month . Raises are given after three months ' probation period according to your performance . Is this satisfactory ?
Yes , it is quite satisfactory . I accept it .
Any question about the work ?
To whom should I report ?
The general manager of your section .
What are the benefits ?
We'll offer that on holidays .
I would like to know if there would be any opportunity to work abroad in the future ?
Yes , we have inspection abroad .
Thank you . Then I think it's time for us to sign a letter of intent .
I like the kid . He's so lovely .
How old is he ?
That new Sony camcorder you've got is just beautiful .
Yeah . It is the very latest in digital video cameras .
I can see digital video products are quickly going mainstream with their plunging price .
Getting cheaper is not the only reason for their popularity . They come with a lot of inviting functions .
Such as ?
They offer clearer and sharper images . Many of them also have up to 20x optical zoom lenses , a photo mode and fast-action mode .
They are very compact and are designed to be used with one hand .
Right ! Anyway , the basic difference between a digital camcorder and its traditional counterpart is that it speaks digital .
What does this mean ?
This means digital camcorders can be connected with the digital equipments you have at home , like your digital TV or your computer .
I can transfer my home video clips from my camcorder to my computer for editing .
Sure ! And without any conversion process or loss of quality ! You quickly find , cut , and record video segments and create slide shows . Some camcorders even offer editing software for adding titles and special effects .
What special effects ?
Like creating a sepia tone look and some special effects such as fades and dissolves .
That's great !
With the development of the broad band Internet , you can easily upload your video files to websites or e-mail them to relatives or business partners .
Look ! This picture of Mom in her cap and gown .
Isn't it lovely ! That's when she got her Master's Degree from Miami University .
Yes , we are very proud of her .
Oh , that's a nice one of all of you together . Do you have the negative ? May I have a copy ?
Surely , I'll have one made for you . You want a print ?
No . I'd like a slide , I have a new projector .
I'd like to see that myself .
Have a wallet size print made for me , too .
You are late .
I'm sorry , it was too cold , and my car couldn't start . I had one to the garage with the heater . I tried to call you , but you couldn't get connection .
Couldn't get connection ?
Yes , your number is out of service .
Really ? I didn't know . Let me check . You're right .
So I couldn't get through .
It's a serious problem . I make expecting an important call . The theater is guilty . It supposed to call me this evening , and discuss my play . What were happened if they can't reach me ?
Hello , Dana Okro .
Hello , Dana , this is Kevin Abrahams from Eureka Corp . I don't know if you'll remember me but we met last week at the Chamber of Commerce luncheon .
Oh , yes . Hi , how are you ?
Great . Do you have a few minutes right now for me to tell you a little bit more about the data management tools our company has to offer ? It won't take long .
Actually , I'm really swamped right now and I'll be going into a meeting in a few minutes . Is there any literature you can send me ?
Oh , sure , I understand . I'd be happy to send you a promotional packet about the programs that I think might best suit a company of your size . Would it be okay if I called again to see if you have any questions ?
Let's do this . Since I'm not sure when I'll get a chance to read the material , why don't I give you a call if I have any questions . Now , I'm really sorry , but I have to get going to this meeting .
No problem at all . I won't keep you any longer . I'll put a package to you in the mail and we'll go from there .
Sounds good .
Thanks for your time .
Can you give me a ride back home ?
Sarah . You look terrible . What's wrong ?
My grandmother just passed away .
I'm so sorry to hear that . When did this happen ?
A couple of days ago . I just go back from the funeral .
Is there anything I can do ?
No ... not really . The sad thing is that I wasn't there when she died . I really wanted to be there one last time .
I'm sure she knew you loved her . Did she pass away in the hospital ?
Yeah . She died in her sleep .
I'm sorry she's gone .
At least she didn't suffer .
I think your grandmother would want you to think of all the good times you spent together .
I know . But I miss her .
When my grandmother passed away , I frequently visited her in the cemetery . I always talked to her . Even though she wasn't there , I somehow knew she heard what I said .
Yeah ? That's what I was thinking too . Thanks .
It looks like you haven't eaten anything all day . We should get you something to eat .
Good evening .
Good evening . My wife and I would like a room , please . Is there any room available ? We don't have a reservation .
Let me see . Yes , we have one room left . You're lucky . It's the last one .
Good . We're tired after driving all day , and we're looking forward to relaxing in a comfortable room .
This room has two double beds . It's number 56 at the rear of the motel . It's quite a comfortable room .
How much is it for one night ? We only need it for tonight . We're going to continue our trip in the morning .
It's forty-five dollars a night for two . Is anyone else traveling with you ?
No , it's just the two of us .
Would you like to pay for the room in cash or with a credit card ?
Credit card . We don't like to carry much cash with us on our trips .
Please fill out this registration card . Here is your key . You can park your car in front of our room . Check - out time is noon .
Thank you very much .
Where do these flower vases come from ?
They are made a town nearby . The flower vases are made of porcelain and covered with tiny bamboo sticks .
Are they breakable ?
No . They are not only ornamental , but also useful .
That looks like an interesting book .
It is . It ' s got pictures of interesting building from all over the world , with brief descriptions of how they were build , their purpose , and so on .
There are the pymeids . It ' s easy to see how they got that name ! they don ' t have smooth sides though .
They don ' t now , but most of them did originally . There ' s picture of the pentagon in the United States . It ' s very distinctive with its five sides .
Look at that cylindrical office building . I ' Ve never been seen one that shape before .
Yes . Usually only towers are cylindrical in shape .
Tv towers are usually thicker at the bottom than at the top . They ' re not perfectly cylindrical .
This is the world ' s largest sports stadium . It ' s a massive oval .
What sports do they play there ?
It says here that it ' s mainly used for big football matches and athletics meetings .
Is that building a perfect cube ?
According to the book , it is . I ' Ve never seen a building that is a perfect cube . Look at the building . From the air , it looks like a square with a semi-circle attached to each of its four sides . What kind of building is it ?
I can look anybody in the face because I ' Ve done nothing to make me feel guilty or something .
There are not so many people like you .
My wife's birthday is today . I need some flowers .
We have lots of fresh red roses .
How much do the roses cost ?
$ 20 a dozen .
That sounds good . Last year I paid $ 30 .
Yes , you came here on the right day . They're on sale today .
Give me a dozen .
Very good . Would you like anything else ?
No , I'll just give her the roses and a card .
Melissa ? I ' d like to invite you to my wife ' s birthday party .
Thanks , Frank . I ' d love to come . When is it ?
Her birthday is on the 9th . We ' re going to have dinner at a Mexican restaurant , and then maybe go out dancing .
How many people are there in your family ?
There are 15 people in my family .
What did you say ? How many ?
15 people .
Wow . That is a very big family . Do you all live together ?
Of course we do ! My father's parents , Mum , Dad , three unmarried aunts , two uncles , my two brothers , my three sisters and me .
But you don't live at home anymore .
Right , but that's where my heart is . But you're right , now there are only 14 living at home .
My goodness ! Your family must live in a huge house .
Yes . My family lives in rural Korea , near Pusan . We have a huge house . The first floor of the house is a part-time private school . In the afternoon , students come for special tutoring in biology , Englis
Wow ! you grew up in a school ! No wonder your English is excellent !
My aunts and uncles are all teachers .
You are so lucky !
I guess so . While growing up , I read hundreds of interesting English storybooks every year .
That's what i did in America . I was reading all the time . I was never a big TV watcher . TV wastes time .
I agree . Reading for fun is why all the English students at our family school have excellent English . All the students read 800 easy storybooks during their second year of studying English .
800 books ? I'm impressed !
What can I do for you , madam ?
I'd like to buy a toy car for my son .
How about this one ?
It looks nice . How much is it ?
They're three hundred dollars .
Oh , I'm afraid it's too expensive . Can you show me something cheaper ?
OK , This one is one hundred and twenty . It's the cheapest here .
OK , I'll take it . Here's the money .
What can I do for you , sir ?
I am Tim Green in Room 1021 and I want a wake-up call at five thirty AM tomorrow .
Yes , I see . five thirty AM Mr . Green , Room 1021 .
I want to change my wake-up time .
Ok , could you tell me your room number and your name ?
Tim , in Room 1021 .
And when would you want us call you this time ?
At six thirty AM tomorrow .
Can you read what this says ?
Yes , and you could too if your hair wasn't hanging down in your face .
Don't dis my hair ! I like it like this .
You like it , but it's getting to be a handicap for you .
Hey , that's enough about my hair .
I know a great hairdresser not far from here and she is cute too .
I don't go to hairdressers because they're cute .
John , could you come to my office ? I need to talk to you .
Sure . I'll be there as soon as I finish this document .
No . Come here right now .
OK .
What's the matter ?
I'm sorry to say that we have to let you go , John .
Why ? I work very hard .
Well , you're working very hard but not efficiently . And you don't work well with other employees .
Well , some of those other guys are not the same kind I'd like to communicate with , but if that's important to you . I'll try to get along with them .
I'm afraid it's too late . We are downsizing our workforce and you'll have to go .
It's unfair .
We can give you the option of residing rather than being fired , because it will look better on your resume when you apply for another job if you resign .
OK . I need to think about that for a while .
What are the branches of Operations ?
Operations is made up of Manufacturing , Materials , Shipping and Distribution etc .
It seems that it is a key department for providing materials and transportation .
What was that ?
I said , " Is there anything I can do ? "
If it's not too much trouble , I would like some help .
Jim , what do you think of that first interviewee ?
Well , he looked sharp and he came across as a very confident guy .
Okay , what about the first woman ?
She looked a little rough around the edges but had great skills .
All right , and what about the older gentle ?
He was very distinguished , maybe a bit over-qualified .
Ohhhh . I hate this part of my job .
I want to subscribe to The New York Times . How do you feel about it ?
It's one of the top papers in America .
Hi , Kate .
Hi , Don . What a surprise !
Yeah , I saw someone walking like you , but I wasn ' t sure . We haven ' t seen each other for how long ? Almost three months ? But you look quite different now .
Have you noticed what has changed ?
Oh , you look quite slender and more vivacious . What have you been taking ? Are you on a diet ?
Yes . I ' m on a diet , but I ' Ve not taken anything . I just eat less and exercise more . And it really worked in the past three months . I ' Ve lost twelve pounds .
Wow ! That ' s great . I sincerely want to achieve my weight loss goals , but it ' s difficult for me to keep up the exercise . Also you know , old habits are hard to break .
What kind of exercise do you think I do ? I just go to dance everyday after work . I ' m taking an amateur dance class . I dance two hours everyday .
Dance ? You only go dancing ? That ' s not hard . I can do that .
How do I know what forms to fill out for unemployment ?
There is a special form to apply for unemployment benefits .
How do I get the form to apply for unemployment benefits ?
You can go online to begin the application process .
What type of information will I have to provide to the Employment Development Office ?
You need to be able to say whom you worked for and when .
Will they need anything else from me ?
You should be able to provide a layoff notice or proof of severance .
What should I do after I turn in the application ?
Can I help you ?
Yes . When is the next train to New York City ?
Let me see ... the train to New York City ... here it is ... daily except Sunday at 10 thirty , 12 twenty and 15 ten .
Aren't there any trains before 10 thirty ?

Everything is OK now , doctor .
That was quick work . Let me have a look at it . Yeah , everything looks fine now . Thank you very much .
You are welcome , doctor .
How much do I owe you ?
The total is 87 dollars . Here is the bill .
Room service . What can I do for you ?
Excuse me . Can you tell me where l can buy a notebook and a pen ? I need them badly .
Here is a shop in the hotel . It's on the 11th floor .
That's quite convenient . Well , would you please buy me some ? I am so busy . My room number is 304 .
Can I leave early today ?
Sure . I don ' t mind .
And can I come in late tomorrow ?
I don ' t see why not .
And may I take Friday off ?
Go ahead . It ' s OK with me .
One more thing . Would you give me a ten-dollar raise ?
How are your Chinese lessons going ?
Oh I ' m learning very slowly . I think Chinese is more difficult than English .
Well I guess you have fewer characters but I think Chinese grammar is easier .
Maybe , but I think people usually learn English more quickly than Chinese .
Yes , I guess basic speaking in the English is easier .
Come on in . Let me show you around . Here ' s the living room .
Great . The view from this window is wonderful .
This is the kitchen .
It looks new .
Yes . We just renovated a few month ago .
I like it .
Here ' s the master bedroom .
Wow , it ' s nice . What did you say about the rent ?
$ 900 a month .
Does that include utilities ?
Yes . It includes electricity , water , gas and cable , but the telephone is extra .
When will it be available ?
The end of this month .
I like it a lot but I need to talk with my wife . Can you hold it for me for two days ?
Sure .
What's going on here ?
You mean , what's happening ? Well , constable , I'm trying to get out of the windowand Fred here is helping me .
Why are you climbing through the window and not leaving by the front door ?
Well , you see I can't find the key and I'm in a hurry . Come on , Fred , We're wasting time .
Just a minute you two . I don't think you're telling me the truth . This isn't poorhouse , is it ?
No , it's my brother's . I'm staying with him for a while .
Is he at home ?
How did you meet your boyfriend , Cindy ?
We were in the same science class last term .
Who made the first move ?
I did .
Wow !
It was no big deal .
What do your parents think of your dating a boy ?
They're glad that I finally got a boyfriend .
Boy , come here !
Yes , sir ! What can I do for you ?
Bring me a cup of coffee , please .
Will you have it strong or weak ?
This is what my boss is expecting , Sandy . He wants a detailed list of expenses and equipment costs .
That ' s going to take a while to put together , Paul .
The sooner , the better , Sandy . I don ' t think he ' ll sign anything till he ' s got that in his hands .
Bobby ! Come here , look what I got you !
What is that ?
A chess board ! Daddy is going to teach you how to play !
Cool !
Ok , each player gets 16 pieces . You can be the white ones and I ' ll play with the black pieces . Now in the front , you set up the pawns . Those are the least valuable pieces and can only move one space forward . When you are about to capture another piece , it can move one space diagonally .
What about all these other pieces ?
See this one that looks like a tower ? It ' s called the rook . The one with the tall hat is called the bishop . See this little horsey ? This is called the knight , it ' s a very important piece so it ' s best to not let your opponent capture it .
And these two ? They are husband and wife ?
That ' s right ! That ' s the queen and that ' s the king . If the other player captures your king , he will say " Check Mate " and the game is over ! Doesn ' t this sound fun ?
I'm looking for a white purse as a gift . Could you show what you have in stock ?
You are in luck . We just receive a shipment of several different styles of white purses .
They must be popular again this season .
Yes , I believe they are . Here are something that might interest you .
Wow . this is nice . I'll take this one . I guess if she doesn't like it she can return it , right ?
It's terrible how things have changed . You remember there used to be trees on all these hills .
Really ? There aren't many left now .
No , they've all been cut down and now all the soil is washing away .
Were there any animals in the forest ?
Peter , have you finished your English composition ?
No . But I ' m working on it .
Class starts in twenty minutes . You have to turn it in at the beginning of class today .
I know . I know !
Do you think you can finish it on time ?
Don ' t worry . I ' ll get it done very soon . I ' m almost finished .
You ' d better hurry !
Well , it would be a lot easier to finish if you stopped talking to me .
How do you do ?
How do you do ?
Do you mind if I introduce myself ? My name is Wang Li .
My name is Jim Jones . Are you coming for the interview ?
do you want to go out for dinner tonight ?
sure . Have you got anywhere in mind ?
I'm starving , so maybe we could go somewhere with large portions .
that Italian restaurant in the city centre always has large portions . Do you want to go there ?
I'm not really in the mood for Italian , actually . I was thinking of something a bit spicy .
if you want spicy food , then I'd recommend going to a Thai , Indian or Chinese restaurant . How about that Chinese buffet on Cowley Road ?
I really like that restaurant ; you get a lot for your money there . But , they've westernized their food , so it's not actually that spicy .
you're right . Most of their dishes have sweet sauces . We could try that Indian restaurant just down the road from us .
the Taj ? They're a bit expensive , but they do serve large portions of very hot food .
the Taj it is then .
shall we bring our own bottle of wine to save some money ?
they'll still charge us a corkage fee .
that's right . It'll probably work out to be about the same then anyway .
don't worry about money . I'll treat you tonight .
are you sure ? We could go Dutch .
no , I'll pay . It's my turn anyway . You paid last time .
I think it's about time that we had to go .
What ? Won't you have more drinks ?
I'd love to , but I have to get up early tomorrow and get to the office on time .
Oh ! I'm sorry , but I wish you could stay .
Thank you for a very enjoyable evening and your hospitality .
Driving during the rush hours can be a bit of a bind .
Yeah . I think so . You have to be patient and careful .
So I'd rather walk or run to work .
What do you do in your spare times ?
I have many hobbies . I like almost all kind of sports , and I also like to listen to classical musics .
What sports do you like best ?
Football . It's a very exciting game , because it keeps you alert , and I also enjoying the team spirit of football .
Do you like reading books ?
Yes . I enjoying reading biographs , especially those of well-known statesmen , militarists and artists , I can learn a lot from their life histories .
Who are you favourite authors ?
Mary , Pam and I are going to the mall later to buy some new clothes . Do you want to come ?
Can you say it again slowly ?
Pam and I are wondering if you'd like to go to the mall with us .
Oh , I see . I'll have to sink about it .
Sink ?
Oops . I meant , " think "
Mary , you're going to have to work on your pronunciation .
I know .
Do you take in students ?
Yes . If you don ' t mind sharing room , there ' s one available .
How much is it ?
$ 30 . 00 a week .
Do you think I could have a look at it , please .
I would love to be famous and have thousands of adoring fans .
Really ? I ' m not sure that I would like all the attention . There have been numerous cases of paparazzi interfering with star ' s private live in recent years .
I love being photographed ! If I were famous , I ' d do interviews for all the top magazines , like cosmo and elle .
I wouldn ' t mind having my photo taken a few times or being interviewed once or twice , but it would get tedious after a while . Imagine the things the gossip columnists would write about you .
No-one really believes gossip columnists .
I think you ' ll find that many people believe what they read in gossip columns . You ' d also have to be very careful about every word you said . If you appeared on a chat show and said something silly , it
I think you ' re right about that . I ' d need a good manager to be my spokesperson . I could do a lot of charity work , which would help a lot of people .
That ' s a great idea . Which charities would you support ?
I love children , as you know , so probably a children ' s charity .
You ' d have to remember that anything you said or did might reflect on the charity , so you ' d really need to be very careful . Anyway , I ' d be the first to buy your posters and I ' d attend your first book -
So that will be one teddy , two terry cloth robes , three pairs of satin slippers , and two pairs of pajamas .
Does all that come to 10,000 NT ?
Let me see ... yes , 15,880 NT . After the discount , your total comes to 12,704 NT . Here's your free teddy bear , free panties and your card application .
Where do I sign ?
Right here . And write your address . You'll get the card in the mail within a week .
OK .
I know your friend will like the gift set , especially the teddy bear .
Well , the teddy bear is for me !
( At the MET station ) Hurry up ! We are running late for school .
Let's take the MET . lt's faster and cheap .
Which line should we take if we go to Danshui ?
We should take the red line . Let's get the tickets at the automatic vending Machine .
How much money should I insert in the slot ?
5o dollars . Later you have to place your ticket near the sensor .
I see .
It's so crowded . All the seats are taken . Let's go there . There is a seat over there .
It's a priority seat . We can not sit there . We should give the seats to those eld , pregnant and disabled people .
Yeah , you are right . Let's stand . It takes only about 20 minutes .
If we go to Danshui in the morning on A weekday , we are sure to have seats since it's not during rush hour .
May I help you ?
Yes . I'm looking for a green dress .
What size do you wear ? These dresses are on sale .
I wear size 32 . This one looks nice . Where may I try it on ?
Come this way . Here's the dressing room .
How does it look ?
It looks nice . And it's not expensive .
How much is it ?
It's only $ 20 .
Julia , I apologize to you for what I have done . Please forgive me .
I've already forgiven you . Actually , I also owe you an apology . I was so rude to you that day .
It does ' t matter . I know that people are easy to get mad when they're tired .
Thanks for your understanding .
I take care of the letters . I may read , sort out and organize incoming mails .
So you have to open all the envelopes .
Yes , except the personal mail . And I also need to prepare the materials for posting and check the e-mail box regularly .
Do you need to file copies of the letters before sending them ?
Have you been coming to this Laundromat long ?
I have been washing clothes here since a few years ago .
Why is that ?
It doesn't cost me as much to wash here .
I've just started doing my clothes here .
Why are you washing your clothes here now ?
My washing machine broke down .
You should just pay someone to fix it .
It's too expensive to get it fixed .
So you're just going to wash here ?
Yeah , I think that's what I'm going to have to do .
How long will it take for our order to be delivered ?
Let's see ... You are importing fifty containers of textiles from China . They should be able to place your order before the end of next week . It will take 2 days for shipping to the port city of Ningpo . The freight will take 3 weeks on the open ocean , and will arrive in Los Angeles approximately a month from today . Domestic shipping will be your responsibility , you can make arrangements with the pier in Los Angeles .
Fine . We will handle domestic shipping , but what about customs ? Will we have to pay tariff on our imports ? I hope we don't run into any problems with the border control .
We'll take the route No . 10 .
Fine . How many people are there in your party ?
Just two . How much does the trip cost ?
$ 200 for double .
Is there any chance of a lower price ?
Do you have any more questions ?
No , sir .
Let's call it a day then . Good - bye , everyone .
Hi , Stephanie . I hear you have a new job .
Yes , I'm teaching math at Lincoln High School .
So how do you like it ?
Well , the salary is a little low , but the students are nice . How are things with you ?
Not bad . You know I'm an air traffic controller now .
Now that's an exciting job ! ! !
Isn ' t he the best instructor ? I think he ' s so hot . Wow ! I really feel energized , don ' t you ?
I swear , I ' m going to kill you for this .
What ' s wrong ? Didn ' t you think it was fun ? !
Oh , yeah ! I had a blast ! I love sweating like a pig with a bunch of pot bellies who all smell bad . Sorry , I ' m just not into this health kick .
Oh , no , get off it . It wasn ' t such a killer class . You just have to get into it . Like they say , no pain , no gain .
I am wiped out . Thank you .
Look , next time get yourself some comfy shoes . You ' re gonna come back again with me , aren ' t you ?
Never ! But thank you for inviting me .
Well , how did you enjoy your seaside trip ?
It was fun , I tell you .
Tell me about it , will you ?
Well , we drove through the valley on our way there in the morning . It was a magnificent sight !
Did you stop at the Fall for some pictures ?
Sure , we wouldn't miss that for anything . After that , we took a short cut to the park . There was very little traffic , so we got there in less than an hour .
You were lucky then .
Yeah , we spent the whole morning under the tall trees . We had our picnic there , too .
What did you do after that ?
We went for a swim in the sea . That was the biggest part of the day . Just look at my nice tan !
So you must have had a busy and enjoyable day yesterday .
Have you ever noticed that serious pollution in modern cities goes from bad to worse ?
You said it . We ' er breathing poisonous air every day .
I think it ' s time for the government to take strong action . And people should try to protect environment .
May I see your boarding pass ?
Here you go .
48C . It's on your left hand side .
Thank you .
Please fasten your seat belt , miss .
Oops ! I forgot .
Also , please place your carry-on luggage either under your seat or in the overhead compartment .
I think I'll put my bag in the overhead compartment .
Hello , this is my passport .
What's in your bags ?
Those are something gifts I bought for my friends .
Would you mind opening it ?
Hi , Helen . Where are you going on this summer vacation ?
I'm going to Disneyland .
Hi Barbara . Have you lost weight ?
Hi Julie . Yeah . I've been on a diet for a couple of months now .
Wow . You look great .
Thanks for noticing .
What type of diet were you on ?
I joined a health club and my trainer gave me tips on eating . With a combination of eating better and exercising , I managed to lose 15 pounds in 2 months .
That's amazing . What tips did your trainer give you ?
Mostly on how to exercise , but the best advice I got was changing my eating habits . Instead of eating 3 times a day , she told me to eat 5 times a day .
That doesn't make sense . If you eat more , than how do you lose weight ?
Actually , I'm eating the same amount . I eat 5 smaller meals a day . Basically , it naturally speeds up the metabolism and helps to burn fat at a faster rate .
That makes sense . I'm going to try that .
You don't need to lose weight .
I have a little gut I have been trying to get rid of .
Ah ... but remember to incorporate a little exercise into your diet .
Thanks for the advice .
I ' d like to be fitted for a suit please .
Certainly . Have you decided which material you would like the suit to be made from ? We have a selection of materials over here .
Well , I thought that I would choose either this one or that one . I really want a dark blue suit . Which do you recommend .
This material is a little more expensive , but is of much higher quality .
Yes . I can feel the difference in material . There ' s not much difference in price . Ok , I ' ll take the more expensive one .
Fine . I ' ll measure you for the suit ... shoulder ... waist ... inside leg ... forearm ... upper arm ... thank you . I ' ll prepare the suit for you tomorrow . Could you come again the day after tomorrow just to check that the su
That ' s fine . I would also like a few shirts and a jacket . I don ' t need them specially made . Those shirts over there look very nice . Are they made of cotton ?
Yes , they are . How many would you like and of which color ?
I ' ll take three light blue ones , please .
Are you looking for a casual jacket or something formal ?
Just a casual one - a sport jacket . This one looks nice . I ' ll just try it on ... yes , that ' s fine . I ' ll take it . Here ' s my credit card .
Thank you very much , sir . I ' ll put the shirts and jacket into a bag for you .
What did you say when she told you the news ?
I calmed up . And finally , I asked her to chew the cud for such an important decision . I could not have the heart to disappoint her with a blunt refusal .
But I put my foot down and insisted on her forgetting that .
I think that show biz stars have a really easy life . They have lots of money , so they can buy almost anything they want . They ' re famous , so everyone loves them .
I think they must have horrible lives . All the paparazzi take photos of them wherever they go and whatever they do . They must get sick of it .
I bet they love it really . Sure , they complain about it , but that just gets them more publicity , doesn ' t it ?
I think that few of the show biz stars want any publicity for themselves . They only want it for their films .
No way ! They want publicity for themselves , so that they get invited to make more films , go to lots of cocktail parties , and even make albums ! They have such an easy life . They don ' t even pay for drinks when they go to a cocktail party .
Show biz stars have plenty of expenses . That ' s why they need so much money . They need million of dollars to buy big , seclude houses and wonderful dresses . I bet most show biz stars would prefer to wear jeans and a t-shirt , but they can ' t because their managers force them to wear clothes they don ' t like .
I don ' t understand how you can have any sympathy for show biz stars . They ' re overpaid , over-ambitious , and over-adored .
I think you should give them some credit . They ' re very talented people and they deserve all the money they earn . They even donate money to charity to help people who are less fortunate than themselves .
Good news !
What is it ?
The state of economy is starting to go up in our country .
Hey , Karen . Look like you got some sun this weekend .
Yeah ? I guess so . I spent the weekend at beach .
That ' s great . Where did you stay ?
Some friends of my parents live out there , and they invited me there .
So , what did you do out there ? I mean besides bask in the sun , obviously .
I jogged up and down the beach and played volleyball . You know I never realized how hard it is to run on sand . I couldn ' t get through a whole game before I had to sit down .
Not to mention cooler . Did you go swimming ?
I wanted to , but the water is too cold , and I just wetted in up to my knees .
It all sounds so relaxing . I wish I could get away to the beach like that .
We're having a sixties party next week . Do you want to come ?
What is a sixties party ?
You come dressed in anything from the sixties .
That sounds like fun . But where can I get clothes that old ?
Check out your mom's closet . I'll bet she still has something .
Good idea . Can I bring some music from that period too ?
That will be great ! Do you have LPs or Cds ?
I am sorry . I ' Ve left my disk at home .
Why did the teacher criticise Myra in front of the whole class ?
Because Myra was cheating on exams . and she spoke back rudely .
I'm here to express my congratulations to you on your birthday . And I wish you many happy returns of the day . Here is a birthday present for you .
He dresses in plain clothes and drives an old car . Who would know he is the richest man in town ?
Hey Michael . Where are you going ?
No where special . I was just taking a walk .
What for ?
To get a little exercise . I'm so out of shape .
Hey , I play basketball with a bunch of friends twice a week . It's great exercise and it's fun too . Why don't you come out and play with us ?
Let's have seafood tonight and then go see the new movie at Mall Cinema . Betsy told me it's a beautiful love story and I shouldn't miss it .
Oh , Goodness , please not again . That ' s what we did last week .
No , we didn't . Last week we went to see that movie about a man's struggle against mental illness .
Right , it was a chick flick , just like this one , so what's the difference ? Besides , this is the last week for the third movie in Destroyer series and I want to see that on a big screen . Action movies need to be seen in a theater on a big screen .
Oh , yeah , and I did promise to see it with you if we went to that movie last week . But you liked that movie , didn't you ?
Oh , sure , it was great . I had popcorn for dinner and paid the price of a movie ticket to get a two-hour nap .
It wasn't that bad , and you're the one that insisted on skipping dinner . We went to an excellent restaurant .
That place doesn't have a single meat dish . Just fish and shellfish and you know I don't like fish that much .
And I don't like meat that much . The only meat I eat is chicken .
But when I pick the restaurant , we go to a place that has both chicken and fish . I always respect your food preferences .
Well , I suppose that , to be fair , you should get to pick the movie and we can go to a restaurant that serves meat .
Hello , let me introduce myself . I'm your new neighbor . My name is Andy .
Hi , Andy . I'm Judy . It's nice meeting you .
Nice meeting you , too .
Come over and visit when you have time .
Let's get together this weekend .
Recently I have been getting headache and my eyes come to see focus properly .
When did you last time have your eyes checked ?
Two years ago . At that time I had no problems . Now I can ' t even make out something ten meters away .
Come over here . I will test your eyes . First cover your left eye like this , and when I point , please read the chart from the top , and go as far as you can telling me which way the " E " points .
All right .
Good . Now the other eye .
Well , this one is worse .
Never mind , just read as far as you can .
Excuse me . May I see that laptop for a moment ?
Sure . You mean this one ?
No , the one on the left . Yes , that ' s the one . ... Thank you .
It ' s a state-of-the-art piece of equipment , sir . With a gigantic 16 . 1 USGA TFT screen , 2 . 8 Ghz mobile processor , generous 512 MB RAM , removable 80 GB hard drive , convenient CD-RW / DVD combo drive , stunning fast graphics board with 64 MB DDR DRAM , dual battery capability , integrated Fast Ethernet card , IEEE 1394 digital interface and eight USB ports , it has all the power of a desktop computer packed into an ultra-slim notebook !
That ' s impressive ! What ' s the sale price ?
Let ' s go to WAngFuJing by bus .
Better take the subway . It ' s faster and more convenient .
Okay . It will be a new experience for me .
We have a rather comprehensive subway system here . we can get almost anywhere rather quickly on the subway . Especially at this time of a day when the traffic is heavy .
where do we pay the fare ?
Just give the man standing there three yuan and he'll give you a token . Then you slip it into slot at the turnstile and push the turnstile to get in .
Let me pay for it .
Where can I get the subway Madam ?
Ask the worker who sells token to give you one . It ' s free of charge . Actually maps showing subway routes are posted at most stations .
Do I have to pay additional fare to change train ?
Hello ! nice to see you here at the finest centre again . What exercises are you going to do today ?
I'm going to do some jogging on the treadmill . Then I think I'll do some work with the dumbbless .
Good idea . I'd suggest you do some crunches too . Thery're great for getting in shape . Make sure you do them correctly .
Ok . I will . Could you help me with the treadmill ? I found it difficult to get the setting right last time .
Sure . Is today only you second visit ?
Yes , it is . I'll be coming here regularly . I think I need regular exercise to get in shape and then to stay in shape .
The treadmill is excellent for helping you to build up stamina . Each time you use it , increase this distance . don't worry about your speed at first . You can increase that later .
I was told that the first time I came heer . I was told not to put too much pressure on my body at first . I need to build up slowly .
Hello ! This is Air China Booking Office .
Hello ! I'd like to reconfirm my flight reservation .
May I know your flight number , please ?
It's flight CA169 , which leaves Beijing at 8: 00 a . m . on January 20th .
Oh , yes . That's our regular flight to Nanchang . Would you please tell me your name ?
My name is Deng Li .
Yes , here you are . You're flying in economy class . Is that right ?
Oh , no . I'm sure I made a reservation for a first-class ticket .
Let me check . Now , your ticket is in order . Thank you for calling to reconfirm .
That's what I should do . And I don't want to lose it .
Quite right . If you don't confirm , the reservation will be cancelled 72 hours before the departure time . In order not to miss your flight , I think you should pick up your ticket as early as possible .
Alright , tell me what you think about this one .
Don't you think it's a bit bright ?
Yeah , maybe you're right . How about this outfit ?
That dress looks lovely on you , but it's not very practical , is it ?
No , I don't have any plans to go to a formal dance any time soon , but I love the way it looks . I just want to try it on ! What do you think about this ? It's casual , yet sophisticated .
I like the jeans , but you need something to go with the top . It's too plain on its own .
How about this scarf , these earrings , and an anklet ?
That might be going overboard a bit . How about just that scarf with a bracelet ?
That's a good idea . You have a lot of good fashion sense .
Thanks . You'd be OK on your own . There are loads of fashion victims out there , and you are not one of them . Have you tried it on yet ?
Yep . Here it is . What do you think ?
That looks great . Just one more thing-you need some high heels with those jeans . Do you want a pair with a plain pattern or ones with a leopard print on them ?
Did you promise me to get the bread ?
Well , I remember walking pass the baker shop .
But you forgot to get the bread .
I'm afraid so . I don't remember you telling me about it .
Well , I certainly did .
What would you let me do now ?
You are free . You can go now .
Really ? You are so kind .
I'll do with the cake .
Come in , come in , what can I do for you ?
Professor Donald , are you giving your advanced geology course again next semester ?
Yes , I am applying on it .
I wonder if I could enroll in it . I know it is a graduate course and I ' m a junior , but ...
Aren't you a bit young ? I have a lot of qualified seniors to take the course and they usually have a hard time keeping up .
I know , but geology of the American west is my major interest and I have done a large reading in the field .
Well , if you think you are ready , I'll let you enroll .
I can't believe the way our landlord cheated us .
I hope the teacher decides to curve our test grades .
I wouldn't count on it .
She did last time .
I think we should buy some souvenirs to take home .
Why not ? What about us doing it right now ?
Good idea . I noticed that on our way to the tower there are so many shops selling all kinds of souvenirs .
what do you think about all the different diets people go on ?
I don't think dieting is good for you . It's much better to eat a balanced diet and to never get overweight to begin with !
but what do you think about people who are obese ? What should they do to lose weight ?
they need to eat healthy foods , but they also have to increase the amount of exercise they do every day . They don't have to cut out fattening foods altogether , though .
so you think it's ok for people who are dieting to eat chocolate ?
sure , they can eat some chocolate . As long as they are exercising and eating mostly healthy foods , there's nothing wrong with having a small desert .
how about drinking soda ?
many people gain weight by drinking far too much soda . Soda should be a treat ; there's simply no nutritional value in it whatsoever . If you want to lose weight and you can't stop drinking soda , try
that's good advice . Have you ever tried taking vitamins ?
my mother used to make me take vitamins every day , but I don't take them anymore . Vitamins are good as a supplement , but they don't do much good if you don't have a well-balanced diet to start .
how do you know so much about food and dieting ?
You and Bob have finished ?
Yes .
Are you going to be okay ?
Let ' s play a game !
OK ! How about Scrabble ?
No , no , a friend of mine taught me this really fun game . I ' m going to describe someone ' s face , and you guess who it is !
OK !
Let ' s see . He has a roman nose , bushy eyebrows and dimples !
Our cousin Pete ! My turn ! She has a pointy nose , sunken eyes and a mole on her chin !
Aunt Rose ! That mole is so huge ! OK , my turn . He has a crooked nose and full lips . He has quite a few freckles and an oval face . Oh , he is also bald !
Your future husband !
Have you a wine list ?
Yes , the wine list is at the end of the menu .
Oh . I see . Don't you have Mao Tai ?
Sorry , sir , but I recommend you Bacardi White . It's quite delitous .
What can I do for you ?
I would like to use the copy machine .
The machine is over there .
Do I have to pay to use the machine ?
Yes , you will have to pay to use it .
How much ?
It costs ten cents a copy .
Am I limited to a certain number of copies ?
You can copy as much as you ' d like .
Could you show me how to use the copier ?
The instructions for the copier are posted on it .
Why do you want to go to the U . S . ?
I want to enrich my knowledge in management . The United States is an ideal place for me .
What will you do when you come home ?
Before I work in the office , I was a teacher . So if possible , I'd like to come back to some school to pass on my new knowledge to more people .
Do you feel your English is good enough for the course ?
Yes . You know , English is my present working language . Besides , I scored very high in TOEFL .
Who will be your supporter during your stay in the States ?
I will support myself . In recent years , I have saved enough money for my study in the U . S .
How long do you expect to stay there ?
Is everything ready for Billy ' s birthday party ?
Yes . I ' Ve finished making the birthday cake and I ' Ve put all the things on the table . Did you find the party hats ?
Yes , I did . I ' Ve put one on the table for each child . I put up the big " happy birthday " sign too .
Thanks . Do you think we have enough for the kids to eat and drink ?
I ' m sure of that . There ' s enough food here to feed an army !
That birthday cake looks wonderful , but you haven ' t put any candles on it yet .
Thanks for reminding me . I ' Ve prepared some party games for the children too .
I ' Ve brought a tape with lots of children ' s songs on it .
What in the world is that smell ?
The aroma of roasting coffee beans .
Smells like you're baking something . What are those ?
Green beans . They pop and turn brown when you roast them .
Cool ! But isn't that a hot air popcorn popper ?
This machine roasts the beans just right . If you roast them too long , or the temperature is too hot ...
Mom , I want to move out .
Hey , sounds great to me , kid . What kind of job did you find ?
Job ?
Yes , job . If you ' re going to live on your own , you have to pay for rent and everything else .
I thought I could just get you and Dad to pay for an apartment . I found a cheap one .
When you move out , your father and I aren ' t paying your rent , young man . Get a job .
You ' re right . If I ' m going to live on my own , I have to be independent .
Hello , can I speak to Mr . Green ?
Yes , speaking .
This is Steven speaking . I'd like to buy a stock .
What stock do you want to buy and how many ?
I'd like to buy 1 000 shares of Duson .
Let me get the asking price of the stock . Just a moment . Oh , now the asking price is $ 90 each share . By the way , what is the offering price ?
Let me see . The offering price is near or at $ 88 .
Then the difference between the asking price and the offering price is $ 2 . It's hard to take place today .
Do you mean that I have to buy it at current price ?
You can decide by yourself .
I heard that this stock would go up . Hum , I will take it at current price .
So , now I will buy you . Are you sure ?
My car has broken down . Could someone come right away and check it ?
Where are you now ?
I am on Route 80 , a few miles east of the University of Utah .
What does your car look like ?
Good afternoon , Mr . Dome ' s office .
This is Denise , Mr . Bruce ' s Secretary . I was calling to confirm his meeting tomorrow with Mr . Dome at 4 o ' clock .
Yes , it ' s confirmed for here in our office .
Is your address still 1150 Lake Road ?
Yes , that ' s correct .
Jennifer , would you like to have dinner with me ?
Yes . That would be nice . When do you want to go ?
Is today OK ?
Sorry , I can't go today .
How about tomorrow night ?
Ok . What time ?
Is 9:00 PM all right ?
I think that's too late .
Is 6:00 PM OK ?
Yes , that's good . Where would you like to go ?
The Italian restaurant on 5th street .
Oh , I don't like that Restaurant . I don't want to go there .
How about the Korean restaurant next to it ?
Good morning , I ' d like to book a flight from Beijing to Shanghai , please .
I see . When are you travelling ?
I ' d like to fly next Friday .
Is that a return journey or just one-way ?
One-way , please . I ' m flying back to London from Shanghai .
Ok . That will be 1400RMB please .
How long is the flight ?
Are you going out again ?
Yes , I'm going to the cinema , dad .
You mustn't go to bed very late . Can you be home before nine .
Oh , I won't be back so early . The film will be over at nine . Can I have the key to the bicycle ?
No . I won't let you ride a bicycle late at night .
Oh , dad , I'm not a child . I'm 17 already . I'll come back as soon as the film is over .
OK . Here's the key . Take care .
Room service . May I help you ?
Yes , the food you have just sent here is cool . Would you please heat them up ?
I am sorry for that . We will send someone to your room right now .
Hi Amy , you look very happy .
Yes , I'm very pleased . I've just got two tickets to see the Olympic opening ceremony .
Wow . You must be very excited .
I certainly am . I would have been very disappointed if I hadn ' t got them .
Shall we go to a restaurant to celebrate ?
What a good idea . I'm quite hungry .
Me too . I feel very thirsty as well .
Is there a lot of snow in this region at this time of the year ?
Yes , the snow is often falling thick and fast here .
Well , I think I like it . I appreciate the snow very much .
Yes , It's really so beautiful with all the things covered by snow .
By the way , where can I go ski ?
Did you see Victor on Wednesday , Wendy ?
Yes . We went for a walk in the woods near the highway .
Wasn ' t it cold on Wednesday ?
Yes . It was very cold and windy . We wore heavy wool sweaters and walked quickly to keep warm .
It ' s so nice and quiet in the woods .
Yes . Farther away from the highway it was very quiet and there were birds and squirrels everywhere . We counted over twenty squirrels .
It sounds wonderful . Did you take lunch with you ?
Good morning , Mr . Jones !
Good morning , Miss Bell !
Nice to see you again .
Nice to see you too . It ' s been a long time .
How is everything ?
Just fine , and you ?
Quite well , thank you .
Did you drive yourself to the airport ?
No , I was driven by my husband .
Did someone meet you at the airport here ?
Yes , thanks .
Is this where we'll be holding the meeting ?
What is this eviction notice for ?
The notice you received is a 30 - day notice to vacate .
Are you kidding me ?
I mentioned to you before that you need to keep up with your rent . This notice to evict is letting you know that I mean business .
You can ' t just throw me out on the street !
You have 30 days to catch up on your rent , or a sheriff will evict you .
Will you still throw me out if I make the rent payment ?
You can stay , but you might think about looking for a less expensive living arrangement if you are having trouble making the payments .
I am going to take care of the rent payment right now .
John dates her seven times a week .
Really ? That's a straws in the wind .
I think so . Maybe he's fallen for her .
Yeah . They suit each other . A perfect match between a man and a girl .
Diana , do you like the perfume I gave you ?
It ' s good . But to tell you the truth , I don ' t wear perfume .
I ' m sorry . I didn ' t know that .
Will you have time this Saturday evening to go to the cinema with me ?
Saturday ? Oh , I have a previous engagement .
What a pity ! Then how about Sunday ?
I've already got plans , too .
Then when do you think we could go out together ?
How about Friday ? Only in that day can I arrange it .
OK . Any time on Friday will be OK with me .
Want to join me for a midnight snack ? I need to grab something to eat .
Fine with me , but no more chafing dish .
Let's go to the food stall . There's a good one just around the corner .
I'd love to try some snacks .
( Later .. ) Everything looks tempting . What do you want to have ?
Kebabs and roast squid .
Can I have a bite ?
Help yourself .
Is there any way you can cut us a better deal on your wholesale price for this order ?
We did the best that we could to give you a low price . Did you get our recent estimate ?
Based on the estimate you gave us , by the time we figure in transportation and other expenses , our profit is short . With the offer you've given me , we're making next to nothing . Can ' t you do any better ?
I've already given you a discount of 20 % off of our normally charge . If I go any lower , we'll have loss on this project . I really want to work with you on this . But we've already gone as low as we can go .
I'll be honest with you , our budgeted cost can't exceed more than $ 150 per unit . That is our bottom line . If you can meet that price , you've got the deal . Otherwise ...
Isn't this lovely weather ? Will you help me water the flowers , Jack ?
Well , do you think I have to ?
I do . We haven't watered them for quite a few days .
Please look at the sky . Don ' t you see the dark clouds ? It's going to rain soon .
Good . So we don't have to work . How nice !
But I don't think it's so nice .
Why ?
The weather report says it's going to rain for a whole week .
I've had enough of that !
Why , this is the most interesting film !
I hate the hero . He ' s too cruel .
Did you check the internet for next week's weather forecast ?
I sure did . You're in luck ! It's supposed to snow all week in the mountains !
Yes ! Somebody up there loves me ! I knew it wasn't too late for snow .
It is kind of strange though , to have snow in April , and so much of it .
There have been so many dry winters lately that it's about time , don't you think ?
When you put it that way , I guess the skies can't hold out on us forever .
This will be the best ski trip I've ever taken . I can't wait to use my new hoard .
Gino , do you really need to go ?
Yeah , it's must for me .
But don't forget to give me a ring .
I won't , mom .
Take care of yourself .
I will . Bye , mom .
What's the time now ?
Sorry , I don't know , there's something wrong with my watch .
You've simply forgotten to wind it up , have you ? When do you usually wind it up ?
In the coming , before going to work .
You got up so late today . You have , I think . Turn on the TV and set your watch by it .
OK . I'll turn it on .
All right . It's just four o'clock .
Well , I'm setting my watch at four . Thank you .
Don ' t do that again . You are riding the tiger .
No problem . I can deal with it well .
You will ask for it .
Can you help me figure out how to use this vending machine ?
Yes , I would be happy to help . What do you want to buy ?
I want to buy that candy .
OK . So this machine will make change if you need it . Do you have your dollars ready ?
Yeah , so far , so good .
Next , you feed your dollars into the machine in the slot . Make sure they are smooth .
Yeah , I already knew that .
I'm sure you know that if the dollar gets stuck , you might have to re-feed it .
OK , let's move on !
Now you just make your selection and pray . If nothing comes out , try again or call the number on the side of the machine .
I hope it works !
Lisa , I'm home .
How was your day ?
Pretty good . I've made a few friends already .
Anybody I know ?
Well , Pam Franklin lives next door to us . By the way , can I go to her house this Saturday ?
Of course . You didn't have to ask me .
That's what Pam said .
Do you have any English newspapers ?
Yes , just over there .
I'd like to see some Mandarin textbooks too . Do you have any ?
Yes , they are just next to the newspapers actually .
Does your company have a large population ?
No , It is a middle-sized private company .
Do you have more than 200 employees in the company ?
Ashley , what a great dinner party !
Thank you , Joe . What would you like to drink with your meal ? I can offer you wine , mango juice , or water .
Just water would be fine .
Excellent choice . Can I dish you up some chicken ?
Yes , the chicken looks wonderful !
How about some salad to go with your chicken ?
Sure , I love salad !
Would you like to have rice with your chicken ?
Yes , I think that rice will go perfectly with my chicken !
Well , known , Jim , I'm ... I'm pretty much in favour of computers , I think computers teach kids to think , because they require logical thought .
But I ... I don't agree with that , because computers weaken kids ' ability to think , because kids don't learn basic skills .
What do you mean ?
They can't spell , they can't add , they can't subtract , they even don't remember any more . that ' s because they rely on gadgets .
I'd like to buy a fridge . What about the quality of higher products ?
I strongly recommend it . As an international enterprise , it produces high quality household appliances .
Is there a warranty ?
Yes , all their products have warranties .
How long is it ?
The fridges is covered by a one-year warranty .
Which model is the best seller of this year ?
This one . How do you like it ?
It's too big for me . Could you recommend something else ?
the bathroom looks lovely . Did you redecorate it yourself or did you get someone in to do it for you ?
I did it myself . I went online and found a lot of website devoted to home improvement . Then I went to DIY shop and bought everything I needed . I ' m sure I saved a lot of money by doing it mys
so , let ' s see . You have put new tiles on the floor and replaced a few tiles on the walls . You ' Ve also added a small cupboard for toiletries . The bath , shower and waterbasin are the sam
yes , they are . I gave them a good clean . They are in good condition and don ' t need to be replaced .
how long did it take you to do the tiling .
as I hadn ' t done it before , I had to keep referring to information I got from the internet . Doing the floor tiles took a whole day-from early morning to right through to the evening . The
I think you ' Ve done a very good job . As least as good as a professional would do . Perhaps I can convince you to redo my bathroom ?
I don't think the manager will get mad at you for being late .
I've something very unpleasant to talk with you . Upon the arrival of the first consignment , it was found that about 50 % of the sixty cases of pineapples were leaking .
It's rather an unusual case . Have you found the cause of leaking ?
It ' s simply because the tins were damaged .
It appears to be the only case to us , that the goods have been damaged on the way .
I am sorry to say it's not on the way , but during loading . The tins inside the cases were broken evidently through rough handling .
Could you offer us a certificate issued by your Health Department ?
Certainly . Here you are . Our health authorities said they were no longer suitable for human consumption . I have to remind you that our terms are CIF Hamburg . I hope you would indemnify us for the loss , so it wouldn't be so heavy on us .
Here ' s my passport . I'm a visiting scholar .
Do you have anything to declare ?
No , these are all my personal effects .
What's in the bag ? Would you mind opening the bag ?
Not at all . I don't know what's dutiable . Do I have to pay duty on things for my own use ?
No . You don't have to pay duty on personal belongings .
Excuse me . I'm afraid you're in my seat . You've moved my books .
Oh , dear .
You must have realized somebody was here .
Don ' t you think that ' s good idea to hold a party outside ?
I don ' t think so .
How about going to a concert ?
I want to say goodbye to everyone .
You ' re leaving so soon . When are you off ?
I ' m catching the nine fifteen train tomorrow morning .
how about I come and see you off ?
You really don ' t need to .
Ok . I ' ll miss you . I hope we can see each other again soon .
I hope so , too . Thank you , Lily . Thank you for everything .
You ' re welcome .
Please say goodbye to the rest of the family for me .
Ok . Take care . I hope you have a good journey .
Thank you . Remember to look me up if you ' re ever in Washington .
Of course . I will .
Have you heard of the Love Bug ?
Do you mean the ' I love you ' virus that attacks computers through e-mail ?
Yes . It is one of the most harmful computer viruses in the world . People say it will break out again om Valentines ' Day this year .
This is terrible . Why do hackers play such a dirty trick ?
Hackers are smart , and they want people to know about it .
May I come in ?
Come in , please .
I'm sorry to trouble you , but I'd like to ask when I will get a raise .
In 3 months or so .
You said the same thing three months ago .
Did I ? Well , anyway , you will get your raise when the economy starts picking up .
You mean that I won't get a raise until the recession ends ?
Yes .
I got the message . I'm quiting .
Nah , don't be so fast . We like your work here , but this company is on hard times . and I can't be handing out raises for anyone .
I've been here for 3 years , and I haven't had a raise in all that time . If you like my work , it should be reflected in my pay , and I feel it isn't .
I hear what you're saying , and I wish there were something I could do .
What's the matter ? You don't look well .
I am worried .
What about ?
My exam .
Oh , is that all ?
I feel very nervous about it .
Hello , this is United Airlines .
Hello , I want confirm my flight . My name is Jesse .
When is your flight ?
June loth .
One first class seat on flight YW132 , is that right ?
Yes , thanks . By the way , what time do I have to start check-in ?
When can I get high speed internet installed ?
You're going to have to make an appointment .
Can I make one right now ?
When would you like the installation to be done ?
I'm off this Friday .
The only time we can come on Friday is at 3
I'm going to need it installed earlier than that .
I'm sorry , but we're booked up on Friday .
Is Saturday any better ?
Saturday is perfect . What time would you like ?
Is 11
Your PC is so amazing . Are you doing trade on internet ?
Thank you for your compliment . I bought this PC with my first-month salary . I am getting to know the on-line trade .
I'm wondering if you often trade with others on the internet .
Yes , I often do business through internet now .
Oh , really ? Is it a good way ?
Yes , very gorgeous . Sometimes , I can deal with my business without stepping out of our house .
What advantages does it have ?
Firstly , it is convenient . And secondly , it has low cost , because you know you only need to pay the fee of internet service .
I agree with you . It will cost too much when going abroad to join the exhibition .
The most important is that it is very convenient . You know you can browse the website and send E-mails to your customers at any time . Even you can have e-contract with your regular customers .
So cool , if we do business through other ways , it will cost a lot of time .
Sure , but every coin has two sides . Doing business through the internet is not as safe as doing business through traditional ways .
Will you give me some suggestion ?
Of course , such as Alabama , which is a famous website .
Out of every movie that you've seen , which one is your favorite ?
I'm going to have to say that Superbad is the best movie ever .
You think so , how come ?
Well , Superbad is super funny .
You're not lying , I found that movie absolutely hilarious .
I didn't know that you saw Superbad before .
I made sure to be in line to see it the first day it came out .
I couldn't keep from laughing throughout the whole movie .
I was laughing hysterically the whole time ; my stomach muscles hurt afterwards .
That's exactly how I felt .
I got the movie when it came out on DVD , do you want to come over ?
Do you have any hobbies ? What is it or what are they ?
I am interested in watching TV or other relaxing games .
How do you spend your spare time ?
I usually read or entertain myself .
What kind of books are you interested in ?
My favorite books are those about detectives .
Well , those books are really good . I like them too . How do you entertain yourself ?
Well , I guess that ' s about it . Everything ' s packed and ready to go .
It ' s hard to believer you ' re really retiring . What are you going to do with yourself ?
Have fun ! I plan to spend some more time with my grandkids , and I might even go back to school .
There are something wrong with my computer .
Really , what's wrong with it ?
The computer doesn't work when I push the power cotton .
Oh , do you use your computer often ?
Yes , I don't know why it doesn't work this time .
Don't worry . Have you got receipt with you ?
Yeah !
We'll go to your house and repair it on Tuesday . Ok ?
OK , I'll expected you around 2 o'clock ?
ok , so what have you got in store for me tonight ?
I'm really sorry , Ethan . I tried so hard , but I'm afraid I could't find a Dutch restaurant in town . The best I could do was a German one about 15 minutes from here .
what ? I don't understand .
I though you said you wanted to have Dutch food ?
Oh ! Ha-ha ! That's not what I mean when I said ' go Dutch ' !
Huh ? What were you talking about , then ?
' going Dutch ' means to split the bill , silly !

What ' s the date today ?
December the fifteenth . The day after tomorrow is little Tom ' s birthday .
Right . What present should we give him this time ? By the way , how old is he ?
Thirteen today and tomorrow . Fourteen the day after tomorrow .
How time flies ! He ' s a big boy now .
And don ' t forget Mary , Tom ' s twin sister . It ' s her birthday , too .
What did he say ?
He said he would tell us the secret of becoming a successful man .
It ' s too good to be true ! If I were there , I would ask him if he himself was a successful man .
Hello , is this Professor Clark ?
Yes , I am Professor Clark .
Hello , Professor , this is Kalina , and I am in your literature class on Monday mornings .
Yes , how are you doing ?
I was partying hard over the weekend , fell down the stairs , and need time to recuperate .
That sounds painful . Are you going to be OK ?
I sprained my wrist , but the doctor says it will be fine .
How many days will you be out of school ?
The doctor said I should be good enough to return next week .
We're lucky today .
Yes , there aren't any clouds in the sky and we've got such a beautiful view here . Look ! This is St James Park . And there's Buckingham Palace
Where's Hyde Park ?
It's on the other side of the Palace .
That's the place where people make speeches on Sundays , isn't it ?
Yes , you're right . Politicians of all kinds , religious people , and one or two madmen .
Well , are we going there today ? I want to take shots there .
Sure . I can see you're enjoying your trip today .
Excuse me . Can I get a ticket on the next flight to Frankfurt ?
Sure . It will depart 2 hours later .
What's the fare for a single ticket ?
That's $ 150 .
Can you give me a special offer ?
Of course . Right now it is the slack season , we will give you ten percent off .
How about a round trip ? Could you offer us something more ?
Let's start to study how to use computers , Paler . It's good to know that a computer has two major parts , the hardware and the software .
What's the hardware ?
The hardware of computer is basically all the concrete things you can touch with your hands and see with your eyes .
That's seems obvious enough . Then what about the software ?
The software of computer is all the programmes inside the computer that allow you to use the computer to do things .
I see , actually the hardware is the easy part , I do want to study how to use the software .
Right you are , Paler , and since what you want to learn is how to use software , we should also learn to refer to the computer menus .
Hello ! Is your taxi engaged ?
No , this taxi is free .
Please take me to the Honging Hotel .
OK . Please get in . I'm glad to serve you .
Could you get there in twenty minutes ?
It will take half an hour to get to the hotel .
I am in a hurry . Please take a shortcut . I have a friend waiting for me .
OK , I promise we'll get there in twenty minutes .
Judy , have you ever made out how much money shall we spend ?
Oh , yeah . The total amount is no less than 13,000 RIB , according to our itinerary .
What ? That's too much .
Sit down . I'll show you the list of our financial budget . First of all , it is nearly 4,000 RIB that we should spend in transportation .
Ah , the transportation fee always takes a great part in the budget .
Then we must pay a large amount of money for the hotel . But if we want to save money , we can choose a hotel which is not so good .
Hmm , what I'm fearful of is that the accommodation will also deteriorate once we choose a cheaper hotel .
Is your lady beautiful ? Since I came here from the country , I've not seen her close . Tell me , is she beautiful ?
Thomas , if I could write with the beauty in her eyes , I was born to look in them and know myself .
And , her lips ?
Her lips ? The early morning rose would wither on the branch if it could feel envy .
And her voice like a lark's song ?
Deeper , softer , none of your twittering larks . I would banish nightingales from her garden before they interrupted her song .
Oh , she sings too ?
Merry Christmas , Bill !
Merry Christmas . Steven !
What do you want to do to celebrate Christmas ?
I'll have supper with my girlfriend and go shopping . What about you ?
I'll go to church first and then go to a Christmas party . Would you like to come ?
I'd love to . But I am going to meet my girlfriend right now . See you later .
London is such a historic city ! There ' s history everywhere you look . There ' s nelson ' s column , built as a monument to one of the Britain ' s great admirals and his important victory . He won the battle of
I ' m looking forward to seeing Westminster abbey , where many historic figures are buried , like Isaac Newton , the great mathematician and Winston Churchill , the great wartime leader .
Nearby , on the banks of the thames , there ' s the statue of Boadicea . She fought the Romans when they invaded Britain .
Women have often played an important role in british history . Queen Elizabeth I built a navy strong enough to fight off the Spanish armada in 1588 . more recently , Margaret thatcher transformed british
She was a very controversial leader . Are we going to visit the famous tower of London later ?
There ' s a lot to see there . Perhaps we should go tomorrow .
I ' m looking forward to seeing the famous castle and prison . Many historic figures were imprisoned there in the past . I really want to see the crown jewels too .
I ' Ve seen them before . They ' re quite incredible . If you want to see historical figures in London , there ' s one place you have to go .
Where ' s that ? Oh , I know ! Madame Tussaud ' s the waxworks museum .
There you can see british leaders , entertainers , criminals , and royalty .
Hi . What can I get for you ?
I ' d like a half a pound of ground beef , please .
Good choice ! Our ground beef is extra lean , if you know what I mean .
Could I also have half a dozen pork chops and two pounds of boneless chicken breasts ?
No , no no no chicken breasts at the moment , but we have some nice chicken thighs .
No , that won ' t do . I ' ll take this smoked ham you have here .
Okay , is there anything else ?
Is this salami and bologna you have here ?
Yes ! It ' s very fine meat ! Made it myself ...
Sounds good . Okay , that ' s it .
Wait ! We have T-bone , rib eye , and sirloin steaks . They are very fresh ! Just came from the slaughter house ...
Mmm ... No that ' s okay , really . I think that ' s all for today .
Did you hear ? The state is thinking of legalizing gambling in our city ! Soon we are gonna have amazing hotels and casinos here which will be good for our business !
Are you serious ? Gambling is a vice industry built on deception and fed by the intentional exploitation of human weakness for the sole purpose of monetary gain ! It disgusts me .
What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ?
Well , to begin with , Gambling is addictive , ruins marriages , destroys families and bankrupts communities . Once you are addicted it is very difficult to stop . People have lost their houses , cars and been left out on the street after becoming addicted . Secondly , it exploits because men become addicted to gambling most often because of the action and risk . Women gamble to escape , and senior citizens will start gambling for the social interaction . Underage gamblers often start gambling on sports with friends and then illegal bookies .
Geez ! Now that I think about it , maybe legalizing gambling isn ' t such a good idea ! Although , I have been to Las Vegas , and I didn ' t become addicted or anything like that .
What do you think of shopping ?
I don't mind shopping for food and other daily needs .
What do you think of big department store ?
It is high time you have a talk with him . That may help clear the mists .
I did , but he gives me a runaround .
If I were you , I would put the whole matter on the table .
Have you ever been to any other country ?
Pity I haven't . If I can afford it , I'll certainly take a trip abroad .
That's also my dream .
How about going to italy next summer vacation ?
Bell Captain . May I help you ?
Yes . This is Mr . Wang in Room 1305 . Please send up a boy to help me with my luggage .
Certainly , sir . How much luggage do you have ?
Well , two big suitcases and two small bags .
I feel dizzy and I have a headache .
How long have you been sick ?
What ' s the difference between football and rugby ?
Those tow games are quite different . First , there ' s the size of the teams . In football , a team has 11 players . In rugby there are 15 players on each team . The biggest difference is that in football , only the goalkeeper can use his hands . In rugby , the ball is usually carried forward by players , though kicking is permitted .
In rugby , players pass the ball by throwing it to team mates , don ' t they ?
That ' s right . However , players can only pass the ball backwards . They cannot pass the ball forwards to their team mates . That ' s a foul .
I know how goals are scored in football , but how about in rugby ?
If a team carries the ball over the goal line , they score points . A team can also score points by kicking the ball between two tall posts at each end of the pitch .
There ' s a lot more physical contact in rugby , isn ' t there ?
Yes . Players usually need to bring a player down to stop him from moving forward with the ball . This is called " tackling " , as in football .
The ball is a different shape in rugby , isn ' t it ?
Yes . It ' s not perfectly round like a football . A rugby ball is oval in shape . There ' s a match on TV this afternoon . Why don ' t you watch it with me ? I ' ll try to explain the rules and tactics while we ' re watching .
Well , we didn't ask for this room service maybe someone else ask it , I ' m sure .
Oh , is it ? Let me check .
Yes , please .
I'm sorry to say this room charge is yours .
We paid for the room service already in our room .
Do you have any evidences ?
I need to open an account .
Do you know what kind you want to open ?
I want a checking account .
Do you know what the minimum balance is ?
What is that ?
You need to keep it at $ 100 .
That ' s it ?
That ' s the least amount you can have .
What ' ll happen if I don ' t maintain that ?
We will fine you .
How much will I be fined ?
Didn ' t you punch in this morning , Monica ?
Sorry , I don ' t know the rule about punching .
That ' s ok . I should have told you earlier . This is a company rule .
Do we also need to punch out after work ?
According to the company rule , we should punch in before 8 o ' clock and punch out after 5 o ' clock every work day .
How about the lunch break , Lucy ?
From 11:30 to 1 o ' clock .
May I ask whether we need to work overtime ?
Good morning , Sir . Can I help you with something ?
I hope so . I'm not actually a customer here , but I saw an advertisement in yesterday's newspaper about your new bank card .
I see . Yes , the advertisement has proven very effective . Would you like to apply for a card with us ?
Yes , please . But I suppose I'll have to open an account with you first , right ?
That's right . But don't worry ; it's a very simple procedure .
Could I open an account with you today ?
Of course , it can be done right this minute . If you could just fill in this application form for me ? Do you have your ID card with you ? I'll need to see that .
Yes , here you go . And sign here ?
Yes , please . That's being processed now . As soon as the account is set up , we can issue you with a card .
Are there many idioms in English ?
There are hundreds and hundreds . English is particularly rich in idiomatic expressions .
Can you give us an example ?
I'll look up the rate . To look up doesn't mean to look high into the sky or to look at the roof . It means to search for and find some information .
What about the expression Goodbye ? Is that an idiom ?
That is just a natural , grammatical English expression . It has a direct translation in other languages .
Oh ... I am really worried about the exam . I have no idea what will be on it .
Why ? Just read your notes . You can see what the professor stressed in the lectures . Probably the exam will ask about things he stressed .
Yes , but my notes are all nonsense . I can't figure out what is important .
Let me see them . Are these all the notes you have ?
Yes .
But Laurie , how can you do well in school if you don't take more notes ?
What do you mean ? You think I don't write enough .
I'm sure you don't write enough . Look at this . Here you wrote , Russian Revolution . 1917 . Bolsheviks . Real revolution , or coup ? And that's all ? I remember he lectured for a half hour about that question . And you didn't write any of it !
I know , but I listened .
Yes , but did you remember ? You need good notes to help you remember .
I suppose you're right . But what can I do ? I don't know what to write down .
There are different things you can do . For one , the university offers a special free course on note-taking . You should go to the course . Also , I am pretty good at taking notes . I can help you on this exam . I will photocopy all my notes , and you can compare them to your notes . Then maybe you will see what kinds of things to write down .
That would really help me , Sue . I appreciate it . All this makes me feel like an idiot .
Don't feel that way . I know you are very smart . Note - taking is a special skill . All students need to learn it . Some people are very smart , but they just haven't learned how to take notes yet . I'm lucky because I had a good English teacher in high school . She taught me how to take good notes . It's not hard .
Excuse me , can I have a look at the green coat ?
Certainly . Here you are . It's a new arrival .
Yes , I like the style . Can I try this on ?
Can you connect me to Mary . Smith Hotel room ?
Mrs . Smith has not checked in yet .
Can you leave a message for her to call her office ?
What do you do in your spare time ?
I have many hobbies . I like almost all kinds of sports and I also like to listen to classical music .
What kinds of sports do you like ?
I like playing basketball . Basketball is a very exciting game because it keeps you alert and I also enjoy the team spirit of basketball .
Who is your favorite author ?
I like the novels of Dickens very much . I've read almost all of them in Chinese translation .
Are you a music lover ?
Yes , I like listening to Beethoven's works .
What kinds of films do you enjoy ?
Are you travelling in America ?
No , I am on business . I will spend half a month for the business .
What do you do ?
I am currently working in a foreign company as a salesman .
I know all the tricks of the trade . It is quite tiring and difficult to be promoted .
Maybe . But it provides much wider space for me to improve the skills and increase the experience . What about you ?
I am a reporter at a TV station .
Do you like your job ?
Yes , I have good working conditions and I would require a salary at least 15 , 000 $ a year .
Which kind of news do you catch ?
I report the social news which means I always interview the citizens of various professions and trades .
Are you feel tired ?
Sometimes . News happened out of expectation . Sometimes I have to get up in the early morning while I can't sleep for editing and interviewing .
You have to experience this if you want to be an extraordinary reporter .
Seat 30B is right here , sir . You may take your seat . I'll put your bag in the above compartment .
Thank you , miss . Will dinner be served on the plane ?
Yes , sir . I'll bring you a menu shortly after we take off .
That would be nice . Could you also get me a pillow and a blanket , please ?
Here you are .
How long will this flight last ?
It is a six-hour flight with an-hour layover in Los Angles .
Good coming .
Good coming . Are you through with the cleaning ? If not , we'll come back a little later .
Never mind , come right in . I've almost finished . You always keep the room neat and tidy , I must say . It saves me a lot of work , but you should let me do it .
It doesn't take much time . I ' m used to tidying up my room myself .
It's very considerate of you to do so . Do you have any laundry today ?
I have a suit that needs cleaning .
Can we have two tickets for this evening's film ?
Sure . Which one ?
Titanic .
Where do you want to sit ?
Front , please .
Are these seats all right ? They're in the second rows .
Do you have seats in the fourth or fifth rows ?
Sorry . We ' Ve nothing further back .
All right . We ' ll take the second row . By the way , how much is it ?
Thirty yuan .
We have made some adjustment on the prices , and this is renewed price list .
Thank you for allowing us 3 % reduction , but still we find your price is on the high side .
This is our rock-bottom price and we can't make any further reduction .
If so , we find it difficult for us to go on with our talks .
Then , what's your countr-offer ?
This is our counter-offer .
We are sincere to make business with you , but the difference between your counter-offer and our price is too great .
So are we , our counter-offer is in line with the world market .
How about meeting each other half-way in order to conclude the business ?
So can you fix it ?
I ' m sorry sir . This computer is not broken or damaged . It ' s simply just too old ! That ' s why your programs and applications are running slow . There really isn ' t much I can do .
What do you mean ? I bought this computer just three years ago !
Yes , but technology is ever changing and technology is becoming obsolete faster and faster !
OK , I know where this is going . How much will it cost me to get a new computer ?
Well , this desktop over here is our latest model . It has a four gigahertz processor with sixteen gigabytes in RAM and a hard disk with one terabyte . Of course , it includes a mouse , keyboard and desk speakers .
I have no idea what you are talking about . I just want to know if it ' s good and if I will be able to play solitaire without the computer crashing or freezing all the time !
We ' re going to the Dragon Boat Festival tomorrow . Feel like coming along ?
Sure . I ' Ve never seen a dragon boat race .
Really ? I think you ' ll love it .
How was the movie last night ?
I didn't really like it .
Mary said that she was really pleased with the photography .
I found it very disappointing .
She liked the acting , too , because that's what she wanted to see .
I wasn't happy with it .
We really were lucky . We got the last available table for two---and we didn't even have a reservation ! Did you see the long lines behind us ?
Yeah , I'm glad that we didn't have to wait long . I'm starving !
Let's take a look at the menu so we can order . Do you want to choose an appetizer for us to share ?
What would you rather have , samosas or poppadoms ?
I heard that one of their specialities is the samosa .
Well , let's get a plate of those then .
Sounds good . What are you going to have for your main course ?
I think I might have a dahl .
What's in a dahl ?
It's got chickpeas and vegetables in a spicy curry sauce with rice .
That sounds nice . Do you want to share some kebabs as well ?
Ok . How about some lamb kebabs ?
That's my favourite . Do you want to have some wine or beer ?
I think I'll have a beer .
Ok , shall I flag down the waitress ?
I wouldn't recommend it . I think we should wait until she comes round .
You're right . That might seem a bit rude . It's a good thing I've got you with me !
Mary is such a cautious girl !
What do you mean by cautious ?
She never puts words into her mouth , she only repeats the opinions of others .
David , I ' m going to China .
Really ? How do you get the chance ?
You know . I took part in the Chinese contest . I was the best and they gave me this reward . I don ' t have to pay for my trip .
Congratulations . How lucky you are !
Thank you . I ' m leaving tomorrow morning .
I ' m sure you ' ll enjoy the trip . China is such a beautiful country .
I ' m sure I will .
Have a nice journey , Lily .
What are in this folder ?
They are reports of our company .
Are they filed alphabetically ?
No , they are filed according to dates .
Can you find last month ' s report for me , please ?
To get around your difficulty , Mr . Brown , I'd suggest that you reduce your order by half . You can send in an Addi trional order later .
Well , I'll consider the possibility . By the way , when do I open the L / C if I want the goods to be delivered in June ?
A month before the time you want the goods to be delivered .
Could you possibly effect shipment more promptly ?
Getting the goods ready , making out the documents and booking the shipping space - - all this takes time , you know . You cannot expect us to make delivery in less than a month .
Very well , Mrs . Wang . I'll not reduce my order . I'll take the full quantity you offer . And I'll arrange for the Letter of Credit to be opened in your favor as soon as I get home .
When will that be ?
Early next week . In the meantime , I should be very pleased if you would get everything ready . I hope that the goods can dispatched promptly after you get my Letter of Credit .
You can rest assured of that . We'll book you order and inquire for the shipping space now , so that shipment can be effected within two or three weeks of receipt of your L / C .
That'll be fine . I appreciate your cooperation .
Very good . Well , thanks to your cooperation , our discussion has been very pleasant and fruitful . I sincerely hope that the volume of trade between us will be even greater in the future .
By the way , Mrs . Wang , we have a mind to do joint participation with you on Japanese arts and crafts in our market . Would you entertain this proposal ?
Well , this is something new . A few of our friends from Europe have also suggested that we participate in joint enterprise with them dealing in some of our goods . We think there are a lot of details to go into .
If you feel our proposal is attractive , it is estimated that business to the extent of over twenty million marks can be done in this manner .
Naturally , I appreciate your efforts in pushing the sale of Japanese arts and crafts . But I'm not in a position to discuss your proposal today . I must first talk to our director , and discuss it with you some other time .
All right . Anyway , I'll be staying here for another two weeks . But I'm looking forward to having something done in this respect .
Let ' s move out of here . This apartment is too small .
I agree . I ' ll look in the paper .
A house would be great . I could plant a garden . And you could use the garage for a workshop .
Here ' s an interesting ad , For rent . Two-bedroom , unfurnished house , fenced yard , one-car garage . Pets OK .
How much is the rent ?
The ad says $ 325 plus deposit .
When is the place available ?
Could you tell me what university you want to go to , John ?
Pardon ?
What university would you enter ?
University ? Why ? You asked me last year .
Oh , I forget . Sorry .
I went to Harvard University .
Did you ? And what course did you take there ?
God save me ! Is there anything wrong with you ? Didn't I tell you ?
I've not known . Perhaps , I've got a bad memory .
I did a B . A . in economics . Remember ?
May I help you ?
I would like to return this book .
May I do anything else for you ?
I would also like to check out these books .
Will that be all ?
That ' s it .
Do you have your library card ?
Oh , yeah . Here you go .
Will that be all for today ?
That ' ll be all .
These books are due back in two weeks .
Can you suggest a few exercise to help me get fit and stretch my muscles a little ?
Sure . If you want to stretch your legs , a good exercise is to lift your knee in front of your body , like this . It ' s a very simple exercise , but very effective .
I need to excise my arms too . How can I do that ?
One good way is to do push-ups . Another way is to use weights . Make sure you grip the weights firmly . You don ' t want to drop them on your feet !
When I do push-ups , should I bend my elbows so that my nose touches the ground ?
You don ' t need to bend your elbows that much . Bend them so that your arms are at a 90 degree angle . The most important think is to remember to keep your body straight . Many people bend their bodies at the waist , which reduces the effectiveness of the exercise .
What ' s a good exercise for my chest muscles ?
One that I recommend is that you lie on your back . You should have a weight in each hand and stretch your arms out either side of your body .
So I need plenty of space for this exercise .
Yes , you do . Lift the weight up , keeping your arms straight all the time .
Is there a train leaving for Philadelphia ?
Yeah . There's an express that leaves in twenty minutes .
May I buy a ticket here at the station ?
Sure .
Where ?
Go to window number eleven .
What ' s the matter , dear ?
Something awful happened . We went to the Portobello Road , and someone stole my handbag .
Oh , dear . Did you lose a lot of money ?
No . Only a few pounds . But my passport was in the bag . That ' what I ' m really worried about .
Hey , Mary . Dress warmly for today .
Why ? It looks like a sunny day .
Looks can be deceiving .
What do you mean ?
It's very windy today .
But look , it's so sunny out .
My shirt needs ironing . Could you please help me with that , Mary ?
No way . Do it yourself .
Please , I promise this is the last time .
Wait a moment , I would like to take some snapshots here .
Is that OK ?
It's so beautiful here . I want to stay longer .
Well , I think we'd better go now . We have to follow the guide .
Look at the catalogue , John . I think I want to get this red blouse
Don't you have one like this in blue ?
Yah , but it doesn't have a red one .
Do you need every color in the rainbow ?
Yes !
What channel did you watch last night ?
Channel 24 . It shows some cable networks and no commercial interruptions .
You did ? How do you like the fashion show ?
OK , Ann , you spent quite a bit of time in Australia recently so why don't you talk about that ?
I really liked living in Australia . I was an international student and I studied education at the university of Sydney . And living in Sydney was fantasticbecuase I could go to the beach anytime I wanted and there was a great nightlife in Sydney . There are lots of great clubs . And people were very , very friendly and easy-going and I met a lot of international people in living Sydney .
Mm-hm . How long were you there ?
I was there for almost a year .
Oh , OK .
And I travelled a little bit in Australia . I went up the east coast . Up to Frasier Island . Which is a world heritage site . And I saw dingo running along the beach and sharks in the water . We climbed cliffs and went through a rain forest and went camping and then we went up to the ... , which is a but north . And the further north you go in Australia , the hotter it gets . So we were able to go swimming in the ocean and I went diving for the first time but it was a little bit risky cause I didn't have a diving license , so I went on an introductory dive and I saw a giant clam that had a really purple spongy inside that I was able to touch and then the clam closed up really quickly .
So , did you , did you lose your finger ?
Almost .
Almost . Ah , you're lucky . Um , it's funny , you go in the water and you worry about sharks , but not clams .
Exactly .
Will you be going back to Australia soon ?
Have you seen any good movies lately ?
It's ages since I went to see a film .
Why ? You were a real movie buff when you were a student .
Please take a seat .
Thanks .
Now what can I do for you ?
Well , I'm looking for a job .
Fine , but first I need some information about you .
What kind of information do you want ?

And what was your last job ?
Are there any interesting stories in the newspaper today ?
There are a few stories about natural disasters . There is a massive forest fire in Australia . It covers several square kilometers of land has destroyed many more square kilometers .
Was it caused accidentally or naturally ? Sometimes it gets so hot that fires begin naturally in Australia and Africa .
Nobody knows at the moment , but it has been very hot there recently . The drought in Africa is causing starvation . Millions of people have migrated to try and find food .
What is the international community doing to help ?
The European union has sent several plants with relief supplies . Several countries have sent soldiers to distribute food and medical supplies . Refugee camps have been set up across the region .
How many countries have been affected ?
Six have been seriously affected , but the refugees are also migrating to several surrounding countries .
I saw on the tv yesterday that there has been another earthquake in Iran .
Yes . There have been a few there recently . They say that this one was not a big quake . The Iranians are dealing with it on their own . They have purchased some special equipment to find people buried under rubble .
Does the newspaper say anything about casualties ?
Would you mind going to dinner with me tonight ?
I'd love to go out with you , but I'm sorry I'm busy tonight , but I'd like a rain check .
You mustn't touch the wet paint , Bill .
I'm sorry . I won't do it again .
Try to be more careful in future . Look ! You ' Ve damaged the sign .
Is this the sign ? What does it say ?
In order to extend our export business to your country , we wish to enter into direct business relations with you .
It's our pleasure .
May I help you at all ?
Yes , please . My son wants to go overseas , to England , to do his Master degree . I wondered if you offer any kind of loan that could assist him in doing so ?
We certainly do . I can give you some details about a loan called Personal Loan for Studying Abroad . We offer this to anyone who will study outside this country .
I see . What does it entail ? I'm not sure if we will be eligible .
This loan is specially provided for people who are studying overseas to pay for their tuition fee and other sundry items .
So , we could use it to pay for my son's living expenses , not just his tuition ?
That's right . The sundries could include accommodation , text books and so on . The guidelines are not so strict , you see .
Hello . May I help you ?
Hi . Last month , our company , Turner Interiors of Beijing , ordered some documents under our new L / C . What I want to do is check and see if the documents have arrived yet .
Let me find that on my screen ... yes , the L / C is right here . I'm sorry ; the documents don't seem to be here yet .
Oh , dear . When do you think they will arrive ?
Why do you want to be a teacher ?
It's a job I have been dreaming of for many years . While it is difficult , I am convinced that there is nothing more noble and rewarding than this profession .
Do you know about our school ?
I ' m so relieved that your ankle wasn ' t broken ! I feel just awful about this whole thing . I wanna make it up to you . Let me take you out to dinner tonight . My treat .
That sounds great ! I ' d love to ! Here is my address . Pick me up at eight ?
Perfect !
Thank you for such a lovely evening ! The food was amazing , and I had a great time .
Me too . You look so beautiful tonight ! I wish this night would never end . There ' s something I have to tell you ...
What is it ?
They are playing the wedding march , and I have felt tears .
I'm very touched , and I can't help bursting into tears at the wedding .
Really ? I have seen that our wedding , but just mary's .
Mary looks so beautiful in the wedding gown , and I record the moment that I was bride .
You are always be the most beautiful one in the world . What is the bridemaid's name ?
Judy , Why are you so interested in her ?
Don't be so sensitive , just a casual question , I caught you looking at the groomsman
He's terribly handsome .
I wonder why he is chosen to be the groomsman , and why mary doesn't marry him since he's much more attractive .
Why are you so bitter ? No one tells worse joke than you .
During the last two years , there has been a great increase in goods stolen abroad .
If they steal the entire package , that would be theft . So they don't do that . Generally , thieves open the case and take part of the contents out . Then fill the case so that the gross weight will be the same .
If the goods are received in apparent good order and condition , the steamship company doesn ' t have liability for pilferage . How do we protect ourselves ?
The insurance policy protects us .
Is it true that products of high value such as watches , jewels and luxury clothing items are often subject to pilferage ?
Well , Jeff , that was a very productive meeting , I thought . You had some really great ideas in there !
Really ? Well , thanks for saying so .
No , I mean it . Look , are you hungry ? Shall we go get something to eat ?
Sure . Why not ?
OK , well , let me just get my coat and we'll go to the diner around the corner .
Can I see your parents some time tomorrow ?
Sorry , they are too busy these days .
How about this weekend ?
Good afternoon . I am Mr . Brown , the Import manager of Atlantic Industries Ltd , Sidney , Australia . This is my card .
Good afternoon , Mr . Brown . My name is Mrs . Anderson , manager of the sales department .
Nice to see you , Mrs . Anderson .
Nice to see you too , Mr . Brown . Won ' t you sit down ?
Thank you .
What would you like , tea or coffee ?
I ' d prefer coffee if you don ' t mind .
Is it your first trip to the Fair , Mr . Brown ?
No , it ' s the fourth time .
Good . Is there anything you find changed about the Fair ?
Yes , a great deal . The business scope has been broadened , and there are more visitors than ever before .
Really , Mr . Brown ? Did you find anything interesting ?
Oh , yes . Quite a bit . But we are especially interested in your products .
We are glad to hear that . What items are you particularly interested in ?
Women ' s dresses . They are fashionable and suit Australian women well , too . If they are of high quality and the prices are reasonable , we ' ll purchase large quantities of them . Will you please quote us a price ?
Did you pass the test ?
No , I didn't .
When he told me I had to work overtime , that was it .
The last straw , huh ?
Yes , he's really pushed me too far .
Hi , I would like to purchase a one way ticket to Brussels , please .
Certainly sir , this is our train schedule . We have an express train departing every morning and an overnight train that departs at nine pm .
How long does it take to get there ?
About twelve hours . We currently have tickets available only for first class on the express train . If you ' d like , you can choose a sleeper on the overnight train which is a bit less expensive .
Yeah , I think that is the best option . Do you serve food on the train ? Twelve hours is such a long time !
Yes , of course . There is a dining car towards the front of the train where they serve meals at all times . We do provide complimentary water and coffee for all of our passengers .
Great ! I ' ll take it .
Here you are sir . Your train leaves from platform number nine at nine on the dot . Remember to be here at least thirty minutes before your scheduled departure time or else you might miss your train !
I understand . Thank you very much !
Cute ... Here . These beans are already ground . Now for step three
So soon ?
You have to brew the grinds while they're fresh and drink it immediately for the best flavor .
OK ! Hurry , then ! Here's my cup . I can't wait for step four !
There is no step four ...
How are you going all these days ?
Fine , thanks .
But you look depressed .
I have some problem with my work .
Is it serious ?
I can solve it , thanks .
How about your family ?
Where were you last night , at exactly nine twenty PM ?
nine twenty pm , I couldn't say . I cann't remember .
Are you sure you cann't remember ?
I've absolutely certain .
Were you in or out ? Can you remember that ?
I'm not quite positive . I think I went out at about half pass nine .
Did you see anyone come into the block flats ?
No , I didn't .
Sure ?
I have never experienced a roller coaster . I want you to sit beside me .
Wait a moment , I want to go to the toilet .
How's your new apartment ?
I thought it was in a quiet neighborhood , but it isn't .
What's wrong ?
One of my neighbors has a dog .
Does it make a lot of noise ?
Good morning , sir . Welcome to Flower Hotel .
Thank you .
How many pieces of baggage do you have ?
Three . Would you please help us take them to the hall ?
I don't know . I think you might be over the hill .
Well , if not gymnastics , then mountain biking .
Mountain biking is an Olympic sport ?
Shall we start decorating the bedroom ?
I've already started .
When ?
Linda ? Is that you ? I haven't seen you in ages !
Hi George ! It's good to see you !
What have you been up to ?
I just opened up my own business not long ago .
Good for you ! What are you doing ?
I'm a professional party planner here in the city . I do catering and all that .
I knew some day I would be able to profit from your love of fun !
Do you think that climate change is responsible for the recent floods ?
It could be . There are floods in this country almost every year , but in recent years they have been more widespread and more frequent .
It seems that the climate in this country is changing .
The summers are hotter . The last three summers have been the hottest for the past 200 years . There have also been stronger winds .
I think that the changing climate is a sign that we are causing too much damage to the environment .
I think you ' re right . Climate change naturally over time , but I think that human activities are speeding up the change . I wish that government would join together and try to resolve the problem .
we are going out for dinner tonight . Are you coming , Betty ?
I'm not sure . I have to check my schedule . Where are you going ?
oh , Jake made a reservation at Friday's .
Jack ?
yes , the one with the R $ D team . Is that a problem ?
I will never go out with him anymore .
why did you say so ?
last time when we had dinner at the Smith's , it was a horrible experience . He had no manners at all !
oh , really ?
he made a lot of noises while eating . He talked with his mouth full and sipped loudly .
are you kidding me ? How could he behave like that ?
it is true . Everyone kept looking at him . It was so embarrassing as I was sitting right next to him .
what a shame ! Didn't he realized that ?
I have no idea . He seemed to enjoy the dinner very much .
maybe he should really something about eating etiquette .
You ' ll never guess what ! My friends Julie and Alex are getting married !
Wow that ' s great news ! They ' re a great couple !
I know ! Anyways I just talked to Alex ' s best man and he is organizing the bachelor party It ' s gonna be so much fun ! All the groomsmen are thinking up all the wacky and crazy things we are going to do that night .
You aren ' t going to a strip club , are you ? I don ' t want you getting a lap dance from some stripper with the excuse that it ' s your friends party .
Aw come on ! It ' s just some innocent fun ! You know how these things are ! We are gonna play drinking games , get him some gag gifts and just have a good time . Nothing too over the top .
Well , I don ' t know .
Come on ! If one of your friends was getting married I wouldn ' t mind you going to her bachelorette party !
Good , because my friend Wendy is getting married and I ' m organizing her party !
Jenny , are you having fun here ?
Yes , of course . This is really a nice party with wonderful people and lovely wines .
I ' m glad you ' re enjoying it .
Thank you for the invitation .
It ' s my pleasure . Would you like another glass of champagne ?
May I help you , sir ?
I want a pair of locus .
Take a look at the ones on display , please .
Are you sure you heard right ?
Yes , he is running for class president .
I don't believe you .
Why aren ' t they are aware of the gravity of the situation ?
Don't you feel a little strange taking the place of your old boss after he was demoted ?
Yes , at first I felt very awkward . After Bill was demoted and then resigned , it was kind of like somebody died ! I mean the atmosphere in the office was like a funeral parlor or something . And then I was afraid people would look at me as a traitor for filling in his spot when the management asked me to ...
Did they mutiny ?
Thankful , no . I guess everyone understands the opportunity I had to step into a leadership role is so great for my career . I'm really moving up the ladder now that I'm considered a supervisor . After a couple weeks , it was like nothing happened .
It is a really good chance for you to get more exposure at work . supervisors get to take the credit for all the hard work of the people under them .
Excuse me . Are these chips on sale ?
Yes . You will save 90 cents on each bag .
Is there any limit ?
No , no limit . You can take as many as you want .
That ' s good . Thanks .
How ' s it going ?
I ' m fine , thank you .
Did you need help with something ?
If I could , I would like to view the apartment sometime today .
That won ' t be possible today .
Why is that ?
You can only view the apartment with an appointment .
I would like to make one right now if I can .
Are you available this Friday ?
Can we do it at 6 o ' clock ?
Your appointment for Friday at 6 pm has been confirmed .
Come on , Let's go for lunch , Gregory .
I was going to eat in , I'm short on cash .
Don't worry about it . It ' s on me .
In that case , I'm with you . Em . this is good .
I agreed , Hi , guess what ? I went bungee jumping last weekend .
Are you on the up and up ?
Definitely . you know , I'm into serious sport in a big way .
If you asked me , you've got a screw loose somewhere .
come off it , It's not that serious . You should DIY ( do it yourself ) sometime .
Fat chance , I'm too scared of bungee jumping .
No , really , I think you'd like it . I adapted to it right off the bat .
What did that have to do with me ? I'm not the self-seeker like you .
I can teach you how .
I had a sneaking suspicion about you , Eric , I think you've lost it .
I ' Ve got this really neat idea , you can hire a car and drive straight there .
Are you nuts ? What would my friends think if they see me in a hired car ?
But that ' s the quickest way to make your plans work .
Can I go to my room , now ?
Yes , just follow the porter , Mr . Wilson .
Hi , I was wondering how I'd go about getting a credit card .
Certainly , Sir . You do have a Current Account with us right ?
Oh , no , I'm afraid I don't . Is that necessary ?
Yes , Sir . In order to get a credit card with us , you'll need to open a Current Account here . Could you please fill out this form with your relevant details ?
That's done . Do you need to see any credentials ?
Yes , a passport will be fine .
I don't have my passport on me at the moment . I'll just pop back to my office and pick it up .
Hey , Ann , I am really sorry about last night . I shouldn't have said those things to you .
I am sorry too . I know we've been talking about this beach trip for a while . I should have told Bob I was busy this weekend .
don't be silly . You guys should spend as much time together as you can . Besides we can go to the beach anytime .
thanks for understanding .
well that's what being friends is about , isn't it ?
hey , what if the three of us go to the beach together ? Besides , you and Bob haven't seen each other for a while . I don't want my best friend and my boyfriend to be complete strangers .
Nah , I wouldn't worry about that . But I don't want to be the third wheel . You two should have some quiet time to yourselves .
I know Bob won't mind . You can bring a date , like that guy from the bar you keep talking about .
Charles , have you finished your homework ?
Not yet , Grandma , What's the matter ?
I want you to have a walk with me .
Can I try this dress on ?
Sure . the fitting room is right behind you .
Well , I like the styte , but I don't think the color fits me . Could you bring me a green one ?
what are your strong points ?
well , I ' m very good with people . I ' m honorable . I work hard . I work well under pressure . And I ' m patient .
what kind of people do you like to work with ?
I like a person who works hard . I don ' t like lazy people .
what ' s your greatest strength ?
well , this is a challenging question . I suppose I would say that I ' m a quick learner .
so , you ' re smart .
I think so . I think that I am good at what I do .
what do you consider your weakness ?
I ' m not good at speaking in public . I feel uncomfortable when I speak in public .
Hello , I want to order an Easy-own package . What would you recommend ?
Which function do you use more , making calls or sending short messages ?
About the same . But I'm looking for a job , so I have to answer the phone often .
Then I recommend this package to you . You can receive all the calls free by paying just 10 yuan a month .
That's good . How can I order it ?
Sending a message ' KTCTWY ' to 10086 will do .
Thank you . I'll have a try .
Mr . Crane ' s office . Sandy speaking . May I help you ?
Hi , Sandy . It ' s Walter Knight . I need to book some time with Mr . Crane .
Certainly , Mr . Knight . When would you like to meet with him ?
Excuse me . I lost my way . Could you tell me where the scholar cinema is , please ?
The Scholar ? Let me see . Oh ... yes , Of course I know . It ' s in the Lincoln Square .
Is that near here ?
Oh , yes . It ' s just a few minutes block . Turn left at the traffic light , and you ' ll see it .
Ms . Wang , this is Mr . Cooper , president of Ivy Publishing .
It's nice to meet you , Mr . Cooper .
Nice to meet you , Ms . Wang . You must be exhausted after your long trip from Canada .
Can you ship this batch of cotton within five or six weeks ?
What kind of cottons are they ? May I see your list ? Ah , machine prints .
Yes , mainly prints . There are a few plain as well . Here they are .
I see . And the quantities .
200 rolls of each . Make it 200 rolls for each sample .
How many rolls altogether ?
Twenty prints and five plain . That makes 5,000 rolls in all .
Six weeks , did you say ?
Yes , five to six weeks .
We could manage the plain rolls in six weeks . The prints might be put off to eight weeks .
Eight weeks ? We can wait that long .
That's the best we can do just now , I'm afraid .
Can't you make it seven weeks for the prints ?
What about taking the prints in two shipments ? Two thousand rolls in seven weeks , and the remained a week later .
That might be acceptable . I shall have to cable our Beijing office to get their approval . You can definitely supply in the time you've given me , I suppose .
Yes , I'll see that you get those delivery . Shipping by ' S . S . American ' as usual , is that all right ?
That's right .
When can we expect your confirmation of the order ?
As soon as I hear from Beijing , that will be either Friday or Saturday .
Wow ! It ' s packed .
Hello , Steven . Congratulations !
Thank you .
How's your married life ?
We're happy together now . We both think that we're a well-matched couple .
That's very good . It's said that marriage is the Ab of love . But the words may not be right .
Is there anything available for tonight ?
There are some seats in the rear mezzanine .
Isn't there anything else available ?
Hello , Mary . How are you ?
Not bad . How about you , John ?
You know , Mary , I feel we meet somewhere before . Where were you born ?
I was born in Beijing , but I spent most of my childhood in London .
What was your childhood like ?
I had a pretty strict upbringing , and my parents taught at an university so they have extremely high expectations for me .
Where did you go to university ?
My parents wanted me to stay in Beijing , but I decided to go back to England . I graduated from University of Newcastle upon Tyne with a degree in Cross Culture Communication .
What is your current occupation ?
All right . I want to bring everybody in on this project . When can we start working on this ?
Well , we could probably get started with a strategy meeting tomorrow morning at 8: 00 .
I tell you what , 8: 00 is no good for me , but why don't you guys get started and I'll come by at around 8: 45 or so .
Have you been ever been to Disneyworld ?
When I was young , my parents took me to the one in California . I always forget which -- is that one Disneyland or Disneyworld ?
The one in Florida is Disneyworld and the one in California is Disneyland , so you must have been to Disneyland .
That's right . Why do you ask ?
Well , I've never been to either so I was thinking of going to Disneyworld for my honeymoon .
When are getting married ?
Some time next year . We haven't set the date yet .
Congratulations ! I had no idea .
Thank you . So what do you think ? Would we have a good time ?
Do you like amusement parks ?
For the most part , yes . Some of the rides are bit too scary for me , though .
If you don't think twice about the rides and go on every ride that you can , you'll have a good time .
Even the roller coasters that go through tunnels in the dark ?
Even those . It'll be very romantic , I think . You'll have loads of fun .
Thanks for the advice . I'll talk to my fiance about it tonight .
Ten dollars ? Maybe there are a lot of them ...
Seven dollars ! ! ! Incredible ! But I saw that the seller has kind of a bad rating .
Was it a delivery problem or a problem with the products ?
I read that someone called him a cheat and a liar ! And I noticed that he won't ship abroad .
Some people get nasty on those comments . Maybe you should write him and ask nicely .
Hi , Nicole . Did you have a good weekend ?
Yes , I did . But I feel tired today .
Really ? Why ?
Well , on Saturday I cleaned the house and played tennis . Then on Sunday I hiked in the country .
And I bet you studied , too .
Yeah . I studied on Sunday evening . What about you ?
Well , I didn't clean the house and I didn't study . I stayed in bed and watched TV .
That sounds like fun , but did you exercise ?
He has lots of hobbies .
And he ' s always busy with his pictures and roses .
He ' s won a dozen prizes for his pictures and roses .
But as for his business in the city ...
He lets his cousins look after his business .
Oh . I just wanted you to shut up . You were off-key anyway . Let me see that !
OK ... just grab it right out of my hands ...
What a cool see-through blue ! How do you wear this thing ?
That piece fits on to your ear . It hooks right on . And you just put the other one in your other ear .
I am so busy today .
Can I help you ?
I ' m not sure . Perhaps you could do the shopping .
I ' ll be glad to help .
Or maybe make the beds .
All you have to do is ask for help .
Thanks . That ' s terrific !
Merry Christmas ! Mary !
Merry Christmas ! Mr Bean .
Will you come to join us at dinner this evening ? My family will be happy to see you . And father misses you very much .
I heard that your previous manager was very capable , he is a good manger .
That ' s a matter of opinion .
What do you mean ?
Dad , can you buy a new camera ? My old one has gone west .
What ? I gave it to you only 3 months ago .
So , you didn ' t buy a good one for me . This time how about a better one ?
I just got a letter from an old high school buddy .
Really ? That's nice .
He usually keeps me posted .
I've been completely out of touch with my old friends .
It's hard to keep up contact when people move around so much .
Good morning , sir . What can I do for you ?
Check out please .
You have stayed for 6 day . Here is your bill .
Here is the cash . Can you look after my baggage for a while ?
Surely of course . But you have to be back by 5 o'clock , otherwise we will charge you 10 $ .
Is there anything wrong with your food this evening , Miss ?
Sorry to trouble you . But I don't think this fish is fresh . It actually tastes a bit off .
Sorry , Miss . I'll place it immediately , can I get you another drink , or you wait ?
No , please don't do that . I'd just like to return it .
I'm sorry , Miss , but I'm afraid we can't do that . You'll order something else instead . I'd love to suggest the steak , it's the special today , and quite tasty .
Ok , then please bring me the steak mediun-rare , thank you .
I'd like to purchase a pan .
Is there any particular size that you want ?
Well , I cook a lot of big meals .
What do you think of this one ? It's a 16 " pan .
Yes , that's the right size , but it's so heavy .
Well , look at our aluminum pan . It's much lighter .
Yes , this is very light . But the handle is also aluminum .
No problem . Look at this one . Same pan , but with a lightweight wooden handle .
Great . This is exactly what I was looking for . I'll buy it .
I think you'll love this pan . Do you want to pay with cash ?
Yes . Oh , wait a second , please . What about a lid ?
Another glass of beer , will you ?
Thanks , I'm enough .
At least one for your trip .
Are you still on your summer vacation ?
Yes .
When will school start ?
What makes you think you are able to do the job ?
My major is Automobile Designing and I have received my master's degree in science . I think I can do it well .
What kind of work were you responsible for in the past employment ?
... So what I think we need to do is ( XXXXXXXXXX ) finish on time .
Sorry , Tom , can you say that last bit again please ? We didn ' t get that .
Oh , OK , I said ( XXXXXXXXXX ) on time .
Sorry Tom , We're having problems hearing you here . It ' s a bit hissy . Can you hear us ?
( XXXXXXXXXX )
Hello ?
( XXXXXXXXXX ) but I don ' t think you can hear us . ( XXXXXXXXXX ) Hello ? ( XXXXXXXXXX )
Tom , if you can hear me , I think we ' Ve lost you . There ' s a problem with the line . Let ' s try again . We ' ll call you .
Excuse me . Can you tell me how to get started using these machines ?
Of course . Are you a new member here ?
Yes .
Welcome . My name is Johnson .
Nice to meet you .
Do you have any experience using weights ?
No , I don't . So I need some help .
Well , first it is important to go through a good stretch . You must warm up properly so that you don't hurt yourself on the machines .
Yes , I know that . Derek just led me through the warm up in the aerobics room . So I'm ready , I think . I can start using the machines .
Alright . Great . Then we must get a card for you .
What do you mean--a membership card ? I already have one .
No . Not that . I mean a training card . The card allows you to keep track of how much weight you use on each machine . Here , let me show you .
I'm ready .
Now , you can see that on this card there are all the machines listed . So , when you go through the series of twelve machines , you enter in the number of repetitions you do . And you also enter in the weight at which you set the machine .
I see . So this card helps me to keep track of my progress .
Yes . And it also reminds you what is a suitable weight for each machine . Today , I will go through the machines with you one by one . I will show you how to use them . And we will determine what is a good starting weight for you .
Alright . Great .
So you write your name and member number at the top of the card . And then , after you exercise each time , you file the card here .
Great . Why don't we start on the machines ?
Are you alright ? Can you do more ?
I'm sorry . I know there are still seven machines . But I'm exhausted .
That's okay . Don't worry . It ' s important not to push yourself . Especially not at the beginning .
What can I do though ? I don't know the proper settings for the rest of the machines .
We can just go through them next time . It's no problem . Really . The most important thing is to know your limits . So if you feel burned out now , it is good to stop . Because if you strain a muscle or hurt your back , then you won't be able to exercise for a couple weeks . Right ?
What do you do in summer ?
I love going out into the countryside for walks or bike ride . I love being out in the fresh summer air . How about you ?
I don ' t often go for walks , but I either play sports outside-you know , tennis or badminton-or just sit in the sunshine and read a good book .
What do you do in winter ?
Well , I play sports indoors quite often . If I ' m feeling lazy , I just watch a film at home . I prefer summer to winter .
I think most people do . I like wearing nice , colorful clothes in summer-you know , a nice dress or skirt . It ' s too cold for those kinds of clothes in winter .
Yes . I like wearing shorts in summer . My legs would freeze !
Do you think we ' ll have a nice summer this year ?
I have a suggestion . Why don't we go to a ETV and sing ?
A ETV ? Are you serious ? ETV ?
Yes , why not ? Don ' t you like ETV ?
I don't know . I never went to one .
Never ? Really ? I'm surprised .
Many Americans have never gone to a ETV . It ' s not an American thing to do .
But there are a lot of Kts in this town . There's one just two blocks from here .
Mr . Wang , we haven't discussed the mode of payment .
You know Mr . Forster , this is a really large purchase . I am afraid we can't pay off at one time . We have to pay by installment .
Do you mean you prefer a deferred payment ?
Yes , Mr . Forester .
When do you start the payment then ?
We'll start our payment in half a year and the total amount will be paid off within 2 years by three installments .
We can accept that but you have to pay the interest .
All right .
Shall we sign the agreement now ?
What are you two doing in here ?
We heard you weren't feeling well , so we came to check on you .
I was sitting there giving out nametags and all of a sudden , there she was .
Who , Femi ? Yeah , Yi-jun saw her inside .
All these memories of prom night came back to me . I had to be alone . You remember that night ?
Would you like to order now ?
This all looks good ! I think we know what we want .
Please let me point out the chef's special , which is blackened catfish .
I am dieting , so could the chef prepare the food with no extra sauce ?
We are always happy to adjust our cooking to meet your needs .
Could you tell me if there are any entrees that are vegetarian ?
The cashew broccoli noodles or the cheese and veggie enchiladas would be an excellent choice .
I am going to go with the grilled shrimp with garlic sauce . I would like the garlic sauce on the side .
Would you like your salad brought to you with your entree , or would you like it served now ?
Can you tell me how to apply for a job on the Internet ?
You just need to send an application .
Do I have to send one by e-mail ?
Excuse me , I'm looking for your casual short-sleeved shirts . Can you tell me where those are ?
Right over here , sir . What size do you wear ?
Medium .
These here are all mediums .
Thank you . I think I'll take this one , and these pants as well . They're a present for a friend .
Shall I gift-wrap them for you , sir ?
Where can I get a good novel ?
What would you like to have in your breakfast , bread , egg or sandwiches ?
Bread .
And milk or orange juice ?
Orange juice .
What would you like for lunch , pork , mutton or beef ?
I think mutton is best .
What kind of drink do you like most , red wine , beer or champagne ?
I like champagne .
And among apples , oranges and bananas , which is your favorite ?
Banana of course .
Do you always have meals outside or in your house ?
Jenny , you look terrible . What's eating you ?
Don't brother me !
Hey , Chillon , I'm just trying to help .
Sorry , Sally , it's not your fault .
So , what's the problem ?
I drew a blank on ~ about the test .
No kidding ! Didn't you study for it ?
Yeah , but nothing was clear during the test .
That's too bad , anyway , I'm sure things will turn around next master .
I'm thinking of dropping out .
You can't do that , Jenny !
I'm dead serious about this , Sally .
I didn't expect to see you at this hour . You must have goofed off again .
Goofed off ? Maybe , but I'm not a clock-watcher . I finished doing what I should do and then knock off an hour earlier .
You'll be sorry if the boss finds it out . He may probably give you the bag .
Excuse me , Miss , can you tell me where the bank is ?
Yes , the bus doesn ' t go there directly . You have to take the No . 26 bus for five stops and then change to a No . 16 bus and get off at the third stop . When you get off , you can see the bank .
How long will it take me to get there ?
It ' s about an hour .
I see . Thank you .
I am so bored all day .
Why ?
Jack borrowed a large sum of money from me and didn ' t pay me back .
What kinds of Tv programs do you enjoy watching ?
I like current affairs programs and documentaries , especially wildlife ones . How about you ?
I like those kinds of programs too . They ' re very informative . I think that many people underrate the education value of Tv .
I agree . People often criticize Tv for showing too much sex and violence .
Yeah . And that ' s so funny because most people prefer watching sex and violence to watching something more educational !
Right . You can ' t blame the tv stations for showing popular kinds of programs . They need to make money from advertisements shown during and between programs .
In my country , there ' s a time limit on the advertisements that can be shown . I think it ' s about six minutes per hour .
That ' s great idea . But don ' t the Tv station lose a lot of money because of that ?
No . they don ' t . they simply charge higher prices at peak times . Is there no limit on the amount of advertisements that can be shown on Tv in your country ?
Not as far as I know . We have so many advertisements . the interruptions are unbearable sometimes ! That ' s one reason that many people prefer satellite or cable Tv , where you pay a fixed amount each month .
Some people have satellite and cable Tv in my country , but people don ' t seem to keen to pay for their Tv programs . Besides , the terrestrial channels offer a good range of programs .
Good morning , Wilson Association .
This is Brown speaking . I'd like to speak to Mr . Tomas .
I'm sorry , but Mr . Tomas left here just a few minutes ago .
I've been trying to call him for the last ten minutes , but your line was busy . Will he be back soon ?
I'm afraid not . He is away for the rest of the day .
Is there any other way I can reach him ?
I'm afraid not , he has gone out of this town on business . May I take a message ?
I have a business appointment with him at ten o'clock tomorrow morning , but I'm afraid I can't make it .
Would you like to make another appointment ?
Unfortunately , I'm leaving here unexpectedly , and I may be away for several days .
I see . I'll tell Mr . Tomas you've called .
I'm sorry I'm late .
Oh , that's all right . I just wondered what was keeping you .
The bus I took .
What do you mean ?
I took the wrong bus .
Look ! It's clearing up .
I can see the sun now .
I like summer as long as it's bright like this .
Hello , Sir . We haven't seen you for quite a while . So , what is it today that we can do for you ?
I need a Deposit Certificate to handle some stuff in land .
I see , yes , I can do that now . I'm sure you know , as I may have told you before , you should pay an extra 20 RIB handling fee for this service .
Yes , I recalled you charging that before . And I thought it was extortionate ! Haha !
I can just take it from your account , you don't need to give me cash .
OK ... so it'll come out of my account ? Well , that makes it much easier .
Anything else you'll be needing today , Sir ?
All of my friends are going out to the lake tonight and I'm going too !
Dear , can you drive me to the clinic ?
I'm afraid I can't .
Why ?
Well , my car won't start . I don't know what's the matter with it .
Could it be the battery ?
No , I don't think it could be . I checked the battery two days ago . It must be other problems .
Well , I suppose it could be the gas .
No , there is plenty of gas . I filled it up yesterday .
Perhaps it's the starter then ?
Let's start the interview with some questions . Tell me about yourself and your past experience .
I have 10 years financial industry experience , working for several companies . For the past two years , I have been working in an investment banking . In addition to my analytical mindset , I have a background of solid accounting principles . I am a team player and have great communication and interpersonal skills . I thrive on challenge and work well in high-stress environments .
What finance experience have you had that qualifies you for this position ?
My background and experience include working on a variety of projects and jobs in the financial industry . Most of my experience has been behind the scenes , doing the calculations . I want to work with clients and continue to grow and be challenged .
Why did you leave your last position ?
I'm not finding the work as challenging as I used to . I want to find a job that is stimulating , where I can grow .
What are your strengths and weaknesses ?
One of my strengths is my ability to be flexible . I've seen companies go through many changes in structure and management philosophy . I've had to adjust my style to the new environment several times . As far as weaknesses , I really enjoy my work , and sometimes I put in too much time . But by being aware of my tendency to overwork , I have learned to pace myself more and work less overtime .
How would your boss describe you and your work style ?
She'd say I have a lot of initiative , I see the big picture and I do what has to be done . Second , I always meet deadlines . If I say I'm going to do something , I do it . Lastly , I have the ability to focus on what I'm working on I am not easily distracted .
What are your salary expectations ?
I'm sure whatever you offer will be a fair amount for a person with my qualifications . Salary is not the most important factor to me . I'm looking for opportunity .
Do you have any questions ?
Some of them seem to be of the latest style . Now I ' Ve a feeling that we can do a lot of trade in this line . We wish to establish relations with you .
Your desire coincides with ours .
Concerning our financial position , credit standing and trade reputation , you may refer to Bank of Hong Kong , or to our local Chamber of Commerce or inquiry agencies .
Thank you for your information . As you know , our corporation is a state-operated one . We always trade with foreign countries on the basis of equality and mu - dual benefit . Establishing business relations between us will be to our mutual benefit . I have no doubt that it will bring about closer ties between us .
That sounds interesting . I ' ll send a fax home . As soon as I receive a definite answer , I ' ll make a specific inquiry .
We ' ll then make an offer as soon as possible . I hope a lot of business will be conducted between us .
Car trouble center . How may I help you ?
My car won ' t start ! Stupid old car !
Hold on , before you kick your car let ' s go through some possible problems .
Fine .
OK , first of all , can you turn the key in the ignition ?
Yeah ! I am here with my friend and he thinks it may be the spark plug or the starter motor .
Those are possible problems , but tell me , when you turn the key , do you hear the starter motor crank ?
Yeah , it sounds like it usually does when I start the car , but nothing else happens . The engine won ' t start . Should I maybe press the accelerator ?
No . If you step on the accelerator pedal you can flood the carburetor and your car will never start .
So what do you think it is ?
I know this may seem like a silly question , but does your car have gasoline ?
Now that it ' s the new year , I ' Ve decided to turn over a new leaf .
Yeah ? You finally decided to wipe the slate clean ?
You got it ! I have a new job , I ' m living in a new city , with new friends ! This is my opportunity to make some small changes in the way I live my life .
So what are you going to do ? Take up an art class or something ?
Well , first of all , I ' Ve decided to stop smoking . It ' s not that I ' m pinching pennies or anything , it ' s just that I ' Ve been smoking since I was sixteen , and I think it ' s time to stop .
I ' m with you on that one . Anything else you ' re planning on doing ?
One last thing , I ' Ve decided to come out of the closet .
What can I do for you today ?
I need to return a book .
Can I do anything else for you ?
I want to check this magazine out .
We don ' t allow people to check out magazines .
Why not ?
It ' s just a policy of ours .
So what am I allowed to check out ?
You may check out books or videos .
I need to check out this magazine .
You will have to just read it in the library .
Going to the gym tonight , Mary ?
Yes , Sally . I want to do some sit-ups and perhaps get in a game of singsong .
That sounds like fun . Would you mind some company ?
I'd love it . Working out is more fun with a friend .
I'll get my things and meet you there .
Do you have perfume ?
Yes , what kind of smell do you like ?
I would like some light smell .
How about this one ? It's not that concentrated .
Can I smell it ?
Steven , would you like to go dance with us tonight ?
John , I am just not in the mood for this .
You look so upset . What's going on ?
I lost the table tennis game yesterday .
Oh , what a pity !
I just don ' t want to play table tennis any more .
Is it that bad ? It ' s nothing more than a game .
My opponent bowled me with the very first ball . I was wondering if it's appropriate for me to play table tennis .
Oh , come on ! Failure is the mother of success . Don ' t lose heart . I'm sure you'll succeed .
Perhaps you are right . But I still need some time to recover from the failure .
Would you travel around the world if you had the money ?
I'd like to speak with the apartment manager , please .
This is he . What can I do for you ?
I'm interested in the apartment on Main Street .
It's still available . Do you want to see it ?
Yes , I would very much like to see it .
Does today at 6 p . m . sound okay to you ?
I have no problem with 6 p . m .
Okay , I'll see you at 6 o'clock . Do you need any directions ?
No , thanks . I already drove by to see what the neighborhood looks like .
I'll have an application form with me . You can fill it out if you're interested .
Should I bring anything with me ?
I'm calling to tell you the shipment has arrived in good condition .
That's good ! This is our first transaction . I hope you'll be entirely satisfied with this initial shipment .
Shall we go to the library by subway ?
Yes , it's far quicker and less complicated .
OK . There is no subway in my city .
Really ?
Yes . Does it operate night and day ?
Yes , and seven days a week .
Where do we pay the fare ?
Follow me , please .
Do I have to pay an additional fare to change trains ?
No , you don't have to .
Excuse me . Can you tell me where the Wal-Mart supermarket is ?
Turn right at the second crossing and then go straight for two blocks .
Is it far from here ?
No , it ' s only ten-minute's walk .
Thanks a lot .
I want to say ...
Say it ! What is it ?
That I can't go on any longer without you .
You know you shouldn't say that at a time like this .
Nancy , I made up my mind you were the only woman for me at the first sight .
Too sudden ! I'm not ready for it .
Forgive me for startling you with the impetuosity of my sentiments .
Stop it . No more of that talk .
I really love you .
No , I shall faint .
And I hope so . This is what you were meant for . Say you love me , say yes , say yes .
Can I help you , Sir ?
Yes , I'd like to withdraw some money .
Fill in the slip , stating the exact amount you wish to withdraw , please .
OK . Here's my bank book , is that all right ?
OK , do you want large notes or small ones ?
In 50 Yuan or 100 Yuan would be fine .
Here's the cash for you .
It's almost Christmas . What are you doing this weekend ?
Nothing special , just working . Why do you ask ?
Well , I still haven't finished my Christmas shopping . Do you want to go shopping with me this weekend ?
I'd like to , but I'm not sure if I can . Work has been really busy lately . Why don't we go on Friday instead ?
Friday's not good . I think the stores will be very crowded and I have to work .
OK , then let's try to go this weekend . I should know if I can go by Friday . Is it OK if I call you then ?
Yeah , that's fine .
What's your number ?
233-331-8828 . Let me give you my email address too . It's Tom861@gmail . com
OK , I'll talk to you soon .
Hello , Sara are you finished packing yet ? Do you need a hand ?
Thanks . Dad , but I can manage it myself .
Make sure you have your ID card . You will need it while you travel .
Yes , I know . The problem is that I can't find it . Where did you put it ?
All your important documents and certificates should be in the desk drawer .
Oh , yes , here it is .
Sara ?
What's up ?
Did you buy a map ? Traveling can be really inconvenient without one , and you could even wind up lost
No . Dad . We have a tour guide .
Also , take these pills in case you have any airsickness , and take some cold medicine , too . How about some band-aids ?
No , I won't get sick . I promise . Ok . I've finished . Bye , Dad . See you !
Take care , dear ! Be careful ! Oh Sara , wait a minute ! You forget your raincoat and umbrella .
Hurry up . Time is running out .
Can you please give me a hand ? I can ' t carry the heavy box .
I ' m afraid not . Don ' t you see I ' m looking up a word in the dictionary ?
I think you are flicking through it .
What kind of breakfast do you want ?
Is there any difference ?
Yes , a continental one contains eggs , bacon , toast and juice . American one is the same as a continental one except the egg .
Does she make any sense to you ?
No . It's all Greek to me .
She's speaking French , not Greek .
I know that . I mean I couldn't understand her at all .
Me neither . All I have to do is study French hard .
Anything else I can do for you ?
I need ten 55 cents stamps and ten 32 cents stamps , please .
OK , here you are . Anything else ?
Yes , I need to send the payment to immigration for my aunt's citizenship application . They won't accept checks . How do I send the money ?
You can buy a money order and mail mature immigration .
Then I need a money order for 250 dollars .
Please fill out the form for the money order . You also need to pay a one dollar fee .
Thank youse much for all your help .
You're welcome . Have a nice day .
Could you do me a favor ?
Sure . What is it ?
Could you run over to the store ? We need a few things .
All right . What do you want me to get ?
Well , could you pick up some sugar ?
Okay . How much ?
A small bag . I guess we also need a few oranges .
How many ?
Oh , let's see . . . About six .
Anything else ?
Yes . We're out of milk .
Okay . How much do you want me to get ? A gallon ?
No . I think a half gallon will be enough .
Is that all ?
I think so . Have you got all that ?
Yes . That's small bag of sugar , four oranges , and a half gallon of milk .
Do you have enough money ?
I think so .
Hello , I set up my laundry yesterday , are they being ready ?
They will be ready this afternoon .
Oh , no . I ' m leaving for Japan at eleven this morning .
Is that right ? We are very sorry
I thought it the same day service . Anyway , please do a hurry .
I ' m afraid ... be can returned by eleven o ' clock .
Well , then . Would you send to Japan , please ?
Excuse me , is this the office of the Textile Corporation ?
Yes , What can I do for you ?
I'm from CTC Trade Company . Here is my card .
Welcome to our corporation . I'm in charge of the export business .
I'm glad to meet you here . You're Ms . ...
I'm In Hui . Do sit down , won't you ?
Thank you , Ms . In . I'm here to discuss the possibility of establishing business relations with your corporation .
We'd be very glad to do so . Have you seen the exhibits displayed in the hall ?
Yes , I had a look around yesterday . I wish I could have them all . Can you give me a price list with specifications ?
Yes , of course . If you make an inquiry , we can make you a firm offer .
Did you remember to bring back that software I lent to you ?
Oh , I ' m sorry . It completely slipped my mind .
That ' s ok . If you could just bring it in tomorrow , I would appreciate it .
Hi , what're you reading ?
An old book Death on the Nile . Have you read it ?
Not yet , but I saw the movie . Could I borrow it when you finish reading ?
Good evening . Welcome to Mansion Hotel .
I have a reservation . My name is Rodgers .
Last name , Rodgers ?
Yes .
Very well . Welcome , Mr . Rodgers . Would you please fill out the registration card ? How are you doing today ?
0h , good . I have a long day and it's good to get here .
Mr . Rodgers , how would you handle your account ?
My credit card , please .
I will check to see if there any messages for you ? Well , here is one message for you .
Thank you . I have an 8 o ' clock appointment tomorrow morning , I would like a wake-up call .
Certainly , I can take care of that for you . What time would you like the wake-up call ?
7 a . m .
Mr . Rodgers , this is George . He will take care of your luggage and show you to your room . If there is anything I can do for you , please let me know .
OK , I'll do that .
Hilton Hotel . Can I help you ?
Yes . I'd like to make a room reservation .
Fine . Beginning when ?
Two weeks from Thursday , for three nights .
That's the twenty-fourth of June ?
Right .
Your name , please ?
Robert Hamlin .
Single or double ?
Double .
The boy threw up .
Why don't we get ourselves a new car ? The old one's falling apart .
What a good idea !
What kind shall we get ?
We could go to more places this time , if you liked .
Yes , fine .
When shall we go and look ?
Why not sometime next week ?
No , let's go on Saturday .
OK .
Where shall we go ?
There's a car dealer down the road . How about going there ?
No , I don't like that place . Why don't we try the garage Martin recommended ?
Oh , no . Charlie , where is my purse ?
Don ' t you have it ? Did you lose it ?
Yes , I did . I lost it . It disappeared .
Myrdal , purse don ' t just disappear . Think carefully . When did you have it last ?
I had it when I left the house . I had it when we start to get the hotdog .
How much will our order from your factory be ?
I'll be happy to get back to you with an estimate in the next few days .
I'm afraid I can't wait that long . Can your office at least provide me with a ballpark figure ?
Well , I would need an idea of how large your order would be . About how many units would you need ?
Just give me an estimated figure for an order of 100 units .
Please give me a few minute to calculate ... Our asking price should be about $ 100 per unit with an order of 100 . Is that price acceptable to you ?
Your estimated is seems a little high to me , we're willing to pay $ 80 per unit .
I ' Ve had it ! I ' m done working for a company that is taking me nowhere !
So what are you gonna do ? Just quit ?
That ' s exactly what I am going to do ! I ' Ve decided to create my own company ! I ' m going to write up a business plan , get some investors and start working for myself !
Have you ever written up a business plan before ?
Well , no . it can ' t be that hard ! I mean , all you have to do is explain your business , how you are going to do things and that ' s it , right ?
You couldn ' t be more wrong ! A well written business plan will include an executive summary which highlights the idea of the business in two pages or less . Then you need to describe your company with information such as what type of legal structure it has , history , etc .
Well , that seems easy enough .
Wait , there ' s more ! Then you need to introduce and describe your goods or services . What they are and how they are different from competitors ' ? Then comes the hard part , a market analysis . You need to investigate and analyze hundreds of variables ! You need to take into consideration socioeconomic factors from GDP per capita to how many children on average the population has ! All this information is useful so that you can move on to your strategy and implementation stage , where you will describe in detail how you will actually execute your idea .
Geez . Is that all ?
Almost , the most important piece of information for your investors will be the financial analysis . Here you will calculate and estimate sales , cash flow and profits . After all , people will want to know when they will begin to see a return on their investment !
Good morning , how have you been doing ?
I haven ' t been able to take a deep breath lately , and I need to know why .
Have you had any type of bug lately ?
No , I ' Ve been feeling fairly good most of the time . It just is hard to breathe .
Has anyone ever told you that you have allergies ?
No one has ever checked me for allergies .
Does this happen more when you are under stress ?
When the weather gets really cold , it gets worse .
I am going to refer you to a pulmonary specialist who can run tests on you for asthma .
Hello there . Is there anything I can help you with ?
Yes , please . 70,000 US dollars is being transferred into our account .
Which company are you from ? I'll check your details .
I'm the accountant with Go Thong Computers .
Ah , yes . Mr Can , isn't it ? Yes , the money has been transferred successfully . But you'll need to change it into RIB before you can have it .
No problem . Can I withdraw all of it now ?
Good morning ! The Inland hotel . How may I help you ?
Good morning . I ' d like to book a room for Friday night and Saturday night .
Certainly . What kind of room would you like ?
A single room please . I hope you ' re not fully booked .
A single room ? That ' s fine . In whose name shall I make the booking ?
Jones . According to your website , the nightly rate is $ 50 , including breakfast .
We offer a 20 % discount for guests staying of Friday and Saturday . The total cost will be $ 80 , including breakfast .
Thank you very much . I look forward to seeing you on Friday .
Could I just take your credit card number please ? I should mention that there is a cancellation charge of $ 20 .
Hello , I want to make a reservation for a Qingdao cruise .
When will you set out ?
Next week .
OK . There is one on Wednesday .
Good ! How much does the sea view stateroom cost for per person ?
Eight hundred yuan .
I see . Does that include fees for shore excursions ?
No . It doesn't . But it includes all other on board activities .
On , darn . The grocery store is closed .
Yeah , this one closes at ten . We could drive to the 24 - hour store on sixth .
Alright . We are out of everything .
I wish the store close to us was open 24 - house a day .
I know , our schedules are so weird . Sometimes , the little corner store is the only thing within walking distance that ' s open when we get home .
Yeah , and the prices there are very high .
That's great ! We made 20 minutes earlier .
Good thing , we took a taxi .
Mom , you are the best !
Hey , look there . It is an advertisement of the piano training class on the billboard . The place is not far from our home .
Mom , come on . What are you thinking about ?
Your sister is in high school now ; no one plays the piano at home .
Don't tell me you want me to do that ?
Why ? Why not ! The piano is right there .
But I don't like playing the piano . And the homework keeps me busy enough .
Anyway , I will have a look at the piano class after work by myself .
How can I get my driver's license ?
Have you taken your driving test yet ?
I have yet to take my driving test .
Okay , first I'm going to need you to fill out the paperwork .
When can I take my test ?
You'll have to make an appointment for that .
I would like to make one right now .
How does Friday sound ?
That would be great .
What time would you like to take the test ?
If I could do it in the morning , then that would be good .
Hello . Excuse me . Do you know if there's a Commercial Bank around here ?
Yes , go straight along Beijing Road and turn right .
Straight on , and turn right . Is it far ?
No , it's just a couple of minutes .
Thanks very much .
This is our rock - bottom price , Mr . Li . We can't make any further concessions .
If that's the case , there's not much point in further discussion . We might as well call the whole deal off .
What I mean is that we'll never be able to come down to your price . The gap is too great .
I think it unwise for either of us to insist on his own price . How about meeting each other half way so that business can be concluded ?
What is your proposal ?
Your unit price is 100 dollars higher than we can accept . When I suggested we meet each other half way , I meant it literally .
Do you mean to suggest that we have to make a further reduction of 50 dollars in our price ? That's impossible .
What would you suggest ?
The best we can do will be a reduction of another 30 dollars . That'll definitely be rock bottom .
That still leaves a gap of 20 dollars to be covered . Let's meet each other half way once more , then the gap will be closed and our business completed .
You certainly have a way of talking me into it . All right , let's meet half way again .
I'm glad we've come to an agreement on price . We'll go on to the other terms and conditions at our next meeting .
Yes , there's one other point I wish to clear up .
What is it ?
My friends in business circles all seem to be of the opinion that the U . S . import and export corporations have become more flexible in doing business recently .
Yes , they're right . In fact , we have either restored or adopted international practices in our foreign trade .
I'm glad to hear that . With a view to expanding and further enhancing the bilateral relations between our two parties , and in particular , exchanging timely views on specific problems in the execution and enforcement of contracts , is it possible for us to have a representative that could stay permanently in Washing - ton D . C . ?
Basically speaking , yes , we welcome the establishment of repry - tentative offices by foreign companies in Washington D . C . Of course , there are more details to be attended to . We cannot settle it in a few words .
Yes , of course . I'll call my home office tonight and let them know about it . When do we meet again ?
How about tomorrow morning at 9 ?
Hi , do you have any tickets for the show tonight ?
Sorry , it ' s all sold out .
Well , do you have any for tomorrow ?
We have tickets for the matinee . It starts at 3p . m .
Ok . I ' ll take it .
Where would you like to sit ?
Do you have anything in the middle section ? I want a good view , but sitting too close hurts my eyes .
Can I take a picture ?
I am sorry , sir , it's not allowed .
What a pity . Do you have reproductions of this paint ?
Of course . You can get it at the entrance .
Excuse me , do you have a vacancy ?
Let me see . Yes , we still have four left .
Well , I would like to book a single room .
How long would you stay ?
I'd like you to bring me some food .
Just name it , sir .
Please send up a bottle of champagne , lobster tail , and filet mignon , medium rare .
Regrettably , we're currently out of filet mignon . May I suggest the porterhouse instead ?
Sure , I love porterhouse , too .
Would you be interested in chocolate-covered strawberries with the champagne ?
I'd love to , but I'm allergic to strawberries .
Okay , no strawberries tonight . The items will be charged to your amenities account .
Go right ahead .
can you help me pick out some fabric for a suit ? I'm going to get one made for a friend's wedding .
sure . What kind of material do you want for the suit to be made from ?
it depends on the price , but I was thinking of getting a wool / cashmere blend .
that will probably be quite expensive , but the more you pay for the fabric , the longer it'll last and the better it'll look . What color do you want the suit to be ?
I was thinking of a brown pin-striped suit .
brown , huh ? Isn't that a bit dull ?
haven't you heard ? Brown is the new black .
why don't you just get black ? Black suits are always fashionable and can be worn for anything -- a funeral , a wedding , a job interview -- anything !
that may be true , but black is so boring . Anyway , I already have three black suits . I might as well get a suit that stands out from the rest .
here are two different shades of brown . Which one do you prefer ?
I like the one on the left , but I don't like the pattern on it . It's too much . I want a pattern that's a bit subtler .
how about this one ?
I think that will do . Let's go talk to the tailor about getting it made .
Since China was open to the outside world , its trade forms have become much more flexible . One of these commonly used forms is co-production . Would you please do a bit explanation of it , Mr . Walker ?
Well , under this arrangement two parties cooperate to manufacture a product or a category of products , for example , machine tools for export . Each party produces and supplies a part of the components and parts ; one party is a Chinese enterprise , the other , an overseas firm . Most probably , the foreign counterpart contributes technology and equipment , and sometimes , parts and components , while the Chinese enterprises factory building , labor and other resources to the cooperative production . They join hands and fulfill orders together by an agreement or a contract .
I suppose that the assembling of these components and parts , particularly the marketing of the finished products should take place in China .
Not necessarily . It depends on the contract stipulations . They may be marketed in the foreign country where the other party is located , or even in a third country .
I think the principle of co-production is to expand export trade . It's a reciprocal business , isn't it ?
If you fall in love like him , you will go soft in the head , as well .
Come off it .
You want a bet ?
How much is the admission fee for a student ?
We offer a reduction of 50 % and comes to $ 10 .
Here you are . Where is the museum guide ?
Well , here you are .
Is it free ?
Paul , can I set up a time with you to go over the training manual ?
Sure . Let me just grab my calendar . All right . I ' m free all day Tuesday and Thursday morning .
Tuesday morning is good for me . How about 10:30 in my office ?
Julia , what time is it ?
Eight o'clock . It's time for you to get up and have breakfast .
Oh , my God ! I'm going to be late ! I have no time to have breakfast now . ( Hurry on his clothes . )
You won't go to work today , Steven , It's Sunday . Come and have breakfast now .
Oh , I have a poor memory now . I haven't had enough sleep lately . I had a bad dream just now .
You have been too tired recently , darling . That's why I didn't wake you up this morning . After breakfast , you can go to sleep again .
Excuse me . I don't think we have met before . My name is Mary Jenson .
Oh , hello . I'm Bias Chettri .
Good to meet you , Mr Chettri .
It seems a glorious day today .
I agree ...
It's beginning to spot .
Who's the man that is kicking the boy ?
He's the poor kid's father .
Does he often beat his son ?
Did you go to the movie yesterday ?
Yes , I did .
What did you think of it ?
I don't think much of the film .
I think it is the worst one I have ever seen .
Oh , I'm not sure I agree with you . It was not a good one , but it was not the worst one . Actually , it wasn't too bad .
I can't think the same .
What's more , some scenes were good , much fit for the children .
Hello , My name is Candy Brown . May I have your name ?
Hello , Candy . My name is Jim White . Nice to meet you .
Nice to meet you , too . Where are you from ?
I'm from New Orleans . What about you ?
I was born here .
Really ? This is a beautiful town .
It's nice talking to you . But I have to go .
OK . Can I have your phone number ?
OK . It's 15066688866 . Call me ! Bye-bye , then .
Hi Jane , can you let me know the best way to get to your house this evening ?
Certainly , where will you be coming from ?
I need to be in the city centre this afternoon so I will be coming straight from there .
Ok . Take the Underground ( the Circle line ) to High Street Kensington . Make sure you take the High Street Kensington exit .
Got that .
Ok - when you leave the Underground , cross the road and you should see Horntown Street . Was up that street to the crossroads . As you was you should see a fast food place on your right .
Hold on , I am looking at the map now . Ok , I can see Horntown Road . Do I go straight at the intersection ?
No , you need to turn left into Philimore Was and take the next right .
Ok , I can see that road .
That's fine . You will not miss it because it's just next to the Kensington centra Library .
Good , I can see the library on the map .
Ok , we live in the third building on your left . Will we see you around 7 pm ?
Mr . Rogers ?
Mr . : Yes ?
I'm not feeling too well .
Mr . : Would you like to go to the nurse's ?
Yes , I would .
Mr . : Here's a hall pass for it . Do you need someone to walk you there ?
I can manage on my own . Thanks .
Good afternoon , sir . May I help you ?
Yes , I'd like a cheeseburger and a large order of French fries .
Would you like anything to drink with that ?
Yes , a medium Coke .
Will that be all ?
Yes .
For here or to go ?
To go , please . ( The attendant hands the customer his order . )
Can I help you find something ?
I would like to buy a new fridge .
Is there one in particular that you like ?
I was looking at this Kenmore refrigerator .
Ah yes , that is a great refrigerator .
What's so great about it ?
It's both affordable and it comes with all the appliances .
What appliances ?
It comes with an ice maker , water dispenser , and there is a lot of room inside .
May I see the inside for myself ?
Be my guest .
Where do you live now ?
I live in Haitian District where there are lot of universities .
Which street do you live on ?
Hi Steve . What do you think of the new supplier ?
We haven't had any problems so far . They offer a 24 - hour technical back-up service . We've called them in three times this month . They always arrive within a couple of hours .
That's good service . Do we have to pay extra for that ?
Look at this fair . This is my first chance to be involved in the fair . It is so gorgeous and amazing !
I felt dizzy when I stare at those shining lights . What should we do firstly ?
Now we should design our booth . Do you know the number for our booth , B ?
Let me see the notice . It is here . Our booth number is E108 . Good number .
Lucky number . Find its location now .
We can also consult some from these volunteers .
Here it is . Well , remember to have our cards on to tell every visitor where we come from .
Should we put our samples on this table ?
May I invite you to dance with me ?
Sorry , I can't dance .
Never mind , I can teach you .
Is it difficult to learn ?
No , it is easy .
How should I do ?
You just follow me .
All right . By the way , do you often dance ?
Yup , because dance can relax myself .
Hi , sorry to have kept you waiting .
That's all right .
How are you ?
Are you a smoker ?
Yes , I ' m afraid I am . My husband is a smoker too .
Would you describe yourself as being a heavy smoker ?
No . But my husband smokes 20 or more a day .
When did you begin to smoke ?
I had my first cigarette when I was 17 .
Might I ask if you have tried to give up smoking ?
Front Desk .
Will you wake me up in the morning ?
Yes , what time would you like a wake-up call ?
I'd like to purchase a parking permit for next semester .
Are you a daytime student or do you just come in the evenings ?
I am a daytime student .
Will you be driving a motorcycle or a car ?
I will be driving my car .
OK , that will be twenty-five dollars . How would you like to pay for it ?
I'll pay for it with a check .
Would you like to pay for any extra permits for another vehicle ?
No , thanks ; I'm fine .
Hello , madam . Would you like to take a look at our products ? They are high-tech items .
Hmm , they look interesting . Can I have a copy of your brochure ?
Sure . Do you have a minute ? Why don't you have a seat and let me show you how to operate this item ?
OK . Go ahead .
You see , if you press this red button , the helmet becomes an umbrella .
How amazing ! I have never seen it before . Is it expensive ?
It only costs you 20 dollars for one .
What can I help you with today ?
My washing machine isn't working .
What's the problem ?
The water will not drain .
Is there anything else wrong with it ?
No , that's it .
I can come down and fix that for you if you'd like .
When will you be able to fix it ?
How does this afternoon at 2:30 sound to you ?
That would be perfect .
Alright , so I'll see you then ?
ABC Company , my name is Lucy . How can I help you ?
Hello , Lucy , this is Monica . I ' m calling for the accountant position . I saw the information about the vacancy on your company ' s website . Is it still available ?
Thank you for your interest . The position is still available . Have you already sent your CV to us ?
No , not yet . First , I want to check about the availability and see if you could give more information .
It is quite urgent for us to fill this position now and I would like to stress that English is a must because of the international contacts and most likely traveling abroad very soon . If all these is not problem for you , I recommend you to mention these in your cover letter and send it to me directly .
Professor , do you have a few moments when I could meet with you ?
I schedule my appointments from two to four on Saturday ; what works best for you ?
Three would be a good time .
Great , do you need directions to my office ?
I'm not sure .
Well , just make sure to go through the double doors , and I'll be on the right .
OK , I'll find it .
It's very easy to find .
See you then .
Can I get you something to drink ?
Sure , but I don't drink much . So I don't know what to order .
So how about an aperitif ?
It sounds good . I'd like to start with a Compare .
Stirred or shaken ?
Stirred will be fine .
Here you are .
Thanks . Does the bar have a signature drink ?
Sure . All of our mixed drinks are excellent . You can also try a delicious non-alcoholic cocktail .
Can you recommend one ?
Try a Stinger . It has lime juice and grenadine over ice .
It sounds interesting . I'll take one .
Here we go .
It tastes great .
Enjoy yourself .
I've just been a little depressed lately .
What's wrong ?
Nothing really .
It doesn't look very nice outside today .
You're right . I think it's going to rain later .
In the middle of the summer , it shouldn't be raining .
That wouldn't seem right .
Considering that it's over ninety degrees outside , that would be weird .
Exactly , it wouldn't be nice if it started raining . It's too hot .
I know , you're absolutely right .
I wish it would cool off one day .
That's how I feel , I want winter to come soon .
I enjoy the winter , but it gets really cold sometimes .
I know what you mean , but I'd rather be cold than hot .
There are something wrong with my computer .
Really , what's wrong with it ?
The computer doesn't work when I push the power cotton .
Oh , do you use your computer often ?
Yes , I don't know why it doesn't work this time .
Don't worry . Have you got receipt with you ?
Yeah !
We'll go to your house and repair it on Tuesday . Ok ?
OK , I'll expected you around 2 o'clock ?
May I help you ?
I have a problem .
What ' s your problem ?
I owe fees , but a bank statement never came in the mail about it .
I apologize for the inconvenience .
I have no idea about the fee , so my fees went up .
I understand your problem .
Will you be able to solve my problem ?
I ' m going to cancel the fees you owe .
So , I don ' t have to pay any of it ?
The initial fee still must be paid .
Look ! That man who is baking bread is so handsome .
Watch his bread , it seems to be delicious . He had a lot on the ball .
Is supper ready ? I'm hungry .
Almost ready . Could you set the table ?
Ok . What are we having ?
We'll have fruit salad to start and then the roast beef .
I'll have my beef well-done , please . By the way , don't we have soup tonight ?
I didn't prepare it , but if you want , I can cook some . What soup would you like to have ?
Shall we share a taxi ?
Where are you heading now ?
I want to go back to my college on the Huanghe road . It is very close to your house .
Is that the university next to the Teachers ' College ?
That's the one .
You mean we'll share the taxi ?
Yeah . If we share the cab , it'll be cheaper . Besides that your Chinese is better than mine . The drivers usually have difficulty understanding me even though I practice my pronunciation carefully .
What would you say if I told you I was going to quit school ?
I ' d say , think twice about it . Well , you are not going to quit school , are you ?
I don't know . I failed my exam .
What did you get ?
A B plus .
That's not bad .
But I should have aced it . I mean I finished the paper so quickly , thinking it's a piece of cake . But when I knew my result , I was like what ? That can't be true !
Listen , John . I understand that you are such an excellent student and I know you must have lots of stress , but you really want to give up ?
No , I don't . I just don't know how to handle this . This is my first time , you know .
I know . Don't worry . Do you know what you should do ?
What ?
You need to blow off some steam . The world is not on your shoulder .
How ?
Forget about school and exams . Come over to my house and have fun . I have some really good DVDs .
Thanks . But I really don't feel like watching movies tonight . I have to get an early start in the morning .
Then go to bed and have a good sleep .
I guess that's what I need . Thanks . You're being a really good friend .
Of course I am . Well , pleasant dreams !
The mailboxes are right down there , and the laundry room with coin-operated washers and dryers is over there .
I see . Well , it's nothing spectacular , but it's pretty cheap for an apartment in a decent neighborhood ... O . K . , I think I'll take it .
All right , do you want to sign a nine-month or a one-year lease ?
I think I'll sign a nine-month lease in case I decide not to go to summer school . I can extend it if I want to stay , can't I ?
This is my admission card , and these are the books .
OK , a moment , please .
By the way , can I renew the borrowing ?
For which one ?
Sense and Sensibility , English version .
Yes , of course .
Can I just do it here ?
Sorry . No . You should go to the other counter .
OK , thanks .
Sorry , this biography is over the deadline . You should pay extra for it .
I was thinking of buying this from the bookstore when my father got this from the library ... anyway , how much should I pay ?
3 Yuan , please .
Here you are . Thanks .
Front desk . May I help you ?
I'm going to check out tomorrow but will be back in a week's time . Can I leave my luggage here ?
Yes , sure . We do have a storage service . When will you be checking out tomorrow ?
About nine-thirty in the morning .
Then shall we arrange the bellboy to pick up your luggage at 9:00 ?
Sure .
May I have your room number , please ?
1218 .
1218 . We'll collect you luggage at 9:00 tomorrow . Would you then come to the Front Desk to get your storage receipt , please ?
Thank you very much , bye !
When you were in school , what were your favorite subjects ?
I enjoyed everything , as long as I was learning .
Still , you must have had some subjects you enjoyed more than others .
Yes , I did like Spanish and Music . But I don't remember much Spanish .
That's too bad . We could really use someone who is bilingual .
Hi , how are you doing ?
Everything's great . And you ?
Same here . Have you seen any new films recently ?
No , I haven't had a chance to . But I have been watching a Chinese TV scries called " Chinese-Style Divorce " .
Oh . really ? I saw it two years ago . It's worth seeing and it's thought-provoking .
Yeah . I found it is so close to our life .
It reflects some of our difficulties in this ever-changing world .
You said it . You know , the divorce rate has been on the rise in recent year .
Well , it's said that a lot of young people favor getting married quickly which tend to end quickly too .
I know a couple who divorced a week after getting married .
Oh , that's too short-lived .
That's true . It's said the short-lived marriage is typical of the post - 80s ' generation .
II can't agree more . The only-child-generation in China tends to know little about marriage .
Definitely . They don't take relationships and marriages very seriously .
In their mind , love is nothing but passion and marriage is over once the passion is gone .
Are you paid on a commission or salary basis now ?
I'm paid on a salary .
What's your monthly salary ?
At present I get 1,800 yuan per month .
How much do you hope to get a month here ?
That's not the problem I care about . You can decide on my capacity and experience .
If we decide to hire you , we'd pay you two thousand and five hundred yuan a month at the start . You can have Saturdays and Sundays off . Besides , you may have a paid month holiday every year . How do you think about it ?
I'm looking for the produce section , please .
All of the produce is in aisle A .
Are bananas on sale today ?
Hi , Mr . Zhang . What ' s wrong ? You don ' t look so happy . How was your date ?
I was turned down again . It ' s frustrating . I guess you ' Ve got to teach me some skills .
Me ? I ' m even less experienced than you are .
At least you know what American women generally like in a man .
Believe it or not , I guess American women like a man in good shape , which Chinese women may not care about so much . That ' s my honest opinion . I know you have been trying very hard .
American men are naturally taller than Chinese men . So even if I exercise , there aren ' t many chances .
No , that ' s not true . I ' Ve met two American women who were married to Chinese . But those Chinese look very strong and healthy . So if you exercise more often , I bet it will surely be easier for you to date American girls . How old is Jacky Chan ? He ' s small and short . But I bet he can have any American woman he wants .
You know , that ' s going to be a tremendous change for me . Because I never exercise .
My wife gave birth to our first child today .
How was school today ?
It was great . I made some friends .
Really , that's good .
But the lessons this semester are a little bit hard .
How about your grades of study ?
I have been doing quite well . As reach 90 % and Bs reach 100 % . And I ' Ve been awarded Zu Jingle Scholarship two times .
Besides your major , do you know some in other fields ?
Yes . To develop my knowledge , I studied Economics , Business Administration and Accounting through self-study . Nowadays , I have passed three courses on CPA .
Have you ever been a student leader ?
Yes , I used to be the monitor of my class .
Did it affect you much ?
Ah ! No ! Damn it !
It's a blackout . Now I can't see Seinfeld .
So what ? I just lost one hour's worth of work .
Really ? How could you do that ? Don't you save every couple minutes ?
No , I didn't save this time . Damn it ! And I'm sick of writing this paper . Now I have to write it all over again too .
I've had that problem too many times . So I learned to save . When I'm writing something , I save every three sentences or so . I don't want to lose anything .
I hate computers . Sometimes I think they cause more trouble than they're worth .
What are we going to do now ?
I don't know . I feel like going out .
I wonder how much of the city is down .
It doesn't matter . I still can go out and buy a beer .
Maybe . But if there's a blackout , probably the pubs are closed . And besides , I know you have a political science exam tomorrow . I thought you had a lot of reading to do .
Yes , that's true . Damn ! I just lost half my paper , and now I can't even do my homework . This is a bad time for this to happen .
I have a flashlight in my closet . If you want to use that to read , you can .
Thanks . I think I will try . Where are you going ?
I like your idea of getting a beer . I think I'll go out myself .
Maybe we can trade . Why don't you stay here and read for my exam , and I'll go drink beer ?
No , it just won't work . If I read for your exam , you won't know the answers tomorrow . I will .
So ? You can go to the class for me . Just write my name on the exam book and take the exam . Why not ?
How many students are in the class ?
About fourteen .
So it won't work , old buddy . They'll see that I'm not you . Sorry .
Hi , Tony . You look unhappy . What's wrong ?
Oh , Steven , I made a big mistake .
What happened ?
I really wish I hadn ' t done it .
What on earth are you talking about ?
I got caught cheating . I feel so ashamed . The teacher saw me and told me I failed .
What were you thinking ?
You know my father . If I fail , he'll kill me . I have to do well .
But what you should do is study hard .
I know ... I know ... it's all my fault . I feel awful that I didn ' t study , and I cheated , and I got caught .
Good afternoon , how can I help ?
Hi there . I'd like to draw some cash from my Fund Account at the Securities Company . Could I check my balance before I withdraw anything ?
Of course . Your balance is 92,320 RIB in your Securities Account . How much would you like to withdraw ?
I'd like 20,000 RIB , please . If that's possible .
how's your new job going ?
really well , thanks .
how are you finding your new boss ?
she's not bad . She's a bit bossy , but I'm sure I'll get used to her .
would you rather have her or your old boss back ?
she's far better than my old boss . He didn't know how to express his opinion without putting at least one other person down .
how about your new co-workers ?
they are all pretty easy-going . It's a very friendly place to work .
do you miss your old co-workers ?
of course . I spent so much time at my old workplace that I got to know them all very well . They were like family to me .
do people in different departments get along with each other ?
sure . Since we work together in teams , we have to get along with each other .
do you like working in teams with people from different departments ?
yes , it helps everyone to understand what we're doing from different perspectives .
do you like working in teams ?
Her ex-boyfriend was terrible , but this new one is even worse !
Hi , Is that David ?
Hi , Jenny . It's David here .
Hey , what's new ?
Not much . My girlfriend just dumped me .
Sorry to hear that . What happened ?
Well , she told me things just weren ' t working out and we weren ' t right together . But I thought things were just great . Why did she say this ? It's completely out of the blue .
Hey , that ' s not the girl with pink hair , is it ? The girl I saw with Jack yesterday .
What ? She was cheating on me with that ugly guy . Oh , no , I feel like such a loser .
Hey , she is not worth it . Forget her .
But she lied to me .
Hey , she is not worth it . Anyway , there are plenty more fish in the sea . Listen , let's go for a drink in the town . How about that ?
Ok , then .
But you have to promise me that you are not gonna wear that face .
What face ?
The one where you look like your dog just died . You have to get over her and the sooner the better .
ORG ! It must be so late where you are . What time is it ?
just after 2 am .
what's wrong ? Can't sleep ?
nope , actually I was waiting for you . I have something big to tell you .
really ? What is it ?
I have an offer to work for a company in your city today ?
I can't believe it ! Is it real ? You're moving here ?
I haven't accepted the position yet and with the upcoming holiday I think it's the perfect chance to visit the city and take a good look at the company before deciding . If you have time I think we c

thanks . This is so exciting . Sleep tight and sweet dreams !

Well , it's only three stops from here .
I see . Thanks a lot .
Hello . This is Hamilton ' s Heating and cooling service . Can I help you ?
Yes . My home freezer is not working properly .
What ' s the problem ?
It keeps running all the time , never stopping . And it makes a strange sound . All the ice cream inside it melted .
Maybe the compressor is going bad .
Can you send the technician to check it out ?
Sure . But there is a minimum charge of $ 60 for a service visit . If your freezer needs parts , there will be an additional charge .
Okay . I ' ll pay the charges .
All right . let me check our technician ' s schedules . I ' ll call you back and let you know what time we can send a service technician to your house . What is your phone number ?
My number is 627-555-1234 .
Okay . I ' ll call you right back .
Thank you . Good bye .

Yes . But I prefer a bit salty soup .
Do you like egg soup or mutton soup ?

Yeah . I could not stand living here . There is always much noise in the neighborhood .
You mean noise ? How could it be ?

I think so too , and you have a general understanding of the company now .
Yes , your company is a big one in the field and has great potential .

We will give you more than what you hope .

I'd love to , but my mother asks me to go home before 11:00 every night . She will worry if I get home late .
What a pity ! The party is very interesting .
I have no choice . My mother is always very strict with me .
Don ' t complain about it . She is concerned about your safety .
Have you got any plans for the coming holiday ?
Yes , I have a very special one . I will be doing volunteer work in a zoo for two weeks . A friend of mine working there told me the other day that they were in need of some volunteer keepers . I was very interested . So I asked him to get me the application form . Lucky , my application was approved by the manager very soon .

Would you be willing to come down to the station for further questioning ?
I love your little Lulu dolls . How much for a batch of 6,000 ?
For a batch of 6,000 we would charge two dollars a doll . your total cost would be $ 12,000 .
That ' s a little steep for our company . Do you offer any discounts ?
Well , we ' d like to work with you . If you ordered a larger quantity we could drop the price a little . Can you increase your order to 15,000 ?
Hmmm . It wouldn ' t be easy , but if the discount makes it worthwhile , we can consider it . How much of a discount would that give us ?
For order of 12,000 or more we charge only $ 1 . 5 a doll . your total cost would be $ 18,000 .
So , for an additional 6,000 dollars , we get twice as many dolls ? That still might be a little hard . Couldn ' t you discount it further ? We ' Ve been pricing other suppliers , and this discount might
We do value your business . I think I can offer a further discount -- say 5 % ?
Hi , why do you look so depressed today , Mike ?
I had a terrible quarrel with my neighbor yesterday .
How come ?
It is a long story . Basically , she thought I had laughed at her while I didn't .
I know everyone suffers when he is misunderstood . But why not take it easy ?
You must be annoyed about your boyfriend ' s leaving you , huh ?
Don ' t ever mention him . I ' m getting over it .
It ' s a sad thing . I ' m ever so sorry ...
are you ready to go to the bank ?
sure , what do you need to do there ?
there ' s problem with my bank statement . There ' s a mistake on it . I also need to withdraw some money form the ATM .
I have to exchange some money .
that ' s right . You ' re going away next week .
I also want to see if my salary has been paid into my bank account . There was a problem last week .
I have to pay my credit bill too . If I don ' t pay it soon , the credit card company will charge me interest .
I'd like to order dinner .
What would you like ?
I'd like to order a bottle of champagne , lobster tail , and filet mignon , medium rare .
I'm sorry . We're currently out of filet mignon . May I suggest the porterhouse instead ?
I'd prefer the filet , but the porterhouse will do .
And may I suggest chocolate-covered strawberries with the champagne ?
Normally , I would take you up on that suggestion , but just the champagne will do for tonight .
Okay , no strawberries . Room service will be charged to your amenities account . Is that all right ?
That's fine .
Hello , Sir . What can we do for you today ?
Hello . I've been asked to come and see about something called L / C ? What is it exactly ?
L / C stands for ' letter of credit ' . This is necessary for trade between two countries . A Letter of Credit is quite literally that -- a letter addressed by the buyer's bank to the seller's bank stating that they could vouch for their good customer , the buyer , and that they would pay the seller in case of the buyer's default . Nowadays , it's sometimes used for domestic trade too .
We ' re having a department meeting at 10 o ' clock , ok ?
That ' s fine ... I need to pick up some stationary-you know , a stapler , scissors , files , who should I see about that ?
See Julie , the receptionist . She knows where all that stuff is kept . You might like a calendar for you desk . She can give you one of those too .
Thanks . I need to make a few photocopies .
The photocopier is near my office . Come on , I ' ll show you where it is .
Do you enjoy working in this office ?
Yes , I do . Everyone ' s really friendly . Sometimes , I wish I worked outdoors more , especially during the summer .
What ' s usually discussed at the department meetings ?
Bob returned from Japan last week . You know that ?
Yeah . I met him yesterday . He ' s no longer the same young man as he was eight years ago .
Well , speak of the devil .
What do you mean ?
I was just thinking about you the other day .
I'd like to order room service to room 202 , please ,
How can I help you ?
I'd like two sandwiches and one green fruit salad , please .
Will that be all , sir ?
No . Could you also get some extra towels and soup too ? We went to the pool today and used up our two clean towels .
I will have someone bring that up right away . How would like to pay for the dinner ?
Just put in on with the rest of my hotel bill .
Mary , come here . I've found the book our teacher recommended us to buy last week .
Really ? How much is it ? Oh , it's 42 yuan ! How expensive !
You know , it is the best seller for this year . It has had its fifth impression since its publication early this year .
How come ? I have never seen such a popular book before .
Wait a minute . I found there were two printings . The paperback books must be much cheaper .
Hi Benjamin . My name is Dr . Green . What seems to be the matter ?
I've been feeling pretty ill for a few days now .
what are your symptoms ?
I feel chilly , I've got cramps , I keep throwing up , and I feel dizzy and tired .
it sounds like you might be a bit dehydrated . Do you feel thirsty most of the day ?
yes . I can't seem to drink enough .
have you been drinking plenty of water ?
no , just soda .
ok . Well , we'll have a nurse take some blood in a few minutes to see if you're dehydrated . First , let me feel your pulse .
that seems to be a bit low , but that's not uncommon when you're ill .
is anyone else sick in your home ?
no , but my girlfriend has mono .
I see . I'll have the lab techs run some tests to check for mono as well then . The burse will come in then to take your blood , we'll run some tests , and then you can go home . You should hear from us
How could you handle living in such a big family ? Does everyone get along ?
Sure . We love each other and take care of each other .
In such a big family , there must be a head . Who's the head of your family ?
My grandpa . He has the final word about almost everything . My grandpa is " President , " and Grandma is " Vice-President . " My parents , uncles and aunts try to arrive at a consensus on important questions .
Is a family like yours common in South Korea ?
No . Not anymore . Mine is highly educated but traditional family . Most South Korea families today are a lot smaller . In traditional families , the old people are well respected and taken good care of . Ho
My family setup is a bit different . In New York city , there're only three people , my mother , my stepfather and me . During this summertime , I fly out to California and live with my dad . Dad's getting
Of course there'll be a room for you !
To be blunt , maybe I won't be able to get along with his new wife or her kids .
Yours is a modern family . I'm sure your dad loves you and would want you to stay for the summer . You just need to try your best to get along with your new stepmother and her boys .
But four boys !
It will be a new experience , and you might as well learn to adjust to changes .
You are right , I guess . The world keeps changing , and so do families . But I like a small-sized or medium-sized family where everybody is equal to everybody else . That's what I want .
It is good to have goals in life . If California doesn't work out , come and visit me in Korea , OK ?
That's a great idea !
We could share a room ! It would be fun . And we could do some traveling around Korea . You could see for yourself what life in a big family is like !
I was looking at my test score and think that it should be higher .
Is the math wrong or the way the answer was marked ?
I think an answer got marked wrong that should have been marked right .
These things can happen ; let's double-check the answers first to be sure , all right ?
That would be great !
Look at the answer sheet and compare it to your answers . Do you see any place where I made a mistake in grading ?
This one right here should be right .
Yeah , I see the same thing ; now we can do the math and check that , right ?
Yeah , let's do the math .
I count all of the correct answers , total them , and divide by the total . Does this look right to you ?
Looks pretty good .
Can you assure the quality of this air conditioner ?
Yes , ma'ma . There'll be no problem with the quality .
What if there's something wrong with it ?
You don't have to worry about it . We have a one year warranty .
Are you sure ?
Is this American Airlines ?
Yes , sir . My name is Ellen . How may I help you ?
I need to get a flight to Chicago on the 7th in the morning . Can you give me a hand ?
Can I ask a favor of you ?
Sure .
Would you mail this letter for me when you go to the post office ?
Hi , Bob . Can I have the book back I lent to you last month ?
Oh ! I forgot all about it . Of course you can have it back , John . I'm sorry about the delay .
I'm going to New York for the first time , but I don't have a tour guide . Can you give me any suggestions ?
There's a service called ' A friend in New York ' . It's a personal tour guide service .
That's interesting . What does it do ?
You give them your information by answering a questionnaire and they will create a perfect trip for you according to your budget .
Good . Where can I get the questionnaire ?
Are you married ?
Yes , I am .
How long have you been married ?
I have been married for three years .
How many people are there in your family ?
There are three people in my family .
Who are the members of your family ?
Good luck . I've got class in a few minutes .
Me too . I'll talk to you later .
I don't know whether or not to believe him .
You can trust him . He always tells the truth .
But it's really too important to me .
Ladies and gentlemen , here is the Westminster Abbey . It's one of the oldest buildings in London .
What a large building . Can we visit by ourselves ?
Of course . Take your time and enjoy your trip .
Thank you . When and where shall we meet ?
We will meet at 5:00 right here .
Do you think it's time to sign the contract , Mr . Simpson ?
I'd like to look it over before I sign it .
OK , no problem . I hope there are no questions about the terms .
I am fully satisfied with the terms of this contract .
Shall we sign this contract now ?
OK . Where do you want me to sign ?
Just sign at the bottom .
OK . ( Sign ) Once a contract is signed , it has legal effect .
You're right . Thank you for your cooperation .
Hello . What can I do for you today ?
I've got some documents here that go with the L / C our company opened 10 days ago . I think there is something wrong .
Really ? Have you checked everything carefully ?
Very carefully , that's when I found the problem .
Ah , I see . The goods description is totally different from what you are expecting , right ?
Yep , you've got it ! What should we do ?
Usually , if the problem is insignificant I advise the customer to go ahead ; it's normally a translation problem or something like that . But this does seem a little more serious . I suggest you get back on to them right now and ask them about it . Hopefully you can sort it out over the phone .
Have you got anything to declare , madam ?
No , I haven't .
Have you got any wine or spirits ?
No , I don't drink .
What about cigarettes or cigars ?
I've got some cigars .
How many , madam ?
Have you packed our passports ?
Not yet . Do we need to take it with us ?
Of course . Otherwise I cannot go abroad .
Is that hard to get a passport ?
Not at all . But we do need to keep it with us all the time .
Daddy , what's next ? What else do we do now ?
There is a man-made fishing pond nearby . So , What do you think of going fishing there ?
Great . Let's go . Where is it ?
Patience , boy . A watched pot never boils . We shall get out fishing stuff first and make some baits , too .
We have many cookies left here . Can we use them as baits ?
I don't think fish would like them . Instead , they love earth worms .
So let's go and catch earth worms !
OK . I think that's enough for today . Let's go .
Daddy , do you think we're gonna catch any fish today ? We've been fishing here for more than two hours , and we get nothing .
That's because you're talking to me all the time . Be patient , or there will be no chance to have sashimi for dinner today .
I love sashimi . Did mom bring any soy sauce for that ?
I suppose she did . Be quiet . There is a fish on the hook . Here it is . Look , a big one .
Cool . Hey , I've got an idea . Why don't we cook it separately ? Half for sashimi , and the other half for grill .
Great idea . But the fact is we have no barbecue with us . Moreover , the sashimi will be great . So why do we bother to waste time on barbecuing the fish ?
What does your sister look like , Mike ?
Well , she ' s tall and pretty .
Is she like you ?
I suppose so . We ' re both friendly and easy-going .
Is she as clever as you ?
No , she ' s not as clever as me .
Have you been to Shanghai before ?
Yes I have . I ' Ve been there three times in the past year .
That sounds great . Have you been to the top of the Pearl Tower ?
No I haven ' t . I haven ' t visited the Bund either . I ' Ve always had too much work to do .
So you haven ' t done much then , in Shanghai ?
To start with , may I know why you are interested in working for our company ?
First , as far as I know , your company has had an impressive growth record . Second , I want to get into the foreign trade business .
Now you are with Quandong Company . What is your chief responsibility there ?
I'm in charge of marketing activities in South-East Asia , for example , organizing trade conferences and arranging exhibitions .
Do you have any questions about the job ?
Yes . Are there chances for employees to be transferred to overseas branches of the company ?
Certainly . This is an international company , and ther're good chances for you to work overseas .
Would you make me a dust coat out of this serge ?
Sure . Let me measure for you .
What's the charge ?
$ 200 . The delivery time is 2 weeks .
Hi , excuse me . I am sorry to bug you , but do you know where the Royal Hotel is ?
Just a minute . I am as busy as a bee right now ... Ok , I am done . What can I do for you ?
Well , I seem to be a little bit lost here . I am worried that I ' ll never find my way . What's worse . I forgot my glasses and as blind as a bat now .
Well , keep you chin up ! I ' ll try to help you . Where are you going ?
I am trying to get to the Royal Hotel . Do you know where that is ?
Yes , no problem . You walk down this street . You turn left at the first intersection . Walk along that road , turn right at the corner . After that , you make a left-hand turn at the first traffic light . The Royal Hotel is on your right side .
Great . Are there any landmarks nearby ?
Yeah , I think so . I think the hotel is right across the street from a post office . It is as plain as the hump on a camel . You can't miss it .
Oh , that's good . I should be able to find it pretty easily then . Is that far from here ?
Yeah , it ' s gonna take you a while if you go by foot . I ' d say it's about a 30 - minute uphill walk . You have to be as strong as a lion to make it .
Oh , that will take too long and I am kind of in a hurry . Can I take a bus there ?
Well , you could take a bus there , but you would have to transfer buses twice . A taxi would probably be a lot quicker .
All right . I guess I'll take a taxi then . How long will it take by taxi ?
Not too long . It should take about ten mins by taxi .
Cool , thanks .
This shirt is really nice .
You have a very good taste , sir . Would you like to try it on ?
OK . I'll try on a medium size .
Here you are
Where is the fitting room ?
It's just around the comer .
It's too big tor me . Do you have a smaller one ?
What would you like to do tonight ?
I'm not sure .
What about going to a movie ?
May , look , what's that in the cage ?
Don't you know that ? It's panda .
Of course I know . I just can't see it very well .
OK , then put on your glasses , and do you know what does the panda eat ?
Of course , Bamboo !
That's right .
I also know they are given to other countries as gifts for friendship .
You sound quite knowledgeable .
Not really , panda is my favorite animal .
Actually , it likes milk too .
Any way , in a word , panda is our friend .
Do you know other famous animals in the world ?
Yeah , let me think , the kangaroo and koala bear from Australia are very famous .
Now the coals are just right . I can start grilling .
Here you go . I made up the burger patties for you .
Thanks . Smell the hickory chips ? They give the meat a nice , smoky flavor .
I'll take over for a while to give you a break .
Sorry . This is a one-man job . I've got the grill just how I like it , and I've made up my own special sauce .
Good morning . Mrs . Smith .
Good morning ! Can you help me , please ? I'm looking for some books for my mother .
Well , what kind of books does she like ?
She's very fond of detective stories ?
I see . Has she read any detective stories ?
Oh , yes !
Do you know if she's read this one ?
I'm not sure , but she probably won't remember if she has ! She's very forgetful !
Ah ! She has a bad memory . How old is she ?
She's eighty-seven .
I suggest you take this book . It's very exciting .
We are sorry to bring you so much trouble .
We hope that this dispute can be settled through friendly negotiation without its being submitted for arbitration .
Are you a smoker ?
Yes , I ' m afraid I am . My husband is a smoker too .
Would you describe yourself as being a heavy smoker ?
No . But my husband smokes 20 or more a day .
When did you begin to smoke ?
I had my first cigarette when I was 17 .
Might I ask if you have tried to give up smoking ?
What does it cost to ride this bus ?
The fare is $ 1 . 25 .
Have you been driving buses a long time ?
I haven't been driving for long -- only for a few months .
Do you like to drive the bus ?
Not in the least bit .
I would have never dreamed of ever becoming a bus driver .
I never dreamed of doing this either . The only thing I like about it is the money .
It was really fun chatting with you .
It was really nice talking to you too .
Have a good one .
John seems to be in high cotton . He may well become a big shot .
I bet my button dollar that he won't . He is no more than a nine day's wonder .
What is your idea ?
Do you have any particular conditions that you would like our firm to take into consideration ?
Yes . My house is far away from here . May I ask for an apartment ?
No problem . We can offer you a flat with two bedrooms and a living room .
That ' s great . If you don ' t mind my asking , does your company give bonuses ?
You ' ll get bonuses at the end of each year according to your achievements . Besides , we offer you 1 % commission on all your sales .
Oh , just one more thing , could you give me some idea about holidays ?
You can have Saturdays and Sundays off . In addition , you may have a paid month vacation every year . But when it is necessary , we do expect you to work overtime . Does it suit you ?
No problem .
If you are satisfied with the conditions here , please sign this contract and give it to me .
Maybe you should talk to the teacher .
No , it's no use .
You never know unless you try .
I ' ll take this blouse and skirt please .
How would you like to pay ?
Can I pay by card ?
Cash or card is fine .
I feel like going for a drink , it's been a long day .
Great idea ! Peter , I could use the drink .
How about the new bar across road ?
Sounds good . The food there is fantastic , too .
I agree , I had lunch there last week .
Mark , can you dress the twins for me while I take a shower ?
You don't know what you are asking !
Please ! You can do it . Their clothes are all laid out on the bed .
Remember what happened last time ?
Are you referring to KC getting her head stuck in the pant leg ?
Yes . That was a bit terrifying for both of us .
Don't worry ! Today they are wearing dresses !
Do you speak a foreign language ?
Yes . I am capable of speaking English smoothly . I have been learning English for years .
How well do you know English ?
It seems to me that you fall for good-looking guys .
Yeah .
Why don't you date up a handsome guy and spend time together ?
I have found myself a date mate .
You must have a lot in common and a barrel of fun .
Hello , can I help you ?
Yes , please . I'd like to make a reservation from Hong Kong to Tampa with a stopover in Houston .
When to leave ?
I would like to leave Hong Kong September the first and leave Houston for Tampa on September the 12th .
Ok . Can I have your name , please ?
Lily Smith .
And your telephone number ?
Hong Kong side 3854295 .
OK . Right then .
Hi , how can I help ?
I was told to come over to this window if I want to make a withdrawal . I'm not withdrawing from a Current Account , you see . I want to withdraw from my Certificate of Deposit .
Unfortunately , if you wish to withdraw on your C / D before the pre-decided date , you must give notice .
Oh , I see . Will I lose any money if I decide to withdraw on it now ?
Yes , you will lose interest . I see that you have a 5 - year C / D with us . I'm sorry to tell you that would mean losing 6 months of interest as a penalty for withdrawing before maturity .
Hello , this is Francis from XYZ Company . I would like to discuss with you about a new project some time next week . Do you have time to meet ?
Well , I am not sure . Lets me check my agenda
Ok .
I am free on Tuesday afternoon from 2 PM to 4 PM , is it convenient for you ?
It is ok with me . So I will be arriving at your office around 2 fifteen PM . Do you have a projector in your room ? I would like to show you some related charts
Room service , what can I do for you ?
I have some shirts that need laundering , and I ' d like my suit pressed .
There is a laundry form as well as a bag in your room . Pls fill it out and the maid will come pick it up .
How long will it take to get my clothes back ?
To press the suit only takes 3 hours . The laundry will be returned to you tomorrow around noon time . Is that all right ?
That ' s all right . Pls send someone to pick it up .
How was your job at the state-owned enterprise ?
Oh , I no longer work there . I'm working with a multi-national corporation .
You changed jobs again ? Why do you move so frequently ?
I want to try different things before I find the one I really like .
Why don't you stick with one job for a bit longer ?
I could handle everything pretty well in the old position , so I decided to move around and learn something new .
How's your current job going ?
Thank you for calling the Twin Theatre .
What time does the next showing of Forrest Gump begin ?
The next show is at two o'clock .
You know who won the election , right ?
I ' m still shocked that Obama was elected .
I couldn ' t believe it , either .
He just made history .
I hope you voted for him .
Of course I did . Did you ?
I made sure to vote for him .
I am really excited about this .
I know how you feel .
Hopefully , he ' ll change things in our nation .
I know that he will .
We came too early . There're still three hours before the performance starts .
I know . Sorry , I shouldn't have rushed you , but I just couldn't stay at home and wait .
Never mind . What about taking a look around the theater ?
Why not ? I'd love to do that .
Here we go . There is a museum of the Beijing Opera art . ( They come to the museum of the Beijing Opera art . )
Wow . Look at this . So delicate and beautiful . Did ancient Chinese people really wear them ?
Not really . They are just opera costumes . Do you like the embroidery ?
I surely do . They must have had advanced machines in ancient China to do that .
No , no , no . They are all handmade , girl . You know , the ancient Chinese women were supposed to be good at needlework .
Unbelievable ! I could never do that .
Very few can . That's why these clothes only appear in the museum .
Listen ! Some people are singing outside . Is it the opera ?
Oh , yes . I heard there was an opera fans club . They are probably practicing now . Wanna have a look ?
Yes , let's do it .
Follow me . Make sure not to interrupt them .
Willy , I don't think we have much butter . Can you buy some ?
Sure , Mum . In a minute .
Here's the money . And get some salt .
can I get you something to drink ?
sure , but I don't drink much . So I don't know what to order .
so how about an aperitif ?
it sounds good . I'd like to start with a Compare .
stirred or shaken ?
stirred will be fine .
here you are .
thanks . Does the bar have a signature drink ?
sure . All of our mixed drinks are excellent . You can also try a delicious non-alcoholic cocktail .
can you recommend one ?
try a Singer . It has lime juice and grenadine over ice .
it sounds interesting . I'll take one .
here we go .
it tastes great .
enjoy yourself .
Hello , sir . Is there anything I can help you find ?
Um ... Uh ... I'm just looking , thanks .
Need a gift for your girlfriend or wife ?
No , no , no . I'm just browsing . Thanks anyway .
Well , if you need anything , just ask .
Um ... well , where's the men's shoe department ?
Did you hear about Bob and Mary ?
No , what happened ?
They had an argument and split up .
Have you seen that house ?
Yes , it looks interesting .
You're right . I love it very much .
It must be old .
At least more than 100 years old .
Let's enter it !
I can't open the door .
It must be locked .
Let me ask the old woman in that reception office .
She can't answer you .
She must be deaf .
It must be a haunted house . Are you frightened ?
Lisa , I'm so glad to see you . How are you doing ?
Fine . I miss you so much , uncle Benjamin .
Me too . We haven't seen each other for years .
It's been 3 years now .
How time flies ! Now you are a college student out of a little girl .
How is aunty Shirley ?
Couldn't be better .
How has May been ?
All right , let's see who's ruining my TV time .
What are you going to do ? Call my boss and chew him out ?
Is your boss named Vic ? Your pager says , This is Vic . Here I come !
Impossible . My pager is really old . It doesn't display messages .
Here , see for yourself . That's really strange ! It's almost the same as when I ...
Did you enjoy your weekend at the highland hotel ? I heard it ' s and excellent place to stay and has good facilities .
I had a wonderful time . The rooms are not very big , but they are well furnished . The restaurant is excellent and reasonably priced . There ' s a sauna and a Jacuzzi .
Do they have a swimming pool ?
No , they don ' t . they have a beauty parlor , but I didn ' t go there .
What ' s the service like ?
It ' s very good . Check in and check out at the reception only took a few minutes . The wait staff is very good . A waiter recommended their baked fish , which tasted wonderful . The hotel was quite full , so I ' d suggest making a reservation if you intend to go there . The hotel offers a discount at the weekends .
It sounds perfect . Did you have any complaints at all ?
There was a problem with the internet access , so I couldn ' t check my email , but I didn ' t complain about it to the management .
I suppose you were happy to forget about the outside world .
Yes , I was . Here ' s their business card .
Thanks . Was there a mina bar in the room ?
No , there wasn ' t . There is a bar on the ground floor and of course you can buy drinks in the restaurant to go with your meal .
One of the things I dislike about hotels is that everyone expects tips .
I don't know why people are just mad about David Peckham . Is there really anything so fascinating with him ?
He appeals to the fans thanks to two things
you mean he plays well ? Yeah , he often scores by free kicks in crucial games . But a football match is by no means merely a show of taking free kicks .
Certainly not . What really counts is to play as a team , passing the ball amongst each other , dodging defenders . Free kicks are a result of all the teammates ' collective efforts . However , a few free k
In the case , maybe facial charm should be his leading card . After all , the majority of his fans are girls .
yes , his face looks are manly , with a straight nose and infinite eyes . As a man of medium height in the West , he keeps a powerful but elegant figure , looking neither lanky nor stout .
The teacher should give us more time to complete this assignment .
I think we have had a very pleasant conversation , haven't we ?
Yes , I think so too .
Do you have any other questions ?
Let me think ... I want to know if the company can provide free accommodation for a new employee .
I'm sorry we can't now .
I really hope that your company could provide living places ; otherwise I have to rent a house to live .
Maybe the company will build dormitory for the employees in the future .
That would work too .
Anything else ?
Some companies will pay part of the phone bills for the employees . Will this company do so ?
I'm sorry we won't do so for a new employee . We only provide this benefit to employees who have made significant contributions to the company .
I understand . Will the company provide training ?
Yes , we will , and the staff will have a chance to travel every year .
Let ' s see if we can reach some sort of agreement over your curfew .
Ok , every one asks their parents let them stay out until 2 or 3 in the morning .
Well , I ' m not everyone-else ' s father . I think you need be in the house by ten o ' clock .
That ' s absurd . I know some junior high kids who can stay out later than that .
I ' ll be worried if you stay out late .
Excuse me , please . Could you tell me how to get to the No . 10 Middle School ?
Walk down this road , take the fourth turn to the right . Then you'll see it .
Is it far from here to there ?
No . It's only about five minutes ' walk .
Many thanks !
May I help you ?
Yes , I would like to return these slacks .
Alright . Do you have your receipt ?
Yes . Here it is . I bought them last week .
And why are you returning them ?
I bought them to go with a blouse of mine . But they don't really match .
I see . Oh , wait . Ma'am , I'm sorry . These slacks were on sale .
Yes , they were thirty percent off .
I'm sorry , but we don't allow returns on sale items .
I know many stores have that policy . But I have returned sale items here before .
I'm sorry , but we usually don't do it . It is our policy .
I just bought these slacks a week ago . And I am a regular customer here . Can you make an exception this time ?
Well . Let me talk to the manager for a moment . Ma ' am , the manager says I can do it this time .
Good . I'm a regular customer here . I am glad you can make an exception for me .
Please show me your receipt again .
Here it is .
I will have to give you store credit , Ma'am . If you find something else you like in the store , you can use the credit .
Store credit is okay with me . I'm sure I will find something I like . I shop here a lot .
I failed the exam because I didn't study .
My elder aunt feels like vomiting , she is pregnant .
She'd better drink plenty of hot water and lie in bed .
But she feels like having no appetite at all if she stays at home all day .
Our national economy is increasing hand over fist .
That ' s really a good phenomenon to see .
Excuse me , can you tell me where central Park Street is ?
Turn right at the third light and then go straight for two blocks .
Is it far ?
No . It's only a ten-minute walk .
I see . Thanks a lot .
I just dropped in to say goodbye .
What time are you leaving ?
I'll leave at 10 o'clock .
Take care and give my best to you parents .
Have you been taken of , miss ?
I am Looking for a T-shirt .
We have quite a variety of shirts here .
What kind of material is this ?
Silk . You have a good taste . It's excellent for its handiness , elegance and beauty .
Miss Gray , would you please type this report for me ?
Of course , Mr . Green .
Can you print it out before 12 o'clock ? I need it this afternoon .
No problem . I will do it immediately .
Please double space it and print it out on the laser printer so I can read it easily .
OK . Would you like this report done in a formal or informal style ?
Please type it in a formal style .
I see . Anything else ?
What would you like to eat ?
I'd like a hamburger with lettuce and tomato .
How about something to drink ?
A Coke , please .
Jack , I hear you got promoted . Is that true ?
Yes . I think I'm lucky .
Oh , Jack , you deserve it . You ' Ve been working so hard .
Ah , Hello . So , you are back ?
Yes . I received everything in the post this morning .
That's good . Could I please see the originals of everything ?
What's the exchange rate today ?
You're pretty lucky actually , today is higher than yesterday . It's 824 . 71 RIB for 100 USD .
Great ! Do you need me to sign anything ?
In the past half year , we made some schedules and objectives , do you still remember that ?
Of course . I spent the whole week to know the general process for these plans . And since I was employed , I have been working on them . Madam , how am I doing ? Are you satisfied with my job ?
How do you feel what you have done ? Did you meet our goals ?
I suppose so . I tried my best to be familiar with all these appliances and office process . Certainly without my colleagues ' help , I could not do these things in such a short period .
Yes . And you also overworked in last month , when Steven asked for leave . I have been very satisfied with your performance . And your dependability has been a great asset .
Hello , Tom , are you free next Sunday ?
I think so . Why did you ask that ?
I'm going to have my first baby , so I plan to hold a baby shower next Sunday .
Congratulations ! Why do people hold parties before the baby is born ?
It's the tradition . But baby showers as we know them today were not common until after World Warri .
In any case , I like baby showers , because they allow friends and family to share the joy and excitement of welcoming a new life into the world .
So you will come , won't you ?
Of course . I will prepare a good gift for the new arrival .
Time flies !
I feel confused by all the diet options out there . I don ' t know which one actually works .
Most of them are not so practical . It will be very bad for your health if you skip lunches or supers as the recommended . I think making an exercise plan can be more effective .
Maybe you ' re right . It is very expensive to go to a weight-loss center . I ' d better join in a fitness club .
You don ' t need to lose weight , you are not fat .
I would like to order a suit made to my own measure .
I share the same opinion . You are over-weight so it's hard for you to buy clothes .
Maybe I should try to lose weight .
Come on in . I am so glad you are here . We have been expecting you .
Am I late for the party ? Looks everyone is already here . Hope I didn ' t miss something interesting .
No , you are just on time . We haven ' t really started yet .
Great , here are some flowers for you . I hope you like them . I was not sure if the color will suit your new apartment .
Thank you , they ' re beautiful . You can hang your coat over there . Try this new couch , it is so comfortable . You will love it . Want something to drink , tea , coffee , juice or Cola ?
Don ' t bother . I will help myself .
Make yourself at home .
It is such a nice place .
Hurry up . We're going to be late .
I am hurrying .
What are you doing ?
Can you tell me the best way to see the city ?
Sure , I advise the sightseeing buses .
Travel by the buses ? That sounds interesting .
Yes of course . You can see the whole city on the bus . It's cheap as well as efficient .
Hello Mei , How about going for a meal this evening ?
Good idea ! I finish work at five . Why don ' t we meet at six ?
Ok that sounds good . Where shall I meet you ?
Let ' s meet in front of the train station .
Ok great , I ' ll see you at six .
Good day . How can we assist you ?
I need to get a Letter of Credit . Is this the right window ?
It certainly is . Do you have your contract and Import License ?
Yes , right here in my brief case . Just a moment , please .
Thanks . What you need to do now is deposit 100 % of the guaranteed funds of your contract into your account with us .
That's done . There is more than enough to cover the contract amount in our account .
How many people are there in your family ?
Five . Besides my parents and me , there are my brother and sister .
That is a big family . How old is your sister ?
15 .
What about your brother ?
He ' s not quite 25 .
Do you miss your family ?
Yes .
Do you often go home ?
No . But I write to them often .
How often do you write to them ?
Hello . miss . I am wondering if there is a meal served on this flight .
Well , it's a short distance flight , so we don't serve meals . But there are some drinks .
Are you ready for your big interview tomorrow ?
What ' s to get ready ?
Lots ! Have you done any research about the company ?
Nope .
Have you updated your CV ?
Hello , may I speak to Alice please ?
This is she . How's it going ?
I've been trying to call you all day .
Sorry about that . I was cleaning up .
It's okay .
So what were you calling me about ?
Oh , I just wanted to see if you wanted to hang out tomorrow .
Sure , what did you want to do ?
Maybe we can go see a movie or something .
That sounds like fun . Let's do it .
I'll see you tomorrow then .
Would you please take a seat over there ? There are some interesting magazines on the coffee-table .
Thank you . How long it take to get my son's hair cut ?
It shouldn't be long . Thirty minutes , tops . Are you in a hurry ?
No . I'm thinking that maybe I can get my hair shampooed .
Good idea . Do you want a wash or a massage ? Massage is especially good when you are tired .
How come ?
Because it helps you speed up your circulation .
Then I won't say no to that .
How do you like it ?
I feel totally refreshed .
We have discount coupons . 100 Yuan for ten times . Would you like to have one ?
This time included ?
Of course .
Hello . Mr . Rodriguez ?
Yes . Is this Paula ?
Yes , sir . I ' Ve just dropped those slides off at the Winthrop office . Do you need anything else while I ' m out ?
Hello , Kevin .
Oh , hi , Lee . You look great .
I like this shirt . How much is it ?
$ 135 .
Wow , that's sheer robbery . Shall I make an offer ?
Hi , Mary , it ' s been a long time .
Hello , my old friend . Long time no see . How are you doing ?
Well , I ' m doing okay . And how about yourself ?
Not so well . To be honest with you , I broke up with Tom .
I need to cancel my reservation . I have personal matters that need fixing .
That's not a problem . Just give me your name , phone number , and date of visit .
Rudy Randolph , 818-555-1234 , April 9 through 15 .
I see your info here on the screen . I'll hit just one button , sir , and you're cancelled .
Thank you . I'm glad that wasn't too much of a bother .
What day is today ?
Today is December twenty-third , two thousand and two .
Oh , The day after tomorrow is Christmas .
Merry Christmas , Mr . Wang . I would like to give you the book I specially chose as my appreciation for your sincere help to me in the past few days .
Thanks , Mr . White . That's very kind of you .
I hope it will be of some use to you .
I am sure it will . It'll be of great help in carrying on the work I have done so far .
What sports do you think women excel at most ?
I think women excel in every sport except the ones that are taboo for us to join in , like football .
I mean which ones are they better at than men ?
Why do you care ? Women and men are different all around . I don't think they can be compared .
That's a good point . Let me change my question . What sports do women like best ?
Well , I know some women who love golf and I know others who love contact sports .
Are you saying that women can't be generally categorized ?
I wonder if you could do me a favor .
I'd be happy to help you . Name it .
My printer is broken . Can you print up a copy for me ?
Sure , no problem . Do you want me to edit it for you ?
Please , you write much better than I do .
Hi , Jim and Wendy . Where're you going ?
What ? How could you forget to reserve the concert tickets ?
I'm sorry . I forget all about it .
How could you ? I reminded you just this morning .
It's leap my mind . I really feel terrible about it .
I have been looking forward to this performance all month .
I never watch foreign films . They're too boring .
Jason , you have no taste . You think First Blood is a good movie .
Hey , it is ! A lot of people like that movie !
I'm sorry , but it's a bad movie . The plot is stupid , and the script is poorly written .
Face it , you don't like action movies because you're a snob .
Would you mind doing something for me ?
I would if I could .
Would you please explain the meaning of the word ?
Could you make up this prescription for me , please ?
Certainly . I'll do it for you right away . Sorry the drugs on this order are out of stock .
What can I do ?
Would you prefer to take similar medicine of other brands ?
Could I ?
Certainly . I recommend this medicine . It's the same medicine , same quality , at a much lower cost . And it helps just as much . In fact , you'll feel better just by saving the money , I promise .
Great . I'll take this brand . And how do I take these medicines ?
This is for internal use . Two tablets , four times a day .
Thank you .
Fred , is it a good time to talk with you ?
Sure , what's the matter ?
As you know , I have accepted three new programs in our company this year , but I am not sure I can do my work well . And right now my dilemma is that I can not find a person whom I can trust for these three programs .
What do you think we can do about this ?
We are not willing to miss the chance ; however , our staff is not big enough now . So , to be honest , I want you to help me to finish all these programs .
Well , sir , I am busy in market development . So I am worried whether I can do this .
I am aware you have been working so hard . Before hiring more employees , you are still needed to do this .
May I help you , sir ?
I need a hat . Would you show me some ?
Certainly , here you are .
I like the black one . May I try it on ?
Of course . It fits you perfectly .
Yes , I thinks so . How much is it ?
It's forty-five yuan .
Can you make it much cheaper ?
Mr Ludlow , hello . It's good to see you again . What can we do for you today ?
Hello , I'm sorry it's been such a long time . I've been away on business . I'd like to discount this .
No problem . Could I please see the bill and all of the other documents ?
Yeah , sure . Here they are . Take your time going through them , I'm in no hurry .
There's no problem here , everything's in order . I can transact that for you now .
Do I need to pay anything ? Like a handling fee , or something ?
Can I help you ?
Yes , I need to apply for a parking permit .
Are you a professor ?
What ? Are you kidding ? I'm only 22 years old !
Yes , I am kidding . But don't you know only professors and students with disabilitiescan apply for parking permits ?
Yes , I know . I have a disability . My hip was broken last year . And I can't walk well .
Oh , I'm sorry . I didn't know .
It's alright . You didn't see me walk to the desk .
Here is the application form . I also need to see your student ID and your permission letter from the university .
My permission letter ?
Yes , the letter that certifies you have a disability . And it must certify your disability entitles you to a parking place .
I was told I should have the letter sent directly to your office .
Yes . Or you can bring it yourself .
But I asked them to send it to you directly .
Let me look in the file then . Maybe we received it .
My name is Derek Schneider , S - C - H - N - E - I - D - E - R .
Yes , here it is . Alright . Then I just need your completed application form , and I will be able to process your request .
Good . I will sit over there and fill out the form . I will give it to you in a few minutes . Oh , by the way , can I apply for any parking lot I want ?
The form has a map on the back . You may specify your top four choices . We will give a spot in the lot that has an opening .
I see . Thank you .
May I serve your dishes now ?
No , I'm used to having tea first .
With sugar ?
Wake up , Erik , time to rise and shine .
Huh , oh , hi , Jane . I must have fallen asleep while I was reading .
You and everyone else . It looks more like a camp-ground than a library .
Well , the dorm ' s too noisy to study in , and I guess this place is too quiet .
Have you had any luck finding a topic for your paper ?
No . Prof . Grant told us to write about anything in cultural anthropology . For once I wish she hadn ' t given us so much of a choice .
Well , why not write about the ancient civilizations of Mexico . You seem to be interested in that part of the world .
I am , but there is too much material to cover . I ' ll be writing forever , and Grant only wants five to seven pages .
So they limit it to one region of Mexico . Say the Yucatan . You ' Ve been there and you said it ' s got lots of interesting relics .
Excuse me . Could you tell me how to get to the library ?
Of course . It's on Memorial Avenue .
On Memorial Avenue ?
Right . You know where that is ?
I'm afraid I don't . I'm quite new in town .
Well , do you know where the post office is ?
No , I don't . But I do know where the shopping mall is .
That won't help us . Let me see now ... Why don't you follow this street , Elm , until , you get to the second stoplight .
Hello , Mrs . Taylor . I'm here to pick up Diane .
Excuse me .
Yeah ?
I've never used this place before . Can you give me some idea what I need to do ?
You just put quarters in the machines . It ' s easy .
Yes , but ... well ...
What ?
How do I use the machines ?
What do you mean ? These are the washing machines . Those big things over there are the dryers .
I see . Do the machines have soap in them ?
No , of course not . You have to put soap in . Did you bring your soap ?
No . I don't have soap .
Well , you can buy some from that vending machine over there .
Thanks . Okay . I have my soap .
My God ! You really bought a lot . Why do you need so much ?
I don't know . I want my clothes to be clean .
But you can't use so much . The machine won't be able to rinse the soap out .
Oh . I guess I didn't know . I have never washed clothes before .
What ? Did you say you never washed clothes before ?
Yes .
In your life ? Are you kidding ? Never ?
No . Never .
I can't believe it . How can that be ? How old are you ?
I'm nineteen .
But how can you live nineteen years without ever washing clothes ?
My mother always did it .
Yes , my mother washed my clothes too . But when I was twelve , I started to wash clothes myself .
I know about this fact . American children are more independent . They do more for themselves . But I am from Taiwan . In Taiwan , children must study very hard . So the mother does everything for the kids . The mother wants her kids to get very good grades at school . So I've never washed clothes before . You shouldn't laugh at me for it .
I'm not laughing at you . But let me ask you something ?
What ?
How are you going to survive here ? I mean , if you can't do anything for yourself . If you can't cook , if you can't wash clothes , if you can't clean house . How can you live on your own ?
I don't know . It's hard . But I have to learn .
Well , I'll help you learn how to use these machines .
Thanks . My name's Nick .
I'm Alice . I guess I'll have to be your mother for today .
Are you feeling better today , Bill ?
Well , it's hard to say . I cough a lot in the evening .
You'd better give up smoking . It's bad for your health .
You're right , but you know , it's hard to give up an old habit .
But you should make up your mind first .
You know , I often have to work til late at night . I need something to keep me awake .
Why don't you go to bed and get up early ? You'll have the same time for work .
I'm concerned about your car .
It will be fine .
But I think I can help to fix it .
I have some good news for you . We've decided we'd like to send you to Shanghai on a business trip this weekend .
Oh .
Don't you think that it'd be a good thing for you to get out of the office foe a couple of days ?
Sure .
I thought you'd be a bit more excited about this . Everything will be paid for and I'll send my assistant with you to take care of everything for you . All you have to do is to get on the train tonight at 7 pm .
The train ? Will I be flying back then ?
Oh , no . We've bought your return ticket for you . I think you'll find it comfortable .
Will the train be very crowded ?
Oh no . the train hasn't been crowded at all recently . Besides , you're in first-class , so you'll be fine .
When is the first meeting then ?
They've scheduled the negotiation meeting for 9
Where will I be staying ?
We've booked you a room in the same hotel as your meetings , so you won't need to deal much with the transportation system .
That's very sensible . Would it be alright if I left early today to prepare for the trip ?
Can I see your passport , please ?
Is this line for non-residents ?
Yes it is . Residents can queen up in the lines to my right .
Ok . Here's my passport .
What's the expiration date on your passport ?
I think it's soon , maybe in a few months . It was renewed in Beijing , so the new expiry date is on the last page .
I see . Yes , you'll need to renew your passport in a few months . Make sure you don't let it expire while you are in the UK .
I won't .
Do you have anything to declare ?
No , I don't have anything to declare .
How long will you be staying in the UK ?
I'll be here for about a year .
What is the purpose of your stay ?
I'll be studying . I'm doing an MBA at Nottingham University .
Where will you be staying ?
I have a housing contract with the university . I'll be in a dorm room on campus .
How do you plan on paying for your living costs and tuition fees while you are here ?
My father has already paid for that in advance . Here are the receipts .
Ok . Have a good stay . Here's your passport and documents back .
Good afternoon !
Good afternoon ! Sit down , please . How are you ?
I'm very well , thank you . How are you ?
Very well too , thank you very much . Isn ' t it a lovely day ?
Yes , it's beautiful , but it's also very hot .
Yes .
What's the weather like in your country ?
Mm ... It's quite warm now .
Where do you live ?
In London . Where do you live ?
do you like music ?
well , it depends .
do you think this music is warm matched ?
of course yes .
how about the lyrics ?
very touching .
it bring me back to some of my childhood memories .
yes , it is so . i love songs that take me to some places i have not been or have been for a long time . it is fun and exciting .
of course . it is really fantastic too , and it makes me eager to dance .
it is full of energy .
this song is really worthy listening to and enjoying .
You're going to abandon me , just like that ?
Good morning , Mr . Smith . Would you like to see around the factory ?
Yes , I would like to .
This is the good life ! We have it good don ' t you think ?
Yeah of course ! Although , don ' t you ever wonder what could have been ?
What do you mean ?
Well , sometimes I think of how things could have turned out if I had done things a little differently .
For example ?
Like for example , if I hadn ' t studied architecture , I would have become an artist like I wanted to .
I see . Yeah now that I think of it , I wouldn ' t have gotten married if I hadn ' t moved to this town and met Sally .
You see ! Everything happens for a reason ! We wouldn ' t even have met if I hadn ' t been in that car accident ten years ago !
Well , I have no regrets !
Do you have this design with only one breast pocket ?
Let me see . Oh , we have the design but not the same color as this one .
It's a pity . I'm afraid that's too loud for me . Thank you .
What do you think of our price ?
Your price has gone up sharply , hasn't it ?
Yes , we regret we cannot maintain our original price . Since the prices of the raw materials have been raised , we have to adjust the price of our products accordingly .
I agree with you there , but you price is unreasonable .
I don't think so . You must compare our price with that it other export houses . I'm sure our offer is in line with the prevailing market price level .
I don't think we will be able to pay the price . To have this business concluded , you need to lower your price at least by 3 % .
I'm afraid that there is no room for any reduction in price .
Don't you agree with me that in the long run moderate prices we bring about large sales and more profit ?
We've already cut down our price to cost level .
Is that all ?
Yes this is the best we can do .
What type of music do you like to listen to ?
I like listening to different kinds of music .
Like what , for instance ?
I enjoy Rock and R & B .
Why is that ?
I like the different instruments that they use .
That's a good reason to like something .
Excuse me . Can I ask you a question ?
Sure . What is it ?
I don't know how to say it in English .
We call this a ' parking meter ' .
Oh , Thank you . But how do you spell it ?
Who's calling , please ?
This is John .
What is it , John ?
What are you going to eat with your sandwich ?
I think I'm going to eat a piece of fruit .
What kind do you like ?
I really like apples and grapes .
What kind of apples do you like ?
I love green apples .
I don't like green apples .
Really ? Why not ?
Green apples are too sour for me .
So , you like red apples better ?
Yeah , I love red apples .
Simon , may I introduce you to Linda ? You don ' t know each other , do you ?
No . I ' Ve not had the pleasure of meeting her yet .
How do you do ? I ' m pleased to meet you .
How do you do ?
Please sit down . Help yourself just like you are at home .
What would you like to drink ?
Can you tell the result ?
It's love all .
Now the score is in our favor .
Can you tell which team seems to win ?
Hard to say . Now the score is in our favor .
Yes . Our guest team is really tough .
Are you aware of the reason why I pulled you over ?
No , sir .
I pulled you over because your brake light is out .
I'm sorry . I did not know that .
I have to write you a ticket .
Can't you give me a warning ?
I'm not going to be able to do that .
How much will the fine be ?
You'll find that out on your court date .
I have to go to court over a brake light ?
That's how it works .
Why do you change your job and apply for a translator ?
This job is more challenging and I have longed to be a translator . That ' s why I came here for an interview .
What do you think are the capacities for a success as a translator ?
Where can I park my car ?
You need to get a car tag first . There's a one hundred Yuan deposit for the car tag .
Okay . Here you are .
Taxi .
Yes . Where would you like to go ?
Central Park , please , but can you make a stop at Union Square ? I wanna pick up my friend there .
Of course .
How long do you think it will take to get to Union Square .
Well . That depends on traffic , you know . It's pretty heavy this afternoon .
Can you make it in 15 mins . I am already 10 mins late .
I'll try . Where exactly is your friend waiting ?
On the 14th Street side . Oh , we are already at the 16th Street . You are fast . Can you make a left at the next corner ?
You've got it .
I think he is around here . Can you slow down ? Ah , there he is .
Here we are , Central Park !
Thank you . How much is it ?
Well , it's $ 12 .
Here's $ 15 . Keep the change .
The bonus season is coming . How much of a bonus can I expect ?
I think you will get a big bonus , because you always have high sales .
I hope so . I think you will get a big bonus too . Bonus depends on your performance and you worked overtime almost every day .
Yes , I am expecting to get the bonus . I hope we will both get the salary and bonus .
Ok . Let ' s look at our short presentation on China . What do we need to include ?
We need to talk about the size of the country and its population .
Ok . China is about the same size as Canada and the united states and it has a population of about 1 . 3 billion , making it the latest country in the world by population .
It says here that most of the people are han Chinese , but there are 55 minorities that make up almost 10 % of the population .
We need to say something about the geography and climate of china . Is there any way to divide the country into sections ?
We could divide into five parts . There ' s the northeast , which is mild in summer and very cold in winter . Then there is the northwest , which is largely desert . Tillet is famous for its mountainous climate . The rest of the country can be roughly divided into two parts . One is temperate-mild in winter and warm in summer . Then , in the south it is hot most of the year .
That sounds very general .
It is , buy remember that we only have a few minutes to make our presentation . We can select cities from each part and give data for each one .
One from each part ? Lhasa , Urumqi , Harbin , shanghai , and hongkong . The capital city is Beijing , right ?
Yes . The other large cities are Chengdu , Dalian , Wuhan , tianjin , shenyang , Chongqing . Hongkong and Guangzhou .
You are married to a foreigner , aren't you ? So what's it like ?
Well , in the first year of our marriage , we had great difficulties in getting along . The things that are important to me are not important to him . We had a lot of conflicts .
Yeah , I know what you mean . The first year of any marriage is difficult for all couples , not to mention two people from different cultures .
Now we have a two-year-old boy . We're very happy that he's healthy and smart .
Oh , so he's half Chinese and half American . That's unusual . What languages does he speak , then ?
Right now he speaks mostly English , and he can say a few Chinese words . But he will learn in the future .
What does he look like ? Can people tell ?
Has the game started yet ?
Yeah , about 5 minutes ago .
Who's winning ?
The Bulls , of course !
What ! That wasn't a foul ! C ' mon , ref !
Don ' t worry , Shan always screws up free throws .
You were right ! He didn ' t make the shot !
That was a great shot ! A three pointer , yeah !
Did you see that ? He traveled and the ref didn ' t call it !
This ref needs glasses . Hey ref , open your eyes ! I can ' t believe he didn ' t see that !
Good morning , I am Monica . Are you Mr . White , the manager of finance department ? I am the newcomer and also working in the finance department .
Yes , that is me . Nice to meet you , Monica . Welcome on board !
Thank you . I am very happy to have my own office now . I ' Ve never had one before . It is very nice .
Well , we have nicer things than that in this company . You will find out soon .
Really ? What could that be ?
Well , I bet you will love them too . If you need help , just ask me any time . I am in the next door . You can also reach me through the extension 508 .

Not a problem . Could you tell me you L / C number , please ?
It's TH 15699324873 0 .
OK , just checking for you ... yes , they have arrived . How would you like me to handle them ?
Would it be possible to transfer them to IBA Bank ?
Okay , show me your card hand . Here's mine . I have three Kings and a pair of Aces .
How did you get that ? No need to show you my hand , I lose . This is not as much fun as the music concert we just saw .
Thanks again for buying the tickets . That was the most exciting live concert I've ever seen . That silver electric guitar was really cool .
They're quite popular now . Wasn't her voice good ?
That , My Heart Will Go On . It warms my heart . you know , JanetJackson , Shanna Twain and Celine Dion are so very different .
Janet Jackson is more pop music . Shania sings country music . Celine just seems to hit all the right notes .
Have you heard Maria Carey ?
Yes , l have two of her Cds , l'II lend them to you if you like .
Excellent . You can borrow my Janet Jackson's CD . It's her new one .
I hope you have a good stereo .
Why ?
Hey , Mike . You've been surfing the Net for quite a while . What on earth are you searching for ?
It's something relative hackers . I often hear people talking about them , but I don't know much about them .
Well , roughly speaking , a hacker is a computer buff .
You mean a guy using enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the computer ?
You can say that .
But why are people always having such a negative attitude towards them ?
They must have mixed hackers with crackers .
What is crackers then ?
There is another group of people who loudly call themselves hackers , but they aren't . They break into computers and break the phone system . Real hackers call these people crackers , and want nothing to do with them .
So they are two totally different concepts .
Well , the real hackers mostly think crackers are lazy , irresponsible and not very bright , and feel that being able to break security does make you a hacker any more than being able to start cars without keys makes you an automotive engineer . Unfortunately , many journalists and writers have been fooled into using the word hacker to describe crackers . This irritates real hackers to no end .
I see . Then the basic different is , hackers build things , crackers break them .
You got it .
Thanks a lot .
Hi , Mary , it ' s been a long time
Hello , my old friend . Long time no see . How are you doing ?
Well , I ' m doing okay . And how about yourself ?
Not so well . To be honest with you , I broke up with Tom .
What time is it by your watch ?
I'm sorry , my watch has stopped .
It's 2:42 by my watch . But it moves a bit fast .
Mom , give me a glass of orange juice .
What the magic ward to say if you want something good to happen ?
Oh , sorry mom , i forgot . please give me a glass of orange juice .
Ok , here you are .
Oh , it is nice and cold , definitely good orange juice .
Amy , you forgot another magic word .
Oh , sorry again , thank you mom .
I used to be down on the sales people until I saw her in action .
She means business , for sure .
Most salespeople seem like half-brains . Zina's definitely an exception .
We'd better get back to work .
I decided to give it a go !
Good for you . What items did you bid on ?
A DENY shirt and one of Serena Williams ' used tennis rackets !
Your idol ! Wow ! You're even better at finding stuff than me !
Yep . I placed a bid for the shirt . The minimum was ten so I bet fifty !
That's not how this game works .
Well , there was a sign that said " Buy now for seventy . "
Do you hear what happened to Sally ?
No , what ?
She had to go to the hospital .
Why ?
She passed out in class . Seems she hadn't eaten anything in days .
Why on earth would she do that ? You mean that she intentionally did not eat any food for days ? That's crazy !
Yeah , but that's what she did .
I can't believe that there are girls who are willing to do that to their bodies . And all for a certain look .
Well , it's not just the girl ' s fault . It's also society's fault - magazines and ads that show - thin models all saying , It's in to be thin . It's hard for them not to listen .
Can I help you ?
Is this the right subway to the Wall Street ?
Yes , it is .
Could you tell me shall I take the express or local train ?
Sure . The local train . It stops at every station .
Which of them is the local train , please ?
You take the D train on the downtown platform , and go three stops .
How much is the fare ?
One dollar and twenty cents . You give me the money and I ' ll exchange it for a token .
What should I do with the token ?
Good morning . Sanyu Restaurant . May I help you ?
What time do you open this evening ?
We open at 6:30 , sir .
I see . I'd like to reserve a table for two .
Yes , sir . What time would you like your table , sir ?
I'm not sure , perhaps around 8 pm .
Fine ! I'll reserve a table for two at 8 pm , sir . May I have your name , please ?
Davis .
Thank you , Mr . Davis .
Oh , any chance of a table by the window ? My wife loves the bird's eye view . As it's her birthday , I want it to be a celebration .
I see . We have already received many bookings and though I can't guarantee anything , please be assured that we'll try our best , Mr . Davis . I hope you'll understand .
I do , but I would appreciate you , if it could be arranged .
We'll try our best .
I wonder if you can help me . I ' m looking for a room .
Yes . I ' Ve get a small room .
How much do you charge ?
35 . 00 dollars a week , but I don ' t allow smoking .
OK . Can I see the room now ?
Could you lend your bike to me for several days ?
How long would you like to keep it ?
Till the end of the week .
So the company decided to cancel your trip to Hong Kong ?
Yes , The SARS epidemic is not under effective control yet . So I'd better not risk it .
Maybe it's a good things . If you don't have to go to Hong Kong , you can take a break and take things easy for a while .
You are right . Maybe we should work out a fitness plan and start to do more exercise . Sitting around in the office all day is no way of keeping fit .
Stephen , can you work overtime tonight ?
What's wrong ? We have been working overtime recently .
The holiday is coming so we need to finish our task .
Must we finish our task before the holiday ?
Yes . The contract must be kept .
OK . I know . But Bob wanted to change shifts with me tonight .
Did he say why ?
He said he would celebrate his girlfriend's birthday .
Don't worry . I will tell him about that .
It is convenient for me to work overtime tonight .
I wonder if you could help me find something for my daughter .
Do you think she'd like a laptop ?
I think that would be perfect .
A Mac is something most people appreciate .
In fact , she prefers Macs . How much is one ?
Our 15 - inch Pro will cost you only $ 2,100 .
She's going to be so happy . Let me have one .
You've made a good decision . How would you like to pay ?
I'll pay for it with my VISA .
It's all yours after you sign here , please .
Are there any extras that she needs ?
This is good to go . If she wants accessories , just visit us again .
You've been so helpful . Thank you .
Hello . Can I help you ?
Yes , I hope so . I would like to register for Comp Lit 287 .
I'm sorry , but that class is already full . And also , students are supposed to register through the touch-tone registration system .
I know . I already tried to register for it by phone , but the computer won't let me .
That's because it's full .
But I'm a new student here . I thought maybe there was some way I could get into the class . I thought I should come and talk to you in the department office .
Well , I could put you on a waiting list . But that doesn't guarantee you will get into the class . What is your name ?
My name is Karen Huang . That's spelled H - U - A - N - G .
Alright . And what is your major ?
I'm a comparative literature major .
Wait a minute . You're a Comp Lit major ?
Yes , that's right .
Why didn't you tell me ? I didn't know you were one of our students .
That's why I'm trying to get into Comp Lit 287 . I know it's a required class . And Professor Cohen told me I need to take it .
The university computer system saves extra places , in class 287 for comp lit students . I can give you a special code . When you register by phone , you can use the code to get into the class .
Even if the class is full ?
That's right .
Oh , I didn't know that .
Sure . Here is the code number , with information on how to use it .
Thank you . So you think I will be able to get in with this ?
Sure . Just call the touch-tone registration system again . Then , follow the directions on the sheet . You will get in no problem .
Thanks .
And so , I just wanted to check in with you and find out where we are with this project . As you know , you ' Ve missed a fairly significant deadline last week , and this will negativity impact the team ' s ability to move forward with the next stages of this project .
I know , I ' m really sorry that I missed the deadline . But really , it wasn ' t my fault . You see , we had all of these unexpected technical problems at the last minute , and that I couldn ' t get into the database and extract the kind of information that I needed for the data analysis . You know , if the tech guys would have done their job and kept the ARM stable , then I wouldn ' t have missed my deadline .
Oh , come on ! An excuse like that is tantamount to lying . You ' re essentially blaming the tech team for your time management issues , rather than accepting responsibility for the fact that you were procrastinating for the past two weeks .
No , I ' m not trying to pass the buck here ; I know that it was me who is ultimately responsible for getting this done . But the thing is , I could have finished on time if the system hadn ' t gone down . And you know , with everything I ' Ve got going on now , I can ' t afford to waste time dealing with technical problems . I ' Ve got a lot on my plate and there are only twenty-four hours in a day ...
It's hot today , shall we go for a dip at the beach ?
That's a good idea . Let's bring our trunks and towels .
Would you like to swim in the swimming pool or at the beach ?
I'd prefer the pool .
OK . Let's pay the entrance fee and change our clothes in the dressing room .
What style do you use ?
I would like to pick a time to look at houses with you .
Would mornings or afternoons be best for you ?
It is easier for me to take off work in the afternoon .
It is best if we can go during the week ; does that work for you ?
Because of work , I can only go look at houses on the weekend .
Would you like to meet at the real estate office , or should I pick you up at home ?
If you could pick me up at home , that would be great .
We could spend most of the day looking at houses to see all that we have to see .
That might be a little too much , but we ' ll see how it goes .
how is your house hunting going ?
not very well . I haven ' t found anything within my price range yet .
how much are you looking to spend ?
I can only afford about 300 pounds a month .
looks like you ' re not going to get more than a bedroom in a shared flat with that .
really ? That ' s a lot of money to pay for one room .
well , if you want to live in London , you have to pay the price !
do you know of anyone who needs a roommate ?
I can ask around at work . Do you have a preference for makers or non-smokers ?
I ' d prefer non-smoking roommates , but I guess I ' ll have to take what I can get !
how long do you want to sign a contract for ?
I can sign a contract up to a year . I don ' t know where I ' ll be after that .
do you need a furnished or unfurnished apartment ?
I don ' t have any furniture , so it ' d be great if it were furnished .
you know that you ' ll have to pay utilities on top of the rent , right ?
no , I thought that would be included in the rent .
it ' s not usually included , so you ' ll have to factor in about 100 pounds more each month for utilities .
I don't think I can afford that .
don ' t worry . Sometimes people will give you a discount if you promise to do the clearing or take care of the children .
Thomas , would you be so kind as to lay the table for me ? I'm busy in the kitchen .
Of course ! Where are the things ?
They're all here .
Right ! I'll do it straight away .
I am past my stop . Would you please let me get off ?
I am sorry . It's not allowed . You have to wait till the next station .
Well , that's OK .
Can you please slow down ? I am not in a hurry .
Ok , so where do you think we can save more money ?
Well , we could eat in more . That 300 dollars for entertainment is mostly going to restaurants .
Yeah . That ' s a good idea and you like to cook . What about the books ?
No , I need my books .
Come on . If we save more money , we can retire earlier and you ' ll actually have time to read all those books you buy .
Well , what about the 50 you spent on a shirt ? You could have gotten something for less .
Ok . Let's compromise . If you agree to only spend 75 on books , I'll agree to only spend 40 for my next shirt .
How may I help you ?
I need to get on the Internet .
Do you have your library card with you ?
Yes , I have it .
You ' re going to have to wait for a computer .
That ' s okay .
Please put your name on this list .
Then what do I need to do ?
When there is a computer available , I will call you .
What do I do to log on to the computer ?
Just type in the number on the back of your library card .
Is it going to rain today ?
It's supposed to rain .
I really hate this weather .
Does Tom drink a lot ?
Yes , he does . He often has had one to many . But I advised him not to drink too much , he just boasted that he had hollow legs and nobody had ever drunk him under the table .
Mike , these flowers are just gorgeous .
I ' m glad you like them . Happy birthday !
I can ' t thank you enough . I ' m really touched . I don ' t know what to say .
Forget it . It ' s my pleasure . You mean a lot to me .
Harry , do you like the opera ?
No , not really .
Why is that ? It is called real art .
Well , it's very expensive and they're usually singing in another language . That kind of gets on my nerves .
Are you a newcomer ?
Yeah , this is my first visit here .
You speak good English , though .
Thanks , but I speak English with a strong German accent .
But let me tell you , you're doing just fine . I couldn't do half as well as you do when I was learning German . By the way , how long have you been learning English ?
Congratulations ! I heard that you are going to take a two-week training course in the headquarter .
Thank you . I am very happy to have this opportunity to learn something new . You know information and knowledge in this field update very fast .
Sure it is . This is a changing world . Does the training course cover the new law and regulation issued last month ? They are very useful for us .
Yes , according to the agenda , there will be a seminar on these issues at the very beginning of the training course .
Well , good for you . I hope you can get what you want from the training .
Good afternoon . Is this the Roley Hotel ?
Yes , madam . May I help you ?
Yes . I ' m calling from Westwood and Westwood Attorneys . I need to make a reservation for Mr . Alex Brent .
I am so busy today .
Can I help you ?
I ' m not sure . Perhaps you could do the shopping .
I ' ll be glad to help .
Or maybe make the beds .
All you have to do is to ask for help .
Thanks . That ' s terrific !
Your tie is handsome .
But Sue is indeed beaut . Men can hardly resist such a knock-out .
Birds of feather flock together . You must be one of these men .
I know little of her . I only think she ' s pretty and intelligent . Of course , she ' s diligent , too .
Have you found another job yet , Sally ?
No , I haven't , but I've seen several interesting advertisements in the paper .
What kind of job are you looking for ?
Either something in the hotel business or something to do with travel .
You haven't had any experience in either of those fields .
I'd like to apply for a personal loan .
How much would you like to borrow ?
A thousand dollars .
Let me check with our credit manager . ( later ) Our record shows that your credit rating is quite high . I don't think you'll have any problems .
What's the current interest rate ?
I hear little Bob has recovered .
That's a great relief . I was worried about him .
The operation was very successful .
Who is Cindy ' s husband ?
Cindy ' s husband is Ron .
How many children do Cindy and Ron have ?
They have two children-one son and one daughter-as well as one daughter-in-law and one son-in-law .
Do they have any grandchildren ?
Yes , they have three grandchildren-one girl and two boys .
Does their daughter get along well with her in-laws ?
Yes , she gets along with them quite well .
Do they have a large family ?
You stay beside me ; I'll fry the meat in the oil first .
Daddy , what seasonings are you going to cook the meat with ?
Er , I am gonna go with salt and sauce !
What ? Are you kidding ?
Is there anything wrong ?
May I take your order ?
I'd like to see the menu , please .
Oh , I'm so sorry . I thought you had one . Here you are .
Don't you have any Chinese food ?
I think we should home school our children when we decide to have kids .
What ? Why ?
Well , our public schools here are not very good and private school are just too expensive . I have been reading up on home schooling and it has a lot of advantages .
Like what ? I think that by doing something like that we would be isolating our children from social interaction .
Well , first of all , I would be able to teach them everything they learn in school in a more relaxed and fun way . I also think that having a one-on-one class is much better since you can focus more on his or her strengths or weaknesses .
I think neither your parents or mine would agree to such an idea .
I will bring it up over Sunday brunch .
What did you do last vacation ?
I learned to drive and I got a driving license .
What will you do this vacation ?
Do you know much about computers ?
Not a great deal .
I've just been reading an article about them . They'll be used for all sorts of things now .
For accounting system and things like that , you mean ?
Yes , but they are used for other things , too . Do you remember when we went to buy a ticket for the flight to Paris .
Yes ?
The man asked where we want to go , then he type out the information on the form and waited for a reply . A few moment later , he gave us two tickets .
Of course , his machine must have been connected to a computer .
Good afternoon , sir . Can I help you ?
I'd like a beef-burger , a French fries and a milk shake , please .
What flavor would you prefer , sir ?
I'm not quite sure . What do you have ?
We have strawberry , chocolate , vanilla and banana .
Very well , I'll try the banana flavor .
Anything else , sir ?
Good morning , Mr . Smith .
Good morning , Jamie . What time is it now ?
It is 9 o'clock now .
I see . What is today's schedule ?
You have two meetings today . One is at 10 am , and the other is at 2 pm . After the meeting , you will have dinner with Mr . Brown at the Chinese restaurant in Sister Hotel .
OK . Can you prepare things for the meeting in the meeting room ? Make enough copies of the handouts .
No problem . Do you need the OHP ?
Yes . I am going to show them some slides in the meeting . Can you call Mr . Brown to remind him of the dinner this evening ?
OK . Do you want to ask the receptionist to wait for our customers at the receptionist counter before the meeting ?
Welcome to my birthday party , I am so happy you can come .
Thanks for inviting me . Here is the gift for you . Happy birthday , Francis ! Many more happy and healthy years for you !
Thank you , shall I open it now ?
Yes , please do .
Wow , a remote car model and my favorite brand . I really like it . That is so nice of you .
Yeah , I was really struggling whether I should give you this nice little car . It was the last one they had and I really like it so much myself .
Steven , can you give us a summary about your work ? What do you get from your work ?
I have accumulated a wealth of practical experience in work as a chief advertisement designer . Moreover , I realized teamwork is the key to success .
Why do you think so ?
I think building team spirit among the coworkers is very important . I believe we can accomplish a miracle if we stick together .
Very good . Anything else ?
My advantage is that I have strong sense of responsibility . But I lack patience .
I must praise you for your modesty and diligence . What's your plan next ?
I will listen and learn more when I start my new job . I plan to become more professional in my field .
I've got to commend you ; you really did a good job .
How old is Keith ?
He ' s 21 . how old is James ?
He ' s a year older than Keith , but he looks younger .
How ' s your father ?
He ' s fine . He retired last week . It ' s turning going in his life . Now he can relax and enjoy his retirement .
He can spend more time with his grandchildren .
Oh , I don ' t think he wants to . He wants to travel to several different countries around the world .
So , he wants to have a more active retirement . Good idea !
How do you want to spend your old age ?
The mosquitos are biting me !
Me , too , I can ' t stop scratching . They are everywhere ! Sneaky little jerks .
Do you have any bug spray ?
No , I forgot to buy some .
Then we ' ll have to put up with it .
We can cover ourselves with beer ! That way if they bite us , they ' ll get drunk and fall asleep .
That ' s without a doubt , the best idea you ' Ve had ! Let ' s do it !
I love Chinese food .
What's your favorite dish or dishes ?
Well , I always order fried spring rolls when I go to Chinatown .
But a Chinese person would never order that .
Really ? But they're delicious !
Alex , you don't know what to order . Let's go to a Chinese restaurant together next time .
That sounds great .
First you add the washing powder then you add the clothes .
I take it you've done this before ?
Yes , for the last 20 years .
We would like you to stop by again so we can show you some more problems that have come up with our apartment .
I am kind of busy right now , but maybe later next week I could stop by .
We sent you an e-mail the first week we moved in ; it listed the problems we found .
What problems did you find ?
The roof leaks when it rains , there is mold on the bedroom walls , and the dishwasher doesn ' t work .
I don ' t really consider any of that to be my responsibility . You can fix those things yourself .
Maintaining basic health and safety standards is your responsibility .
I am maintaining the building . You are way too picky !
Unfortunately , you won ' t be getting a rent check unless these problems are fixed by Friday .
That's right . And I'm going to be Vice President of Marketing .
Way to go , Mary . A lot has happened during the last few months , hasn't it ?
You can say that again !
What's up with Vince and Elvin ?
They work for Zina now .
And they're happy with that ?
We are going to the concert this evening . Will you join us ?
I'm very sorry I can't .
Why not ?
Bobby ! Come here , look what I got you !
What is that ?
A chess board ! Daddy is going to teach you how to play !
Cool !
Ok , each player gets 16 pieces . You can be the white ones and I ' ll play with the black pieces . Now in the front , you set up the pawns . Those are the least valuable pieces and can only move one space forward . When you are about to capture another piece , it can move one space diagonally .
What about all these other pieces ?
See this one that looks like a tower ? It ' s called the rook . The one with the tall hat is called the bishop . See this little horsey ? This is called the knight , it ' s a very important piece so it ' s best to not let your opponent capture it .
And these two ? They are husband and wife ?
That ' s right ! That ' s the queen and that ' s the king . If the other player captures your king , he will say Check Mate and the game is over ! Doesn ' t this sound fun ?
I've been looking forward to the new semester .
I hope we can make great progress in this new semester .
Hope so .
I hear we'll have a new English teacher this semester .
Really ? I hope we will do much better under her guidance .
Do you often buy magazines ?
I buy a computer magazine every month . It keeps me up-to date with all the latest developments .
Why don ' t you find the information on the internet instead ?
Sometimes it takes too long to find the exact information you are looking for . Besides , I like to read a magazine in a coffee bar sometimes .
Do you have an online edition of that magazine ?
Yes , they do . But you can only access all the articles if you have a subscription .
Do you have a subscription ?
Yes , I do . The magazine arrives by post at the beginning of each month . Do you every buy magazines ?
Hello , JC Consulting PLC . Chris Edwards speaking .
Mr Edwards , this is Kristy calling from IBA .
Hi Kristy ! What's going on ?
Do you remember coming in to do the L / C amendment last week ?
Yes , I certainly do .
The negotiating bank has just been in touch ...
Oh , dear ! There isn't a problem , is there ?
No , Mr Edwards , not at all . We are contacting you to let you know that everything has gone smoothly and the amendment has been accepted .
Okay , now I ' d like to find out more about your last job . I see you spent almost four years at the London Weekly , is that right ?
Yes , that ' s right . To be honest , the first year was quite tough for me . I was really just treated more like an intern . I didn ' t have many responsibilities and I found it quite frustrating .
So , what changed ?
Well slowly but surely I proved myself , and the new editor liked me so he promoted me to features writer .
Wow , a real step up !
Yes , I was responsible for restaurant and food reviews mostly . I spent restaurant years in that position , but to be honest it wasn ' t an area of journalism I wanted to stay in long-term .
I see , so why did you decide to leave finally ?
Jenny , I was wondering ... if you .. eh are you busy this Friday ?
Yes , Friday I have a class , right after work .
Oh , what about Saturday ? Are you free then ?
Saturday my parents are coming to town . What ' s up ?
What about tonight ? Do you have plans tonight ?
No , do you want to go and do something ?
Yes , yes , I want to take you to dinner .
Hello . Manchester 6739792 .
Hello . Is that Nicholas ?
Nicholas ? Nicholas Nickleby ? No . He doesn't live here any more . He's moved to Morecambe .
Never ! Do you know his new number ?
Yes . I've got it somewhere . Let me see . Where did I put it ? Ah - I remember , it's on the memo . Here it is . Do you have a pen to write it down ?
Yes , I do . Go on .
His number's 4945939 .
What courses are you going to take next year ?
Well , I am certainly going to take chemistry and physics , but I haven't decided on the other subjects yet . I'd like to take English .
Why are you going to take english with chemistry and physics ?
Because I want to study english literature . but I think chemistry is better for getting a job .
Of course it depends on what you are going to do when you leave college . Have you beside what you are going to do when you graduated ?
Mr . Emory , I ' d like to take this afternoon off if it's all right with you .
But Steven , you've called in sick 3 times during the last three weeks .
I know , Mr . Emory . I'm sorry . But I really need to see the doctor this afternoon . I feel dizzy and I can't concentrate on my work .
All right , then . But don't forget to bring a doctors note tomorrow .
Hey , Jim , it ' s time to wake up and get out of bed .
Do I have to get up now ?
You ' d better get up , or you ' ll be late .
What are you talking about ? My alarm hasn ' t even gone off yet .
Yes , it did . It went off 30 minutes ago . You slept right through it . You ' re like a dead person while you sleep .
I must have slept right through it .
Rise and shine ! Sleepyhead !
Just let me sleep 5 more minutes .
The early bird gets the worm .
I know . I know . But I don ' t want any worms .
This will be your office here .
Really ? Wow , it is great .
We try to get everyone in the upper management team a nice office .
I suppose so . It's great .
I'm glad you like it .
Yes , is there a coffee machine around here ?
Yes , we have a coffee machine and some other beverages in the break room .
Where is the break room ?
It's just down the hall , the fourth door on your right .
Got it .
You can always call me if you need anything and I will get it for you .
Yes , sir . What'll it be for you ?
Two hamburgers and French fries .
Is there anything else ?
Give me two cokes also , please .
Is this to go or to eat here ?
We'll eat here .
Here you are . That's eight fifty .
And can I have some ketchup , please ?
Can you tell me what bus to catch from Altadena to downtown LA ?
You can catch the 486 .
That bus goes all the way to LA ?
I believe so .
Is the bus ride long ?
It only takes 45 minutes to an hour .
That's all ?
It's a pretty short trip .
Is there always a lot of people on that bus ?
It only gets crowded once it gets to LA .
Oh okay , thank you .
Kim ! I'm here ! I brought all my old maternity clothes plus Dave and Alice's baby clothes !
It's a little early for those , isn't it ? I still have eight months to go ...
Believe me , the time will fly by ! Before you know it , you'll be changing diapers ! You have to start preparing !
I thought we could turn the upstairs study into a baby room . What do you think about lavender ?
The client you're meeting tomorrow likes to ask a lot of questions , so you have to be well prepared .
Tony looks very handsome in the suit .
He prefers suits to jackets .
Judge from his look , he's a very serious person .
Guess what ! I know something you don't know !
What's that ?
How many planets are there in the solar system ?
That's easy . Everyone knows that there are nice .
Not anymore ! Can you believe it ? They've decided that Pluto is not a planet anymore !
Nice try . I wasn't born yesterday , you know .
I'm dead serious . They've decided that it's too small to be a planet , but actually they haven't yet agreed on how big something has to be in order to be a planet anymore .
That sounds crazy . They can't just change their mind about things like that .
Yes , they can . If you remember correctly , people used to believe that the world was flat .
I suppose you're right . They also used to think that they were so important that the sun revolved around them , not the other way around .
We actually know relatively little about space and the cosmos .
Do you think that we'll one day be able to travel to another planet for a vacation ?
I suppose we could actually live on a planet outside of the milky way .
Do you think we'll ever get to meet an alien from outer space ?
I hope not . I think they would be a threat to those of us that lived on Earth .
You're so old-fashioned . That's what people used to think about people from another country !
John got a heart attack last night .
Oh really ? Is he all right ?
Not so good , though his nephew took him to hospital in time .
What a beautiful view , my sweetheart !
It sure is . The Grand Canyon is truly masterpiece . No man could ever make anything like this .
What is that below ?
It is the Colorado River . You will go down the river in a boat if you wish .
No , thank you . It looks a bit too dangerous for me .
There is a beautiful state park here . I can see why so many people come out here to camp .
Yes , there is this beautiful view . you may go fishing , camping and also enjoy this beautiful clean air .
It definitely is a nice change from the polluted and crowded city .
Excuse me , where is the nearest gas station ?
Go along this street to the traffic lights .
To the traffic lights ?
That's right , and turn left at the lights .
Left at the lights ?
And then right at the bridge .
Right at the bridge ?
Hello , Ellen .
Hello , Helen , have you heard the news ? There ' s been a horrible accident .
Oh , no ! What happened ?
Hilda Harris husband , Henry had an accident on his way home from work .
How awful ! Was he hurt ?
Yes . He was taken to the hospital in an ambulance .
How did it happen ?
His car was hit by an express train . It happened at the crossing just behind his house .
How horrible !
He ' s having an operation in the hospital now . Poor Hilda ! You can imagine how unhappy she is .
I hope he ' ll be all right .
When the interview finally comes to an end , the interviewee will probably breathe a sigh of relief .
Still , you should not let down your guard . Some details should be paid attention to .
At this moment you can thank the interviewer again for the opportunity of the interview .
You can also ask the interviewer about your performance today .
Don't forget to ask when you can receive a reply .
And it's best to ask about the second interview if necessary .
You should state politely that you will wait for the results patiently .
You can ask questions about the position you are applying for .
In this case , you should remember to give thanks for the reply you get .
Of course .
Just say goodbye to the interviewer before you leave .
Who's in charge of the construction project ?
We've taken on a civil engineer on a nine-month temporary contract . He'll oversee the whole project . In fact we're having a project meeting at 3 p . m this afternoon allocate responsibilities and finalise the time schedule . Why don't you join us ?
Are you going to vote ?
Yes , are you ?
Yeah , but what day are the elections ?
You don ' t know what day the elections are ?
That ' s why I ' m asking you .
They ' re this coming Tuesday .
Really ?
Yes , I ' m serious .
Good thing you told me .
I can ' t believe you didn ' t know when the elections were .
It slipped my mind .
What are your strengths and weaknesses ?
As I said , I am diligent and industrious . On the other hand , I am too hard-working and I put myself under much pressure to make things perfect .
What is your problem in working ?
Happy Birthday , Mary !
Thank you .
Here is a gift for you . I hope you like it .
What a lovely dog ! How did you know I love this ?
I had my own ways of finding out . It's a secret . You look so beautiful today . Your new shirt goes well with your skirt .
Maybe you don't believe it , but it was made by my grandmother .
Really ? It looks so nice .
Thank you . Please have a cup of tea .
All right .
How about some fish ?
No , thanks . I've had enough . Now , Mary , before you blow out the birthday candles , you have to make a wish . After that , you may cut the cake .
OK , let me make a wish ... Do you want a big piece of cake ?
No , just a small one . Next let's sing ' Happy Birthday ' to Mary .
Hello , is it necessary to do warm-up exercise ? I can't wait to dive into the water .
I'm sorry . Every customer coming here must do the warm-up exercise before getting down to swimming . That's out regulation .
Yeah , I see . You are just doing your job . But I wanna know what the advantages it has .
OK , lovely boy . Try to be patient . Do you know the danger of swimming without warm-up ?
As far as I know , people will be weak if they swim too long .
That's right . But the most dangerous thing is that their legs may spasm out of control when swimming .
Is it very dangerous ? I'm a little scared . Do you offer the lifebuoy for us ?
Yes , besides that , we also provide our customers with goggles , swimming suit and something like that .
Do you have the workers to save me if anything should happen ?
I can ' t decide what to do today .
Well . Let ' s go swimming .
Don ' t you think it ' s a bit cold for that ?
I ' m having a problem .
What ' s the problem ?
A pipe burst in my wall .
Is the pipe causing any water damage ?
The water is causing mildew .
I can come fix the pipe sometime tomorrow .
Can I just call someone myself to fix it ?
I don ' t think that would be a good idea .
You won ' t do it until tomorrow .
I guess you have a point .
So , I can call someone to fix it ?
So how long have you know Jack ?
We go way back . We ' Ve known each other since we were toddlers .
Really ? You guys must be really tight .
Yeah , We're buddy-buddy still .
He seems sincere , and trustworthy .
Well , he is , but he can be conniving at times .
What do you mean ?
Well , I know that he would never stab me in the back . But I've seen him double cross other people .
Oh , my ! Really ? I never thought he would be like that .
Don't get me wrong , I'm not saying he's like that all the time .
So , can I trust him or what ?
Well , I think you should decide for yourself .
But I need someone that I can count on for this job .
Okay , Okay . You can trust him . I was just trying to give you a hard time .
Come on you're confusing me . Give it to me straight .
Steve , when are you going back to America ?
Next week .
Is the Chinese team taking the lead ?
No , it's the Japanese team .
Japanese teams always play a dark horse .
How do you usually get to school ?
I usually ride my bike . Which form of transport do you prefer to use ?
I feel that I can see more when I pedal a bicycle , but when I feel lazy , I drive my car .
I think we should discourage people from using their private cars . They produce too much pollution !
I agree , but I would find it difficult to stop using my car . It's just so convenient .
Cars might be convenient , but they're so bad for the environment .
Do you have a car ?
No . I used to have one though . Once I started using my bicycle to get around , I found that I didn't really need it .
Maybe if I sold my car now , I wouldn't be so tempted to use it .
You could try . It would save you a lot of money .
That's true . Every month , I spend hundreds of dollars on gas , insurance , and repairs .
If you got to class by riding a bicycle every day instead of driving , you will get lots of exercise , too !
I could stand to lose a few pounds . Having a car has made me lazy . I never end up walking anywhere !
Let's go to a car dealership . I'll help you try to sell your car for a good price .
Good morning , Madam . How can I be of service ?
I'd like to pay this cash into my account please . I usually do it at the machine , but the queue is very long today .
Yes , I'm sorry about that . One of our Atms is down and we are waiting for it to be repaired , but it should be up and running again very soon .
I see . Here's my Bank Book .
You need to fill out the deposit slip as well . Here you go , Madam .
Excuse me , I wonder if you could help me ?
Of course , what can I do for you ?
Well , I hate to have to say this , but I'm not happy with my room .
Oh , what exactly is problem ?
Well , the traffic is very loud . I got no sleep last night .
What are you going to have for breakfast ?
I just have some cereal each morning .
You're supposed to always have a hearty breakfast .
I don't always have time to make breakfast .
It's easy to make a quick breakfast .
What do you have for breakfast ?
When I need to make a quick breakfast , I just make some oatmeal , toast , and OJ .
That's a good idea .
It's not time consuming at all .
It doesn't take much time to make ?
Would you like me to make something ?
Hi , Mr . Smith . I ' m Dr . Hawkins . Why are you here today ?
I thought it would be a good idea to get a check-up .
Yes , well you haven ' t had one for ... five years . You should have one every year .
I know . I figure as long as there ' s nothing wrong , why go see the doctor ?
Well , the best way to avoid serious illnesses is to find out about them early . So , try to come at least once a year for your own good .
O . K .
Let me see here . Your eyes and ears look fine . Take a deep breath , please . Do you smoke , Mr . Smith ?
Yes .
Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer and heart disease , you know . You really should quit .
I ' Ve tried a hundred times , but I just can ' t seem to kick the habit .
Well , we have classes and some medications that might help . I ' ll give you more information before you leave .
How were things in the Tokyo branch when you were there ?
Good ! They have expanded and are doing better than they were last quarter . It's nice to see some improvement for a change .
Do you see the trend continuing over the next few months ?
Yes , especially with so many of our executives going back and forth from here to Japan . The only problem is , they may have trouble when they go to open up business here .
Why would you say that ?
They aren't too familiar with doing business outside of Japan . There are a lot of cultural differences to account for .
I'll say ! Sometimes they just do things really differently . But one thing I can say , they are really hospitable .
Have you ever been to Japan ?
I would like to register for a class today .
No problem , what class would you like to take ?
I would very much enjoy taking a Psychology class . Because I'm crazy .
There are two classes that are still open .
Which days are these classes on ?
The first class is a Tuesday and Thursday class from two to three .
What about the other class ?
The other class is on Monday and Wednesday from 10 am - 12 .
Are you sure there are no more open classes ?
I'm positive .
Sign me up for Monday and Wednesday .
Is there anything I can do for you ?
I want a chemise .
You have really good taste . It's the best seller right now .
Could I try it on ?
Sure .
Mary and I decided to ring the curtain down on our love affair .
What ? You have been in love for six years , haven ' t you ?
Don ' t make a fuss . Many people divorce after having living together for many years .
Excuse me , could you tell me where you have got that music book ?
Certainly . Let me see . Oh , it's on that self .
It's too high . I can't reach it . Could you help me ?
Of course . Here you are .
How about going swimming ?
OK . Where should we go ?
Why don't we go down to the pool ? It's not too far from here .
Excuse me . Do you think I can get there in time to catch the 11:30 train ?
Well , let me see . Now it's 11:00 sharp . It's a long way to go . If I take the shortest route , we may come across a traffic jam . If I take a less heavy route , it will save us 10 or more minutes , but you'll have to pay more . Which do you prefer ?
Are you sure that I can get there in time if we take the less heavy route ?
Generally speaking , we can if we go at this speed and nothing unexpected happens .
How much more do I have to pay ?
Compared to the shortest route , you may pay around 5 Euro more .
That's acceptable . No one wants to miss a train .
OK ... Here we are . We'll turn left at this cross . To go straight ahead is the shortest route .
What's that book you have under your arm ?
It's the best seller everyone's been talking about for the last six months .
How in the world did you get a copy ? I've put a hold on it at the public library for weeks and I'm still waiting my turn .
I checked it out of the rental library . It only costs five cents a day .
Is it really worth paying for ?
I can't tell yet . I haven't got beyond the first chapter .
You had better get a grab instead of getting upset about little things .
I know . But my life seems super stressful . I really don ' t know how to get a better grab on things .
Tom , Christmas Day is coming . Merry Christmas to you .
Walter , did you email that document to Mr . Lin yesterday ?
Yes , I did , Ms . Chen .
That's strange . I have Mr . Lin on the phone right now , and he says that he didn't receive any email from us yesterday . Are you sure you sent it ?
So , Jack , do you believe in ghosts ?
No , not really . Why do you ask ?
Because I want to tell you about the time that I saw a ghost .
You saw a ghost ? When ?
It was many years ago , when I was a little child . It was the middle of the night , and I went to get a drink of water from the kitchen . I walked out of my room and was at the top of the stairs , when ...
So that's where you saw the ghost ? In your house ? What did it look like ? Was it hideous ?
It was a big , green thing that looked like a person . It was in the kitchen , and it slowly moved towards the stairs ...
So what did you do ?
I hid so that it couldn't see me . Slowly it got closer and closer , until ...
Until what ? What happened ? Did you see it clearly ? Did it attack you ?
Hi . I just lost my purse when I was shopping on the street . I guess somebody stole it from me .
Sorry to hear that . Could you tell me what were in your purse ?
My mobile phone , passport and some cash .
When did you come to America ?
Just a couple of days ago .
Could you recall when and where you lost it ?
I have no idea .
OK . I have written it down . Who is your emergency contact person in America ?
That is my friend Tim who lives nearby .
The summer vacation is coming . Have you any plans ?
I haven't made up my mind . Maybe I will go to the US . What about you ?
I am going on a hiking trip . It's good exercise as well as fun .
I think so .
So why not come and join us ? Lee will come as well .
morning , Mary ? It ' s John Kramer calling . You remember you handled my tax forms for me ?
Of course , Mr . Kramer . How are things going these days ?
Better than ever ! You won ' t have to worry about " finding " extra money for me anymore ! We made nearly a quarter of million in profit last year !
I know in your resume that you have worked in your present company for 3 years , can you tell me why you want to leave your present job and join us ?
Because the job I am doing in my present company is of no challenge , but I like challenge . Your firm is a young organisation with many innovative ideas . It has been very successful in an expanding market since its establishment 10 years ago . Working for you would be exactly the sort of challenge I am looking for .
Why do you think you are qualified for this position ?
What do you think of that situation comedies showed every weekend ?
To tell you the truth , I don't think much of them .
You're becoming a real television watcher .
Brian , a company called me for an interview .
That's great ! You need to prepare for it .
How ?
Get your hair done at a good hair saloon . Tell them you are going for a job interview .
Okay .
Buy an expensive suit .
How expensive ?
The more expensive , the better .
I can ' t afford too expensive , maybe $ 50 to $ 70 ?
That'll do it . The best way is to find the dressing color code of the company .
How ?
If you know somebody at the company , ask them . If not , dark color will be fine .
Is a white blouse okay ?
Yeah , fine . And dressing shoes .
Black ?
Black is good .
White pantyhose ?
No . Dark or skin colored .
Jewelry ?
Necklace , ring , and earrings are all fine . But don ' t wear too many pieces of jewelry .
How about make up ?
Not much make up .
Perfume ?
Beauties Picture , how may I help you ?
I need to speak with David Lin .
He's out of his office .
Is there anything I can do for you ?
I'm trying to choose a gift .
Did you have anything particular in mind ?
No , but I'd like to get something typical in this region .
Well , we have some handmade products . Let me show you some .
They're quite nice . But I'm afraid they're quite a bit expensive .
About how much were you planning to spend ?
No more than one hundred yuan .
Oh , in that case . This one is OK .
Oh ! It's perfect . I think I'll take it . Would you wrap it , please ?
Are we here yet ?
Not quite yet .
How far away is it ?
It's still very far away .
How many miles to go ?
We're getting close .
Will we be there soon ?
Here we are .
Where's the hotel ?
It is in front of you .
I see that . That was a nice ride .
Do you want black or white coffee ?
White , please
Look ! there's a Folk concert tomorrow evening . Do you Want to go ?
I don't like Folk music very much .
What kind of music do you like ?
I like classical music . Do you ?
Not very much . Classical music sends me to sleep
I don't believe you .
It ' s true .
You are funny !
Do you have anything to wash ?
Yes . Here you are .
OK . They will be ready by 7:00
By the way , please have these suits pressed .
Of course , sir . We will press all the clothes when they are cleaned .
What sort of salary did you get at your previous job ?
Well , I got $ 3,000 per month .
I see . I am sure we can offer you $ 3 , 500 at the beginning . Would that be satisfactory ?
Yes , I think so . That would be more than I have wished .
Good . We also have health insurance , bonus and paid vacation . When can you begin to work ?
What about early next week ?
Good . Please come in on Monday . Working hours are from eight to four-thirty . Lunch is fifty-five minutes .
Do you need a ticket ?
Surely , I do . It's hard to come by , isn't it ?
Yes , it is .
Can you get it ?
What kind of note are you taking there . That looks like doodle to me .
It's picture association of the concept that the professor taught today .
Does that actually work for you ?
I don't really know for sure yet . I'll tell you after the test on Friday .
I like to use shorthand note taking .
I was told once that the more time you spend writing , the less you are paying attention and so you miss stuff .
Hmm . I never thought about it that way .
I've heard of ground-level ozone but can you explain what it is exactly ?
Yes , it's one of the main air pollutants . Factories don't emit it directly into the air . It's actually formed when nitrogen oxides and VOC emissions come into contact with heat and sunlight .
Sorry ? What does VOC stand for ?
Oh , Vous are ' volatile organic compounds ' . That's a technical term for solvents or other chemicals found in things like paint .
So , what damage does ozone do to the environment ?
My wife is really a chatter box . It ' s so boring .
I have an idea .
What is it ?
Which season do you like best ?
Autumn . Autumn is the best season in Beijing .
Have you bought another handset
No , it is the original one .
This is silver gray , while I remember your handset was black .
I have changed a case for it .
Can a handset case be changed ?
Of course . That's why I bought this type . I can change its case frequently , so it is novel to use it .
How many cases are accessible ?
There are two more , one is orange and the other is pink . I have bought them all .
May I help you ?
No , thank you . I'm just looking . Maybe later I might need your help .
I hope you will ! Take your time . We have a lot more upstairs .
In China at least , coffee is often associated with an exotic , well-to-do bourgeois lifestyle . Coffee is often considered a hobby of the well-educated , middle-class people .
Maybe that's why some young chaps often spend a whole afternoon in a coffee bar , surfing the net or just typewriting something with laptop . While they are savoring a coffee at a leisured pace , they are actually showing off !
Yes . Behind a lifestyle , there is a culture . Young people easily become blind worshippers of a Westernized life . While they may not really like coffee , they think it desirable and enviable to be lavish with money in those high-consumption places .
Then what about tea ? We need to bear in mind in the first place that tea , rather than coffee , has been the most popular drink for the Chinese people .
Well . Tea represents another facet of popular culture . While a coffee bar is usually quiet and resonates with soft , elegant music , a teahouse is often a noisy , crowded , public space . People visit teahouses to associate with others , playing chess , chatting , or simply listening to operas .
What a pity that the traditional teahouses , as depicted by Lao She , keep fading away so quickly in this metropolis . It is not easy to find an old-fashioned teahouse that suits the ordinary people's spending power either . Teahouses of today all feature a cozy , comfortable environment , and high-quality services , but can easily cost you a good deal -- just like a coffee bar .
Good day , what can I do for you ?
Could you fill me in on the details for buying foreign currency ?
Of course . Where are you planning to travel to ?
Kula Lumpur , in Malaysia .
That's fine . If you are travelling outside of Mainland China , Hong Kong and Macao we need to follow the SAFE rules . This means that you can exchange 2,000 USD or equivalent .
Hey , if you're not busy this weekend , would you like to go see a movie ?
Sounds good . What should we see ?
How about that European movie ?
You mean the one starring John Travolta ?
Yeah , that's the one I've heard the special effects and the plot are outstanding .
Sounds like an interesting film . Let's meet at five o'clock on Saturday .
Where is some fresh produce that's on sale ?
Well , I think you'll like the mangoes .
I've never had a mango .
It's a fruit . It has a big stone in it .
Can you eat the stone ?
No . You would break all your teeth on it .
How much are these mangoes ?
The sale price today is $ 1 each .
Can you describe their taste ?
They usually taste sweet , but they remind me of an orange .
How can I tell if they're ripe ?
Don't cut into them until you can feel that they're soft on the outside .
What country produces them ?
Is my car ready yet ?
I don't know , sir . What's the number of your car ?
It's LF 312 G .
When did you bring it to us ?
I bought it here three days ago .
Ah yes , I remember now .
Have your mechanics finished yet ?
No , they're still working on it . Let's go into the garage and have a look at it . Isn ' t that your car ?
Well , it was my car .
Didn't you have a crash ?
That's right . I drove it into a lamp post . Can your mechanics repair it ?
Oh my God ! I can't find my first period American literature class .
You look lost . Can I help you ?
Aren't you the guy who sat in front of me in our homeroom ?
Yeah . I'm Brad .
I'm Mary . I can't find my American literature class .
What room is it ?
It's 112 .
It's on the first floor by the nurse's office .
I'm thirsty . Pull over to that store , I'll buy some drinks .
I'm afraid I can't . Parking is not allowed here .
Oh , that's too bad , Where can you park around here ?
There is a square in front of us . We can park the car there .
Is a shop there ?
How do you use an ATM card , billy ?
It's easy grandpa . Insert you card into the machine here . Then wait a moment . Ok . Now you enter your PIN . It should have four numbers .
Oh yes . I've got it written down here . Just a minute .
You really shouldn ' t write it down . You should memorize it . You can change it to a more convenient number if you like .
Ok , I've entered my PIN . There are several options on the screen . I guess I just choose which service I want , don't I ?
Yes . Choose the service you need to use . If you choose to withdraw money , the machine will ask you how much you want .
I can just enter the amount using the keys , right ?
That's right . Give the machine a moment to process you request . Then take your money .
At the Beijing Olympics , all four table tennis events were all-Chinese finals . A clean sweep again !
Yes . All international ping-pong tournaments have become a demonstration of Chinese supremacy in the sport .
Do you know any secrets to China's success ?
In the first place , I think the whole nation is just fond of the game . It is well grounded with the mass . With huge numbers of people playing ping-pong , we can always spot a handful of potential world champions .
So , the national ping-pong team must be a highly competitive membership .
Sure . There is a careful mechanism for selecting players from provincial teams , and those lucky dogs have to observe strict rules .
For example ?
They are subject to hard training . And you know what , for a player on the national team , personal affairs are supposed to take a back seat to training and competitions . They are not even allowed to talk relationships with each other .
Oh , dear ! It's an encroachment on individual rights !
Excuse me . Could you tell me where the post office is ?
Sure . If you get on this road and turn left at the second intersection , you'll see it on your right-hand side .
Thank you so much for your assistance !
Would you mind if I ask the insurance policy of our company ?
No , I don't . Please .
I wonder whether I can enjoy the life insurance and health insurance .
Is that your phone ?
Yes , it's my new business phone . Do you like it ?
It's very impressive . Can you use the Internet on your phone ?
Yes , it's got wireless Internet access .
That's really convenient . Does it have the Bluetooth ?
Yes , but I don't really use it often . Have you ever used it ?
No , but I think it'd be really great for people like you who are always on the go .
Excuse me , Miss . I feel like vomiting . Can I bother you for some ice water , please ?
Sure , sir . But can I suggest a cup of warm water instead , I think it may help settle your stomach down .
Fine , please .
You can find an airsick bag in the seat pocket in front of you .
Thank you very much for your kindness .
Ladies and gentlemen , now we are in the National Forest Park .
What's that ?
The stone is a prehistoric log . It was turned to stone millions of years ago .
Really ? It's unbelievable .
But it's the truth .
Do you have Ginkgo trees here ?
We don't have them here , I'm afraid . Ginkgo trees grow well only in cold weather .
What are these trees opposite to the pine trees ?
They are poplar trees . They are widely used in our lives .
Okay , here's the lease . Read it over before you sign it . As you can see , the deposit is $ 300 .
Oh , okay . I can get it back when I move out , right ?
Yes , assuming there's been no damage to the apartment . Before you move in , you can make a list of any marks , scratches , and so forth that are already there .
All right . Here's the lease and the check for the deposit .
I'm reading an interesting report on Mars .
Oh , what does it say ? Does it say water could still exist under the surface of Mars ?
Absolutely ! It says there is water on Mars buried beneath the surface . It's just a matter of how deep it is .
Then could the soil on Mars somehow be fertile enough to Groh simple plants ?
The soil would need quite a bit of fertilizer to grow anything . And it would need to be protected from the UV radiation .
Actually , we are doing a project in school that involves landing a ship and staying on Mars for an extended period of time . Does NASA have any type of portable habitats that could be used to stay on the planet ?
I'm not sure NASA has built any portable habitats for extended stays on Mars , but they have looked at various designs .
One of the most exciting things about Mars is that there could have bean life on it . What are your personal opinions on the life on Mars theory ?
Well , I'm not really an expert in this area , but my understanding is that anything is possible . It's just that it is so hard to determine what went on 4 . 5 billion years ago .
But maybe there is a chance of gradually improving the surface and atmosphere of Mars so it may be inhabitable by humans .
I'm skeptical . Mars is made of rocks containing silicon , iron , and various minerals . It also has an atmosphere of carbon dioxide . It is so different from what we have on earth , you know .
I'd still like to hope that some day we could set up a human colony there .
Look over there . That is what I am looking for . Let's go !
I want to see you play . Be quick !
I am not certain , but I think I might ask to be considered for the new job .
Why are you considering trying for it ?
I think that I might like it , but I am still thinking about it .
What is it about this job that appeals to you ?
I think that I would enjoy the position but there isn't a lot of creativity involved .
Yes , you could be right . There is a lot to consider .
I am also wondering about the pay .
Would a slight decrease in pay be worth it for a new opportunity for growth ?
I am thinking that might be the case .
Can I help you ?
I'd like to buy a new mobile phone please .
Ok , would you like a phone with camera and MP3 player ?
Who is on duty ?
I am , sir .
Your duty is to keep a check on those prisoners from now on .
Our housing problem is a highly complicated issue .
It is true . I think we should change some policies .
Right . Like our LPF program . The mortgage size is linked with the amount of savings households have accumulated on their LPF accounts .
Indeed , it's unfair . Households with higher salaries receive larger LPF contributions and thus qualify for larger loans . Lower-income households , on the other hand , can only get smaller loans , or perhaps nothing if they could not afford to purchase any housing .
That sounds pretty good . But isn't downloading music illegal ?
Not if you pay for it . For example , if you download from iTunes and pay with your credit card , it's legal .
OK , I'm going to get iTunes and download some Vanilla Ice songs .
Would you like to see our new shirts ?
Sorry , I'm not really that interested in those things .
They are very nice , you know .
Really ?
And not expensive either .
Oh . I don't care about that .
Everybody's buying them .
Are they ?
Yes , they are very fashionable , you see .
What are you reading ?
It ' s an article about language . It talks about the idea of having a single global language .
It seems that English already is the main global language . Does the article suggest that there should be an artificial language like Esperanto as the world language .
Actually , it suggest English . The main argument is that English is already being studied as a second language in most countries-china , India , mexico , Nigeria , Pakistan , and japan . So beginning again with a language like Esperanto would be wasteful . The second argument is that English is used in modern technology far more that any other language . Most emails are sent in English and the vast majority of website use English .
Does the article say anything about other language ? How will they survive in an English-speaking world ?
The article points out that many languages have been lost and will be lost , but others will continue to be used for generation , even if English continues to be the dominant language .
Right . All the people who speak Chinese . Hindi , French and Spanish aren ' t suddenly going to stop using those languages .
Exactly . The article suggests that those languages will be used , but that they will only rarely be used in international communication between non-native speakers .
He has worked five years in that bank .
He must be an experienced accountant .
You said it . Let ' s ask him to work in our bank .
I hated the hand-me-downs to wear when I was a kid .
That ' s understandable . Every kid likes new clothes .
Can I help you , sir ?
Yes , I'd like to look at some suits .
Oh , this way please . What size do you wear ?
Size 41 . I want something in dark flannel .
How about this one ?
It feels all right . But if it were a darker color , I'd like it better . This seems too light for winter . Do you think you could get me one ?
All right . I'll show you something darker . Do you like this one ?
It looks good . But can I try it on ?
Of course . Let me help you .
Thanks . It ' s comfortable . Well , how much is it , please ?
$ 280 .
I don't know how to adjust my life . Would you give me a piece of advice ?
You look a bit pale , don't you ?
Yes , I can't sleep well every night .
You should get plenty of sleep .
I drink a lot of wine .
If I were you , I wouldn't drink too much .
I often feel so tired .
You better do some exercise every morning .
I sometimes find the shadow of death in front of me .
Mr . McKenna , do you have a second ? I need to talk to you about something .
Sure , Liv , what can I do for you ?
Well , I was just wondering . . . you see , I know I ' Ve used up all my vacation days this year , but my sister is getting married , and the wedding is overseas , and , well . . .
You wanna take some time off , is that right ?
Well , sir , I was just hoping that I might be able to take some unpaid leave this year .
What dates are you planning on taking off ? I ' ll need at least two months notice , so that I can plan for your absence .
I was thinking of taking off from September first until the thirtieth . Would you be okay with that ?
Well , tell me something of yourself .
What would you like to know , Mr . Green ?
What working experience have you got ?
In 2004 , I got a job in the sales department of a trading company near Guangzhou . I started a sales representative . A year later , I was promoted to the position of sales manager . I had that job ever since , which is just over a year now .
Oh , good . Irene , can you tell me why you plan to quit being a sales manager to work here as my assistant ? Don't you like your present job ?
That'll be 12 dollars and 95 cents , please .
Can you break a 100 dollar bill ?
Oh , you don't have anything smaller ?
No , I'm sorry . That's all I have . Unless you take a credit card .
Did you working in a similar position before ?
Yes . I have been with ABC Insurance Company for four years , and before that , I worked with the Pacific surveyor company as claim officer .
Could you tell me the usual procedures to handle such a case ?
Yes , on the shipper's side , when the cargos arrives , all relevant documents will be forwarded to the consignee . Among other things , this party has to check carefully the content of the packing list and weight list . When cargos are found to be damaged of short landed , this party has to call for a joint survey by representatives of the shipping company and the insurance agent . Based on the survey report , they will lodge a clam for compensation .
If you act as our representative what would you do to safeguard our interest ?
I think , first of all , I would ask the consignee to produce survey report on loading , if they can't produce that I would suggest them to refer the case to their shipper . Meanwhile , bad weather could be agood excuse to refuse the responsibility .
Are you able to operate the telex ?
Yes , I used to dispatch telex to shippers and the consignee to inform them of changes of our schedule and other information .
Now can you tell me if you have a good command of both written and spoken English ?
When I was college , I passed Band Six of College English Test . All the foreign business men I've dealt with say my English is quite good .
If you are selected for the position , you must prepare to travel overseas frequently .
Come in and sit down , Jack . Now , what's the trouble ?
I've got a terrible pain in my stomach , Doctor .
I see . When did it start ?
It started yesterday . I didn't eat any supper .
Have you got a temperature ?
I think so . I feel very hot .
Let's see . Yes . You ' Ve got quite a high temperature .
I've got an awful headache , too , and my throat hurts .
Hm .. I think you ' Ve got the flu .
Is it serious ?
No , not at all , but you must stay in bed for three days and take this medicine .
How often must I take it ?
Three times a day after meals .
Good morning , Sir .
Hello . I'm here today to pay in some foreign currency . Is that possible at this counter ?
Of course , Sir . What kind of currency would you like to deposit ? And what is the amount you would like to pay in ?
10,000 Japanese yen .
OK , Sir . Would that be Fixed or Current Deposit ?
Fixed .
And how long are you depositing for ?
May , I saw a beautiful cotton down coat in the shopping mail .
Hello ! I'm sorry to bother you . This is a complimentary fruit tray . Your food will be ready soon .
Wow ! It's a fruit sculpture ! Your chef is a real artist !
Actually , uh , I made it myself ...
You did ? Wow ! Where did you learn ... ?
what's your apartment like ?
it's furnished two bedroom flat in a three-story building on campus .
what is it like living in on-campus housing ?
it's not as bad as I thought it would be . The freshmen that live nearby are really loud , especially on the weekends . But , the rent is much cheaper than private housing , so it's worth it .
did you have to pay a deposit ?
no , but we do have to pay 9 months rent in 6 months , so for the first months we pay 1/2 month's rent each month .
do you have to pay utilities on top of your monthly rent ?
no , it's all included . Besides , students don't have to pay council tax , so we're saving quite bit of money by living here .
how long is your contract for ?
that's the bad thing---the contract ends in June , so we'll have to find a new apartment soon .
have you started looking again yet ?
not yet . I'm hoping we'll be able to find something cheap once all the students leave the city for the summer .
The music has started .
How do you like this waltz ?
It's very nice .
May I ask you for a dance ?
Certainly .
You are doing the waltz wonderfully well .
So click here , then up to the top .
Er ... Hum ... Got it .
Then open that window . Yeah , that one .
Right !
And that's it . You're done .
Hello , Mr Kowalski ?
I'm here , hello .
Which city are you staying in right now ? And the name of your hotel ?
I'm in Beijing , at the Weston Hotel .
Do you have your passport with you ? Or do you by any chance know the number ?
I don't have it to hand , but I know the number . It's 16211469 9 . Can you do anything , like stop the card for example ?
Let me repeat that back to you , 16211469 9 . That's just what I've done , Mr Kowalski , I've stopped your card temporarily .
But , what do I do if I need cash ?
You can go to any branch of IBA and request the Emergency Assistance Service . Everything will be taken care of , there's no need to worry .
It's awfully hot .
Let me help you with that .
Thanks very much .
You really shouldn't be lifting this by yourself .
Now , if I look here I see that you completed a BA in English ?
Yes , that ' s right . After graduating from high school in New York I attended York University in the UK . My major was English , and my minor was business studies . I completed my BA in 2004 .
Yes , I ' m pleased to see that you also got a distinction .
Yes that ' s right . I ' Ve always enjoyed studying . My friends say I ' m a bit of a bookworm , but my father always pushed us to succeed school .
Well , it looks like his encouragement paid off Rebecca . So how about extracurricular activities at University ?
Well I ' Ve always been keen on writing , so I became the editor for the University student newspaper , which I really loved . Also I volunteered for a group called Shelter , to help the homeless in York .
What did that involve ?
Providing warm meals and shelter , especially in the winter months . I found it really fulfilling to be part of that group .
I ' m sure . Okay , now let ' s move on to your work experience , shall we ?
Are you working or are you a student ?
I'm a student .
Which school are you studying at ?
What are you calling about today ?
I scheduled a delivery for tomorrow .
Is there a problem ?
I would like to reschedule .
That shouldn't be a problem .
Can I have it delivered the day after tomorrow ?
So , you want it delivered the day after tomorrow ?
Yes , will that be possible ?
What time would you like us to deliver it ?
Is 2:30 Okay ?
Your delivery has been confirmed .
Shall we have some soup first ?
No , thank you . I don't like soup . I'd rather have some fruit juice to start with .
Ok , and what about the main course ? Which would you rather have fish or meat ?
Meat , I think .
Don't you like fish then ?
I do , but I want meat .
Shall we have some white wine then ?
Yes , but I prefer red wine with meat .
What would you like for dessert ?
Hello , thanks for calling 123 Tech Help , I ' m Todd . How can I help you ?
Hello ? Can you help me ? My computer ! Oh man ...
It ' s okay sir , calm down . What happened ?
I turned on my laptop and it broke ! I mean , the monitor went black !
Ok , sir , it sounds like you might have a virus .
I don ' t feel sick , ... let me check ... Nope ! No fever , I ' m fine .
No , your computer might have a virus , I mean , it has a bad program on it . Maybe that ' s why it crashed . I recommend that you run an antivirus program in order to safely remove any unwanted spyware or Trojans .
There's a double feature at the cinema this Saturday . Do you want to go with me ?
What are the movies that are playing ?
There's an action movie with Harrison Ford and a chick flick with Susan Abandon .
I've never seen a movie I don't like that had Harrison Ford in it .
So , is that a yes ?
Yes . What time does it start and do you want to meet me there ?
It starts at one and yea , let's meet there . It's the cinema on the corner of Lincoln and Main .
Tom ! How are you ? We missed you at the party last night . Are you OK ?
I don ' t know . I didn ' t really feel like going out . I guess I ' m feeling a little homesick .
Come on . We ' Ve been through this already ! Look , I know the adjustment was hard when you first got here , but we agreed that you were gonna try and deal with it .
I was . It ' s just that the holidays are coming up and I won ' t be able to home because I can ' t afford the airfare . I ' m just longing for some of the comforts of home , like my mom ' s cooking and being around my family .
Yeah , it can get pretty lonely over the holidays . When I first got here , I ' d get depressed and nostalgic for anything that reminded me of home . I almost let it get to me , but then I started going out , keeping myself busy and before I knew it , I was used to to it .
I see what you mean , but I ' m still bummed out .
OK . how does this sound . let ' s get you suited up and hit the dance club tonight . I hear that an awesome DJ is playing and there will be a lot of pretty single girls there !
You know , I could really go for that . You don ' t mind being my wingman for tonight ?
Not at all ! It be fun ! It will be like a boys ' night out ... well kinda ...
Are you getting overtime ?
Yes , but it's not so appetizing .
Have you thought about another job ?
Good morning . May I help you , sir ?
Yes . I want to make a remittance to New Delhi .
Do you want an international money order or a banker's draft ?
It's such a nice day outside . Let ' s take a walk into town and do some window-shopping .
You know I hate shopping more than anything else in this world .
I know . But we could get some exercise in , and we could get some errands run , too . Window-shopping won ' t cost you anything .
What kind of errands do we need to run ?
Well , we could go to the newsagent's to pick up the Sunday paper , go to the butcher's to pick up a chicken for a roast dinner , and to the chemist's to pick up your prescription from the doctor .
I'll only go if we can stop at the office-license to pick up something to drink for tonight .
Fine , we'll do that on the way home , so we don ' t have to carry it the whole time .
Sounds good . You have to promise not go into any of the stores in the mall though . I know how you like to try things on in the fitting rooms , especially if the stores have special offers .
I promise . We're only going for a walk to get some exercise and to get some things done that we haven ' t had time for .
Ok , let's go then !
Do you have any money ?
For what ?
For our errands , and maybe a little extra for something from a vendor on the street .
You said you were only going to window shop !
I agreed to not go into the mall , but I can still look at things in the market !
Hello , Is this room service ?
Yes , May I help you ?
This is the room 1425 , we asked for the room service an hour ago .
we are very sorry to cause you a lot of inconvenience .
What's the matter ?
We're rather busy right now . It will take another 15minutes
Is it really going to take that long , will you rush the order ?
I'm afraid it will take 15 minutes at most .
I ' m sure it will be wet when we arrive .
Yes . I dare say it will be .
It will be Sunday so I expected everything will be closed .
No . I don ' t think that ' s possible . Some places are sure to be open .
But the bank should be closed so we shouldn't to be able to get any money .
Mmm , you may be right .
Do you think we ' ll need our overcoats ?
No . We couldn ' t possibly .
Why not ?
It will be summer . So it will be hot .
Is that very likely in England ?
I just dropped in to say good-bye .
What time are you leaving ?
I'm going to try to leave by ten .
Take care and give my best to your parents .
Good-bye . Hope to see you soon again next year .
This is No . 1 bus , bound for Sihun .
Excuse me . I will go to Wangfujing , where should I get off ?
There are another six stops .
We are arriving at Tiananmen . Please get ready for your arrival .
Is it Wangfujing ?
No , sir . The next stop is Wangfujing .
OK .
Please get ready .
Thank you .
We are arriving at Wangfujing . Please get ready .
Is this where I get off ?
Daddy , do you mind helping me prepare the supplies for mountain climbing .
OK . I am coming .
Is it gonna to rain tomorrow ?
I have checked the weather report . It says it will be cloudy , but no rain .
Just take my umbrella in case of rain .
Daniel , don't forget to take enough water and food .
Definitely , or else , I will starve to death halfway up the mountain .
Me , too , haha .
Daddy , may I take your compass ? I feel so cool with it in my hand .
All right . Oh , I nearly forgotten , I left my sneakers at my office .
It doesn't matter . I can go with you to the supermarket to pick up a new pair .
Good morning . Welcome to Time After Time Watches .
I'd like to buy a watch .
Well , you've come to the right place . What kind of watch are you looking for ?
Well , I'm not sure . Let's see . How much is this one ?
Hmm ... This Rolex ? $ 1,000 .
Oh . I don't think I can afford that . How about this one ?
This one is $ 500 .
Don't use a hair spray . I want my hair set and dried .
Look into the mirror and see if it'll do .
That's all right . Thank you .
I have a question about my cable .
What do you need ?
I haven't been able to watch my cable for the past week .
Right now the cable isn't working .
Could you tell me when it will be back on ?
The cable should be running again in a couple of days .
In the meantime , do I still have to pay for the cable ?
We'll just give you a credit for the inconvenience .
Does that mean I won't have to pay for it ?
It'll be free until it comes back on .
Thanks , I appreciate your help .
I hear you are moving to Dalian .
Yes . I found a very good job down here .
Well , we'll certainly miss you here .
I am going to miss you , too .
Let's keep in touch .
Steven , why are you so depressed ?
I'm feeling very sad . I just read the newspaper .
What's the news ?
According to the newspaper , the town was razed by an earthquake and more than 10 thousand people died in the earthquake .
It's horrible .
Yeah , we have to do something to help the people in the stricken area .
Yes . How about donating some money ?
It's a good idea . But where can we donate money ?
Just find the answer through Internet .
Bill , I'm expecting a big increase in turnover with the coming of the Mid-Autumn Festival . But wholesales are unwilling to supply my orders unless I pay them an advance of 50 % of the full price , for my business is fairly new . I hope that you can make me an advance on loan .
Do you have stocks or a title deed of a house to pledge as security ?
No . I should be grateful if you could see your way to make an advance against my personal reputation . You may inspect my accounts . From my accounts you can see that I've promptly met all my obligations .
We do not allow any request for a loan against personal security . This is a common regulation . But we may consider it if you can provide a reliable guarantor .
Yes , I can . You know Mr . Macready , the famous car dealer here in New York . He agreed to act as my guarantor of a loan in the sum of US $ l0 , 000 until the end of this year .
Man , they take a lot of our paycheck .
Yeah , the government really takes a bit , doesn't it ?
Seriously . The only tax I don't mind them taking is social security . It's only a few dollars every paycheck .
Yeah , I don't mind it either . We ' ll both end up rich slobs and not need it , but what if we do , you know ?
Yeah . It won't be much , but at least we ' ll have a monthly check when we get old .
Yeah , my grandmother gets by on social security and the money my grandfather invested when he was alive .
Let's just hope the politicians don't figure out a way to spend it .
Are you Elvin ?
Elvin Dixon . Who are you ?
I'm Mary . I want to say I really admire the software you're designed .
Easy stuff . But thanks . And the admiration is mutual .
It is ?
You're selling invoking subscriptions like nobody's business . And we don't even have a working demo yet .
Hi , Bill . I saw you yesterday with a pretty girl .
Yes , she is my favorite girl . I've decided to go steady with her .
Are you sure she is the right girl ?
Sure . She is the ideal girl , the one I had dreamed of .
What type of girl is she ?
She is the mature , stable , feminine type . I hope one day I can marry her .
You haven't spent much time with Sophia lately . Are you speaking to each other at the moment ?
No , we're not . We've been drifting apart for a while .
But you two used to do everything together . I thought you really enjoyed each other's company .
We did , but since she started her new job , all she does is hang out with her new friends from work .
Can't you hang out with them , too ?
I could , but all they ever talk about is work , so I always end up feeling left out .
Maybe you should invite her over for dinner , so it's just the two of you .
I tried that a few weeks ago and she ended bringing a pal from work with her ! She's so busy these days that it's just impossible to hang out with her .
It can't be that bad . She was always a really good friend to you .
You're right . She would never talk about me behind my back or hold a grudge . But she just doesn't seem very interested in our friendship anymore .
She's probably just excited about her new job . You should give her some time . It would be a shame to lose such a good friend .
I've given her enough time . I'm over it now .
I still think you two should try to patch things up .
What kinds of things do you like to do ?
I've always liked to draw and paint .
I didn't know you knew how to draw and paint .
I do it every once in a while .
How long have you known how to do that ?
I first learned how to do it in high school .
Did you take some sort of art class or something ?
That was my favorite class .
You have got to be talented .
Thanks .
If only I was talented .
I'm calling to cancel a reservation I made earlier in the week .
To cancel your reservation , I need your name , phone number , and date of trip , please .
Rudy Randolph , 818-555-1234 . My reservation begins on the second Monday of April .
I see your reservation on my computer . Let me just cancel it , and you'll be all set !
Thanks . I'll call again when things get better at home .
Do you have any seat preference , madam ?
Yes , could you please put me in the non-smoking section ?
Would you like a window seat ?
Yes , if any one is available . But not over the wing .
I am sorry , there is no window seat in the non-smoking room .
Would you like to ask any questions ?
I need to know about the fees .
What kind of fees ?
I ' m asking about overdraft fees .
You have to pay a small fee every time you overdraft .
What ' s the fee ?
The fee is $ 25 every time you overdraft .
How is that a small fee ?
That fee should keep you from overdrafting .
I ' ll say .
Do you have any more questions ?
We did a survey on your job performance .
How did I do ?
Not so good . Lots of complains .
Really ? I thought I was doing well .
I heard you are going out with John ?
Yes . To be frank , I really love him to death .
You are so lucky .
Why do you say that ?
Why ? Are you kidding me ? A guy like that is hard to find . Few boys are so caring , so patient , and did I mention he is hottie ?
You really think so ?
Totally . I am saying it from the bottom of my heart ! And it's obvious that he ' s head over heels in love with you , too .
Who wants to go first ? Lily ?
Oh ... I mostly just like to listen . You're the groom . Why don't you go first ?
OK . Put on something by the Backstreet Boys !
How about As Long as You Love Me ? You can pretend you're singing it to your fiancee Brooke !
What a terrible house !
I'm sick of it , too .
The door bell doesn't work , there's no hot water , and the building is falling apart .
It's no use complaining . If we had got enough money , we couldn't put up with it , and would have moved out .
Is there anything that you are interested in ?
Yes . Is this your new product this year ?
Yes . It's a prototype of our new product . It has got more advantages than the second did .
When is the product going to be on the market ?
It will be released next month .
So soon ? It seems to be in the early stages .
We have developed new technology about it . And the new product will be a pleasure to be hold .
Get changed !
Bob , What are you thinking about ?
I'm thinking about that idea we talked about .
Do you think it'll work ?
Mr . Division , I am so sorry to have kept you waiting .
That's quite all right .
Oh dear , I forgot to bring it .
Hello , Jack . It ' s good of you to come .
The pleasure is mine . Happy birthday and many happy returns of the day !
Thank you , Jack . To be frank , I'd rather forget my birthday .
Hi , Mary . You look pale today . What's the matter with you ?
I think I've caught a cold . Now I'm aching all over .
You'd better take some medicine and have a good rest . I hope you'll be yourself pretty soon .
Thank you for coming so quickly .
No problem . What ' s wrong ?
A pipe in my apartment is leaking .
Where is the pipe ?
The pipe is in my bathroom .
Can you tell me how long the pipe has been leaking ?
The pipe has been leaking for a couple days .
You do realize that I will need to rip down your wall to get to the pipe , right ?
Yes , I ' m aware of that .
Is that all right ?
I just need the problem fixed .
Professor , I'm concerned about my grades . Do you have a minute ?
Of course , how can I help you ?
I want to know if I am doing OK .
Let's pull out your scores so far . Do you think you are doing OK ?
I am afraid that I might not be doing all that well .
I'm seeing that you are doing OK in some areas , but not so well in others .
I think I could take better notes and read a little more .
You can greatly improve your grades by always reflecting on what you can improve on .
I'm working on it !
You seem to be very hesitant about doing things .
I don't know why I cannot take a step forward .
You are meeting trouble halfway , I guess .
Many things are troubling me . I don't know whether I should come and go .
Would you mind if I make a suggestion ?
Of course not , go ahead .
Maybe you should try to quit smoking . You know it is very bad for your health .
Well , sure it is . Actually , I have been cutting down the amount since two months ago . I used to smoke a pack of cigarettes for a single day . Now I limit it to 6 cigarettes a day .
You have made a big progress . Quitting smoking is not an easy job . But it will be rewarding in the long run .
Thank you for your suggestion .
Good morning , Paul !
Hi , good morning , you are so early today .
Yes , traffic wasn't much today , so I made it to the office earlier .
I see . How long does it take you to reach the office every day ?
Well , about an hour or so .
Wow , that ' s quite a long journey . Do you drive a car ?
No . I take public transportation . It's safer .
You are right ! But I get up a little late . That gives me no other option but to travel by motorcycle .
Let ' s call it a day .
It ' s nice to go home earlier once in a while . But it ' s the evening rush .
It ' s hard to commute a long way .
Saying you want to kill yourself , you terrified me out of my wits .
I was playing a joke on you .
That ' s too much .
I have no idea what to buy for Mary for her birthday .
Me neither ! Would you like to go in and buy her a gift together ?
Yes , that would be good !
We need to think about what she might like . What are her interests ?
If I remember right , she likes music , skiing , and reading .
You know , maybe we could get her some concert tickets . Who would know her favorite groups ?
Her roommate , Malia , might know what her favorite groups are .
Yeah , Malia would be able to help us choose a concert .
Let's give Malia a call and ask her for her help right now .
Have you watched any of the talent shows on TV ?
Yes , I've watched the finale for the ' Super Girl ' . The producer is very smart to copy the program from the US , which is quite fresh and eye-catching for mainland audiences .
Yeah , and they know exactly what the audiences have in mind . Everyone desires equal opportunities and a channel to climb up the social ladder all the way to the highest in society .
That ' s why the program has attracted so many star-wanna-bes .
But it seems that these talent shows are getting less popular these days . There's no such program on this year .
Yeah , these programs are gradually losing their appeal .
No surprise . The over-the-top promotion has ruined the audiences ' appetite .
And they lack originality . Talent shows like ' Super Girl ' and ' Super Boy ' are largely clones of ' The American Idol ' .
The same is true for ' My Hero ' . Winners of the contest used to star in the TV series ' The Frog Prince ' .
Can you believe the headlines ?
What are you reading ?
I'm reading about Michael Milliken , the Bond King .
Didn't he sell worthless stocks to people or something ? He got arrested for that , didn't he ?
He got arrested all right .
If I remember , he got off with a light sentence . Something like three years in a minimum-security prison .
Yup , that's him . He made millions of dollars selling bonds to people and ended up with a pile of cash when they became useless .
I think the government fined him a small amount , and he kept the rest in his foreign bank accounts . He's still a millionaire .
That's the kind of thing in America that gets me mad . Some guy pulls off a stock scheme and makes millions while spending the bare minimum sentence in jail .
I know . And some poor guy that robs a liquor store makes $ 500 at most and ends up in jail for five to ten years .
Yup , you got it . Criminals in America do a lot better if they're white-collar thieves .
So what's Michael Milliken up to these days ?
I want to buy some running shoes . Maybe New Balance .
Why do you need running shoes ? You aren't a runner .
But I exercise at the club . And I use the stepping machine . So I need good running shoes .
That's not the same . Maybe you want to buy running-shoe-style shoes , but not real running shoes .
What's the difference ?
There isn't much difference . But there is some difference . For one thing , real running shoes are much more expensive . They have very lightweight materials . They ' re designed for serious runner
And what are running-shoe-style shoes ?
They look like running shoes . They have the same shape . And you can use them for running too . But they're not so serious . They aren't designed for serious runners . You can use them for exerce
But they aren't as light , right ?
That's right . If you want a really lightweight shoe , you should buy a high-quality running shoe .
That's what I want . For exercising at the club . I can even spend 100 dollars on them . I don't care .
But it's a waste of money . You won't really run in them ! You don't need such a shoe to use exercise machines . It's just a waste of money .
My sister has New Balance running shoes . I want shoes just like hers . I don't care if they're expensive . And they look cool too .
Well , do what you like . There are different kinds of New Balance shoes though . You don't have to buy the most expensive .
I want the best . My sister said good shoes are very important . For support . They support your feet .
Your sister is a fitness expert , huh ?
No , but she exercises more than me .
I really think you are stubborn about some things . But here . Let's look at the New Balance shoes .
Here it is . This is what my sister has .
Yes , that's it . That's their top model .
I wonder if they have my size .
Well , we can wait for the assistant to help us , or we can look through the boxes down here . What is your size ?
Here in America , it's six .
Well , here you are . Size six . Woman's . 137 dollars . Wow , what a waste of money !
Do you want to practice your driving right now ?
No problem . We can do it right now .
Are you buckled up ?
All right . Now what do I do ?
Start the car .
Which way do you want me to go ?
Take a left .
How far do you want me to go ?
I'll tell you when to stop .
Just make sure to tell me beforehand .
We're back now , so why don't you try parking ?
do you like animals ? I really like dogs .
so do i . I don ' t like cats .
why ? I think cats are ok .
I can ' t bear being near cats . They don ' t seem to like me either .
I like wild animals . I don ' t like spiders and snakes . I think spiders and snakes are disgusting .
I ' m fond of snakes . I think they ' re great . I agree with you about spiders though . I think spiders are horrible . I think it ' s because they have so many legs .
I think bears are wonderful . Pandas are fantastic . I low the people who kill them for their fur .
I agree . I ' m carry about mice . I think they ' re so cute !
I want to join in the bus tour .
Yes , sir .
Will the bus pick up the tourists from hotels ?
Of course . You don't have to come here and we will drop you off at your hotel .
Good coming ! Welcome to J P Interior Design .
Hi , I saw the sign outside says that you do all kinds of interior design .
Yes , we do . Do you have any specific needs ?
Well , I am thinking about redesigning my kitchen .
Do you prefer some specific style ?
Yes , I prefer a more contemporary design .
What kind of color tones do you like ?
Blue , green or earth tone colors . I do not like the colors that are too bright .
I see . And what kind of feeling do you want to create for your kitchen ?
I'd like it to look simple , neat and relaxing .
Fine , we will take an actual look at your kitchen before start working on it .
No problem . How about 10 ' o clock this Sunday morning ?
Okay . Would you please leave your address and phone number ?
Tell me something about your Valentine's Day .
Ok , on that day , boys usually give roses to the sweet hearts and girls give them chocolate to return .
So romantic . Young people must have lot of fun .
What are you doing tomorrow ?
I'm going to work .
What time will you be home ?
Excuse me , This bus goes down town , doesn ' t it ?
Yes , where do you want to go ?
The worker stadium .
This is the right bus .
Do you let me know where to get off ?
Certainly . Four more stops after this . I ' ll call out the stops .
Excuse me . Who is the person responsible for handling complaints here ? I would like to make a few complaints .
I am the manager here . You can complain to me . How may I help you ?
Here is the thing . I was woke up by strange noises of the telephone several times last night . Even I unplugged it , it wouldn't stop beeping . I am also not satisfied with the housekeeping service in my room . So I want to change to a cleaner and quieter room .
Would you like to go to the natural history museum with me ?
Have you ever been to it before ?
Yes , lots of time . I was quite impressed by the wide variety of exhibitions they have .
Hi . What can I get for you ?
I ' d like a half a pound of ground beef , please .
Good choice ! Our ground beef is extra lean , if you know what I mean .
Could I also have half a dozen pork chops and two pounds of boneless chicken breasts ?
No , no no no chicken breasts at the moment , but we have some nice chicken thighs .
No , that won ' t do . I ' ll take this smoked ham you have here .
Okay , is there anything else ?
Is this salami and bologna you have here ?
Yes ! It ' s very fine meat ! Made it myself ...
Sounds good . Okay , that ' s it .
Wait ! We have T-bone , rib eye , and sirloin steaks . They are very fresh ! Just came from the slaughter house ...
Mmm ... No that ' s okay , really . I think that ' s all for today .
To which gate do I need to go to catch connection flight Ll 01 to Madrid ?
Go to gate 18 . The plane is boarding now . You should hurry up .
Show me the fastest way to get there .
Instead of walking . you can take this shuttle to get you there faster .
Do you think the plane will leave without me ?
No , I'll call the attendants at the gate to tell them that you are on your way .
What's wrong with you ?
I'm trying to send the instruction book by E-mail , but I failed many , many times . And there is something wrong with the net maybe . It's so slow .
Well , maybe the net is slow now . Try it again .
I am used to editing with Word 2003 , and there are many pictures in the book .
It's beyond question . You can save it the same as a document .
I merely know how to send the direct letter . But I am not familiar with the attachment .
It's the same as usual . The only difference lies in that you need to paste the book as an attachment .
Can I mail the book if it is a large file ?
There are limitations to the capacity of an E-mail . Commonly it's no more than 4 MB .
What if it exceeds the capacity ?
Hi , Lucy !
Hi . It ' s a wonderful wedding , isn't it ?
Yes , It's very great .
Mary's father is a rich man , isn't he ?
You are right , Mary's father is responsible for the entire wedding-arrangement , costs , etc . I think he must spend much money .
Will Mary and her husband be ready to leave for their honeymoon ?
Yes . Look ! Mary is going to throw the bride bouquet .
Is Stanley still singing that Elvis song ? He's really hogging the mic !
If I hear Love Me Tender one more time , I think I'll go crazy !
He sounds like a sick cow !
Can we adjust the pitch a little ? Maybe he'll sound better in a higher key .
I already tried that . Nothing seems to help .
Hey ! Where are you going ... ?
Did you enjoy that new movie ?
That movie's just a lot of noise , same as Simon .
Oh , what happened , Carole ?
I had to go by myself , he couldn't make it .
What ? I met him just before I took off from Kitty's , he said he was coming .
Kitty's ? He sure gets around , doesn't he ?
Looks like it . So how did he handle it to ?
His excuse was familiar . He said his car died again .
I think that's a bunch of nonsense . It seemed ok to me .
I know . Last week he gave me a lie about being too busy .
Doesn't sound promising .
Well , I think it's the time to pull the plug .
If you want I'll let him know if I run into him .
Do you know Mark ?
Yeah ! He is a nice guy . He is very helpful and always bends over backward to help those who are in need of help .
Can you introduce him to me ?
Hello . This is the Customer service . How can I help you ?
Yes . I ' Ve been getting harassing calls recently . Can I have my phone number changed ?
Sure . What ' s your favorite number ?
How about 560 436 4040 .
I ' m sorry . This number has already been registered .
How about 560-436-8976 ?
This number is ok . It ' s still available . When would you like your phone number changed ?
As soon as possible . Can I have it right now ?
Sure .
You keep bowling spares but no strike .
I don't know why , but I think there's something wrong with my hands . I couldn't seem to be able to control it on the first ball .
I don't think it was the problem with your hands , you did several excellent spares . You have no problem with your hands .
Then why couldn't I get strike on the first ball ?
The problem is you are too nervous . You want to have a strike so much , so you deliver the ball too hard . And when it comes to the I second roll , there's no pressure . That's why you could bowl all those spares .
How far is it from here to the airport ?
It ' s about an hour ' s drive .
I need to get there before ten . Can we make it ?
Hi , John Phillips ? I ' m Rose Green . I ' Ve been asked to handle your training and introduce a little bit of the company to you . It ' s nice to meet you .
It ' s nice to meet you , too , Ms . Green . This company seems so big right now ; I don ' t know how I ' ll ever get used to it .
After a week , you ' ll be running around here like a pro . Let me give you this list of departments first , next to each department is its location and the name of the manager .
OK , Mr . Wu . You may come in . I'm Anne Smith and on my right , my colleague , Anna Duncan , and on my left , Angela Lamb . Do please sit down .
Thank you . Good afternoon Mrs . Smith , Miss Duncan , Miss Lamb .
Your English is fluent .
Thank you .
How do you think of the weather today ?
That was a great party . Thanks for staying behind to help me clear up .
It certainly was a great party . It ' s a pity that a glass and a plate got broken and someone spilled a drink over here .
I expected that something might get broken . That doesn ' t bother me . That spilled drink won ' t leave a stain , will it ?
I doubt it , I'll deal with it right away . Luckily it wasn ' t a glass of red wine , I ' ll just get a bowl of water and a cloth .
I ' m going to put all the rubbish into this big plastic bag .
Afterwards , we can do the washing up together . Everything will be finished within an hour . Your friend Keith is really funny . I liked his magic tricks .
Yes , he ' s very good .. isn ' t he ? He told some funny stories too .
Amanda told some very funny jokes . At the beginning of the party , she was being very serious .
I think that she had a litter too much of the punch .
What did you put in that punch ? It tasted great , but was quite strong .
That ' s my little secret . Did you like the snacks that I prepared ?
Very much . The birthday cake was delicious , wasn ' t it ? Emily told me that she and karen made it themselves .
That cake tasted so good ! It disappeared within minutes , so I think everyone liked it a lot . How ' s that stain ?
Can you help me find a nice gift for my young niece ?
Barbie dolls are quite popular , you know .
You're right . Girls love Barbie . Show me a Barbie doll .
Take a look at the newest Barbie -- Digital Barbie .
She's beautiful . What's the price for Digital Barbie ?
Our regular price for Digital Barbie is $ 29 . 95 plus tax .
Only $ 29 . 95 ? I'll buy it , of course .
Another one sold . Do you see anything else you would like ?
Thank you , but no . This will do it for now .
Tax brings your total to $ 32 . 42 . How would you like to pay ?
Cash , please .
Hi , it is a pleasant surprise !
Yeah , it ' s been ages ! So how have you been ?
Couldn ' t be better . And you ?
We are going to the concert this evening . Will you join us .
I'm very sorry I can't .
Why not ?
Hey Joanne . What are you up to ?
I'm just watching some television .
I'm so bored . I don't know what I'm going to do today and it is only ten in the morning .
Me too . Do you think we are boring people ?
I don't think we are boring . It's just that we don't have any hobbies .
That's right . What do you think we should do as a hobby ?
That all depends on what you like to do . For example , I like to doodle on the notepad , so I'm thinking about doing some real drawings .
I like to play the piano for fun .
Yeah . That can be a good hobby .
Hobbies are great . I'm going to make a list of all the things I like to do .
Excuse me , sir ?
Yes ?
I'm afraid you can't smoke here .
Why not ?
Can't you see the notes here ?
I'm sorry . I can't . What does the note say .
It says ' No smoking ' .
What's going on ?
Nothing really . How about you ?
A lot , like the party I'm having on Friday .
Well , that's cool .
Will you be able to make it ?
I'm busy this Friday . I'm sorry .
What do you have to do ?
I'm having dinner with my family
Maybe you can come next time .
I'll make sure and come to your next party .
I'll look for you at my next party .
When do we get off the bus ?
I think we have a while longer .
I feel like we've been on this bus forever .
That's true .
Are you sure we weren't supposed to get off already ?
I don't know .
I thought you knew where we get off at .
I wasn't really paying attention . I think we missed our stop .
Seriously ?
Yeah , we definitely missed our stop .
That's the last time I get on a bus with you .
This is the route I thought we could take on our hike on Saturday afternoon .
How long is it altogether ?
It ' s about six or seven miles . That ' s about ten kilometers .
That sounds OK . So , we start here at the car park and walk along the path to the waterfall .
Right . Then we turn left and walk up this small hill . The view from the top of the hill is worth the climb . We can eat a snack there .
Then we will follow this path down the hill to the old church .
We can spend a few minutes looking around the church . Then , we turn right and walk along this path .
This path leads to the cave . Can we look inside the cave ?
Yes , we can , but it isn ' t very interesting .
Then we turn south and come back to the car park along this path .
That ' s right .
How long do you think it will take us to complete the walk ?
I think it will take about four hours , including breaks .
That ' s fine . Are there signposts along the way , in case we get lost ?
Have you anything to declare ?
One bottle of perfume and a watch .
Where did you buy it ?
In Boston .
Do you travel a lot ?
Oh ... I go to see my sister twice a year or so .
Twice a year ? How long has your sister lived in Boston ?
Nearly ten years .
I see , that's a long time . How much was the watch ?
I can't remember , but I've got the receipt somewhere . Would you like to see it ?
Yes , I'd like to see the receipt . Oh ! I see you bought the watch last week .
Yes . Does that mean I'll have to pay duty on it ?
Yes , I'm afraid you will . Altogether on the watch and the perfume you owe me seven pounds .
Ok . Here you are . Is that all right now ?
Yes , that's fine . I hope you enjoyed your stay in Boston ?
Hello ! How can I help you , sir ?
I want to take out a loan for school . What kind of interest rate do you offer ?
Do you qualify for any of the Federal loan programs ?
Yes , but I need to borrow some more money .
Well . In that case we can offer you a private educational loan .
What's the interest rate ?
It's 7 . 2 % , fixed-rate loan .
How do I go about taking it out ?
Just fill out this application . We can let you know right away if you qualify .
Now let me tell you your definite duties in this office and this is your desk . Please sit down .
I see . Thank you . Sir , what kind of duties will I do ?
B , your main duty is to answer phone calls and transfer files to the person who wants them . Is that difficult ?
It's easy . Is there anything I can do for you , sir ?
Well . I have nearly forgotten . Mr Green from ABC Company had an appointment with me , but I will be very busy at that time . If he calls , you can tell him the appointment will be changed to next week .
What's your favorite sport ?
I really enjoyed that film ! What about you ?
So did I . At first , I thought it was going to be boring , but then it turned to be good .
What part of the film do you like best ?
Well , the scene of the hero's struggle with enemies impressed me the most .
I loved it , too . To tell you the truth , I even dropped tears .
Actually , tears also came to my eyes .
It has got this year's Oscar Award .
... And now , let ' s go to Kenny Williams for today ' s weather forecast .
Thank you Bill , and good morning Salt Lake City !
What ' s the weather looking like today , Kenny ?
Well , it ' s a bit of a mixed bag in Utah today . we ' Ve got heavy cloud cover here in Northern Utah , and we ' re calling for scattered showers throughout the day , with a day-time high of forty-five degrees . Now , if we move down to the south of the state , we can see that a cold front is moving in . We can expect clear skies , but it will be quite cold , with temperatures hovering around the thirty degree mark .
It ' s a chilly day folks , so don ' t forget your coats ! What about tomorrow Kenny ? Do you have good news for us ?
Well , it ' ll be a rainy day for Northern Utah . we can expect some isolated downpours in the morning . Winds will be coming in from the North East , with gusts reaching twenty-three miles per hour . Salt Lake City can expect the rain to turn to sleet in the evening . Things are looking a bit better for the South . we ' ll see cloudy skies with a chance of showers . Later in the day , we can expect partlycloudy skies , with a forecast high of thirty-eight degrees .
You heard it folks ! It ' s gonna be a cold one !
I really don't know how to break this to you , but it ' s eating me alive !
Just tell the truth . I won ' t take it personally .
Well ... hum . You are sure you won ' t lose control of yourself ?
Sometimes it's wise to be direct with people . Come on , just tell me . Don't beat around the bush , please !
Well . Since you ' d like an honest answer , I will tell you the truth .
Alright . What is that you want to tell me ?
We ' Ve won two free tickets to Hawaii for a seven-day vacation !
I have to use the ATM .
Is there a problem ?
I don ' t know how to use it .
What are you talking about ?
I have never used an ATM before .
I can show you how to use it .
How do I use it ?
You need to push your card into the machine .
What ' s next ?
Enter your PIN .
What else do I have to do ?
Are you married ?
Yes , I've just married .
How long have you been married ?
I have been married for three years .
How many people are there in your family ?
There are four people in my family .
Who are the members of your family ?
Han Maimed , What's your plan for the weekend ?
I plan to travel around Harvard University and know more about it . To tell you the truth , I plan to apply for Harvard after graduation from high school . It ' s better to get to know it . What about you ?
I get together with my Christian brothers on Saturdays .
Oh , my God ! John , I didn ' t know you are religious . You just look like a scientific kook , like Leonard in the Big Bang Theory .
Come on , Han Maimed , don ' t make a fuss . A lot of Americans , including many scientists , believe in religion .
But I ' m really surprised . I thought science and religion are not compatible , are they ?
Yes , they are compatible . Actually , the U . S . is both the most developed and the most religious country in the world .
I've heard about it a little bit before , but I don ' t understand . How can people believe in God since they know God doesn't exist ?
That ' s a little complicated . You ' ll get to know it when you are acquainted with the U . S . history later on . Religion was and is a part of American people ' s life . Guess what ? Even Harvard University , which is a highly academic institution , is in a sense the product of religion .
Really ?
Absolutely ! It was founded by a group of Puritan immigrants from England .
Why was it founded by the Puritans ? Where were the atheistic educators ?
Because most of the first English immigrants who came to the United States were Puritans .
How come ? I mean why most of them were religious people ?
That ' s because in the 16th and 17th century , there was a series of religious reforms in England . Many religious separatists were persecuted and fled to other countries .
So , you mean people didn't enjoy religious freedom in England ?
Yes , that's why Puritans moved to the New World , where they believed they could establish a heaven for Puritans . Later on , it was these Puritans who founded Harvard College .
Why did they want to found a college ?
Many Puritans had received classic style of higher education in Oxford University and Cambridge University back in England . They hoped that their descendants could receive this kind of education as well .
Oh , I see .
Actually Harvard was first named ' New College ' , without a formal name .
When did it begin to be called Harvard University ?
In 1639 , it was renamed after its major benefactor John Harvard . Interestingly , JohnHarvard himself was a clergyman .
It seems that Harvard was predestined to be influenced by religion .
Therefore , it ' s not exaggerate to claim that had there not been religion , there would note Harvard .
Wow , I didn ' t know that religion had played such an important role in Harvard history .
Religion has been playing an indispensible part in Harvard history as well as the U . S .
I finally begin to get to know Harvard . It seems that my knowledge of Harvard is rather poor . I have a lot work to do before applying for Harvard .
Remember that Harvard is a part of the United States . So you have to know the U . S . history and culture if you want to have in-depth knowledge of Harvard . The two are closely related .
That ' s right . I have a lot to learn from you .
Good , morning ! Can I help you ?
Good morning . Could you tell me the times of trains to London , please ?
Yes . There are trains at 7 fifty-nine , 9 eighteen , 10 thirty-two and 11 fifty-five .
What time does the 7 fifty-nine get to London ?
At 9 thirty-six . And the 9 eighteen gets to London at 9 fifty-five , the 10 thirty-two at 11 nine .
What about coming back ? I'd like to come back about 7 p . m .
There's one at 19 and the next is at 19 forty .
Mmm , how much is it ?
Single or return ?
Return , please .
If you get on before 4 p . m . or after 6 p . m . there is saver return which is $ 9 . 45 , an ordinary return is $ 16 . 45 .
Hi , is this Steven ?
No , ma ' am . This is Sean . Steven ' s out sick .
I can promise you that , if you buy our product , you will be getting A-l quality .
I've looked at your units , and am very happy with them . Your goods are all far above standard quality .
We spend a lot of money to make sure that our quality is much better . We won't sacrifice quality for quick profits .
Well , we're really interested in placing an order under negotiation . We can start the negotiations as soon as you want .
Great , I'm glad we'll be able to do business together . I'll have some quotations ready for you by tomorrow morning .
hello . How was the marketing meeting ?
hi . It was awful . I think I put forward some great ideas , but none of them were accepted .
I ' m surprised to hear that . I thought you had some very good suggestions .
so did i . I ran the ideas by a few people before the meeting and their ideas seemed to have the supports of some people .
so what happened in the meeting ?
one or two people didn ' t take to my ideas very well . That was to be expected . The worst thing was that the people who said the idea were good before the meeting didn ' t support me during the meeting .
I wonder why not . We could always revise the suggestions , to take into account any objections .
that ' s good advice , but I ' m not confident that even revised proposals will be accepted .
may I make a suggestion ?
sure . I ' m open to any reasonable suggestions .
Is there a chance you could contact the client confidentially and see what they think ? If they like your ideas , perhaps they could put them forward as their own proposals . You won ' t get credit for ide
I ' m not sure that ' s a good idea .
Last month , we only had 40 hits on our site . Our products and prices are good , but the problem is that no one knows about our website .
If we want to get this internet business off the ground , we've got to do something fast .
We need to maximize the chances that our site will be at the top of search engine lists , but I'm not sure how to do it .
We've got to put more buzz words into the page text , so it will pop up when people search about our kind of products .
Yeah , you're right . We've got to get the most popular phrases there ... How else can we boost site traffic ?
I think one of the least costly ways to attract business is to ask some of our neighboring sites to offer links to our page inside of theirs . If they have related services , they may be willing to help us out .
Excuse me . Can I get a refund of my ticket ? I have to cancel my trip because I have something emergent to deal with .
Which train is the ticket for ?
It is Train No . 249 . It will depart in four hours .
It is not too late . Pass your ticket to me , please .
How much is the cancellation fee ?
Five Yuan .
Good morning . My name is Penny White . I'm new here .
Nice to meet you . My name is Tyler Smith . Let's go to your office desk , follow me please .
OK .
Here is your working place . Nancy will come to show you how to set up the telephones . I'm going to call her now so that you can get started . Is that OK ?
Yes , that's OK . I'm glad to get started .
If you have any further questions , just ask me .
OK . Thank you very much .
This is our best product .
How long will it take to make five hundred ?
They'll be done before the end of the week .
We agree to give you a break on the price , all together a discount of 6 % . Good news is , I talked to my boss , he confirmed that if you take care of the shipping costs , we'll throw in insurance .
Great ! I'd love to get a little better discount than 6 % , but if your company provides the insurance , that will save us a few bucks ...
Now , all this is available to you , as far as you make payment within a 30 day grace period . That shouldn't be a problem , right ?
No ... We shouldn't have any problem with that . I know we talked about a possibility for 90 days , but we won't be needing that after your discounted price .
So , if all this is agreeable to you , I'll put it all down on paper and fax a contract to you this afternoon . If you can get a signed version of the contract we've agreed upon back to me by tomorrow morning , we can go ahead and make arrangements to ship the product on Tuesday .
Did you enjoy the restaurant ?
I didn't really like it all that much .
What do you think the problem was ?
Well , they are pretty new . I just didn't feel that they were ready to open yet .
How did you feel about the food ?
The food wasn't all that exciting .
I don't think that the service was good , either .
Yes , the service certainly didn't add to the experience .
Would you like to return to this restaurant ?
Mom , am I like a superman ? All I need is a cape .
No , just a super-boy .
Mom , you always think of me as a child .
Yes , because a real man doesn't need Mom to worry about him so much . He can do things by himself .
Sure !
Oh , my poor Danny , sure , you are a man . But you know , running like this in street is very dangerous .
Superman is not afraid of any danger .
Do you remember the rules of road safety ?
What ?
Walk the sidewalk and please right-hand side .
Don't play on the street or make any noise .
Yes , so you still remember , ah .
Hello , may I help you ?
Yes . We ' re interested in seeing the rooms for rent .
Oh , how nice . They ' re bright rooms and the house is very quiet .
A nice quiet house is exactly what we're looking for .
Well , gentleman . Each room is $ 40 a week if you think that's OK .
That sounds just wonderful to us .
When do you want to move in ?
How about this afternoon ?
Did you hear peter just retired ?
Are you sure ? He is quite young , isn't he ?
He is not young as he looks . I think he's almost sixty .
I have never done this before and don ' t know where to begin as far as making an offer on this house .
Leave the details of making the offer up to me . What were you thinking you should offer ?
I absolutely must have this house and will pay three hundred and fifty thousand dollars or more .
It is best to start a little low on the first bid to allow for a counter-offer . How about offering three hundred and twenty thousand dollars ?
I hope that the owners aren ' t insulted by that offer .
Your offering price is not out-of-line . The owners will either take it or make a counter-offer .
Does it usually take very long for the owners to get back to you with an acceptance ?
It usually doesn ' t take very long for owners to respond to an offer .
Should I be in touch with my bank to tell them to get the loan papers ready ?
You look great !
Thanks to you . I'm totally pumped up .
So you are happy that you made the decision to join us .
I surely am . But still there is one single problem .
What's that ?
I eat more and more these days . And it puts even more weight on me .
It's not good to start with too much work-out at the beginning . What about trying something else ?
I'd love to do that . What do you recommend ?
More and more people are warm up to Yoga these days . Do you want to have a try ?
Do you think it's a good option for health and relaxation ?
Absolutely . But it takes great perseverance to master .
I can so that .
Here is a free class going on right over there . Go and join them .
How did it go ?
Your total comes to $ 36 . 78 .
Put it on my VISA .
There ' s a problem with your card .
What ' s wrong with it ?
I believe it was declined .
You ' re kidding me !
Do you have another card I could try ?
I only have one card .
Do you have cash , perhaps ?
I don ' t have any cash on me .
You ' re not going to be able to take these items today .
I've moved .
The bartender just gave the last call . Let's order another round , okay ?
Sure , but let's get a pitcher this time . We should be able to down it before they close .
That sounds good . You order the beer while I go to the bathroom . Where is the can in this place ?
It's all the way to the back . See that yellow door ?
Yeah . I think I can find it .
You're back already . That sure was quick .
That's because I just took one step inside and turned right around . That bathroom is too gross for me .
Well , the bartender wouldn't give me the pitcher of beer . Anyway . He said it was too close to closing time .
Let's leave then . I could take some fresh air , anyway .
What can I do for you ?
I am coming to inquire about the information of the company . When was this company established ?
Well , this company can be dated back to 1893 , so it has a hundred years of history .
Excuse me , madam . Is this seat taken ?
No .
Do you mind my sharing the same table with you ?
Of course not . There are so many people here today .
I hear you're moving to New York .
Yes , I found a very good job down there .
Well , we'll certainly miss you in Boston .
I'm going to miss you folks , too .
Let's keep in touch .
Good afternoon , sir , is there anything I can help you with today ?
umm ... yeah ! I ' m looking for a nice gift to give my girlfriend . Our fifth anniversary ' s next Friday .
Well , I would be happy to assist you in choosing the perfect gift for her . Is there anything particular that you have in mind ?
No , not really ... I ' m completely at a loss .
Well , you can give her a set of pearl earrings , or this beautiful heart-shaped pendant . What is her favorite gemstone ?
That purple one . I ' m sorry ... I ' Ve never bought jewellery for anyone and I ' m kind of nervous .
Don ' t worry , we specialize in providing our customers a relaxed , pressure-free shopping environment . That stone is an amethyst . We have a range of beautiful amethyst pieces . Take a look at this bracelet . It ' s 18K rose-gold , studded with amethyst and blue topaz . It ' s a great statement piece .
Oh ... wow . That ' s really pretty . Jess would love that . But ... I was thinking of something a little more delicate , perhaps a necklace ?
We have this beautiful platinum pendant , or you could also get her a locket . You could also get her a timepiece -- it ' s both glamorous yet functional . If you tell me a little more about your girlfriend , maybe I can help you find something for her .
Jess ? Well , she ' s very smart , and has a great sense of humor . She ' s very feminine ...
Perhaps you could give her a ring ?
Well ... actually ... I was thinking about asking Jess to marry me ... I ' Ve just been so nervous .
Well sir , I believe your fifth anniversary is a great time to propose !
Okay , I ' Ve decided . I ' m going to pop the question !
Julia , what's the weather forecast for tomorrow ?
It says a storm may come tomorrow .
Oh ! I hate rainy days !
Me , too . I'm always in low spirits when it rains . Are you going out tomorrow ?
Yes . I have to drive to Washington D . C .
What bad luck !
Yeah ! But you know sometimes the weather forecast is not correct . Maybe tomorrow is a clear day . Who knows ?
I left a suitcase on the train to London the other day .
Can you describe it , sir ?
It's a small blue case and it's got a zip . There's a label on the handle with my name and address on it .
Is this case yours ?
No , that's not mine .
What about this one ? This one's got a label .
Let me see it .
What's you name and address ?
David Hall , 83 , Bridge Street .
That's right . D . N . Hall . 83 . Bridge Street . Three pound and fifty pence please .
Here you are .
Thank you .
Hey !
What ' s the matter ?
Hey , look out !
What happened ?
You've just scratched my car . Oh , God , a paint was scratched off .
Where ? my car ?
No , mine !
Thank goodness !
I've just had it repainted .
That's terrible .
I am sorry to say this , sir , but you should've been more careful .
I apologize for that . But the space is too small .
What about the damage to my car ? What are you gonna do about that ?
Can we solve this later ? I am calling the insurance company .
Excuse me . May I use the phone first ?
Are you in a hurry ?
You bet . I was supposed to call my mother an hour ago .
Did you go to the basketball game on Friday ?
No , I couldn't make it .
You missed a really good game .
Oh , really ? Who won ?
Our school did . They played really well .
Too bad I was busy . I really wanted to go .
Yeah , you should have . It was really exciting .
So what was the score ?
The score was 101-98 .
Man , that was a really close game .
That's what made it so great .
Hello .
Hello . Is Steve there ?
I'm sorry . He's not here right now .
What time will he be back ?
Around five thirty .
This afternoon ?
Yes . May I ask who's calling ?
This is his friend , Greg .
Okay . I'll tell him you called .
There are many new kinds of newspapers . I find it hard to choose among them . Which is the most popular paper circulating in our city ?
I'd recommend you the Morning Paper , it is true that the paper is a newly issued one , but its circulation is rising . Last month , it reached to three hundred thousand , which is a very good figure for a new paper .
What's the reason that people prefer to read this one ?
I think perhaps the news stories in it are truthful and accurate . It also has a special page about the stock market ; maybe this is the real reason for its popularity . Many people are now speculating in the stock market .
Would you like to go to a concert tonight ?
I'd like to very much .
All right , then . There is one at the new concert hall .
Who's playing ?
It's the Powell orchestra .
Do you know what they are playing ?
They're doing a seventeenth-century program .
And who is directing ?
Linda , have you prepared fully for tomorrow's meeting ?
Yes , Mr . Li . Everyone has been informed .
Great , we don't expect any big problems to happen .
Do you think the bad weather will last long ?
I don't think so . It changes so quickly this time .
I hope so . We have planed to visit the square but we have to cancel it .
I think you can go to visit the museum . It's worth seeing . You can go to the square some other time .
What ' s your city like ?
It ' s quite an interesting place to live . The best thing to do in my city is go shopping . There are several indoor and outdoor markets , department stores and shopping malls .
Is the traffic bad in the city centre ?
Not really . Cars are not permitted in several parts of city centre , especially in the main shopping areas . The public transport system is pretty good .
What about restaurants and entertainment ?
There are restaurants with food from all over the world . We have a small china-town near the city centre . There are many Indian , thai , and Italian restaurants all over the city centre . There are many s
Is there a lot of nightlife in your city ?
There are several good clubs near the city centre . Many people in my city prefer something more cultural , so we several theatres and venues for classical music concerts and operas .
It sounds like a really exciting city to live in .
I am wondering if you have a room with twin bed .
Yes , we have one and it faces the beautiful sea .
That's wonderful . I want to stay for 2 days .
OK , we will make it ready for you .
Don't you think it's nice out ?
Yes , I think so too .
I think that it's going to rain .
I hope that it does rain .
You like the rain ?
The sky looks so clean after it rains . I love it .
I understand . Rain does make it smell cleaner .
I love most how it is at night after it rains .
How come ?
You can see the stars so much more clearly after it rains .
I would love for it to rain today .
How good are you at sports , Bill ?
Are you kidding ? I ' m terrible ! But I love to watch sports . I go to football or baseball games a lot . And I read sports magazines every week .
Wow !
Do you like sports , Janice ?
Oh , yes . I like to exercise . But I don ' t watch sports or buy sports magazines . I don ' t have much time to do those things .
Oh , I see . You know , we spend time doing different sports . How much time do you spend exercising ?
Well , I guess I exercise about two hours a day . I do aerobics three times a week , and the other days I play badminton 1 with my husband . I always feel good afterward .
That ' s great ! I ' Ve heard people say that before .
Well , why don ' t you try to get some exercise ? It ' s difficult , but very rewarding .

No , nothing .
Would you open this suitcase , please ?
Sure .
Let me take a look at this bag . Can you open it ?
Yup .
Is this camera a gift for someone ?
No , it's my camera for personal use .
You have to pay tax for this camera .
No , please don't . It's is for my personal use .
You have a lot of gifts , so you have to pay for the camera .
Is this Mr . Smith ' s residence ?
Yes , it is .
My name is Paul . Is Mr . Smith in ?
Good morning , sir . Can I help you ?

What do you want for your birthday from your parents ?
I don't know . Maybe a pair of new shoes .
Why don't you ask them to buy you a PC ? You will soon use it at college .
Welcome back ! How was your vacation ?
It was fantastic , but I'm glad to be back ! Being a tourist is really tiring !
Where did you end up going ?
Because it's off-season , we got a really good package deal to Paris , so we went there .
I've always wanted to go to Paris . The Eiffel Tower is one of the most famous tourist attractions in the world ! Did you go to the top ?
That was the first thing we did . I have a few pictures . Do you want to see them ?
Sure . What's this one a picture of ?
Oh , that's a picture of me on our fourth day of travelling . I'm standing next to a famous foundation in the centre of the city .
You don't look very happy in that picture .
No , by that time , I was sick of sightseeing . I had had enough of art galleries , cathedrals , fountains , statues , and palaces !
So what did you do ?
We spent that afternoon walking around a flea market . We had a few coffees , watched a movie , and went for a swim in the pool at the hotel .
My travel agent always reminds me to plan a day of relaxing for every 3 days of sightseeing . Did you go to the Louvre ?
Of course ! You can't go to Paris without going to their famous art gallery ! I was surprised by how small the Mona Lisa was though .
Can I see the paper when you're through , Sally ?
OK . I just want to read the comics .
Did you hear the news ? Two of our major suppliers , Murphy Music and U-Tunes are merging ! If they are conglomerated into one company into one company , it would have some serious affects on our market strategy .
Are you sure ? Who told you that ? I highly doubt that they would take the step to merge into one company ... They're supposed to be bitter enemies , the strictest of competitors . It must be a rumor . It can't be true .
I read it myself on the financial page . They ' re really going to join together . U-Tunes was bought out by Murphy's , they will take over the company as of next month .
The competition must have been too stiff for U-Tunes . Otherwise why would they allow themselves to be taken over by their sworn enemy ?
Welcome to our factory .
I've been looking forward to visiting your factory .
Actually , you'll know our products better after the visit . I'll show you around and explain the operations as we go along .
That'll be most helpful .
Maybe we could start with the Design Department . And then we could look at the production line .
How much do you spend on design development every year .
About 10 % of the gross sales .
The order is so urgently required that we have to ask you to speed up shipment . If shipment is too late , we'll have to turn to other suppliers .
I am sorry , but we can't advance shipment . The manufacturers are fully committed . They have no stock on hand .
Can you find some way for an earlier delivery ?
How's this then ? We propose partial shipment . We can ship whatever is ready to meet your urgent need instead of waiting for the whole lot to get ready .
Sounds like a good idea .
We propose to deliver 50 % in June and the balance in Aug .
How do I make a good impression in the interview ?
You should try to put your best foot forward , and be careful of your personal appearance . At least you should get yourself dressed up . Appearance isnt everything , but it's the first thing an interviewer notices about you .
Anything else ?
Don ' t boast and don ' t be modest .
What do you mean by this ? You can ' t do the two things at the same time .
Appear confident and show the interviewers that you ' re competent . Don ' t exaggerate things or you'll give the impression that you ' re talking big .
I see .
Try to be natural , alert and interested .
You ' Ve given me very valuable advice and I have more confidence in myself now . Thank you very much .
Tina Li , Financial Planner , how may I be of service ?
Hello , Tina . An acquaintance of mine has just told me that your bank has started a new Personal Wealth Management Service . Is that right ?
It certainly is . You can do almost anything with it , anytime , anywhere .
How would I go about applying for this service ?
All you need to do is sign up at any one of our branches and you can use the service right away .
That's so simple . I'll come by my local branch later this afternoon and get it set up . Thank you very much , Tina .
Hello , Anna speaking !
Hey , Anna , this is Jason .
Jason , where have you been hiding lately ? You know it's been a long time since your last call . Have you been good ?
Yes . How are you , Anna ?
I am fine . What have you been doing ?
Working . I've been really busy these days . I got a promotion .
That's great , congratulations !
Thanks . I am feeling pretty good about myself too . You know , bigger office , a raise and even an assistant .
That's good . So I guess I'll have to make an appointment to see you .
You are kidding .
How long have you been working there ?
A bit over two years . This is a fast-moving company , and seniority isn ' t the only factor in deciding promotions .
How do you like your new boss ?
She is very nice and open-minded .
Much better than the last one , huh ?
Yeah . He was a real slave driver . He probably would have loved it if we were robots .
Forget about him . Come over to my house tonight . Let's get drunk .
Good . Tonight 8 o'clock .
8 it is . See you then .
And anything to drink ?
Yes , a red wine and a cup of coffee .
How do you like your coffee ?
With milk but without sugar , please .
Then how about the wine ? Is white wine OK ?
The whether in Beijing is just beautiful .
Autumn is the best season in Beijing you know ?
Yes . I can see . The summer heat is over . And the winter cold is still far away .
What is the whether like in Washington at this time of this year ?
Autumn is also very nice In Washington .
Is it very cold in winter there ?
No . it isn ' t . But sometimes it slows a lot in winter .
Does it rain a lot in summer there ?
Oh . Yes . Sometimes it rains very heavily
How about here in Beijing ?
There ' s a lot of rain in summer . But it seldom rains in autumn
I feel it ' s rather dry here
That ' s true . many people from the south don ' t like the whether here .
Are you from south ?
No . I ' m from the north . I was born in Beijing actually .
That's a very nice pair of glasses .
Does it really look OK ?
Yes , and I like the color too . It matches your eyes .
And I got it on sale .
Hi there , I'm Steve Saunders . What ' s your name ?
I'm Patti Whitney . Isn ' t this convention great ?
Yes it is , better than I expected it would be . The presenters have been first rate . Is this the first conference you've been to ?
No , I've been coming for the last 3 years . Each year keeps getting better . Where are you from ?
I'm from Long Island , New York . What about yourself ?
I'm from the other side of the coast--Los Angeles .
Wow . I really like California ... the weather there is much better than the East Coast .
Have you been to California ?
Just once . Quite a few years ago we took the kids to Disneyland on our vacation . They had a blast .
How many kids do you have ?
Two , a boy and a girl . They ' re already grown now .
Mom ?
Mm ?
Can my friend , Tom Mitchum , come home with me for lunch tomorrow ?
Of course , Jim . Have I met Tom before ?
Mm -- hmm . You met him last summer . He is small and very smart .
Oh , yes . I remember Tom . His family comes from Maine , right ?
Happy New Year !
Thank you ! The same to you .
Have you got any plans ?
I've been invited over to a friend's . And you ?
Are you ready , Pa ?
In a second . Have you got a torch ?
No .
The baby is crying again .
Leave him alone , he ' ll soon stop .
How can you do so ? Perhaps something is wrong with him . Let ' s go and see him .
Shall we go to a movie tonight ?
That's a good idea . What ' s on ?
Gone with the Wind .
What's it about ?
What's up ? You look low .
It's my girlfriend . I guess she's playing the army game .
How come ?
I saw her dating with her ex-boyfriend again .
I understand that . But I think maybe it's not a date . You are taking the matter too much to heart .
Now that it ' s the new year , I ' Ve decided to turn over a new leaf .
Yeah ? You finally decided to wipe the slate clean ?
You got it ! I have a new job , I ' m living in a new city , with new friends ! This is my opportunity to make some small changes in the way I live my life .
So what are you going to do ? Take up an art class or something ?
Well , first of all , I ' Ve decided to stop smoking . It ' s not that I ' m pinching pennies or anything , it ' s just that I ' Ve been smoking since I was sixteen , and I think it ' s time to stop .
I ' m with you on that one . Anything else you ' re planning on doing ?
One last thing , I ' Ve decided to come out of the closet .
Hello , this is Mr . Simon . May I help you ?
Hello , this is Wang Li . I want to know the status of the position .
Sorry , I can't give you an immediate answer on the matter . It's pending now .
When can I know whether I'm accepted or not ?
Miss , please give something to drink .
Excuse me , sir . What kind of drink do you want ?
Do you have whisky ?
Yes , but you have to pay for it .
Well , in that case please give me some free drink .
Do you want any meat today , Mrs Bird ?
Yes , please .
Do you want beef or lamb ?
Beef , please .
This lamb's very good .
I like lamb , but my husband doesn't .
What about some steak ? This is a nice piece .
Give me that piece please , and a pond of meet , too .
Do you want a chicken , Mrs Bird ? They're very nice .
No , thank you . My husband likes steak , but he doesn't like chicken .
Are you excited about your trip next month ?
Yes and no . I can ' t wait to go to Europe , but at the same time I am terrified .
Why ?
Well , I have acrophobia . I have a chronic fear of flying .
Oh really ? I have an uncle who is also terrified of flying . It ' s not that bad though , I mean , it is pretty scary to be in this big machine flying through the air at seven hundred miles per hour . I actually have arachnophobia .
You ' re scared of spiders ? I actually have two more phobias . Acrophobia and glossophobia .
I guess that explains why you are afraid of flying , but public speaking is not that bad .
Are you kidding ? When I get on stage , my palms start to sweat , I get really nervous and I can hardly speak .
Well , I must confess I am a bit claustrophobic . I hate being in an elevator for more than 5 seconds .
Can you believe that Obama is our new President ?
I ' m so happy about that .
Did you vote for him ?
I sure did . How about you ?
I voted for him .
I have complete confidence in our new President .
Is that right ?
I know he will help change America .
I hope so , because America needs a change .
I feel like things are already changing , because he was elected .
I agree with you completely .

I'm colin . It's nice to meet you . What do you do ?
I'm a freelance English teacher . How about you ?
I'm in between jobs at the moment .
what kind of job are you looking for ?
I'd like to find a job with flexible hours in the IT field .

that's OK . Have you sent your CV out to anyone yet ?
I've sent my CV to dozens of companies but nobody has got back to me .
did you write a clear objective in your resume ?

I think you need to update your CV . Bring it over to my office tomorrow and I'll help you with it .
Hi , Xavier . I'd like to go over the list of jobs for next week's maintenance shut .
Sure . We've got a lot to do in a short time . We're planning to shut the line at midday on Wednesday and start up again at 6 pm the following day . We might need to extend the shut by about six hours .
Our production people won't be happy about that . We've got a full order book at the moment . Is there any way you could speed things up ?
How is Jim recently ?
He has lost his job , and his wife died from cancer not long before .
Hey , what's up ?
Nothing really .
I'm throwing a party on Friday .
I didn't realize that .
You didn't ?
Nobody has told me anything about your party .
Did you want to go ?
When does it start ?
At 8
I'll be there .
I'd better see you there .
Hi , can I help you ?
Yes . We have a reservation .
What's your name , Sir ?
Jack .
Yes Sir . We have your reservation . Could you fill up these forms , please ?
The reservation was for a double , for three nights . Wasn't it ?
Peter , take off your pajamas .
What should I wear today ?
It's chilly outside , so don't forget to put on your jacket .
How's the shirt ?
Have you been registered yet , sir ?
No , I haven't been registered .
Are you a medical or surgical case ?
I'm a medical case .
Do you have your medical history sheet with you ?
Yes , here you are .
Please fill in this admission card . Well , how long do you expect to stay in the hospital ?
The doctor told me to stay about one month .
But there're no beds available now . Two patients will be discharged this afternoon , so you'll have to wait until then .
Well , when they leave the hospital , give me a call and I'll come back .
It's time to graduate and it's time to find a job . Susan , why do we need to find a job ?
We need to work is because we need money to live . We need money for food and clothes and to pay for our house . We need money for many different things , and only when we work , we can earn money . And work can also help us feel that we are useful .
But you know it's hard for a new graduate to find a job right now .
Yes , it is really hard . But you must believe that you will find a suitable job finally . When you work , you can accumulate a lot of experience . Besides , you need to learn a lot of things while you are working .
I've been fed up with study .
But whether you like it or not , there ' s a trend of life-long study to make sure that we can keep ourselves up with the high developing society . And you need to accept this concept positively .
Oh , my . Why there are still so many things to learn after graduation ?
Happy Birthday ! This is for you , Kate !
Thanks . Miss Zhang .
You know in China we usually don't open presents until the guests leave .
Hi , I come to pick up my laundry . This is the invoice .
Here you are . We've ironed them for you already . Please check and see if there is any damage .
I'm afraid that a button is missing .
I'm terribly sorry . You know we are so busy today and we forget to sew the button back on . Please wait a moment . It will be ready soon .
OK , please .
Would you like to have a look ? Is it to your satisfaction ?
Well , oh my God , there is another problem , I'm afraid . There is still a stain on the shirt .
It doesn't seem like that . Sorry , sir , we've tried everything , but we're not able to get it off the shirt . It was from the sugar I think .
It's been several days now , I am not sure .
Yes , the sugar was burnt during the dry-cleaning process . And there you go .
Oh , that's so bad . I know little about that . Is there a remedy for it ?
I am awfully sorry . Please tell us about the stains before the dry-cleaning next time .
OK , I will .
This is a membership card . You can get a 20 percent discount next time .
Thanks a lot .
Hi , dear , do you know what the important day is today ?
I don ' t know .
Please think it over .
Oh , I see .
Come on , dear . I know you mustn ' t forget it .
It ' s Saturday , a great weekend .
Ur , you really let me down .
Don ' t be angry with me . I have a bad memory .
No , you haven ' t . You just don ' t care about me . You ' re an indifferent husband .
What day is it on earth ?
You should have been at home and enjoyed a big meal .
Yes . I should have gone to buy the ticket in advance . But now ...
But now you can stay with friends and enjoy a holiday too .
Welcome , sir , what can I do for you ?
I want to buy some records .
Whose record do you want ?
Are there the records of Michael Jackson ?
His records have been sold out . The new copies will be available next week .
But it's the White House . The president and his family live there . They won't let us see most of it . Probably we can only see a couple of rooms .
No , that's not true . The White House is very big . And there are a lot of historical exhibits there . The tour will take us through many different rooms . I read about it in the guide .
Hmm . If that's true , then the security there must be very good . Because it's strange to think they will let people walk around in the White House .
I'm sure the security is very tight . Probably they will make us walk through metal detectors like at the airport .
So I can't take my gun then .
Don't always joke like that ! You don't have a gun .
Yes , it's true I don't .
You shouldn't say things like that . You could get arrested !
What ? Do you think someone will arrest me for making a joke ? Someone will arrest me here at the breakfast table ?
No . But if you say something like that in the White House , they may take it seriously . Sometimes I think you joke too much .
I'll be careful . Don't worry . I don't want to get arrested by the FBI . But how long does the White House tour last ?
I'm not sure . I think it lasts about one hour .
Alright . We should take a taxi over there right after breakfast .
First I want to look in the travel guide . Maybe they don't have tours in the morning .
That's a good idea . Do you want some more coffee ?
What seems to be the problem ?
My stomach hurts , Doctor .
Has this been a problem before ?
Yes .
For how long ?
I have had it on and off for the past three years . It's just gotten much worse these past two weeks .
Do you only feel this way when you stomach is empty ?
After I've eaten , it goes away for a while .
Do you feel nauseous ?
Yes , occasionally .
Do you have regular bowel movements ?
I think so .
Let me take a look at your abdomen . Lie down on your back and bend your knees up . OK . relax ... Alright , it seems like you have a duodenal ulcer , but we'll have to run some tests before I can be certain . You should get a good rest first and try not to strain your stomach too much .
Is it serious ?
The total cost is 850 dollars . How would you like to pay ?
By credit card .
We take Visa and Master Card .
Do you take American Express ?
No , we don't .
Ok , I'll use my Visa . Here you are .
What are you worrying about ?
I am worrying about my husband .
Where is he ? Is he in danger ?
Ouch !
Are you all right ?
Do you mind if I smoke ?
How long are you staying ?
Four weeks .
May I ask what brought you here ?
I'm here on business .
What line of business are you in ?
Are you ready ?
Ready for what ?
Ready for the big switch .
What are you talking about ?
The nation is switching to digital TV .
Oh . Of course I'm ready .
Did you buy the converter ?
No , I don't need a converter because I bought a digital TV .
How much was that ?
It was only about $ 120 for a 13 - inch screen .
Does it pick up any digital channels ?
May I help you ?
Yes . I'm sorry , but I've lost my passbook .
Well . Can you tell me how much you have deposited ?
About RIB 12,000 .
Please let me have your name and your savings account number if you remember it .
I'm Bob Brown . But I can't recall my account number .
Don't worry , Mr . Brown . Let me try to check it for you . One moment , please . Yes , I have your account number here . The balance is exactly RIB 12,000
Thank goodness . It is still there . Thank you very much .
It's my pleasure . Please fill out this lost passbook bill and list the code word you used when you first opened your account .
Well , I ' d better get back to work . I ' Ve got a ton of stuff on my desk !
Me too . I ' ll see you after work , huh ?
Yeah , definitely . I was hoping to catch a ride with you .
Who will meet you at the airport ?
No one .
Spring Festival is the most important festival in China , isn't it ?
Yes , that's true .
How long is the holiday ?
It depends . But usually it's about 15 days .
Do you eat any special food for the festival ?
Yes , dumpling is a must . There is also other food . For example , people eat chicken for good luck .
That's interesting . I'm told the Chinese firework is very beautiful , isn't it ?
Yes , it's really wonderful !
Oh , great ! I hope I can spend this Spring Festival with you here in Beijing .
Hello . Excuse me . Do you know if there's a Commercial Bank around here ?
Yes , go straight along Beijing Road and turn right .
Straight on , and turn right . Is it far ?
No , it's just a couple of minutes .
Thanks very much .
Excuse me , where is the nearest bank ?
There is one next to the post office , round the corner .
You look like being on cloud nine .
I am .
What has made you so happy ?
I think I'm in love .
Are you ? Who's the lucky girl ?
Her name is Jenny .
How did you meet her ?
We are in the same math class . Our teacher sat us next to each other .
What do you like best about her ?
She's very funny . She makes me laugh all the time .
I guess it was fate working to bring you together .
What would be the earliest that I could actually move into my new house ?
The keys will be turned in on Tuesday night . The house will be yours at that time .
What should we do to make sure that we have the electricity and water turned on ?
You can tell the utility company what day you are moving in , and they will transfer the utilities to your name .
There are a few things that we want to do to the place , like painting and carpet cleaning .
Take advantage of the house being empty to clean and paint . It will be harder to do after the furniture and appliances have arrived .
I asked the store to deliver my new appliances on the day we are moving in .
That will be good . You are going to want your stove and refrigerator right away .
I could use some help on moving day . What are you doing on Saturday ?
Are you going to take the job ?
I heard that you went to the concert the day before ? How did you like it ?
It was terrific . The concert was really a hit . The symphony orchestra was so good that I was completely absorbed in their performance .
Who was the conductor ?
Oh , speaking of the conductor , he is indeed a genius . He did a perfect job . His name is Menuhin , a descendent of Russian American immigrants .
Oh , I learned that he is also a legendary violinist .
Absolutely right . He gave a performance of Felix Mendelssohn's violin concerto . That caused a sensation . The audience were stunned by his pure tone .
Obviously you did enjoy the concert .
We have reservations for two at your restaurant tonight .
Yes , What can I do for you , sir ?
I'm calling to see if I can request a specific table .
I can try to arrange that for you .
I proposed to my wife in your restaurant and I would like the same table if I can .
Can you describe for me , where you were sitting ?
It was a little table by the bay windows overlooking the wharf .
Hello , what can I do for you ?
Hello . I'm sorry to tell you that I've lost my credit card this morning . I want to report the loss and replace a card .
Don't worry . I will help you soon . Please fill in this form first . And write down your name , your account number and the amount in your card please .
Done !
OK . May I see your ID card ? ( B passed his ID card . ) Please wait for a moment . Let me go and check the account . ( A few minutes later . ) We have locked your card . You can come here to renew the account and get a new card a week later . Your money will not be lost .
Thank goodness .
Please pay 10 yuan , the handling charge .
OK ! Thank you very much . See you a week later .
How is night life in Beijing ?
Very interesting !
What do you suggest then ?
How about going to dance ? There is a very good nightclub nearby .
That's a great idea . Let's go ... Oh , the dance hall looks very nice and the music is wonderful .
I'm glad you like it . The band is called " Four and One " . They are especially good at playing rock and roll .
That's great ! I love to dance to fast music .
Then you must be interested in disco dancing , aren't you ?
Yes , disco dancing is my favorite . It ' s great fun and good exercise as well .
OK . Let's disco .
Now the band is playing a slow dance .
That's a waltz . Would you like to try it ?
Sorry , I think I'Il sit out the next dance .
What made you decide on this type of occupation ?
Oh , to tell you the truth , I love the sky . When I was a child , I imagined flying into the blue sky some day . Now , I think the day has come . My dream will come true . And I like travelling very much and I enjoy working with people .
Can you make yourself understood in English without too much difficulty ?
Yes , I think I am quite fluent in English . I got the certificate of the Secondary English Training last month .
Do you know what the responsibilities are for a stewardess ?

Are you in good health ?
I just had a complete physical examination and I am in top condition .
Have you had any nursing experience ?
Yes , I have two years of nursing experience , and now I am working as a nurse in a hospital .
How tall are you ? What about your eyesight ?
My height is one meter and sixty-eight centimeters . I've never had any vision problems .
What would you say are your strengths and weaknesses ?
One of my strengths is my friendliness and open-minded attitude and also I think I have a warm personality . But sometimes , I find it is hard to tell others when I don't like what they are doing .
If a passenger can't understand what you say , what should you do ?
Hi Wei , what are you going to do this weekend ?
I think I ' ll stay in on Saturday and rest .
Oh right ... How about Sunday ?
Ah , I ' m going to the pub to watch the football .
Oh really ? I ' ll come along with you if that ' s ok .
Sure , you ' re more than welcome . I ' m meeting everyone at three o ' clock .
It's getting late , and I have to go now .
We're sorry you have to leave .
Please excuse me , won't you ?

It covers an area of 75,000 square meters .

In the early 70s . We ' ll soon be celebrating the 30th anniversary .
Congratulations !
Thank you .
How many employees do you have in this plant ?
500 . We ' re running on three shifts .
Does the plant work with everything from the raw material to the finished product ?
Our associates specializing in these fields make some access - ries . Well , here we ' re at the production shop . Shall we start with the assembly line ?
Good morning . Ru Via Hotel , Room Reservation . Can I help you ?
Yes . This is Peter calling from New York , I have to change the date of reservation .
How and in whose name has the reservation been made ?
By telephone and in my name .
Please wait a moment . I'll check it in the computer . Thanks for your waiting . You've booked 10 standard rooms for trade negotiation for March 5th , 6th and 7th , is it correct ?
Right , but the negotiation has been postponed until 5th to 7th of April . Do you think it's possible for us to change the reservation ?
Are these your triplets ? They ' re beautiful ! I ' Ve seen other babies who were nothing but skin and bones at their age . You know , they ' re absolutely identical of you and John ! Are you planning on having any more ?
Bite your tongue ! I ' m already at the end of my rope . Some nights I don ' t sleep at all . John manages to sleep like a log even when the babies are screaming at the top of their lungs .
Well , tell me . How was the labor and delivery ?
I wouldn ' t say that I had the time of my life but at least everything went without a hitch .
I have never you mention this friend . Are you on very good terms with him or her ?
We have been on good terms . She is a very nice girl . But she got in Dutch with her boss . I don ' t have the heart to see her pounding the pavements .
You must be stuck on her , or you would not use your elbow grease .
I want to go house shopping , and I want to know what I can afford to buy .
There is a formula that can help us figure that out . What is your annual salary ?
I earn sixty-five thousand dollars per year .
What is the length of time that you have worked at the job you have now ?
I have been at the job I now have for 2 years , and I have been with the company for 6 years total .
Do you receive any other income ?
I own a small rental unit with a partner , and I receive five hundred dollars a month from that unit .
Do you know what your credit score is ?
I don ' t know , but the last time I checked , it was very good !
Good morning , Sue .
Good morning , Tom . How are you ?
I'm fine , thanks , how about yourself ?
Things couldn't be better . Where are you going now ?
I am heading for the library . I've got a research project to do . How about you ?
I'm going to the English class . It ' ll start in five minutes , I've got to run .
See you later , alligator .
Did you see May today ?
Yes , but why does she have such a long face ?
I don't have the foggiest idea .
I thought she'd be happy .
Yeah , especially since she got a promotion recently .
i saw lily for the first time . and fell like i'v been struck by lightening . she is a girl of my dreams . i have a date with her on Friday , but i really can't decide what to do .
what about taking her for a dinner or a movie ?
not bad , any other ideas ?
well , there is a play on campus this weekend .
good idea . that ' s why i think i have culture . you have any other suggestions ?
what's the matter with these ideas ?
They are good , but i still need a few more .
what about going on a picnic ?
Cool , but what if the weather is not ideal ?
you can also take her to the art museum or a cafe . Certainly , i must come up with something you can use . how do you like the ideas i am giving you ?
Jessica is going back to Holland next week . I've been thinking a lot about what to give her as a parting gift , but I still have no clue .
is that the girl you spent almost every weekend with ?
yeah , that's her . We had a lot of wonderful times together . She is really a special friend , and I want to get her something meaningful .
I am not good at picking gifts . Maybe you can ask if there's anything she needs to make it easier ?
I don't think so . That way it would lose all the charm . I want it to be a surprise . I want to show her that I care about her and I hope our friendship will last .
yeah , that's nice .
hmm , I think I've got an idea . Maybe I can get her an ever-green plant to take back home .
a plant ? That's creative . I'm sure ever time she waters it she'll think of you . But there is a problem . Do you think it'll be able to go through the customs ?
I hope so . I'll make sure to get a small one so she can put it into her suitcase . I hope it won't cause her trouble at the border .
How would you describe your relationship with our boss ?
We have a fairly good working relationship , but there was also a rough spot .
What do you think his strengths are ?
Does anyone need a drink ?
I'll take one . How's the cooler situation ?
It's still stocked , and there's plenty of ice . Here you are-cheers !
Cheers . You guys didn't drive , did you ?
No , we walked . Why , do you need us to carry some stuff home later ?
Good morning .
Good morning .
This is Mary . Can I speak to Anne please ?
I ' m sorry . She isn ' t in at the momment . She will come back at half past nine . Can I take a message for her ?
Thank you . But I will call her later .
OK . Goodbye .
I think you made the right choice , coming to us . We have a wide selection of vehicles you can choose from .
I would like to rent a car with a good stereo .
All our cars have stereos in them . Stereos , air conditioning . It's all standard with us .
Good . I am here visiting my girlfriend . I want her to have a good time .
Oh , is that so ? Well , then . Let me show you something she might like . It's on our back lot .
This is a Porsche !
Yes . Beautiful , isn't it ?
But I probably can't afford it . It must be really expensive .
Well , sir . You said you were looking at cars at the rental agency at the airport . Now with them you'd spend your money and get nothing for it . But you could probably rent this Porsche from us , for the same price as one of their standard cars .
But how can you do that ?
It's because our prices are so good . And this car has a lot of miles on it . But it's in nice shape , isn't it ?
Dave , wake up .
Which ? Zina ? What time is it ?
It's seven-thirty . I want to know who left this note on my desk .
What note ? I can't see . I just pulled an all-nighter .
It's a little green post-it note , stuck right in the middle of my computer screen .
And ? What does it say ? Isn't there a name ?
Excuse me , can you tell me where the breakfast cereals are ?
They're in aisle 2A , down that way .
Are the snack foods in that area , too ?
Yes , they're in ... let me think ... Aisle 3B , if I remember right .
Okay , I'll go take a look . Thank you so much for your help .
Lili , let ' s take a vacation !
George , how can we ? Vacations cost money . And this month we don ' t have much money left after paying the rent .
Well , Lili , we can visit different places in the state in our van . We are not going to take a plane or stay at a hotel this time . Trust me , it won ' t cost much .
Where will we sleep , then ?
In the van .
What about other expenses ?
Let ' s see . Gas , food , recreation , we won ' t spend much . Come on . Don ' t hesitate . We need to get out of the house once in a while . We have been working hard , haven ' t we ?
Maybe you ' re right . When do you plan to go ?
The sooner the better ! I can ' t wait !
Oh , I don ' t know where we ' re going yet .
As long as we ' re going , you can decide where to go . I trust your judgments . I know you miss Chinese food , so we can eat at a Chinese restaurant this time .
Ladies and gentlemen , we are heading towards the first spot of our trip-the Louvre .
Wonderful . That's a place famous for its arts .
Yes . There are so many famous paintings on show . I am sure it will be an unforgettable trip .
Surely it will be . By the way , when will we get there ?
Like to come over to our fancy dress party ?
Oh shame ! I have a class tomorrow .
Well , then join us some other time .
Hey ! Ask your mom for more old pictures , OK ?
Can't it wait ? She's still angry that we sent e-mail wedding invitations .
But we saved your parents so much money ...
I know . And they're spending enough on the plane tickets to Texas !
Speaking of plane tickets , don't forget to check on the reservations !
How do you do . I ' m Mark Rancor .
Nice to meet you .
May I know your name , please ?
I ' m Rose Teller . I think I ' Ve seen you somewhere before ?
Ah , yes . I remember now . Were you Mr . John ' s dinner partner last month ?
Yes , I was . You work for 3M , right ?
I did but now I ' m for Microsoft . How are things with you ?
Good .
May I know what you do ?
I ' m a fashion designer . Next month , I have a fashion show . I ' d love it if come . I can get you a couple of tickets . So you can bring a friend if you like .
Sure . That would be great . Good luck .
Is Bob home ?
Let me ask some questions . Do you know what people need to get entry into China ?
Yes . An passport and a visa are necessary for entry into China .
What materials do they need in order to apply the passport ?
have you seen bill recently ?
yes . He ' s in hospital with a bad back . One morning , he just couldn ' t get out of bed . His wife called an ambulance and they took him to hospital . He ' s been there for a few days now .
daisy ' s in hospital too . she got food poisoning last week . She thinks she got it from some bad seafood .
you have to be very careful with seafood . It tastes lovely , but it often causes upset stomachs . Have you heard anything from tom ?
he ' s fine , but he had a fever last week . He probably just had a cold .
he might be allergic to pollen . My niece is allergic to pollen . It seems like she has a cold , but in fact it ' s her allergy .
I see . My niece just flew back from Australia to visit . She ' s got jetlag now . she ' s just resting today , but we ' ll probably go out somewhere tomorrow .
it ' s nice that she ' s back for a while . Thinking of all these ailments , I got a splinter the other day . It took a long time for me to get it out of my skin . Look .
oh , your hand is still sore . You should put some ointment on it to stop the swelling .
that ' s a good idea . You ' Ve got a nasty bruise on your hand .
John ? I have to say I was bothered by the way you handled the meeting today .
How so ? I thought it went fine .
I think it would have been better if you had given us more of a chance to give our opinions .
Hello everyone , and welcome to our CPR for beginners course . First of all , does anyone know what CPR stands for ?
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation !
That ' s right ! We apply CPR in the case of cardiac arrest or pulmonary arrest .
What does that mean ?
Well , basically if your heart stops pumping blood , or your lungs stop pumping air , then we need to get them going again ! That ' s when we have to apply this procedure . Let ' s begin ! I need a volunteer .
Me ! Me !
Alright , come here and lay flat on your back . Let ' s suppose this young woman has stopped breathing . We must lift the person ' s chin so that we clear a pathway for air to get into the lungs . Then we place our mouth over the other person ' s mouth and blow air two or three times , like this .
Wait , what are you doing ? I ' m a married woman ! You can ' t just try to kiss me like this !
Madam I ' m not trying to kiss you ! I am trying to demonstrate how to apply CPR in the case of an emergency .
Well , OK . But no French kissing !
As I was saying , we blow air through the mouth in this manner . Once this is done , we must try to get the heart going again . To do this , we place our hands over the person ' s chest , and press down firmly two or three times .
Mr . Wilson . I'm very glad we reached the agreement at last . Now I'd like to propose a toast to the further development of our cooperation .
I'm very delighted too . I'm sure that we'll have a wider range of cooperation . So , let's drink to the signing of our contract .
Bottoms up !
He was hauled up last week for the second time .
You mean he had been put in prison before .
Of course , he is a man with a history .
Hello , Rachel . It's glad to see you here .
Hi , Ross . Glad to see you , too .
I'm going to throw a party tomorrow night . Would you like to come ?
A party ? Yes . I'd love to . Thank you for inviting me . Will Monica come ?
Of course .
That's great ! What time will it start at ?
At 6 o'clock .
OK . I'll come . See you then .
What's your little caper ? Come home so late ! We are all worried about you .
Oh , I am terribly sorry . But I was so captivated with the singer at the subway exit . So I forgot the time .
Singing ? At the subway exit ? Oh , it sounds like someone needs some money .
Oh , no , the guy was a musician who just sang . He played the guitar and sang so many cool pop songs . Many people were drawn to his music and there was no hat on the floor . He sang for appreciation , but not for money .
It is just pop song , you could have sung there too if you want it .
Oh , no , it was a kind of pop art . I like it but I couldn't do it that well .
Honey , just do it next time . Have you heard of the real art in the subway station in Russia ?
No , but tell me some . I am interested .
Many oil painting exhibitions are there . That is a kind of Museum Exhibition .
Are there many people there ? Do you think people actually like them ?
I am sure you will . There are some works , and some students who major in painting interpret the meaning for visitors . And people can enjoy the paintings while waiting for the train .
But I still prefer the pop music in the subway .
Both the pop music and the oil painting ate arts , but with different aesthetic values .
Dad , you talk well , but can you appreciate that kind of art ?
Good morning , Miss Monica . Nice to meet you again !
Good morning , Mr . Thomas , it is nice to see you too .
After the internal discussion , we have all agreed that you are the most suitable person for this position among all the candidates . So , today let ' s talk about your expected salary and social benefits . What is your expected salary ?
I ' Ve worked in the field for more than 4 years . Depend on my work qualifications and experience , I would like to have 5000 Yuan to start .
The basic salary for this position in our company would be 4800 Yuan to start with increases giving according to your performance .
It is a bit lower than I expected . But I can accept that . What are the working hours ?
40 hours a week , Monday to Friday , 9 AM to 5 PM with one hour lunch break every day ..
Do I have to work on weekend ? If so , how do you pay for the overtime ?
We do expect overtime work when it is necessary , but we pay twice of the work hour for working on weekends and three times for working on national holidays like Spring Festival and the Mid-Autumn Day .
Is there probation ?
I think I may rent this apartment from you .
That would be wonderful .
Can you tell me how much I would have to pay for rent ?
The rent is $ 1050 every month .
That ' s way too much .
What is good for you ?
I can afford about $ 800 a month for rent .
That ' s not high enough .
How much more are you thinking ?
I can let it go at $ 900 a month .
That ' s almost perfect .
I can see by your resume here that you studied business administration .
That's right .
So I wonder why you want to work for a newspaper .
I did reporting for the university newspaper in my school . And I always be very interested in journalism .
But journalism , it is a very different profession from administration . You know a lot about administration . Why don't you choose to work for a company looking for managers ?
I study the administration . Yes . But I'm more attracted to writing articles . I want to use my knowledge of business to write financial news .
A new reporter must expect to work many hours .
Good afternoon . How can I help ?
Hi there . I need to change some dollars into local currency . Can I do that here ?
Yes , you can . Is that US dollars or HK dollars ? Both are available for exchange to RIB . How much would you like to exchange ?
Well , that depends . What's the rate like today ?
Today's rate is 821 . 32 USD to 100 RIB , which isn't bad .
Hi , Mary . I haven't seen you in ages ! I heard that you and Daniel are getting married on August 8th , the opening day of the 2008 Olympic Games . Is it true ?
yes , it is . We've been dating for over 7 years . We have decided to get married on a special day and we think August 8th , 2008 is a red-letter day .
good for you ! It sounds like you've done a lot of planning in a very short time .
yes , there is a lot of to be taken care of---wedding photos , wedding dress , catering , transport , hotel , etc ...
is everything ready now ?
almost . The only thing that isn't ready is the hotel . As a lot of people have chosen that day to get married , it is hard to find a hotel that isn't too expensive .
have you tried The Peninsula Palace Beijing ? My wedding reception was held there and they did an excellent job .
yes , we called , but it is booked up . The only choice is the Regent Beijing but we haven't made up our minds yet .
it's an excellent hotel . A friend of mine had her wedding reception there and said it was perfect , though very expensive .
that's why we want to have a look at other hotels . We don ' t want to spend too much on an extravagant wedding reception .
I guess you're right . I can help you ask other hotels . I am sure there are probably some available .
thank you .
May I help you ?
Yes , can I cash my traveler's check here ?
Of course , we'd be happy to cash it for you .
What's the cashing rate ?
Well , it's listed on the electronic board on the left . We cash it at present traveler's check buying rate .
Oh , I see . How much it the service charge ?
The service charge is 1 % of the total amount of the check .
Well , I'd like to cash these four checks for $ 100 each .
Would you please countersign them here ?
OK , there you are .
And your passport please .
Oh , I forgot to bring it . It is in my hotel room .
Sorry , sir . We can't cash the checks for you without your passport .
Do you have a bf ?
Yes , I had a bf before .
Why you say bf before ?
We parted from each other last month .
Have you got a new one ?
Mmmm , no . How about you ?
I am single , I have no real of , only an E-gf , that is you .
Haha , so you are my E-bf .
I like you . Do you agree to be my of ?
Mmmm . .. OK , let's try to be .
Wow ! Blablablabla . . .
Hey ! What is it ?
I am flying like a bird .
LL
I am so happy . I want to drink a cup of champagne .
I have no champagne right now . How about this ?
It's OK , so I send you this .
Is it made of chocolate ?
It's my heart ; it's made of what you like .
Oh , I will have a sweet dream .
Are you sleepy ?
A little bit . I have to go to sleep though I don't want to .
Yes , I do not want to see ur sleeping in the office .
Thx . Bye for now . Kisssssssssss .
Hello , Jason , there is going to be a screening of Final Destination 3 at our campus cinema tomorrow . I plan to go to see it .
Is it a horror movie ?
Yeah , I love horror movies . Would you like to go with me tomorrow ?
No way . I will be scared out of my wits .
That's funny , I didn't know a big fellow like you could be so soft and timid on the inside .
Hey , how would you like to taste my fist ?
Alright , all joking aside , what kinds of moves do you like ?
Um , let me see , romance , comedy . documentary , action , science fiction , animated and so on .
That is to say , you like all genres except for horror movies .
Yeah . It seems like we don't speak the same language as far as movies are concerned .
Not quite . I also greatly enjoy romance and comedy .
The Notebook is this type of movie .
Really ? I haven't heard of it .
Well then , this could be a nice opportunity to enjoy it together . I bet you'd love it .
What do you think ?
It looks great .
I would like to purchase it .
Will this be cash or charge ?
Here , take my credit card .
Just sign here , please .
Sure . Here you go .
Hi , I ' m Susan . What ' s your name , please ?

I have lived here for twenty years .
Twenty years ! That's a long time .
Yes , I have been here since 1976 .
Then why do you want to sell it ?
Because I have just retired . I want to buy a small house in the country .
How much does this house cost ?
6850 pound .
That's a lot of money !
It's worth every penny of it .
Well , I like the house , but I can't decide yet . My wife must see it first .
Hello . I have a room booked for tonight , the 15th .
Alright and what is your name , please ?
It ' s Marcia Gleason .
Ah , yes , here you are Ms . Gleason . You reserved a single , right ?
Yes , a single , thanks .
Do you mind being next to the elevator ?
I want to buy some jewellery .
What kind of jewellery do you like to have ?
I should like to look at some bracelets .
May I show you gold ones or jade ones ?
Jade ones .
OK , here they are .
What's the price for this one ?
Eight hundred yuan .
How about seven hundred yuan ?
I'm sorry , we only sell at fixed prices .
So how much should I gamble ?
Why not fifty or one-hundred dollars ?
Okay . One-hundred then . Do you think I will lose it ?
I don't know . You have to be smart , but you have to be lucky too . Some games are all luck . With some , you need to be smart .
I want games that are all luck .
I knew you would say that ! Then you should play the slot machines .
Slot machines ? No , I don't want that ! That's too boring . I want a game with cards or dice .
So what do you want to play then ?
Blackjack . We can play blackjack . And I will gamble one-hundred , or maybe two-hundred dollars .
Huh ? You are breaking our rule already ! And we didn't even start to play yet !
Oh , don't be so strict ! We are in Las Vegas .
Would you like to have some icecream ? I've got a variety of flavors for you to choose from . I've got strawberry , peach , chocolate , coffee , vanilla and praline .
Wow ! So many choices you have ! I wish I could , but I just can't . I'm on a diet to lose weight .
Come on , just a bite . It doesn't really hurt to have just a bite .
I'd better not . Please don't tempt me . Please !
Gee ! You are really strong-willed .
You're damn right . I'm not so easily coaxed into doing something that I think is wrong .
I am sorry , but I can't stay until the end of class .
Where do you need to be that is more important than school ?
I have an appointment .
Do you have a plan to make up your missed work ?
No , but I'll make sure someone helps me out this week with my missed work .
Are you going to go right away ?
I am leaving right now .
All right , but please remember that it is your responsibility to catch up .
Thanks , Professor . I'll make sure everything gets taken care of .
Oh , look at those earrings , Maria . They're perfect for you .
These red ones ? I'm not sure .
No , the yellow ones .
Oh , these ? Hmm ... Yellow isn't a good color for me .
Well , that necklace isn't bad .
Which one ?
That blue one right there . How much is it ?
It's $ 42 ! ! That's expensive !
Well , how does it look ?
It's a perfect fit .
Let me pay for it now .
Cash , credit card , or debit card ?
I think I'll use my credit card .
Your signature here , please , and we're finished .
Here's my John Hancock .
Excuse me , could you tell me where I can get a shopping basket ?
Yes , Madam . It is at the entrance .
Well , I can't find the way to the entrance . Would you tell me where the entrance is ?
Okay . Follow me please .
Thank you very much . By the way , where are the vegetables ?
What did the doctor say ?
He said that I have been eating too much .
Did he give you any advice ?
Yes , he asked me to clean up my diet by cutting red meat .
Did you know that drinking beer helps you sing better ?
Are you sure ? How do you know ?
Well , usually people think I'm a terrible singer , but after we all have a few beers , they say I sound a lot better !
Well , I heard that if you drink enough beer , you can speak foreign languages better ...
Then after a few beers , you'll be singing in Taiwanese ?
Are you ready to order now , sir ?
Yes , please .
What would you like to have for your appetizer , sir ?
I would like vegetable soup , please
And what would you like to have for the main course
Shrimp salad . And what kind of pie do you have ?
Apple , banana and strawberry pie .
Then a piece of apple pie , please .
And what would you like for dessert ?
Icecream , please .
What flavor would you like ?
orange
Do you know much about computers ?
Not a great deal .
I've just been reading an article about them . they ' ll be used for all sorts of things now .
For accounting system and things like that , you mean ?
Yes , but they are used for other things , too . Do you remember when we went to buy a ticket for the flight to Paris .
Yes ?
The man asked where we want to go , then he type out the information on the form and waited for a reply . A few moment later , he gave us two tickets .
Of course , his machine must have been connected to a computer .
What kind of movies do you like , Sue ?
I like all kinds of stuff . I admit I love romance .
Just like my wife . So , what ' s your favorite movie ?
You mean my favorite movie of all time ? I guess I ' d have to say pretty woman .
Have you seen the movie Batwoman ?
No , not yet . Is it good ?
Yes , it's quite amusing , actually . Good plot , and Sharon Stone's in it .
Oh , she's good . She must be getting on a bit now .
Yeah , but she looks amazing .
So what's the movie about ?
Well , it's about this woman who got murdered because she discovered some company secrets about the cosmetics company she worked for . But then she got reincarnated as a cat .
Huh ?
I know . Stay with me . She then decided to get her revenge by revealing the company secret and killing the boss . First , though , she had to discover her true cat nature . At the end she had a big fight with Sharon Stone , who was the real danger in the company . She had actually murdered the boss , who was her husband , and then tried to frame Batwoman for the murder , so everyone thought Batwoman was evil .
I see . Batwoman married the boss ?
No . Sharon Stone was married to the boss , who treated her badly , so she killed him . So where was I ? OK , so then , at the same time she fell in love with a cop , who was investigating the murder of the boss . Finally , she ditched the cop to follow her feline nature .
Wait a minute , I'm lost . The cop killed the boss ?
No , Sharon Stone did .
And Sharon Stone is Batwoman ?
What did you do at that company ?
I helped my boss organize some grand ceremonies and maintained close relations with newspapers , magazines , the radio and the TV .
If a consumer complains about the quality of your products , what will you do ?
Good morning !
Good morning , Gav ! Did you sleep well last night ?
I slept like a baby . I fell asleep right away last night , didn't wake up once , and didn't have any nightmares !
That's great news ! You look much more relaxed than you did yesterday .
I feel much better , but I'm still worried about something .
What's that ?
Well , I have to drive to school for a meeting this morning , and I'm going to end up getting stuck in rush-hour traffic .
That's annoying , but nothing to worry about .
For me , traffic jams are quite stressful , because I'm pretty impatient . How can I prevent myself from getting stressed if I get stuck in a traffic jam ?
Just breathe deeply when you feel yourself getting upset .
Ok , I'll try that .
Is there anything else bothering you ?
Just one more thing . A school called me this morning to see if I could teach a few classes this weekend and I don't know what to do .
Do you have any other plans this weekend ?
I'm supposed to work on a paper that'd due on Monday .
Try not to take on more than you can handle .
Good morning . Your ticket and passport , please ?
Here you are .
Do you have any baggage to check in ?
Yes , one box .
Would you please put it on the scale ?
OK . By the way , can you tell me how many kilos of free baggage each passenger is allowed ?
The baggage allowance is different according to the class of your ticket . What class are you travelling ?
First-class .
For a first-class passenger , the free baggage allowance is forty kilos .
How many pieces of baggage can I carry on to the plane ?
Passengers holding first class tickets may carry 2 pieces within the total weight of 5 kg onto the plane .
If my baggage exceeds the allowance , what should I do ?
If the checked baggage is over the allowance , we will charge you for the overweight .
I see . Thank you very much for your information .
You're welcome . Your boarding pass and baggage check , please .
Your husband is very helpful , isn't he ?
Willing to help , maybe , but not as helpful as you think .
Really ?
Who wants to go first ? Allen ?
Uh ... I mostly just like to listen . You're the groom . Why don't you go first ?
OK . Put on something by the Backstreet Boys !
How about As long as You Love Me ! You can pretend you're singing it to your fiancee Brooke !
Hey , Cindy , I'm so sorry about yesterday . I shouldn't have yelled at you in front of everyone .
Don't worry about it .
I don't know what happened to me . I just lost it .
I think you just need to get more sleep .
Don't you think we ' d leave for the concert now ?
What time dose it start ?
In about 25 minutes .
Can I ask for leave this afternoon ?
What is the problem ?
I had a headache this morning . I didn ' t pay attention to it . I thought probably it is because I didn ' t sleep well . But now it is getting worse and worse . I feel quite dizzy now and my eyes are somehow very light-sensitive . Maybe it is the migrated .
It is ok . You look really pale and red eyes . I suggest you go home immediately and have a good rest .
I can't find my keys .
My name is Mary , and I will be your server this evening .
Hi Mary . We are really looking forward to a great meal here .
Can I interest you in an appetizer to start out ?
I would love an appetizer . Are they listed in the menu ?
We have our daily appetizers listed on the board over there on the wall .
I am thinking about the popcorn shrimp . How is that ?
That would be a great choice !
I'll trust your taste and take one order of that .
We have a special where you can order a second appetizer for half price .
I'd like to order room service to room 927 , please .
How can I help you ?
I'd like to two roast beef sandwiches and one fruit salad , please .
Will that be all , sir ?
No , could I also get some extra towels and soap too ? We went to the pool today and used up our two clean towels .
I'll have someone bring that up right away . How would you like to pay for the dinner ?
Just put it on with the rest of my hotel bill .
I really admire you , Diana .
Why , Jerry ? Your words just came out of the blue .
You are always happy and able to achieve high scores at school .
I work very hard and that's it , you know , practice makes perfect .
Isn't there anything else ?
I have no idea .
You must have a high IQ score .
Well , Jerry , let me tell you a secret .
Go ahead .
My IQ score is slightly above average .
Seriously ? But you are such a genius .
Maybe I've got a higher EQ . I'm not sure .
Well , perhaps you're right . Sometimes EQ matters more than IQ .
You can say that again , Jerry . And I'm sure you're high in both of them . With a little more time cracking the books , you can also get high marks .
OK , thank you . I'm going to the library , are you coming ?
I'm going to quit this job . It's way too stressful .
I've noticed you've been working overtime a lot .
This shirt you gave me is not my favorite brand .
Excuse me . Have you got any books on genetic engineering ? I've looked for them everywhere , but I can't find any .
I'm not sure if we've got any now . Books of that kind are on this shelf . Well , I'm afraid we've sold out .
What a pity ! I should have come earlier .
Come some time next week if you like . I think we'll have got some by them .
Mom , this is your third bowl of rice !
I know but I have no choice . My stomach just keeps crying for more and more .
Why ? I never saw you eat so much before .
I've been going to the gym these days . The exercise makes me hungry all the time .
So your stomach is the one that actually gets a lot of work-out .
Don't pull my leg .
This way you'll probably put on more weight . Will you give up ?
Surely not . I can feel the results . I'm starting to feel different now .
Then how are you gonna deal with the problem of getting extra weight ?
I'm planning to meet my personal trainer to have the work-out plan fixed .
Oh , I've got an idea . Why don't you ask Dad to go with you ? He badly needs some exercise .
Your father is a bit too timid . He even doesn't know how to introduce himself .
He can just say , I'm Benjamin . I'm new and shy .
Girl , don't make fun of your Daddy . But I can introduce him to my personal trainer . Maybe one day he will be a fitness freak instead of a cough potato .
Good coming .
Good coming . Are you through with the cleaning ? If not , we'll come back a little later .
Never mind , come right in . I've almost finished . You always keep the room neat and tidy , I must say . It saves me a lot of work , but you should let me do it .
It doesn't take much time . I'm used to tidying up my room myself .
It's very considerate of you to do so . Do you have any laundry today ?
I have a suit that needs cleaning .
Welcome back movie lovers to another Premier Movie Review . My name is Richard Clarke and I am joined today by the very erudite DavidWatson .
Thank you Dick . Today we are going to talk about the movie Lion King . Tell me Dave , what is your impression of this film ?
Well , I think this film is simply a fable , depicting man ' s eternal greed for power , and in my opinion , it ' s a very fine film . Even despite the accusations of plagiarism traditional folk tales from other countries . The musical score was amazing , the animation was very well done , and the story was simply enchanting .
I think otherwise . Even though the animation was technically strong , and as you say , the score and songs performed by Elton John were great , the film lacks a certain originality ; it lacked heart . And I would dare to say , it was too predictable .
Predictable ! How ! Come on Dick , It ' s a G-rated movie ! It ' s for the kids ! It ' s not a thriller !
Well , that ' s just it . It did have some very dramatic and intense scenes For example when Mufasal dies , or the dark , grim portrayal of Scar . Even so , the film is linear . Mufasal dies , Simba runs away thinking it ' s his fault . Falls in love and returns to retake what is rightfully his . It ' s just too cliche .
How can it be cliche ? It ' s a fable ! It ' s telling a time-honoured story ! The movie make a point of how the hunger for power leads to corruption , and teaches children the value of respect , life and love .
You have always been so soft , Dave !
Open your heart Dick . Don ' t shut us out .
I'm busy year in and year out , but now I've done nothing .
You've done a lot , my darling !
I may have done a lot , but none is to my satisfaction .
You're too strict with yourself .
How about your present pay ?
Basically I get 5,000 RIB every month . It is a well-paid job with satisfying working hours .
What are your salary expectations ?
What he said disappointed me .
What did he say ?
He advised me to change to a more suitable course .
Why ?
He said that career in law was unsuitable for a women .
Can you loan me fifty dollars until pay day ?
I'm sorry I've already gone through my paycheck for the week .
What's wrong with him ?
Diana , in your opinion , which is more important , IQ or EQ ?
Why are you asking me the strange question , Jerry ?
I watched the movie Forrest Gump last night . And the question just lined in my mind .
Well . I think IQ matters more . But it won't work without EQ .
Why ? You seem pretty sure about it .
Because an intellectual mind can only be a beneficial thing in life .
But IQ is decided at birth . One can't expect to make a lot of improvement in it .
That's why people's achievement varies greatly .
That ' s true , but what if one comes across some difficulties . He must rely on his EQ to deal with them .
Yes , Jerry , can you share your understanding of EQ ?
I think it is independent of IQ and plays a prominent role in deciding the way we live our lives .
Quite right . Have you noticed that a high IQ is not a must for one's success ?
Just as Forrest ?
Yes , his IQ is high enough for him to embrace the success as long as he can manage his EQ .
I'm really fed up with Larry ! He's the biggest airhead I've ever met . He always makes careless mistakes , and he's a pain to work with .
You shouldn't be so negative . You ' ll always have some co-workers that are harder to work with than others . But if you are negative and start name-calling in the office , it will make a bad working environment for everybody .
You only say that because you don't have to work with him . The people in your department seem so capable and nice to be around . Take Mary for example . She ' s smart and enthusiastic . I've never met anyone as cheery as she is .
Everybody has their strengths and weaknesses . Even Larry . He might be a pain to be around , but he's also very good at staying in budget on projects . Mary , on the other hand , spends our project money like there's no tomorrow . Also , she's never willing to stay a little later at the office . She always leaves at 5pm sharp .
Isn't there anyone in the office that is a perfect co-worker ? What about Bob ? Everybody loves Bob . Even though he's flesh out of college and still a bit green , he is a great co-worker .
You're right . He ' s a hard worker , easy to get along with , honest , and he never steals the credit on projects . The only thing he's lacking in is experience .
Excuse me , I am Dunlin . I am here about your advertisement for a tourist guide . Are there still any vacancies ?
Yes . One more is needed .
Oh , I'm so lucky . I want to apply for it .
But do you have any experience like that ?
Yes . I have been a guide for two years .
OK . Then I want to ask you some questions about the tourist guide . If there wasn accident , for example a tourist falls ill , what would you do ?
I think I will call the office to send someone to meet us , and escort that person to the nearest hospital without interrupting our trip .
If one of them forgot a camera in a restaurant , would you let the tourist bus go back ?
No . In fact , prior to their boarding the bus and their getting off the bus , I will make an announcement to remind them that they should check their belongings .
Well , it seems that you have all the practical experience to handle these cases . I am very glad to welcome you into our company .
I've been looking forward to the new semester .
I hope we can make great progress in this new semester .
Hope so .
I hear we ' ll have a new English teacher this semester .
Really ? I hope we will do much better under her guidance .
in China at least , coffee is often associated with an exotic , well-to-do bourgeois lifestyle . Coffee is often considered a hobby of the well-educated , middle-class people .
maybe that's why some young chaps often spend a whole afternoon in a coffee bar , surfing the net or just typewriting something with laptop . While they are savoring a coffee at a leisured pace , they
yes . Behind a lifestyle , there is a culture . Young people easily become blind worshippers of a Westernized life . While they may not really life coffee , they think it desirable and enviable to be lavish
then what about tea ? We need to bear in mind in the first place that tea , rather than coffee , has been the most popular drink for the Chinese people .
well . Tea represents another facet of popular culture . While a coffee bar is usually quiet and resonates with soft , elegant music , a teahouse is often a noisy , crowded , public space . People visit tea
what a pity that the traditional teahouses , as depicted Lao She , keep fading away so quickly in this metropolis . It is not easy to find an old-fashioned teahouse that suits the ordinary people's spend
How much altogether ?
$ 40 .
Do you receive cash only ?
We receive credit card as well .
I have read your notice on the wall so I come to see if there is anything I need .
Well take your time . There are so many things to sell .
How much is the desk ?
$ 7 .
Excuse me , sir . Didn't you see the red light ?
Oh , I thought I could make a right turn on red here .
No , sir . The sign says no turn on red .
Oh , I guess I didn't see it .
I'm sorry , sir , but may I see your driver's licence and insurance policy , please ? I have to give you a ticket .
Here they are .
Sign here , please . You can appeal to the court within 14 days . This slip has all the information you need . Please drive safely , sir .
That's OK , Ben , just let it go . I thought you were just a little too much into it .
I wasn't kidding before , OK , I'm fine now .
Honey , have you ever heard that there are a lot of stray cats now .
Yes .
Now they are collected by some volunteers , and people can adopt them or make a donation for the shelters .
What are you saying ? You are acting weird today .
I want to adopt a cat , and it can be Barbie's boyfriend too .
Haha , very funny , but it doesn't make any sense to me .
That's all right . At least I got myself left .
Seriously , if we will adopt any animals , we'd gotta to talk to Daniel .
I hope that he would grant me with that .
Yes , sir . Where would you like to go ?
Silk market .
Is it the one on Xi Shut Street ?
What kind of job have you ever had ?
I used to work as a teacher .
How did you like your job ?
What's holding us back on the plant expansion project ? We were supposed to see the specs on that ages ago . Why haven't I heard anything about it ? Did the whole project just vanish into thin air ?
No , sir . The plant expansion project has been delayed . There was a snag up in the fling process to get the necessary construction permits . It seems that the property we were slated to build on is also habitat for some endangered indigenous species .
You're joking , right ? No wonder we've been tied up with this project . I know the environmental impact statement will take forever to get approval if they've found anything endangered on the site . Are they positive there is evidence of endangered species actually living there ?
Well , I ' d better get back to work . I ' Ve got a ton of stuff on my desk !
Me too . I ' ll see you after work , huh ?
Yeah , definitely . I was hoping to catch a ride with you .
Isn ' t this great ? I always wanted to own a farm , live out in the country , grow my own food !
This is very beautiful . Though I have to confess , I don ' t know the first thing about farming !
That ' s fine ! Don ' t worry about it !
What was that ?
Relax , it was just a goat !
And that ?
It ' s just the cows that are grazing over there . We can milk them later .
What was that ?
Honey , seriously , It ' s just a sheep . Relax !
Relax , that was just the horses and donkeys that are in the stable .
So Vicky , how long have you held your present position ?
I ' Ve been a secretary for two years , before that I was at university .
And how do you like working for IBM ?
It ' s challenging , I feel I have learned a lot .
What ' s strength do you bring to the job ?
I get along well with people , and I enjoy working with others .
Would you please make a skirt for me with this material please ?
What kind of style do you want ?
I like miniskirt .
Now let me take your measurements .
When can I get it ?
Three days later .
Thank you , see you then .
I have a little trouble , and I don't know how to deal with it .
What's the matter ? Please tell me . Maybe I can help you .
Tom wants me to write a recommendation letter for him , but I don't know how to write it .
Don't worry . I know about this .
Really ? Tell me without delay .
First you should have a salutation , which can be the company's or a person's name .
Well , I see .
Then you can write about his performance in college , including his academic achievements and his competence .
It's easy to write those .
You can also state his personality traits , hobbies and relationships with schoolmates and so on .
Tom got along well with classmates . He is really a good boy .
You can write all his strengths in the recommendation letter .
What should I write except these ?
You should also state that you are his class president , so you are qualified to write this recommendation letter
Excuse me , sir , your steamed crabs is coming .
It looks delicious . Can you tell me how to enjoy it ? It's my first time to eat it .
Mix a little soya sauce , vinegar and sliced ginger on this plate and dip the meat in it before eating .
Rebecca Johnson speaking .
I'd like to speak to someone in your Accounts Department , please .
Just a moment ... I'm afraid there's nobody there right now . Could I take a message ?
Yes , please . My name's Michael Caxton from one of your customers -- Rosedale Investments .
Sorry , just a moment . The name is Caxton ...
No , it's Caxton .
Fine , I've got that . And your company is ...
Rosedale Investments .
Could you spell that , please ?
It's R , O , S , E , D , A , L , E .
Thank you . And the message ?
It's about an invoice which is wrong .
Have you got the number there ?
Um ... yes ... it's 856674 / ros .
856674 .
That's right .
OK , I'll get someone to phone you first thing in the morning .
Hey Mike . What are you doing ?
Nothing much . What are you up to ?
I was just concerned about Sam . He hasn't been himself lately .
He took the civil service exam and failed .
That sucks . He must feel depressed .
Yeah . He's been sitting in his room everyday for the last 4 days .
Why don't we take him out ? We can try to take his mind off of it . In the least show him that we're there for him .
That's a great idea . Why don't you call him . I already talked to him a couple of times and it might be good for him to hear from somebody else .
Ok . I'll call you back after I'm done .
A new film is on . Have you ever seen it ?
What kind of movie is it ?
It's a feature film .
Which language do you speak ?
Well , I studied French at school , but I ' Ve forgotten most of it . I learnt some Russian while I was studying there and now I study Spanish in evening classes . Do you speak Japanese at home with your pa
Yes , I do . I ' m learning Chinese now on the internet .
How do you find studying a language on the internet ?
It ' s not easy , particularly with listening and speaking , because sometimes the connection isn ' t too good .
I bet you find the character difficult to write !
Actually , many of the characters are the same or very similar in both Chinese and Japanese , so they ' re easy for me .
So , you can read and write much better than you speak and understand other speakers , right ?
Yes . How are the Spanish classes going ?
Is the room ready for the meeting , Miss Chen ?
Yes , Mr . Li .
How about the microphone and speakers ?
I also have done it .
Good . Have you prepared some paper and pencils for the participants ?
Excuse me , can you tell me the way to the Forbidden City , please ?
Sure . Go straight on down this road , take the second left and then the first right . It ' s next to Tiananmen Square .
Thanks .
Joe , can you squeeze me in sometime today ?
That's a big order , Jane . I am really swamped .
I know what you're saying , but I have to go over the books with you before I go see our tax guy .
Annie , what is troubling you ? You look unhappy .
A man is pursuing me . He was my schoolmate in college , and he has been carrying a torch for me for three years .
Do you like him ?
Yes , I do like him .
Then why are you hesitating ?
You know that I have had a series of miserable relationships . Last summer , I fell in love with John . But the romance blossomed for six or seven weeks , and then wilted .
One love drives out another . You shouldn't be afraid to start a new relationship .
How was your test ?
It was bad .
Oh , honey , you should study harder .
But I already tried my best .
It seems to me that you are on very good terms with him .
We actually met at a dance party . He fell for me .
He must be all over you the first time he saw you .
He said that I put all other girls in the shade .
That means he was head over heels in love with you .
Well , he indeed likes me .
But I think he can't hold a candle to you . I don't think he has ever popped the question .
Hello , can I speak to Mark Wyatt , please ?
I am sorry . I can ' t hear your very clearly . Could you say that again , please ?
Does Mark Wyatt work there ?
Mark Wyatt ? I am sorry . The line is terrible . Could you spell that for me , please ?
W-Y-A-T-T , Mark Wyatt .
W-Y-A-T-T , Got it . I haven ' t heard of the name . Could you hold on the line when I check .
Next , please .
Here are our passports and tickets .
Let's see . Yes , here are your passports back . Did you pack your luggage yourselves ?
Yes , we did . Just this morning .
Did anyone approach you to ask you to carry anything for them ?
No , sir . We left directly from the hostel .
Are these four pieces all your luggage ?
Yes . Oh ! And these two carry-ons .
You'd better attach these stickers to your carry-ons .
Right . Thanks .
Here are your baggage claim stubs , miss . And here are your boarding passes . Your seats are 29K and 29J . Your flight leaves at Gate 7 , and we'll be boarding in about an hour and a half .
Thanks .
Lisa , I ' Ve been thinking of something .
What is it ?
Well . I ' Ve done a lot of business for my company . And now I feel like going into business for myself .
Do you mean you want to sell up your company of your own ?
There ' s a possibility . What do you say ?
You know John ?
Which John ? Mr . Turnbow ' s son ?
Yes . I ' Ve read news about him in today ' s paper .
And he ' s bright and intelligent . I ' m sure he can pass the university entrance exam .
I wish he could too .
How ' s your boy , Jack ?
He ' s a bit tired , you know . It often takes him a couple of hours to brush up .
Poor boys ! They work harder at school nowadays , don ' t they ?
Good afternoon , ABC Incorporated . How many I direct your call ?
I would like to speak to Mr . Miles .

Is she really ?
Yes , she is . And guess what , he is her sixth husband .
Thank you for coming to see me off .
Not at all .
If I have time , I will come again .
You are welcome at any time .
Thank you for your hospitality . I hope I didn ' t cause you too much trouble during my stay .
You are most welcome .
I ' m afraid I have to go now . The plane will take off soon .
Thank you so much . I can't take this .
She will insist . It's a rosary . She has millions of them . Take it .
What did she mean just now about raising pigs ?
Oh ! My grandmother used to say " raising pigs , raising kids ... at least you can eat the pigs . "
Ha-ha . I get it . That's funny . Your cousin's a real sarcastic lady .
Jenny , do you want to go to see a movie ?
What's on tonight ?
I want to see ' Click . '
Who is in this movie ?
I'm sorry , your visa has expired .
What ? You're kidding ! Let me see that ... There must be some mistakes .
I'm afraid you'll need to have your visa extended before we can have you check in .
I like your sweater . It suits you very well .
Thank you for saying that . It's a present from my girlfriend .
Are you ready to order ?
Yes , I ' ll have the Texas chili burger .
Would you like fries with that ?
A large , with tons of ketchup .
And to drink ?
I ' ll have a diet coke , please .
Is this dine-in or take-out ?
Hello , Sir . Can I help you with anything ?
Yes , I would like to use the ATM to make a payment . But I need to pay 3 parties at once .
No problem at all . With this service , you can pay up to 10 parties at one time . Are these parties on your current beneficiaries list ?
They are , yes . How should I do this ?
Select ' pay multiple beneficiaries ' , here ... then select ' pay from the account ' in the drop down menu ... OK , good . Then we need to enter the beneficiary statement reference .
Yes , I've got that here ...
So Dick , how about getting some coffee for tonight ?
Coffee ? I don ' t honestly like that kind of stuff .
Come on , you can at least try a little , besides your cigarette .
What ' s wrong with that ? Cigarette is the thing I go crazy for .
What does Human Resources Department do ?
Hiring , firing , training , insurances , benefits , retirement plans , salary , vacation .
They take care of a lot of things .
But most of time , they provide assistances .
What do you mean ?
Say if the Engineering Department wants to hire a person , they will request HR to find candidates .
Yes ?
The Engineering Manager and his team will interview the candidates . HR will also be involved with the interview , but basically arranging the schedule and explaining the benefits .
OK .
Then the Engineering Manager will choose the candidate .
Hello . Can I speak to Kevin , please ?
This is Kevin .
My name is Joan Harris . I ' m calling from St . Johns Hospital . Are you still interested in a job as a service technician ?
Yes .
I have good news for you . You ' Ve got an interview . Can you come to the Human Resources Office on Thursday at 9 30 am ?
wow ! That ' s great . Sure , I can . Where is the Human Resources Office ?
345 Stony Creek Avenue .
Thank you very much . I ' ll be there on time .
Are you going to the cafeteria downstairs ?
Yes .
Could you please get me a takeaway ? I have some urgent work to finish . So I don ' t have enough time to go out for lunch .
No problem . What should I bring ?
I am sorry to say this , but I seem to have lost the key to the safe .
Where do you think you lost it ? Outside the hotel ?
Yes , I believe so . How should I compensate for this ?
I'm afraid , ma'am , you have to pay U . S . $ 100 since you lost the key .
What ! One hundred U . S . dollars . Is it covered by the insurance ?
Hello , Mr . Jones .
Hello , Miss Wu .
Long time no see . How is everything at home ?
Pretty good , thank you . And you ?
OK , thanks . Anything I can do for you ?
I need to remit £ 500 to London .
Yes , sir . Would you like to remit it by M / T or by T / T ?
T / T , please .
Have you found a new job yet ?
No , not yet . I ' m still looking . I ' Ve been doing some work through a temp-agency though .
What kind of work ?
I ' m temping at a pharmaceutical company .
What do you do there ?
Mostly office work - filing and so on .
How long is the assignment ?
What did you learn at the workshop you went to yesterday ? Do you think it was worth the investment to go ?
Yeah , I really got a lot of the session . The workshop topic was resolving personal problems . It was led by a professional human resources director . The teacher had a lot of experience , and I think we were all given a really good base to start with .
The workshop was only one afternoon long , do you really think you can learn that much in only a couple of hours ?
It depends on the topic , the teacher , and the way the course is set up . Yesterday , even though we only had a short time to discuss the issues , the workshop got us all thinking . We learned some very basic , but very useful methods of dealing with personnel issues .
Sounds like you really learned a lot .
Great ! I landed on Classic Movies .
I didn't know you liked old movies .
I love them , especially the all-time greats like Gone With the Wind .
You're so right ! Today's movies are just too commercial !
You ' re going to set up your own law office , aren ' t you ?
Yes . After so many years of hard work , I ' d rather I had an office of my own .
If you need help , don ' t hesitate to ask me .
I ' ll be very glad if you would help .
I ' d like to wish you every success in your new venture .
Thank you . I wish I would .
We're having trouble with Bob .
What's the problem ?
He's been late for work twice .
OK , Nick . Here's the question , What movie and its sequel both won an Oscar for Best Picture ?
The Godfather and The Godfather II , of course . They were both directed by Francis Ford Coppola .
Whew ! I'm impressed ! You really know your stuff !
Bonjour !
What ?
I said , Bonjour !
What ' s wrong with you , Ted ?
I ' m speaking French . Don ' t you know anything ?
What ' s wrong with speaking English ?
Well , I just got back from my language school . We have to speak French all day there . No English allowed !
What are you doing that for ?
I ' m trying to learn new skills . It makes me more qualified for a good job .
Look at these gorgeous paintings !
They are beautiful .
Why not take a picture ?
Jenny , are you having fun here ?
Yes , of course . This is really a nice party with wonderful people and lovely wines .
I ' m glad you ' re enjoying it .
Thank you for the invitation .
It ' s my pleasure . Would you like another glass of champagne ?
About my driving test , did I do well ?
You did a fabulous job .
Are you telling me that I passed the test ?
That's what I'm telling you .
What did I mess up on ?
You did mess up a little on one thing .
Tell me .
You had a little trouble on your parallel parking .
That's not easy for me .
That's something that you really need to work on .
Am I still going to get my license ?
What can I do for you , sir ?
I want to have a bath .
Do you want to have a tub bath , surfing bath or shower ?
Shower , please .
All right . The fitting room is over there .
How much should I pay ?
Who's that tall guy over there ?
Oh , that's George . He looks very drunk .
What's he like normally ?
Oh , he's really reserved , normally . But , from what I hear , he's got lots of problems .
Really ? What kind of problems ?
Well , off the record , of course , but I hear that he's got terrible debts . He has his own company , and it's not going very well .
Really ? Well , I hate to say this , but I'm not surprised .
Really ? What makes you say that ?
Well , he doesn't look very honest .
I know , that's the problem . He can't find any customers . It's a pity , really , because his products are very good . Oh , that reminds me . Did I tell you about my new laptop ?
Oh , don't talk to me about laptops . Mine crashed on Friday and I lost everything . I hate them .
Oh , really ?
Look , I need another drink . Do you want one ?
Yes , I'll have another cocktail .
Vodka martini ?
Absolutely .
I'll be back in a sec .
Are you introverted or extroverted ?
I wouldn't call myself introverted . Sometimes I enjoy being by myself very much . But other times I like sharing activities with others too .
What kind of personality do you think you have ?
Well , I approach things very enthusiastically , I think , and I don ' t like to leave something half-done . It makes me nervous . I can ' t concentrate on something else until the first thing is finished .
What do you think is the most important thing for you to be happy ?
For me , this would be having good relationships with my family members . My family has always been very close knit , and we still spend a lot of time together .
What basic principles do you apply to your life ?
I have to find a living room set .
Where are you planning on looking for one ?
I don't know .
I can tell you where I got mine .
Where did you go to find yours ?
IKEA has beautiful furniture .
Does the furniture from IKEA cost a lot ?
The furniture cost a couple thousand dollars .
How good of quality is the furniture ?
It's very sturdy . You get what you pay for .
I don't mind paying for quality workmanship .
Yo , G . How are you getting along with your classmates in the English training school ?
Hey Michelle . Good to see you . Are you at lunch ?
Oh hi Jim . No I just got back . I thought you were on vacation now .
No , I wish I was ! I just got back from Spain actually .
Oh wonderful ! Have you been there before or was it your first time ?
My first time . I've traveled around Europe a lot , but this was my first time to Spain . It was amazing , and the weather was just beautiful ! No rain , and just sun , sun , sun ...
I'm so jealous of you . I've never been anywhere in Europe . I've always dreamed of traveling around and seeing the sights .
Hi , Tony . Haven ' t seen you for a long time . How have you been ?
OK , I ' Ve been looking for a job for days , and I haven ' t found one yet . It's so hard finding work these days . Have you had any luck ?
Yes , I've got a job , a waiter's job in a restaurant .
Are you well paid ?
Well , $ 10 per hour , but I can keep the tips . That comes to roughly $ 80 every evening
Not bad .
Actually , there's still another opening . If you are interested , you ' ll surely get it .
That ' s great ! I ' ll go there right now and speak with the boss .
There ' s no rush . You can see him tomorrow . I ' Ve told him about you . He promised to give you the job .
That was nice of you , Susan . Thanks a lot .
Think nothing of it , Tony . I ' m sure you ' d do the same for me .
Could you tell me a bit more about the work there ? I mean , those dos and don'ts . I am a green hand , you know .
First of all , you must be punctual . You should be there before 6 p . m . so that you will have half an hour for preparation changing clothes and things like that . Then , remember you should smile . Smile to your customers all the time . Never pull a long face even If you feel awful that day . Anything else ? Oh , yes . Never argue with your boss . Learn to say ' Yes , sir . '
Be a yes-man , you mean ?
You may put it that way if you like . Don ' t worry . You ' ll have no problem .
And lots of Dear Abby sob stories ...
Hey ! I learn a lot from the psychologists who give advice in those columns !
No wonder you're such a wacko ...
Whatever ... Smell ! Perfume samples !
Nice . Hey , I like the layout of this page ...
Hello , jewelry department . How may I help you ?
It's me , Ali . There's this strange guy who keeps coming around . He's been here three times this week .
He's probably a pervert . Just ignore him .
He makes me nervous . He looks at me funny . And he never buys anything !
Excuse me , Is there a hotel nearby ?
The nearest one is about ten minutes ' walk from here .
how can I get there ?
I have been washing the dishes for over a week now .
Well , I think you are very good at doing the dishes , so maybe you should do them for another week .
No . We made an agreement that we would take turns doing the dishes . Now it's your turn to do them .
He told the police that Ted was the murderer .
He is playing hob with the fact .
Why do you say so ?
Good afternoon , how can I be of service today ?
My company wants to become involved in your Comprehensive Credit Granting . We are a very young company and I'm not at all sure if we meet your credit requirements .
It is possible to take into account special circumstances , should the manager agree to it . If your credit rating has been class A in your initial trading period and your debt to asset ratio is sound , and then I'm sure the manager will see you to discuss it further . I'll set up a meeting for you .
Oh dear , my weight has gone up again .
I am not surprised , you eat too much .
And I suppose sitting at the desk all day at the office doesn't help .
No , I wouldn't think so .
I do wish I could lose weight .
Well , why don't you go on a diet ?
I've tried diets before but they've never worked .
Perhaps you should excercise more . Why don't you go to an exercise class .
Fastback Travel . How can I help you ?
Could you put me through to Dan Aykroyd ?
He's on holiday for the week , I'm afraid . Can I help ?
Could you leave him a message ?
Sure .
Could you tell him that Horst Weissmuller phoned .
You'd better spell that !
Of course . It's H , O , R , S , T , then W , E , I , S , S , M , U umlaut , L , L , E , R .
Right , I think I've got that . OK , what's the message ?
Just tell him I'll call him when I get back from Australia . That's it .
OK , will do . Bye .
Is my hair done yet ?
Yeah , I just need to make the final touches .
How long until you're finished ?
I'm finished . What do you think ?
I like my hair so much .
Do you really ?
It's beautiful .
Well , thank you very much .
How much is it for my hair ?
You owe me $ 55 .
Thanks for everything .
Could I meet with you to discuss the project ?
Good idea . We could meet on Monday or Tuesday . Which day would you prefer ?
Tuesday would be good for me .
OK . Do you think we should meet in the morning or in the afternoon ?
I think the afternoon would be best .
That will work out . I will e-mail the exact time tomorrow . I need you to bring your plans with you .
Yes , I will bring my plans with me to the meeting .
Should we invite the whole committee or should we just have the sub-committee there ?
I feel that the whole committee needs to be there .
Yes , I agree . We'll make sure that they get notified . Can you find the meeting place ?
Yes , I know how to get there on my own .
Three twenty-five cent stamps , please .
Here you are . seventy-five cent , please .
And please sent this letter by registered mail .
Is there anything valuable in it ?
There ' s a check of two hundred dollars and photograph .
Shall I make out a receipt ?
No . don ' t bother .
I heard that janet has got a new job . She ' s working for the united investment group . I hear that they pay very well .
I heard that too . She must be making a pocket . Well , good for her .
now , she ' ll be able to save up for that holiday in the united states .
yes , she will . At the moment , the exchange rate is very favorable , so she should try to go as soon as possible , while it ' s cheaper .
you ' re right . By the way , did you hear that tom inherited some money recently ?
really ? I thought his parents had died several years ago .
they did . He inherited the money form an uncle . I hope he doesn ' t lose a lot of it in taxed to the government .
dying can be very expensive nowadays ! What ' s he going to do with it ?
he said that he would probably invest most of it . He ' s got a well-paid job , so he doesn ' t need the money to cover day-to day expenses . He just wants some extra money available for when he retires .
I had some good financial news yesterday too .
really ? Have you won a fortune in the lottery ?
no , but I got a pay rise of 5 % and a hours for all the hard work I ' Ve put in recently . I think it was very nice for my boss to show his appreciation in that way .
I ' m looking forward to relaxing this coming weekend .
I hope that I can finally find free time too . I ' Ve been so busy at work recently .
How might you spend the weekend .
I hope to do a little gardening . I find it very relaxing .
I might do that too . I hope the weather is nice . I could go and play some golf .
I heard that the weather should be good . There ' s a possibility of a shower , but it ' s not very likely .
Hopefully , we ' ll both have relaxing weekends .
Of course , something could come up and stop that wish coming true .
Will you send the letter to the chairman of the committee ?
I should be most delighted .
Thank you , Mr . White .
it's a lovely day , isn't it ?
yeah , and most excitingly , I met the girl living under me today . She's really nice .
is she American ?
yeah , and most importantly , she's single ! Man , I could tell from the moment I saw her , she's the girl of my dreams !
so I take it you two are hitting it off ? I know it's very convenient to be in a relationship with your neighbor , but what if you break up ?
I don't know . I am not really worried about that . I don't wanna lose before even starting . Besides I think the other two American guys have also fallen for her .
sounds like you've got some competition . You made a move already ?
not yet . But I am thinking of inviting her to dinner sometime . I know some good restaurants nearby .
that's nice . Having been here a little while surely gives you the advantage , eh ?
you bet . Now that you mentioned it , I think I'll call her now and see if she is available tonight .
good luck !
Welcome , sir . May I help you ?
Yes , I wanna go to America for my vacation .
No problem . Actually , we have some great packages . The most exciting season of Hawaii is now . How about a relaxing vacation in Hawaii ?
Sounds good . Are there any group tours I can go with ?
Yes . There will be one at the end of this month . For many people , a Hawaiian vacation promises languid days filled with sunbathing and poolside cocktails . For others , it ' s all about non-stop action in one of the world's most extreme natural playgrounds . Whether you are in search of quiet relaxation or unbridled stimulation , Hawaii gives you the best of both .
Great . So how long is the trip ?
15 days . The transportation by air will take five days .
Fine . I happen to have 20 days for holiday , so exciting ! How many places will be visited and what are they ? Where will be staying and how about the food there ?
Sir , let's do it step by step . First , we will visit over 25 different places . Most of the places are in Hawaii ' s Big Island . We will stay in Arlott ' s Lodge
Well , cool . What's the price for this trip ?
Well , right now there's a special rate for 40,000 RIB for this package , including everything such as airline ticket , tour guides , hotels and food . All you have to do is to sign up and we will take care of everything .
Well . 40,000 RIB that's really a lot of money . I will have to think about it .
Sure . By the way , this special price is only good through the end of the week .
Is it Thursday ? I mean if I let the chance slide ...
Yes , sir . It will be a great pity !
Well . Ok , I will take it .
Here we are , Room 215 .
It is very nice .
The telephone is by the end . Dial 0 for reception .
Can I order room service ?
Yes , here's the menu . You can order from reception .
Good .
This is your mini bar . It contains alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks and also a few snacks . Anything you use will be added to your bill . The price list is by your bed .
OK . thanks .
Excuse me , I'm a little lost . Which bus do I take to get to Shi Da ?
Let's see . From here , you have to take the 278bus .
Oh ok , where do I get off ?
You should get off at the first Shi Da stop .
Ok , thanks ...
You're new at this , huh ?
No , is it difficult ?
No , it's quite simple . When you get on , just ask the bus driver when to pay the fare and where you want to get off .
How much does it cost ?
Only 15 NT per section . Oh look , that is your bus .
Wow , I can't thank you enough .
who is your favorite NBA star ?
Kobe Bryant , of course .
Kobe ? I know him , the key guy of the Lakers , a heck of a NBA player . He is on fire when he breaks through enemy defense .
He is competent both in driving the lane and shooting jumpers , but what really makes him formidable is his ability to switch up and dribble with his left hand .
Maybe he is not good ay rebounding ?
indeed , no man can be perfect . He is just so-so in crashing the boards . Usually he plays shooting guard . Rebounding might not be his strong suit .
Kobe came to Beijing during this summer's Olympics . Did you go to the match between China and USA ?
who wouldn't ! My friend Lee went so far as to get an autograph from him .
well then , what are your spoils ?
What's your favorite sport ?
Swimming . What about you ?
I'd like to pick up my package .
Here is the notice .
Could you show me your ID , Please ?
Sure , here you are .
Where can I enjoy the best local food ?
Well ! You like sea food ?
Yes , I do .
Then I'd like to suggest you try Anchor Inn on Seaside Drive .
Is it very far from here ?
I really appreciate your driving me around .
It's no problem . I have time today , and I think it's important that you find a good place .
It would be hard for just me to do it . I don't know the city at all .
So what do you see in there ?
This one sounds good . Efficiency with view of the lake . Utilities and parking included . Newly remodeled kitchen . $ 470 .
Can you afford that much ?
No , I guess not . But that's what I want , isn't it ? An efficiency .
Yes , an efficiency is a small apartment . Usually one large room and a small bathroom . There is often a small kitchen too . So it's good for one person .
How about this one ? Downtown efficiency . Furnished ... What does furnished mean ?
That means the apartment has furniture in it .
That's good .
Sometimes it's good , sometimes it's bad . You have to like the furniture .
Furnished . Parking included . $ 400 .
It's still pretty expensive .
Yes , but it's downtown . I would like to take look at this one .
Alright . What's the phone number ?
256-7797 .
Got it . What else do you see ?
This one . Two male grad students seeking roommate . Must be quiet . Comfortable downtown apartment . Does this mean I have to share a room with them ?
No . It probably means they have a large apartment . Probably a living room , kitchen and three bedrooms . They need someone for the empty bedroom .
That sounds alright .
Yes , it might be an advantage for you . You are a foreigner , after all . If they're alright roommates , you could learn a lot from them .
Here's the number , 256-4367 .
Got it . Let ' s call these two and see if we can make appointments to see the apartments .
Sounds good to me . I really appreciate your help on this .
What a mess , Jack !
I ' m playing with my toys , Dad .
May I speak to Marry Lin please ?
I'm sorry Marry is out right now .
When will she be back ?
What ' s your city like ?
It ' s quite an interesting place to live . The best thing to do in my city is go shopping . There are several indoor and outdoor markets , department stores and shopping malls .
Is the traffic bad in the city centre ?
Not really . Cars are not permitted in several parts of city centre , especially in the main shopping areas . The public transport system is pretty good .
What about restaurants and entertainment ?
There are restaurants with food from all over the world . We have a small china-town near the city centre . There are many Indian , Thai , and Italian restaurants all over the city centre . There are many sports events in my city . We have several sports venues for football , rugby , and cricket-even ice-skating and ice hockey .
Is there a lot of nightlife in your city ?
There are several good clubs near the city centre . Many people in my city prefer something more ' cultural " , so we several theatres and venues for classical music concerts and operas .
It sounds like a really exciting city to live in .
Did you watch the Premiership last night ?
Yes , I watched United play Chelsea . What a fierce battle ! allay were engaged in intensive pressing and tackling in midfield . Well , it was not like a normal English League match .
No , it wasn't . Rather , it looked like a Bundesliga match , where physical contact is so frequent . English League teams are apt to pass the midfield quickly with long passes . It seems to me English soccer players are very gentlemanly . As Diego Maradona spoke teasingly , they often knew only chasing hard after the ball , but forgot to steal it .
Haha . That's probably why slide tackle and fouls are less common , and offsides more frequent in English League matches than those on the Continent . And the ball is often kept flying overhead , drawing beautiful curves in the sky . Such games are quite pleasing to the eye .
Which team do you back then ?
I'm a firm United supporter . I like their playing style . The Reds always have several excellent wing-backs , Like Riggs , Peckham and Gary Neville . They often make wonderful crosses when they assist in attacking .
Mr . Black ? I'm from the Pacific Mechanical Company .
Oh , yes . Step inside , will you ? I'll give you an idea of what business I want to take up with you . Take a seat . We can go into details later .
Thank you .
Our speciality back in South Africa is wholesale supplying of screws , bolts , nuts , pins , studs , and that kind of things .
For wood or for metal ?
For both . Now , do you make machines for producing such things ?
Yes , we have a showroom not far away from here , Mr . Black . Are you free now ?
Yes , quite free until noon .
Fine . Then , shall we go right away ? I have a car outside .
Have you ? That's splendid . Just let me get my things together . I won't keep you long .
Hello . I want to purchase an old music box .
We have a good variety . What decade would you like ?
I was hoping I could find something made in the ' 20s .
There are six on this table .
I hope at least one of them has dancing figures .
Many people like the dancing figures . Two of our boxes have the figures .
So hard to choose . I think I'll take this one .
That one will bring you many hours of pleasure .
Does a warranty come with this music box ?
I'm sorry , but if it breaks down , you're on your own .
I just thought I would ask .
Can I help you ?
I'm looking for a Sharp DVD Player .
Sure . Any particular model ?
Yes . The DS102 series .
Oh , I'm afraid we've sold out of those . They were really popular .
Will you be getting more in .
I don't think much of the film .
But I think it wasn't too bad .
Really ? Do you like the story ? It's sheer nonsense !
Welcome to IBA . What can we assist you with today ?
Hello . Yes , I've just read your leaflet about the new MoneyLink Card . I was wondering how I go about applying for one .
This scheme has just started and you will be one of our first 100 customers , so if your application is accepted , you will receive some rather nice perks .
That does sound good . I'm already an account holder , have been for many years . And I already have your existing card .
That should make things perfectly simple , then . Actually , if you had waited a little while longer , we would have notified you by post .
Perhaps your letter is already in the mail ! So , I can just upgrade automatically ?
May I have your details , and I'll check for you .
Certainly ...
OK , so you are already a gold card holder , with a sound credit history . That means we can automatically upgrade you to our new platinum card .
Good afternoon , Mr . Yang . I'm Jill , Mr . Smith's secretary . Would you like to look around the factory first ?
Yes , I would .
Now this is our office block . We have all the administrative departments Sales , Accounting , Personnel , Market Research and so on .
What's that building opposite us ?
That's the warehouse where the larger items of medical instruments are stored . We keep a stock of the fast-moving items so that urgent orders can be met quickly from stock . ( in the workshop ) This is one of our three workshops . This is the delivery bay here .
Oh , I see .
The steel sheets and bars come in , as you see , in different sizes and are unloaded onto the delivery bay here . We buy them in from a steel works in Wales . This is the new conveyor belt we installed last year . We doubled our output in this department as a result .
Oh , really ?
Do you have any questions ?
Tell me about fees .
What fees are you referring to ?
I want to know about overdraft fees .
We charge a small fee every time you overdraft .
How much ?
For each time you overdraft , you have to pay $ 25 .
That ' s not a small fee .
You shouldn ' t overdraft .
That ' s for sure .
Do you need help with anything else ?
Where is Tom ?
He is in the bedroom and fallen asleep .
What ? It ' s only 9 p . m . Now . Why today he went to bed so early ?
He ran four miles and came back dead beat .
Good morning . Venus Real Estate Agency .
Good morning . I'm calling to ask if you have a vacant apartment .
Do you have any particular type of apartment in mind ?
I prefer a one-bedroom apartment .
Are you renting it alone or with company ?
I'll share it with one of my friends . What ' s in a one-bedroom apartment ?
A one-bedroom apartment has one bedroom , a living room , a kitchen and a bathroom .
Is there any furniture ?
No , but a fridge and a stove .
It sounds wonderful . Do I have to sign a lease ? How much should I pay ?
Yes , it ' s a one-year lease . And $ 200 a week with one month refundable deposit .
When can I come over ?
Would Friday morning be alright ?
OK . Good-bye .
Good morning , miss .
Good morning , sir .
Could you tell me please where can I find a currents exchange ?
Right here , how can i help you today , sir ?
I'd like to exchange 5000 Singapore dollars into the US dollars please .
Do you have an account this bank , sir ?
Yes , here is my account number .
May i please see ID ?
Sure , here is my passport , by the way what is the rate today ?
Today's rate is 2 . 57 Singapore dollars for 1 US dollar , here is your money , sir . Please count it and sign your name here .
Yes , it is the credit demand . Where can I cash travellers ' cheques ?
You can cash them here , how much do you want to cash ?
900 dollars .
How would you like it ?
I need 8 hundreds and the rest in 10s please ?
Ok , here you are .
Thank you , have a nice day .
I'm worried sick that she might leave me one day .
I'll teach you how to keep her .
Tell me , please .
Pardon me . Could you please pass me the tissue ?
Sure , here you are .
Thanks , I didn't expect the dish to be so spicy . Are you ok ?
Yeah , I think the food is alright , it's not too spicy though it's a little salty for me . But you are Chinese , you should have known better .
Well , not every Chinese can handle spicy food in the way people from Sichuan and Guizhou provinces can . Back where I come from , people don't eat a lot of papers and chilies .
Oh , I see how this food can be really hard for you . I can sympathize with that . I stayed in Sichuan for a year . The food was difficult at the beginning . Every dish was so spicy . After a while though , I got used to the taste , and now I won't consider anything a real dish if it isn't spicy .
Yeah , you can increase you tolerance for spicy food , but so far , I haven't had the need or the opportunity . Every time I try spicy food , it is a total disaster for my nose and eyes .
I completely understand . I didn't intend on liking spicy food at first either , but when you have no other choices , you've got to adapt .
Yeah , I guess that's a typical example of ' when in Rome , do as the Romans do . '
Two number 3s , please .
All right . What would you like to drink ?
Diet Coke .
Regular or large ?
Regular , please .
OK . Anything else ?
No , thanks .
For here or to go ?
Can you finish your homework in ten minutes ?
I would like to buy one round trip plane ticket to Hong Kong , please .
For what days , madam ?
Leaving on September 5th and returning to New York City on October 9th .
Do you prefer an aisle or a window seat ?
I prefer to sit next to a window .
How would like to pay ?
I have a Master Card .
He was once a poor man but now he is a man of means .
How did he make a fortune ?
How do you know ? I thought Taiwanese people didn't have garage sales .
You're right . We're not really into used stuff .
Well , I've grown to like second-hand things . I wouldn't have gotten through university without them !
There aren't many places that sell used things in Taiwan , besides auction websites .
I use those sites . Hey ! Let's go check out a flea market later .
Daniel , have you finished your homework ?
Not yet , Dad . I am watching Ultraman instead . No , no , Dad . Please . This program is on only once a week .
Daniel , as a matter of fact , TV is bad for your health .
What makes you think that ?
It's full of violence and you are so young .
But there are cartoons on TV . Bees , big trees , seas , and a lot of other interesting things .
Wait . What's the time , honey ?
About 6 .
It's homework time now . Go and do your homework and then go to bed . American Idol , There you go .
Let's get together this weekend , is that all right ?
Sounds good , when ?
When is it convenient for you ?
Any time is fine .
Could you and your wife be ready at nine o'clock ?
Please wait for us even if we're a little late .
Never mind . I'll be waiting for you .
See you then .
What are you doing this weekend ?
Are you a social person ?
Yes , I am an outgoing person who likes to be with a lot of friends .
What is your strategy in communicating with colleagues ?
Thank you for showing me your offices , Mr . Becker . I can see why Washington bureaucrats enjoy their jobs .
Why do you say that ?
The city is beautiful , the off ... , the offices are modern and comfortable , and the work is so interesting .
Many people work for the federal government their entire adult lives . Government service can be a rewarding and secure career .
Do you mean financially rewarding ?
Well , many positions pay salaries that are comparable to those in private industries .
I ' Ve always thought that most bureaucrats are lazy .
Sometimes that ' s true , but not usually . Most feds are honest , hard-working professionals . It ' s hard to keep highly trained people , so the pay and working conditions have to be attractive .
How much do you make ?
Hello . Can I help you ?
Hello . Is my laundry ready ? My room number is 210 .
I'm afraid it is still being washed .
Can you take the stain off ?
Yes , we can . But you need wait a moment .
That's right . Can I get it back in the afternoon ? I really need them tonight .
Yes , it will be ready then .
OK . By the way , please get them pressed .
How do I know if I qualify for unemployment benefits ?
Are you working fewer hours than you used to work ?
I got laid off .
You usually qualify if you got laid off or are working a lot fewer hours .
Do all jobs provide unemployment ?
Most jobs provide unemployment , but some don ' t .
Do you think that my job pays unemployment ?
You can call your unemployment office , and they can check for you .
Will I be able to collect a lot of money on unemployment ?
Would you like to have some more wine ?
Sure . thanks .
Beijing Hotel . May I help you ?
Yes . I'd like to book a double room with bath .
For what time , sir ?
I plan to arrive on August fifth and leave on August eighth .
From August fifth to eighth . Just a moment . Yes , we have a vacancy for that period . What's your name , please ?
Li Gang .
That's OK , Mr . Li , a double room with bath from the fifth of August to the eighth .
That's right .
By the way , how do you like to pay for it ? This hotel prefers cash .
I see . When can I receive your confirmation ?
Not until you have paid 10 percent margin .
I'll log in to the Internet to know about you . I know your address .
I am having some plumbing problems and need them fixed .
What exactly is wrong with the plumbing ?
The toilet flushes really slowly .
Are there any problems with the plumbing in the kitchen ?
Both the kitchen and the bathroom plumbing are messed up .
How long have you had these problems ?
It has been going on for a while , but just started to get worse this morning .
I will send someone out to take a look at the problem . Will you be home this afternoon ?
Yes , I will be home this afternoon .
Are you ready , honey ?
Sorry , not yet ! can you help me to select the dress ? i don , t what i should wear to fit thinner party .
Just dress formal .
How about transom ?
It is too loud , we ' ll handle some official business first before the dinner .
Oh , i nearly forget it .
I don ' t understand why you always look so happy , so energetic . It seems like you ' Ve got good news everyday .
Really ? Do I look happy all the time ?
All I know is you look quite differently from other teachers .
Oh , do you know why ? Actually , it ' s easy . Because I always exercise . My exercise , I think , is very hard . I often feel very good after conquering these difficulties . I feel alive !
Oh , I know . I saw you doing pull-ups one time on the campus 5 and some students trying to imitate you .
Yeah , they are doing it for fun . Seldom would people like my exercise . It ' s difficult and boring .
It ' s true . Many students do the exercise when they have to . We have P . E . once a week .
But I think Chinese students need to exercise more . Besides exercise will help them learn new things better . Don ' t students want to have a good memory ?
Of course . I didn ' t know that . I only know exercise makes bodies stronger . I should take some exercise then . Do you have any suggestions ?
Well , do what you like to do . It can be anything . Jogging , doing aerobics , going bicycling , and playing ping-pong . Absolutely anything . Doing three or more workouts a week is good for you . But remember to do some stretches first .
You've met her before , haven't you ?
Do you believe that classified ads in the newspaper are the most effective way to search for a job ?
No , I don't think so . I think the Internet would be better .
OK , but I am going to look at the want ads in this newspaper first .
I'm taking a date to a restaurant , so could you please direct me to a good one ?
But of course ! How much are you thinking of spending on dinner ?
She deserves nothing but the best , of course .
In that case , I would suggest our own hotel restaurant . The chef , the food , and the service are outstanding .
I promised her I would take her out to a restaurant . Do you have another one in mind ?
You can always go to Gramercy Tavern . It's quite popular , despite its expensive entrees .
Great food and lots of patrons ? What more could I want ? Please reserve a table for me .
I'll have sole , then .
All right . How about other guests ?
The rest of us will have this today's special , please .
OK .
I'm sorry but I ordered sole , not the same as the others . Will you change it ?
I'm afraid we have no more sole .
Then , I'll have this pork cute instead .
I haven't received my credit card bill yet .
Which credit card are you speaking of ?
My Master Card .
We sent that bill out a couple of weeks ago .
I never got it .
Your bill was mailed already .
What am I going to do since I haven't received the bill ?
If you haven't gotten it yet , then you should probably take that up with your post office .
Can I get an extension on my bill if it does happen to be the post office's fault ?
If that's the case , you will need to provide proof of their mistake .
Thanks for everything .
Hey , look at my new shirt . What do you think about it ?
Just so-so . Where did you get it ?
I bought it on a street market . A real bargain !
Lucy , come here ! I can see the lake which is in the center of park .
It is beautiful ! Look , there are so many birds around it .
It is a great place for a relaxing vacation .
Listen to the sound of nature ! It's like music .
Yeah , I agree . It makes you feel really good .
What are those ?
Do you mean the red things ? They are roses .
I'm going to take more pictures today .
Could I have my bill , please ?
Certainly , sir .
I'm afraid there has been a mistake .
I'm sorry , sir . What seems to be the trouble ?
I believe you have charged me twice for the same thing . Look , the figure of 6 . 5 dollar appears here , then again here .
Where were you last night , at exactly 920 pm ?
920 pm , I couldn't say . I can't remember .
Are you sure you can't remember ?
I'm absolutely certain .
Were you in or out ? Can you remember that ?
I'm not quite positive . I think I went out at about half pass nine .
Did you see anyone come into the block flats ?
No , I didn't .
Sure ?
Hi , Ann .
Hi . You look excited . What's happening ?
I just heard that our school will hold a singing contest in 5 days .
And you're planning to enter ?
Of course . This is a great chance for me to show off my beautiful voice .
Is there a prize ?
I heard that the winner gets a Panda Radio .
Do you think you have a chance ?
A chance ? Not just a chance , I'm a hundred percent certain . Everyone says my voice is beautiful .
But you haven't practised all that much .
I still have 5 days to practise . It's in the bag !
Don't be too sure . You're still going to need some help .
I need some flowers for my girlfriend .
No problem . Would you like some artificial carnations ?
Oh , no . Carnations are not very elegant . Artificial flowers have no passion .
How much did you want to spend ?
Money is no object .
Our most elegant flower is Golden Lily .
I will take ten .
Do you want to add some baby ' s breath for that ? They are equally popular now .
Of course . Can I have it delivered to my girlfriend's house this afternoon ?
Yes , but there is a five dollars delivery charge .
You look upset , is there anything wrong ?
Yes , to tell you the truth , there is .
What is it ?
Well , I've lost my wallet and my ID card .
Oh , that's too bad ! I am sorry to hear that !
Do you believe in horoscope fortune-telling ?
I used to be an atheist . But in recent months , I couldn't but form a more favorable opinion of horoscope .
That sounds interesting . Have you been involved in any mystery ?
Not exactly , except that I find horoscope predictions increasingly accurate . I came upon a website which sends me an up-dated message by e-mail each day forecasting my experience in detail . It is amazing to find these forecasts largely in line with my daily life .
What did it say about you then ?
For example , the message for the day before yesterday notified me that I , as a Leo guy , was to have some " unusual experience in food and drink . And as it turned out , the reality matched this prediction well . Lasi night , I was treated to a dinner party by Mr . Lee .
But it must have been only a coincidence . That's the only way superstition wins over science .
Oh , no . You can never tell whether such-and-such is science or sheer fraud . If horoscope is really something deceptive , how come quite a size of proportion of young people think highly of it .
Did you call me , sir ?
Yeah . If you are available now , let me describe your work duties , OK ?
What am I expected to do ?
As a newcomer , you are going to be responsible for some basic tasks first , including certain routine duties like answering the telephone and typing . Later , you will be assigned to the Sales Department .
I see . It must be a challenging job , but I would like to do it . And what about now ?
For this is your first day in our company , you can begin with our special products . Before you do your job , it's necessary for you to be familiar with our own products . Sort these papers and file them correctly .
Excuse me , sir , this is the express check-out lane for people that have fifteen items or fewer . It looks like you have more than fifteen items there .
Oh , come on ! I have sixteen items ! Cut me some slack , will ya ?
Fine ! Please place your items on the belt and push your shopping cart through . Do you prefer paper or plastic ?
Plastic . I also have a couple of coupons .
No problem , I ' ll take those . Sir , these coupons expired yesterday .
Darn ! Oh , well . I guess it ' s just not my day . Thanks anyway .
Do you have a club card or will it be cash ?
Yeah I got a club card . Here you go .
Will this be debit or credit ?
Debit please . Also , could I get cash back ? Fifty dollars would be great .
Would you like to go sightseeing tomorrow ?
Not a bad idea !
What would you like to see in Beijing ?
Well , let's see . I'd like to go to the Summer Palace .
Why don ' t you introduce him ? I wonder if we will become good friends .
What are you going to have ?
I'll try a steak sandwich .
Can I get you anything to drink ?
Yes , I'd like a chocolate shake .
Hello , could you arrange a dinner for us ?
Sure , what time ?
Eight o'clock tomorrow evening .
For how many people ?
Ten .
Western food or Chinese food ?
Chinese food .
Do you want an expensive meal ?
No , not too lavish .
How much would you like to spend for each person ?
What is the usual thing here ?
Forty to eighty RIB Yuan a plate .
Let's say sixty Yuan then .
OK . Is there anything special you'd like to have on the menu ?
We'd like to have typical Chinese food .
Anything you'd rather not have ?
No snakes , please .
How about drinks ?
Mao Tai and Qingdao Beer .
Well . Dinner for ten at sixty Yuan a plate , drink's extra , at 8 o'clock tomorrow evening . Is that all right ?
Right , thanks .
My pleasure , see you tomorrow evening .
What is the highest goal of your company ?
The supreme goal of ours is to be in the leadership in marketing .
Well , it is a really high target .
Why didn't you tell me you had a girlfriend ?
Sorry , I thought you knew .
But you should have told me you were in love with her .
Didn't I ?
You know you didn't .
Well , I'm telling you now .
Yes , but you might have told me before .
I didn't think you'd be interested .
You can't be serious . How dare you not tell me you were going to marry her ?
Sorry , I didn't think it mattered .
Do you want to go to the beach tonight ?
Sure , which beach are we going to ?
I wanted to go to Malibu beach .
I like Santa Monica .
The water there looks so dirty .
I just like the pier they have at Santa Monica .
I like the pier too , because it's beautiful at night .
Is Malibu beach nice ?
It's a lot nicer , and I really like it better .
So you want to go to Malibu ?
If that's okay with you .
We're interested in your Drawn Works . What about the supply position ?
For most of the articles in the catalog , we have good supply .
Here's our inquiry list . You'll find the required items , specifications and quantities all there .
Thanks . I'll look into it and let you have our firm offers tomorrow .
I don't need to remind you that the market has become very competitive .
You'll find our prices very favorable .
That's fine . By the way , do you quote FOB or CIF ?
Either can be done , though we usually quote on CIF basis .
Then would you please make your prices CIF including five percent ?
I'd like to reserve two seats for tomorrow night .
Would you like orchestra seats ?
Isn't there anything less expensive ?
Would you like to order now , madam ?
Yes , please . I'd like the steak and mushrooms .
How would you like your steak , rare , medium , or well-done ?
I'd like it well done , please .
What kind of potatoes would like to go with that , mushed , boiled , or baked ?
I think i have bake potatoes . And i now have a ice tea with lemon on the side , please .
Good , and would you care for soup or salad to start with ?
I'd like cream onion soup please .
Will you have desert to be , madam ?
I want to skip desert . That all , thank you .
Hello Mary . I haven ' t seen you for ages . Are you still seeing Paul ?
No . We broke up last month . I ' m taking a break from dating for a while .
Did you break up amicably ? Sometimes couples row a lot before splitting up .
We just decided to stop seeing each other . It was all very amicable . Are you still going out with mike ?
Yes , I am . We ' re thinking about getting engaged . We ' Ve been dating for over a year now .
Good for you ! Have you seen Kelly recently ? Is she still dating nick ?
I havn't seen her for a while . She stopped seeing nick because he was cheating on her . He was seeing a girl form his office . One day , she saw them holding hands and ended the relationship immediately .
She was right to do that . I heard the Neil and Tina getting married soon .
Really ? They ' Ve been together for a long time . When are they getting married ?
I think it ' s 26th September . I ' ll check and make sure that Tina remembers to invite you to the hen night .
Thanks . Hey , look at that guy over there . I think he fancies you .
Hello .
This is Soft , may I speak to Lamely ?
This is Lamely .
Hello , Lamley . Are you free tomorrow ?
Yes .
Would you like to go to an activation with me ?
I'd like to . see you tomorrow .
Excuse me , can you tell me where I can go fishing ?
I like fishing too . I usually fish near the lake .
I want to go fishing today , but I have left my rod and fishing line at home .
Yes , I need more amenities .
By amenities , exactly what do you mean , please ?
You know , the things that are free , like the soap and the shampoo .
Okay , I got it . You've already run out of all your amenities ?
No , I still have plenty left , even if I took three baths a day .
I'm more confused now than before . How is there a problem ?
I need to take home some souvenirs !
Okay , finally I understand . You would like souvenirs !
Yes , souvenirs that I can take home and add to my collection .
If it's souvenirs you want , sir , just visit our souvenir shop . It has everything .
Are you kidding ? Whoever heard of paying for hotel souvenirs ?
I was told that your company had been in the furniture industry for many years . What kinds of products do you generally handle ?
We mostly handle office furniture . We supply first-class furniture . Here are our catalogue and the pattern books . You can see the material is superior and with all the latest styles . Can you give me some idea about what you're looking for ?
You know , we want to totally furnish our new office building . This is a list of what we need . Could you give me a ballpark figure for everything on this list ?
The price varies somewhat according to the size of your order . Would you tell us the quantity you want so that we can work out an offer ?
If the furniture is pleasantly designed and high-quality stuff , we intend to buy several thousand sets .
It's our pleasure to do business with you . We'll let you have the offer next Wednesday at the latest .
How did you get it ?
I found it a garage sale once .
What a find ! So , how much does it cost ?
Well , because I like you ... ninety bucks .
Hello . Is this ABC Rent-a-car Company ?
Yes , speaking . May I help you ?
This morning we rented a car and we are on the way to Niagara Falls . I'm afraid we have a car accident near the border .
That's too bad . What kind of accident is it ? Are you all right ?
I'm all right , but my friend is seriously injured . Will you call an ambulance and the police ?
OK . I'll do it right away , but tell me how it happened .
Excuse me , can you help me figure out how to get to the Wudaokou subway station from here ?
Sure ... first you're going to have to buy a ticket to ride on the subway . The Wudaokou station is on the lightrail , so you'll have to transfer . Be sure you buy a combination ticket for the regular subway and the lightrail . It should cost you 5 yuan .
An after I buy the ticket , where should I go ?
You can take the red line train from here , but you'll have to transfer to the blue line at Fuxingmen transfer station . After you transfer , take the blue line that is heading north towards Fuchengmen .
So I transfer from red to blue , then how long do I ride the blue ?
You'll take the blue line until you reach Xizhimen . That's a big station , so there will likely be a lot of people getting off at that stop . You can transfer to the lightrail there , you'll have to exit the subway and present the unused portion of your combination ticket to the Ticketmaster , they'll give you a new ticket to use on the lightrail system .
It sounds so complicated !
Amy , you don't look so well . What happened ?
Yes . I feel terrible . I have been coughing for the whole morning .
Do you feel anything else ?
Yes . I feel chilly and sluggish .
Have you had similar feelings before ?
No . This is my first Ae abroad . I am not sure what is wrong with me .
Don't worry . I believe you are just not agreeing with the local climate . I will get you some medicine . You will be alright after a good rest .
Why don't we get ourselves a new car ? The old one's falling apart .
What a good idea !
What kind shall we get ?
We could go to more places this time , if you liked .
Yes , fine .
When shall we go and look ?
Why not sometime next week ?
No , let's go on Saturday .
OK .
Where shall we go ?
There's a car dealer down the road . How about going there ?
No , I don't like that place . Why don't we try the garage Martin recommended ?
Look ! It ' s the start of the Olympic Games .
So what ?
You want to watch , don ' t you ?
Not really . I couldn ' t careless about the Olympic Games .
When can you give me the final decision ?
We'll notify you next Thursday at the latest . Shall I telephone you ?
OK .
All right . Thank you for coming today .
Where shall I register , please ?
Here . Do you have a registration card ?
Yes . Here you are .
Please register your information here and pay for it . And I ' ll make a medical record for you .
OK . How much do I need to pay for the registration ?
Please pay ten yuan for the registration .
Here is my money .
This is your registration card . Please don ' t lose it and bring it whenever you come .
Yes , I will . But can you tell me how to get to the consulting room ?
Bob , did you see our supervisor ? I need him to sign this paper .
He is in his office , but you'd better choose your words carefully while talking to him .
What's up ?
Nothing . But he is in a bad mood today .
Thanks for the warning .
What are you going to do with that vase , Penny ?
I ' m going to put it on this table , Sam .
Don ' t do that . Give it to me .
What are you going to do with it ?
I ' m going to put it here , in front of the window .
Be careful . Don ' t drop it ! Don ' t put it there , Sam . Put it here , on this shelf .
There we are ! It ' s a lovely vase .
Didn ' t you punch in this morning , Monica ?
Sorry , I don ' t know the rule about punching .
That ' s ok . I should have told you earlier . This is a company rule .
Do we also need to punch out after work ?
According to the company rule , we should punch in before 8 o ' clock and punch out after 5 o ' clock every work day .
How about the lunch break , Lucy ?
From eleven thirty to 1 o ' clock .
May I ask whether we need to work overtime ?
Bob was late for work this morning .
Has he been late before ?
Yes , once last week .
I'm checking out now . Can I have my bill , please ?
Sure . What's your room number , sir ?
It's 876 . Here is my key card .
A minute , please . It's 6215 yuan all together , tax included .
Can I pay with traveler's check ?
Sure . Can I have your passport , please ?
Can I help you , sir ?
Yes , could you tell me if there is a laundry in this hotel ?
yes , It ' s on the third floor
Thank you very much .
You ' re home late today , David . How was school ?
Not bad . There ' s a new English teacher .
Oh , what ' s she like ?
She is beautiful .
Is she old or young ?
She is quite young and her hair is blond .
Is she strict ?
Not really . Her eyes are blue .
Can she speak Chinese ?
Not much . She is very tall and slim .
Can you work over tonight ?
Sorry , I'm supposed to be with my son .
Okay , I'll ask Bob to cover it .
Do you really think we can beat WebTracker ?
Of course .
How can you be so sure ? Do you know something I don't ?
I have a plan for handling WebTracker . Step one is the Stars . com contract .
What's step two ?
Could we go over some things , because I think my test score is wrong .
What do you think is wrong , the math or the way your answer was scored ?
Both .
I am willing to take a second look because teachers make mistakes , too . Will that work for you ?
Yeah , I'm ready .
Check your answers against the ones on the answer sheet and let me know where you see the mistake .
These look strange .
Yes , I agree ; let's move on to the calculating of the score . Would that be OK ?
OK , let's do the calculation .
We add all of these up and divide by this and that gives us this percentage .
I see .
Which of the two do you think is better ? I mean , what's the difference between them ?
Well ... this one costs more , but it has a much better sound . This part of it is made of wood , not plastic . And there's a tone control , too .
I only want it for the kitchen . I like to listen to the news at breakfast time .
Hmm ... well , the other one is good for the money . It's much cheaper . We sell clot of them and all our customers are satisfied with them .
Hmm ... I'd like the cheaper one , please . Can I pay hy cheque ?
Did you promise me to get the bread ?
Well , I remember walking pass the baker shop .
But you forgot to get the bread .
I'm afraid so . I don't remember you telling me about it .
Well , I certainly did .
What would you let me do now ?
You are free . You can go now .
Really ? You are so kind .
I'll do with the cake .
How ' s your father ?
He ' s fine . He retired last week . It ' s turning point in his life . Now he can relax and enjoy his retirement .
He can spend more time with his grandchildren .
Oh , I don ' t think he wants to . He wants to travel to several different countries around the world .
So , he wants to have a more active retirement . Good idea !
How do you want to spend your old age ?
Look , there are some words on the fish .
I know that they are auspicious fish . It's quite popular nowadays .
For God's sake ! It's too bloody . How can people be so cruel ?
Not at all . I think the tattoos are so cool and chic .
You can't prick the fish to please the sick tastes of some bloody people .
Honey , it's not so serious . It's just an animal .
Just an animal ? But it has life too . If you want a tattoo , get one . It's your choice because you want it . But has anyone asked the fish if it wanted one ?
How do I know if there is a vacancy in a company ?
Easy . View the home page of the company , and see if they need staff . Many websites offer two-way service , such as job-hunting and talent hunting .
Which websites are most popular ?
Hi Mike . What have you been up to ?
Not much . I started exercising .
Trying to get in shape ?
Yeah , and I need to start improving my health .
Me too . What are you doing besides exercising ?
That's about all .
I think if you eat better , it will help tremendously .
Sleep is good too . I heard people who sleep an average of eight hours a day have less health problems .
Looks like there are a lot of things to do to stay healthy .
OK , Tom . It's your turn . Are you ready ?
I really would rather just listen . Isn't there anyone else who wants to sing ?
Come on ! In the two hours we've been here , you haven't sung even one song !
I know , but ... Hey , Jim's here ! I've been waiting to hear him sing all night .
Well , you asked for it . Why don't you put on an Elvis song for him ? He loves ' The King ' .
Can you hold the end of this tape measure ?
Sure . What's this for ?
I ' m taking some measurements for new curtains .
What about measuring the floor for a new carpet , and the walls for new wallpaper ?
I thought we'll just fix up the wood floor . and use some paint for the walls .
Good idea . I was thinking the same myself .
How much tea are you going to order ?
We want to order 3,000 cases and hope to deliver the goods in two equal lots .
When do you want to deliver the goods ?
We'd like you to execute the first delivery by June 30 and the second delivery by August 15 .
I'm sorry , but June 30 is quite soon . I can't guarantee 1 500 cases , I'd prefer the first shipment to be 1,000 cases and the next 2,000 cases .
I can agree to that .
Let me affirm this again - the first shipment of 1,000 cases , to be delivered in 27 days , by June 30 , and the second shipment of 2,000 cases by August 15 . Right ?
Right .
Well , if there's nothing else , I think we've settled everything .
You talked like the Terminator for two months ? Wow , I think you liked that movie even more than I liked ' Titanic . ' Why did you like ' Terminator ' so much ?
Well , ' Terminator ' is a really great action movie , and I like action movies because they're exciting .
Isn't ' Terminator ' really violent ? I usually don't like gory movies because they gross me out .
It is pretty violent , but since it's just robots fighting one another , it isn't very bloody and so it won't gross you out .
Why do you want to be a stewardess ?
I have always enjoyed flying . And I am good with people .
Could you handle flying for 24 hours straight ?
Yes , I can adjust to anything .
That's good .
I am also calm under pressure and trained in first aid .
You should very qualified .
I'm trying to reach Robert please .
Robert is not available at the moment .
What time should I call back ?
Could I see the manager please ? I have a complaint to make .
Yes , I ' m the manager here . What can I do for you , Madam ?
Did you have the room checked before we move in ?
Which room are you in ?
1808 . The toilet doesn ' t work properly , the water doesn ' t run in the shower .
May I see your airplane ticket , passport and health certificate please ?
Here you are .
Will you please put your luggage on the scale ?
I want to check these three pieces and I'll carry this overnight bag by myself .
Sir , your bags are 30 pounds over weight . You are allowed only 45 pounds of baggage .
Well , then , how much do I owe you ?
Hi Kara , this is Mike .
Hello Mike . How are things going for you ?
Great , how are you ?
Fine . Everything is just fine .
Kara , I had a great time the other night and was wondering if you would like to go out again this weekend .
Mike , I enjoyed your company , but I am getting ready to graduate soon . I really need to focus on my studies .
Maybe I could help you with what you need to get done .
Hello , Mr . Macmillan .
Hi , Susan . How are you feeling today ?
Much better , thanks .
I would suggest roast beef , sir .
All right , roast beef , please . And I'd like to start with soup .
We have clear and cream soup at your choice . Which one do you prefer ?
Has my package arrived ?
I'm not sure . What does it look like ?
It's quite a delicate piece of equipment , so I hope it was well-packed . It's oblong-shaped , about 50 cm long . It's made of metal .
How do you usually spend your leisure time ? I mean , do you have any special interests out of your job ?
Of course . You see , almost everyone has some kind of hobby
Yeah , you ' re quite right and what ' s your hobby ?
I like taking photos out of door .
Oh , photography , It ' s really a good hobby .
Yes , I usually develop and print all my own photos .
You yourself have a photo studio ?
I think you should look over these figures again . There are some calculations that are a bit off .
I apologize . This should not have to be this way .
Apology is accepted . Try to do better next time .
I wouldn't dare go bungee jumping .
Hurry up , Daniel , it's Barbie time .
All right , Sis !
Come on , it's cool outside .
I really wish Mom and Dad were here with us .
Hey , Daniel , what's your favorite weather ? Snowy or sunny ?
Me ? Er , I like hot weather , just like today .
What ? Are you crazy ?
I like to watch Barbie sticking her tongue out .
Ew , Danny , gross !
By the way , what's your favorite weather ?
I love snowy , because it is very very romantic .
Well , what did you think about the last candidate ? Do you think we should hire her ?
She had a very impressive resume , but she seemed to lack the confidence that I think a good manager needs .
What made you think that she wasn't very confident ?
Did you notice the way that she avoided making eye contact with us while she talked ?
She was a bit nervous , I guess . What else ?
When she first walked into the room to greet us , she didn't shake our hands or introduce herself at all . I thought that was a bit unprofessional .
You're right . If she walked into meeting with our clients like that , it would make our company look bad , wouldn't it ?
It sure would . Did you also notice the way she slouched in her chair during most of the interview ? She had horrible posture !
I agree . I guess I was paying more attention to her answers than her body language .
On top of that , she didn't seem to have any sense of people's personal space . She didn't keep enough distance between us during the meeting .
That's true . I guess we ' ll have to keep looking for a manager then .
May I take your drink order while you are looking over your menu ?
Yes , do you have a wine list ?
The wine list is on the second page of your menu .
Do you have mixed drinks in this restaurant ?
Yes , we have a full bar here .
I am not sure what I want . Do you have any house specials ?
Actually , we are famous for our Cuervo Gold margaritas .
That sounds good ! Please bring me one of those .
Would you like that drink blended or on the rocks ?
I would like it blended .
Would you like it with salt or no salt ?
Madam , what can I do for you ?
Next week there will be a meeting with the manager of USE Company ; this is an important opportunity for our company to have a new relationship with a new partner . So , I want you to prepare an instruction book with detailed introduction of our products . This introduction will be presented in the meeting .
I get it . And ... ?
Remember to add an agenda for this meeting and show our warm welcome to them .
How about adding some pictures of our products for the introduction ?
Good idea ! The pictures will illustrate the performance of our products vividly .
OK , I will prepare it right now .
A , do your best , it's very important .
What dressing would you like on the salad ?
French dressing , please .
I beg your pardon ?
Oh , French dressing .
Sorry , it's not available now . Anything else ?
We still prefer French dressing .
Will you say it again ?
Good morning . Could you tell me the times of trains to London , please ?
Yes . There are trains at 7:59 , 9:18 , and 10:32 .
What time does the 7:59 train get to London ?
At 9:36 .
What about coming back ? I'd like to come back at about 7 p . m .
There's one at 7:10 p . m . and the next one is at 7:40 p . m .
Mmm , how much is a return ticket ?
If you get on before 4 p . m . or after 6 p . m . , there is a saver return which is 9 pounds . An ordinary return is 16 pounds .
Good morning , sir . Can I help you ?
Yes , I'd like to see the manager . Here ' s my card .
Thank you , Mr . Wang . Do you have an appointment ?
No , I'm afraid I don't . Is it possible for me to see him now ?
I'm afraid Mr . Li is engaged at the moment . Would you mind waiting ?
Well , how long will it be ?
About half an hour .
That's too bad . I can't wait that long . I have another appointment at ten .
Can the Assistant Manager meet you instead ?
No , I have discussed the details about sales of our new equipment with the manager on the telephone yesterday .
Do you want to make another appointment ?
Yes , I suppose that's the best thing I can do for now . I'll be here on Thursday morning at 10 o'clock . Is that all right ?
Hi , Jenny . Are you going to school now ?
Yup . I have English at 9 in the morning .
Got any plans after the class ?
Not really . What about you ?
We will have our midterm exams next month . I plan to look for some important books and study at the library . Do you want to join me ?
Sure . I need to return some books . They are due today . Besides , I can also read some weekly publications , magazines and newspapers .
Great . We can go to the swimming pool in the gymnasium after that .
That sounds like a good idea . We can chill out a little in such a hot summer . Are you good at swimming ?
Well , that's a good question . I haven't swum for almost two years . I think I need more practice .
Oh , it's almost 9 . I need to hurry . I am running late now . See you after class in front of the library then . Bye !
We have a great variety of men's suits , sir . Which particular brand do you prefer ?
Pierre Cardin .
How about this one ?
Hey , how are you doing ?
Could you do me a favor ?
Sure , whatever you need .
Excuse me , haven't we met somewhere before ?
Yes , I'm Jame , your neighbor when you lived in here last year .
Oh , I see . Glad to see you here .
Are you willing to work abroad ?
Why not ? It's the very reason why I've applied for this job . It's really exciting for me to experience business in an international environment .
How about your family ?
Wangfujing Grand Hotels . How can I help you ?
Do you have any rooms available next Saturday and Sunday night ?
Could you hold the line , please ? I will check out our room availability for those days ... Yes . we have a few vacancies next weekend . We have double rooms , suites and deluxe suites in Japanese , Roman . French and presidential styles , which one do you like best ?
A double room , please .
OK . Could I have your name , please ?
My name is Monica Cellar .
OK , Ms . Monica . I've reserved a double room for you next Saturday and Sunday night . We will see you then !
Can you speak English ?
Yes I can . I speak it very well .
Where did you learn it ?
I lived in England when I was a child .
What else can you speak ?
Do you like Barry ?
No , not very much . He ' s too ambitious and dishonest .
I agree . I like his brother , Paul . They are not alike .
Yes . They are completely different . Paul is very sociable and much more honest than his brother .
What kind of person do you consider yourself to be ?
I think I ' m polite , careful , relaxed and shy .
Oh , I don ' t think you ' re shy ! You are always chatting with new people when we go to a party .
Well , yes , but those people always start talking to me . I never talk to them first . Perhaps I ' m not as shy as I think . Anyway , you ' re certainly not shy !
You ' re right . I love going out and making new friends .
So , you ' ll be at my birthday party on Friday ?
Alright everyone settle down . Let ' s get started . As you know , an important aspect of becoming a good citizen is understanding the genesis of our legal system . It is not enough to simply memorize our laws , it is necessary that we comprehend why and how they were formed . This brings me to our topic for today . Does anyone know what we celebrate on May first ?
Cinct de mayo ?
No , that ' s May fifth in Spanish , James , no wonder you are failing my Spanish class . No , May first is International Workers ' Day .
Do we get a day off from school then ?
No ! It is not considered to be a national holiday here in the US , but in other countries it is .
Www , man !
In the nineteenth century , working conditions were appalling , with workers being forced to work ten , twelve , and fourteen hours a day . Support for the eight-hour work day movement was growing rapidly , despite the indifference and hostility of many union leaders , and by April 1886 , 250,000 workers were involved in the May Day movement . Previous legislative attempts to improve working conditions had failed , so labor organizers took drastic measures . They passed a resolution stating that eight hours would constitute a legal day ' s work . And , on May First 1886 , the resolution took effect .
Cool ! Is that why we only work eight hours now ?
Yes ! But the happy ending came at a high price . On May third , 1886 , police fired into a crowd of strikers at the McCormick Reaper Works Factory , killing four and wounding many . A mass meeting was called for the next day to protest the brutality .
And then what happened ?
Hi , Francis , how was your business trip ?
It was a nightmare .
What ' s up ?
Actually , the business trip itself was very successful . We arrived on time , we had nice conversations and we settled some important issues for the next year .
Sounds quite fruitful , why do you call it still a nightmare then ?
Well , the air line lost my luggage on the return flight and then I lost my carry on bag when I was tackling with the officers in charge . I left the airport three hours later than I expected and then I was caught in a traffic jam . When I finally got home , I was totally exhausted . But I found the elevator was out of service due to a blackout .
This is really a sad story . Did they trace back your luggage ?
I am still waiting for their call .
Tom , this is Mary Bobbins . She ' s just come over from sales .
It ' s nice to meet you ! Guess we ' ll be working together .
Yes , she ' ll be working closely with you on the marketing end of things .
Good afternoon . Lotus Catering Company . Lilian speaking . May I help you ?
Good afternoon . Lilian . This is Tom Baker over at Beck ' s Trading company . We need to arrange a banquet for next Wednesday afternoon .
I see , Mr . Baker . How many people are you planning to invite and how much would you like to spend per person ?
Mary , would you like to get something to eat with me ?
OK . When ?
At 10 o'clock .
10 in the morning ?
No , at night .
Sorry , that's too late . I usually go to bed around 10:00 PM .
OK , how about 1:30 PM ?
No , that's too early . I'll still be at work then .
How about 5:00 PM ?
That's fine .
OK , see you then .
Hello , Madam . What can I do for you today ?
Hello . I'd like to send 600 RIB in cash to my daughter . How long will it take for her to receive the money ?
It's very quick and easy . It just takes 24 hours , we guarantee that . All you need to do is fill in this slip and we can proceed .
Are there any extra charges , like commission ?
Oh , it's getting late . I've got to run . It was nice talking to you , karren .
Thanks , Tim . Nice meeting you , too .
I guess we'll see each other around .
Yeah , I hope so . Well , take it easy .
Excuse me .
Yes , sir . Can I help you ?
Um , this steak , I asked for to be medium rare .
Medium rare , that ' s right , sir . I remember your order .
Well , I ' m afraid it isn ' t . It ' s a bit too well done and rather tough . Would you mind changing ?
If it is not to your satisfaction , I ' ll certainly bring you another . But I ' m afraid you may have to wait for a few minutes .
First of all , thank you for accepting this job .
It ' s my pleasure .
What are your salary expectations ?
Would you please tell me about your pay skill first ?
We ' ll offer you a monthly salary to begin with , in addition , we offer one percent commission and all your sales . You also enjoy life insurance and health insurance . What ' s starting salary would you expect here ?
They sum my skills and experience . I ' d like to start it with 4000 yuan a month .
That sounds reasonable .
Do I have paid vacation ?
A Westerner said to his Chinese friend . " Chinese people slurp when drinking soup . It ' s disgusting . " The Chinese friend replied , " Westerners make a lot of noise licking their fingers when eating . It ' s even worse . "
Everyone has his own habits , but these habits are not very good . The noise often spoils other people ' s appetite .
I attended a course on table manners while I was in the United States . Some of the things we learnt included how to place the napkin and utensils and how to pass the bread . Before each course , the teacher would ask if we wanted to learn the Continental European way or the American way . We always said " American way . " It ' s amazing that everyone is so used to their own table manners . What is the Chinese way ?
The westerners use knives and forks to eat so it is complicated . The Chinese use a pair of chopsticks and eat out of the same plate . I assume it is less complicated , right ?
Not really . I did some research about Chinese table manners . The important rule is to remain silent while eating . Of course , this refers to family meals only . Not talking over meals is supposed to be good for the health . It is impolite if people do not talk to each other during a social party . The table arrangements and serving order for a social party are equally complicated . Each dish should be placed in the correct position . When fish is served , the tail should be pointing at the guest because tail meat is supposed to be tasty . If it is in winter , the stomach should face the right-hand side of the guest because that portion of the fish is very rich in winter . Each dish should be commenced by the eldest person who is seated at the head of the table . The diners should sit close to the table so food won ' t drop on their cloths . No noise should be made when chewing . No one should move food back to the communal plate even if he doesn ' t like it . One should drink soup slowly and is not supposed to make a lot of noise . All these table manners are very similar to Western habits .
It seems that people share the same basic sense of etiquette regardless of their background . Apart from the different tools used for eating we seem to follow the same principles . We do not let inappropriate manners spoil other people ' s appetite . Westerners like to say , " bon appetite " before meals which is one way to suggest " mind your table manners . " Is there such an expression in Chinese ?
It depends on where you are and what position you are in . For instance , if you are in an elevator and you smile , you will make other takers uncomfortable .
That ' s an exception . But I am fed up with those who keep a straight face in front of me .
I cannot see eye to eye with you here . You see , I am fed up with those who keep smiling to me . I mean , they smile for no reason at all .
Do you know how to play go ?
It's easy . All you have to do is to use your pieces to surround the opponent's pieces and then take over all of his territory .
But I heard it is very difficult to play .
Are you free on Friday evening because we were wondering if you would like to come round for dinner ?
Oh , thank you very much . I ' d like to come , but I ' m afraid I ' m busy that evening .
That ' s a pity ! Then when would it be a good time for you ?
Well , I ' m not too sure , actually . I ' Ve got a lot going on the next couple of weeks . Why don ' t I call you later ?
Maybe you should have told me first ?
Why ?
Because we're partners .
Who do you think will win the championship ?
I really can't say . Both teams this year seem really good .
There's a game on tonight . You want to watch it with me ?
Hello , is this house keeper ?
Yes , Madam , may I help you ?
This room 117 , and we have just checked in .
Yes ?
Our room hasn't been cleaned up yet . So would you send one of your house keepers to clean up our room .
Oh , yes . Madam , we'll come right away then . Your room number and your name , please ?
Our room number is 117 and my name is Terry Chen .
Well , we've finally put the finishing touches on the training programs for next year . Here's a report showing the projected costs as well as the expected return on investment .
Return on investment ? How can you have a return on this kind of investment ? Can you really calculate the value of these training programs ?
Sure ! It's not a real figure , of course . It's just an estimate based on rehiring costs , and the potential lost revenue that results from incompetence .
Wow ! I'm impressed . So , what's in the cards for future training ? Will it be in-house or off-site ?
A little of both . We'll have a few daylong sessions for things like business writing skills and software training . Those are available to everyone . We also have a variety of other programs
Yes , I see that here ... continuing education for the IT department , a time management course for accounting , and team building for sales . Anything planned for HR ?
Hi , boss . You have a call .
I told you to hold my calls . I ' m very busy at the moment .
I know . But she said she had an important thing to tell you .
Okay . Put her through .
Susan , I am inviting you and Frank to our house warming party this weekend .
A house warming party ?
Yes , Deborah and I are going to buy a new home in Woodlawn .
Congratulations ! That ' s wonderful . I bet both of you are quite happy .
Well , we have always dreamed of owning our own home , but real estate 1 in this area is extremely expensive .
I understand . That ' s why Christopher and I want to find a place in a small town , far from the city .
That ' s a good idea if you can find employment nearby .
If you wanna keep healthy , you must give up smoking . It's extremely bad for your health , you know .
I know it's not good for me , but the problem is I just can't help it .
Well , I've got an idea , put the label cancer sticks on each pack of cigarettes , and read it before you smoke . It may give you a feeling to reduce it .
How much are these apples ?
Let me weigh them for you . 1 . 5 $ .
Do you accept coupons ?
Yes .
Here are my coupons . Is that enough ?
I'm sorry , but I can't find the book you lent me . I guess I have lost it .
Don't worry about it .
I really feel bad about it . Let me buy you a new one .
Would you mind if I smoked ?
The bridegroom looks a bit nervous .
On this occasion , most people do .
Oh , they are playing the wedding March . Here they come .
She is a beautiful bride .
I am so happy for them .
Are you crying ?
Yes , I always cry at weddings .
Harris and Anne are perfect for each other .
Yes , they are .
You and Tom also make a great couple .
In fact , we are beginning to make preparations .
For the wedding ?
No , no , for the engagement .
Hi . Can I help you ?
No , thanks . I ' m just looking around .
Okay . Please let me know if you need any help .
Good morning . My name is John Smith . I'm an import manager .
How do you do , Mr . Smith ? My name is Thou Hong .
Nice to meet You , Ms . Thou . We've learned that you specialize in the export of electronic products .
Will you please take a seat ? Mr . Smith , have you seen the display of our electronic products in the exhibition hall downstairs ?
Yes . I had a look just now . I found some of the exhibits of excellent quality and beautiful design . I feel we
Sure we can . You know , we've been in this line for more than twenty years .
So , Ms . Thou , we're a newly-established company , but we have wide connections with wholesalers and retailers all over America .
Good . We can hold more talks later on to iron out the details .
Why do you think you are qualified for this position ?
I have four years study in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and it has given me a solid theory foundation . Moreover , I have worked at CAB Company for 4 years and got a lot of practical experience .
Great . Then what's your technical post title now ?
I am a senior mechanical design engineer .
Do you take the original certificate with you ?
Yes . Here it is .
Can you briefly tell me about one of your designs ?
Could we have the honor of you presence of the meeting ?
I'm awfully sorry , I have other plan .
Would you prefer some other time ?
I'd love to come other time if it can be arranged .
Are you quite sure you can come next Tuesday ?
Certainly , I'll be going .
What time am I supposed to pick you up ?
I'll be waiting for you in our office about nine o'clock .
I don't know what to do , if I can't find the money .
Don't worry yourself too much .
Do I check in for the train D8 08 to Shanghai here ?
Yes , show me your tickets please .
Here you are . By the way , when does the train leave ?
The train is driving after ten minutes .
Thanks . Where is my seat ?
It's over there . Have a good trip .
Any phone calls for me while I was out ?
Yes , your wife and your dentist called .
Thank you .
Thanks for inviting me . And happy birthday , Julia .
I cannot understand why she always helps and supports her brother .
Why do you say so ?
Because he is often in trouble .
She has promised her mother that she would be with him through thick and thin .
Hey Eve , how are you ?
I ' m fine , Celia . And you ?
I ' m ok . I ' m so busy !
Do you have a lot of homework ?
Yes . Don ' t you ?
Of course I do !
Which class are you working on right now ?
I ' m studying for my chemistry exam tomorrow .
Are you in Mrs . Green ' s class ?
Yes . Are you ?
Yes . We must have the same exam tomorrow !
Do you want to study together ?
Sure . This library is too quiet though .
Do you want to go to an empty classroom ?
That sounds good .
Room service . May I come in ?
Come in please .
Mr . Green ?
Yes . Put them on there please .
OK . If you need anything , just call the Room service .
Thank you . By the way , what shall we do with the plates when we finish our meal ?
Just leave them outside the door . We will take care of it .
In 1986 , a New Zealander Hackett popularized Bungee as a commercialized sport of mass entertainment . This sport is very challenging . It is a test of people's psychological ability of endurance . Especially when descending , as if they are watching a fast forward tape and when they bounce back , they sway around . The timid people will shrink back at the sight of it . Even if they jump off , they find it hard to avoid screaming with closed eyes . No wonder people give the title ' brave ' to anyone who jumps off .
You see , the bungee participants take a deep breath when they stand at the starting spot and then , like diving , their heads are over heels and they jump off into the realm of the combination of heaven and earth . The wind roars at their ears and their bodies rapidly descend . They do not even have enough time to do several gymnastic movements and they are rebounded to the upper air by the cord .
Entrusting life to the care of a rope indeed requires infinite courage .
A young French fellow recalled his first bungee experience and said , " When I fastened the cord and walked to the platform , I was extremely nervous . When I looked down , I was nervous even more . If the cord had broken , I would be knocked to ' bakemeat ' . However , I knew my worries were unwanted . I was afraid if I retreated others might say something about me . I had to harden my heart and impose my head downward . I only felt wind wiring at my ears . My body rapidly descended . I thought that after only seven or eight seconds I was rebounded to upper air by the cord . In fact it was 30 seconds . Maybe because of my nervousness , I only felt seven or eight seconds . When rebounding to the high altitude , I felt a sudden sense of relief . I did not feel nervous very much , but very comfortable . "
what are you listening to ? Is that Beethoven or Mozart ?
it's Beethoven . Do you like it ?
I think Beethoven's music is incredible . I've heard that listening to it can make you more intelligent , too . Do you believe that ?
I don't know about that , but I do think that it helps people relax .
what other kind of music do you listen to ?
actually , I mostly just listen classical music . What about you ?
to be honest , I think classical music is too complicated for me .
what kind of music do you prefer then ?
I like pop music . Do you ?
not really . I don't think pop music has much depth .
I see what you mean . I think that's way I like it so much .
how long have you been in to pop music , then ?
I've always been into it . Have you always liked classical music ?
not really . When I was little , we didn't really listen to music at all .
so , how did you become interested in it ?
well , when I was about 10 years old , I started playing the piano . I think that's how it all started .
do you still play piano ?
Excuse me , can I have your passport , your immigration form and your Customs Declaration Form , please ?
OK . Here you are .
How long will you be staying at Hotel in China ?
About three weeks .
And what's the purpose of your visit ?
Sightseeing .
And where will you be staying ?
At the Friendship Hotel in Beijing .
OK . Could you put your hand baggage on the counter , please ? Do you have any gifts , or food in here ?
Yes , I have some fresh apples in my suitcase .
I'm sorry , sir , you can't bring fresh fruit into China . I'm going to have to confiscate these .
Welcome to Super Stereos . What can I do for you ?
I'd like to look at your stereo systems . Do you have anything on sale ?
Yes , this system over here is on sale for $ 1,000 . As you can see , all of the components are brand-name .
But it doesn't have a turntable . I have a fair number of vinyl records , so I need something to play them on .
May I help you ?
Yes . I'm looking for some perfume . Do you have perfumes with a light scent ?
How about this one ? It smells like green tea and is our best seller . Try it .
It does smell good , How much is it ?
It goes for $ 40 .
What do you think of the most important things to do when running a business ?
Well , there are several things . Of course , you must do everything you can to keep costs down and revenues high .
So , do you think workers should be paid as little as possible ?
No . if you do that , the workers won ' t like their jobs . They will be less efficient and you will get a high staff turnover . Those things will increase you costs .
How can a business maximise revenues ?
You need to invest in some good advertising . You have to know where your potential customers are and target them . It ' s no good trying to sell computer games to older people . The market is too small .
What else do you suggest ?
I'm so angry at Bob for buying a new bike .
what date is it today ?
why ?
look at the girls in the street . They all have bunch of flowers . Is it Valentine's Day ?
Oh , yes ! I completely forgot about it .
did you have a fight with Jack ?
no , but now he'll be in trouble . What's a boyfriend for ? To forget about Valentine's Day ?
come on , dear ! You forgot it , too .
you know , it's OK for a girl to forget these " big days " , but for a guy , to do that is unforgivable .
is that your phone ?
oh , it's Jack . Excuse me .
wow ! good timing .
he asked me out to a dinner tonight . How about joining us ?
come on ! three's a crowd !
so what ?
Where are you going this weekend ?
I have no idea . Maybe I will sleep for the whole day .
So boring ! Shall we go out for a picnic with my friends ?
Sounds interesting . Who are the other people ?
Fred and David , my college class mates and Rachel .
Gorgeous ! What should I bring on that day ?
Your tent and enough food and water .
You mean , we can do many other things after the picnic , right ?
We can go fishing , chatting and camping .
What are we waiting for ? Come on !
What can I help you with ?
I need to hire you .
What do you need me for ?
I need you for my court date .
What kind of case do you have ?
I ' m being charged with a felony .
I can help you with that .
What is your price ?
I charge $ 150 an hour .
I can ' t afford that .
That ' s my rate .
Don ' t be worried . Please sit down and take it easy .
How could I feel easy ? I ' m really pissed .
But you should avoid finger-pointing when you haven ' t got the real facts .
Hello , this is Steven . May I speak to Mr . Xu ?
Yes , speaking .
I need to make an appointment with you today .
OK . What time is it ?
3 o'ctock this afternoon .
I ' m afraid I'll be tied up at 3 o ' clock this afternoon . Could you make it 5 o'clock this afternoon ?
Yes . That would be better .
Fine . Good-bye .
Did Roll win the race ?
Yeah , he did . But he only won it by a hair's breadth .
But anyway , he won at last .
My name is Mary , and I will be your waitress tonight .
Thank you , Mary . We have been looking forward to trying out this restaurant .
Before your main course , would you like to order an appetizer ?
Sure , that sounds great . Where are your appetizers listed ?
There is a special appetizer menu right here in the center of the table .
The chicken and cheese quesadilla looks good . Is that pretty good ?
You know , that is one of my favorites !
OK , I'll take one order of that .
You could choose another appetizer for half price to share .
What can I do for you ?
I am looking for cologne , small bottle . Can I see that one in the glass shelf ?
Yes , of course , this one costs 260 yuan .
It's too expensive .
If you think it's expensive . You can look at this one .
What's the difference between the two ?
It's difficult to explain . But this one is really cheap .
May I have the menu , please ?
Hi Sam , would you like to come for a curry with us next Friday ?
Sure , I love curry . Who else is coming ?
Jane , Susan , Pete and two colleagues of mine from work .
I have no plans for Friday , so curry would be great . Which restaurant do you have in mind ?
Susan suggested the one on Main Street . She says it is very good .
Which one is that ?
You know , the one just on the corner with Oxford Street . There is a large pharmacy next door .
Oh yes , I know which one you mean . I have never been there , but I looked at their menu once and it did look good .
Okay then . I think we will all meet outside ?
What time ?
At 8 o'clock . I will make the reservation .
We need to figure out how much money we ' re spending and what we ' re spending it on .
Why ?
Well , I think we could be saving more .
Really , well , o . k . Get the receipts out .
Let ' s see . We spent $ 700 dollars for our home loan payment , $ 400 on groceries , $ 75 on utilities , $ 250 on gasoline , $ 100 on books , and $ 300 on entertainment last month .
That ' s $ 1825 .
We put $ 500 into the savings account , and $ 750 into our stock account .
$ 3075 . Our paychecks our $ 3300 , combined . That means we don ' t have any receipts for $ 225 .
Hello ! I'm Penny , I moved here just now .
Oh , Penny , I'm Leonard , glad to meet you .
Nice to meet you , too . I thought I should come and say hello to you . I haven't known anybody .
It is hard to get used to a new place , isn't it ?
Yes . Would you like to come here later to have a coffee ? Bring all your family .
We'd like to . Can you tell me when we go ?
About 4 .
OK . Do you want us to bring something ?
No , just come here .
OK , see you later .
I go to the fitness center every weekend .
What for ?
To lose some weight .
Hi , how are you ?
I'm fine , thanks . Just trying to get adjusted . It's hard to keep track of everything around here .
That's for sure . You're new , too , huh ?
Hi , Andy . I am going to Isabel ' s . Are you coming ?
No . The things are too expensive there for me . I can't afford it .
That is no problem at all . Isabel ' s is having a clearance sale , and today is the last day . You don't want to miss such a good chance , do you ?
Really ? That's wonderful . Can you wait a second ? I need to change .
All right , but hurry up . It takes you hours to change .
I will . Do you think we can get something really nice and cheap ? I mean this is the last day .
I think so . They don't sell shoddy cloth for one thing .
Should we ask Cindy to come along ? She saw the evening gown made of silk last month that she wanted to buy very much . She didn't buy it of course . It would cost her three months ' salary .
She already bought that evening gown .
When ?
Yesterday . She wore that gown last night , and showed it off to everybody at Mr . Mile ' s party .
Oh ? Isn't that like her .
Hurry up , will you ? We ' ll have to go to the gas station first .
Can I borrow these magazines ?
Fill in the slip , then take it to the circulation desk . They will get you what you want .
Are we allowed to go into the stacks to look for books ?
Okay , can I ask you something direct ?
Ha ! It's not like you've ever been one to beat around the bush .
Fair enough . Give it to me straight . Did she bully you into this ?
No , seriously . . . I really want this .
I tell ya , when I got the invite , it really threw me for a loop . You've done a complete 180 .
I know . But things have changed . I guess I've settled down .
Do you have any particular hobbies , Tom ?
Oh , yes . I love playing badminton , table tennis and computer games . And playing the games has become my favorite .
I hear many teenagers will spend hours and hours sitting at computers . And they don't care about their own health at all . How about you ?
I'm no better than them . They say it's mindless to sit in front of a machine all the time , but I think it's stimulating .
You won't play online games full of violence , will you ?
Once in a while .
It's no good . And I think spending several hours each day playing computer games is a waste of time . You might as well do something healthy and meaningful .
When can we expect you and your daughter for dinner ? Next Saturday ?
Next Saturday ? I ' m sorry . I ' Ve promised to go to a Chinese Opera with my daughter .
How about Sunday then ?
Yes , Sunday sounds fine . What time ?
Does 6,30 suit you ?
It suits us fine . We ' ll see you then .
I'd like to pay my bill now .
Your name and room number , please ?
Tom Wilson in Room 306 .
Have you used any hotel services this morning ?
No .
OK . You have stayed for four nights at 90 US dollars each , and here are the meals that you had at the hotel . That makes a total of 660 US dollars .
Can I pay by credit card ?
How can I help you this afternoon ?
I want to take out some money , but there's a massive queue for the ATM so I thought I'd do it over the counter .
Unfortunately , an ATM is being refilled because it ran out of money . That's what's causing the hold up .
Oh , I see . I thought maybe it was just the time of the day , although it isn't usually busy at 2:30 in the afternoon .
You are right , you've just missed the lunchtime rush . Could you fill out a withdrawal slip , please ?
I did that already , while I was waiting . Also , here's my card .
Thank you . And you require ...
800 RIB , please .
Please enter your personal code right here , on the key pad . And sign here , please .
OK ...
Thank you . Here's your card back and your money . Please double check it for me .
The concert was really great .
I agree .
The singing group used to be very popular .
Why don ' t we go the cinema tonight ?
That sounds good but I don ' t know what ' s on .
I think there ' s a very romantic new film starring Hugh Grant . Let ' s go and see that .
Ok , that ' s a good idea . Where shall we meet ?
Well how about meeting at my place ?
Is this the Friendship Hospital ? Please send an ambulance to 68 Hu Nan Road .
Is it urgent ? Our ambulances are not enough to meet every call .
Of course . It's urgent . I think the partie nt is suffering from acute appendicitis . He may die if not treated in time .
All right , we'll come right away .
( after a while ... ) Where's the patient ?
He's there in the room . He's very ill .
Don't worry . We'll put him in the stretcher . You are coming with us ? Step in please .
Carry him into the emergency ward . Here we are .
Help the patient bathe and change his clothes , nurse . Then bring him into the operating room .
( after a while ... ) I'm his guide . What's the trouble with him , doctor
He had appendicitis , but is all right now that it was removed . He'll have to rest for a few weeks to recover .
May I send food for him ?
No , outside food is not permitted .
Can I come round to see him tomorrow ?
Yes . But first you must observe the visiting hours , It's from 2 to 5 p . m . By the way , consult the nurse before you enter the ward .
Yes . Thank you .
By the way , you can bring some flowers .
OK .
Don't worry about him .
When could I take care of him ?
what can I do for you , sir ?
What do we get this morning ?
Fruit juice , cake and refreshments and everything .
I ' d like to a glass of tomato juice please .
Any serial , sir ?
Yes . A dish of cornmeal weight .
And eggs ?
Yes . Baked eggs and buttered toast . I like my baker very crazy .
How do you want to your eggs ?
Fried , please .
Anything more , sir ?
I want to get in shape . I feel like a fence sitter-not really fat , but not really healthy .
I know what you mean . I fit into my clothes , but I'm not always comfortable .
Would you like to get in shape together ?
What do you have in mind ?
How about going to the gym ? There's one really close to work .
I know the one you mean . Do you know how much the memberships are ?
As a matter of fact , they are having a promotion right now .
What happened to your brother ?
It seems that he has gone ape over the girl .
Your parents must be worrying about him .
Yes , he ' s been like this for two weeks . We don ' t know what to do .
Have you talked to him ?
Hey , Jack , I'd better go now .
Is your boss coming by ?
Right ! And I have to finish the report by 5:30 p . m .
Okay . Get back to your work , and call me back this evening .
Okay , no problem . Bye !
May I help you ?
Yes . I'd like to send this parcel to Changchun .
How do you want to send it ?
I guess I'll send it by airmail .
Is there anything valuable ?
No , there are only some vases .
They are fragile articles . They must be packed in a proper strong box . Your light cardboard box won't do .
Have you got boxes for sale ?
Yes .
Is it all right this time ?
Yes . Now fill in two customs declarations and one despatch note in English . You'll have to take your parcel to the next window for examination when you have completed the forms .
OK .
Have you written down your return address ?
I'm afraid I've a complaint to make , which is about the goods we ordered last week .
What is it ?
I will explain the problem briefly . We found in the examination that 35 % of the goods have damaged .
Really ? That's something unexpected . You see , all our exports are strictly inspected before shipment . The goods were in perfect condition when they left the port .
Here's the survey report issued by the China Commodity Inspection Bureau . According to the report , the damage was caused by poor packing . Our surveyors also discovered some cracks on the surface of a number of other cases .
Our goods are well-examined before shipment . I'm afraid the losses must have occurred on route .
Please look into the matter and solve the problem immediately .
Whose part do you think is best played ?
That of the old man .
You're absolutely right ! That's the very figure I like best .
Roger ? Would it be possible to meet with you to discuss my department ' s budget ?
Of course , Debbie . Let me look at my schedule , - - I have some free time on the 12th . That ' s this Thursday at 9:00 a . m .
All right . That ' ll be fine . Can you put together a rough idea of the kind of money I ' ll have available for the next year ?
Can I stay out all night with my friends ?
No way .
But we'll be careful .
Julia , Julia , Julia . My daring Julia , what's wrong with you ?
Steven , are you talking to me ?
Yes , I have called you three times . What makes you in a daze ?
I was thinking about the accident I saw in the morning . I was petrified when two cars collided . I witnessed the traffic accident .
Did someone get hurt ?
A driver died instantly . The other one was badly hurt . A poor boy called Peter was killed in the accident too .
What a terrible accident ! Who should be responsible for this traffic accident ?
I think both . They drove too fast . What's worse , one of them was drunk .
Why do some guys like to drive so fast when they are drunk ?
Welcome back racing fans ! My name is Rick Fields and , as always , I am joined by my partner in crime , Bob Copeland .
We ' re in the last stretch of this very exciting race , and Kimmi Rikknen is leading the pack with only four laps to go ! They are heading to turn three and Lewis Hamilton tries to pass Rikknen ! It ' s a close one and , oh no ! Hamilton hits the wall !
He came in too fast , jammed on the breaks and spun out . We have a yellow flag and the pace car is making its way onto the track .
The cleanup crew is towing the heavily damaged car and the green flag drops ! Rikknen is still in the lead with only two laps to go !
Smoke is coming out of his car ! He seems to be having engine trouble ! He makes his way into the pit , and Fernando Alonso takes the lead !
Can you do me a favor ?
Sure . What is it ?
Can you keep an eye on my bag , please ? Nature's calling .
Sure . Will you be long ?
No , I just want to use the bathroom .
Hello ?
Hello ?
Can I speak to Li Hong , please ?
Speaking .
Hi , Li Hong . This is Alice .
Hi , Alice . How are you ?
Not bad . Li Hong , I am sorry that I can ' t go to see Mrs . Brown with you tomorrow morning . My mother is ill . I must take care of her .
I ' m sorry to hear that . You ' d better stay at home . After all , we can visit Mrs . Brown later
OK . Bye - bye .
It's your turn , sir . I'm sorry that you had to wait . Saturday is a busy day for us .
I suppose so . A haircut , please .
How do you want your hair cut ? Any particular way ?
I'd just like a trim , and don't cut it too short .
Yes , sir . How about the sideburns ?
I think they only need a little trimming .
Can I use the clippers ?
No , don't use them , please .
Oh , all right , sir .
Would you trim off a bit more there , above the ear ?
Don't you think it needs a little taken off on top , too ?
I guess that would be better .
( Raising a lock ) About like this ?
No , not that much . Now , yes , that's fine .
Shave also , s ir ?
Yes .
I'm going to let Bob know about the merger .
It makes no sense to tell him about that .
Why ?
Yesterday I had a deal with a vice manager . He acts like the point man .
Can you show me how to use chopsticks ?
With pleasure .
Oh , it is not easy to learn !
I think you are a quick learner .
Well , I don't think I can manage with it .
In that case , shall I ask the waiter to bring you a knife and fork ?
Did you see the fashion awards last night ?
I sat through about half of it but they lost me after that .
Not interested ?
Not really , to be honest . Some of what they call fashion looks terrible to me .
But they are showing what will be all the rage next year .
All the rage with whom ? I never see anyone wearing these designs on the street .
Did you know that fashion is cyclical ?
What , it keeps coming back ?
Precisely ! For example , Flares were popular for a while , then went out of fashion . Now we can start to see them coming back in again .
Flares ?
They're also known as bell-bottoms . They are a type of trousers .
It's too complicated . I'll just stick to the plain clothes .
Wake up sleepyhead . The sun is beginning to shine . What a lovely summer day !
Yeah , clearly blue sky . But it is a bit too hot for me . I don't like heat and humidity .
It's not that hot . It's cooler than yesterday . Let's go swimming !
That's a thought . It's still early , and the beach isn't crowded at this time of the day . If we don't stay too long , we won't get sunburned .
Yeah , sounds like fun . I can wear my new pink bikini .
There won't be anyone there to appreciate how cute you are .
Who cares ! Well , the smart guys get there early . That's the kind of guy I want to meet . Let's go !
If you are going to husband hunting in a bikini , then I want to wear one , too .
Ok , you could borrow one of mine .
Thanks , how about the green and black one ?
By the way , can you tell me where I can find a restaurant not ?
As far as I can see , Westlake Restaurant is a good choice .
How can I get there ?
Walk down till you see the first lights . It's cross the street .
We'd like to have a look around your house ?
Yes , of course , please follow me .
Thank you .
This is our courtyard .
It's so spacious , about 40 square metres , right ?
Yes , about 46 square metres .
Are these corn ears hanging on the tree branch ?
Yes .
Very beautiful and very interesting . But why do you hang them in the tree ?
They don't have enough time to peel it after they harvested them , so they hung them in the tree . Then in winter , they can peel corn ears in their leisure time .
Good morning , Mr . Robinson . I am afraid there is a change in today's program . I just got word that your appointment with Mr . Smith , the general manager of Western Textile Co . , Ltd . , will have to be put off .
But why ?
Mr . Smith called just now that he had to fly to Shanghai on urgent business today .
OK , I see .
Mr . Smith is sending his apologies and has asked me to find out if the day after tomorrow would be all right with you .
Yes , that will be just as good .
Then shall we make it nine o'clock the day after tomorrow morning ?
Hey , Ted . What are you up to this Friday ?
Well , I have the day off from work .
That ' s great ! Do you have any plans ?
Well , I ' Ve been working so hard lately , so I ' ll probably just take it easy .
Sounds nice .
Yeah , I ' ll probably just stay in and relax . Maybe watch a few movies .
Can I stop by ?
Hey , Paul , why the long face ?
It's difficult to explain .
Try me .
Well , I had a terrible day of work , I'm thinking of quiting my job .
Take it easy , maybe tomorrow will be different .
I don't know , I can't stand my job these days .
Do you know where you want to transfer to ?
I don ' t have the slightest clue .
What school would you like to go to ?
I ' m not sure .
You honestly have no idea ?
PCC is perfectly fine for me .
You might as well stay here .
That ' s not a bad idea .
PCC is a wonderful institution .
You have a point .
So , what are you going to do ?
Hi , Michael , how's it going ?
Well , things are all right .
I heard you got a new roommate . What's he like ?
Yeah , Bob moved in last week . He is a nice guy and so far everything is cool except this girlfriend .
Oh ? What's wrong with his girlfriend ?
She came over last weekend . She is a nice girl but there's something about her voice that really creeps me out . I tried to smile and be polite , but the whole time all I could think was " what's wrong with your voice ? "
Well , I guess it might take some time to get used to .
I doubt it . Last time was an oral train wreck . Listening to her talk is like chewing tin foil .
Oh come on , it's not that bad .
No , it's so much worse . And tonight they invited me out to dinner . I really have no idea how I'm going to pull it off .
Rough . Maybe you can do the most of the talking .
That's the plan .
Excuse me , I'm looking for the Alands Morrissette album Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie .
Let's see . If we have it , it should be over there under M . ( He looks through the Cds . ) Hmm , it looks like we've sold out of that one , but we should be getting some more copies in soon . If you want , we can order it for you .
That's okay , I'll just check back later . Do you have the new Sting album ?
Yes , it's right over here .
Great . One last question , where is your jazz section ?
Back there against that wall .
Oh , I see it . Thanks for your help .
Where is John ? I can't find him anywhere .
Haven't you heard that he is in prison ?
What ? Beg your pardon .
John is in prison now . He was copped outstealing .
Mary , do you remember when we met ?
I won't ever forget it ! I was sitting in the cafeteria all by myself ...
And I came up and asked to sit by you ...
What's your major in college ?
I take architecture as my major .
What research are you dealing with now ?
Would you show me some table-cloths ?
Certainly . ( Take a table-cloth to her )
How much is it ?
A table-cloth of this size and style is 15 Yuan .
That ' s reasonable .
If you take good care of it , it will last you quite a number of years .
Fred , have you made the plan for April 28th ?
Yes , sir . Shall I explain the details of the plan now ?
You go !
According to your schedule , you will visit the Times Company , including its office building , workshops and stores , in the morning from 8: 30 to 11
The weekend's finally here !
And it's a long one . I have Monday off . It's Memorial Day or something like that .
Yep . It's the kickoff of the barbecue season . We're invited to a grill party in the park tomorrow .
Sounds good . What do we need to bring ?
We need to buy some buns for the hot dogs and hamburgers , and I'm making potato salad .
Excuse me . How much for one are these ?
Un .. Those are 25 dollars each .
OK . Say I was to buy four , could I get a discount ?
Well , I could offer you maybe 10 percent off .
Oh , I was hoping to get one free . Like four for 75 dollars .
Mary , can you help me set the table ?
Sure .
This is usually my chore .
I don't mind helping .
We need to set the table for four .
So that's four plates , four forks , four knives , and four spoons ?
That's right . Mom didn't know where to buy chopsticks for you .
What post have you held before ?
I have been a salesman .
Welcome to Flash Foot . What can I do for you , ma'am ?
I'd like to have this roll of film developed .
What size prints would you like ?
Four by six will do .
Have you been in America long , Hellen ?
No . Only for a couple of weeks .
Where are you going to study ?
I am going to register at Harvard next month .
What are you going to major in ?
I am going to major in tourism . What about you ? How long have you been here ?
For nearly four years .
Good morning . I ' m Mickey Huang , I have an appointment with Mr wilson .
Is this about the Sales Assistant position ?
That's right . My appointment is for 11 o'clock .
Mr wilson is on the line right now . Please have a seat . He'll be right with you .
Thank you .
Can I get you something , coffee , tea ?
This is the Pan-American Club . May I help you ?
Yes . I believe you have a luncheon meeting this coming Wednesday . Could you give me some more information about that ?
Yes , of course . The guest speaker is Professor David of a University , and he'll be lecturing about The impact of the Oil Crisis on Latin America .
Hello , Jason . Are you free this Saturday evening ?
Yes . I have no plans .
Would you like to Come to our barbecue ?
Yes , that sounds wonderful .
OK . See you then .
But wait , wait , will there be food that is not meat ? You know . I'm a vegetarian
Hey ! I didn't know that ! When did you become a vegetarian ?
The other day , I decided that I needed to loose more weight so I am going to try to be a vegetarian . And you know what ? I don't miss the taste of meat .
Relly ? That's amazing .
Yes , it really is . After having vegetarian diet . I have much more energy , I need less sleep , I feel calmer . I can maintain an ideal body weight without worrying about how much I eat and I can think more clearly .
Are you kidding ? I really don't think that you think less clearly on non-vegetarian diet .
Yes , maybe . But I feel better since becoming a vegetarian . Maybe you could also have a try .
Maybe I'll also have a try some day , but I'm afraid that it would be difficult for me to refuse meat .
Maybe you would change your mind after having a vegetarian diet .
Nice to see you , Patrick .
Bob ! I hear your team won the match .
Yeah . All of us tried our best .
Congratulations !
Hi ! My name is Mike .
Hi ! I'm Nancy . Nice to meet you .
Nice to meet you , too .
Where are you from ?
I'm from Shanghai . And you ?
How ' s the food ?
It ' s pretty good .
Well I don ' t think so . I don ' t like it at all !
I ' m afraid you ' re being too particular about your food .
I eat dog food when my parents are out .
We ' re in the same boat ! I ' Ve eaten fast food the whole week . I hate it now .
Poor us ! All this junk food lacks nutrition !
Let ' s dine out tonight for a change !
How can I help you ?
Yes , I would like to look at some of your products . I think what I am using now does not fit me well .
We have a full range of products from cosmetics to skin cleansers .
What do you have in foundation ?
Our foundation is of very super quality . We only use the finest ingredients . It will moisturize your skin and it can protect your skin from UVA and UVB .
What colors do you have in foundation ?
Let me show you . We have six colors
The color I use now is natural beige . How much do you sell it for ?
250 Yuan .
That's expensive .
What you're paying for , madam , is the ingredients . it provides a soft and perfect finish coverage with a weightless feel .
I understand . I need a lipstick , too . Do you have lipsticks in red ?
Of course . But I suggest you buy a lipgloss . The shining effect is in .
All right . How much is it ?
45 Yuan . If you buy the two , you can get a small bottle of nail polish for free .
It was good to see you here , John .
Happy to see you-too-Mike . How ' s your family ?
Waiter !
I'll be with you in a second . Uh ... Yes , ma'am ?
This is not what I asked for . I'm afraid .
Oh , I'm so sorry . May I ask what you ordered again ?
What are you doing this weekend ?
I am not sure . What are you doing ?
I was thinking of maybe taking a drive to the beach .
That sounds like a great idea !
Would you be interested in joining me ?
Sure , I would love to go with you . When would you be leaving ?
I thought that we could leave around 8
That would give us plenty of time to explore . Did you know that there is a music festival on the beach in Santa Barbara ?
That was part of my plan .
Hey , there ' s Leo . I wonder why he ' s walking arm in arm with that young woman .
It ' s as plain as the nose on your face . They ' re dating each other .
You ' re pulling my leg ! She must be thirty years younger than Leo . Talk about robbing the cradle !
Well , you can bet this relationship ' s going to be a flash in the pan .
It must have been love at first sight because I know he didn ' t have a girlfriend last week .
Hey daddy ! You look great today . I like your tie ! By the way , I was wondering can I &
NO !
I haven't even told you what it is yet !
Okay , okay , what do you want ?
Do you think I could borrow the car ? I ' m going to concert tonight .
Um .. I don ' t think so . I need the car tonight to pick up your mother .
Egg ! I told you about it last week ! Smelly Toes is playing , and Eric asked if I would go with him !
Who's this Eric guy ?
Duh ! He's like the hottest and most popular guy at school ! Come on , dad ! Please !
No can do ... sorry .
Fine then ! Would you mind giving me 100 bucks ?
No way !
Oh , boy , I hate to say this , but I really have to leave now .
That ' s all right . I understand .
I ' m so sorry .
I hate to say goodbye , but it's late .
Can't you stay for a little bit longer , it's only 8 .
I wish I could . But I'm afraid I can't . I've got some serious studying to do . I have to go .
OK . See you on Today .
See you on Moday . Have a great weekend .
I think this spring is a good time for us to start looking .
We should plan to move out of here before July . I'm tired of living in apartments .
I know , dear . I am too . But we've just been too busy to look for a house .
We need to find a good realtor .
Not necessary . If we use a realtor to find a house , it will be more expensive .
What do you mean ?
Realtors always get a commission . If the realtor helps us find something , we have to pay him .
But doesn't a realtor help with the contract ? I thought they take care of all the legal troubles .
Yes , that's often true . But you have to pay them .
I still think we should have a realtor . We're new in this country . We don't know all the laws of buying a house . And also , the realtor will inspect the house . He can tell us if the house has any problems .
Of course we need a house inspector . But we can hire an inspector on our own . As for the legal problems , I have friends . They can help us .
So how can we find a house if we don't have a realtor ?
It takes a little more time . We have to check the ads in the paper . Probably also there are special real estate magazines with ads . Then we have to drive to the homes and look at them .
And doesn't the person selling the house have a realtor ?
Sometimes they do , sometimes they don't . It's best to find someone who is selling by themselves .
Why ?
That is because if the seller has a realtor , their price will be higher . He will have to pay a commission to the realtor .
Hmm . It all sounds very complicated .
It is . But buying a house is very important . So it takes time . That's why we haven't done it yet . It's very troublesome .
I want to look in the papers today . Maybe we can see something we like .
I just got a call from Mrs . Fitzgerald . See what your Willie has just done .
My Willie ? Why has he suddenly become my Willie ?
Because he takes after you , he's got into trouble again .
What did he do this time ? I remember last time he was painting her fence to repay her for breaking it , and he accidentally painted her cat .
That was last time . This time it's worse .
Ok , tell me .
Well , he was playing baseball with some friends ...
And the ball went through her window ? That's not as bad as last time .
True , but that's not all . The ball went through the window and hit the vase she has in her front window ...
Ok , that's probably expensive , but not that bad .
And then , ricocheted off her fish bowl . Mrs . Fitzgerald at the last minute dived and saved her fish .
At least the fish were saved . If that's the end of the damages , then everything isn't that bad .
Stop interrupting me . Finally , the ball flew through the air and knocked out Willie's school principal , who was having a cup of coffee with Mrs . Fitzgerald .
I was really glad to hear about your promotion . Congratulations !
Thanks , Jane . I was really surprised . I mean there were a lot of qualified people out there .
Sure , but the work you did was really exceptional ! You definitely deserved it !
Thanks a lot .
You are always responsible and careful .
Jane , I appreciate it very much . I expect to see you get nominated pretty soon , too . You've been doing some great work !
Thank you . I'll try my best . By the way , when do you take over the new position ?
Next month .
So what are you responsible for ?
I'm going to manage the whole accounts department .
So you must get higher pay than before .
Yes , the company will also give me a prize of 1,000 Yuan .
1,000 Yuan ? That's great ! So ...
OK , I know what you mean . It's my treat .
Really ? Can I order anything I want ?
Jason . There ' s a snag in the plans for the Hoover Center .
What ' s wrong ? I thought everything was set .
Well , it was . But the contractor ' s just told me he ' s not going to be able to finish by the twentieth , as planned .
Hey Jane . How are you doing these days ?
Hi Martha . Everything is perfect .
Are you enjoying married life ?
It couldn't be better . My husband is so supportive with my work and he helps around the house so much .
You're so lucky . I hope to get married to a guy like that .
I'm so happy . Even though we are both working , we get to spend a lot of time with each other in the evening and on the weekends .
Do you guys do anything special ?
In the evening , we just sit and talk over dinner . But on the weekend , we try to go out to the beach or hit a nice restaurant , or go to a nice cafe .
Which countries have you been to ?
I ' Ve been to most of the countries in Europe , several countries in asia-china , Japan , korea , and Thailand-and to the united states and Canada .
I thought you had been to Australia too .
No , but I ' m planning on visiting Australia and new Zealand soon . I ' Ve heard that they are beautiful countries . Which is the most beautiful country you ' Ve been to ?
I think I ' d say norway . It has many picturesque fjords , waterfalls , and mountains .
Isn ' t it really cold there ?
Well , the north of Norway is almost always cold , but further south it can be fairly warm in summer . It ' s a wet country , so there ' s snow almost everywhere in winter .
If he promised to help you , I'm sure he will help . He's a man of his word .
You said it . I always count on him when I need his help .
Hello ! We ' Ve been waiting for our lunch order for over an hour . Did you forget our order ?
I ' m sorry , sir . Could you tell me your name and order again , please ? I ' ll check on the delay .
The name ' s Stanley Morris and the order was for two chef ' s salads .
What is the weather like today ?
It stops snowing , but there's a bit wind .
And the streets are covered with ice . Do you know what the temperature is today ?
I missed today's weather for cast in the radio
It seems 10 degree below zero at least . I don't mind the cold weather , but do hate when it get slippery .
The ice is soon be thick for skating . I'm so fine to want a sport
How do I know when to tell EDD that have I started a new job ?
Work is work , whether it ' s a part-time or temporary job or a full-time gig .
So I guess I have to report that I ' Ve found a little bit of work .
All you need to do is fill in the blanks correctly on the Continued Claim Form , and the EDD Office will take care of the rest .
What about if I find a job that I know will only last for a couple of weeks ? Can I take it ?
When could we meet to discuss the project ?
I will be available on Monday or Tuesday . Choose which day is best for you .
I prefer Monday .
Good . Can you come in the morning or would afternoon be best ?
Either one is OK .
Great ! When I check with the others , I will send you an exact time . When you come , be prepared to do your presentation .
I will be prepared to do my presentation .
Who would you like to see there ? Just the sub-committee or should we ask the whole committee ?
Everyone needs to be there .
That will probably be best . Do you need help with directions ?
I think I know where it is . Maybe you could send me directions just to make sure .
I was trying to find the class on preparing for interviews .
You have found your way to the interview class . Please come in !
I am so happy I found this class because I was really nervous about my upcoming interview .
When we go into an interview , what do you think our first consideration should be ?
Our dress and grooming are probably the first thing an interviewer judges us by .
Friendliness and a good attitude are also very important .
Yes , and they help establish a friendly tone for the rest of the interview .
The interviewers always are interested in what you ask them about their company .
What else should I be thinking about ?
I think you should look over these figures again . There are some calculations that are a bit off .
I apologize . This should not have to be this way .
Apology is accepted . Try to do better next time .
Did you hear what she said to me ?
I heard it .
What do you think I should do about it ?
Why don't you watch where you're going ?
Me ? You're the one who pulled out in front of me !
There was plenty of room for me to pull out . You didn't have to stay in the lane you were in .
Hey , listen . I had every right to stay in the lane I was in . You were supposed to wait until I passed to pull out . And anyhow , you didn't give me any time to change lanes . All of a sudden--BANG--there you are right in front of me .
I think my arm is broken .
Sorry about your arm , but it serves you right . You need to learn how to drive . You're lucky you didn't get killed . And I'm lucky to be alive too .
Listen , let's just wait until the police get here . Then we can decide whose fault this accident was .
Fine with me . I know the laws of the road . I'm not worried .
I have a cell phone in my car . Now it's probably on the floor on the passenger side . Why don't you get it for me , and then I can call the police ?
Alright .
It doesn't work . It looks like it's broken . I need to get to a hospital . You should drive me there .
Oh , yeah ? It's better if we make a police report first . Then you can go to the hospital .
Damn it ! I'm injured here . We could wait all day for the police .
Well , you'll just have to wait . I'm not going to move my car until the police arrive . I'll go into one of those houses over there and use their phone . Don't worry . You'll get to the hospital in time .
It really hurts .
Yes , maybe it does . But if you're going to drive like you did just now , you will have to get used to a little physical pain . You know what I mean ?
To hell with you . The accident was your fault .
I'm afraid it wasn't . And when the police get here , you will also see that it wasn't . But enough of this bickering . I'm going to go find a phone . Don ' t move that arm while I'm gone . Alright ?
Mike , come and look at this painting of shrimp ! It is so simple yet so vivid !
Yeah . It is incredible ! Is it the work of Qi Bakshi ?
Yes , it is . How do you know that ?
Well , Qi is famous all over the world , isn ' t he ? Besides I am quite interested in Chinese painting .
Cool ! What kind of Chinese painting do you prefer , free sketch or claborate-style painting ?
I prefer free sketch , especially the landscape paintings . I can always feel peace and harmony from those landscape paintings .
That's true . Chinese art stresses the harmony between man and nature , which is an important part of China's traditional culture .
I love this art exhibition !
So do I . Let ' s go to other areas to see what they have got , shall we ?
Hi Joe . You've met my new assistant , right ?
Emm ... yes . But I wasn't too impressed . I found her a little stuck up .
You are kidding , but she's so helpful .
Tom ... you are her boss , you down . Of course , she's helpful to you .
Come on . She's like that with everyone .
I would love to rent out your apartment .
That ' s great .
How much is the rent ?
The rent each month is $ 1050 .
That ' s a lot of money .
Did you have a better price in mind ?
What about $ 800 ?
That ' s way too low .
I can ' t pay much more than that .
How about $ 900 a month ?
That would be fine .
May I speak to Mr . Thomas ?
Unfortunately , he has left for the day .
I hate to trouble of you . But it is urgent . Please leave this message into him
Sue ? Do you want to join the softball team ? We need another player .
I haven ' t played softball since I was in high school !
Come on ! It ' ll be fun . We play every other Saturday afternoon from May until August .
Excuse me , but I ' m a bit lost here . Where does this street lead to ?
The Queen Street , I guess .
So is it the right way to the City Hall ?
Are you interested in going sightseeing , Mr . Simpson ? I think you are here not only for the negotiation but also for sightseeing .
I heard that there are some beauty spots and places of historical interest in this city .
Shall we go to the Tiananmen Square first ?
That's great . I trouble you so much . Thank you very much .
It's my pleasure . Shall we go there on foot ? It's very near .
Hurry up ! Mom , I can't wait any more .
Look out , honey . Let's come to the shoal waters . Follow me !
OK , Mom . Can I swim now ? I want to learn butterfly stroke .
Honey , listen to me . First , you should learn how to breathe in and breathe out .
Mom , it's so terrible . Water went down into my throat and I almost got drowned .
Do be patient , Honey . Let's do it slowly and correctly .
Oh , Mom , I think I'm not the right person for swimming .
Come on , sweetie , you've done very well . It is the first step that is tough .
Right , I'll make up my mind . Please correct me if any of my movements go wrong .
Yes , well done . That's the way to go . How clever you are ! You've got it .
Really ? I can't believe it . Everything is possible to a willing heart .
Exactly , next , you should hold your legs together and extend your arms above your head .
Yes , like a dolphin . Am I on the right track ?
Good morning , my name is Martin . You've applied for the Laboratory Assistant's position , right ?
Yes . When I saw the advertisement I thought it would really suit me .
Can you tell me why you replied to our advertisement ?
I think that I'll be really good at this kind of work . In fact I learn so fast that I'll be looking for promotion very shortly .
Do you know exactly what you would be doing as a Laboratory Assistant ?
A laboratory assistant helps to maintain scientific equipment , keep a check on the supplies in the store , and prepare the chemicals for experiments .
What sort of student do you regard yourself as ? Did you enjoy studying while you were at school ?
I suppose I'm a reasonable student . I passed all my tests and enjoyed studying subjects that interested me .
What were your favorite subjects at school ?
Maths and chemistry were my favorite subjects at school . I also enjoyed history .
Do you have any plans for further study ?
Well , I've thought about doing the part-time Chemistry Certificate course at Technical College . I think I would really benefit from doing that .
Have you ever had a job before ?
Yes . I have worked part-time at a take away food store-the one just round the corner .
We have a lot of other applicants for this position . Why do you think that you deserve to get the job ?
Well , I've found out a lot about this type of work and my research suggests that I would be quite capable of doing the work involved . I also think that I would be able to handle any training course reasonably well .
I think I have asked you everything I wanted to . Thank you for coming along to the interview .
Thank you . When will I know if I am successful ?
We'll be in touch with you by telephone or by mail within a week . Well . Goodbye .
I wonder who that man is .
Which man ?
The one smoking a cigar .
Well , you seem to enjoy speaking English .
You can't help learning when you're using it all day . You'll see . A few weeks ' study in the school will have a similar effect on you .
I hope so . You see , at the moment I find it difficult to get used to the teacher's speed and accent . I'm awfully worried , I can't reply as quickly as she seems to expect .
Oh , she likes keeping us on our toes by getting us use English throughout the class . She doesn't mind your making mistakes , though .
My son closed his ear to what I said . I don ' t know what I should do .
You can twist his arm in order to have a control of him .
I heard that Ann had divorced .
I suspect it's unavoidable .
Poor Ann . She did not love her husband at all .
How may I help you ?
I need to check these books out .
Do you have your library card ?
Here it is .
It appears that you have late fees .
Really ?
Yes , really .
How much do I owe ?
You owe $ 24 . 50 in late fees .
I don ' t have that much today .
I ' m sorry , but until you pay it , you won ' t be able to check out any more books .
Hi , my name is Lean , and I'm from Russia .
Nice to meet you , Lvan . My name is Alike . I'm from Japan .
To me English is a difficult language .
A second language is always difficult .
True , but English is harder than most . It ' s a crazy language .
A crazy language ? Why do you say that ?
One letter can have several pronunciations and one word can have several meanings .
Excuse me !
Yes . Can I help you ?
We're ready to order . A cup of coffee for me , and a glass of oranges for her .
Yes , how would you like your coffee ?
Just black coffee . Do you serve anything else besides drinks , say cake .
We also serve sandwiches and cakes .
Thanks for coming to see me today .
It's no problem . I was really missing you anyway .
I missed you too .
Why haven't you tried to come see me then ?
I've been really busy .
Doing what ?
Working .
I would've come to see you sooner , but I've been busy too .
What have you been doing ?
I've been working too .
Well regardless , I'm very happy that you came to see me .
What did you say ?
I said it's a lovely day . Why don't we go for a walk ?
Well , I feel a little tired .
Come on ! A little labor , much health .
Then can you wait a few minutes ? I want to finish writing this letter .
Don't take too long . It would be a shame not to take advantage of such lovely weather .
I won't be long . No more than ten minutes . Why don't you go ahead and I'll meet you in the park ?
Hello , Kith , can you and Alice come around this evening ? We prefer your coming .
I think we would be able to make it . What time shall we come ?
About 7 o'clock .
Shall we bring any thing ? Some wine ?
Honey , which hand should I use to hold the fork ?
Left for the fork and right for the knife . Just remember that the stronger one is for knife .
Got it . It's so troublesome to have western food . I've been learning the table manners for hours but still can't really it .
Sure . Rather than eating , having western food is more about western culture .
Yeah . Which restaurant are we going to tonight ?
Cindy has reserved a table for us at a newly opened western restaurant downtown . She said the environment there was really pleasant .
Fine . I believe in Cindy's taste . Oh , what should I wear ?
You should put on the black suit I bought for you last week . But I'm afraid it may be a bit crumpled . You'd better iron it now .
I don't want to mess it up . Please do it for me . I'm going to the bank to cash some money . How much do we need ?
There is no need to do that . I think the restaurant accepts credit cards . But it's necessary to make a budget .
Honey , you are a good accountant . So I'd better leave that to you , too .
It seems that it's all about me . Then what do you do ?
I'll take care of the order .
OK then . Well , 50 Yuan for appetizer , 200 Yuan for dinner and 200 Yuan for wine . Anything else ?
Don't forget about the dessert .
Do you have any siblings ?
Yes , I do . I am the oldest child . I have a sister and a brother . My sister is in college and my brother in high school .
How do you get along with them ?
How did you two meet ?
your daughter will be back soon . I'm going to start making dinner . You can just watch some TV in TV room if you like . We just bought a new TV with a LCD screen . The remote control is on the coffee ta
would you mind if I helped out in the kitchen instead ? I do enjoy cooking .
this is supposed to be your vacation ; we'd like you to just relax .
cooking makes me feel relaxed . So , what are we cooking ?
ok , well , we're going to make a pan of lasagne , a salad , and some garlic bread . Here's the recipe . Do you want to get the ingredients we need out of the cupboard ?
sure . We should probably pre-heat the oven right away , too .
that's a good idea . Can you set the oven to 200 degrees Celsius ?
that's a bit high for lasagne . I'll just set it at 180 degree and we can take it from there .
fine . I'll just get out the casserole dish , the saucepan , the salad bowl , and the baking sheet .
you know , I could do this myself . Why don't you go get the screwdriver and the pliers and go fix the vacuum cleaner so it works better ?
I don't think it's broken .
well , if it's not broken , then you need to learn how to vacuum better , because it doesn't look like you've vacuumed for ages !
What a busy week !
Really ! I've never seen so much work .
Right . How are you going to spend your weekend ?
I don't know . I have no idea .
Would you like to play some tennis with me before going home ?
I'm not good at sports , I have never played tennis , and I know I would be terrible .
You should try it . It ' s a great game . Come on , let me help you . I'm a good player , and a good teacher , too . What do you say ?
OK , but don't say I didn't warn you .
That was a pretty good shot , Mary .
Thanks . This is fun !
Let me help you with your serve .
No one has ever tried to show me how to play a sport before . Maybe I should learn to do something .
Of course , you can . All you need is a little help and a lot of practice .
Do you really think I can be a good player ?
Well , maybe not a Michael Zhang , but better than the average . Person would you like to play again Wednesday ?
I need to get a taxi .
We have a variety of transportation services . Would you prefer a private vehicle to a taxi ?
No , that won't be necessary . I just need a taxi .
Perhaps you'd prefer a limousine . That's such a stylish way to travel .
Just a taxi , please .
And what is your destination ?
I'm going to Rockefeller Center .
I see . What time do you want to depart from the hotel ?
I want to leave as soon as possible .
Okay , a taxi will arrive in seconds , sir .
Thank you , I'm coming down now .
My husband goes out drinking with his friends every night . I'm fed up with it .
Now , Miss Childs passed on your resume to me and I ' Ve had the chance to look it over and I must say I ' m quite impressed .
Thank you very much . I ' Ve tried to keep it short and clear . If there ' s any questions please feel free to ask me .
Well yes , I do have a number of questions , but perhaps first you could give me a brief overview I ' d like to get a little bit of an idea of your background .
Yes , of course . Well as you can see from the resume I ' m 27 and grew up in Brooklyn , New York , although our family moved to London when I was quite young , at around 16 .
Ah I see , so you were actually educated in Europe ?
Yes precisely . Although I was born in the US , I would definitely call London home . But as you see I ' Ve actually spent a lot of my life moving from country to country . My Father was in the oil business
Very interesting . So it seems you had quite an adventurous childhood .
Absolutely ! We were never still for too long . But now I ' m really looking to settle down .
I see . Okay , well let ' s move on to discuss your education shall we ?
At last ! The weekend comes again !
Yes . What will you do these two days ?
After five days ' hard work , I'm surely going to have some fun .
I always feel I ' m left high and dry with nobody to rely on .
Don ' t be fool . I ' ll always side with you .
what's your opinion about childless couples ? Will you choose to have no kids ?
to be honest , I wouldn't .
why ? Do you have to make a choice now ?
not really . But it has puzzled me for a long time .
what's the puzzle ?
my husband and I prefer to have no kids , but my mother-in-law is very traditional and wants grandkids .
oh , I see . I think the older generation tend to think in a different way .
yes . It seems she can never accept a childless marriage . We had a fight last night .
oh , really ? Maybe she is just eager to see her grandchildren .
but it's absolutely our own business to have a child or not .
definitely .
you know , I often overhear our neighbor , the young couple , fighting about how to raise their kid and I really don't want kids to spoil our happiness .
don't worry . I think in most cases , children are the glue that keeps a family together .
I guess you're right . But I still prefer to have no child .
Where to , miss ?
Hi ! Crenshaw and Hawthorne , at the Holiday Inn that is on that corner .
Sure thing . So , where are you flying in from ?
From China .
Really ? You don ' t look very Chinese to me , if you don ' t mind me saying so .
It ' s fine . I am actually from Mexico . I was in China on a business trip , visiting some local companies that manufacture bathroom products .
Wow sounds interesting ! Excuse me if I am being a bit nosy but , how old are you ?
Don ' t you know it ' s rude to ask a lady her age ?
Don ' t get me wrong ! It ' s just that you seem so young and already doing business overseas !
Well thank you ! In that case , I am 26 years old , and what about yourself ?
I am 40 years old and was born and raised here in the good old U . S of A , although I have some Colombian heritage .
Really ? That ' s great ! Do you speak some Spanish ?
Please show me the menu , Miss .
Of course . Here you are . Can I take your order now ?
Yes . I'd like an Italian soup to start with and then some fried noodles .
All right . Can I serve you anything else ?
Yes , I'd like another cup of coffee afterwards . Make it hot , please .
Is this watch yours ?
No , it isn't mine . I blundered upon it under the sofa . Do you know whose watch it is ?
Let me have a look . It's mine . I have been looking for it , but just cannot find it . It's present from my father .
Hi , I'm Jake . I'm new to the choir . What's your name ?
Hello , there , my name is Tonia .
Do you sing alto ?
Actually , I can do both soprano and alto but the director asked me to sing alto for the next perforate . What about you .
Looks like we both float back and forth . I'm baritone .
Our bass section is really good . You're going to love singing with them .
I heard them warming up earlier . You're right .
How are you doing today ?
I'm doing great . What about you ?
I'm absolutely lovely , thank you .
Everything's been good with you ?
I haven't been better . How about yourself ?
I started school recently .
Where are you going to school ?
I'm going to PCC .
How do you like it so far ?
I like it so far . My classes are pretty good right now .
I wish you luck .
I'm sorry , but I didn't catch what you said .
I said , " Do you want me to help you ? "
If you're sure you're not in a hurry , I can use a little help .
Can I see your ticket please ?
Here you are .
Ok , Mr . Smith . Do you have any bags to check ?
Just this one .
And would you prefer a window seat or an aisle seat ?
Aisle , please .
Boarding time is ten 20am .
What ' s the gate number ?
It's not good for business recently .
Not good for business ? I don't see eye to eye with you . The new policy offers new opportunities .
Bob ! Your eyes look bloodshot . Did you not sleep well ?
I had a drop too much last night . I attended a banquet given by a Chinese colleague of mine . And it was startling for me to find that people are forced to drink against their will on a Chinese table .
you have it right . Alcohol is a medium for communicating emotion in China . Drinking with business partners or would-be friends is a way of solidifying friendship , especially in Northern China .
I just felt embarrassed if I refused to drink when people toasted to me . But if I keep gulping down one cup after another , I'm afraid I would feel unfit or sick .
you lose face by refusing to drink , and the host might think you refuse to give him face . The right thing to do seems to be drinking yourself into incoherence until you throw up . This will endear you
a few guys even threw a drunken fit last night , crying hoarsely and bawling whole heaps of nonsense that I never understood .
then he must be opening his heart to the friends . In a word , as long as you demonstrate a readiness to drink more in spite of already suffering extreme discomfort , no one will jeer at you .
I need to find a new furniture set for my living room .
Where are you going to find one ?
I have no idea .
Do you want to know where I bought mine ?
Where did you get it from ?
I got it from IKEA .
How much did it cost you ?
It cost me a couple thousand for the whole set .
Is the furniture sturdy ?
The furniture is built extremely well .
I don't mind paying a lot as long as the quality is good .
I really think all Americans look alike .
You ' re crazy ! You haven ' t been here long enough .
But they do .
What makes you say that ?
They wear the same clothes , they ' re all blond , they all drive cars , they all own Parker fountain pens ; they all drink Coca Cola , and they all chew gum .
I disagree with you . They don ' t all wear the same clothes ; they ' re definitely not all blond ; they don ' t all own Parker fountain pens ; they don ' t all drink Coca Cola , and they don ' t all chew gum . I do think they all drive cars though ! But that doesn ' t have anything to do with how they look !
By the way , where's Jim ?
I'd like to send this parcel to Spain , please .
Do you want to send it by airmail or by surface mail ?
Well , how long will it take if I send it by surface mail ?
About five weeks .
Oh , dear . It won't get there for New Year's Day if I send it by surface mail . How much will it cost if I send it by air ?
I'd like to have steak and a beer .
Would you like it rare , medium or well-done ?
Are you doing the job the way I suggested ?
No , I think I didn't like your method .
Hello , I'm Lance .
Hello , my name is Paula . Nice to meet you !
What can I do for you , sir ?
What have you got this morning ?
Fruit juice , cakes and refreshments , and everything .
I'd like to have a glass of tomato juice , please .
Any cereal , sir ?
Yes , a dish of cream of wheat .
And eggs ?
Yes , bacon and eggs with buttered toast . I like my bacon very crisp .
How do you want your eggs ?
Fried , please .
Anything more , sir ?
Hello , it's nice to meet you .
I'm glad we're meeting today . Thank you .
You're welcome .
I would like to talk to you about your daughter .
Is there a problem ?
No , your daughter is great .
That's great news .
Your daughter is a wonderful student .
She isn't messing up in class ?
Of course not . Your daughter is smart and very well behaved .
Well , I'm so glad to hear that she's doing well .
What's the matter ?
Which subway should I take to get to the East Side ?
Oh , you have to take the shuttle to Grand Central .
Alison , would you like to have some more ?
No , thanks . I've had enough .
Actually you haven't had much .
To tell you the truth , I am on a diet .
That sounds ridiculous . Why ?
Jane , we are going to have a board meeting next Friday . Will you please arrange it for me ?
Certainly , Mr . Robert . But can I have your plan ?
Sure . Actually it's a routine board meeting . The things to be discussed are all written here .
Very good . May I keep it ? I need it to draw up a notice of the meeting and the agenda .
Go ahead . It's for your reference . While you are at it , make me a special agenda and don't forget to have enough room at the side for notes .
You mean you need a more detailed agenda for yourself ?
Exactly . As I am supposed to the chair of the meeting , I don't want it to get out of control .
I see . Ok , then where do you think we will have the meeting ?
The conference room on the second floor , is that ok ?
Yes , I will see that the room is ready by Friday . And I will check there are enough chairs , and the lighting and air-conditioning are all right .
Good , and please get some water , glasses and ash tray ready as well .
Sure , I will . What about the minutes ? Do you think I am responsible for that too ?
Definitely . The minutes have to be taken accurately .
But I am not familiar with the members of the board .
Oh , that's easy . I will write you a list of their names . You can make a seating plan with the names and give each one a number .
Why do you look so sad ?
I ' m in pretty bad shape . I am having an allergy all the time .
Why not go and see a doctor ?
What a surprise we've met here !
Haven't seen you for ages . Where have you been ?
I've been in China . Where were you ?
Would you like to drink some coffee ?
No , thanks . I have some trouble with my heart , my doctor recommend I to drink less .
Would you like to try some watermelon juice ? It tastes good .
You are saying he will be promoted to the general manager ?
Yeah .
Are you sure ?
Yes . I bet my bottom dollar that he will get promoted .
Just because he gets on well with everybody ?
Um , which of them is the better typist ?
Well , Mary types faster than Jones . But I think Jones types more carefully .
Is there any difference in their short hand ?
Jones can certainly take down letter more quickly , but Mary ' s short hand is the best in her class .
How about languages ?
Both of them speak excellent French . But I think Mary speaks German more fluently than Jones does .
How do you put this seat back ? I know there is a lever somewhere .
What are you doing ?
I'm getting dressed , what does it look like ?
It looks like you are about to get dressed . Did you forget we are in a car on the road ?
I'm good at this . Nobody will see anything .
Are you kidding ? You're going to cause an accident just from people gawking !
All right , pull over at that service station and I'll dress in the ladies ' room .
Can you recognize that woman , Millie ?
I think I can , Kate . It must be Karen Marsh , the actress .
I thought so . Who ' s that beside her ?
That must be Conrad Reeves .
Conrad Reeves , the actor ? It can ' t be . Let me have another look . I think you ' re right ! Isn ' t he her third husband ?
No , He must be her fourth or fifth .
Doesn ' t Karen Marsh look old !
She does , doesn ' t she ! I read she ' s twenty-nine , but she must be at least forty .
I ' m sure she is .
She was a famous actress when I was still a schoolgirl .
That was a long time ago , wasn ' t it ?
Can I help you , Ma'am ?
I need a phone card for this new cell phone .
Cool phone . What kind of phone card do you want ?
It's for my daughter who is still a senior high school student .
Then the M-Zone will be suitable .
What's special with the service ?
You know students use tested message service . And they provide favorable service for that .
That's nice . And I need a pre-paid phone card .
Oh , there is a sales promotion for it now .
Oh , good . Then what is it ?
If you buy a pre-paid phone card worth 100 yuan today , you will get 50 yuan for free .
May I have two of them ?
Sure . As many as you want .
These three hours chatting with you have been very ... interesting . Could you please tell us why we're here ?
I want a new brand image . Something creative , something strong . Make no mistake , something with ... resolve !
What is our time frame ?
Would you like to come by and play bridge ?
Well , let's see . Why don't we go dancing for a change ? We haven't done that for a long time .
Well , to tell the truth , I don't really feel like it tonight . I had a pretty hard day and I'm sort of tired .
Hmm . Well , in that case , we could go to the movies .
Oh , we always go to the movies . Can ' t we do something different ?
Well , do you have any suggestions ?
Let's see . How do you feel about playing bridge ?
It's OK with me , but we don't have any beer and things .
Well , shall I call Janet and ask her and Tom to come over , and I'll go to the store and buy some stuff .
What is the most enjoyable part about your job ?
I think meeting people . There are people from all over the country , all over the world , all walks of life which is the most interesting part of my job .
What do you find annoying ?
No . 164 in lane 3 achieved 11 ' 16 in the 100 meter dash . Isn't that something ?
Yeah . He's the most experienced athlete in the field .
He won the first place !
What can I do for you today ?
I need to return a book .
Can I do anything else for you ?
I would also like to check out this video .
Is that all ?
Yes , just the video .
May I see your library card ?
Here you go .
You have to take care of this video .
Oh , I will .
You will be fined if you damage it .
Did you like the party ?
Not particularly . I was rather disappointed .
Why ? What had you expected ?
You know Ernie , it seems we both like the same artists .
Yes , we do . I think we have the same musical tastes .
But if we're going to start a band , we have to be able to sing and dance . Can you do that ?
I'm not a very good singer , but I'm a really great dancer ! I love hip hop dancing .
Lucy , take my picture here , OK ?
Sure . Just a minute . Let me take my camera out .
What's the matter ?
I'm not sure .
Is it broken ?
I hope not ! Oh , I see .
What is it ?
The batteries are worn down . I need replace them .
Where can we get batteries ?
All photography shops carry them .
I wonder what we should have for dinner this evening .
Are you asking me ?
Yes , I am . I really don't feel much like cooking , but the family must eat .
Well , you know me . I can always eat pizza , or spaghetti .
So I've noticed . You're putting on a little weight , aren't you ?
I know . Don't remind me . I'm starting a new diet the day after tomorrow .
It is quite important to be a good listener in the interview .
Listening carefully can show you understand and respect the speaker .
It can show your good attainment as well .
Besides , you can pick up some helpful information from the talk .
First of all , you should keep proper posture and make eye contact with the speaker with a smile .
To show that you have understood what is said , you can nod or ask simple questions at the right time .
And your statement should be clear and brief to the point .
Never should you interrupt on a unfamiliar topic .
Sure , in order not to leave a bad impression on the interviewer .
Additionally , don't show any impatience to a repeated topic .
Don't be absent-minded even when you are not interested in the talk .
What are you studying all day long for ? It ' s summer vacation !
I know ! I hate it ! But I ' m taking this crash course in math .
Why ?
I have to take my exams for getting into the university , so I need to prepare .
Do you think it will help ?
It has to ! I ' Ve been studying every day , eight hours a day ! I don ' t know , but the school has a great success record .
Hmm ... Maybe I should sign up too .
What do you think of the play showed last night ?
I think there's too much violence and it did no good to my little boy .
Yes , I turned it off when the fight got heated in it .
My goodness ! You ' re kidding !
No . I ' m serious . I ' m going to quit my job .
That ' s amazing ! You got a good pay here , didn ' t you ?
It ' s true . But I can ' t show my abilities .
Come on ! Don ' t be silly !
Your present job is something better . Why do you change ?
Tyler residence .
Is this Naomi ?
No , this is her sister , Nancy .
You sure sound like Naomi .
Oh . Can I take a message ?
Sure . Please tell her that Andy called .
Okay . I'll give her the message .
Thanks .
How was your self-help trip ?
Excellent . As soon as we landed , we boarded a bus to Disneyland . I love Mickey Mouse . Janet and I spent the entire first day going on all of the rides .
Didn't you feel any jet lag from the change in time zones ?
I felt fine . I must have been too excited to notice .
Can you tell which team seems to win ?
Hard to say . Now the score is in our favor .
Yes . Our guest team is really tough .
Good morning .
Good morning . May I help you ?
I want to place a long-distance call to London . Is this the right counter ?
Yes . Here's a booking form . Please write down the number you wish to call , the name of the person you want to talk to , and your own name for our reference .
All right . Can you tell me when I will be able to get through ?
It's hard to say . It depends on how busy the lines are . Please take a seat over there . We'll try to put you through as soon as possible .
Good afternoon , sir . May I help you ?
I want to post this package to the United States .
Do you want to mail it by air or by sea ?
You are friend of Janet , right ? I am Andrew , Andrew Smith .
Nice to meet you , Andrew . I am Noirin , Noirin O'Neil .
I'm sorry , I didn't quite catch that .
is that your rabbit ?
yes , I just adopted her from the humane society this weekend .
that's good of you . why did you decide to get a rabbit .
well , i wanted to get a pet that wouldn't disturb the neighbors . at the same time , I wanted a pet that would be affectionate .
rabbits aren't usually that affectionate , are they ?
if you cuddle them a lot when they are very young , they can be just as affectionate as dogs or cats .
i didn't know that . Are rabbits difficult to take care of ?
not really . I went to the veterinarian to get her vaccinated and she told me that all I needed to do was to make sure to trim its nails from time to time , to give her food and water , and to clean its
that sounds pretty easy . Do rabbits make your house smell ?
No , rabbits aren't very stinky . As long as your clean the cage on a regular basis , it's not too bad .
can you train a rabbit to do things ?
you can't train them like you can train dogs , but you can train them to do some things . For example , you can train them to go the bathroom in a special rabbit toilet .
that's amazing ! Has she bitten you yet ?
Have you a full-day trip ?
Yes , of course . There are various forms of travel .
Do I have to book the tour right now ?
Hello , May I help you ?
Yes , we're interested in seeing the rooms for rent .
Oh , how nice ! there are bright rooms and the house is very quiet .
That is exactly what we're looking for .
Well , each room is 40 dollars a week .
That sounds all right to us .
When do you want to move in ?
How about tomorrow afternoon ?
Fine , I'll be expecting you .
You voted , right ?
You know I did .
Who did you vote for ?
I voted for Obama , of course !
Can you believe that he actually won ?
I knew he would win .
I didn ' t think he would .
He was the top candidate .
I figured people wouldn ' t vote for him because he ' s African American .
That just goes to show that America is finally turning over a new leaf .
You ' re absolutely right .
Good afternoon , Miss .
Good afternoon . I would like my hair done .
What style do you want ?
I'd like to try a new hair-style . Could you show me some pictures of hair styles ?
Sure . Here you are .
Thanks . Please give me the style in this picture here but make the wave longer . I would like hair spray , please .
Yes , Miss . Is that all right ?
Beautifully done .
And would you like a manicure ?
No , thanks . How much should I pay ?
One hundred yuan , please .
Here you are .
Pam , where's the closest ATM ?
It's not that far . Do you see that Yellow building over there ?
The big one or the small one ?
The big one .
Yes .
It's right next to it , on the right .
Do you know if there's a convenience store around here ?
I don't think there's one around here . The closest one is on 3rd street , but that's probably closed now .
I really need to get some things before I leave .
Well , you could go down to 22nd street . There are lot of stores down there that are open 24 hours a day .
Can I take the subway to get there ?
Yes , but that'll probably take about half an hour . You should just take a cab .
Won't that be expensive ?
I'm going to Japan this year on vacation .
Have you ever been to America ?
No , but I'd really like to .
David , would you like something to eat ?
No , I'm full .
Do you want something to drink ?
Yes , I'd like some coffee .
Sorry , I don't have any coffee .
That's OK . I'll have a glass of water .
A small glass , or a big one ?
Small please .
Here you are .
Thanks .
We'd better cover the porcelain ware against All Risks .
All right . Our insurance coverage is 110 % of the invoice value , up to the port of destination only .
I'd like to have the insurance of the goods covered up to 130 % of the invoice amount .
Ok , this premium for the difference between 130 % and 110 % of the invoice value should be borne by the buyer .
Hello , can I help you ?
Yes . I ' m looking for something to wear to a formal party .
What dress size do you wear ?
Medium , a woman ' s size 10 or 12 .
This dress is the latest fashion form Paris . It ' s made of pure silk . And this silk blouse would go with this skirt . Do you like it ?
Yes .
Why don ' t you try it on and see how you feel about it ?
That ' s a great idea . I ' ll try it on .
How does that feel ?
It feels very good .
You look wonderful .
Okay . I ' ll take it . Thank you very much .
Good morning , may I help you ?
We'd like to take a tour to Florence .
That's a beautiful city . When do you want to go there ?
We have got a 2 weeks ' vocation and we plan to leave on Thursday .
How much would it cost to send this special delivery to England ?
Just a second . I'll have to check that . Anything else I can do for you ?
Yes . I'd like to send a $ 20 money order .
That looks like a bad accident .
Yeah , should we get out and help ?
No , there ' s a police car behind us . He ' ll stop .
Looks like the one guy lost control in all this rain , and the other one hit him .
Yeah . It ' s pretty bad , that car looks like a coke can .
These accidents always cause traffic jams on rainy days .
Yeah , it looks like we ' re in for a long drive .
Ah , well . Put on the news . I got up late and missed it .
Can I help you ?
Have you got the latest ONXIU magazine ?
Yes , but it's checked out .
What a pity ! I missed it again .
It's popular you know . You want to reserve it ?
Yes , please .
Fill out this form and we will send you a note when we get the book .
Thank you . What shall I do when I check out these books ?
Take the card , and fill in your name and library card number .
Hi , how ' re you doing ?
Terrible .
Oh , what ' s the matter ?
I ' Ve got a fever and really a bad headache .
Oh , that ' s too bad . Why don ' t you take some aspirin ?
I ' Ve already tried some but it didn ' t help .
Well , it ' s necessary for you to see a doctor .
Yeah , I guess I should .
Well , you ' d better get some rest .
Thank you very much .
What ' s wrong ?
I got laid off today .
Oh no ! That ' s terrible !
Yeah .
What happened ?
My boss said I didn ' t have enough skills to do the job well .
What are you going to do ?
How do I apply to an American university ?
You should go to the library to find some information about American universities , and write to the Admission Office . Then the Admission Office will send you application forms and other related materials . From experience , many applicants write to several universities instead of just one .
I was told that it took a lot of time and effort to apply .
That is true . I'll list for you the requirements of almost all the universities . First of all , you need official transcripts of your undergraduate work , three letters of recommendation from your professors who know your competence , and the official TOEFL ( Test of English as a Foreign Language ) score ( It's usually 550 ) . Then you need a financial guarantee , and an application fee of 25 dollars .
What's to come next ?
If they agree to enroll you , they will send you a TAP - 66 Form . With TAP - 66 , you can apply for a passport from our government , and then apply for a visa from the US Embassy in Beijing .
How long will it take to go over all the procedures ?
From 3 to 6 months if everything goes well .
Thank you . I appreciate all your help .
Excuse me , sir . I am coming to apply for the position of accountant .
Oh , please sit down . What university did you graduate from ?
I graduated from Tianjin College of Commerce .
What was your major at college ?
My major was accounting .
Can you name some of the courses you completed in relation to accounting ?
Sure . I took such courses as accounting principles , commercial accounting , cost accounting , industrial accounting , electronic data processing accounting , and accounting involved in foreign capital enterprises .
What kind of work are you doing now ?
I'm engaged in accounting .
What are your responsibilities in your present work ?
My work involves various routine bookkeeping and basic accounting tasks including journal entries , verifying data and reconciling discrepancies , preparing detailed reports from raw data , and checking accounting documents for completeness , mathematical accuracy and consistency .
Are you familiar with the PRC Financial and Tax Regulations ?
I think so .
Can you tell me something about this balance sheet now ?
Of course . This balance sheet contains three major sections , that is , assets , liabilities and owner's equity . So , you see , the total current liabilities of your company are $ 3,372 , 000 , and the owner's equity is $ 5,400 , 000 . That means that the total assets , which is equal to the sum of the creditor's and the owner's equities , are $ 8,772 , 000 .
What's the creditor's equity ?
Oh you look awful ! What ' s the matter ?
Oh ! I feel really under the weather . I ' Ve got a sore throat and a bad cough .
Oh dear . Maybe you ' Ve caught a cold .
Yes , I ' Ve had lots of overtime to do recently and I haven ' t slept much at all .
Well then , you should get some rest this weekend and don ' t go out drinking .
Hi , Mike . I am going to move on the first of next month .
Congratulations ! So , have you started planning your move ?
Yes , I am trying to find good movers now . Do you know any ?
Not really .
What did you do for your last move ?
Since I did not have much staff , I asked my cousin to help me out .
Oh . that's very nice of him .
Yeah , it was . But I still have some information that I collected last time , and if you want , I will give it to you .
How was your vacation in Paris ?
Mr . Phillips ? I have a request here from purchasing that needs your approval .
Let me take a look . This is for a 486 computer with modem . Who ' s it going to ?
I believe it ' s going to Ms . Wilson ' s office .
I hate carrying so much cash with me .
Don't you have a credit card ?
I have one but it can only be used in my country .
Why don't you change the cash to traveler's checks ? It's much more convenient and safer . When you are abroad , you can cash them .
I want to buy a rain coat . Could you please show me one ?
With pleasure . What color do you like ?
I like yellow best . How much does it cost ?
It costs 275 yuan , Miss .
It's nice , but that's very steep for a rain coat . Could you give me a 20 percent discount ?
Sorry , we don't give discounts .
Good morning , I am here for my interview .
Hello , nice to meet you . I ' m Mr . Gotcha . Have any trouble finding the place ?
No problem .
So why don ' t you tell me why you are interested in changing positions ?
Unfortunately , our company is shutting down due to the economy .
What would you consider your strengths ?
I am probably best at researching for marketing purposes .
What is your biggest weakness ?
I tend to get bored easily and so love to keep myself challenged .
I think the biggest environment problem in my country is air pollution .
Yes , I agree . The air here is much more polluted than in my country . Of course , my country is more agricultural and has much less industry .
We have reduced emission of air pollutants in recent years , but cars are still a major source of them . Factories have become cleaner as stricter environment pollution law have been introduced .
The problem is now on a truly global scale . I don't believe that any single country can do anything about it .
Excuse me , can you suggest a good book for me to read ?
Yes , they are all on the shelf .
Do you have an English-Chinese dictionary ?
Oh , no . It seems that I've lost my train ticket .
Are you kidding ? The train leaves in an hour . Where did you put it ?
It was in my pocket , but now I can't find it .
Is it in the other pocket ?
No , it is not here . Damn it ! I'm going to have to buy another ticket .
Let's go to the inquiry desk first to check whether anyone has got it and turned it in .
Hi , I ' m testify chen , the tour guide for the Ged Agency . We have a reservation of twenty room for tonight .
Please to meet you Mrs Chen . My name is Joy . Welcome to the hotel . Here is the keys , registration slips and breakfast description . Breakfast will be served from seven tomorrow morning . Is there any change of your schedule ?
No . Our check out time is still be eight thirty tomorrow .
And we arrange a morning call at seven thirty . Is that be fine ?
That ' s alright .
Please put your luggage outside your room by eight . The bail-boy will pick them up .
Thank you .
That was delicious .
There's still a lot left-have some more !
Do I need a visa ?
No , I shouldn ' t think so . But you must take your passport of course .
Yes , I know . I must get my traveler ' s check and some foreign currency .
Yes , you need the traveler ' s check but you needn ' t get any foreign currency . You can have my US Dollars , I don ' t need them .
Really ? That ' s very good of you , Helen . But I must get a new suitcase , my old one needs repairing .
You needn ' t buy one . You can have mine .
That ' s very kind of you , Helen . I hope you don ' t mind my leaving you like this . I need a holiday . It won ' t be long .
What kind of strong suit do you get ?
I am accomplished in English and computer . Besides , I've got a Teacher's Certificate .
Do you want to be an instructor in the future ?
Welcome to Flower Power , sir . What can I get for you ?
I'd like a dozen long-stemmed roses .
Would you like them delivered ?
Yes , I'd like them sent to this address .
Do you want to sign the card ?
No , could you just write your secret admirer on it for me ? I don't want her to recognize my handwriting .
Could you introduce some whitening products for me ?
Please forgive me just being frankly , madam . You don't need whitening products because you look pretty white . But you have freckles on your face .
Then what kind of product can fade freckles ?
I recommend Nisei products . This brand has a face cream which is effective on fading freckles .
How much is it ?
419 yuan .
It is too expensive for me . Do you have something cheaper ?
Jenny , Can you come and help me ?
Mom , what should I do ?
It's dusty everywhere in the house . Can you help me do the housecleaning ?
OK . I will call Peter to clean it together .
Thank you . I'm very glad to be here . As Ms . Tina said , the purpose of my presentation today is to familiarize you with the new EBB . As you probably know , EBB stands for Electronic Book Player . Our company put the original EBB on the market a year ago , but we have since all developed an improved model which we believe will be a big seller in both China and the U . S .
Ms . Yang , can you tell us in what ways the new EBB is better than the old model ?
Certainly . First of all , the old model had a rather small screen , so not much information could appear at one time . So on the new model , we have made the screen much bigger and ...
Excuse me , but what are the Mbps mainly used for ?
Oh , there are many uses and I'll explain them in detail a little later . First , I'd like to ...
Before you go on , Ms Yang , could you tell us if the original EBB sold well in the U . S . ?
Now , David , can I get you a drink ? What will you have ?
Coffee , please .
What about you , Mary ?
Do you know Sally ?
Sally ? She is a bachelor girl . She is an excellent designer . Many of the company's advertisements are her child trains .
Why is she still single ? She must have a face that would stop a clock .
I have been getting headaches almost every day lately .
Have you just started getting a lot of headaches ?
I never had very many headaches before , but the last few weeks I have been getting a lot of them .
Have you had any unusually stressful situations in your life lately ?
My mother just passed away last Tuesday .
I ' m sorry . How about sleep ? Are you getting enough rest ?
I have been working really hard , and sleep has not been a priority .
Have you bumped your head or fallen lately ?
No , I haven ' t hit my head .
That was a great dinner . I didn't know that you knew how yo cook .
I'm glad you liked it . Are you ready for dessert ?
I don't know . I'm pretty full . What are we having ?
I made strawberry shortcake .
Ooh , that's my favorite . Maybe I'll have a small slice .
Great . Would you like coffee or tea with that ?
I'll have a cup of tea .
Do you take cream or sugar with your tea ?
Actually , could I have some milk with that ?
Definitely . Would you like skim or whole milk ?
Skim , please . That'd be very nice . Thanks ... oh no . Janna , I'm so sorry , but I've got to go .
What happened ?
I just got a message from my sister saying that she's been in a car accident . I need to go pick her up .
I'll go with you . Where is she ?
She's on the M40 , near Reading .
Is she alright ?
I don't know , she didn't say . I'm so sorry about this .
Don't worry . Family comes first . Come on , let's go .
Actually , I've only got a two-seater . I'll have to go on my own .
Ok . Just call me if you need anything then .
Hi ! I need to request a wake-up call for tomorrow morning .
What time do you want the call ?
I need two calls , one at 7 and another at 7 fifteen .
We can certainly do that . Expect a call from us at 7 o'colock and then again at 7 fifteen .
Actually , can I change the latter wake-up call to 7 thirty . am ?
I can certainly do that . Is there anything else ?
I can't think of anything . If I do think of something , I'll be sure to call again .
Hi , Sara , what are you reading ?
Hi , John , I am trying to find a carpenter .
Why ?
Well , I want to build a deck in my back yard .
What for ?
So I can have a special place to hang out with friends , and also do some barbecuing on weekends .
That sounds cool . Do you mind if I recommend myself for the job ?
You ? Do you have a carpenter's license ?
Yes , of course . But I only freelance on weekends with my uncle .
Wow ! That's cool . So , let me give you some details about the deck I want .
Please go ahead , I am listening .
I'd like my deck to be at the same level as the back door .
Is your back door higher than the ground level ?
Yes , the back door is about four or five steps higher than the ground .
Okay , then you need a deck with a guardrail .
I don't like things to be fancy .
Don't worry . I will build your deck with a simple but classic look .
Hmm , that's good . Can you use cedar or redwood to build it ?
Cedar is a good choice .
Hey Steve . When's the next time you're going to play golf ?
I'm going out this Saturday .
Do you already have a foursome ?
Unfortunately , we do . Let's plan for something together for Wednesday . We can go right after work .
That sounds good . Where do you want to play ?
We won't have much time , so let's play somewhere close to work .
How about Bellevue ? It's pretty close .
How much does it cost over there ?
Twilight rates are 21 dollars .
That's pretty good . Let's do it .
Aright . I'll get a tee time for Wednesday at about 4
Make it 4
Ok . I'll call you later when I get a tee time .
Sounds good . I'll see you on Wednesday then .
Aright . Have fun on Saturday .
Bob , did you see our supervisor ? I need him to sign this paper .
He is in his office , but you'd better choose your words carefully while talking to him .
What's up ?
Nothing . But he is in a bad mood today .
Thanks for the warning .
hi , I'm Lucas , I just moved in next door .
oh , hi Lucas , come on in . I'm Barbara . Nice to meet you .
nice to meet you too .
would you like something to drink ? I've got tea and some grape juice .
thanks . Some tea would be nice . Chinese tea is great . I really like your tea set . Where did you get it ?
oh , there is a supermarket not far from here . But there is also a tea house around the corner , where you can get tea and a tea set as well .
oh yeah , I saw the tea house the other day . I think I might go and have a look sometime . It's a nice neighborhood here .
you are right about that . It's quiet and very convenient . You can get to the bus and the subway stations within ten minutes'walk . There's a grocery store , a book store , a gym , and many restaurants
there's a gym nearby ? That's exciting ! I really want to start to go to gym as soon as possible . I've been lazy this summer holiday and have put on some weight .
well , if you want we can go together sometime . Actually I was thinking of going this afternoon , if you like , you can join me and I can show you the neighborhood along the way .
It's my first visit to Prague , I'll be here for three days for a conference , then I have a day on my own to do some sightseeing before I head back home . What do you suggest I see when I'm here ?
There are many interesting places you should be sure to see . One problem is transportation , however . Because the city is very old , the roads are narrow and congested . If you only have three or four days to visit , you don't want to spend them waiting in traffic in a cab . I suggest you take the subway .
The subway ? But is there a subway station next to my hotel ? I have to go between the conference center and the hotel several times a day ...
No worries , there's a subway station at the conference center itself , and a shuttle from your hotel to the conference center that takes only 5 minutes . When you do your personal sightseeing , you can first take the shuttle to the conference center , then hop on the metro .
Is it expensive to ride on the underground ?
You can get a daily pass that will allow you to travel unlimited for the whole day for about 6 dollars . Otherwise , you can pay by trip , which is about 50 cents to 2 dollars each trip , depending on how far you go .
Is it easy to get lost ?
Have you met John recently ?
I saw him last week . It seems he was a bit queer in the head .
Yes , he has been like that since his accident .
Alice , I never knew you had such a lovely voice . You really can sing , can't you ?
Thanks , Mark . I used to be a member of the school choir .
No wonder you can control your voice so well . You are a professional singer .
Well , you are flattering me . I wouldn't say I am a professional , but I did receive some training at school . My music teacher used to be a professional singer .
Well , a good teacher makes good students .
We are interested in placing a large order for your wool carpet .
How much would you like ?
10,000 sq . m . You should give us a discount for such a large quantity .
A higher discount will be given for a big order , so we are willing to give you a 5 % discount this time .
The Iranians will give us a 10 % discount if such a high order is placed with them . No doubt you know an incentive discount encourages the buyers and helps expand seller's business .
Laura told me today that she has a friend with a car for sale .
Oh , she did ? Then it's a used car of course .
Yes , it's used , but she said it was in very good shape . It's a small foreign car .
What else did she tell you ? Did she tell you how many miles there are on it ?
She thinks it has about twenty-five or thirty thousand miles .
That's not bad . What about the price ? Did she tell you how much her friend wants for the car ?
Three thousand dollars .
Three thousand ! That's almost too good to be true . Did she say why her friend wants to sell it ?
He lives in the city and you know how expensive it is to keep a car in the city .
Well , we can see it for ourselves . Did she tell you when we can go and look at it ?
It gives me great pleasure to introduce Mr ... eh Mr ...
Miss !
Yeah ! May I introduce Mis ... eh ... Miss ...
My name is Jane Brown !
I am looking for a pan .
No problem . What size would you like ?
A big one would be nice .
How about this one ? It's our biggest -- 16 " in diameter .
Oh , yes . I like that one . But it's too heavy .
Okay , try this one . It's made of aluminum .
Oh , yes , this is much better . But it has an aluminum handle .
Here you go . Same pan , but with a state-of-the-art , heat-resistant plastic handle .
Yes , that's perfect . I'll take it .
Great . Will that be cash or charge ?
Oh , wait a minute . What about a lid for the pan ?
How about 15 % the first six months and the second six months at 12 % with a guarantee of 3000 units ?
That's a lot to sell with very low profit margins .
It's about the best we can do , Smith . We need to hammer something out today . If I go back empty-handed , I may be coming back to you soon to ask for a job .
OK . 17 % the first six months , 14 % for the second .
Good . Let's iron out the remaining details . When do you want to take delivery ?
We'd like you to execute the first order by the 31 st .
Let me run through this again , the first shipment for 1500 units to be delivered in 27 days by the 31 st .
Right . We couldn't handle much larger shipments .
Fine . But I'd prefer the first shipment to be 1000 units , the next 2000 . The 31 st is quite soon , I can't guarantee 1500 .
I can agree to that . Well , if there's nothing else , I think we've settled everything .
Open your suitcase please .
Ok , here you are .
Do you have anything do declare ?
No , I don't .
Any cigarettes ? Baker ?
Yes , I have two cotton of cigarettes one bottle of whisky .
What is the white powder ? Are they drugs ?
No , this is the medicine for the stomach .
May I open one of those ? Let me taste it .
Too ... your face is really oily ... perfect !
Why ? Are you planning to stir-fry my face ?
Nope . I'm going to tell your fortune . So ... the oilier , the better .
You've gone bonkers , Jen .
It's facial paper , and it fits into the rings of my binder ! It's magical .
Excuse me , I'd like to send this parcel .
What's in it , please ?
Just a few shirts .
OK . You may wrap it now . Please fill in this form and label it . ( after a moment ) Would you like it registered ?
No , I'd rather send it by ordinary mail .
Nine dollars and fifty cents .
Here you are .
Here's the receipt .
Thank you so much .
Welcome to China , Mr . White .
How do you do , Ms . Chi ?
Welcome to this corporation , Mr . White . Won ' t you please sit down ?
Thank you .
Our representative in your country faxed a letter that you showed an interest in some of our products on display at the Oct . Exhibition there . Now we'd like to know if you have any specific requirements in mind .
Yes , we have . I ' Ve brought with me a list of the quantity of your products we ' d like to import for the second half of this year . Here is a copy of it .
Good . Well , Mr . White , most of the items listed are available this year . I hope we can come to an agreement and sign the contracts soon to enable timely delivery .
I hope so , too . Now I'd like some of your sales literature and a price list for all of your export articles .
Here are our catalog and price list . The catalog lists all the commodities we export , and the price list gives indicative prices for all our export articles .
Thank you , Ms Chi . What are your normal export terms ?
We normally export CFR .
What commission do you usually pay for your exports ? As you know , we import on commission basis .
That can be discussed .
All right . When can we meet again for more specific details , Ms Chi ?
What about tomorrow morning at 9 ? I'll come over to your hotel .
Wow , that terrible movie is finally over . Next time I ' m picking the film , because I don ' t want to end up seeing a chick flick .
Well you should have picked , in the end you always complain about everything .
Not everything , just this film . Even the title is ridiculous . and it ' s so long , those are the two and a half most wasted hours of my life , so much so that I ' m thinking about asking them to give me my money back .
I ' m thinking of taking you back home . I thought we could have a nice evening , but you ' re always so negative .
I ' m only complaining about a movie that I could have rented or bought and then thrown in the garbage .
You see , that ' s what I ' m talking about , I can ' t stand your sarcastic jokes anymore
Next time , go with your gay friend who is more in touch with his feelings .
Well he ' s more of a man than you are ; at least he appreciates love stories .
Love stories ? More like one-night-stands .
Don ' t criticize Mario or else I ' ll start on those fat , drunk friends of yours ; they ' re no saints .
My friends ? Fat ? What about those whales you call friends ?
Robert , this is my friend , Mrs . Smith .
Hi , Nice to meet you .
Nice to meet you too .
Mrs . Smith , what do you do for work ?
I'm a doctor .
Oh . Where do you work ?
New York University hospital in New York City . What do you do ?
I'm a teacher .
What do you teach ?
I teach English .
Where ?
At a high school in New Jersey .
That's nice . How old are you ?
I found it at a garage sale once .
What a find ! So , how much does it cost ?
Well , because I like you ... ninety bucks .
Ninety dollars is pretty steep . I'll take it for sixty bucks .
Sixty bucks ? No-can-do , son . You'll be lucky if I go down to eighty-five .
Madam , I made a close study of the draft contract yesterday evening . I think there are something needs to modify .
Which terms ?
First , about the terms of payment . Your draft contract says that payment is to be made by D \ A . This is not our practice . We prefer to have the payment made by L \ C through a negotiating bank in America .
Good . I will add this to the contract .
The second thing I would like to point out , that is packaging . It's stipulated in the contract that all the computer parts should be packed in cardboard boxes . But I think the wooden cases are much safer .
Well , you are right . Is there anything else ?
As far as the contract stipulations are concerned , there is nothing more . Thank you very much .
Hello , are you interested in this Honda ?
Hi , I am just looking .
It's a good car .
What year is it ?
1999 .
How about the mileage ?
6,000 miles , all highway mileage .
What do you mean 7B
Highway miles are not as bad as local miles . They do not hurt car as much .
Oh , why such a high mileage ?
The owner was commuting everyday crossing the state line .
Okay . Does this car have a warranty ?
One month .
How do I make sure I am not buying a junk ?
You'll check it out anyway you want . You can take it to a garage .
How much is it ?
$ 5,900 .
I'll have to think about it .
Leave your phone number , and I will give you a call if the price gets reduced .
Hi , Nancy . How are you doing ?
Hi , Tom . Want a cup of coffee ?
Not right now . I've got to get another car and my old one is blown up .
Oh , hey , did you look in the classified ads ?
You mean used cars ?
No , Ah ... single sellers .
Well , yeah , but I'd be getting somebody else's problems .
Uh huh . How about a used car ? They've got good ones now .
It's the same kind of deal though , you know , you never know what you're going to get .
Oh , hey , how about a new car ? They've got easy loans now . You'd feel so good driving a new car .
Mr . Smith , I have been doing some industry research and was shocked to learn that the average salary for a position that is similar to mine pays on average $ 2,000 more per year than I am c
What are you basing this information on ?
First and secondary research . I hope that you can address this concern immediately as i find it very disturbing .
Yes , I will . We are very happy with your performance and want to continue our woodworking relationship .
I wish the same . As such , I hope you will seriously consider a pay increase .
Miss Liu , have we received the fax from MS Company yet ?
Let me check - - oh , here it is . It just arrived a few minutes ago .
Excellent . I have been expecting it .
Is it important ?
You bet it is . It's about the new contract .
What's the date today Mr . Brown ? I don't have a calendar .
Today is Tuesday , 25th September , 2001 .
25th Sep ? Oh , I have an appointment tonight .
What time is your appointment ?
It is at 8 o'clock .
What time is now ? Do you have the correct time ?
I don't know what time it is .
It must be about 6 o'clock .
I have to go now . I don't want to be late .
I feel that Bob ' s father-in-law is a hard nut to crack .
You have taken words out of my mouth . He is a tough customer .
Hey honey , how was your day ?
It was alright . I ran into Bill and we got to talking for a while . He ' s in a bit of a jam .
Why ? What happened ?
Well , his son had an accident and Bill doesn ' t have health insurance . This really got me thinking , and I wondered if we shouldn ' t look into a couple of different HMO ' s .
Yeah , you ' re right . We aren ' t getting any younger and our kids are getting older .
Exactly ! I searched on the web and found a couple of HMO ' s with low co-pays and good coverage . The deductibles are low , too .
Sounds good , although , do you think we can qualify for insurance ? Those insurance companies are real pirates when it comes to money .
Well , we don ' t have any pre-existing illnesses or conditions , so we should be fine .
I wish our company or country provided us with healthcare .
Could you cover for me on Tuesday ? I'm not coming back until Wednesday .
Sure . What ' s up ?
We're going to the beach for the weekend .
Are you going fishing ?
No . Just some fun in the sun . We really need to get away and relax for a few days .
Oh ! You're engaged ! What a beautiful engagement ring ! Who to ?
Of course Mike . Who else ? We fell in love at first sight .
When's the wedding going to be ?
We haven't decided yet . There are a lot of things to sort out , you know .
Are you having a big wedding ?
Yes , I've always dream of having a big wedding .
But what do you say about that ?
I don't really enjoy big occasions , but I think I ' ll come round to the idea in the end , It only happens once in a lifetime .
Darling , I have news for you . Bobby and his wife , Evelyn , are going to have a baby soon .
Really ? I thought his wife couldn ' t have a baby .
Actually they ' re expecting the baby to come on my birthday .
Oh , what a coincidence ! I bet Bobby must be very happy about it . He likes children and always wants a child of his own .
In fact , they ' re both very excited about the coming baby . Evelyn imagines what their baby would be look like , since one parent is American and the other one is Chinese .
Oh , right . Now I know why they would want to see our boy . It ' s hard to imagine the wonder ! Are they expecting a boy or a girl ?
It ' s still a mystery . Because Evelyn is only three-month pregnant . But she begins to take her maternity leave now .
what a nice uniform !
thanks ; do you like it ?
not really . I was being sarcastic . Does it come with the job ?
yes , everyone on the sales floor has to wear one . They're supposed to make us look more professional .
they're not actually that bad . They could be worse . What do you think about it ?
I don't mind it , actually . I don't have to worry about what I'm going to wear every day .
so are you enjoying your new job ?
it's much better than my old one . My new boss is great .
how do you like working in sales ?
I like the fact that I get to work with people . It makes the day go by much faster .
that's good . Have you met Jane yet ? She's the intern in the international travel department .
yeah , I've met her . She's a genius saleswoman !
I know ! She could sell fridges to Eskimos !
how do you know her ?
she's my cousin .
why didn't you tell me about that before ?
I don't know . I didn't think it was that interesting .
well , now that I know that , maybe we should all go out for dinner sometime .
Martin ? Did you remember to bring back that software I lent you ?
Oh , Kate ! I ' m sorry . It completely slipped my mind !
That ' s okay , Martin . If you could just bring it in tomorrow , I ' d appreciate it .
Ann , it's terrible !
What's up ?
Look , this is a pimple !
Oh , I think it is .
How come ?
I think it's because of your bad habits !
I have no bad habit . I sleep eight hours a day , never eat spicy food , clean the face twice a day and so on . I have done a lot .
I know you have done a lot , but you always sleep very late . Sleeping eight hours a day doesn't mean it is healthy . Sleeping after 12 is hurtful to our body , and I think this is your problem .
I wasn't aware of that !
I would like high speed internet installed in my house .
You have to make an appointment before we can come out and install it .
I'd like to make an appointment right now .
What day are you available ?
I would like to have it done this Friday .
Three o'clock is the only time we can come in .
Is it possible for someone to come a little earlier ?
I'm sorry , but that's our only available time .
How about Saturday ?
We're completely open on Saturday .
Can you come over at 11
Is the table free ?
No , sir . Would you rather sit near the dance floor ?
I don't think so . Is that table all right ?
How do you feel ?
I like the style but it is a little tight in the waist .
Here is the bigger size .
Good morning , is there anything I can do for you ?
Can you enlarge the picture ?
Yes , what size do you want ?
I want it enlarged to 5 inches .
Do you play mahjong ?
Hello , there . How can I help ?
Hello . I'm hoping to buy some Treasury Certificates today . Are they available ?
Certainly , Visible Treasury Certificates . Then you can get a receipt from the savings office as proof of payment . Hence the ' visible ' , you can see it .
Ah , right . How much do I need to spend ?
The minimum is 100 RIB , and the maximum is 500,000 RIB .
How about Bearer Certificates ? Are they different ?
Hey , Tom , what to go for a run ?
No thanks . I like to run in the morning . I ran a couple of miles when I woke up today .
I try to do that , but I can ' t get up early enough .
I couldn ' t either at first , but you get used to it .
It ' s so hot at lunchtime ; I ' d rather run in the morning .
Well , why don ' t you come tomorrow ? I ' ll stop by your house on my way out .
I could try , but I can ' t say for sure if I ' ll get up in time . What time do you want to go ?
I ' ll give you a call around 6:00 and stop by around 6:30 .
O . K . , maybe if I have someone to go with , I ' ll be able to get up in time for a jog .
Great , I ' ll see you then .
Did you watch the old-fashioned wrestling game last night ?
Yes , of course . And I'm amazed the those karate and judo boys were so helpless before the wrestlers .
Can I help you ?
Yes . I sent in my resume at the end of last week . I'm applying for the accounts assistant position .
May I have your name please ?
My name is Judy Liao . That's spelled L I A O .
Alright ... And did you have some specific questions about your application ?
Not really . I was in the neighborhood , and I just wanted to stop in to see if you received my resume .
Oh , that's no problem . Just give me a moment , and I can check . Judy Liao . Let's see ... Yes , here it is . Judy Liao . We have received your resume .
Thank you .
Is there anything else I can help you with ?
Yes , maybe . The ad in the newspaper said you wanted the resume , a cover letter , and two letters of recommendation . I included those things in the envelope . Is there anything else I should send ?
No , that is all we need . If we have those things included , that is sufficient .
Do you know when they will start setting up interviews for the job ?
I'm not really sure about that . But I know we are still receiving resumes . Maybe after a week or two they will start calling applicants .
I see . Well , thank you very much for helping me . You have been very helpful .
If you have any further questions , you can call any time .
Thank you .
Paul , what kind of music do you like to listen to ?
All kinds , but mostly Pop , rock and classical . Why ?
I have tickets to a show . Do you want to go with me ?
What kind of music is it ?
Pop . It's Maria Carey .
When is it ?
At 8P M tomorrow night .
Yeah , I'd like to go . Do you think we should have dinner first ?
Yes , that's a good idea .
Let's eat at the restaurant across the street from my apartment .
Oh , I think I know the place you mean . We ate there last month , right ?
Hey ! Taxi .
Where are you heading , sir ?
Capital Airport .
What's your flight time ?
At 7:50 .
I guess we should get there no later than 7:00 .
How long is the ride from here then ?
Well , since it's rush hour , I'd say the ride would take about thirty minutes , more or less . Is that okay ?
Is that girl your girlfriend ?
No , it's not .
She doesn't look like our classmate .
Don't mistake her as somebody . She ' s my older sister .
May I help you ?
Yes , I'd like to buy these razors .
They are a nice middle-aged couple , just like us .
If they are just like us , they are not middle-aged .
Of course they are .
Middle-aged means in the middle , Ethel , middle of life . People don't live to a hundred and fifty .
Oh , we are the part on the edge of middle . That's all .
Oh , you know , we are not middle-aged . You're old , and I'm aging .
Oh , fool ! You're nearly seventy and I'm in the low sixties . Would you like to spend the rest of the afternoon squabbling about this ?
And so , that concludes my outline for our marketing strategy next year . Thank you very much for your time .
Hey , that was quite the presentation ! Honestly , I was completely blown away by your strategy outline . I've gotta say , Alex , you really wowed me today .
Aw , come on , it was nothing . I'm just doing my job .
No , I think you deserve some recognition here ; I mean , if I look back on your previous presentations , this is a huge improvement .
Well , Kristin did give me a hand with the slides . She ' s a real wiz on PowerPoint .
And I saw that you took on board my feedback about pricing strategies . I really appreciate you taking the time to think though my suggestions .
Yeah , well , that was some good advice . You made some really good points .
hey , Mary , what's up ?
not much . Last night I met this great guy at the bar and we had such a wonderful time that we decided to meet again tonight .
oh , that's exciting . What's this guy like ? Is he hot ?
well , I didn't think so at first . But as we started talking , I found his extremely funny and witty . I couldn't stop laughing at his jokes ! We have so much in common . We like the same teams , music , a
it seems you two are a good match . What qualities do you look for in a friend ?
there's nothing definite I think . I don't have a list or anything , but when I first meet somebody , I can usually tell whether or not that person is going to be a good friend . It seems I have radar h
well , that's something I've never heard of . But if you as me what I value most in a friend , I would have to say honesty .
I agree . You can't expect a close relationship with a dishonest person . Those are the people that will turn their back on you when you are in need .
Hello , I need to come in and see the doctor .
Are you scheduling a check-up , or are you ill ?
I have really itchy skin and think I may have to have it looked at .
Have you been feeling any joint aches with that rash ?
No , but I have a low fever .
I have times available for Tuesday or Wednesday . Which one would work best for you ?
I want to come in on Wednesday .
I can fit you in on that day at 10
I would prefer Dr . Smith .
I opened my mail , found this eviction notice , and don ' t know what to do with it .
Actually , it is a 30 - day notice to vacate the premises .
Just for being a few days late ?
This isn ' t the first time you have been considerably late with the rent . I need to start the procedure to evict you .
Are you taking my apartment away ?
This is a notice to inform you that the sheriff will evict you in 30 days if you do not pay up on your rent .
Can I keep the apartment if I pay my rent in full ?
You can keep the apartment if you stay caught up on your rent . Otherwise , I need to find someone who can make the payments .
I will go write a check right now .
Can you believe that Obama was actually elected ?
I can believe it , and I am very excited about it .
I hope you voted for him .
Of course I did . Didn ' t you ?
Of course !
I have total faith in Obama as our President .
You do ?
Yeah . I have faith that he will help America turn over a new leaf .
Our country really could use some work .
I believe that change has already begun .
I couldn ' t agree more .
So it is hard to be a black student on campus ?
Yes , in many ways it is . There are many stereotypes I have to deal with in my daily life .
Stereotypes ? Like what ?
Well , like since I'm black , I must like rap music , come from the inner city , or play basketball well .
I do know you like rap music , but the other two are definitely false . I ' Ve seen you play basketball .
Hey ! But that's not the only problem . There's also the affirmative action stigma .
You mean that people look down upon you because they think you're in school because of a quota ? That's not true at all , you're really a smart guy .
I know that , but some people don't think like that . And I get problems from teachers as well .
Teachers ? I didn't think that they would be racist at all .
Racist ? Not exactly . It's how they look at me and ask for my opinion on a topic , as if I can speak for all black people and give them the black opinion on a subject . Suddenly I become the representative of the black race , as if we all had the same opinion .
Hello . Is Vanessa there ?
Yes . This is Vanessa .
Hi , Vanessa . I ' m Don . I ' m calling from Seller ' s Market . Are you still interested in a position as a cashier ?
Yes . Is the position available now ?
Yes , it is . Please come to see me tomorrow afternoon at 2 00 for a job interview .
Thanks a lot .
You ' re welcome . I ' ll see you tomorrow at 2 00 .
I think I may rent out this apartment that I found .
Oh , really ? Where ' d you find it ?
I was looking through the ads today , and I found it in there .
In the ads ? Are you serious ?
Yeah , and it ' s affordable too .
I ' d like to hear about this apartment .
First of all , it ' s absolutely gorgeous .
What is the rent each month ?
It ' s only $ 725 a month .
That ' s amazing . The rent is very cheap .
I know it is .
Good evening , welcome to Rainbow Restaurant . May I take your coat , please ?
Yes , thank you so much .
Have you booked already ?
Yes , my table is for 7 and it's near the window .
Are you ready to go the concert ?
Yes . Should we go there by bus so we aren't late ?
Actually , why don't we go there by bike ? We could get stuck in traffic if we travel by bus in rush hour .
That's true . Cycling is good for our environment , too . Let me just get my helmet then .
Is your helmet comfortable ?
Not really , but I liked the design , so I got it .
Maybe you should think about getting a round helmet ; they're better .
I'll think about it .
Is that your new bicycle ?
Yes , my father gave it to me for my birthday . Do you like it ?
It's the newest 10 speed cycling mountain bike . These are really expensive !
Nothing but the best from my dad . I like everything about it except for the brakes . They are a bit sticky .
I can fix those for you . Is there anything else wrong with it ?
Well , my saddle is too low for me . Do you know how to change the height ?
That's easy . It's important to have the saddle high enough so that your legs can extend fully when you are on your bicycle .
Is that why my knees have felt sore after every time I've ridden my bike ?
I would like to get my driver's license today .
You will have to take your driving test . Have you taken it yet ?
I haven't taken it yet .
Could you fill these papers out , please ?
Can I take my test right now ?
You need an appointment .
I would like to do that right now , if I could .
Is Friday good for you ?
That's perfect .
Okay , so Friday at what time ?
The morning would be nice .
I saw an interesting program on TV last night . It was about elderly people .
And what did the program say ?
It said that people with a positive attitude 7 tend to live longer and happier .
I think that many physicians 8 now agree with that idea .
And the TV program also said that physical exercise helps people deal with stress .
Can you help me do an internet search ?
Sure . What do you want to find ?
I want to find information on World War Two .
Well , can you be more specific ? There are a lot of websites about that .
Yes , I want to know about the Normandy Landing .
Ok . Well , go to www . google . com , and type in Normandy Landing .
Oh , wow ! There are lot of sites .
Here , try this one . It's a good site about Normandy Landing .
Thanks .
For detailed information , however , you should read a history book .
My amenities bill says that I owe $ 10 for a movie , but I never ordered one .
Let's see . It says that you were charged Monday at 9:00 p . m . for the movie ' Titanic . '
That's absolutely wrong ! I was out exploring the city Monday night .
Okay , let me see what I can do for you .
Thank you . I didn't think it would be this simple .
I can take the $ 10 off your bill , but I need to charge you $ 2 for the service .
Are you serious ? I have to pay $ 2 for a movie I never watched ?
Unfortunately , sir , it's how the computer is programmed .
This is outrageous ! I'm never coming back to this hotel again !
Have you got anything to declare , madam ?
No , I haven't .
Have you got any wine or spirits ?
No , I don't drink .
What about cigarettes or cigars ?
I've got some cigars .
How many , madam ?
Sir , how can I help you ?
I'd like a one-inch photo for my interview .
OK , please take a seat . Look at here . Head up . Done .
Good afternoon , sir .
Good afternoon . I have a reservation under the name of Hilton .
Could you spell that , please ?
Sure . It's H-I-L-T-O-N .
One moment , please . Ah yes , Mr . Hilton , you booked a single room for three nights . Is that correct ?
Yes , that's right .
I see from the computer that you are a frequent guest here . Do you have your loyalty card ?
Yes , here you are . And here's my credit card , too .
Thank you . Right , your room number is 105 . Here's your key and receipt . Thank you for choosing our hotel again , sir .
Thank you , goodbye .
Mr . Li , the report has been finished .
So fast ! Thank you .
You're welcome . This is my duty . Anything else ?
Yes , you'd print out the address and telephone number of those guests from your computer , and then send those materials to each business worker .
OK , I'll do it right now .
By the way , to tell them try to persuade those new guests to cooperate with us . Because I found a biggest opponent from this post-trip .
Yes , I get it .
how are you doing ?
I'm ok . I wish I could say the same for my friend .
what happened to him ?
he was arrested by the police for drinking and driving .
was it his first offence ?
unfortunately not . He was charged with a DUI when he was in university .
what happened to him then ?
not much ; it was a minor offence back then . He got away with a fine of $ 500 .
did they take his license away ?
no , they were really easy on him . The problem is that that was a long time ago . They are much tougher on crime now .
what do you think will happen to him ?
well , he'll definitely lose his license , pay a fine , and maybe even spend some time in jail .
that doesn't sound too promising . Does he have a defence lawyer ?
not yet . If we can't find a lawyer for him , then the state will appoint him with one .
my sister is a lawyer . I can ask her if she can help him .
Daddy , I want to buy a ten-speed-sportsman .
How much is it ? Is three hundred dollars enough ?
No , I'm not asking for money . I'm asking for your advice .
They're very good friends , aren't they ?
I wouldn't say that . They seem to be on good terms but actually they always speak ill of each other .
I ' d like to post this letter to Korea .
Is it urgent ? Would you like the express service ?
Excuse me . When is breakfast time ?
From 6:00 to 9:00 .
Well , I would like to order breakfast for tomorrow coming .
Certainly , Sir . What would you like to have ?
Please give me two fried eggs , two orders of toast and a cup of coffee .
Joy Chain elementary school , please .
Will do .
How frustrating ! The bus is still not coming .
Ma'am , take your kid to school ?
Yes . I am in a hurry . Please take a shortcut .
No problem . Don't worry , the taxi is faster than the bus .
The traffic is terrible on Monday morning . It takes us almost 1 hour to get to school .
My son is the same . But he always makes an early start in the morning , and enjoys listening to the English programmer Let's talk in English on the way .
That's wonderful . He is killing two birds with one stone . Sir , please turn right at the next corner . And stop at the taxi stand .
OK !
What is the fare ?
It's 14 . 5 Yuan .
Keep the change !
Hi Sarah , how are you ?
Fine , how are you doing ?
OK .
What do you want to do ?
I'm hungry . I'd like to eat something .
Where do you want to go ?
I'd like to go to an Italian restaurant .
What kind of Italian food do you like ?
I like spaghetti . Do you like spaghetti ?
Good evening , ma'am . Table for one ?
Yes , please .
Will this table be all right ?
Actually , I'd like a booth by the window if that's possible .
Certainly . How about this one ?
This will be fine , thanks .
( Handing her a menu ) Your waiter will be here in a minute to take your order .
My name's McDonald .
Is that spelt M , A , C or M , C ?
Can I help you ?
Yes , I want to buy a suit .
What about the red one ? It's the best seller .
Yeah , it's quite cute . I don't think it will fit me . I would prefer a darker color . Have you a black one ?
Mom , I just finished my paper . Can you proofread it before I hand it in ?
Sure , let's take a look . Sweetie , this is terrific . Your ideas are so original .
Thanks .
I can tell you worked hard on it .
I really did ! I started thinking about what I wanted to say three weeks ago .
Well , it was definitely worth all the time .
Hi Joe . You met my new assistant , right ?
Emm ... yes . But I wasn't too impressed . I found her a little stuck up .
You are kidding , but she's so helpful .
Tom ... you are her boss , you kown . Of course , she's helpful to you .
Come on . She's like that with everyone .
You seem to be unhappy . What happened ?
My mother is ill in the hospital .
What does the doctor say ?
It's getting late .
Room Reservations . May I help you ?
I'd like to cancel a reservation .
In whose name was the reservation made ?
Jim White .
What was the date of the reservation ?
From November 21st for 4 nights .
Excuse me , but is the reservation for yourself or for another party ?
It's for myself .
May I have your name and phone number , please ?
Yes , it's Zheg In and my number is 3811658 .
Oh , my ! It's really hot . I've never seen such scorching weather in my life .
Tell me about it ! It's like the whole world is broiling .
Oh , look at the thermometer ! The temperature has hit 98 .
I hope it's not gonna break into three digits
But it's already awfully close .
Well , I just hope it'll level off .
I guess you can ' t do anything until after dark then .
How was your first date , David ? Are you satisfied with Jane ?
It was all right . She , tall and attractive , has stable job and source of income .
Yes , so I think she is suitable for you .
But , well ... what I want to say is ...
Stop acting like this . Say away !
Her standard for selecting life partner is a little higher . I can not accept that .
What did she say ?
She said she want a man with large house , luxurious car and healthy parents .
What's Ron Marston like , Pauline ?
He's awful ! He telephoned me four times yesterday , and three times the day before yesterday . He telephoned the office yesterday morning and yesterday afternoon . My boss answered the telephone .
What did your boss say to him ?
He said , Pauline is typing letters . She can't speak to you now ! " Then I arrived home at six o'clock yesterday evening . He telephoned again . But I didn ' t answer the phone !
Did he telephone again last night ?
Yes , he did . He telephoned at nine o'clock .
What did you say to him ?
I said , This is Pauline's mother . Please don ' t telephone my daughter again !
Did he telephone again ?
Hello , Beijing Hotel .
Hello ! Do you have any rooms available tomorrow night ?
Sure . How many rooms do you need ?
Just one .
What kind of room ?
I need a room with two double beds .
Smoking or non-smoking ?
Non .
How many nights will you be staying ?
Six nights .
So Chris , I've heard that you're from a big family . How many people ?
Nine total . Seven children and my parents .
Seven children ? That's a lot . Why did your parents have so many ?
Well , my mother came from a big family , and wanted to have one of her own . My father was an only child , and didn't really care about having a large family , but my mother talked him into it .
Jeez , seven children . That must have a lot of problems . We have four children in my family and my grandparents can never get our names right .
It can be hard , and there are certain sacrifices you have to make .
Like what ? I assume that there's no privacy .
That's one . Another is the lack of personal property . Everything you have , from toys to clothes , is used by your brothers and sisters . Especially clothes . Three quarters of my wardrobe are hand-me-downs .
And the age gap is also annoying . There's a ten-year difference between my younger brother and me . We have nothing in common .
Same problem here . There's an 18 - year gap between the oldest and youngest child in my family . The last child was born just as the oldest was going to college .
Well , at least going to college won't be too bad . Since both of your parents are college professors , they must give you reduced tuition at the college .
Wow ! Look at all these books ! I bet I can find a book about anything here !
Shih ! ! Please keep your voice down . There are people reading and studying here .
Ok , I'm sorry . Are you the librarian ? Maybe you can help me , I am looking for a book .
Yes I am . You can check our online catalog to search the book you want based on the genre , title or if you know the author , I can point you towards the right direction .
I am looking for a book that has nursery rhymes .
That would be in our children's section . That book shelf there on the right .
Ok , I would like to check out these books .
Do you have a library card ?
No . How do I get one ?
I just need to see your drivers license or utility bill to prove that you a resident of this state .
Here you go .
So you are all set . You can have these books for two weeks . If you need to have them longer , you can bring them here to renew them . If you don't , you get charged ten cents a day for each book .
Onxiu Travel Agency , may I help you ?
Yes . I'd like to make a plane reservation to Shanghai , China .
Your name , please ?
Via Kiang . I'd like to leave on May 5th .
Let me see what's available . Yes , Air China has a flight on May 5th at nine fifteen in the morning .
Well , I need an economy ticket .
Single ticket or return ticket ?
Single . What's the fare , PLS ?
Economy fare for single ticket from Beijing to Shanghai is 500 yuan .
I see . Is my ticket confirmed then ?
Yes , your seat is confirmed on that flight . Pls arrive at the airport one hour before departure .
Would you mind taking your feet off the table , Mike ?
Not at all . But I've found satisfaction in it !
Do you put your feet on your own table ?
No , I never do that .
Why not ?
I don't want to mark my table , of course .
Well , will you please put them down ?
I'm sorry . I thought you wouldn't come back so early .
I forgot something on the table .
Look at the cloud .
It's going to rain .
Tell me , what do you enjoy doing in your spare time ?
I enjoy drawing and painting .
You know how to draw and paint ?
Yes , I do .
When did you learn how to do that ?
I learned back in high school .
Oh , so you took an art class ?
Yeah , I loved that art class .
I see that you're pretty talented .
Thank you very much .
I wish I had a talent like that .
Thanks for the advice , Mr . Macmillan . I'll keep it in mind . I had better head off though . I ' m meeting my husband for dinner .
Sure , I'm heading out myself . Enjoy your evening .
Thanks , sir . You too . Drive safely , I hear there ' s a lot ice on the roads .
Have you ever been in an earthquake ?
Yes , I experienced one when I was in Tokyo once . The tremors only lasted a few seconds though and then it was over .
Do you know where it measured on the Richter scale ?
I don't remember , but it wasn't very serious . Have you ever been in an earthquake ?
No , but I was in quite a few tornados when I was younger .
Where are you from ?
I'm from the plains of the Midwest . It's a prime location for tornadoes .
Did your house ever get damaged from the winds ?
Most of the time we were lucky , but once a tree from our front yard was ripped out by its roots and ended up in our living room .
Wow , that must have really been scary .
Actually , some of my fon best memories of my childhood were of spending time with my family in the basement waiting for the tornados to pass .
Have you ever experiences a flood ?
No , but my father's car was destroyed in a flood once . It actually happened the day after he bought the car !
May I help you ?
Yes , please . Can I exchange money here ?
Here we can exchange HAD , USD and Euros . Which do you require ?
To be honest , I really wanted to exchange my GAP , but I suppose USD will be fine . I have some and I just need a little local currency for expenses . Could you tell me what the rate is like today ?
At the moment it's 830 . 43 RIB for 100 USD , which is a pretty good rate .
I need help finding a gift for my daughter .
Would she like a laptop ?
That sounds like a good idea .
A Mac is a very popular brand .
She mentioned a Mac . How much is it ?
A 15 - inch Pro model is $ 2,100 plus tax .
That sounds like a great price . I'll take one .
This is a gift she'll cherish for years . How do you want to pay ?
I'll use my VISA .
We're almost through . Just sign here , please .
Just take it home and plug it in ?
She'll be online 20 minutes after she opens the box .
She's going to be so pleased with this .
Somebody , please answer the phone .
Good morning , madam . I think I'm lost here . The place I want to go to is a hotel called the Hilton .
Do you know in which area ?
No , I am sorry I have no idea . I am a stranger here .
I see . Well , do you know anything near the hotel ?
Oh , yes . My friend told me the hotel was near the Central Railway Station .
Then you'll have to take a bus and get off at the Central Railway Station .
Can you show me where the Central Railway Station is on this map ?
How was Elvin ?
Hey , look . My admirer has struck again .
Another note ? But how ? I didn't see anyone !
It's an e-mail . It says , We need to meet . I'll give you a sweet treat . It's not what you think .
Uh-oh . He's heating up . What are you going to do now ?
You know what , I think I know who my admirer is .
Hi , Lucy , you are very popular with people around you , what are your tricks ?
Thank you for saying so . I don ' t know , probably because I like sharing my experience and knowledge with them . I think this kind of communication helps to improve our work efficiency and also helps to get along with colleagues .
Sharing knowledge can be very settled and some second stances . People may think you are telling them how to do their work . If they take it personally , they feel angry at you and even become reluctant to support you at work .
That is true . Some people will misunderstand your intention and lets you do it in the long threatening way . For example , it is not sensible at all to arguing with the others or correcting someone in front of other people . To show your friendliness and willingness to share is much more important than to show off .
You are quite right . Thank you for sharing your experience with me . I learned a lot .
Waiter , can I have the bill please ?
Wait a moment . It's $ 30 .
We'd prefer separate checks .
Thanks for inviting me over for dinner this evening .
You're welcome .
It looks delicious .
How was Mei ' s party on Saturday ?
Oh I didn ' t go . I stayed at home with my family .
Oh really ? What did you do ?
We watched lots of television and films .
I see . Anything else ?
Yes , we ate a delicious meal and drank some very good wine .
Hi , Dave . You're early .
So you knew it was me ?
I had an idea .
Look , before we get into the secret admirer thing , I want to talk to you about WebTracker .
I'm sorry . I know you feel betrayed .
So you're really planning to quit invoking and switch over to WebTracker ?
Are you feeling better today , Bill ?
Well , it ' s hard to say . I coughed a lot in the evening .
You ' d better give up smoking . It ' s bad for your health .
You ' re right . But you know it ' s so hard to give up the old habit like smoking .
But you should make up your mind first .
You know I often have to work far into the night . I need smoking to keep me awake .
Why don ' t you go to bed early and get up early ? You ' ll have the same time for work .
I cooked , so ...
Have the owners answered back with a counter-offer for my offer to purchase the house ?
In response to your offer , the sellers have decided to counter-offer three hundred and thirty-five thousand dollars .
That sounds pretty good to me , but I am not sure what to do .
You can accept this offer or decline it and come up with another offer .
If I make another offer and they refuse , then what ?
Personally , I would consider making one more offer , but it is up to you to decide what to do .
Let ' s try going with three hundred and thirty thousand dollars for a counter-offer .
I will contact the sellers with your current offer .
Do you think that this will move along fairly quickly ?
I hear you bought a new house in the northern suburbs .
That ' s right , we bought it the same day we came on the market .
What kind of house is it ?
It ' s a wonderful Spanish style .
Oh , I love the roof tiles on Spanish style houses .
And it ' s a bargaining . A house like this in river side costs double the price .
Great , is it a two bedroom house ?
No , it has three bedrooms and three beds , and has a living room with a twelve-foot ceiling . There ' s a two-car garage .
That ' s a nice area too . It ' ll be a good investment for you .
Yeas , when will you buy a house ?
Not untill the end of this year , you know , just before my wedding .
Right , congratulations .
Matthew ? Hi !
Steve ! Haven't seen you in ages ! How long's it been ?
it's got to be almost a year now .
how have you been ?
I'm pretty good . I've been looking for a place to live recently . My lease runs out next month and I don't want to renew it .
yeah , I remember the neighborhood . Have you found a place yet ?
not yet . I am still looking through the classifieds . Wish me luck .
well , maybe I can help . Remember my neighbor ?
Mrs . Thou ?
yes , her daughter's having a baby , so she's moving in with her to help out . I think if you are interested , you can come over and have a look .
great . It's a lovely neighborhood . And it would be nice to be neighbors again . It would be just like the old days !
May I ask you how much this position pays per year ?
This job pays sixty-five thousand dollars per year .
What kind of benefits does this job have ?
This job provides full medical , dental , and disability .
What type of vacation time do we get ?
You get 3 weeks paid vacation that you may use as you wish .
Do we have a 401K ?
We offer a 401K with some matching funds available depending on length of service .
What type of professional development do you offer ?
We provide up-to-date training on state of the art equipment .
Where do I sign up for my benefits package ?
Mike , did you win the lottery or something ? Why the big smile ?
I'm so relieved . I just passed the bar exam .
You did ? That's great ! You must be very happy now ?
That's an understatement . I'm on cloud nine . I couldn't be any happier .
Did you tell your parents yet ?
Not yet . I didn't get a hold of them . I'll try to call them again tonight .
They're probably going to be so happy .
Dad , you've been driving for three hours . Why don't we have a switch ?
There're a lot of chuckholes on this old highway . Driving on it is experience-demanding .
Trust me . I've been driving for two years .
I ' m ready to settle the bill .
I hope you enjoyed your stay .
Definitely ! Very relaxing .
Good . Right , that comes to $ 1,500 .
What ? I only stayed three nights .
That ' s right , sir . Three nights at 500 dollars a night ... that comes to $ 1,500 .
But your brochure said that this was a package deal and the hotel ' s services were all-inclusive .
Yes , of course . The meals and excursions were included in the hotel price .
But why are you overcharging me almost a thousand dollars ? 250 dollars a night , times three nights should just be $ 750 .
I ' m sorry sir . The 250 - dollar rate is based on double occupancy . That means it ' s 250 per person . The room itself is 500 dollars a night .
Perhaps I could talk to your manager ?
Ah ! It hurts . Don't touch it .
What part hurts ?
The shoulder .
Well , maybe you broke it . But what I'm worried about is this cut .
It's not a cut . It's a gash ! It's bigger than a cut ! Ah ! I need a doctor .
C'mon . Just don't move .
I'm bleeding too much .
We don't have a decent First Aid Kit , do we ?
Yes . My bike has one under the seat . Get it , quick !
There's some tape , iodine , and cloth bandages . I don't think the cloth bandages can stop the bleeding . What we need is a tourniquet .
Wrap a few loops of the bandages around my upper arm , then twist . That will work as a tourniquet . After that , you can cut more of the bandages to cover the wound .
Good plan . Let me put some iodine on the cut .
No , forget that ! Do the tourniquet first . I'm losing too much blood .
Alright , alright . How did you cut this so bad ?
I ran it against that fence pole as I crashed . What do you think ? Damn , it hurts !
We'll have to get you to a hospital . I can ride you on the back of my bike .
I'm lucky I wasn't killed . I must have been going around forty-five miles an hour . There was too much gravel on that corner . I slid out .
Yes , I almost slid too . Alright . This tourniquet is tight . How does it feel ?
Make it tighter . I want the blood stopped . Then wrap some bandages around the cut . Then we can go . Ouch ! I hope I can walk .
Alright , I'm twisting it around . You tell me when to stop .
Amanda , how do you like this peaked cap ?
Didn't you say you want to buy a top hat ?
But I think this one fits me Well . Why don't you try on the sombrero in black ?
Hi . What's up ?
Nothing much . What's new with you ?
Not too much . I've been pretty busy .
Me too . Seems like all I do is eat and sleep .
Gotta go . Call me tonight .
I don't think we come here at a right time .
What's wrong ?
The museum doesn't open today .
What a pity !
Where shall we go now ?
What will happen to the children if you break up ?
That's a relief for me and a misery for the children .
Why don't you make up with John .
Labor is an abundant resource here .
Excuse me , what time do you expect to land in Berlin ?
We should be there by 5 this afternoon .
Do you have any idea how long it will take to clean customs ?
Too much , Harry . Don't blame her anymore .
But it was her that makes us so embarrassed .
I know . But there's no point in making her feel worse , isn't there ?
Plastic bags are widely used nowadays .
But they're hard to be disposed of .
Good morning , may I help you ?
Hello , I want to remit one thousand Yuan to Magnolia Company .
Please fill out this form , please .
OK ... Do I put on Magnolia Company for the receiver ?
Yes . You must put on its name and full address .
OK , I see . Here you are . Is that OK now ?
Let me check . Yes . Your one thousand remittance , please .
Here you are . What is the rate ?
This rate is one percent . That will be 10 Yuan .
OK , when will this remittance arrive ?
Generally it will arrive within a week .
That's good . Is there anything else ?
No . That's all . You have to take good care of this copy of this transfer order .
Anna , Would you like to dance ?
I ' d love to , but I ' m a terrible dancer . I ' m afraid I may step on your toes .
Don ' t worry about it . I ' ll show you how . It ' s a piece of cake .
Do I need a visa ?
No , I shouldn't think so . But you must take your passport of course .
Yes , I know . I must get my traveler's check and some foreign currency .
Yes , you need the traveler's check but you needn't get any foreign currency . You can have my US Dollars , I don't need them .
Really ? That's very good of you , Helen . But I must get a new suitcase , my old one needs repairing .
You needn't buy one . You can have mine .
That's very kind of you , Helen . I hope you don't mind my leaving you like this . I need a holiday . It won ' t be long .
What do you plan to do on Sunday morning ?
Nothing special .
How about going to English corner with me ?
Oh , I'd rather not .
Why not ?
You know , I am poor at English , especially spoken English .
I'd like to make an appointment with manager Mr . Wu . Would 10:00 a . m . tomorrow be all right ?
I'm afraid not . He has a meeting tomorrow morning .
Could I possibly make it early in the afternoon ?
No , that's not good either . But give me your phone number and I'll call you if somebody cancels .
Can I help you ?
Yes . Do you have football stockings here ?
Yes . There are two colors .
OK , I'll buy two pairs of each color . And do you have sports socks ?
Yes .
OK , give me two pairs in white .
Anything else ?
What a nice dress , Jean . You look marvelous !
You , too . Where did you get your new hat ?
From the Crown's . Oh , what lovely earrings you have ! Are they diamond ?
Yes . It's a birthday present from my husband !
Well , you are lucky to have such a considerate husband . Mine hasn't brought me a single rose since we married .
He'll come out with surprises . Just wait and see . Look at that woman , with the white chiffon !
She's chic , isn't she ?
Yes . I like the dress . It must be the latest fashion . Look , the hem has lowered , and the waist narrowed .
It makes me feel rather shabby . That woman has a good taste in dressing , I would say .
Yes . She dressed with an individual flair . I rather envy her .
Most women follow fashion like sheep . They don't know any better than imitate .
I quite agree with you . See the woman there ? I dare say she hasn't got any eyes . How could she match the mauve gown with the green handbag ? And all that jewelry !
The gown is quite expensive , believe me .
So what ? It only makes her look cheap and vulgar .
You know those upstarts . They're all show-offs ! I think I'd better have a diet ; otherwise I'd look like a ballon soon .
You're quite slim . In fact , if you were one of those starlets , the movie company would say you have a fabulous figure .
Thanks . I'm flattered .
He said he will get married by the end of this month .
Big talk , I ' d say . He does not have a girlfriend yet .
Hello , you seem a little lost . Can I help you ?
I've got a Remittance Advice and I'd like to cash it .
I can do that for you . Could I see the Remittance slip ?
Here you are . I'm here on business and this is from my boss , it's for my expenses so I need cash .
That's no problem . The amount is 2,000 RIB , is that correct ?
Yes , that's right .
I just need to see some identification before I hand over the cash .
Good to see you . Come on in .
Thank you . Here's a present for you .
Were you born in the U . S . , Melissa ?
No , I wasn't . I came here in 1992 .
How old were you ?
I was seventeen .
So , did you go to college right away ?
No , because my English wasn't very good . I studied English for two years first .
Wow , your English is really fluent now .
Thanks . Your English is pretty good , too .
I need a taxi .
We could easily provide you with a private vehicle , if you'd prefer .
No , the taxi will do .
Perhaps you'd like to take a beautiful limousine .
No , thank you . Taxis and I get along just fine .
No private vehicle , no limo . Got it . Where are you going ?
I'm seeing a show at Rockefeller Center .
What time should the taxi be here to pick you up ?
I'm ready to go right now .
I'll have a taxi for you momentarily , sir .
Great ! As soon as I brush my teeth , I'll be downstairs .
Good evening . Room Service . May I help you ?
Yes . Please send one " Fried Rice , Hangzhou Style " and one " Fruit Salad " to my room .
Anything to drink , sir ?
Yes , two bottles of beer .
Is there any particular brand you like , sir ?
Carlsborg .
Yes , sir . Is there anything else you want , sir ?
No , thanks .
May I know how many of you so that I could prepare the right set of tableware ?
Yes , two of us .
Excuse me . May I know your name and room number ?
Yes , Bill Smith in Room 713 .
I would like to check out now . My room number is 712 .
Let me see , Mr . Lee . right ? How would like to pay your bill ?
Do you accept traveler's checks ?
Yes .
Do you need any help ?
I need some help catching up . Are you good at typing or could you help me xerox ?
I like xeroxing .
Thank you ! There are papers on the table to start with .
OK , I will get right to that .
I really appreciate the help . How many years have you been with the company ?
I just started working here .
I have a special assignment coming up . Would you be interested in helping me on it ?
I'd like to , but I am very busy .
Who is responsible for the accident ? Is it Tony ' s fault ?
No . I don ' t suppose he ' s to blame . The man in the other car made a big mistake .
You mean Tony is the victim ? No , I don ' t think so . He ' s equally responsible because he tried to overtake you .
Well , if it isn't the teacher's pet !
Stop it . Teacher doesn't treat me any different than she does everyone else .
You can't prove that by me . I saw the score on your report .
Hey , I worked hard on that report and I deserve the grade I got .
It just happened to be the highest grade in the class .
You're just jealous because you didn't do as well as you thought you did . Admit it .
I worked hard too . But she always gives me a lower grade .
I have a feeling you will get this job .
Thanks . But I'm not so sure . Interviews stress me out .
Just remember to be professional and polite . Oh , and don ' t forget to smile .
I ' ll do my best , but sometimes I have trouble being myself in stressful situations .
Have you updated your resume recently ?
Yes ... ah ! I forgot to include my e-mail address .
You ' d better double-and-triple check it . You don ' t want to have any embarrassing typos on your resume . Otherwise , you might shoot yourself in the foot .
I ' ll be sure and do that . I also need to pick out the right suit , shirt , and tie for this interview .
Definitely . Oh , do you have a reference letter ?
Sort of . I prepared a list of all the people who can vouch for my experience and good work ethic .
I ' m included on your list of references , right ? My praise of you could really make a difference .
May I sit here ?
I'm afraid this seat is taken .
Oh , is it ? Thank you anyway .
You're welcome . If you ask the conductor when he comes by , he should help you find one .
Mr . Wang , have you enjoyed your stay here ?
Of course , I ' Ve enjoyed it very much . I ' Ve met my old friends and made some new friends .
We ' Ve all enjoyed being with you . When will you come back ?
Sometime next year .
I ' m looking forward to seeing you again . Take care .
Well , Mr . Brooks . I ' m sorry , again , for the delay , but we should have everything completed by the time you get back .
I certainly hope so . Can we arrange to meet on the 27th ? That should give you enough time .
Yes , sir . That ' s more than enough time . I do appreciate your understanding . Why don ' t we say 10:00 o ' clock on the 27th ?
I need help with my timesheet .
OK , no problem . Have you found the blank ones ?
Yes , I have seen them .
Yes , well put your name on it after you have downloaded it off the company website . OK ?
Yes , I understand what to do .
You fill in the hours and total them for the week . Have you ever used a 24 hour clock ?
What ? Huh ?
So after you noted the hours , starting at zero which is midnight , you just write down the minutes as a dot followed by minutes . Get it ?
Huh ? What ?
Just make sure you show your total , sign it , and turn it in .
I thought you said this was easy .
Welcome to Jinyuan Shoe Town . What can I do for you ?
I'm looking for a pair of white sports shoes to go with my jeans .
White ? What make do you want ? Arid what size ?
Adidas . Size 38 .
Adidas ? They wear well . Try this pair , Size 38 , please .
Yes . ( After trying ) A bit tight actually , they pinch my toes . Have you got a larger pair . Size 39 ?
Okay . What about this one ?
( After trying ) Mm , this pair fits me well . I'll take it . How much is it ?
You are so lucky . They are on sale today . It costs only 250 yuan . Pay at the counter over there .
It's nice and bright today , isn't it ?
Yes , the autumn is marvelous here .
Tomorrow will be fine too , I think .
White Rose Restaurant . Good afternoon ! Can I help you ?
Yes , I would like to book a table for six for the next Monday .
Certainly , sir . At what time should we expect you ?
At 6:30 on next Monday evening .
And what is it going to be , Chinese food or Western food ?
Chinese food .
May I have your name , sir , please ?
Please book it under the name of Mr . Peter .
So it's Mr . Peter , a table for six for the evening of the next Monday . It is Chinese food and you are coming at 6:30 .
That's right .
Hang out the clothes .
Yes , I think there is something wrong with my car .
What's the matter ?
When I tried to back it , I found it was out of order . I can't see where the trouble is .
Let me see .
Is it serious ?
No , the damage is minor .
And when will it be OK ?
4:00 p . m ..
Is there anything wrong ?
I ' m worried about my daughter . She can ' t decide about college .
Don ' t worry . That ' s just a part of being a teenager .
I don ' t mind that . But she disagrees with me about everything .
You should encourage her to make up her mind by herself . You shouldn ' t affect her decision .
But I just want to give her some tips .
DM210 is equivalent to 400 RIB .
Don't you wish to employ RIB of ours ? US Dollars might be adopted .
Are you afraid of losing money due to exchange rate fluctuations ?
Did you know that drinking beer helps you sing better ?
Are you sure ? How do you know ?
Well , usually people think I'm a terrible singer , but after we all have a few beers , they say I sound a lot better !
Maria sings like a lark , doesn't she ?
Yes , she's almost equal to Celine Dion when she sings .
Maybe she'll make a famous singer in the future .
What shall we do tonight ?
How about the cinema ?
That's a good idea . We haven't been there for ages .
What would you suggest to see ?
You look pale , you must have poor health .
Yeah . You said it .
Why not go to see the doctor ?
I guess I'm just a little nervous . I'm giving everything I have to invoking , and ...
and what if it doesn't work out , right ?
Exactly .
You need to quit thinking like a loser . invoking is going to kick butt . You know how I know ?
How ?
Because I won't let it fail .
Would you like this one ?
I don't think that will do . How about the one at your back ?
This one ?
No , the other one ... yes .
This one is especially built for hard , continuous play . And every detail of workmanship and material has been carefully checked to make it a dependable one for tournament use .
It do look beautiful . Well . I think I'll take it . Now do you have any racket covers ?
This cover comes with the racket .
How much does it come up to ?
The mark says six hundred yuan , plus tax , it's six hundred and eighty yuan .
Do you accept credit cards ?
Good afternoon . I suppose you are Ms . Monica . My name is Mr . Thomas , the general manager of ABC Company . Here is my business card .
Thank you very much .
I am very impressed by your resume . Therefore , I am very interested to know why you ' re willing to leave your current company .
I am looking for a more challenging position . I can ' t grow anymore in my current job .
Ok , I understand . But why you choose us to work for ?
I have studied carefully the information about your company on the internet and I have checked your company ' s homepage . I am impressed by the company . And I like the products a lot . Since you ' re growing steadily , I would be very eager to help you to improve your accounting system .
How do you work with a team ?
I work quite well with a team . I ' m a good team player . I respect people , cooperate well with member ' s team . And I will do my best to help team members .
What ' s your long term goal ?
Oh , my god . I am so heavy now . I gain 10 kilos .
I am going to the gym . Do you want to come with me ?
I think I should go . I really need to lose some weight .
Then , I'll wait for you at the car park in 20 minutes .
0K . See you then .
Do you have your member card with you ?
Nope , I do not have a membership yet .
Well I have a guest ticket . You can use it .
What is your temperature now ?
My temperature is 39 degrees centigrade .
How high was your temperature yesterday ?
I didn't take my temperature but I felt feverish .
Will you open your mouth ? Your throat is swollen .
Doctor , I can't eat any foods because I had a sore throat .
I want to know how to buy something from this machine .
Yeah , the new ones can be tricky . What are you trying to buy ?
I want to buy one of those snack things .
Are you ready to go ?
I'm clear so far .
The money goes in the slot over there . It has to be smooth to go in .
It won't go in !
Just remember that you might have to feed the money in a couple of times to get it to work .
Yes , next step .
Make your selection and hope for the best . Vending machines aren't all that reliable .
They're totally unreliable .
Hi , what ' re you reading ?
Oh , it ' s Death on the Nile . Have you read it ?
No , not that one . But I saw the movie . Could I borrow it when you finished ?
Sure . I didn ' t know you like mysteries .
do you need a hand ?
no , I can handle it . Thanks anyway .
are you sure you don't need any help ?
well , maybe just a little . I can't seem to make it fit .
I swear , the overhead compartments on these planes just keep getting smaller and smaller !
that's so true . thanks for your help . Are you in the aisle seat in this row ?
yes . What about you ?
I'm in the middle seat .
oh , I guess I'll let you through then .
thanks . sorry for making you get out of your seat again .
that's alright . I notice you have a few newspapers there . Would you mind lending me one ?
no , not at all . Which one would you like--the New York Times or the Guardian ?
I prefer the British paper , but I'll read whatever one you aren't going to read right away .
I was just going to do a little Sudoku while we wait for the plane to take off , so the Guardian is all yours .
thanks a lot . That's really nice of you . Would you like a piece of gum ?
Hey Michelle , jump in quick . It's pouring out there !
Oh , hi Melissa . Are you going to the conference too ? I was planning to pick up Mr . Campbell .
Yes , he told me . We need to pick him up at his hotel and then go to the conference .
Oh I see , okay . So I heard you got married . Congratulations !
Ah thank you ! I'm very excited . We were going to get married next year , but then we decided to get married on holiday instead . It was wonderful .
That sounds so romantic ! Jack and I were hoping to get married in Europe next year , but we had to postpone our plans . We just don't have the money !
I know what you mean . I think Shanghai is getting more and more expensive , don't you ?
I sure do . In my opinion , it's actually becoming more expensive than back home .
Do you see the woman ? Is she a teacher ?
Yes , she is .
Does she teach Chinese ?
No , she is an English teacher .
And who ' s the man in the green beside her ?
Honey , I think I need to go see the doctor .
Ah ! You're bleeding all over ! What happened ?
I was working in the garage and cut myself with my saw .
Here , use this rag to apply pressure to the cut . Does it hurt ?
No , not really , there's just a lot of blood .
You may just need stitches . I think they can handle this at the clinic instead of the ER . Let me make a quick phone call .
I'm going to go sit in the car while I still have the stomach to walk .
Hello , what can I do for you ?
Hello , I come to pay my water and electricity fees .
Give me your water and electricity bills , please .
Here they are .
You should pay 160 yuan for the electricity fee and 80 yuan for the water fee .
Do you mean that I should pay 240 yuan in total ?
Yes . Will you pay by cash or credit card ?
Cash , please . Here is the money .
I get 250 yuan from you , and this is the change , 10 yuan .
OK . Thank you . Bye-bye .
Can I help you ?
I hope so . I'm looking for some material for a paper I'm writing , and I'm not quite sure where to look .
I'll certainly try to help you . What topic is your paper on ?
My paper is on the influence of television on children .
There are several possible sources you might use for that topic . I suggest you use the computer and the computer will give you a list of every scientific journal that talks about children and television .
Waiter , a menu please !
Here you are .
Thank you . Could you tell me the specials today ?
The special today is fried chicken , and beef is good too .
Ok , let's think about it for a minute .
Good morning , sir . Sorry to disturb you . May I make up your room now ?
Yes , please . We ' re on my way out . You can put up make up sign on . Could you bring us some towels and hangers .
What wrong with you ? You look pale ?
I ' m not sure . I feel hot and cold .
When did the trouble start ?
I was sick most of the night .
It sounds like you ' re coming down with the flu . Let me take your temperature .
Have I got high fever ?
Yes . Thirty-eight point seven . Do you have a headache , chestache or throat pain ?
Yes , I have .
Now , Let me have a look at you . I ' d like to listen to your chest . Breathe then , deep breath , that ' s it . Cough , now again . I want to exam your throat too . Open wide , say A .
ah .
Yes , It does look a bit sore . Let ' s take your extra way of your chest and give you a few tests .
All right , thanks .
The tests showed nothing wrong . a slight by infection .
What shall I do today ?
Hello , Steven . Can you do me a favor ?
Sure . What is it ?
My car has broken down .
You should telephone the garage for help .
I have done it . But now I have an urgent appointment to keep . Could you drive me to the subway station ?
With pleasure . Get in .
I had broken up with him , how painful I feel . I ' m going to drown my sorrows .
Are you a soccer fan ?
Yes , I am . I like to watch soccer games on TV , but I don ' t play . I watched every game of the 2002 World Cup .
Which team is your favorite ?
Italian . They played very well , but they were not very lucky .
You bet it is . And we got four thousand for our car space ! Awesome !
Let's play some music ! I feel like dancing .
That's just what was running through my mind . Moonlight and dancing .
Ahh ! Now that's more like it . Atmosphere !
Come on baby , let's dance !
If I remember correctly , time of delivery is another point on wich we differ .
That's right . Let's go into the details .
Ok . I hope you can have these goods delivered before the end of Sep . We'd like them to be there in time for our Christmas sales .
Christmas doesn't come until almost the end of the year , right ?
But in the United States the Christmas season begins about a month before Dec . 25 .
Well . I am afraid it will be difficult for us to advance the time of shipment . Our manufacturers are fully committed at the moment .
I hope you'll try to get them to step up production .
As new orders keep pouring in , the workers are working three shifts to step up production .
If that's the case , there is nothing more to be said .
I am sorry .
What's your last word as to the date then ?
I said by the middle of Oct . This is the best we can promise .
All right . I'll take you at your word .
Good . Let's call it a deal . We will do our best to advance the shipment , but your L / C should be opened early Sep .
So , you finally got your doctorate in genetics . Well done !
Thanks . Now , I have to find a job .
What are you thinking of doing ?
I ' d like to conduct some scientific research into genes . It would be wonderful to make a medical breakthrough .
There must be several private companies that are interested in employing someone like you . You could do some research for a university . There ' s a lot of discussion about genetics nowadays . Someone wit
Many companies and universities investing resources in genetics , because there are so many possibilities . Few people know where next discoveries will be made .
Miss Wang , would you mind my asking you a personal question ?
No , not at all . Go ahead .
Are you married ?
Yes . Is that so important ?
Frankly yes . We like to employ married people . By the way , do you have any children ?
After this lunch , I haven ' t got much green left .
What dances do you like ?
I love to dance the fast music .
Then you must be interested in disco .
Yes , it's my favorite .
Oh , it's a disco . Let's dance .
You're a good dancer .
Thank you . Now they are playing a rumba . Would you have a try ?
Sorry . I feel like sitting out the next dance .
OK . Let's get something to drink .
Look ! It is not working well . Did you try out the bike when you bought it .
No , there ' s no need . We can change it within two days if it ' s not damaged .
But it would save a lot of trouble if you had taken it for a test ride .
Would you please tell me about the Fortune magazine ?
It was chosen as the most popular magazine of the year .
Do you like it personally ?
The road ahead is blocked . There might have been an accident .
Are there many accidents in the city every day ?
Not really , but they are on the rise .
Dental clinic . This is Mr . Adams .
Hi . My name's David Johnson . I'd like to make an appointment .
All right , David . Is this for a checkup or a cleaning ?
A checkup . I think I have a bad cavity . Half the side of my head hurts .
What tooth is giving you pain ?
One of the back ones .
Hi , may I get you anything to drink ?
Yes , please . May I get a glass of lemonade ?
Would you like an appetizer ?
May I get an order of barbeque wings ?
Sure , would you like anything else ?
That'll be fine for now , thank you .
Okay , tell me when you want to order the rest of your food .
Excuse me . I'm ready to order .
What would you like ?
Let me have the baby-back ribs .
Sure , will there be anything else that I can get you ?
Have you ever thought about your ideal home ?
I have , actually ; I ' Ve always wanted to build my dream home myself .
What would it be like ?
Well , it would be spacious and located next to a park , because a nice view is important to me .
How many rooms would it have ?
I ' d want it to have three bedrooms on a second floor with balconies on each , and one main bedroom on the main floor with an attached en suite . I ' d also want a large living room and kitchen connected to each other so that there would be one large open space for people to spend time with each other .
How many bathrooms would your dream home have ?
I ' d have one guest bathroom in the basement , one attached to the main bedroom , and one upstairs , so a total of three .
How would you decorate your house ?
I don ' t like a lot of clutter , so I wouldn ' t have lots of things out . I would have a few vases on the mantel piece and some pictures of my family on the walls , but other than that , most things would be kept in closets .
How many TVs would your dream home have ?
How often are stockholders meetings held ?
Stockholders meetings are held biannually . Usually the meetings are scheduled for spring and fall . In between the meetings , each stockholder receives biannual reports . Financial statements are made once a year .
What percentage of the stockholders actually attend the meetings ? I'm guessing not a large percentage ...
You're right , it's a low percentage . Also , in order to attend meetings , you have to hold a certain amount of shares . It's quite a large number , so most of the stockers are excluded from proceedings .
So , how much say do the stockholders really have ?
I am thinking about resigning from my current job .
Have you thought about it seriously ?
Yes , I have been thinking about it for quite a while . Now I finally make up my mind to leave . I have given my resignation letter to our boss last Friday .
Ok , did you find a new company ?
Yes , I will move on to XYZ Company .
Good for you , but your leaving will be a great loss to us . It is so nice to work with you .
Welcome to our company Mr white . My name is Yan Hua , the secretary of Mr Wang .
Nice to meet you !
Would you like to have a cup of tea or coffee ?
Thank you . I'd like Chinese tea very much !
Glad you like it . By the way , is this your first time to China , Mr . White ?
Yes , as a representative of IBM . I hope to conclude some business with you .
We also hope to expand our business with you .
This is our common desire .
I think you probably know China has adopted a flexible policy in her foreign trade .
Yes , I have read about it , but I would like to know more about it .
Right . Seeing is believing .
It's wonderful to be in the mountains after a hustle bustle week .
Indeed . I love the smell of the grass and trees . They certainly refresh my mind .
Can we stop here for a while ? My backpack is very heavy .
Sure . Did you hear anything ? Look ! An eagle is hovering in the sky .
Let me see . It's not an eagle . I think it's a vulture .
Yes . Will it hurt us ?
I don't think so . Let's walk by the stream . I am sure we can find the waterfall on the map .
OK . I have a good pair of hiking boots . It should not be a big problem .
I also brought a bottle of water and some provisions . If you are hungry , you can let me know .
You are kind . Look there is a big tree over there , it looks like a thousand-year-old tree .
Well , it is a birch tree . It is not as old as you think .
How do you know ?
I don't know why Mark often comes to me and asks me for advice . I smell some rat in it .
He is sly . He is actually angling for compliments . But he may have got the crush on you .
Nonsense ! There's no indication that he's in love with me .
Mike , shall we book two tickets online ?
Fine . Shanghai and Beijing are thousands of miles away . How about bullet train ? Faster and relatively cheap , I think .
Yeah . How many tickets remain ?
Oh , what a shame . Only sleeping cars have tickets . Others are all out of stock . The price of the sleeping car is almost the same as the airplane . You see , the discount plane tickets are no more than 500 yuan . A good deal , isn't it ?
I'm more worried about snipers .
Snipers ?
Sniping is when someone makes a bid at the very last minute to steal something for a bargain price .
So you're afraid someone is going to snipe your Buddha ?
I heard about a software program called turbid . It automatically submits a bid with just a few seconds to go in an auction .
Who is it ?
Supervisor . Open the door .
Wait a sec .
What are you doing here ?
We're watching a football match . What's the matter ?
Your neighbors complained that you were so noisy that they can't sleep .
I'm sorry about this .
Please turn down the TV . And not another shout or I'll have to report you to the school administration .
Hi ! Susan ! I haven ' t seen you for ages !
I ' Ve been really busy . How is everything ?
Oh , fine . Hey , why don ' t we grab a bite to eat and do some catching up ?
First , tell me about your education , please .
All right . I graduated and got the degree of bachelor of economics from Nanjing University 4 years ago . My major is international trade .
Can you name some terms of payment ?
Have you bought War Craft 2 yet ?
Yeah ! I bought it the day it was released .
How do you like it ?
It's a great game . There are a lot of new characters .
Did it cost very much
It cost about thirty . Most games cost about that much .
Mechwarrior is such a good game . The graphics are awesome !
Oh , I know what you mean . I'm addicted to that game .
My roommate always wants to play it . But I told her to buy her own game .
Yeah , my roommate likes to watch me play . He says it's like watching a movie .
I've never seen such good graphics .
Get up , it's time for you to get ready .
Let me just get five more minutes of sleep .
I would , but you need to start getting ready for school .
I understand , but all I want is five more minutes of sleep .
If I let you go back to sleep , I know that you won't get up in five minutes .
Trust me . I'm going to wake up .
You have a lot to get done this morning .
I already know , and I'll take care of all that when I wake up .
I want you to be on time for school today .
I'll make it to school on time . Don't worry .
Okay , I'll let you sleep for a little while longer .
Hello !
Hello ! Could I speak to Sheerly Lim please ?
Sure , just a second . Who's calling ?
This is Sue from work .
What an attractive blouse , You look so pretty in this blue dress !
Really ? Thank you . I bought it in Spring Street yesterday .
It's very nice . It goes well with your skirt .
Thank you . It ' s very nice of you to say so .
Not at all . This dress certainly shows your good taste .
I dislike Susan . She is always above herself .
Don ' t you know that she was the only one who had received the invitation in the office ?
What of it ?
How long can I keep these books ?
A month . Don't forget to return them by the due date .
What if I can't finish them by then ?
Bring them back to the circulation desk and renew them .
Any terrible fines ?
Could I have your name , please ?
Kevin Belknap .
How do you spell your last name ?
B-E-L-K-N-A-P .
Recycling is big business these days , isn't it ?
Yes , it's definitely a growing business .
What do you recycle in your plant ?
Mainly plastics . Plastics aren ' t bio degradable - they don ' t break down easily in the environment - so they shouldn't be thrown away .
How is plastic recycled , then ?
Well , there are basically two methods . One is to break down the chemicals in the plastic into smaller chemical particles . These can then be used in the production of new chemicals .
Is that the method you use here ?
No , we don't do that here . We recycle polyethylene and we make it into other products .
How do you do that ?
Hi Jackie . You don't look too well . What's going on ?
It's nothing . I'm just a little stressed out .
Why ? What's stressing you out ?
School . Since I was working part time , I had a difficult time keeping up with class . Now that we have exams coming up , I'm totally freaking out .
The best thing to do is study as much as you can . I'm sure you'll do alright .
I hope so . I guess I won't be sleeping for the next 3 days . That's what it'll take .
I have to study for an exam too . Why don't we study together . We can encourage each other .
Would you please mail these letters , Lucy ?
Yes , Sir .
These two are urgent letters and should be sent by registered express airmail . Others are ordinary letters .
All right , who should I send them to ?
It ' s sent to Mr . Charles . I believe he is in London .
Ok , home or office address ?
Office address , please . He might be at work when they arrive .
Should I enclose this commercial paper with these two letters ?
Is your application successful ?
Yes , they notify me to work next week .
Where on earth will you work in ?
It is a pretty big mechanical company . I am assigned to work in the assembly shop .
How long will you work a day ?
My working hours aren ' t fixed , sometimes I do the day shift , sometimes the night shift . In all , about 8 hours .
That ' s rather hard .
But it matches my major .
How will you get your pay ?
My wage depends on production results .
What sort of welfare facilities does your company provide ?
The company provides labor insurance for all employees , as well as fine retirement policy .
Is there a union ?
There is the company union , but it really shares the same aims as the management .
So you must consider dearly before you go to work .
Francis , what ' s that ?
Well , that is the chart showing our company ' s organizational structure .
Could you tell me something about it ?
Ok . On the top , Mr . Thomas , the managing director , is responsible for running the company .
How many departments do we have ?
Four . They are production department , finance department , sales and marketing department and HR department . I directly report to Mr . White . He is on a business trip and is suppose to be back this morning . Probably you will be meeting him at lunch .
Ok . Who should I report to ?
does your family have a record of your ancestors ?
sure . My mom has been working on our family tree for years . She ' s always updating it .
do you have a copy of your family tree in your house ? I ' d love to see it .
I can show it to you now , if you like . I think it goes back about 8 generations so far .
that ' s amazing . Do you have a large extended family ?
I ' Ve got 30 cousins on my mom ' s side and 10 cousins on my dad ' s side .
are you very close to your first-cousins ?
the ones that are my age are close relatives . Now that I ' m older , I don ' t spend as much time with them as I used to , so I don ' t know my younger cousins as well as the older ones .
I see . who ' s the head of your household ?
it ' s definitely my mother . And , her mother is definitely the matriarch of the bigger family .
that ' s interesting . What does your grandfather think of your step-mother ?
at first , she was quite critical of her , but now that they ' Ve been married for a few years , she ' s starting to accept the fact that my father divorced my mother .
You're going to have coffee , aren't you ?
Yes . I could use a cup of coffee .
Are you going to have anything to eat ?
French toast sounds good . What are you going to order ?
Can I ask for leave this afternoon ?
What is the problem ?
I had a headache this morning . I didn ' t pay attention to it . I thought probably it is because I didn ' t sleep well . But now it is getting worse and worse . I feel quite dizzy now and my eyes are somehow very light-sensitive . Maybe it is the migrated .
It is ok . You look really pale and red eyes . I suggest you go home immediately and have a good rest .
Today , you need to pay 20 RIB in handling fees .
Can't you just take it from my account ? I can't be bothered with cash dealings today .
I must tell you that because your banking has been such a large amount , you need to wait until you leave the country to get any currency back .
You mean , if there is any left over ?
Yes , totally . It's nice to meet a customer who understands the system .
Right , so the deposit , if I don't draw on it will be blocked after you get the Deposit Certification ?
Well , thank you . Mr . Parry , for all your information . Just one more question .
Yes , sir ?
Do you play any sports or games ?
I used to play football regularly when I was at university . And I used to do athletics in the summer .
And what athletics did you play ? Can you remember ?
I was a runner-a long-distance runner .
And now ?
No . I'm afraid I haven't had time since I got married .
Well , thank you again for coming to see us . But just remember that we like people who join the company to play in the company sports teams .
Hello , Could I speak to Mary , please ? This is Mrs . Fort here .
This is Mary speaking .
Ah , Mary , good evening . Look , I was wondering if you like to come to a party we are having on Friday ? There are many coming from the office .
I really don ' t know how to teach my son . He's getting far above himself .
You should send him to the boarding school . He need a strict teacher .
Here is my ticket and seat assignment .
Thank you . That way , PLS .
May I have a pillow and blanket , PLS ?
An attendant will pass them around after we take off .
May I have headphones for the in-flight movie ?
No problem . Here are your headphones . Do you want something to drink ?
Can I help you ?
Yes , I'm looking for a house .
To buy or to rent ?
Oh , to rent .
How much do you want to pay ?
About 300 a month .
Well , I've got one here . It's 260 a month .
How big is it ?
It's got a kitchen , a bathroom , and one bedroom .
Well , actually I prefer something a bit bigger if that's possible .
Yes , I think so . There is also an interesting one . It's opposite the park .
How much is it ?
It's 325 a month . It's the biggest we've got in this area .
What's it like ?
Well , There're two bedrooms , a sitting room , a kitchen and a bathroom .
It sounds interesting . Can I go and see it ?
Lucy , what are your priorities when buying a car ?
I guess the first thing is the price , the second is the size , and of course the color will play a role too . But I have to be honest . It is our today ' s responsibility to take care about our environment . Therefore , I will also pay attention to the fuel consumption of the car . You know , the rise in gasoline prices is huge . So I would rather to consider a smaller car with smaller engine . For which I can also save some tax . Last of the list , I also consider the safety .
What about the environmental factors ?
Well , I do prefer the lower emission cars as long as it doesn ' t cost much . Some environmentally-friendly cars are really expensive .
What's your schedule like this year ?
Pretty busy . I have to pick up a lot of credits this year .
What's your major ?
I ' m majoring in French literature .
Oh , don't you have to take that class on 18th century poetry ? It's really difficult . I hear the students in that class have to write a paper a hundred pages long .
That's right . We got the assignment last week .
When is it due ?
Next Monday .
How do you feel ?
Are you ready for your first driving lesson ?
Yes . Which one is the brake again ?
The pedal on your left is the brake and the one on your right is the gas .
I ' m glad this car is an automatic . I don't like having to change gears .
Automatics are very simple to drive . The first thing you should do is put your seat belt on .
You should also put yours on . you never know what will happen with me in the driver ' s seat !
Very funny . Next you should check your side mirrors and your rear view mirror . Can you see out of them ?
I can ' t see anything out of the side mirror on your side of the car . Could you move it forward a bit , please ?
How ' s that ?
That ' s better . Now what ?
Check your petrol situation .
The tank is almost empty . I guess I ' ll drive to the petrol station to fill it up .
That ' s a good idea . Put your keys in the ignition , start it up , put the car in reserve , wait for the road to be clear , and then back out of the driveway .
I got it . Don ' t worry . I ' ll get you there in one piece .
Remember , no honking this time . The horn is only for emergencies !
Do you drink the Robust Milk every day ?
Not every day , but occasionally .
It will make you as fit as a fiddle .
Do you have any special skills ?
I can write computer programs , I have a good command of secretarial skills .
What qualifications have you got ?
I have a doctor license and a driving license .
Do you get special training in office skills ?
I passed both the Cambridge Examinations ( First Certificate and the Certificate of Proficiency in English ); and studied for a year in London at the Lucas Secretarial College , ending with speeds of 120 words per minute in English shorthand and 50 words per minute in typing . I was also trained in office procedure .
Please tell me about work you have done , which qualifies you for this job .
Can you direct me to some fresh produce that's on sale ?
Well , we've got some great mangoes on sale .
Mangoes ? What are mangoes ?
Well , it's a fruit with a big seed in it .
Can you eat the seed ?
No . Peel the skin with a sharp knife , and throw out the seed .
Well , how much are they ?
Well , they're on sale today for only $ 1 each .
Can you describe their taste ?
They usually taste sweet , but they remind me of an orange .
How can I tell if they're ripe ?
You can buy them either ripe or unripe . Unripe ones are hard .
Where do they grow mangoes ?
This is Mary . I just want to let you know that we made an offer to you . The salary is 3,000 yuan a month , I e-mailed the offer to you as well . You can let me know within a week if you accept the offer .
Thank you . I'll go through it and tell you .
We hope you get on board with us , Please let me know as soon as possible .
What's wrong ?
I have a headache . These past few days I've been living off painkillers . Man , I feel like my head is going to explode .
You should get acupuncture treatment . My mom was always having headache issues and it was acupuncture that cured her .
The results are too slow . On top of that , just the thought of smoking needles poking into my flesh frightens me .
They don't just randomly stick you , they find your pressure points . The heat allows the body to immediately respond to the treatment , restoring the body's " chi " .
But I get scared the moment I see a needle . How could I stand having needles in my body for hours on end ?
The needles are very thin , and as long as the doctor's technique is good , and the patient himself is relaxed , it won't hurt-on the contrary it will actually alleviate pain . Now there are high-tech needles that are micro thin ; they don't hurt at all . However , if you are really scared of acupuncture , scraping or cupping are also options .
Scraping is too terrifying . When they finish scrapping , your body is all red , as if you were just tortured . Cupping is the same , your body ends up with red circles all over . It looks like someone beat you up .
This only signifies that the toxins have left the body . Actually , there is only discomfort during the treatment process . Once it's over you feel very comfortable .
Chinese medicine is strange . The patients are already ill , and then the doctor makes them suffer more .
This is the only way to get at the problem . Anyway , if you want to relieve the pain , you are just going to have to be tough and do it .
Are you Liu Yan ?
That's right .
Have you brought your credentials ?
Yes , here you are .
Let me have a look .
OK .
Your resume says you worked at DK Company for two years . What were you responsible for ?
I was responsible for sales .
Have you received any honorable title personally ?
Yes , I was twice singled out as an ' Advanced Worker ' .
Do you have desserts ?
Yes , we have many kinds of pies and puddings .
Can you give us more information ?
Sure . We have lemon pies , apple pies , coffee rum pies and ice cream .
I was meaning to ask you if you saw the basketball game on Friday .
I wanted to go , but I couldn't .
It was a great game .
It's too bad that I couldn't make it . Who won ?
Our team played hard and won .
I really wish I went to the game .
It was the best game ever .
So tell me the final score .
The other team lost by three points , 101-98 .
It must've been a close game .
It really was . You should've gone .
Can you imagine having a million dollars ?
Yes , and I know a few things I'd spend the money on .
Yeah , me too .
Dad , can I have a pet ? I did what you said and passed all of my exams .
Then I guess you get to have a pet . Do you know what you want ?
I want a dog . My friend Mindy's dog just had puppies and she said I can have one .
You know who will be responsible for feeding and cleaning and all of that stuff ?
I know , I know . I will do it all by myself .
Have you figured out the costs involved with feeding and caring for it ?
Yes . It will cost me about $ 50 a month . And I make a little more than that already .
Guess what ! I know something you don't know !
What's that ?
How many planets are there in the solar system ?
That's easy . Everyone knows that there are nine .
Not anymore ! Can you believe it ? They've decided that Pluto is not a planet anymore !
Nice try . I wasn't born yesterday , you know .
I'm dead serious . They've decided that it's too small to be a planet , but actually they haven't yet agreed on how big something has to be in order to be a planet anymore .
That sounds crazy . But they can't just change their mind about things like that .
Yes , they can . If you remember correctly , people used to believe that the world was flat .
I suppose you're right . They also used to think that they were so important that the sun revolved around them , not the other way around .
We actually know relatively little about space and the cosmos .
Do you think that we'll one day be able to travel to another planet for a vacation ?
I suppose we could actually live on a planet outside of the milky way .
Do you think we'll ever get to meet an alien from outer space ?
I hope not . I think they would be a threat to those of us that lived on the Earth .
You're so old-fashioned . That's what people used to think about people from another country !
What are you going to take ?
Roast pork chops with a bottle of red wine , please . Is soup served here ?
Of course . What kind of soup do you like ? Clear or thick ?
Can I still get tickets for tonight's performance ?
The balcony is still available .
Aren't there any other seats ?
Professor , I will not be here for our next class meeting .
Is this absolutely necessary ?
I tried to work something out , but I really do have to miss one class .
Will you be able to make up the work you missed ?
I'm going to be doing a lot of extra reading .
Remember that I will only let you miss one class meeting per semester .
Yes , I remember .
Could you e-mail me this week as a reminder ?
Sure , no problem .
How often do you have English lessons ?
I have a lesson once a week but I try to practice every day .
How do you practice ?
I usually look at English language websites every day and go to my local English Corner twice a week .
Do you ever speak to native speakers of English ?
To be frank , I find philosophy rather boring .
To tell you the truth , it's the most tedious course I'ever had .
How could you manage to pass the exam ?
Do you have the letter of approval of employment ?
No , I haven't got one . My employment petition hasn't been approved yet .
In that case , you are not allowed to work in China , until you get the employment petition .
Room service . What can I do for you ?
I have just checked in this afternoon . I am wondering what shall I do if I want to have some clothes washed .
There is a laundry form in your room ars well as a bag . Fill out the form and put them together with the laundry in the bag . The maid will come and pick it up .
Well Mr . Black , I appreciate your interest in our company , but I doubt you can do this job properly .
I ' m sure I can do it well . I ' Ve always wanted to be the best in whatever I did . Give me a chance .
I wish I could . But you even don ' t have a B . A , so I ' m sorry to say there ' s no chance .
You ' re questioning my ability ? I tell ya , I can make it ! I ' ll talk to your boss .
Mr . Black , I don ' t think my boss will talk to you . It ' s a Chinaman ' s chance .
Good morning , Loans .
Good morning , Mr . Smith .
I would like to compliment you on your diligence .
Well , thank you , Mr . Smith . But I was just doing my job .
Yes . And we're proud of you , Loans .
Ann ! Don ' t you see the children are making so much noise here ? Why don ' t you keep them occupied and out their mother ' s hair ?
OK ! What about taking them outside and flying a kite .
Are you sure you heard right ?
Yes , he is running for class president .
I don't believe you .
First of all , thank you for accepting this job .
It ' s my pleasure .
What are your salary expectations ?
Would you please tell me about your pay skill first ?
We ' ll offer you a monthly salary to begin with , in addition , we offer one percent commission and all your sales . You also enjoy life insurance and health insurance . What ' s starting salary would you expect here ?
They sum my skills and experience . I ' d like to start it with 4000 yuan a month .
That sounds reasonable .
Do I have paid vacation ?
Do you like ice skating ?
I have never tried it .
Then you've got to try it . Let's go to the skating rink on Thursday .
Sorry , I don't think I can .
Friday then . How about it ?
Friday is great .
Did I do well on my driving test ?
You did a wonderful job .
So , I passed ?
Yes , you passed .
Did I mess up on anything ?
You did mess up on something .
What was that ?
Your parallel parking isn't all that great .
Yeah , that's pretty hard for me .
You just need a little more practice .
I know , but I still get my license , right ?
I just discovered that I owe $ 10 for a movie that I never ordered .
Let me check , sir . You were charged for watching ' Titanic ' Monday night .
That is absolutely incorrect ! I was out on the town Monday night .
Okay , sir , bear with me a moment .
Thank you for taking my word over the computer's word .
One slight problem , sir . I need to charge you $ 2 to remove this error from your file .
You can
I feel your pain , sir .
Absolutely unbelievable ! You people should be ashamed of yourselves .
Hi ! It's still seven o'clock . Are you crazy ?
I got the information that there is a killer sale at the shopping mall near our block . Get up and I will wait for you at the gate of our flat .
Every time when you glimpse some stylish clothes , you change into another person .
Stop complaining , OK ?
No wonder you are named shopaholic .
No , I am not a shopaholic , but a super shopaholic . And I really enjoy smelling the gorgeous clothes and new bags .
Did you hear the good news ?
No , I haven't .
I got a promotion at my job .
Did you really ?
Seriously , I am so excited .
Well , congratulations .
Thank you .
I'm so happy for you .
Really ?
Yes . You really deserved this .
You think so ?
Have you met John ?
Yeah , he came back from America last week .
Have you noticed how fluently he speaks English ? He has only lived in America for less than three months .
Hello Michael .
Hello Todd .
We're going to talk about Australia . Or your going to talk about Australia . So first of all how any people live in Australia ?
Australia ? Oh , there's about twenty million people in Australia right now . A little bit under , but close to twenty .
OK . What are the biggest cities ?
The biggest city ? The biggest city is Sydney , then it's followed by Melbourne and then Brisbane and then I think it's Perth . But most of the big cities are on the East Coast of Australia . And Perth is on the west coast , but sort of of out there by itself .
OK . Um , if you had to live in one place where would you live ?
I like Brisbane . I had my teenage years in Brisbane , growing up in Brisbane , um or maybe Sidney because it is a big city , but Brisbane has got the gold coast and the sunshine .
Oh , nice . Actually , what is the capital city of Australia ?
How's everything , Janice ?
I sent my resume to a computer company and am waiting for their call .
Which company ?
Pineapple Computer Company . A secretary is needed there , and it is worth a try . Do you get any information or advertisement for employment ?
Yep ! I got some , in which I am interested . But ...
But what ? You always act like this , when you face difficulties .
YOU GET ME !
All the fears are nothing . You can make it . There is no other choice for you . Be brave .
Seemingly there is no turning back . I have to face it somehow .
How do you like Tom ?
I like him very much . He ' s a gay dog .
Are you ready to welcome him ?
Excuse me , this is my first time on a plane . How do I check in ?
May I see your ticket , please ?
Yes . Here you are .
You can get a boarding pass at that counter . Do you have anything to check in ?
No , I only have a handbag .
Then you could wait in the departure area after going through security .
Is that all ?
Yeah , I think so . It is very simple .
The mosquitos are biting me !
Me , too , I can ' t stop scratching . They are everywhere ! Sneaky little jerks .
Do you have any bug spray ?
No , I forgot to buy some .
Then we ' ll have to put up with it .
We can cover ourselves with beer ! That way if they bite us , they ' ll get drunk and fall asleep .
That ' s without a doubt , the best idea you ' Ve had ! Let ' s do it !
I don ' t dare to look after the children now .
Why ?
The children always make themselves in danger . I always have my heart in my mouth with them .
Steve , thanks for looking after Johnny .
It was a pleasure , Mrs . Robinson .
And this kitchen is so clean . Did you help Johnny with that ?
I helped break ... I mean WASH ... all the dishes !
That's great . And the garbage , too ?
Yeah , uh , it's outside . Listen , I really have to be going now .
Can I help you ?
I hope so . I'm looking for some material for a paper I'm writing , and I'm not quite sure where to look .
I'll certainly try to help you . What topic is your paper on ?
My paper is on the influence of television on children .
There are several possible sources you might use for that topic . I suggest you use the computer and the computer will give you a list of every scientific journal that talks about children and television .
Ouch , it ' s unbearable .
Please keep calm . I know the pain isn ' t what flesh and blood can stand . But be brave .
I ' d like to check in please .
Certainly . Can I have the name please ?
Mr Harold Smith .
Ok , Are you checking out tomorrow ?
Yes , I am . That ' s right .
Will you need a wake up call , sir ?
Yes please . At 6 . 30 am .
Ok then , your room is 502 on the fifth floor . Breakfast is served between 6 . 30 am and 9am . Enjoy your stay .
Speaking of classical music , we should never forget about the New Year's Concert of the Vienna Philharmonic .
Of course not . People all over the world watch it on TV , or listen to it on the radio .
Sure . It's one of the biggest classical music events . Have you ever been to the live show ?
Yes , I went to the New Year ' s Concert in 2010 .
Wow , you're so lucky . I saw it on TV . But it must be so different to be there in the concert hall .
What had make you so upset ?
Frank has gone out with Lucy again .
What ' s wrong with that ?
Good morning .
Good morning .
What's the problem ?
I'm running a high fever and feeling terribly bad .
How long have you had that problem ?
Since last night .
Then , you'd better go to the Medical Department . But first , you should fill in the registration card and the registration fee is one Yuan .
Fine . But can you tell me how to get to the Medical Department , please ?
Take the lift to the third floor and then go along until you see the sign on your right .
Thanks a lot .
I want to get on the bus already .
It just isn't on time today .
It was supposed to be here thirty minutes ago .
I think it'll be here pretty soon .
I need to get to work , so it better .
I really do hate public transportation .
I agree , it's just never on time .
That's right .
I also hate having to stand at a bus stop in all kinds of weather .
Oh , that's the worst .
We need to get a car .
He is planning again .
Yeah . But whatever the planes are , he always has an eye to money .
Good morning , Miss Wu ! Can I ask you something ?
Certainly . You are more welcome to do . What is it ?
Tomorrow is my wife's birthday . We both love spicy Chinese dishes . I am wondering if you could recommend a good local restaurant where I can find some good spicy dishes .
Well , if spicy local dishes are what you are looking for , In Hua Restaurant is the best place to go . The restaurant serves very good and spicy local dishes . You might want to try there .
How far is it from here ?
It is near the university . Five minutes ' walk from your flat , I think .
Great . We'll go and have a try . Thank you very much .
You're welcome . May you have a good time . Please give my regards to your wife . I wish her a happy birthday tomorrow .
Hello , Mr . Thomas . Could you spare a minute ?
What do you need ?
I need to talk to you about that new driver you ' Ve hired . I think I am going to have some problems working with him .
David , do you think which team will get the champion tonight ?
It is hard to guess now . Both of the teams chose the excellent players this time . I guess the game will end in a tie . They are equally matched .
I am so nervous now . What a terrific game !
Which side are you on ?
It's hard to say , because each team has my idols .
Wow ! AC wins . It is a close shave , you know .
I will never forget this match . The angle is so terrible and so correct .
Something wrong ?
Yes . My car is having problems .
What's wrong ?
It won't start .
Do you want me to take a look ?
No , thank you . I think I can handle it .
Well , if you change your mind , let me know .
I will . Thanks . That's sweet of you .
No problem .
I might need some tools though . Do you know where I can get some ?
Sure . I have all kinds of tools . Just ask . I ' ll be happy to get them for you .
Thanks . That would be very helpful .
Anything for you . Seriously , I don ' t mind helping .
Excuse me !
Yes ?
Is this your handbag ?
Pardon ?
Is this your handbag ?
That was a nice funeral .
Yes , dad , it was .
The son gave a nice speech about his father .
It was long , too .
I think it was about 45 minutes long .
But it went by fast . It was interesting .
I liked it .
I'll give you a speech like that , too .
Do you think anyone will come to my funeral ?
Of course .
I think only the family will be there .
The government is going to organize a folk-custom activity at the end of the month . And our community is supposed to put on a performance .
What kind of performance ? A lion dance ?
Stuff like that but I think the lion dance is a bit too difficult and dangerous .
Sure , you'll be dancing with lions . What do you expect ? Then what about Range Dance which we did before .
Good idea . Shall we get everyone in the community ?
Maybe not . I think we should just focus on the retired people .
I know that they already have a Range Dance team and then what we need is just to do some rehearsals .
What about the costumes ?
We can raise money in the community . You know each family 10 yuan maybe .
Try something new . We can find a supporting agency .
I think I've got a virus on my computer . Do you know how to get rid of it ? I haven't had one before .
I'm afraid not . Why don't you call the Help Desk ? Someone there will be able to help you .
Sorry sir . But you can ' t go into the OR .
All right , but tell me what ' s happening . Give it to me straight please .
It was touching girl for a while .
And now ?
She will be OK . She is a tough cookie .
That ' s great news .
In my opinion she will up about soon .
That ' s good to hear . She is usually full of vein and vigor .
I believe it . Well , I ' Ve got to go back in .
Thanks for helping her , doctor .
All right . Just relax , OK ? Go and got a cup of coffee .
Hi , I Want a room , please .
Good afternoon , sir . Welcome to our hotel . What kind of room would you like , sir ?
I need a taxi to the airport .
So Kim , have you ever had anything stolen ?
Stolen ? No , why ?
My uncle just had his motorcycle stolen a few nights ago . I was just thinking about how clever criminals are these days .
Criminals are clever ? They ' re only successful when people are careless .
I don ' t know . The ones who stole my uncle ' s motorcycle were pretty good .
If your uncle had an alarm system , then it wouldn ' t have happened .
He did . It was one of the best ones available . But that didn ' t stop them from disabling it . And on a crowded street too .
Didn ' t anyone stop them ?
You would think that people would be smart enough to stop something like that . No one knew his motorcycle was being stolen . The thieves came in a truck and convinced everybody that my uncle was parked illegally and they were there to tow it away .
Wow , they were good . I guess criminals aren ' t that dumb after all .
Tom , did you see the film last night ?
Yes , I did , I thought it was a failure .
Do you really think so ? I don't think so . It wasn't that bad film at all . Didn't you hear the applause of the audience ?
Well , maybe so . But I still think everyone has their rights of their own opinion .
Happy New Year , Rose .
Happy New Year , Thomas . How many joys nice drinks with us , will you ?
Thank you , I will . What are you up to today ?
First , I am going to get ready for the parade , I have a great costume . Then later today , I am going to church . If you want , I can give you a costume , and you can be at parade too . It will be fun
Sure , why not . Sounds like fun . Why are you going to church ?
My father likes to go , and I told him I will go with him .
What for ?
Suit wrote me a letter .
What did she say ?
She got a master degree , and now she is going for her doctor .
Really ? I can't believe it .
It's not a surprise , is it ? She has always been a hard working student .
Ah ! No ! Damn it !
It's a blackout . Now I can't see Seinfeld .
So what ? I just lost one hour's worth of work .
Really ? How could you do that ? Don't you save every couple minutes ?
No , I didn't save this time . Damn it ! And I'm sick of writing this paper . Now I have to write it all over again too .
I've had that problem too many times . So I learned to save . When I'm writing something , I save every three sentences or so . I don't want to lose anything .
I hate computers . Sometimes I think they cause more trouble than they're worth .
What are we going to do now ?
I don't know . I feel like going out .
I wonder how much of the city is down .
It doesn't matter . I still can go out and buy a beer .
Maybe . But if there's a blackout , probably the pubs are closed . And besides , I know you have a political science exam tomorrow . I thought you had a lot of reading to do .
Yes , that's true . Damn ! I just lost half my paper , and now I can't even do my homework . This is a bad time for this to happen .
Actually the general manager is regarded as a baby doll . He has much sympathy .
That's right . And his wife is a baby doll , too . She used to have many followers .
Were you one of them ?
What kind of personality do you think you have ?
I'm easy to approach and friendly to everyone .
Do you think you are introverted or extroverted ?
I'm quite outgoing , I think .
Are you more of a follower or a leader ?
You're not looking happy . What ' s the matter ?
Oh , nothing special . I'm just a bit tired .
With the job ?
With everything , with everybody , with all this !
A good suggestion for you . You need a holiday .
It wasn't always like this , you know .
What do you mean ?
Well , I mean . We always do the same thing . There ' s no variety in our lives .
You need a holiday . That ' s what's the matter .
I really want to go to China for vacation , but I can't find a cheap plane ticket .
Have you tried the Internet ?
No , not yet . Can you find a good price there ?
Wow , you really live in the Stone Age , Mom .
Well , you don't have to be mean . How do I do it ?
Go to www . yahoo . com and click on Travel and tickets . There are about a billion sites to look at .
Ok , thanks . I'll let you know what I find .
All right .
I hate this kind of weather !
When I was a kid , there was a weather who said there is no such thing as bad weather .
I think he had water on the brain . This is bad .
He said there are only all kinds of good weather .
Okay , Pollyanna , what's so good about this weather ?
Well , for one , we have an excuse to stay home .
We ' get ' to stay home ? Do you know something that I don't ?
Look ! Allen has the mic !
I thought he only liked to listen !
That was before he heard Stanley sing ! I guess he couldn't stand it any more , so he decided to give it a try himself !
( Sound of Allen singing ) Hey , Allen has a really good voice ! He sounds like Johnny Dean !
Hey , let ' s go to the night market after work tonight .
That ' s a good idea . I haven ' t been in a while and I need to get a new backpack . The old one is hanging on by a thread !
That radio's pretty loud . Could you turn it down , please ?
Sorry . Was I disturbing you ?
Yes . And something else , please don't borrow my clothes without asking .
Hi , Julie . I was in your neighborhood and I'd like to drop by .
Come on in . Would you care for a drink ?
Hello , thanks for calling 123 Tech Help , I ' m Todd . How can I help you ?
Hello ? Can you help me ? My computer ! Oh man ...
It ' s okay sir , calm down . What happened ?
I turned on my laptop and it broke ! I mean , the monitor went black !
Ok , sir , it sounds like you might have a virus .
I don ' t feel sick , ... let me check ... Nope ! No fever , I ' m fine .
No , your computer might have a virus , I mean , it has a bad program on it . Maybe that ' s why it crashed . I recommend that you run an antivirus program in order to safely remove any unwanted spyware or Trojans .
good afternoon , madam . How can I help you ?
well , I am a little bit out of shape . I think I should get some exercise to keep fit . what kind of service do you offer ?
first of all , we'll tailor a work-out plan according to your physical conditions and your personal needs .
how can you get that done ?
well , we give each of our customers a qualified personal trainer . The trainer will give you a fitness assessment and then come up with the work-out plan .
what else ?
since everyone is different , your personal trainer will help you find out all the exercise equipments that are suitable for you fitness level . Then you'llbe taught all the necessary techniques to us
sounds pretty good . How much do you charge ?
that depends . We offer membership for one month , half a year and one year .
perhaps one month . I'll just have a try at first .
wise decision . that is 400 yuan . You'll find it's totally worth it .
Would you please tell me something about the agriculture and industry of New Zealand ?
The agriculture in New Zealand is highly mechanized . The industry mainly focuses on the manufacture of agriculture and stockbreeding products .
I see .
If you need any further information , please don't hesitate to ask me .
As you know I ' Ve been thinking about moving my career in a new direction . I am hoping that you will be able to provide me with a reference to help me jump-start my future .
I realize that I ' m not in a position to offer you the kind of promotion you deserve I'll gladly do what I can to help .
Thank you . I ' Ve really enjoyed my time here . I've grown both personally and professionally with this company .
And , as well as being a pleasure to work with , you ' Ve been instrumental in helping us complete many key projects .
It will be hard to say good-bye . This office has become like a second home to me .
Doctor , here's my report for my IVP examination .
Let me have a look . Can you see there's a stone in your kidney ?
Oh , yes , is it dangerous ?
No , but it's painful .
Do I have to have an operation ?
No , it's not necessary since the stone is not big .
Good , I can still attend the Olympic Games .
Yes , you're lucky . But you should go to the Ultrasonic Department to disperse the stone . Meanwhile , I'll give you some herbal medicine .
Eric , how long will you be in China ?
I don't know . Well , my contract here is for one year , and I don't know what I should do after that . Maybe going around for a while .
Well , have you ever thought about learning some Chinese ?
Actually , I am learning that now . But it's too hard for me . You know the four tones and the stuff . It really freaks me out .
Don't worry . All things are difficult before they are easy .
You hit the nail right on the head .
Well , are you invested in some language-exchange program ?
What is it ?
It's where I teach you Chinese , and in exchange you teach me English .
Awesome . I've been giving this a lot of thought . When can we do this ?
How about this sunday ?
Ok , cool .
Good . I'll give you a call tonight .
No problem .
You have got a problem , haven't you ?
Yes . I am getting fat . What should I do ?
Hi ! Wang Mei . Come and have a look at my new dress .
Oh ! What a beautiful dress ! It fits you so well . You look so charming in the dress .
Thank you for saying so .
Where did you buy it ?
I bought it in a store near my school .
How much is it ?
It's only thirty yuan .
It's so cheap . I'll buy one , too .
I booked a double room for tonight . My name is Ruth Joy .
When is your birthday ?
August 1st .
Do you usually have a birthday party ?
Yes , we do . My parents prepare dinner for me .
What would you do at the party ?
We sing " Happy Birthday " at the party and have birthday cakes .
Do you know when people began to sing the song " Happy Birthday " ?
Well , I don't know .
Let me tell you the story . In 1892 , Patty Smith Hill and Mildred Hill wrote a song called ' Good Morning to you ' . But later someone added the words ' Happy Birthday ' to their tune .
So the ' Happy Birthday ' song has been popular since then ?
Excuse me . Could you give me some directions ?
What are you looking for ?
A gas station . My car ran out of gas two blocks back .
Walk straight ahead until you come to the second traffic light . Then turn right .
Do you know the name of the street ?
I can't remember , but it's the second light .
By the way , do you know the price of the gas now ?
I'm afraid I don't . But I do know the price has gone up .
Did you do anything fun over the weekend ?
I didn't want to go out last weekend , so I decided to stay at home and watch a movie .
Why didn't you want to go out ?
I was very tired after working all week . Sometimes on the weekend I don't have enough energy to go out to a movie theater .
Did you download a movie or rent it at the store ?
How are you making out ?
I'm doing fine . Don ' t mind me . It ' s a wonderful birthday party . Everyone is enjoying himself .
I hope so . Thank you again for your delightful gift .
How many foreign languages can you speak ?
Only English .
What do you think of your English ?
I have passed CET - 6 and I am proficient in reading and translating foreign materials . I have rich translating experience because I used to be an English translator .
Can you speak English fluently ?
I have received an oral English training and I can communicate with others fluently .
Did you take TOEFL or GRE ?
Yes , I did . I got 600 in TOEFL and 2 , 300 in GRE .
When did you begin to learn English ?
I started to learn English when I was in primary school .
Do you think your English is good enough to do office work ?
Hello ! Do you have a place where I can exercise ?
Yes , sir . We have a fine exercise facility .
I'm happy to hear that . Now , would you tell me where it is ?
You're actually standing above it . Just take the elevator or stairs down one level .
Is the hotel going to charge me a dollar a minute for gym use ?
No , sir . There's no extra charge . All you need is your room key to open the door .
And the gym hours are ?
Sir , you'll be pleased to know that our gym never closes .
One more question , Do you have a trainer ?
What do you plan to do for your birthday ?
I want to have a picnic with my friends , Mum .
How about a party at home ? That way we can get together and celebrate it .
Do you like climbing ?
Yes , I like it very much .
How about climbing up the Fragrant Mountain tomorrow ?
Where is it ?
It is located at the east foot of Western Mountain of Beijing , in a park with the same name . There are some huge stones within the mountain which look like the censer , so it is called ' Fragrant Mountain ' .
Have you visited it before ?
Many times . Except climbing , there are many attractions worth visiting .
Like what ?
It is the best season to view red leaves from the Mid-October to the first ten days of November . During the period , thousands of hectares of maples on the sloping field are so red that you would recognize them as fallen petals by mistake if looking from a further area . The bright red , pink , scarlet , and peach-puff leaves are distributed in different layout , with some green pines and cypresses dotted in between .
Sounds marvelous .
You can take a bird-eye view at the glorious picture when you arrive at the top of the mountain .
It's very cold tonight !
Can I get you another blanket ?
0h , that would be nice of you .
I'll turn the heat up .
Forest Restaurant . What can I do for you ?
May I make a reservation ?
Of course . At what time ?
The four of us will be there at 7:00 this evening .
I was wondering if I could borrow the company van for a fundraiser this weekend .
Sure , I think that would be possible . Where is the fundraiser ?
It is in the park downtown .
Would you need it for both Saturday and Sunday ?
We will need it for Saturday only .
I think that would be OK . Who will be driving it ?
Mary and I will be driving the van .
Could you drop it off on Sunday night ?
Yes , we can do that . Can we borrow the chairs from the lunchroom also ?
I don't know how John can put up with his son , who fools around without working .
He's out of John's hands . Nothing he can do about such a black sheep .
Are your ready to go to the supermarket ?
Yes , are you ?
I've got my money and my keys , so I'm ready .
You do know that it's absolutely freezing out , don't you ? I'd put a coat on if I were you .
It wasn't cold out this morning .
Well , it's started raining since then . Look out the window ! It's pouring rain out there !
Well , I guess we'd better grab our umbrellas then , as well .
Have a look outside for me . Does that look like hail to you ?
It does , actually . Maybe we should wait for it to clear up before we go shopping .
That's a good idea . But maybe we should move the car so that the hail doesn't dent it .
Ok . I'll go move the car if you turn the heat on . It's a bit chilly in here .
How long do you think this hailstorm is supposed to last ?
I don't know . The weatherman didn't say anything about this in his weather report last night .
Maybe we should turn on the news in case it's supposed to get worse .
I don't think we have anything to worry about . Do you want to put on a cup of tea as well ?
Good idea . That will help us to warm up .
If I'm not back in ten minutes , come and find me .
You wouldn't believe what I got in the mail today !
what's that ?
it's a letter from Ray and Sue in Shanghai !
have you read it yet ?
no , I thought I'd wait until you got home .
go on , read it out loud .
ok . It says , " Dear Jessica . It was so good to receive you letter . I sounds like you and Riley are settling into your new home with ease ... "
when did you send her a letter ?
just a few weeks ago . Sue and I send letters to each other often .
I didn't know anyone did that any more . Ok , go on .
ok ... I'm going to have to skip over this section . It's girl-talk .
that's fine with me .
oh . It's actually all rather personal .
well , skip over all of that and read me the rest .
ok , it just says , ball , blah , blah ... " Ray and I look forward to seeing you in June . Write soon . With love , Sue . "
are we going to see them in June or are they coming to see us ?
didn't I tell you ? We're going to Shanghai to stay with them in June .
oh , I guess I missed that .
Excuse me . May I see Mrs . Smith ?
It's me . What can I do for you ?
Nice to meet you , Mrs . Smith . I'm coming here for an interview by appointment .
Are you Mr . Wu ?
Yes , I am .
Nice to meet you , too . Did you have any difficulty finding our company ?
Thank God , it's Friday ! Time for a drink ! Let's hit the bars !
OK . I don't mind going bar hopping with an expert like you .
Should we start with beer or wine or go straight to the hard liquor ?
I think I'll have a glass of wine . Let's see ... they have red wine , white wine and port . They even have sangria ! It's the happy hour special .
Port's too sweet . It's a dessert wine . A dry red French wine would be nice with meat . A glass of chilled white German wine would be good with fish . But , we're not eating and it's hot out , so I think I'll have a tall glass of sangria with ice .
Good choice ! But , what's your favorite kind of hard liquor ?
Excuse me , Don ? I hate to bother you , but I need your help on something . Do you have time to brief me on the Martin account today ?
Oh , that's right . You are supposed to deliver a brief on that account tomorrow . I know there are some things I need to share with you about that . But , gosh , I don't know ... Things are really busy for me today , the only time I can manage to squeeze out might be over lunch break ...
I hate to make you work through your lunch break with how busy you are ...
It's okay ... I've already had several days in a row working through lunch ...
How about this ... We can make it a working lunch this afternoon , and I'll order some Chinese food for delivery . It'll be my treat .
You don't have to do that ...
I insist . I really appreciate you taking time to work with me in . What is your favorite fast food ? I'll cater to your taste .
Actually I do like Chinese ... Let's make it a date for Chop Suey and the Martin account at about twelve thirty . Does that sound good ?
Houston restaurant . Is there anything I can do for you ?
Yes . When do you start severing dinner ?
We open at 6:00 and take last orders at 10 :: 30 .
Well , that's fine . So I don't think it necessary for us to make a reservation . We will be there at 9:30 .
Excuse me . Is there any body here ?
Yes .
I've finished up all my water . I would kill for a sip of water .
Sure , come on in .
Thank you very much . Are you here alone ?
My father and sister are out to photographing . What about you ?
I'm a back-packer from America .
What is a back-packer ?
It means a hiker who loves traveling around the world .
Cool . You must have been to a lot of places .
Yes , actually almost half of all the countries over the world . I love traveling places .
So cool . I want to be a back-packer when I grow up .
You can do it . But do work hard on your English to make it easier .
Our major is from a bigger city .
He ' s doing fine . A new broom sweeps clean .
He brings with him some talented people from his former city .
Steven , have a rest . Could you have a talk with me ?
OK ! What can I do for you , Madam ?
Janice has just got sick and I need a hand now . Could you come here earlier tomorrow morning ?
When do you want me to come ?
Let me think . About half past seven if it is okay for you .
Hello ! I'd like to get busy on my computer , but I need some broadband .
There's an Ethernet cable in your room . Just plug it into the back of your laptop .
Uh-oh ! I can't use Ethernet . My computer is wireless only .
That's okay . I can tell you about some alternatives we have .
Any alternative that works will be great .
Well , there's our computer lab on the first floor .
That sounds good . What's the charge ?
The lab and the computers are no charge , but you have to pay for whatever you print .
That sounds good . Now , how about the other alternatives ?
Of course . Our lobby is set up for wireless , so just bring your computer down here .
Use my laptop in the lobby ? That's great ! Now , if I need to print something there ?
Mr . Smith , how was your flight ?
Rather nice .
What was the weather like in New York ?
I need to eat something .
You just ate .
I know , but I'm hungry again .
There's no food left from dinner .
I think I'm going to go make myself a snack .
Do you know what kind of snack that you want ?
I'm not exactly sure .
Why don't you make yourself a sandwich or something ?
I have no idea what kind of sandwich I want to make .
A PB & J is pretty easy to make .
I'm going to do that .
I'm going to the hospital to see Susan Green .
I saw her yesterday . She was a little better .
Must I catch a number 7 bus to get there ?
No , you needn't . A number 13 bus will also take you to the hospital .
Number 13 buses run much more frequently , don't they ?
Yes . I caught a number 7 bus yesterday , and I had to wait for half an hour at the bus stop
Thank you , Henry . I'll get a number 13 .
Tom , you promised to cut the lung . You won't forget , will you ?
No , I assure you .
And you'll repair the television , won't you ?
Ok .
Do you promise ?
Of course .
And Tom , you will help Johnny with his homework , won't you ?
I'll see . I will if I can but I won't promise .
But you'll promise not to be late for dinner tonight , won't you ?
Yes . But only if you ask me nicely .
Tom , darling . You'll try not to be late for dinner tonight , won't you ? Please !
Hello , ladies . I'm firing up the grill . We can eat in an hour or so .
Chips , finger foods , desserts , baked beans . Where're the pork and beef strips ?
Yi-jun , we're in the States . Here it's all burgers , steaks , and dogs .
Ah ... hence the buns and condiments we bought . And this is Holly's potato salad .
You can put stuff on the picnic table . Back to work . The grill is calling me ...
What are the requirements to apply for the position ?
Your major must be computer .
Do you think my educational background suits this position ?
Yes , I ' m quite satisfied with your qualifications .
Does this job require that new employees take any kind of training course ?
Generally speaking , training new members is usually necessary . We offer our new employees a one-week training course .
Could you tell something about the job ?
Yes , of course . You will be responsible for the designing and developing new products and also be in charge of the evaluation of the software programs including complex software systems to ensure product features and operation complaints .
I'm sorry to interrupt you . Please take care not to make a mess while you are selecting goods . If you don't want it , please replace it .
Oh , I'm terribly sorry . but I couldn't find the yoghurt I saw here last time .
What's the brand ?
San Yuan .
Oh , it's out of stock at the moment . Why don't you choose another brand instead ?
I'm not used to other brands .
You can have a try . Maybe you will like it .
Long Distance . May I help you ?
Yes . I'd like to place an overseas call to London . Can I dial direct ?
No , sir . I'm afraid not .
Oh , I see . How about the charges ?
The charges vary according to the types of call you make . The cheapest is a station-to-stcrtion call , then a person-to-person call . The mini charge will apply for the first three minutes , then each additional minute will be charged .
Oh , let me think of it ... Could you put through a collect cal for me ?
Certainly . Who are you calling ?
It's a Mrs . Peters , Marilyn Peters .
And what's the number you are calling ?
It's London , 9981-6432 .
And your name and number ?
My name's Ron Smith and the phone number is 356-2210 .
I understand we will need seven air conditioning units on the two floors . That ' s what you think , yes ?
Yes . You could use five or six units . But five or six wouldn't be very efficient . I recommend seven .
And if we take the Decker units you suggested , what would the price be ?
Let me calculate the price for you . I can give you a 15 % discount if you buy the seven units . Let ' s see here . Your total would be 5929 dollars .
Isn't there any way we can get central air conditioning in this building ?
As I said , it is possible , but it would be much more expensive . I think it would be at least 12000 dollars to do a complete system .
That's too much . We need to use the separate units , I guess .
It's more practical , and the new units really are very quiet . Your customers won't even notice them .
So you say we can do it for 6000 dollars .
Yes , that's for the units . Installation would probably be another 700 to 1000 dollars . But it depends on the time spent , of course .
You mean installation isn't included ? I'm very surprised .
No , Ma'am . Installation isn't included . The price I quoted was just for the units .
In Taipei , you know , the company usually installs the things they sell . They don't charge extra .
I know that , Ma'am . But they would just raise the price of the units to cover their costs . Here in L . A . , installation is charged separately .
Yes , I suppose I should get used to it . But I'm not really willing to spend more than 6000 dollars for this . We haven't even opened yet .
I understand , Ma'am .
And the other company that gave me a quote on this said they could do it for 4000 dollars .
It's a question of quality , Ma'am . At that price , you would not get good equipment . I've been in this business for almost twenty years . I know what happens . If you don't get quality air conditioning now , you will just have to replace the system after two years .
I will tell you what I can agree to . If you can quote me a price of 6000 dollars , installation included , I can accept .
Well .
You do seem like a better company than the other one . So I am willing to pay more than 4000 for you . But I won't pay more than 6000 .
Well , we don't usually do it , but ... I believe we can accommodate you on this . We will do the installation for free . Because we appreciate your business .
So , now we have covered all the important points .
Yes , I think so .
Before we draft the contract , let's examine the details .
Ok , under this contract , we ' ll supply you with 600 dozen T-shirts , S , M and L equally assorted , at USD 100 per dozen , CFR London . Shipment in July . Payment by irrevocable sight LC .
Perfect . But what I ' m concerned about most is the time of delivery .
You may rest assured that shipment will be effected within the time limits stipulated in the contract . But there is also one point I ' d like to stress .
Yes ?
Your LC must be opened at least onemonth before the time shipment , otherwise we won't be able to catch the ship .
No problem . I ' ll have the covering LC opened as soon as I wetback . In addition , would you tell me by whom the commodity inspection is conducted before shipment ?
The goods will be inspected by the China Import & Export Commodity Inspection Bureau . It will then issue certificate of quality and a certificate of weight . These will be taken as final and biding .
Please remember to use both English and Chinese versions and both versions should be equally valid .
Naturally . Each of us keeps one original and two copies .
Then I ' ll come along three days later to put my signature on it .
Jack wonders whether Linda likes him or not .
Why doesn't he ask her ?
He is too scared to ask her .
Hi , Steven , take a seat ! How are things at work ?
It's coming along well , but it is a little delayed .
Can you finish it on time ?
I'm pressed for time and I am afraid I need someone to help me .
OK , I will send Beker to help you . We need to get the brochures done and sent them to our clients on Friday without delay .
Good afternoon . May I help you ?
Yes , I'd like to make a deposit .
Which type of deposit do you prefer , time deposit or current deposit ?
I prefer time deposit .
Okey . The interest rate for time deposit is higher . Could you tell me it's RIB deposit or currency deposit ?
RIB deposit .
Is it your first time to make a deposit here ?
Yes .
The term of time deposit ranges from three months to five years , including three months , six months , one year , two years , three years and five years . How long would you like to keep your deposit ?
Six months .
Fill in this slip in ink , please .
Here you are .
All right . Just a moment , please .
But you should be considerate to the kids , it ' s their nature to play .
What I cannot put up with is that they may even give me a back talk .
Jessie , I ' m afraid I can ' t come back home for dinner tonight .
Not back home for dinner again ? That ' s the third time this week !
I ' m sorry . Our company has just opened . There are always too many things to handle . You know that .
You don ' t have to explain . Suit yourself .
I apologize . You have my word , I ' ll spend some time with you on the weekend . I promise .
We ' ll see .
Morning , Bob . Fancy meeting you here !
Morning , Jenny . Haven't seen you for ages !
Well , I thought I'd come to see you , so here I am .
You did give me a surprise . How have you been ?
Fine , just fine . And you ?
Not so well . I've come down with the flu .
I'm sorry to hear that . Take care of yourself .
It's really great to see you again . How about a drink tonight ?
Sounds wonderful . When shall we make it ?
How about seven ?
OK .
I'll pick you up .
I really have a good time here . Thank you very much .
Keep in touch !
Do you know who ' s just got married ? Old Mc Donald .
Never ! He ' s over 80 , isn ' t he ?
He ' s nearly 90 .
Good gracious ! Are you sure ?
I am . Whatsmore , his wife is 84 .
Is she really ?
Yes , she is . And guess what , he is her sixth husband .
I want to buy two tickets for tonight's concert .
Sure . How do you like your seats ?
Ordinary one , please .
Ok , here are your tickets in Row 13 .
I think they are too far from the stage . I want two in row 6 .
Honey , please forgive me . There is lots of work to do . So , I forget your birthday .
Hi ! Bob , are you having problems with that ?
Yes , how should I set up my new computer ?
It's easy , let me help you .
Why did your parents make you stay at home ?
They wanted to go out , and so they made me look after my baby brother .
Didn't you mind doing it ?
No , I didn't . My brother was very good and I did quite a lot of homework .
Didn't you even want to go to the cinema ?
Not really . I watched television for an hour .
What was on television last night ?
Boxing . It was excellent .
Oh . I enjoy watching boxing on television , too . What a pity I missed it last night !
What did you do last night ?
Excuse me , I'd like to make a suit of this material .
Well , sir . Can I take your measurements first ?
Yes . Should I take off my coat ?
That'll be helpful . All right , thank you .
Please make a single-breasted .
No , problem . If you'll wait one moment , I'll make out your receipt .
How much does it cost ?
Let me see , with padding and lining cloth , it comes to 357 dollars altogether .
All right . When can I get it ?
In two weeks .
Excuse me . I need to refill this prescription .
It says on the bottle here that you can have two refills .
Yes , I need to refill it today .
Alright . I'm sorry , Miss . According to our file , this prescription has already been refilled twice .
I was worried about that . I couldn't remember if I had it refilled twice yet or not .
Well , it looks like you have . You will need to see your doctor to get a new prescription .
Listen . This is an emergency . I tried to call my doctor , but he is out of town . So I can't see him in time . I need this medicine . It is for skin condition . I've run out . Can you just refill it once more ?
I'm sorry , Miss . We can't do it . We must follow the prescription . And this prescription has run out .
But I need it . Please . Refill it for me just this once . I can go to the doctor around ten days from now . Then I'll have another prescription .
Miss , I understand your problem . But it is against the law for us to sell certain medicines without a prescription . It ' s the law . I can't do anything about it . We never sell medicine unless we have a proper prescription . Never .
But I have a prescription . I just need more of it .
A prescription must be valid . It cannot be an expired prescription . I'm sorry , Miss . It's the law . You will have to find another doctor who will prescribe this for you .
Oh , it will be so expensive ! I have a special medical plan , and I can only see one doctor . It will cost me a lot of money to see another doctor .
Miss , I just can't help you on this . I'm a pharmacist , not a doctor . And there are other customers I need to help now . I know it is frustrating when this happens . But there is nothing I can do about it . I'm sorry .
This is ridiculous ! In Taiwan , it is much easier to get medicine when I need it .
May I be of any help ?
Yes . Show me the sweaters , please .
What style ?
Well , could you bring me all the styles of pullovers ? I am not quite sure which one I will buy .
Would you please recommend some Chinese wine ?
Would you like to have a taste of Moutan ?
That's great ! What comes along with Moutan ?
Yes , you con order some typical Chinese dishes . For example , Roast Beijing Duck .
It sounds good .
Yes , it is the best of our hotel .
Really ? Let me have a try .
Nice and warm again , isn ' t it ?
Oh , it ' s lovely . Think of the nasty weather we had last week .
How are you these days ?
Fine , thank you . And you ?
This is today ' s schedule . At 8: 30AM , conference with the department managers . At 9 o ' clock , live for the workshop where you ' ll award prizes to the staff for preventatives .
That ' s great . What are the prizes ?
3000 RIB as bonus for each person .
To encourage the staff increases .
Ok . Next thing is laying the corner-stone for the new plant at 10 AM . At 12 AM , back here for lunch .
What about the afternoon ?
I'm going to take a nap .
You should unplug the phone .
That's a good idea .
Do you want me to wake you in an hour ?
No , thanks . Just let me sleep until I wake up .
I'll start dinner at 6:00 .
Okay . I think I'll be awake by then .
If not , your nose will wake you up .
You mean I will smell the food cooking ?
You might even dream about dinner .
I don't think I'm going to dream about anything . I'm really tired .
Well , you know what , don ' t do it , ' cause the minute you do , they lose all respect for you .
Well , it ' s not like that . We just e-mail , it ' s really nothing . On top of which I am definitely thinking about stopping because it ' s getting ...
Out of hand .
Confusing . But not , because it ' s nothing .
Where ' d you meet him ?
Oh , listen , I can ' t even remember . Ok , on my birthday , I wandered into over 30 rooms , for a joke , sort of and he was there , and we started chatting ...
About what ?
Oh , books , and music , how much we both love New York . Harmless , harmless , meaningless . Bouquets of sharpened pencils . Oh .
Excuse me ?
I ' m going to the beauty parlor . Do you want to come too ?
Sure . Let ' s go . What are you going to have done ?
I want to have a foot massage and haircut .
A foot massage sounds like a great idea . They are very relaxing . I ' d also like to have a mudpack on my face . It ' s supposed to help with your complexion .
Good idea . We should also pedicures and manicures .
This could become a very expensive trip to be beauty parlour !
I think it ' s a good idea to pamper yourself occasionally . Don ' t you agree ?
Oh , I agree . We both work hard and a little beauty treatment can relieve stress .
Maybe we should try a thai massage too .
What ' s special about a thai massage ?
That ' s when the masseuse walk on your back and massage you with her feet .
How was the party yesterday ?
Did you enjoy it ?
Oh , don't talk to me about yesterday ! It was the most awful evening I've ever had .
Why ! what happened ?
Well . John had promised to be my date , but he stood me up . I waited for a full hour in the cold wind .
So how long did you stay ?
You look pale today .
I didn't wear make-up this morning .
You should do sports to keep young .
Do you watch a lot of TV ?
Not really . I could take it or leave it .
Not me . I have to have my TV and watch whatever comes on .
Lucy , where are you going ?
I want to go to the supermarket .
Wait a few minutes and I'll go there with you .
Let's get a shopping cart .
Good idea
What are you going to buy ?
Let's check out the fruit section first .
OK . I'd like some oranges . But they don't look quite ripe yet .
Look , nice fresh cherries ! They are ripe and soft . I'll take some .
I'll take some , too .
Let's go to the snacks section . I want some chocolate and sweets .
OK . I'll go and buy some cakes .
Do you want to buy something else ?
Would you like to go skating with me this afternoon ?
Oh , I'd love to . But we're going to clean our dormitory . I can't be absent .
Maybe another time . People say that boys ' dormitories are in a mess , is it true ?
In fact , our dormitory is much worse than they can be described .
It's hard for me to imagine . How can you stand that ?
You'll get used to it gradually .
Oh my God , don't you know that such living environment is not healthy ?
Yes , we do . That's why we have a cleaning every three months .
Why have you decided to change jobs ?
I hope to change because my current job is not within my chosen field . Since my major was international banking , I really hope to work at a bank .
Then , why do you want to work for our bank since it's a new establishment in Shanghai ?
Because your bank is a new one , I think I'll be given more opportunities , and the working conditions and surroundings are so excellent here .
It certainly is . But the work is also hard here . You need to put a lot of hard hours on the job to succeed in this field .
I expect to work hard , madam .
Do you mind going on frequent business traps ?
Where is your native place ?
My native place is Shanghai , which is a very beautiful cosmopolitan city .
So are you a local ?
Hello , so how are we feeling today ?
Things are going well for me , Dr . Smith .
Am I correct in thinking that you are here for your annual physical ?
Yes , I am applying for new health insurance , and I need a physical examination to qualify .
Your basic physical exam will include lungs , heart , blood levels , and eyes , ears , and nose .
I ' Ve been having a little trouble breathing . Would you look into that , please ?
We can do an allergy test , and later I can send you for an asthma test .
I would appreciate it . When you give me a blood test , what are you looking for ?
I am going to check your cholesterol , blood sugar , and white blood cell count .
Peter , where are you going ?
I'm going to do some shopping .
Won't you watch TV ?
What's on TV tonight ? Is there a football match ?
The TV station will air the World Cup football match alive at 8: 30 .
Really ? Who will play ?
The Brazilian team versus the American team . Don't miss it .
That's cool . I'll watch it .
Who do you think will win ?
There is no doubt that the Brazilian team will win .
What is wrong with your face ?
My brother did it .
Why ?
Shall I take a picture of all of you ?
Ok , thank you . All you have to do is focus it .
All right . Say cheese !
Thank you very much .
You ' re welcome . I hope it'll come out well .
Hello everyone ! I ' m Rick Fields , and here with me is Bob Copeland .
Howdy folks , and welcome to today ' s game ! You know , Rick , today is a key game between Russia and Canada . As you know , the winner will move on to the finals .
That ' s right , and it looks like we ' re just about ready to start the match . The ref is calling the players for the face-off ... and here we go ! The Russians win possession and immediately set up their attack ! Federal gets checked hard into the boards !
Maurice Richard has the puck now , and passes it to the center . He shoots ! Wow what a save by the goalie !
Alright , the puck is back in play now . Pavel Bure is on a breakaway ! He is flying down the ice ! The defenders can ' t keep up ! Slap shot ! He scores .
The art critic from the daily chronicle doesn ' t think much of the max oreo exhibition . He says that the artwork is uninspiring and old fashioned .
Really ? I thought the exhibition showed that he had real talent . What did you think of it ?
I liked it . I didn ' t think his works were masterpieces , but the certainly weren ' t uninspiring , in my opinion .
I don ' t think I ' Ve ever read a good review of an exhibition by that critic . He doesn ' t seem to like anything . Which kinds of paintings do you prefer ?
I like landscapes and still life . You prefer abstract paintings , don ' t you ?
Yes , I do . I like painters who use rather than watercolors . The colors appear richer . What do you think ?
I agree . I prefer oils too . I collect landscapes , but I only have a small collection . You have a small collection of abstract art , don ' t you ?
Yes . Good artwork is very expensive nowadays . When I was in china , I bought some calligraphy by famous artists . You should come and see it sometime .
That would be nice . Can you read the characters ?
I know what the characters on the paintings mean . I think Chinese characters look very artistic . It ' s said that the way they are written can give insight into the artist ' s character .
I want a suit of workmanship and suitable for formal meetings . Would you recommend some brands ?
How about these famous brands ? Such as pierre Cardin ...
I'm afraid that's a bit beyond my means .
Mom , what were movies like when you were a kid ?
Everything about them was different , even the theaters .
I'm really interested . Tell me about them .
Well , where I grew up , we saw movies at a drive-in theater in our car with the whole family .
That's cool . I bet you could bring your own food .
We did . On hot days , we'd take a blanket and lay in the back of dad's old pickup to watch the movie .
Why don't we do that anymore ?
Hi , Tom ! This is Marry with Hans furniture store .
Yes , Marry ?
I just wanted to let you to know that we had decided to offer the sales position to someone else .
I see .
We considered you very carefully but the other candidate has more experience .
Maybe so . But I'm fast learner and I'm willing to work overtime to learn the business .
I'm sure you are .
You should have seen the line at the housing office . It took me an hour to make my dormitory deposit for next year . Have you made yours yet ?
No , I ' m not sure I ' m going to .
Why not ? There ' s not much time left . Are you short of cash ?
No , thanks . I am okay .
You ' d better hurry up if you wanna a dorm room next September ...
Well , actually , I am thinking about living off campus .
Do you have any idea how much that would cost ?
I know it would be more expensive . I think I could handle it though . It ' s that this dorm is so noisy that I can ' t get anything done .
You should study in the library the way I do . Think of the money you ' d save .
I ' Ve got to think it over some more .
What ' s the life expectancy in your country ?
I ' m not sure , but probably about 75 years . How about in your country ?
About 70 , I think . This newspaper article talks about the problems of an aging population . It ' s a problem that will soon affect most of the world .
I heard that the government might need to increase the retirement age , because otherwise there will not be enough workers to support the young and the elderly .
Perhaps we need to have more babies ! Tina gave birth to a baby boy yesterday .
Did she ? That ' s great . However , if we have too many children , that will have a bad effect on the enviroment .
How ' s your son these days ?
Oh , he ' s fine . Kids seem to grow up very quickly nowadays .
He ' ll be a teenager before you know it ! Teenagers are often rebellious ! When do you think it is a good age to have a child ?
I had mine when I was 24 . that ' s a little young . I ' d suggest you wait until you are in your late twenties . , or even in your early thirties if you have a good career .
Yes , I think you ' re right . I ' m thinking about having a child , but not just yet .
Is there a big generation gap between parents and their children in you country ?
Yes , there is . Teenagers do not want to live traditional lives . They want to go out , have fun , and explore the world . They want to develop their own view of life . Parents usually try to discourage them , but they don ' t often succeed .
Parents usually give their children more freedom in my country . Sometimes they give them too much freedom .
What do you think this flat ?
It's not really all that good . The bedroom is a little small for us .
Small ? But it should be enough for our needs , I think .
But there's no hot water after 10 at night . Sometimes I like to have a hot shower before bed , especially in the winter , it feels good .
That's true , but I love the living room , it's huge and filled with sunshine .
True , and I like the kitchen . It ' s new and well equipped .
It has a great balcony with an incredible view of the park .
You are right . The view is spectacular . But that bedroom is so small . We ' d never be able to fit all of our stuff in there .
May be we could get some new furniture , better stuff .
Housekeeping . May I help you ?
Yes . This is room 804 . I can't find my coat . I was wondering if it's in the lost and found .
I can check for you . Could you describe the coat ?
It's a light blue coat . It's got a hood and a big silver zipper .
When was the last time you saw it ?
Last night . I think I may have left it in the lobby bar .
OK . I ' ll check the lost and found and with the bar manager . We'll do our best to find it .
What problems will exporters face in moving to the foreign market ?
An exporter needs to know the social characteristics of people he is dealing with .
Like what ?
What do they like or dislike . What languages do they speak , what religions do they follow .
Reasonable .
Especially he needs to know their behavior , their habits , their way of life and the things they are used to .
Hi , Mr . Smith . I ' m Dr . Hawkins . Why are you here today ?
I thought it would be a good idea to get a check-up .
Yes , well you haven ' t had one for ... five years . You should have one every year .
I know . I figure as long as there ' s nothing wrong , why go see the doctor ?
Well , the best way to avoid serious illnesses is to find out about them early . So , try to come at least once a year for your own good .
O . K .
Let me see here . Your eyes and ears look fine . Take a deep breath , please . Do you smoke , Mr . Smith ?
Yes .
Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer and heart disease , you know . You really should quit .
I ' Ve tried a hundred times , but I just can ' t seem to kick the habit .
Well , we have classes and some medications that might help . I ' ll give you more information before you leave .
Peter , wash your hands first , and then have some dessert .
Mom , can I have some ice cream ?
Not today , Honey . Don't eat too much ice cream .
Mom , can I have one more piece of cake ?
We're thinking of ordering fifty refrigerators . But , there's one problem .
What's that ? I thought our negotiation went very well .
The only problem is the price . It's not possible for us to make any sales at this price .
$ 1500 is almost the lowest price we can offer .
I'm afraid I can't agree with you there . Your price is much higher than other companies .
You get what you pay for , considering the high quality , our price is very reasonable .
I don't deny that the refrigerator is of top quality . If you could go a little lower , we'll place the order right away .
Sorry , I can't give you an immediate answer for this problem , let me talk to our general manager first .
Hi , Francis .
Oh , Mike . How are you doing ?
Not bad . It seems you are super yogurt lover . You have so many in your cart .
Well , I prefer yogurt to all the other drinks . Have you ever tried a kind of yogurt with old milk in it ? It tastes great and very healthy too .
Oh , I haven ' t noticed that before . Maybe I will try next time .
Why don ' t you go ahead of me ? I have more items than you .
Thank you . In fact , I am in a hurry . My wife is waiting for me at the parking lot .
You ' re welcome . It was good seeing you again .
Are you going to eat anything with your sandwich ?
I may get some fruit .
Oh really , what kind of fruit do you like ?
I tend to only eat grapes and apples .
What kind of apples do you prefer ?
I've always liked green apples .
I don't really like green apples that much .
Why do you say that ?
I think they are too sour .
You'd rather eat a red apple ?
Don't you like red apples ?
How do you dispose of the waste in your factory ?
We try to recycle as much as we can .
What about the rest ? How do you get rid of it ?
We have to send it to landfill . It's very expensive because the government recently introduced a landfill tax so we're planning to build a new incineration plant next year to burn our waste .
But doesn't incineration produce carbon monoxide ?
Hey , Daniel , how's it going ?
Hey , Daddy , today I had really a fantastic history class .
Wow , it's so strange for you to say things like that . What had happened ?
We've learnt the story of Zheg He Sailing to West Ocean . He is a real great navigator .
Did your teacher tell you the route he took ?
Yeah , he , with his fleet , came across the Indian Ocean , and arrived at the east coast of Africa .
Great , do you still remember when he started his voyage ?
Of course , that is from 1405 to 1433 , which is in Ming dynasty .
Good , by the way , do you finish reading the book Robinson Crusoe I've bought for you ?
Not yet , you know I have a lot of homework to do .
You should speed up , because the story of Robinson can give you a better understanding about what you learned today .
OK , great Daddy , after supper , I'll embark on it .
That's my boy ! Wait , Daniel , when is Pirates of the Caribbean on ?
Is it about Captain Jack Sparrow , who wants to find the treasure on the sea ?
Exactly , now , tell me the time .
Uh ... that's Greek to me .
That means they have tapered legs .
Well , mine are baggy . They're the kind of pants you can lounge around in .
Mine are , too .
So maybe we shouldn't go out after all .
I can ' t believe my English teacher is making me read pride and prejudice !
Why not ! It ' s a classic . In fact , it ' s one of my favorite novels .
But it ' s so old .
Don ' t judge a book by its cover . Do you Kwon what it ' s about ?
No , not at all .
First of all , it ' s a romance novel , set in the early 19th century .
I didn ' t realize it was a romance novel . What ' s the main storyline ?
It ' s basically about a father who tried to marry off one of his five girls .
Why does he want to do that ?
Since he doesn ' t have a son , he hopes that one of the girls will marry a wealthy man . That way , all of his daughters will be cared for .
Won ' t they get his inheritance ?
No , that ' s the problem . Though they are well-off , once he dies , his house will go to his cousin . So , when he dies , the girls will have nothing .
I see . This sounds interesting ! Maybe my teacher isn ' t so horrible after all .
So , are you going to read the novel or watch the movie ?
There ' s movie ? My teacher didn ' t tell me that !
That ' s probably because she wants you to read the book first .
It would take a lot less time ...
How about this . When you finish the book . I ' ll get the movie and watch it with you .
Broadway Mall is having a big sale this weekend . You wanna go ?
Don't feel like it . I'm broke .
Well , we can still do some window shopping , can't we ?
Just look around ? Ah , that's boring .
I told you that she is no fool .
I know she is quite an article , but I was not sure of her ability to cope with a boss .
She cannot get in Dutch with him . He is her boss , you know .
The Spring Festival is drawing close . By then we will have five days off . I am expecting it .
Can you tell me something about the Spring Festival ?
Just like you celebrate Christmas , we celebrate our lunar New Year's Day , the Spring Festival . It is a time for the family members and relatives to have a get-together .
Christmas is also a special time for us to have the family reunion and to express our best wishes to those we love and those who love us in the coming new year .
Christmas has more religious nature , while our Spring Festival is a more traditional holiday . On the New Year's Eve , we have a big dinner called ' Family Reunion Dinner ' . One of the traditional food to eat at the dinner is dumplings . After that , the adults usually sit chatting , watching TV , or playing cards .
What are the children doing ?
They usually go outside to play firecrackers and fireworks .
I heard one of the purposes to do it is to frighten the devils so they will not come to do any harm to people in the next year .
Perhaps it is like what people told you . At 24 hours midnight , the time when the New Year really comes , we exchange ' Happy New Year ' to each other , and parents and grandparents will take out small packages wrapped with red paper , in them are some what we call ' Lucky Money .
Who will get the money ?
I know I'm a blabbermouth , but what do you think she should do , John ?
Honey , we're in the museum now . We're not here to discuss your coworker's love life . We're here to enjoy the great paintings by Picasso !
I know ! But it's really important to her ! Her whole life could be ruined by this man !
You're making a federal case out of it . One unhealthy love affair can't ruin anything . It could even make your life more interesting .
Are you serious , John ?
Excuse me , sir . Could you spare a minute ?
Uh , yes .
Do you go to work by train every day ?
Yes . I commute five days a week by train .
And would you mind telling us what you think of the rail service ?
It ' s really very good .
Why do you say that ?
Well , trains are frequent and come on time .
Which train do you catch in the evening ?
I usually take the 5 thirty home .
And can you get a seat ?
No , I usually have to stand .
Would you agree that the service is fast ?
What did you say ?
What can I do for you ?
Yes . There is something wrong with my watch . It stopped several hours ago .
Let me have a look . Oh , the watch ' s battery is worn down .
How much is a battery ?
$ 50 .
How long will it last ?
About 2 years .
Hi ! Is that the new laptop you brought last week ? It looks very nice .
Yes , it is . Thanks . I ' m just surfing on the internet .
Here ? In this cafe ? How can you do that ?
This cafe offers a wireless internet connection . That means I can get on the net for free while I ' m here . Of course , I have to buy a cup of coffee !
That ' s great . Can you do it anywhere ?
No . you can only do it when the cafe offers a wireless connection . There are only about 10 or 12 places that offer it in this city .
So , what programs do you have on your laptop ?
I ' Ve got all the usual ones for word processing and then I have a few for creating and editing photographs .
I know you are keen on photography . It ' s very useful for you to be able to download photos from your digital camera . Then you attach the picture files to emails and send them to anyone , anywhere , at anytime !
What's the weather like in your city ?
In the summer it gets very hot . the temperature is often between 37 and 40 centigrade . when it is hot we often get rains . the winters are drier .
The summer temperature usually often reaches about 20 or25 in my city . the rain falls mostly in the winter . and we often get snow .
What are the temperatures in winter ? in my city it is about 15 or 20 degrees .
In winter temperature often falls to zero at night temperature can be below that . the streets are often icing in the morning . with high such temperatures you must get some thunderstorms .
Yeah , we do . in the middle of summer there can be thunderstorms every day usually in the afternoon . i heard your city has a lot of fog , is that true ?
We do have a few foggy days in winter . but i would not say we have a lot of fogs . the sky are usually clearly over your city , are they ?
Yes , they are . like i said we have thunderstorms . but each one usually only last a few hours . then the skys are clear again .
Have you ever had snow in your city ?
My grandmother said there was snow once when she was a child . but my parents and i only see it outside of our city .
The river in my city sometime freeze over . people go ice-skating on it . on summer people go boating on the river . but few people go swimming because it is not very clean .
What are you doing tomorrow ?
Nothing really .
Let's watch a movie or something .
What's on these days ?
I think they're playing Lord of the Rings
That sounds pretty good . Let's watch that .
Where should we meet ?
How about at the subway entrance .
Why aren't you doing your homework ?
I'll do it later , Dad . I must prepare the concert on Saturday .
Oh , is it ? You'll be making records next , will you ?
We hope so .
You'd better get on with your homework ! You can practice on Sunday .
Oh dad . You don't understand at all .
I certainly could . You ' ll get exams next month .
I don't need it to play the guitar .
Oh , don't you ? God save me !
Honey , would you marry me ?
I want to think about it for some time .
Please , honey , I have made proposals to you fifteen times .
I know . But your way doesn't touch my heart .
Oh , god , please tell me how .
I can't tell you .
OK , I want you to be happy when we are together , and when you are sad , I would always stay with you .
When I am angry and want to beat someone , you stand there and let me do what I want . Would you ?
Yes , I would . Thanks for being in my life .
Hi , Steven ! What do you like to do during the weekend ?
I love swimming and cycling . On Saturday morning I usually ride my bike around the city or the country road for almost two hours .
That ' s great ! I think they do you a lot of good .
Sure , they do .
But why do you choose cycling at first ?
Because it is convenient and good for environmental protection .
You are really a good citizen .
Do you know something about Mount Tai ?
Yes . But not too much . It is considered as the head of five sacred mountains in China .
Five sacred mountains ? Why people call them so ?
Because in history , the Chinese emperors used to climb onto these mountains and pay tribute to their ancestors and pray for good harvest and prosperity for the whole nation .
Got it . Can we see any things left by them ?
Definitely . There are many wall paintings and inscriptions on the huge rocks on the mountain .
I want to see them . How can I go there ?
Way to go ! It seems beautiful and very delicious .
You didn't show up to my performance last night ! Some kind of friend you are !
Give me a chance to explain . I was no my way and I had an accident .
Sure . You look like you're all black and blue .
I am fine . In fact , I don't have a scratch on me or my vehicle . But the other guy is in critical condition .
You're serious ?
Yes , I'm serious . I'm really sorry about missing your concert .
I guess I misjudged you . I hope you can forgive me .
Is anybody here ?
Coming . What do you want today ?
Quite a lot . I need one pound of potatoes , three pints of milk , a dozen eggs and one pound of tomatoes .
Our fruit is very fresh today . Do you want some ?
How much are the lemons ?
Three for ten cents .
Give me a dozen lemons .
Anything else ?
No , thanks . How much in total ?
Could you help me prepare for my presentation on Friday ?
I would love to help you prepare for your presentation .
I hate to ask you to do something like that .
This will not interfere with my work . I promise you that .
When could we get together ?
I could easily give you some time tomorrow night .
Would you like to meet me at the coffee house next door ?
Yes , and could you write down anything you might be having trouble with ?
I'll come prepared .
How'd you like to go on a bungee jump this weekend ?
I'm not sure . I promised to help my sister move Saturday .
How about Sunday , then ? We could start in the morning .
I might be able to do that . But I don't think I can do it well .
Don't worry . It is a test of physical endurance , intelligence . Just to finish it is considered a victory for most .
May I help you ?
I ' m returning a book .
Do you need anything else ?
I also need to check out this video .
This is all you want to check out ?
Just the video .
I ' m going to need your library card .
I have it right here .
You ' ll need to take care of the video .
I will .
We will fine you if you damage it .
What do you think of the test ?
Rather difficult . How about you ?
It wasn't too bad . Were you nervous ?
Rather . I'm afraid I didn't do very well .
Oh , I wouldn't worry about it .
That's because you did well .
No , I wouldn't worry about you .
Why ?
Tom , is Jenny crying ?
Can you take he away from me ?
I ' m just coming for that .
She kept on bothering me .
She ' s your sister . What she asked was only duck soup for you . Why can ' t you be good to her ?
What's special for today ?
Sweet and sour pro chops , Madam .
We'll have it for two people .
Do you have any hobbies ?
Yes . I like gardening .
Oh , that's interesting . Do you have a garden ?
Yes , follow me . Here it is .
Your garden is really lovely .
Thank you .
Do you take care of them everyday ?
Yes , I do .
Don't you feel dull ?
I'd like to remit 5000 dollars to my friend .
Please show me your ID card and tell me the receiver's address .
Room 20 , Suzie Building , Beijing Road , Shenzhen , China .
Good coming . room service . What can I do for you ?
I'd like a hamburger and a cup of coffee . My room number is 402 .
OK . sir . We will bring it to you as soon as possible .
you look better today . How did your test go ?
much better than it did yesterday .
did you pass ?
I not only passed my test , but I aced it ! I'm so happy !
you should be . You worked really hard last night preparing for it .
thanks for helping me with it . If you hadn't encouraged me to do my best , I wouldn't have ever been able to pass .
you don't have to thank me . It's just a part of my job as your counsellor .
did you always do well at school ?
no , in fact , I was terrible at taking exams .
really ?
sure , but my teachers always encouraged me to do the best that I could and that helped me a lot . When are your final exams ?
I'll get my finals in two months .
when do you plan on studying for those exams ?
most students just cram the night forehead .
do you think that's a good idea ?
no , I think I should study a little bit at a time , starting a few weeks before the exam .
that sounds like a good idea . What are you going to do if you have any questions while you're studying ?
I'll go and talk to my professor or a learning support assistant .
It ' s very kind of you to invite me to dinner .
Please sit down and make yourself at home . Please don ' t stand on ceremony .
This dish is really delicious .
I ' m glad that you like it . This is only the first time that I made it .
You ' re great . Could you say it in Chinese ?
David , why don't you clean your room ?
I am not in the mood .
Why are you feeling depress ?
I was told my girlfriend was speaking ill of me . It's a real letdown .
I don't think she would do such a thing .
But she did and it made me disappointed .
Oh , cheer up ! A girlfriend is not everything .
But she means a lot to me .
Then forgive her mistake .
What should I do if I notice a fire ?
Raise the alarm by breaking the glass of the nearest fire alarm . Call Security , say ' Fire ' and give your name and exact location . At night you should phone the fire service from the nearest telephone .
Should I try to put the fire out ?
This is Action 5 News reporter Sarah O ' Connell reporting live from Washington , D . C . where a protest has broken out . Thousands of angry citizens are protesting against the proposed bailout of the auto manufacturing industry ! Sir , sir , Sarah O ' Connell , Action 5 news . Can you tell us what ' happening ?
Yeah , yeah , we ' re here because we feel this is an injustice ! The financial irresponsibility of big business has to stop ! We ' re there to show the government that we don ' t like the way that they ' re spending our tax dollars !
Sir but what exactly is making everyone so angry ?
It ' s an absolute outrage , Sarah , the US government wants to give 25 billion dollars of taxpayers ' money to the auto industry . These are companies that have been mismanaged and are now nearly bankrupt .
I see . But , many supporters of the bailout argue that it could help save the jobs of millions of hardworking Americans .
That maybe true , and I for one don ' t want to see anyone lose their job , but how can these Ces ask for a bailout when they ' re making millions of dollars ? And then , they have the nerve to fly to Washington in private jets ! This costs hundreds of thousands of dollars ! And they ' re asking for money ! That is just not right !
Would you like a piece of birthday cake ?
No , thanks , I'll pass . It looks very tempting though .
I thought strawberry cake with cream cheese frosting was your favorite ?
It is . I'm on a diet and strawberry cream cheese cake is not on it .
A diet ? What for ? You are in great shape .
I went to the doctor the other day . My cholesterol is up .
Oooo . This sounds serious .
Passport and disembarkation card , please .
Here you are .
What is your purpose of visiting ?
Sightseeing .
How long are you staying here ?
Nine days .
I've booked an air ticket to Venice .
How long will you be there ?
I'd like to stay there for a week .
So you'll have a tour of the famous city .
What ' s up ? You don ' t look too good .
Yeah , my head hurts , that ' s all . I ' Ve been in physics class all day . It ' s killer !
I liked physics . It ' s all math , really . arcs , curves , velocity , cool stuff .
Yeah , yeah , but today ' s lesson was all about the creation of the universe .
A physics class about the creation of the universe ? That ' s some pretty unscientific language there . Sounds more religious to me .
It ' s all religion . Take the theory of the Big Bang . How is it possible that all of the stuff in the universe comes from an explosion ? That ' s no better than Atlas carrying the globe on his back or African myths about turtles and stuff .
Turtles ? Whatever ... Look , all that ' s required for the creation of matter an imbalance of particles and anti-particles . At least , that ' s what the math says .
Math , sheath . What ' s the evidence ?
There is evidence ! You know Edwin Hubble ? He ' s the guy who in the early twentieth century was the first scientist to measure the drift of matter in the universe , thus advancing notions of an expanding universe . What would it be expanding from ? Well , the Big Bang ... DUH !
Anyway , it ' s just a theory . Why do people go around touting theories ? Where ' s the scientific rigor in that ?
Let's do something really nice for our family this Christmas .
What did you have in mind ?
I don't know yet .
I just know I want to get out of the mindless gift trap .
I know what you mean .
I want to give a gift that is really meaningful .
Or do something that shows we have spent time thinking about them .
Hello , is there anything I can do for you ?
Yes , I want to a room for tomorrow .
Single or double ?
A single one with a private bath .
Would you like to have your room on the top floor ?
You should save some money on parking here .
Yeah , I don ' t have to pay for a space on the street .
Really ? How long did it take you to find a spot yesterday ?
Well , last night it took me half an hour to find a spot when I came home from work .
You get home late , don ' t you ?
Yeah , around seven . Most of the street parking is gone by then .
Ah , well . You can ' t have everything .
How should we commemorate the centenary of the founding of the university ? We have been given quite a large budget to pay for some events .
We should certainly hold a big party for the professors and students . We could have a firework display .
Do you think that we should invite alumni and former professors ?
If we do , too many people might attend . Perhaps we should invited all of them , but make a small charge to attend .
Good idea . We should also hold a series of presentations . We could have presentations on the history of the university , the courses we offer , and our links with other universities .
Good idea ! I think we could also have presentations by former students on how their experience here helped them in their lives .
We could have another on the successes of graduates from here .
I think that we could also produce some merchandise for the centenary-you know , T-shirts , mugs , plates , pens , and things like that .
That ' s an excellent idea . Hopefully , we would be able to make a profit ! A few professors and students are writing a book on the history of the university .
I ' m looking forward to reading that . We could have book signings by famous professors an alumni .
A group of students from the art and music faculty are producing a short film .
Are you satisfied with the dishes ?
Great , the lamb stew tastes incredible .
I like it , too . I like the fish especially . It's so fresh , and the flavoury is kind of like for a fresh water fish .
Yes , the food here deserves its reputation . Chinese food is one of my favorites .
If you like , I'll take you to a new restaurant next time , I just heard about it from my friend , and he was just raving about it . It's such a great Sichuan cuisine . Would you like to try that ?
Sure , I'd love to . I heard Sichuan cuisine is very hot , I think I definitely love it .
Great , I love hot food too .
Well , let's finish this great dinner first .
Fred , we're gonna have a meeting after half an hour . Have you got it ?
Is that true ? I can't believe it . There are always some meetings in this company .
Hush ! The wall has ears , you know .
But , my overwork has not done yet . And it is driving me crazy .
My boy . I give you my sympathy to you . However , this meeting is said to be extremely important , so we have to attend it .
What's the meeting for ?
It is to give honors and promotions to some colleagues who made outstanding performance last year .
Excuse me , but can you tell me the way to the Today Mall ?
Yes , go down the fifth street . You won't miss it .
How long will it take me to get there ?
It's only about 10 minutes ' walk .
You'll love this . It's a chick drink .
What's that supposed to mean -- that it's weak ?
Well , that too . I mean that it's kind of sweet . See if you can guess what's in it .
Mmm ! Beer , tequila , and ... lime !
Not bad . You really know your booze ... So I guess you know what's in the salsa , too ?
Fresh tomatoes , green and white onions ...
Hello , Does my room have internet access ?
Yes , it does , sir .
How do I use it ?
First connect your laptop to the cable in the desk . Then open up your web browser .
Ok .
You can buy credit on the hotel website or at the business centre .
Do you still see the people we went to school with ?
I did for a while , I suppose , until I left university , but after that not really .
Yeah , I've lost touch with most people as well , but I still see Rose occasionally .
Oh yes , how's she getting on ?
OK , I suppose , but she's had a rough time in the last few years , She got divorced .
What , from Peter ?
Where's your hometown ?
What's going on ?
Nothing really , you ?
I'm throwing a party next Saturday .
Is that right ?
Yeah , are you going to come ?
I'm sorry , I can't .
Why not ?
I don't really want to .
Well , why don't you ?
I hate going to parties .
Well , that's okay .
Happy birthday , Lillian . Here's a little present I bought for you .
How do you like the play ?
It is very dull , and the production isn't very satisfactory , either .
You're absolutely right . I think the acting could be better .
To be fair , both the costumes and scenery are marvelous .
Maybe you're right . But I really don't like it .
Well , we'd better go to a musical comedy next time . I think the one we saw last month was very good .
Yes , they had constant changes of scene , and I love variety .
Do you have these shoes in a size 7 ?
How do you want your eggs , Mary ? Cindy likes hers scrambled .
Sunny-side up , please .
The toaster is over there on the kitchen counter . Help yourself .
What kind of bread do we have ?
White and whole-wheat .
I think I'll have two slices of whole wheat .
Can you go wake up Cindy for me ?
Sure .
I really hate to say this , but don't go away mad , just go away .
I knew this would happen some day .
Then , why didn't you try to prevent it in the beginning ?
Well . It's not all my fault , Anna . You are responsible , too .
I don't want to argue anymore . Please get out of my life !
I think we can still talk .
No way ! Please don't follow me around .
Talk it easy , Anna . You really don't hate me . do you ?
I'm the Mortgage Advisor at this branch . You wanted a chat about housing loans ?
Yes , I've found a wonderful property I wish to buy . Unfortunately , I just don't have access to the cash .
I see . It's a problem most of us face . May I ask what the purchase price is ?
It's 600,000 RIB . But I've already put down 200,000 RIB , which is my absolute limit , so I'm looking for a loan of 400,000 RIB .
So , you've already made a large initial deposit ? That is good news . OK , let's have a look at your credit details and get this started .
I already have an account with you , so it should be pretty straight forward .
Hey Bobby . What's going on ?
Just taking a smoke break .
I forgot my cigarette today . Do you have another one ?
Sure . Here you go .
Thanks .
I didn't know you smoked .
Really ? I've been smoking for over a year now .
Oh . You're new to smoking still . I've been smoking for 7 years .
You ever tried to quit ?
Many times . I'm really addicted . It's harder to stop than you think .
Yeah . I tried to quit last month , and I thought it was going to be easy , but it turns out that I'm still smoking .
I highly recommend you quit soon . The longer you smoke , the harder it becomes to quit .
I think you're right . Aright . Gotta go to class . Thanks for the cigarette . I'll talk to you later .
Steven , what are you thinking about ?
Oh , you know , tomorrow is Vicky's birthday . I am thinking what gift to give her .
That's easy . A girl at her age must like beautiful ornaments . How about a hair pin ?
It's a bad idea . Vicky has short hair .
Well , what about a brooch ?
Only old women like that .
Maybe you should ask her what she wants for her birthday .
Nick , it's very nice of you to see me off .
You're welcome . Did you have a good time on this vacation ?
Very well . If I leave I'll miss you .
Me too . Please write to me as soon as you get Boston .
I'm sure and I remembered your phone number . I'll call you .
OK , they begin to register .
It's time I left .
You look pale , Paul . What's wrong ?
I've got a headache .
I'm sorry to hear that . Anything I can do for you ?
How is everything going with your girlfriend ?
Didn ' t I tell you ? It ' s over !
Oh , I am sorry to hear that . I did ' t know that you had split up . What happened ?
It was a few things . The first thing that happened was that we were supposed to go out for a romantic dinner for our one year anniversary , but she stood me up !
Really ! Did she tell you why she didn ' t show up ?
No , but I ended up finding out later that night when I saw her with another man at a club near my home !
What was she thinking ? Did you confront her about it when you saw her ?
I wanted to , but I knew that if I spoke to her , I'd just blow up at her , so I decided to just go home . I called her later that night , but she didn't answer the phone .
I can ' t believe she would do that to you . It ' s so dishonest---and rude !
I know . I still haven ' t heard from her . The good thing is that I ' m so angry with her that I don ' t feel sad about not having her around .
I bet you she regrets what she ' s done . You were such a good catch ! She really lost out , didn ' t she ?
I guess so . It would be nice to know why she did this though .
Alice , it really was great . I think it was the most interesting thing here . You really should go in .
No , I don't want to .
Really . The special effects are fantastic . You shouldn't be scared . You would really enjoy it .
Sam , I never like Haunted Houses . When I was a kid , I didn't like them . when I was in high school , I didn't like them . when I was in college , I didn't like them . So why should I like them now ?
But this is maybe one of the best Haunted Houses in North America ! It's different .
Why don't we go to the Epcot Center instead ? They have displays from many cultures around the world .
I saw that in the guide . It looks like they have different restaurants and different kinds of architecture . Do you want to go ?
Yes . That is something I will enjoy .
Alright , let's go then . How many tickets do we have left ?
We still have most of the tickets we bought . We can go on a lot of different rides if you like .
I was only interested in the Haunted House and the roller coaster rides . The other rides are for kids .
Let's start walking to the Epcot Center then . According to this map , it is up this pathway here .
Come on , Tara . Let ' s go up to the window and buy two tickets . The movie is starting in a few minutes .
We can ' t break into the line . Don ' t be so impatient . We ' ll be at the front of the line soon .
Two tickets , please . How much are they ?
Oh no , Ari . I didn ' t mean for you to pay for me when I invited you to go tonight . Let ' s go Dutch . I ' ll pay my own way . I insist .
I ' m looking forward to this film . I read a good review of it in this morning ' s newspaper .
Me , too . It will be great to see something light and funny for a change . I ' m tired of heavy drama .
Are these seats okay ?
Both our countries are quite small . How would you describe the landscape in your country ?
My country is well know for being very flat . There are some hills in the southeast of the country .
Is it really completely flat ?
Pretty much . The land rises and falls only a few meters . The southeast , the hills rise to a height of a few hundred meters . There are mountains over 1000 meters high in your country .
Yes , there are . They are not very big compared with the mountains in other countries .
The coast of your country is very varied . The coast of my country is just made up of sandy beaches .
That doesn ' t sound too bad . Great for sunbathing ! The coast of my country changes even within a few kilometers . There are cliffs , then sandy beaches . Then rocks . There are lots of caves in the cliffs .
There are many lakes and rivers in your country too . We also have many rivers , but only a few lakes .
Not a single email until now ? it's already twelve o'clock . I can't believe it !
Can't bear it , right ? I've been there before . I'll feel uncomfortable if no one calls me or sends me text messages , like there is something missing .
Yeah , that's right . If no one sends me text messages , I'll go crazy .
Actually , this is a kind of addiction called ' infomania ' or ' information overload ' .
Addiction ? checking emails and text messages often can be called an addiction ? no way !
Yes , it is . Do you consider a frequent check of your in-coming emails to be an integral part of your working day ?
Absolutely .
Do you have your cell phone with you wherever you go and check text messages and phone calls from time to time ?
Yeah , it's a must . Otherwise , I may miss important phone calls and text messages .
Do you open all your IM tools whenever you're using a computer ?
Yes . MSN , QQ , Skype , Google Talk , Ali wangwang , everything , so that I'll be in touch with all friends and relatives .
Good evening , sir , and welcome to Chez Attitude .
We have a dinner reservation for four at 7:00 under the name of Foster .
Yes , Mr . Foster , if you would please be seated over in the waiting area , our hostess will be with you in a moment .
Thank you . Would it be OK if we have a cocktail while we are waiting ?
Of course , I will tell her .
I would really prefer an outside table . Would that be possible ?
Sure , if you would like one of those tables , I could seat you right away .
Sure , that would be great ! Thank you !
Here are your menus and the wine menu , and would you like to order your drinks now ?
Yes , I would like a vodka gimlet , please .
Sure , no problem , sir .
My latte looks like that shoe polish we did an ad for last month .
And this espresso looks like ... oil !
It still tastes fine , though .
These days , I can't think of anything but motor oil . Even coffee makes me think of it .
how's your job search going ?
I don't know . I only started looking for a job a few days ago .
I see . Have you found anything that you're interested in ?
I've only found a few openings in my field .
what kind of job are you looking for ?
I'm trying to find a job in sound engineering .
there's not a very high demand for that kind of job , is there ?
unfortunately not . If I can't find anything in the field , then I could also work in the tourism field .
that's a good idea . You have plenty of experience in the tourism industry , don't you ?
yes .
by the way , I saw a job in the paper this morning that you might be interested in .
really ? what is it ?
it's a job at a recruitment agency .
that's interesting . Do you think they'd hire me ?
well , you have plenty of experience job hunting . I think you'd be the perfect person for the job !
that's true . I might as well call them up and see if I can get an interview . Do you have the details ?
What's new ?
Why you are so crazy about Beijing Opera ? It's so boring .
But I think it's fantastic and charming . Well , you have your opinion and I have mine .
Maybe you're right . But I just still can't understand ...
I'd like to open an account please .
Would you like a savings or a chequing account ?
Savings , please .
What ? Your golden watch is lost ?
Yeah . I just can't find it anywhere .
It's an open book that it was stolen by the man in black .
Waitress ! My bill for today's lunch , please .
OK , sir .
How much do I owe ?
190 yuan .
Here is 200 yuan . The charge is for you .
Thank you . Welcome to call again . Goodbye .
This man is your fiance , Dolly ?
Yeah , how do you like him ?
He's handsome .
Can you give me a touch of his character ?
Hello , I've got a letter here that I'd like to post .
Yes , where's it to , madam ?
Well , the letter is going to a friend of mine in America and it's quite urgent . It really needs to be posted today , so here you are .
You want to send it airmail , madam ?
I went bungee jumping yesterday .
How do I buy my textbooks ?
Do you have your book list for your class ?
Yes , I have my list .
Fine . Once you have it , you can go to the bookstore . Do you know where that is ?
Yes , I know where the bookstore is .
OK , so once you pass the gym , it's the first door on your left . Do you know you can also sell your used textbooks there ?
No , I didn't know I could do that .
You just take them with you and trade them with the used textbook man just outside the door . Do you think you will be going there today ?
Yes , I am going today .
Well , if you decide to go , I could meet you over there at 1
Yes , thank you . That would be great .
Mr Hughes ? Do you have a minute ? I would like to discuss something with you .
What can I do for you ?
I was wondering , I have heard many of my co-wokers that your knowledge and experience in international markets is phenomenal . Also , I ' Ve heard the rumor that you speak fluent Japanese . Is that right ?
Yes , that ' s right . I do speak decent Japanese .
Right now I ' m working on a product launch project to open up our Asian market . We have several upcoming events to take place for the Japanese cities . We ' ll be heading to Tokyo next month to get things started . What I would like to talk to you about is joining our team to help bring this project to completion .
Exactly what kind of help did you have in mind ?
We aer looking for someone who is familiar with the market and cultural issues to act as an advisor to our marketing staff . We would like to set up a partnership , where we can help each other .
So if I can help you as a consultant , what is in for me ?
Are you ready to order , sir ?
Yeah . I have a fancy for some wine tonight . Can you recommend something for me ?
Our red wine is very famous . I'd suggest you try that .
All right . What kind of red wine do you serve ?
Here are a variety of red wines for you to choose . You can have a taste then make your decision then . Here is the wine menu .
The dry red wine looks quite good . I'd like to try this one .
Then do you like any cheese to go with it ?
Why ? Do I have to order that ?
Oh , no . But cheese is the best thing to go with red wine . And we have really fresh cheese which will be free if you order red wine . Here are the pictures . Pick out something you like .
That's really nice . I'd like this one . It looks very attractive .
What would you like for appetizer and dinner ?
Croissant for appetizer and two beef steaks for dinner .
How do you want your steaks , rare , medium or well-done ?
Medium , please ?
Anything for dessert ?
Sure . We'd like to have Black Forest Cake for dessert .
Come in , please .
Good morning , Mrs Smith .
Good morning . You are Mr . Sun , aren't you ? Take a seat , please .
Yes , thank you .
I've noticed from your resume that you majored in accounting at Peking University . Will you please tell me something about your related courses ?
In the first academic year we learned Principles of Accounting , and in the following years we learned Cost Accounting , Commercial Accounting , Industrial Accounting , and Management Accounting .
Have you taken Accounting for Decision-Making and Control ?
No , we haven't taken such a course , but we have taken a more specialized course for decision making , by the name of Forecasting and Decision-Making .
From your school report card , I can see you did well in every course . But our advertisement says we need an accountant with practical work experience .
I forgot to include my experience as an accountant in my resume . In fact , I took a part-time job as an accountant at the Atlantic Trading Company during my second and third school year . I worked three evenings a week there and I did quite well . Here is the recommendation .
You can speak English fluently but I wonder if you can deal with bookkeeping and accounting in English .
No problem . The professional English course is just English for Accounting . Moreover , as you know , the Atlantic Trading Company is a Sino-Australian joint venture . When I served part-time there , I became well acquainted with accounting operated in English .
That sounds fine . Why did you choose to apply to our company ?
I have a relative working as a manager in your manufacturing department . Her name is Lilling . She told me a lot about your company and I became quite interested . I believe I can have a promising career with the development of this company .
Do you know something about the payment we give to our employees ?
No , can you tell me about it ?
Of course . As for an entry-level accountant , we pay ¥ 1,500 a month in the first half year . We have a grading system to evaluate your work . If you have made progress , we will certainly raise your salary . For beginners with a CPA certificate , they can earn at least ¥ 2 , 000 a month .
I have passed the five courses required by the Chinese CPA Association , but the certificate won't come to hand until next month . How about that ?
I hope you can show me your CPA certificate before we reach a decision by the end of July .
Thank you , Mrs Smith . It is really a pleasure talking with you .
The same for me . We'll keep in touch with you .
Jim , how was your weekend ?
I went to the beach with my friends and had a barbecue there .
That sounds like a lot of fun . Did you go swimming , too ?
Sure . I think it ' s a fantastic place to go .
I couldn ' t agree more . That ' s an ideal place for a vacation .
It sure is .
Do you live with your parents ?
No , they live in Shanghai , my hometown .
How often do you go back to visit them ?
Just make yourself at home .
Thank you . You are cooking up a storm .
Wouldn't you like some more chicken ?
I've had enough of that !
Why , this is the most interesting film !
I hate the hero . He ' s too cruel .
Where are you going ?
Take me to the center station , please
OK , here we go .
Do you think you can get me there seven thirty ?
We shouldn't have any trouble if we don't get stuck in the traffic jam .
Hope we have good luck .
Here we are , you still get plenty of time . That's 8 . 15 $ , please .
Jack , I think it's best that I actively ask for the results of interview .
That's a good idea ! So you don't need to worry about it .
I think so , too . What do you think about that I write a letter of inquiry to the company ?
It's OK . You could send an email to the employer via the internet .
Good idea . It is convenient and fast .
You could inquire about the results directly , but should be politely .
Certainly .
I think the letter of inquiry should be written briefly . If it's too long , I'm afraid the employer won't have time to read it .
I think that about one hundred words are enough .
After you send the letter of inquiry , you should pay close attention not to miss any reply .
I heard you received a prize for you book .
yes , I did . I won a prize for best local history book at the annual book awards .
congratulations ! You must be very proud of your achievement .
actually , I was happy just to get the book published . Winning the prize was an added bonus .
what was the prize ?
I won $ 200 to spend on any books of my choice .
that ' s a great prize for a person who writes books ! Have you ever won a prize before ?
I shared a prize with some friends last week . We won a bottle of whisky at a pub quiz .
I didn't see you at Mr . Johnson's class today .
Yeah , I quit .
Why ?
We are interested in your pure silk , but I'm wondering about the price . How much will you possibly offer us ?
It's $ 120 per yard including a 5 % discount .
That's much higher than I expected . Can you come down a bit ?
But if you placed a larger order , we would increase the discount to 10 % .
Supposing we agreed to your price , what payment terms could you offer us ?
Maybe we would consider a longer credit period .
I'm afraid we can't increase salary this year , money is just too title .
I'm not sure I can't agree , dan .
Why not ?
Surely , there are other ways to save money .
Let's take a coffee break , shall we ?
I wish I could , but I can't .
What keeps you so busy ? You've been sitting there for hours . You've got to walk around . You just can't stay on the computer forever .
Well , I am up to my neck in work . I've got to finish this report . Sarah needs it by noon . I don't want to be scolded if I can ' t finish my work by the deadline .
How do you feel about wearing name logos or slogans on your clothing ?
I've never really thought about it before . I guess it doesn't bother me .
Do you think advertising has an influence on the choices you make when you're shopping ?
I guess so . I usually buy name-brand clothing , shoes , and electronic goods . How about you ?
I actually try to avoid name-brand items . I can't stand it when big companies advertise their products all over the place !
I know that advertisers are experts at persuading people to spend their money , I think brilliant items are usually higher quality than ~ grounds .
I think is sensible to buy products that is high quality than others when you want to buy something that's going to last a long time , but I don't think it always makes sense .
Do you have a brand preference for anything ?
I do for shower items like shower gel and shampoo , but I don't for higher-end items .
What do you think about the " impossible is nothing " billboard on the high street ?
It's just a slogan for a famous company ; there's nothing really special about it .
I think it's a brilliant advert ! It really grabs my attention !
John's very late . Do you think he's coming ?
Well , it doesn't seem like it . He must have forgotten .
So Kim , have you ever had anything stolen ?
Stolen ? No , why ?
My uncle just had his motorcycle stolen a few nights ago . I was just thinking about how clever criminals are these days .
Criminals are clever ? They're only successful when people are careless .
I don't know . The ones who stole my uncle's motorcycle were pretty good .
If your uncle had an alarm system , then it wouldn't have happened .
He did . It was one of the best ones available . But that didn't stop them from disabling 11 it . And on a crowded street too .
Didn't anyone stop them ?
You would think that people would be smart enough to stop something like that . No one knew his motorcycle was being stolen . The thieves came in a truck and convinced everybody that my uncle was parked illegally and they were there to tow it away .
Wow , they were good . I guess criminals aren't that dumb after all .
Do you have any habits such as smoking ?
No , I rarely smoke . I don't drink , either . I only drink with my family on celebrations or with close friends .
What kind of winter sport do you like best ?
My favorite winter sport is skiing . In addition , I am keen on basketball .
What do you like doing in your spare time ?
I like doing aerobics in my spare time . It's good for my health .
Do you have any hobbies ?
Which film shall we see ?
There is nothing good at the moment . Let ' s do something different . Would you like to go to a concert ?
Yes , I'd love to . Here is a good one , Mozart and Beethoven . It ' s on the Festival Hall . Shall we go there ?
Fine ! Do you want anything to eat now ?
No , I'm not hungry .
Um , which of them is the better typist ?
Well , Mary types faster than Jones . But I think Jones types more carefully .
Is there any difference in their short hand ?
Jones can certainly take down letter more quickly , but Mary ' s short hand is the best in her class .
How about languages ?
Both of them speak excellent French . But I think Mary speaks German more fluently than Jones does .
Hey , let's go out and grab a couple of beers tonight !
Sorry , I can't . I have to work late at the laboratory .
Nigel , you sure lead a dog's life , what's up with that ?
What are you doing , awake ?
I can't sleep ...
But it's almost midnight !
Exactly . I'm too excited for Christmas morning . Also , I thought I heard Santa .
Really ? How do you know it was Santa ?
Well , I heard that naughty boys and girls get coal in their stockings , so I thought I'd be nice and make Santa cookies . I even left out some milk . I heard someone in the kitchen eating the cookies , so I came downstairs !
Hmm ... well I know that Santa won't come down the chimney with you hiding behind the tree , spying on him !
Really ?
Really ! Let's go back upstairs and get back to bed . That way , we can let Santa do his job . Then when you wake up , it will be Christmas already !
O-K ...
May I come in ?
Yes , please .
How are you doing , sir ?
Fine , thank you . Are you coming for the interview as a secretary ? What's your name ?
Please allow me to introduce myself . My name is Li Hua . Nice to meet you .
Madison Suites , how may I help you ?
Yes , I'm calling from Mexico . I will be in town next week and would like to know if you have availability .
OK ma'am , can you tell me the date you expect to check in ?
Yes , July ninth . I will be there for seven nights .
We have a junior single suite or a superior double suite available for those dates .
What's the difference ?
The junior suite is smaller and has one twin bed , while the superior suite has a double bed and mini-bar .
OK , I would like to reserve the superior suite . Is breakfast included ?
Yes , a buffet breakfast is served every morning . I will need your name and your credit card details in order to complete the reservation .
What are you doing ?
What am I doing ? What am I doing ? Don ' t you know what day it is ?
Mumm . no .
It ' s only the day when the world ' s biggest sporting event is kicking off .
What ?
The World Cup ! The first match is today ! It ' s Mexico vs . South Africa ! It ' s going to be a really good match ! Both teams have a very strong offense and have skilled players . I think that South Africa
I have no idea what you ' re talking about . The only sporting event we watch at home is the Super Bowl .
This is bigger than the Super Bowl , man ! Teams from 32 countries compete against each other every four years and fight to win that trophy . They first start in a group stage with bigger groups , each g
Sounds interesting , but soccer doesn ' t really appeal to me .
Are you kidding ? Over seven hundred million people watched the final match of the World Cup ! It ' s a very exciting and nerve wracking sport ! Each nation is cheering on their team , hoping they will bec
All I know about soccer is that you can ' t use your hands and that players are always falling down , trying to get a free kick or penalty kick . It seems like a sissy sport to me !
You are studying here , aren ' t you ?
Yes . I have been here for three years .
Do you like this campus ?
Well . I ' m rather disappointed with it .
How come ?
It ' s too old . And it isn ' t as specious as I expected .
Oh . It ' s awful , but it can ' t be helped .
When the rain stops , you ' ll see how beautiful the beach is .
But the rain has been pouring down for two days . We ' Ve both caught colds .
And this bedroom is too big and damp . But it ' s better than a tent .
How about a movie tonight ?
It doesn't matter to me .
Does 7 o'clock suit you ?
Either way . I don't care .
How about a snack after work ?
I couldn't careless .
Would you rather stay home ?
Whatever you say .
Are you really interested in doing something ?
This is my uncle , Charles .
He looks strong . What does he do ?
He's a captain .
He must be very brave .
Hi , what can I get for you ?
Hello , may I have a double cheeseburger ?
With everything on it ?
That sounds great .
Did you want fries with your order ?
May I get a large order of curly fries ?
Did you want something to drink ?
Get me a medium Pepsi .
Would you like anything else ?
No , thank you . That's it .
No problem , that'll be $ 5 . 48 .
Dad , you've been driving for three hours . Why don't we have a switch ?
There're a lot of chuckholes on this old highway . Driving on it is experience-demanding .
Trust me . I've been driving for two years .
Wow , the ferris wheel over there is so big . I'd like to take a ride on it .
It is called Energy Collector .
Look at your right-hand . Is it the zone of the Lost Maya Kingdom ?
Maybe . Oh . I see the Jungle Flying Train . I once rode it . It was very exciting .
I want to have a try later .
Me , too . Daniel , look at your left side . Can you see the Air Force Ants ?
Wow , that's my favorite . It's like a superman shooting right up into the sky .
Good , you can make your dream come true here .
Of course . After this , I want to show you to the Haunted House .
So you can prove you are a man .
Bingo !
What do you like for dessert ?
Do you have trifles ?
Yes .
Please bring me some trifles and apple pies .
Good morning , sir . What can I do for you ?
Good morning . I want to deposit a sum of money into my account .
OK ! How much do you want to deposit ?
Well , I want to deposit 2,000 yuan into my account .
Would you please fill in a deposit form first ? Please write down your name , your account number and the amount you want to put in .
OK . I wonder about the rate of interest of the account .
Interest is paid at the rate of 1 % per annum at present . And it is added to your account every year .
Thank you very much .
Hi , waiting for the bus ? Where are you going ?
China Hotel .
Why don't you take a taxi ? It'll get you there much faster .
Hello , Jack ! Fancy meeting you here !
Yes , it's really a surprise . How are you ?
Fine . How is Jim ?
Oh , he is all right . But busy as usual . Well , why don't we have a good chat at a bar ? It's been long time since we met each other last time .
Please pull your vehicle over to the side of the road . Please roll down your window .
What's the matter , sir ?
Have you been drinking ?
No , I haven't sir .
Really ? But I can smell alcohol on your breath . Blow into this breathalyzer , please .
But , sir , I didn't drink at all .
If you refuse to blow , you'll receive a much severer punishment .
OK . I'll blow .
Your BAC exceeds the legal limit .
But I ...
Bill , where are we going to stay tonight ?
What about a motel ?
What's that ?
It's a hotel but cheaper and offers free parking .
Well , that sounds good , I have never lived in a motel .
We like your product , and are interested in placing an order with you as soon as possible .
Well , we can proceed with the order until after the Christmas holidays . Our factories will be closed for another week .
That's all right . We will send you a purchase order in one week . I hope you will be able to take care of it .
No problem . Once we get your purchase order , we will begin the execution of the order right away .
Thanks . We need the products in less than one month , because we have a big deal with another company . By the way , will payment against delivery be OK ?
What ? I don't get it ...
Many of the slower dances are danced to the lyrics of tragedies . He meant that you turned it into a comedy .
Well , I'm glad I made everyone happy .
He meant it in a good way . You added a little spice to the performance .
I'm glad you guys all have such a good sense of humor . Ha-ha ...
My name is Helen Levin . I'm the HR director of our company .
Miss Levin . Nice to meet you .
It's raining outside , Catherine , it's too bad . What ' s the weather like in your hometown ?
It's very hot , the temperature is often over 40C .
Do you like the weather in Seattle ?
Not really . But I like it in spring and fall . I don't like it in winter .
Why ?
The winter is very rainy , I don't like the rainy day .
What about the weather in Boston ?
I lived there for three years . I like summer but I don't like winter .
Is it very cold in winter ?
Your family must be busy shopping for Christmas , now .
Oh yeah and decorating the house too was colored paper and pictures . they will put a Christmas tree just inside the front door , pained toys and colored electric lights along the branches and plays all the gift packages under it
Woo , your home will beautiful on Christmas .
Sure thing .
I do wish your christmas and happy new year .
Do I have to take these books here if I want to renew them ?
You can renew the books over the computer .
Looking through your C . V . , I see that you graduated from Oklahoma State University . Can you tell me what training you have had that would specifically relate to the cable television Industry ?
Well , I ' Ve attended some conferences in this field . But the most relevant training I ' Ve had was in computer design . I believe I could integrate that knowledge with my college degree to design
I see . Did you have anything specific in mind ?
Well , I notice that you currently provide an on-screen TV Guide . At the moment , it just scrolls the names of the programs in a repeated loop . If you have many channels , you have to wait a long t
That ' s impressive . How would you make that pay ?
Tie it in with the pay-per-view services , and perhaps it could be a money-maker .
I see you have several good ideas . Now , I just have a few questions about your C . V . I notice that there is a five-year gap between your last job and now .
Yes , I took a break from work during that time . I had a baby , and as she was born with a handicap , I decided to suspend my career . But I have continued to keep up with the Industry through con
What would you like to drink ?
I feel like a cup of black tea .
Wouldn't you like something to eat ?
Yes , I'd like a portion of that strawberry tart .
Where did you study accounting ?
I studied at Anshan University .
Did you intern anywhere ?
Yes , I interned with an accounting firm during tax season .
That must have been stressful .
Yes , but I learned a lot .
I'll bet .
Where to , madam ?
Grand Central Station , please . I want to catch a 6 p . m . train .
I think you'll make it if we don't get stuck in a traffic jam .
Here is the Grand Central Station .
Thank you . How much is the fare ?
The meter reads 9 . 15 dollars .
Here you are . Keep the change .
I'm afraid of the darkness .
Don't worry . I'll drive you back .
Hello . I would like to make a reservation at 8: 00 .
OK , sir . How many are coming ?
4 . By the way , what's your dress code ?
We require a jacket and tie .
Take me to this address , please .
Yes , Ma'am . Here we are .
How much do I owe you , sir ?
30 dollars , Ma'am .
Are you kidding ? The meter says 15 dollars , doesn't it ?
Yes , but we need some extra charge and some tip too .
I don't get it . I'll go and have our doorman talk to you then .
Good evening , sir . can I help you ?
I have a room registered in your hotel . My name is Charles Hill .
Just a minute , please .
Yes , a single room for March 28 .
We ' re asking for donations today .
What are you collecting donations for ?
We ' re trying to raise money for the campaigns .
How much are you planning on raising ?
As much as possible .
What kind of fundraisers are you doing ?
We are going door to door .
You should try actual fundraisers , too .
What else can we do ?
Try having a car wash or selling candy .
I didn ' t think of that .
I have a reservation for a single with a bath .
We're sorry , but single rooms have been occupied .
What's the room rate ? It's little expensive for me . Do you have any other room ?
Then , how about this room with just a shower ?
May I see the room ? I'll take this room . Is the rate for a room only ?
Michael , it is time to wake up .
Huh ?
Yes , it is time to wake up . And , also , from now on I will speak only English to you . And you should speak only English to me , too .
Okay , mom .
Right . That's good .
It will be hard at first , but I think I can do it .
I know you can do it .
I will do my best .
Dad , how can we get to the zoo ?
We can take a bus there .
Does this bus go there ?
I think so .
Let's step in , Dad .
No , it's too crowded .
Dad . Here comes another bus .
Fine . Let's get on . Oh , no , Judy ! Get off the bus quickly !
Why ? Dad ?
Did Bean send these dirty jokes to you , too ? Look !
What a creep ! Phony good luck e-mails are one thing , but sexual harassment is crossing the line .
No wonder he asked for my address first-he just wants to harass me !
Is there anything I can do for you ?
I would like to go to Europe for a visit ? Can you recommend me an interesting city ?
Why not go to Paris ? It's famous for Arch of Triumph , Eiffel , versailles and place de la Concorde .
Do you have a package tour to Paris ?
What's your favorite TV Program ?
I like variety shows .
I also like variety shows , but sometimes the host lacks a sense of humor .
You must like negotiating a lot . People are saying , you are a super negotiator .
Ha , I am flattered . Actually , when it comes to negotiate , you don ' t need to like it . You just need to understand how it works .
I am not good at it by any means . Give me some advice .
Well , generally speaking , if you want to change someone ' s mind or understand his position , you have to put yourself in his shoes . Understand his need and the cost for his need . And then you work together to find a solution .
Sounds easy . But how can I apply to practice ? I am thinking about applying for more reimbursement for my mobile bill . But I am afraid our boss will turn me down .
Hey , Bob . Are you getting the feeling you've been here before ?
Yes , I'm sure I've been here before .
Maybe we're walking in circles .
I heard that Kevin got divorced . Is that true ?
Not so bad , but Kevin does have problems with his wife .
What ?
His wife always complained that Kevin's salary was too low and got no promotion .
Poor Kevin , we should do something for him . He is a nice guy and does his job well .
I want to rent a formal suit here . Do you have a purple dress here ?
Yes . What size are you ?
I am a size 6 .
Try this on please .
This is just my size . How much is the rent
Is our destination the amusement park ?
Yes , I think even though we are adults , it's still a good place for us to relax .
What are you going to enjoy ?
I want some exciting . Which is more fun , the roller coaster or the ferris wheel ?
I like neither .
Come on . Here is for enjoying and exciting .
OK , let me think . The roller coaster looks more fun .
I like ferris wheel more .
It doesn't matter . We can go to the ferris wheel later .
Steven , I need badly your help .
What's the matter ?
My wife has found that I have an affair with my secretary , and now she is going to divorce me .
How could you cheat on your wife ? You have been married for ten years .
Yes , I know I'm wrong . But I swear that the affair lasts only for two months . And I still love my wife . I couldn't live without her .
I will try my best to persuade her to reconsider the divorce . But are you sure that from now on you will be faithful to her forever ?
How do you like this dress ?
It's nice . But what kind of dress are you looking for ?
Something attractive and dressy . Maybe a little sexy too . New Year's Eve is a special occasion and it only happens once a year , right ?
Of course . It's common too that we wear something special for our Chinese New Year .
People here always wear the best clothes they have . Many people go out and buy clothes especially for New Year's Eve .
Any other common customs of your New Year ?
Before the New Year , we always send greeting cards to our relatives and friends to wish them a happy year . On the street and in stores people usually greet others with a ' Happy New Year ' . It's also common for people to make a New Year's resolution .
What's that ?
It's when people quit a bad habit or do something they find hard to do . Many people resolve to quit smoking , lose weight , or stop nagging their wife , etc . However , it usually lasts only for a few days !
By the way , where are you going on New Year's Eve ?
We're going to a night club for dinner and dancing , then we'll go down to the city square for the big celebration . There's always a fireworks display put on by the local government . We all want you to come too .
Get up , you lazybones !
Mary ! I haven ' t seen you since our dinner with Mr . Lee last week . Where have you been hiding yourself lately ?
Oh , hi Mike . I ' Ve been out of town the last few days . What did you need ?
Really , nothing big . I just heard about your ideas on employee motivation and I wanted chat with you about a few things going on in my department .
Well , feel free to drop by my office any time . The door ' s always open .
Actually , I was hoping to mix business with pleasure . Would you be interested in joining me for dinner some time this week ? I thought we might try out the new Italian restaurant everyone ' s been
Sure , Mike , I ' d love to .
Is this evening too soon ?
I don't have my homework today .
You usually are good about turning it in ; what happened ?
I was really sick .
But couldn't you have done it when you felt better ?
Yes , I probably could .
You have already missed one other assignment ; when can I expect the make-ups ?
Next class meeting .
That will be soon enough , but make sure you get next week's assignment in as well , all right ?
That would work for me .
You're having coffee , aren't you ?
Yes , I always have coffee in the morning .
What are you going to have to eat ?
I'm going to order scrambled eggs and toast . What about you ?
You're going to get into a lot of trouble if you do that .
What makes you say that ?
I don't see anything wrong with what we're doing ! That's just the problem . In these kind of things , the trouble doesn't always appear at first .
But everything has been so easy .
Everything has gone as smooth as clockwork . Just like we planned ! That may be true , but if you were to do it , you would have trouble on the horizon . You always say that .
Yeah , you never look at the positive side of things .
Are you looking for something special ?
Yes , where can I buy trousers ?
Follow me , please . How do you like this one ?
What mark is it ?
May I help you ?
Give me six-piece chicken nuggets , a large fries , and a large coke .
You will need to wait a few minutes for fries . They're still in the fryer .
That's fine .
Your total comes to 7 dollars .
Here's 20 .
Thank you . Your cash back is 13 dollars . Pull into a parking states , and we'll bring you your fries in two minutes .
As an experienced interviewer , could you tell me what kind of behavior the interviewer hates most ?
Rudeness . You are not expected to sit down before being invited , and you shouldn ' t throw yourself into the chair like you ' re loading heavy baggage .
And we should have good sitting posture .
That ' s right . The ideal posture for women is to put their legs together and lean to one side . This is especially important in summer .
Where should I put my overcoat and briefcase after entering the office ?
Put it beside you . Don ' t pile your purses , briefcase and other belongings on the employer ' s desk . You've got long hair . Don ' t touch it while talking to the interviewer . It gives people the feeling that you cannot concentrate on your work .
I think that ' s the reason why Princess Diana ' s hair style became so popular .
Also , if you are asked to sit beside the employer's desk , neither lean on it nor look at the documents there .
I ought to respect other people ' s privacy , as most Westerners do .
Come to think of it , there is one rule in this house , Mary .
What is it ?
When you go out with friends , I don't want you to stay out too late .
Okay .
We maintain a curfew for Cindy because she's just 16 .
How late can we stay out ?
You can stay out till 10 p . m .
But if we're going to be late ?
Hi , Mike . We're having a party tonight , wanna come join us ? You can bring your girlfriend .
Well . I am breaking up with Cathy .
What happened ? Did you have a fight ?
No . She is really a very nice girl ...
Yeah , she is . She is pretty , caring , getting easy-going and she is a great cook . She is a gem .
Well , you are right . But sometimes she is too caring . Well , no ... she ' s just possessive and I kind of want a break ... you know ... for some room for myself .
Oh ? ! Did you talk with her about it ?
I've tried , but it didn't work .
So , when are you going to tell her ?
Maybe tonight . I don't know . I don't know how to tell her .
I know she ' s head over heels in love with you . She will be badly hurt !
Excuse me , I want to go to Galion by ship . Is there a ship to Dalian ?
Yes , there is . There is only one ship there every day .
What time does it leave ?
It leaves at 9:30 a . m ..
Could you please tell me about the cabins ?
Yes , all the cabins are fit for two .
Then where can I catch it ?
At Pier Five .
George , did you remember to buy the book ?
Sorry , darling , I forgot .
When will you buy it then ?
Good evening . Welcome to our restaurant .
Good evening . We want a dinning room with a table for eight .
I'm sorry , sir . The rooms are not available now . But would you like to have your dinner in the dinning hall ? I can find a table by the window for you .
No , thanks . We have made a reservation before .
Can I have your name , please ?
My name is James .
I'll ask waitress to show you the way .
Why is there no water coming out when you turn on the faucet ?
Not even a single drop ?
Well , it's just drip drip drip . But that's not water .
I don't know . Since yesterday morning , the water pressure has dropped to a little more than a drip .
Did you call the apartment management yet ?
Yeah , I called and they said they'd send someone over .
How long ago did you do that ?
It was 36 hours ago .
What's that ?
It's a surprise !
For me ?
Yes . Let's go inside and you can open it up .
Wow ! It's big ! What could it be ?
I'll give you two clues . First , it cost more than $ 250 . And second , it's not big , but fat .
Okay , Rebecca . Now you ' Ve given me a good idea of your work and academic background , but what about you as a person ? How would you describe your key strengths ?
Well , Mr . Parsons , as I mentioned before I ' m someone who needs new challenges . I ' m really focused and hard-working . I think my academic results prove this .
Yes , true , but how about other personal qualities ?
Well , I believe I ' m a good team-player , but I can also work well independently . I ' m very enthusiastic and , well I hope my colleagues would agree , I ' m fun to work with .
What would you say is your most positive quality ?
I'm sorry , but I can't come to your party .
Good morning . Do I need an appointment ?
No , ma'am , there's only one person ahead of you . You won't have to wait long .
Thank you .
All right , madam , it's your turn . What will it be today ?
I've been wearing my hair long for years , but now I'd like to try some kind of modern style . What do you suggest for a woman like me , that is , with hair like mine ?
Come here , please . We'd like to wash your hair first . That way it will be easier to cut and style . I think you'll like this style . It's very fashionable .
I hope so . I'm really tired of this old-fashioned style that I've been wearing .
Would you like me to blow-dry your hair ?
Yes , if you think it will help .
What do you think of it ?
It's great ! Will it be hard to care for ?
Not at all . When you wash it , it will fall into place naturally . You'll probably need another cut in about a month . Shall I make an appointment for you ?
Have you given the puppies anything to eat today ?
I fed them earlier today .
Great ! Could you please bathe them later ?
Okay , I'll do that later .
Thank you ! Remember that they go to the vet this Saturday .
I know . What time is their appointment ?
We need to have them there at 11
Going to the gym tonight , Mary ?
Yes , Sally . I want to do some sit-ups and perhaps get in a game of singsong .
That sounds like fun . Would you mind some company ?
I'd love it . Working out is more fun with a friend .
I'll get my things and meet you there .
I don't think the teacher had a right to say that . The teacher was wrong to have accused her in front of the whole class .
You've got to be joking ! It's the teacher's right to say anything wants , and if she saw Myra cheating , she certainly had the right to say so .
I agree she had the right to say something , but I feel she should have done it privately .
I ' d like to apply for a secretarial position .
Very well , do you know any shorthand ?
No , but I can write very fast .
Can you use the computer or other office machines ?
No , but I ' d like to learn how to use them .
Yes , I see , this is a permanent position .
Can you work every day from 9 to 5 ?
Oh , no , I ' m student at a university , and I have to study most of the time . I can only work part time .
Has anyone told you about Jessica's party coming up ?
I was told about it already . I'm just waiting for my invitation .
Is that right ? I already got my invitation from her earlier .
I believe that she will give me the invitation today .
Are you even going to go ?
Yeah , it sounds like it's going to be the best party of the year .
Exactly , it seems like it's going to be loads of fun .
When exactly does the party start ?
The invitation says it starts at 8
Has she given out a lot of invitations yet ?
I have no idea , she hasn't given out many though .
Where can I find information on this subject ?
I'm not sure . Let's look up the catalogue .
Will you give some advice on this experiment ?
I advise that step be taken in power supply first .
What's his suggestion for this work ?
His suggestion is that the work be started at once .
The way I see it is that they'd join us .
I'd like to speak Dr . Johnson .
Sorry , but he's not in . May I take a message for you ?
This is Robert Jordan . Would you ask him to call me back , please ?
Wow ! Look at the time . lt's about 11 0 ' clock .
Really ? I didn't realize it was so late .
You look great today . And so beautiful . I love your elegant haircut .
Excuse me . When ' s the next bus ?
The next bus will be here in four minutes .
Oh , good . That ' ll be the number forty four ?
No , it's the number fifty-eight .
So when's the next forty-four ? Will it be here soon ?
No , it won't .
So when will it be here then ?
Never .
Never ?
Waitress , can I have the bill , please ?
Yes , sir . How would you like to pay the bill , sir ?
Do you accept credit cards ?
Yes , sir . But we only accept American Express , Master card and Visa . What kind do you have ?
Master card . Here you go .
Chinese tea is famous all over the world . I want to buy several boxes .
There are various kinds of tea in China . It depends on the taste and effect .
Well , I do not know Chinese tea at all .
This is green tea , you can drink it in summer . It can relieve summer-heat and it is good for maintaining your lungs .
Sounds interesting . What about this ?
It is black tea , it has a strong taste and promotes digestion .
What's this ? It smells fragrant .
It is jasmine tea of high quality . It is fragrant and has a pleasant taste .
I will take the jasmine tea . Could you pack it with the wrapping paper and ribbon ? It is a gift for my friend .
Welcome to IBA . What can we do for you today ?
Hello . I'm a Financial Manager in a local company and we'd like to open a Foreign Currency Account with you .
I see . That shouldn't be a problem , Sir . Which currency would you require ?
We have recently started doing a lot of business with British companies , so we'd like to open a GAP account . How should we go about this ?
The first step is to fill in the Account Opening Application and the accompanying Seal Card , stamped with your company's seal . I mean , the business seal and the corporate seal . We also need your Business Licence and the Enterprise Standard Code Certificate . Then we can go on to the next step .
Thank you for showing me your offices , Mr . Becker . I can see why Washington bureaucrats enjoy their jobs .
Why do you say that ?
The city is beautiful , the off ... , the offices are modern and comfortable , and the work is so interesting .
Many people work for the federal government their entire adult lives . Government service can be a rewarding and secure career .
Do you mean financially rewarding ?
Well , many positions pay salaries that are comparable to those in private industries .
I've always thought that most bureaucrats are lazy .
Sometimes that's true , but not usually . Most feds are honest , hard-working professionals . It ' s hard to keep highly trained people , so the pay and working conditions have to be attractive .
How much do you make ?
How are you doing ?
I'm pretty good , you ?
I'm awesome .
How long have you been on the bus ?
I've been on here for like , 15 minutes .
Do you catch this bus a lot ?
Not much , I have a car .
So , you have your own car ?
I sure do .
Then , why are you on the bus with me ?
I'm waiting till our President gets out of office , and the gas prices go down .
Two people were robbed last night near the park .
Again ? The area around the park is too dark at night . There should be more lights there .
I am afraid of the dark . I don ' t feel safe in the dark . I feel someone is hiding in the dark to attack me .
Your feelings might be right . You should never walk alone there at night . It is too dangerous .
We ' Ve been over this a thousand times . The data is irrefutable ! Look , we ' Ve done extensive research , built studies , and read the literature , and there is conclusive evidence to support my theory !
Horowitz , I beg to differ . Even in your most recent study , the investigative approach was flawed ! You know as well as I do that the collection of data was not systematic , and there is a large margin of error . To draw a definitive conclusion based on that data would be misleading
That is preposterous !
You are trying to single-handedly solve one of the world ' s greatest mysteries , and yet you are oblivious to the fact that you are wrong !
I am not wrong ! The chicken came first !
What do you expect to be doing five years from now ? What are your medium-term career goals ?
Do you know a bus I can take from Altadena to downtown LA ?
I believe you can take the 486 .
Will that bus really take me to LA ?
It sure will .
Is it a very long ride ?
It's a forty-five minute to an hour ride .
Really ?
It doesn't take long at all
Do a lot of people ride that bus ?
More people start getting on around LA .
Wow , thanks a lot .
... Now that we have been over the gory details of our disastrous first quarter , Ed ! Give us some good news . How are things looking for us in terms sales this month ?
Uh well ... would you like the bad news first or the really bad news ?
What ? Ed , don ' t tell me you only have bad news !
Well sir , our sales have dropped , no plunged , fifty percent in the past month alone . We are currently overstocked and overstaffed and our profits refalling fast . The market is in recession and we have no way of moving our inventory , or getting rid of our staff . If we consider redundancies , it would cost us a fortune because of the new regulations governing compensation packages . It ' s a real mess .
For crying out loud ... How fast are we losing money ?
Um ... how can I put this ? Let ' s just say that at this pace , we will be filing for Chapter eleven in less than three months .
What ! Geez ! How could this have happened ? So what ' s the bad news ?
Oh , that ' s the really bad news . Our supplier suffered QC problems and , well , half of our production is faulty . We ' re going to have to recall all itemssold in the last quarter . And the worst part ? We ' re going to have to shoulder this cost .
Are you joking ? Get the supplier on the line now ! They have to assume the costs of this mess !
We tried that , sir . The factory has gone under and the owner apparently has fled the country .
We ' re doomed !
There is some really good news though !
Really ? What !
Let's skip The X-files tonight , Fran . Okay ? Just this once ?
Let me guess . You want to watch the History Channel again !
How did you know ! There's a program on ancient Egypt tonight .
Well , I guess I could tape The X-files and watch it later ...
Look , it's starting !
That dress is too expensive .
But it ' s so pretty .
Yes , it is pretty , but it costs $ 200 . What about this one ? It ' s almost the same , but it costs half as much .
It ' s not the same . It ' s completely different .
It ' s just a little shorter .
I really like this one .
Well , it ' s your money . You can spend it however you want . Do you really think it ' s pretty ?
Hello , Madam . Are you alright ?
I'm here to pay my telephone bill . I usually go to the post office , but I was told that I could take care of it here . Is that right ?
Yes , that's correct , Madam . You don't need to go to a counter at all , you can use one of our ATM machines . I'll be more than happy to help you .
I don't usually like to use Atms , I like dealing with a real person , you see .
Hello . Front desk . How can I help you ?
Good evening . Is the kitchen open now ?
I ' m sorry . The kitchen is closed after midnight .
It ' s ok , good night .
Are you voting tomorrow ?
Of course . What about you ?
You know that I am .
Where is your polling place ?
It ' s at the park up the street .
Oh , is that right ?
Where ' s your polling place ?
I have no idea .
How come you don ' t know where it is ?
Nothing came in the mail telling me my polling place .
You should check online .
I have a little problem with room 507 .
Problems are what we're here for , sir . Please tell me your problem .
This room is filthy with cockroaches .
Were you wearing your glasses when you noticed them , sir ?
I've already seen nine of them and , as they say , eight is enough !
Sir , sometimes a fast elevator ride makes our guests see spots .
You are not in a position to question my vision or my statement !
How about going to dance this evening , Jane ? You will find that the night life of this city is very interesting !
Good idea . There is a good nightclub nearby , isn't it ?
Yes , the dance hall is nice with various styles of music .
( In the club ) Look at those people in the dance floor , they are so crazy .
That's rock and roll with fast tempo .
I like the slow dance . I am good at rumba and waltz .
Take it easy . The time for slow dance is the middle part of the party .
Let's find a quiet seat and sit down for beverage .
OK , follow me .
Listen , it is waltz . I like the elegant step of the old styles .
May I ?
Sure .
How much for the bus ride ?
It's $ 1 . 25 for this bus .
How long have you been a bus driver ?
I started driving the bus a few months ago .
Is it fun driving the bus ?
Not at all .
I don't think I ever wanted to be a bus driver .
I never did either , but it pays the bills .
I enjoyed talking to you .
Hi ! Good morning , Sarah !
Good morning , Dr Lee .
I have not seen you for a long time . How are you ?
Not very well .
What are your symptoms ?
I have nausea , and I am dizzy . Also I have a abdominal pain .
Where is the pain ? Could you show me please ?
Here .
What kind of pain ? Sharp pain , dull pain or severe pain ?
Sharp pain .
Is the pain continuous ?
No , It is not continuous . It comes and goes .
Please lie down over there .
All right .
Does it hurt when I push here ?
No .
What about here ?
Not really .
How long have you been like this ?
For about a month .
How about your appetite ?
I am eating pretty good .
How about your bowel movements ?
What prompted you to apply to this company ?
It owns 10 factories and offers stocks to the public .
Why do I have to hire you ?
Hey Jackie . What are you doing ?
Nothing much . I'm just relaxing today . Why ? What's going on ?
I was thinking about heading to the mall . Do you want to go ?
Are they having a sale ?
Yeah . Both Bon and Nordstrom's is having there annual sale . It's a great time to buy some clothes you've been holding out on .
That sounds great . Where should we meet ?
I'll meet you in front of Nordstrom's in 30 minutes .
Sounds good . See you there .
What do you think about these shoes ?
They're cute . But do you think you'll wear them much ?
No . Not really .
This sweater is so pretty . I love the low neck design .
I bet it's expensive .
It's on sale for $ 80 . What do you think ? Should I try it on ?
Hello , Mr . Brown . How are you today ?
I ' m very well , thank you .
that ' s good to hear . Shall we get started ? I see from your application form that you ' Ve worked as a maintenance man for over 7 years .
yes , that ' s true .
what kind of work did you do ?
I fixed many kinds of machine tools such as milling machines , grinders , welders , etc . I also repaired other things such as vacuums , toilets , locks , etc . I also did some electrical work . I took some courses about electrical systems .
That ' s good . What kind of electrical work did you do ?
I took care of commercial and residential coolers and heaters . I fixed many kinds of power failure problems . Some co-workers and I even rewired part of a building .
well , your work experience sounds good for the job we have open . Now tell me about the best job you ' Ve ever had , please .
the best job ? What do you mean ?
like the job you feel the most proud of .
I think my favorite job so far was when I worked for Linaria . It was hard work but the people on my job crew were great to work with . We really worked as a team . I enjoy working with those people .
Tell me something about a time when you did something well , something you feel proud of .
I fixed a big problem with a machine and saved a lot of money for the factory . I got bonus for it .
that ' s great . No wonder you feel proud of that . Now let me ask you another question .
Go ahead , please .
in all the jobs you ' Ve had , what was it you disliked the most ?
wow , this question is hard to answer . I don ' t think I ' Ve ever had a job that I really disliked . But I dislike work that is monotonous , always the same from day to day . I like to move around and do different things .
all right . Do you have any questions ?
no . I can ' t think of any right now .
you ' ll hear from us by the end of this week .
Did you read the letter in the paper about smoking ? The person who wrote that must be crazy .
I don't think so . I think the government should do everything it can to discourage people from smoking .
Maybe so . But a law banning cigarettes would do no good .
Darling , can't you stay for a few more days ?
I can't . I've got to attend a meeting in London .
I'm really going to miss you . Take care of yourself .
Which pair of jeans do you like best ?
I really like the straight legs .
But they aren't very fashionable . What about these ?
I don't like the way they sag down . I feel like I have plumber butt in them .
That's the style ! You just wear boxers .
What if someone got it in their head to give them a tug ? What then ?
You're so old fashioned ! Nobody is going to pull down your pants !
Have you been served , sir ?
I am just looking , thank you ... Excuse me . Can you tell me where I can buy a pair of shoes ?
It's on the fourth floor .
Excuse me , but could you give me some change ?
Let me see . Are dimes and quarters OK ?
I want to make a long distance phone call .
Bob's sister will go to America .
Why tell me ? She has nothing to do with me !
I thought you wanted to know more about her .
Good evening . Welcome to our program .
Thank you . Good evening , Mr . Dean .
Would you tell us your name , please ?
I'm Helen Baker .
Glad to meet you , Ms . Baker .
Glad to meet you , too .
Where are you from , Ms . Baker ?
I'm from New Zealand .
What do you do for a living ?
I'm a teacher .
What's wrong with you ?
I have had a low fever these days .
Don't worry . I'll write you a prescription for a new medicine that works wonders .
Actually I have a passion for Chinese literature .
You do ?
Yeah , those classics from the great writers .
Which team do you think will emerge with the last laugh in this World Cup ?
I wish it could be Germany . But it seems they are not in a very good conditions .
No , they aren't . They had a hard time in the group stage and only sealed a sit in the eighth-finals with Wallack ' s header in the final three minutes . Just think , group A consists of Austria , China , and Saudi Arabia , all of which are minnows .
It seems they've been out of luck since the beginning of the event . Their shots hit the woodwork as many as six times . Oh . my goodness ! I'm afraid the team is under a spell .
Well , at least the Germans have demonstrated a very good ability to control the midfield . They recorded a total of 62 tackles in the match against Austria . And they to be endowed with perfect positional sense . I think that will give rise to scoring chances sooner or later .
I agree . Eeven though German attackers are not good at dribbling past opposing defenders , they breach the defensive line through quick movements to the right attacking positions and through accurate , well-timed passes .
That's why I still have very high hopes for the team . Now that the tournament has proceeded into the knock-out stage , the Germans will probably make it through to the finals .
What's up , buddy ? You look so upset .
I just broke up with a girl . Why didn't she understand that I loved her ?
I'm sorry to hear that . What's your conflict ?
I don't know . She always said I didn't love her , but I did .
Did you think about talking to her again ? Maybe she is waiting for your call .
I have asked for a talk again , but she refused and said she wanted to be quiet .
What are your strengths and weaknesses ?
I have just left school , but I am well acquainted with office work .
Why are you qualified for this position ?
Since leaving school , I have attended typewriting and shorthand classes , and have now attained a speed of fifty and ninety works respectively .
What can you contribute to the position of a market analyst ?
I know how to gather and summarize information from the Intent , which is an essential skill for market analysis .
What job-related skills do you have ?
Where can I find a spare hose for the pump ?
What size do you need ?
25 mm diameter .
They're at the back of the stores , second shelf up on the right-hand side .
Thanks . Have you got any light bulbs ?
They're in the blue cupboard . Anything else ?
Oh yes , some wire cutters .
I ' ll need to check . Sorry , we don ' t have any in stock . But I can order some and send through the order today . How many do you need ?
Just one pair .
The winter in Ottawa is freezing .
From mid-November , snow started to pile up in Ottawa .
I think I will be adapted to it .
Although the weather here is very cold , the people are warm .
What do you think of doctor Thompson ?
I feel confident of his ability to cure my daughter's disease .
How can you be so sure ?
I can tell from the way he spoke to us .
Excuse me , could you tell me how to get to the school clinic ? I've lost my way .
Yes . Go straight ahead till you come to the traffic lights , turn left there and it's the first turning on the right .
Straight ahead to the traffic lights , left and then right .
That's it . It'll take you about five minutes .
Hello , room service . Can I help you ?
I ordered dinner about forty minutes ago . It hasn ' t been delivery yet .
We are sorry for the delay , ma ' am . Could you hold the line , please ? I ' ll check your order .
Okay .
Your order is ready . It ' s on the way to your room . We ' re very sorry to have you waiting , Ma ' am .
What are you up to tonight , Steve ?
I'm going to a disco with my friends .
Do you mind taking a photo for me ?
Of course not .
That's really kind of you .
I'm afraid I don't know how to use your camera .
Well , it's an automatic camera . You just press the button .
I see .
Excuse me , sir . Is there anything I can do for you ?
Yes . I'd like to change some money , please .
All right . How much would you like to change ?
Let me see . I think maybe 600 USD at least .
Pardon ?
Six hundred US dollars .
I'm sorry , sir , after 7
But I am badly in need of the amount . Might I ask you to make an exception for me ?
I'm afraid we cannot help you , sir , because that would be violating the regulations . I owe an apology for doing nothing about it .
Good morning , Mary !
Good morning , John !
I want to have a few friends over for a dinner party to celebrate my birthday . Would you be able to come the next weekend on Saturday ?
I'd be delighted to , John . Saturday did you say ?
Yes , if that's all right for you .
I'm pretty sure I'll be all right . In fact , I'd be delighted to come over and celebrate your birthday with you . What time are you planning to start ?
Oh , good . If you could come around six thirty or seven o'clock , that would give us some time to chat a whit over a glass of wine before dinner .
What are your weekend arrangements ?
There're many things I can do on weekends .
What sort of things are you interested in ?
I'm keen on talking short trips to nearby scenic spots . More often than not , I go with some of my friends . By the way , what are your favorites ?
I love swimming and cycling . On Sunday morning I have swimming practice for an hour . In the afternoon , I just ride my bike around the city or along the country roads for almost two hours .
That's great ! I think they do you a lot of good . Where do you swim ?
Mostly in the city's swimming pool . But on occasion , I go to the beach with friends . Well , what do you do at leisure ?
I'm fond of dancing .
Excuse me , could I ask a favour ?
Sure , go ahead .
Could you tell me where the canteen is ?
Sure , I can take you there actually .
Oh , I don't want to trouble you .
Where did you get all these barney tour pamphlets ?
I took them from a travel agency . Look at those nice pictures , lash forest , palm fringed , white sand beaches , crystal blue ocean , they ' re breath-taking . It is like paradise on earth .
That ' s why it ' s become a very popular holiday destination these years . Someone told me the service there is very good too . Are you planning to spend the holiday there ?
Yes , I ' m thinking about signing up for a tour in the travel agency . Their next tour starts the same time as my holiday does next month .
How many days is the tour ?
10 days . When I get back , I still have two days to go before work . Isn ' t that great ?
Mum , can I finish my homework later ?
Sorry . You know the rules .
But I want to watch TV now .
That ' s out of the question .
Please .
Not a chance .
Not even for an hour ?
I have talked a lot about your restaurant business and your friends with my friends . One of my friends seems to be on good terms with Sue .
Is he beating Mark ' s time ?
Hey Lisa ... want to grab lunch with me ?
Sure , Emily . We haven't done that in a while .
Yeah ... actually , we haven't hung out at all recently . You seem sort of under the weather . Is there something going on ?
Well , keep this under your hat , but I think I'm going to quit after New Year .
Quit this company ? Oh ... wow .
I know I should be pretty happy here , but I'm not finding the kind of job satisfaction I need . I'm a good graphic designer ...
One of the best in the company .
That's kind of you to say . But ... the stuff we do here hasn't really challenged me very much at all .
Oh , I get it . Simply put , you're bored , huh ?
Welcome to Bill ' s Fabric World . What can I do for you today ?
I was wondering if you guys also tailor clothes ?
Sure we do ! We have the best tailors in the country ! What is it that you need exactly ?
Well , I ' m looking to get a custom-made suit .
Excellent ! We have the finest cashmeres at affordable prices . How about we get you measured ? Let ' s start off by measuring the width of your shoulders . Now , let ' s measure the length of your arms and this bit around your neck here .
Can you make sure you leave a little extra space in the collar ? My neck gets easily irritated .
No problem ! Now for your pants , let me just measure your waist and the inseam .
You might also want to leave a little extra room in the waist area . I tend to gain a few pounds over the holidays .
Good afternoon , Ma ' am , My name is Mike and I am selling subscriptions to all sorts of periodicals .
No , thank you , I am not interested .
Please ma ' am , if you could spare five minutes of your time , I am sure we could find something that interests you !
I wish I could , but I have to walk the dog and finish cooking so if you would excuse me .
We have a great variety of magazines all about cooking ! This one for example , is a bi monthly publication with recipes from all over the world !
Wow , that would be kind of useful , do you have any other cooking magazines ?
Sure do ! This one is a quarterly publication , but each issue has over 200 color pages of recipes and also many home decorating ideas !
Wow , this is nice ! Ok , sign me up for both publications .
You mentioned you have a dog , most pet owners sign up for this weekly newsletter that has information on dog care , pet shops and even pet sitters !
That is exactly what I needed ! What else do you have ?
Can I help you ?
What do you think of this suit ? Do I look good or what ?
You look great ! However , I think you are a little over dressed for dinner .
Didn't they say we're going to the Ritz ?
Yes , but not the Ritz Carlton , the " Ritz " is a pizza place with peanut shells on the floor .
In that case , let me make a quick change into my street clothes .
I'll wait right here for you Superman .
Ta da ! Let's go to the Ritz !
How may I help you ?
I want to return this video .
Is that all you need ?
I also need to check these books out .
Anything else ?
That ' s everything .
I need your library card .
I have it . Here you go .
Do you need anything else ?
That ' s everything .
Your books are due back two weeks from today .
You know that ? Dan got a divorce .
Really ? I thought he loved his wife very much .
Yeah . But his relation with Sallycome to a sticky end and was found by his wife .
What do you think about all the different diets people go on ?
I don't think dieting is good for you . It's much better to eat a balanced diet and to never get overweight to begin with !
But what do you think about people who are obese ? What should they do to lose weight ?
They need to eat healthy foods , but they also have to increase the amount of exercise they do every day . They don't have to cut out fattening foods altogether , though .
So you think it's ok for people who are dieting to eat chocolate ?
Sure , they can eat some chocolate . As long as they are exercising and eating mostly healthy foods , there's nothing wrong with having a small dessert .
How about drinking soda ?
Many people gain weight by drinking far too much soda . Soda should be a treat ; there's simply no nutritional value in it whatsoever . If you want to lose weight and you can't stop drinking soda , try some diet coke .
That's good advice . Have you ever tried taking vitamins ?
My mother used to make me take vitamins every day , but I don't take them anymore . Vitamins are good as a supplement , but they don't do much good if you don't have a well-balanced diet to start .
How do you know so much about food and dieting ?
Jack , what's wrong ?
You !
What are you talking about ? What did I do ?
You told Martha that I was on a date ? What was that all about ?
No ... that's not what I meant . I didn't mean that . She asked me where you were and I jokingly said that you were on a date with Sara . I thought Martha knew that you and Sara were just friends .
She started feeling suspicious after you said that .
I'm sorry man . I didn't know . I didn't mean to screw anything up .
Martha gets jealous easily and it took a while to convince her that Sara was just a friend . Now , I have to explain to Sara that I can't hang around her because of you .
Look . I really didn't mean to , and next time I see Martha , I'll really tell her that you and Sara are really just friends .
Excuse me , can you help me ? I would like to change rooms if possible , I couldn ' t sleep at all last night , because the people in the room next to mine were making a lot of noise , also if at all possible , I ' d like a room that doesn ' t overlook the street , between the noisy neighbors and the highway outside , I didn ' t sleep a wink .
I am so sorry to hear that sir , let me check and see what is available , what room are you in now ?
I ' m on the 6th floor , room 698 , I ' v had many problems with that room , just this morning , I called someone up to fix the light fixture in the bathroom , it didn ' t work , and it still doesn ' t work .
Oh , dear , well , it looks like we have a few rooms available , can I put you into a room on the 17th floor ? It has a balcony and it doesn ' t face the highway .
Ok , that would be very nice ! What do I need to do to transfer ?
Let me check you out of your old room , you have to sign here , and acknowledge these changes and also the charges to your previous room . Then I can hook you right up to room 1780 .
Excuse me , sir ? I just need a little bit more information . Could you tell me your telephone number and mailing address ?
Sure . My number is 545-8897 , and I live at 908 Mulbury Street .
That ' s 545-8897 and your mailing address is 908 Mulbury Street . The zip code is 20310 , right ?
I would like to withdraw my money and close my account please .
May I see your passbook .
Here you are .
This is a sizable sum . Is there any reason you are closing your account with us Mr . Lee ?
I will be leaving the city soon so I have no need for this account .
I see . Well for this amount I will have to get my manager ' s approval .
No problem . I ' ll wait over there .
Thank you . This should only be a few minutes . If you would like , there is coffee by those sofas over there .
This is awful ! It's like drinking saltwater ! It's like drowning in the ocean !
Don't be so dramatic . You're such a baby . Now sit down and finish your soup .
OK , OK .
And when we get back from the doctor's , you'll gargle again .
Maybe I'll run away first .
Mrs . Lin . Please hold all of my calls for the next hour .
OK , but do you want to talk to your wife if she calls ?
Yes , I'll talk to her .
Can I have a look at your international timetable ?
Sorry . We don't have a printed one . Is there anything else I can do for you ?
Yes . Do you have any direct flight to Tokyo ?
Sorry , we don't . I don't think you can find any airline which offers a non-stop flight to Tokyo .
What about a flight to Paris ?
Happy Valentine's Day !
That's nice of you .
Could I treat you to dinner tonight ?
Doctor , what are some things I can do to stay as healthy as I can be ?
You need to eat healthy foods and avoid unhealthy foods .
Sometimes I don ' t know what the best foods are .
Fresh fruits and vegetables are important , along with protein and whole grains .
What things should I avoid ?
You don ' t want to eat food that is high in fat . You need to avoid caffeine and sugar .
Beyond diet , what else can I do to be healthy ?
Getting 30 minutes of exercise a day is important . If you smoke , you need to stop .
How about having a beer on the weekend ?
What do you do ?
The art critic from the daily chronicle doesn ' t think much of the max oreo exhibition . He says that the artwork is uninspiring and old fashioned .
Really ? I thought the exhibition showed that he had real talent . What did you think of it ?
I liked it . I didn ' t think his works were masterpieces , but the certainly weren ' t uninspiring , in my opinion .
I don ' t think I ' Ve ever read a good review of an exhibition by that critic . He doesn ' t seem to like anything . Which kinds of paintings do you prefer ?
I like landscapes and still life . You prefer abstract paintings , don ' t you ?
Yes , I do . I like painters who use will rather than watercolors . The colors appear richer . What do you think ?
I agree . I prefer oils too . I collect landscapes , but I only have a small collection . You have a small collection of abstract art , don ' t you ?
Yes . Good artwork is very expensive nowadays . When I was in china , I bought some calligraphy by famous artists . You should come and see it sometime .
That would be nice . Can you read the characters ?
I know what the characters on the paintings mean . I think Chinese characters look very artistic . It ' s said that the way they are written can give insight into the artist ' s character .
Hi ! How are you going ?
Fine , thank you . How are you doing this morning ?
Not bad . How about you ? Haven't seen you for a long time .
Yes . I've been to New York . I got back only yesterday .
Did you enjoy yourself ?
Very much . New York is such a nice place . Shall I show you some photographs ?
Thanks , I like looking at photographs . How nice ! Oh , I'm afraid I must be going now . I've got an appointment . Have a good day .
You too . I hope to see you soon . Goodbye .
what are you doing ?
I'm just trying to complete today's crossword puzzle . Whenever I get the time , I like to do the crossword puzzles in the paper .
you really like brains that make you think , don't you ?
I guess you could say that . What kind of games do you like ?
I guess the games I like the most are the ones that I'm good at !
doesn't everyone ? Which games are those ?
well , I like to play darts . Whenever I go to a bar , I usually play for a few hours .
did you play a lot of games when you were little ?
my parents used to love to play checkers and dominoes . We used to have family tournaments every weekend .
do you still like playing those games ?
not at all . I never really did , to be honest . What about you ? Did your family used to play games together ?
everyone in my family really enjoys playing card games .
some of my friends play cards on the internet . Have you ever tried that ?
no , I prefer to play with people I know .
how about mah-jong ?
it's a popular game with some people , but I've never played it .
I thought everyone in your country were experts at mah-jong !
Hey , Vernassa . why be angry look ?
It's the new neighbor . I hate her guts .
I've never seen you so worked up . what did she do to you ?
She made another white crack about my clothes .
Are you sure she was trying to put you down ?
Of course , I am sure .
You shall go easy on her . she is new here .
Just how am I supposed to do that ?
You shall just take it in surprise .
I've tried , but she keeps pushing my buttons .
Try to pull it together , Vernassa . I am sure things will turn note , ok ?
I am not . she is no picnic .
Well . if you think I can help , let me know .
How do you like it ?
It's quite good . I will take it .
Sure . We can deliver it to your home .
Well . I am a traveler from China . Would you please mail to China ?
Guess what ? I've got great news !
What is it ?
Well , you know how I've been working at the Economist as a proof-reader , right ?
Yes .
Well , the editor-in-chief heard that I had experience as an editor at another magadize and asked me if I was interested in becoming an assistant editor for him .
Really ? That's fantastic ! Will you get a chance to do any writing ?
She said that the columnist for the literary criticism column would be going on pregnancy leave soon and that I could be in charge of the column until she came back .
Wow ! That's really great news . How often does the magazine come out ?
It's a monthly magazine , but my column will be shared with another columnist so my articles will be due fortnightly .
Are you looking forward to doing more editing work ?
Yes , but I'm even more excited about getting my thoughts published again !
Do you have any order forms here so that I can get a subscription to the magazine ?
I don't have any with me , but I think I could manage to bring a free copy home for you .
I'm really looking forward to reading your column .
Me , too . Do you want to go out to celebrate my good news ?
Sure , where would you like to go ?
I want to buy some cloth to make a curtain . Which one is better ?
What about the twill ? It washes well and won't lose shape .
What about the cotton one ?
Were you late for work this morning ?
Yes , I was . I was almost an hour late .
What did you say to your boss ?
I said I was terribly sorry . But he said it was quite all right .
Your boss was really nice .
Is there anything I can do for you ?
Yes , I'd like to buy a color TV .
We carry products from three large manufacturers and some imported ones , too . Do you have a specific model in mind ?
No . Which one do you recommend ?
This one from Sony gives a very sharp picture .
Thank you , but I'd prefer to buy a China-made set .
Which brand do you prefer ?
Sky worth .
Do you like Barry ?
No , not very much . He's too ambitious and dishonest .
I agree . I like his brother Paul . They are not alike .
Yes . They are completely different . Paul is very sociable and much more honest than his brother .
What kind of person do you consider yourself to be ?
I think I'm polite , careful , relaxed and shy .
Oh , I don't think you're shy ! You are always chatting with new people when we go to a party .
Well . Yes , but those people always start talking to me . I never talk to them first . Perhaps I'm not as shy as I think . Anyway , you're certainly not shy !
You're right . I love going out and making new friends .
So , you'll be at my birthday party on Friday ?
What day is today ?
Today is Thursday .
What's the date today ?
Today is May first , 2003 .
Oh , today's International Labour Day . Is it our working day ?
I'm quite upset ! I want a new room and a refund for tonight .
Forgive me , sir , I haven't been told what the problem is .
I'm about to be swept away by millions of cockroaches !
My apologies , sir . We'll transfer you to a new room at once and give you a full refund .
Thank you . I didn't want to have to take this to court .
Oh , hey , Keri ! You cook , right ! You're a pretty good cook .
I'm OK .
I want to make an omelet , so actually this is really silly , I've never made one before . How do you make an omelet ?
Well , I can teach you how I make them , which is the same way my father and grandmother make them , which is a little special .
OK . Yeah ! Yeah !
First you take some eggs and crack them in a bowl , and whisk them up , quite , so they're quite high and fluffy , and in a hot pan , and you need a pan that's that's kind of small , that the sides go up at an angle . You put some oil and heat it up , so it's quite hot , and then you take your whipped up eggs , or whisked up eggs , and pour them into the pan , and as it's cooking , if you take a spatula , and push the bottom layer of the egg , to the side , to the sides , and then to the middle , so the uncooked egg gets to the bottom of the pan .
Oh , OK . Wow !
OK . And keep doing that until most of the egg is cooked so you should have a nice thick omelet and then flip it over , you'll only have to cook that side lightly . Put your fillings on the top and fold it over and let it sit just long enough to melt the cheese .
T he nineteenth of June is my birthday . I'm planning to have a small party . Could you come ?
I need some flowers for my wife . It's her birthday .
Very well . We have some fresh red roses .
How much are the roses ?
$ 20 per dozen .
That sounds like a good deal .
Yes , they're on sale today .
I'll take a dozen .
Splendid . Will there be anything else ?
No , the roses will be fine .
Are you through with your meal ?
Yes , I am . Could I have the bill , please ?
Here is your bill . 150 yuan in all .
Do you accept check ?
No , I'm sorry we don't . We accept credit cards and cash .
Well , I'd like to pay by cash .
OK . ( A few minutes later ) Sorry to keep you waiting . Here is your change .
Thanks .
It ' s over .
What is over ?
Our relationship . I mean my friend and I ...
Any reasons ?
The cause is another boy .
What's wrong , Frank ?
I didn't make the soccer team .
Is there a vacant table for two now ?
Yes , sir , let me show you the table . This way please .
Well , we would like to sit over there . Is that all right ?
Could you tell me your education background ?
Sure . Where shall I begin ?
Where did you go to university ?
I went to the university of Ohio , in America .
What degree did you get ?
I got a bachelor ' s degree .
What was your major ?
I majored in English and minored in Chinese .
What was you G . P . A ?
I graduated with honors . I had a 3 . 9 .
Do you plan to pursue further education ?
Yes . I ' d like to obtain a master ' s degree in international relations .
When do you think you will do that ?
After I have 3-4 years of work experience .
Nick ! How ' s it going ?
Oh , hey ...
What are you doing in this neighbourhood ? Do you live around here ?
Actually , my office is right around the corner .
It was great to meet you last week at the conference . I really enjoyed our conversation about foreign investment .
Yeah , yeah , it was really interesting . You know , I'm in a bit of a hurry , but here ' s my card . We should definitely meet up again and continue our discussion .
Sure , you still have my contact details , right ?
You know what , this is really embarrassing , but your name has just slipped my mind . Can you remind me ?
Hi Mark .
Oh , hi Stacy .
How was your summer vacation ?
I worked over the summer at a restaurant . Have to make tuition money , right ? What did you do ?
I took summer school . I withdrew from two of my classes last year so I wanted to make them up .
So are you officially a junior now ?
Yeah . And I have 5 credits to spare . I only needed to take 10 credits over the summer , but I took 15 because the price was the same .
That makes sense . So where is Nicole ?
She dropped out of school completely .
Really ? Why ?
She worked at a startup company as an intern and since the business did well , they asked her if she wanted to work full time .
Wow . She's so lucky . She doesn't have a degree and she already has a job .
It sounds good now , but I'm traditional . I want the degree , so I wouldn't have accepted the offer .
Do you know how much they are paying her ?
You look really nice today .
Thank you . I just got this outfit the other day .
Really , where did you get it ?
I got it from Macy's .
It's really nice .
Thanks again . You look nice today , too .
Thank you . I just got these shoes today .
Really ? What kind of shoes are they ?
These are called All Star Chuck Taylors .
I really like those . How much did they cost ?
They were about forty dollars .
I've heard that Tom is going to move .
What ? Are you sure about that ?
Yeah , he is going to move next month .
Where is he going ?
He is going to Canada and to live with his son .
What a pity !
Why did you say that ? It's a good thing for him to live with his son .
I know that . But it's pity for us to lose such a good neighbour . You know I always appreciate Tom's company .
Hello , do you remember me ? I bought some vases from you yesterday .
eyes , you sent them to New York , right ?
That's right . I thought I'd come back to buy a few more souvenirs .
What did you have in mind ?
Well , first , I'd like to buy a few postcards . My sister used to always send a postcard to herself whenever she went anywhere . I want to do that , too .
We have plenty of postcards to choose from here . The same designs can be found on these posters .
Posters are difficult to travel with . I think I'll just buy the postcards . I heard that you might also have some of the masks that are made in Venice .
Yes , we do . They're on the wall behind you .
How much do they cost ?
The prices are clearly marked on the back of each mask . Would you like me to get one down for you to look at ?
Yes , I think I'd like the green mask in the middle .
Here you go .
I'll take it , I'd also like to buy some chocolate .
Are you looking for some homemade chocolate as a gift ?
Yes , it's my girlfriend's birthday today and she loves chocolate .
We've got plenty to choose from here .
What do you think of his behaviour yesterday ?
He's a sad dog . He came to the wedding in jeans !
Are you free this afternoon ?
I'm afraid I'm going to the gym for a workout .
How long have you been there ?
I began to went there last month .
Is there any change ?
Well , I think I'm in better condition now .
Really ? Is it tiring ?
It was at the beginning . You just need to keep it up .
I want to go there , too . Can I ?
Have you got the medicine yet ?
Yes , I've been given so much , that I simply don't know what to do with it all .
Well , these are for internal use . You take a packet each time . Four times a day .
What about these ?
They're painkillers . You take one tablet when you feel a pain , but not more than once within four hours .
I hear that you are going to participate in the dinner party tonight . Seen from what you are dressing , you really look like a fox .
Excuse me . I need to refill this prescription .
It says on the bottle here that you can have two refills .
Yes , I need to refill it today .
Alright . I'm sorry , Miss . According to our file , this prescription has already been refilled twice .
I was worried about that . I couldn't remember if I had it refilled twice yet or not .
Well , it looks like you have . You will need to see your doctor to get a new prescription .
Listen . This is an emergency . I tried to call my doctor , but he is out of town . So I can't see him in time . I need this medicine . It is for skin condition . I've run out . Can you just refill it once more ?
I'm sorry , Miss . We can't do it . We must follow the prescription . And this prescription has run out .
But I need it . Please . Refill it for me just this once . I can go to the doctor around ten days from now . Then I'll have another prescription .
Miss , I understand your problem . But it is against the law for us to sell certain medicines without a prescription . It ' s the law . I can't do anything about it . We never sell medicine unless we have a proper prescription . Never .
But I have a prescription . I just need more of it .
A prescription must be valid . It cannot be an expired prescription . I'm sorry , Miss . It's the law . You will have to find another doctor who will prescribe this for you .
Oh , it will be so expensive ! I have a special medical plan , and I can only see one doctor . It will cost me a lot of money to see another doctor .
Miss , I just can't help you on this . I'm a pharmacist , not a doctor . And there are other customers I need to help now . I know it is frustrating when this happens . But there is nothing I can do about it . I'm sorry .
This is ridiculous ! In Taiwan , it is much easier to get medicine when I need it .
Come on , Jenny , we are heading our way to the Opera House .
I am dead tired and I can't walk any further .
Oh , I am sorry , I thought you were not .
Why don't we stop and have a rest here ?
I would like to return this pair of shoes .
Do you have a sales slip ?
Here it is .
Sorry , things on sale are not allowed to be refunded or exchanged .
Oh , but this pair of shoes are a bit too tight . Could I change them for something bigger ?
Tom set the whole country by the ears with his discovery .
He is really terrific !
I hear scientists in the US have discovered a new AIDS vaccine .
Does it work ?
I don ' t know . The report says it is better than the old vaccines .
Don ' t count on it . I think the best way to prevent AIDS is to keep yourself clean by having clean sex and keeping a regular sex partner .
so , are you enjoying the performance so far ?
well , the costumes and the set are marvellous , but the acting is a bit stiff . What do you think ?
I think you're being a little critical . The actor in the lead role is fantastic . I suppose the chorus could be a bit better , though .
do you know anyone in the play ?
actually , the woman playing Ophelia is a past classmate of mine .
really ? Is that why you wanted to come to the play ?
that's only part of it . I absolutely adore this director . Every play he works on turns out great .
so you've seen other plays that he's directed ?
quite a few actually . By the way , after the play , there's always a big party for the cast and their friends . My friend has invited us . Do you want to go ?
sure , I'd love to meet the cast ! Have you ever been in a play ?
I've never had a part in a play before , but I used to be a part of the stage crew in high school .
what did you do ?
I helped build the sets and find props for the plays . What about you ?
I once helped out with costumes , but I didn't enjoy it very much .
why not ?
I spent over three weeks sewing sequins on a coat .
Would you mind if I ask your health status ?
I just had a complete physical examination and passed with flying colors .
That is good . We hope each of our future employees will be healthy and happy .
Mom , I'm ready for school .
Don't forger to come straight home after school .
I know , mom .
Have you got everything ?
Let me tell you what happened to my homework .
OK , go ahead--what is the excuse THIS time ?
Actually , I did it , but then it got lost .
Could you have gotten it done at another time ?
Yes , I could .
You have never missed an assignment before--when will you be making this one up ?
I'll make it up early next week .
That would work , but don't let it happen again .
I'll try .
Did you have any hobbies ?
Yes , reading is my hobby .
What kind of books do you like to read most ?
Many kinds of books . When I was a child in elementary school , I enjoyed reading fables and science fiction . When I became to a teenager at middle school , I was interested in detective mystery stories . Now I like reading romance stories .
Are you in love ?
Why ?
People say only those that are in love like to read romance stories .
Mr . Brown is in hospital again .
Is he ? He ' s never been healthy .
When I went to see him yesterday , he looked rather pale .
I'm phoning about the factory visit next Friday . What should I do when I arrive ?
Park in the visitors ' car park in front of the factory and then go to the gatehouse . It's directly opposite the entrance to the car park . The Security people will sign you in and give you a visitor's badge . My assistant will come down to meet you .
I am very interested in a new apartment near the Taxing Plaza , but the price is very high , I really can't afford it .
How much is it for each square meter ? How large is the apartment ?
It's 7500 yuan per square meter , and I really like the one with three bedrooms and a large living room . Its total area is about 80 square meters .
That surely will cost you a lot of money . Are you going to make a full payment ?
Do you think I am rich enough to make it ? I am thinking about buying the apartment by installments . The real estate agency says if I pay a 25 % down payment , I can move in at once .
There are some things I miss . But I love Chinese food . And I think the people in Taiwan are really hospitable . Besides , I grew up in Los Angeles , so I'm used to living in crowded places . Why are you going to America ?
I'm going to New York to visit my sister . She is in art school . I've never been to New York before . I'm kind of scared .
Why ?
Well , I know a lot of people have guns there . I think maybe it isn't too safe .
Don't worry about it . Your sister lives there . She probably knows the places in town you shouldn't go . It ' s true there are some dangerous places in big American cities . But if your sister lives there , she must know the city pretty well already .
Yes , I'm not really scared . Maybe only a little .
Don't believe what you see on TV . You will have a good time in New York . What things do you want to see ?
I want to see the museums , and I want to shop a lot .
The museums are excellent . And the shopping ! Well ! I'm sure you'll spend a lot of money there .
Good morning , Mr Croft .
Good morning , nurse . I want to see the dentist , please .
Do you have an appointment ?
No , I don't .
Is it urgent ?
Yes , it is . It's very urgent . I feel awful . I have a terrible toothache .
Can you come at 10 am on Monday , April 24th ?
I must see the dentist now , nurse .
The dentist is very busy at the moment . Can you come at 2 PM ?
That's very late . Can the dentist see me now ?
I'm afraid that he can't , Mr Croft . Can't you wait till this afternoon ?
I don't know how John can put up with his son , who fools around without working .
He's out of John's hands . Nothing he can do about such a black sheep .
What are you grinning about ?
Stephany said she would go out with me .
I thought mom said no dating till you are 16 .
That ' s in one month , and besides , this is a group date with all of our friends .
All of your friends , what are you planning to do ?
We ' re going fishing .
What a party ! I hope you don ' t expect the girls to fish .
A friend of mine has been taking an online career planning course these days . He told me the other day he has learned a lot from it . He recommended me to subscribe to it . What do you say ?
I think it is good if we know enough about career planning . We will make wiser choices . What else did he tell you about it ?
Well , just something in general , like several key steps in planning career and how to set specific and tenable goals .
Sounds practical ! To be honest , sometimes I feel puzzled about my future career . I am not sure if this job suits me the best though I work very hard on it and enjoy being a hard worker . I have always wanted to try something else and learn some new skills .
Making a decision to start over is not an easy thing to do . It seems that you need this course more than I do . I love my current job . If I take this course , I hope to learn some tricks to get myself more organized at work . If they can give suggestions about how to boost work relationships , that will be great . I need these to improve my current work performance .
My son came home from three years in the navy .
It was a real red letter day for you .
Have we sold out all the newspapers for today ?
Yes . What a good job we have done !
Why are so many extra gifts left here ?
Many customers didn't want them .
How about giving them to that old man ?
Good idea .
By the way , do you think it's a good idea to give free gifts to attract customers ?
I'm not sure , but still it did attract a large crowds today .
I think it should be more useful to hand out some fliers which is also cheaper .
But people can just throw them into the trash can as they turn around .
That's true .
Anyway , let's just finish out job and get back home .
Good Morning , sir . What can I do for you ?
Yes , I'd like to change Australian dollars for RIB .
How much do you want to change ?
I am not sure . What's the rate today ?
It's 1 Australian dollar to 6 . 1 Yuan RIB .
What was the rate yesterday ?
The rate was 1 Australia dollar to 6 . 5 Yuan yesterday .
Oh , the rate goes down .
It does , sir . Do you still want to have it changed now ?
Let me think ... Will the rate still go down tomorrow ?
I don't know , sir . But it won't change much .
Well , I want to change 1000 Australian dollars for RIB .
Okay . Please sign here in this form .
OK .
Here is the 6,100 RIB .
Good afternoon , Mrs . Brown . I've come to see Mr . Brown .
Good afternoon , Mr . Green .
Is he in ?
I'm sorry , but he's not in , he's gone out on business .
Oh ! I just drop in on him for a chat .
Please come in for a cup of coffee .
Can I get some medicine to help me ?
For your high blood pressure , we have several choices of medications .
What types of drugs can I try ?
Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic that helps you with water retention .
What about side effects from that medication ?
Most people have no side effects . You will have to make sure that you drink plenty of liquids with this medication .
Do I only need to take that one drug ?
I am going to add a second drug for now , Lisinopril , which is an ACE inhibitor .
What can I expect when I take that medication ?
What can I do for you ?
I wish to buy a diamond ring .
How many carats diamond do you want ?
Two carats .
Is this one suit for you ?
No , it seems too old-fashioned .
What about this ?
Let me try it on , it's too small for me , haven't you got any larger ones ?
Yes , try this one please .
This fits me well , how much is it ?
3,500 yuan .
Who did the stupid thing ?
It must be Kate .
Could I speak to you for a minute ?
What do you want to speak to me about ?
I want to talk about this year ' s election .
Oh , you do ?
I am volunteering for the campaign .
What made you decide to volunteer ?
I want to be a part of history .
Good for you .
Do you plan on voting ?
I will be voting .
You should try and make it early to your polling place .
Dad , how can we get to the zoo ?
We can take a bus there .
Does this bus go there ?
I think so .
Let's step in , Dad .
No , it's too crowded .
Dad . Here comes another bus .
Fine . Let's get on . Oh , no , Judy ! Get off the bus quickly !
Why ? Dad ?
Professor , I've handed in my paper . Did you read it ?
Yes . You've done a good job . But there's one thing . You should narrow down your topic .
What about water pollution instead of pollution ?
Look what you've done !
I'm very sorry , sir . I'll bring you a cloth immediately .
Yes , and hurry up !
I'd like to apologize for my carelessness . May I clean it up for you ?
No , I'll do it myself .
Here is my card , sir . Could you send me the cleaning bill and I will refund the cost to you ?
I should think so , too !
I'm very sorry to have caused you this trouble .
Yes , and please be more careful in the future !
I will , sir . I'm really very sorry .
Hi , I need broadband for my computer .
No problem . Just plug the Ethernet cable into your computer , and you're good to go .
That's a problem . My laptop has no Ethernet port , it's wireless only .
Hmm . Well , we have some alternatives , if you're interested .
Go ahead . I'm all ears .
We have a computer lab on the first floor .
That's great ! How much is it ?
It's absolutely free to guests . Except for printing , of course .
Okay . What about the other alternatives ?
You could use your wireless right here in our lobby .
Yes , that's the ticket ! And if I need to print something there ?
Watch out ! You're too close to the fire place .
Don't worry , but my clothes are made of leathers .
Really ? That's wonderful !
Thank you for your warning .
Not at all .
Dad , where is the Book Building ?
I'm looking . Can you still remember what the conductor said ?
She said that when we get off the bus , the Book Building is right by the bus stop .
But I don't see it .
Oh , Dad , look at the sign , please !
Oh , my god ! We get off at the wrong stop . I'm so sorry , honey .
OK , Dad , it happens .
It's my fault . So what can we do now ? Walk ?
Come on , I'm too tired !
OK , you promise don't tell your mother about it , we'll take a taxi .
Sure , I promise .
How may I help you ?
I want to return this video .
Is that all you need ?
I also need to check this magazine out .
You ' re not allowed to do that .
I don ' t understand .
It ' s our policy .
What can I check out ?
Only books or videos .
I need this magazine .
You will have to read it here .
Many people play sports in China , don't they ?
Yes . Table tennis is probably the most popular .
I expect all Chinese can play table tennis .
Most anyway .
Do you like playing table tennis ?
Yes , I like . But I can't play it well .
Are indoor sports popular ?
Basketball and swimming are very popular .
Really ? I like playing basketball , too .
We can play together if you are free .
The tranquility of the night , the chirping of some insects , everything is so natural !
I felt as if I had been in a different world .
How many kinds of secretaries work here ?
There are 3 secretarial categories here . One is receptionist , one is junior secretary , and the other is senior secretary .
What sort of duties do you expect ?
Hi I came in on flight 513 . Everyone else took their luggage off the conveyor belt , but mine didn ' t seem to be there .
Let me check the computer . Uh-oh , Looks like your luggage is on its way to Paris .
You ' re kidding . What am I going to do ?
Well , we can give you this lovely shaving kit and call you the minute your luggage arrives here . Just leave us a contact number .
You can reach me at 13661306917 .
Thank you . I am terribly sorry about this . It very rarely happens . We do have a sophisticated tracking system , so I know we will find it soon . But we apologize for the inconvenience .
That ' s ok . There wasn ' t anything important in there anyway . The shaving kit more than makes up for my lost luggage .
Wow ! I have been working here for 15 years and you ' re the first person to accept a lost luggage situation cheerfully .
Can you exchange this for US dollars , please ?
Just fill out this form , will you ?
OK . Here .
How would you like it ?
Five tens , five fives and the rest in ones , please .
Hello . This is Lucy from ABC Company . Is this Monica ?
Yes .
I am calling to inform you that you have passed the first two rounds of interview . Could you please come for the final round ? It is scheduled on the morning of next Monday 10AM in the HR manager office .
Thank you for calling me . I will be there on time .
Ok , see you then , bye .
May , do you mind helping me prepare for the picnic ?
Sure . Have you checked the weather report ?
Yes . It says it will be sunny all day . No sign of rain at all . This is your father's favorite sausage . Sandwiches for you and Daniel .
No , thanks Mom . I'd like some toast and chicken wings .
Okay . Please take some fruit salad and crackers for me .
Done . Oh , don't forget to take napkins disposable plates , cups and picnic blanket .
All set . May , can you help me take all these things to the living room ?
Yes , madam .
Ask Daniel to give you a hand ?
Hey ! I have a surprise for you .
What is it ?
Open this card and read .
I'd like to purchase a pan .
Is there any particular size that you want ?
Well , I cook a lot of big meals .
What do you think of this one ? It's a 16 " pan .
Yes , that's the right size , but it's so heavy .
Well , look at our aluminum pan . It's much lighter .
Yes , this is very light . But the handle is also aluminum .
No problem . Look at this one . Same pan , but with a lightweight wooden handle .
Great . This is exactly what I was looking for . I'll buy it .
I think you'll love this pan . Do you want to pay with cash ?
Yes . Oh , wait a second , please . What about a lid ?
Accounting , this is Mike .
Mike , this is Leo in Sales . I was just calling to confirm our meeting tomorrow . Are we still on ?
Goodness ! It ' s been so long I actually forgot . Let me see ... yes , it is on my calendar .
OK . See you at your office at 2:30 .
Where's Bill ? The ambassador is already here . The meeting is set to start at 9 am .
He's late again . Traffic is probably holding him up . You know , he commutes from the suburbs . It's not easy commuting every day . We should cut him some slack .
Even though the traffic is bumper-to-bumper out there , I don't think it's heavy traffic that makes Bill late . He takes the train , remember ?
Oh , that's right . Well , the train shouldn't be late . That means there is only one explanation ... Bill must have overslept .
Well , to be fare , since he's coming all the way from Lancaster , he's got to get up much earlier than the rest of us . He must get start on his commute about six thirty , no telling what time he actually gets up .
That's right , because he's got to get to the train station from his house , then take the blue line into the city , then switch trains to the red line . In all , the trip's got to take more than 2 hours .
Why doesn't he just drive to work ?
Good afternoon , CCL press . Jennisse speaking , How can I help you ?
Good afternoon , I'm looking for Mr . Alert Li .
Oh , I'm sorry . Mr . Li is in a meeting right now . Can I take a message ?
Sure . This is Nigel Smith his personal banker . Could you ask him to return my call ?
Nigel Smith . Does he have your number , Mr . Smith ?
It's 2781703 1 .
2781703 1 . Sure . I'll make sure he gets the message .
Hi , John . What brings you to town ?
Hi , Mary . Lily wanted me to buy her some things for the party .
What do you think of the traffic today ?
It ' s pretty bad .
Yeah . You can say that again . It ' s noisy too .
Hello , Jack here .
Hello , Jack . It ' s Mary . What are you doing in your office ?
I ' m working . I often work late on Thursday . I ' m busy this week .
Would you like to come and have dinner with us on Friday ?
Tomorrow ? No , I am afraid I won ' t be able to . I ' m going on business to Birmingham .
What about Saturday ?
Sorry , I never go out on Saturday evening . I always watch football on Saturday evening .
Will you come round next Tuesday ?
Next Tuesday ? Just a moment . It will be the twenty-first of May ? Oh , dear . Hum , I promised my aunt I ' ll be at her birthday party .
What do you say next Wednesday then ?
Let me see . Yes , Mary . Let ' s make it next Wednesday .
Okay . Bye .
Hey , what's the matter ?
It doesn't matter . I just feel a little dizzy .
Are you sure that this has nothing to do with sleep ?
Hello , BCD Company , can I help you ?
Hello , may I speak to Mrs Smith ?
This is Mrs Smith , may I have your name ?
This is Sun , and I interviewed with you yesterday .
Hello , Mr . Sun .
I am calling to thank you for giving me the interview for the Sales Manager position yesterday .
You are welcome , Mr . Sun .
I really enjoyed meeting with you .
You certainly made a good impression on me , as well .
I am very interested in this position .
We'll be making the decision by the end of this week and we'll contact you as soon as possible .
Well , thank you for your time and consideration again .
Excuse me , I want to know the price of your CPU .
Glad to tell you . The price of CPU is 300 dollars .
It's rather too high . If you can make it cheaper , we will be able to place large orders continuously .
If you order a large amount , we can give you a discount .
Well , can you explain it to me ?
The price of CPU is 260 dollars above 1,000 Units .
Can you reduce more ?
I'm sorry , but to be frank , considering exploiting the market in your country , we have already supplied you at very low preferential price .
In that case , we have to stop ordering if a reduction can't be made . Please reconsider .
It is so hard to deal with .
If you can give us a more reduction , We'd be able to give you an order on the spot .
Hi , taxi .
Get in , please . Where to , madam ?
The international airport , please . I have to be there by 8
I can't promise anything , but I'll try my best .
Oh , that's my stop . How much do I need to pay ?
That'll be 10 dollars , please .
Excuse me , how do I get to the Forbidden City ?
Follow this road and turn right at the second intersection . It'll be right there .
Is it far ?
No , it should only take you about 15 minutes by foot .
Susan has got the cancer of stomach .
How terrible ! This is quite unexpected !
Yesterday when I went to hospital to see her , you cannot imagine how greatly surprised when I saw her .
What happened ?
Here's the dress you wanted it to be made .
Oh , dear !
What's the matter ?
It's not what I asked for .
What's wrong with it ?
It's not the right material . Or the right color . I can't possibly accept it .
It's a lot of work running a campaign , isn't it !
I had no idea when I volunteered to assist governor Brown with this campaign what I was getting myself into .
Hang in there . The hardest part is just about over .
How Ay years have you been working with him ?
About 15 . I've seen him work hard for a lot of good changes .
It's easier doing this kind hard work when I know that I trust the man behind the posters .
Did you know we're trying to talk him into considering a presidential campaign ?
Is everything ready for the big family barbecue tomorrow ?
Yep . The steaks and chicken are marinated and I also bought hamburger buns .
We should also cook a couple dozen hot dogs and kebabs .
Yeah , good idea . We can put some lawn furniture outside next to the grill . I also set up the tent outside so we can hide from the sun if it gets too hot .
Great ! I asked Grace to bring cups and serviettes as she is also bringing two big coolers for the beers .
Where are we going to visit today ?
We are going to the national park .
Really ? I have heard there are many famous national park in the US , which one exactly ?
The Yellow Rock National Park .
We have one day to visit the big city , can you give us some advice ?
Yes , you can take a limo , a tour bus or just walk .
I don't think we can visit the city in one day just by walking . How much does the limo cost ?
You look pale , Paul . What ' s wrong ?
I've got a headache .
I'm sorry to hear that . Anything I can do for you ?
How long have you been living in New York ?
Oh , about two years now .
Where do your parents live ?
They still live in Shanghai where I was born .
Do you write or call them very much ?
When can I know whether I am accepted or not ?
I think we'll send you a letter next week , if you are wanted , or we may give you a call . By the way , have you got a telephone ?
Yes , my office phone number is 373 ... 36 .
What's the best time to call you , then ?
Between four and five in the afternoon .
Thank you for coming , Miss Yang .
Hi , do you know a place that sells cheap cashmere sweaters ?
An outlet carries cheap cashmere sweaters .
That's a good idea !
I've always had good luck at outlets .
Thank you for the suggestion .
What's your weight ?
150 pounds .
Do put yourself on a diet , otherwise you'll be too fat .
You didn ' t show up in the morning meeting . What ' s up ?
Well , I just came in . I worked overtime yesterday . Some statistics and very important documents seemed to be inaccurate . So I stayed to double check them . The boss was aware of my very late work of last night . So before he left office , he told me I could come one hour later this morning .
But you still look a little bit tired . What time did you leave ?
It was around 1 thirty in the morning . I guess I didn ' t fall asleep till 3 because those numbers were involving in my mind . I just couldn ' t stop thinking about them .
That ' s normal after a tense work evening . Working overtime is not always a pleasant experience for me either . Once , I worked overtime everyday for a whole week including the weekend . That really broke my rhythm and I got a little sick later .
Working at weekend is something I hate to do most .
Shall we have two tickets for for seven thirty ?
Yes , Would you like to have the seats in the front or at the back ?
Excuse me . Can you take me to the airport ?
Which airport , ma'am ?
Kennedy Airport .
All right , ma'am . Need any help with your luggage ?
What is my schedule for today , Miss Liu ?
Yes , you are supposed to meet the president at ten fifteen this morning . Then , you have a lunch appointment with Mr . Clark . And this afternoon at three you are scheduled to speak before a group of seminar participants .
Do you have the meeting report ready ?
What's the special today ?
' All-you-can-eat ' dinner special .
I don't like to .
Do you care for seafood ?
Yes , I'm very fond of seafood .
Which seafood do you prefer ?
I'd like to have red cooked sea cucumber .
Is there anything else you would like to have ?
Bring me an assorted cold dish , please .
Would you care for beverage ?
No , thanks . I'm fine .
What would you like to drink ?
It is reported that the temperature is going to drop dramatically tonight .
Really ?
Yes . So you'd better dress warmly before you go out .
Welcome home , Peter !
Thanks , honey . It's great to be back .
How do you get along with your boss ?
I had a terrific working relationship with my boss , even though we are very different people . Because I've had a number of bosses , I've come to realize that to make things work , you have to understand what's important to your boss . Then you have to do everything you can to support him ( or her ) . It's natural to think about your own agenda first , but if you help your boss , Ifs likely to move your agenda ahead at the same time . My last boss was great in that regard , she appreciated my efforts and rewarded me when I helped her accomplish her goals .
What do you think is important in your work ?
What does your friend Jim do ?
He is a teacher , but he makes a little money on the side by repairing cars in his free time .
He can repair cares ? I cannot believe it .
I wish it was a nicer day today .
That is true . I hope it doesn't rain .
It wouldn't rain in the middle of the summer .
It wouldn't seem right if it started raining right now .
It would be weird if it started raining in ninety degree weather .
Any rain right now would be pointless .
That's right , it really would be .
I want it to cool down some .
I know what you mean , I can't wait until it's winter .
Winter is great . I wish it didn't get so cold sometimes though .
I would rather deal with the winter than the summer .
I feel the same way .

Have you signed up to join the company ' s Christmas party ?
Sure , I have . Will you join ?
I will . You know , as a newcomer , I think it might be a good opportunity to get to know people from the other departments of our company in a more relaxed atmosphere .
You are right . Our company ' s Christmas party has always been an amazing occasion for everybody to relax and get to know each other better . It is also a time to make new friends and do some networking .
I hope that it is not a formal one when the boss is there .
No , it will not be formal at all . It is a fun time . You will love the game show . Please dress casually . Usually there is an over abandon of drinks , so be careful with that .
Do you like the apartment so far ?
I see a problem .
What ' s the problem ?
I noticed that the faucet in the kitchen is leaking .
That ' s no big deal .
It ' s going to be a problem when my water bill comes .
What do you want me to do about it ?
I would like you to fix the problem .
I won ' t be able to do that right now .
Well , I won ' t be able to rent the apartment until the problem is fixed .
Fine , I ' ll have it fixed for you .
Excuse me . May I take a picture of you and your little boy ?
What ' s it for ?
It ' s for a book .
Oh , that ' s a nice idea . Well , it ' s fine if you take our picture .
Are you going to the annual party ? I can give you a ride if you need one .
Thanks a lot . That's the favor I was going to ask you for .
Is your city a historical place ?
Not rally . 200 years ago , it was just a small insignificant village .
How did it grow into such a large place ?
Large deposits of coal were found nearly and so many industries located themselves here . The village quickly grew into a key industrial centre .
As the city grew , it must have absorbed many village nearby .
Yes , it did . The names of those village survive as the names of parts of the city .
I see . Are there any building more than 200 years old in your city ?
Oh , yes . Several of the buildings from the villages still survive . Many of them were inns for travelers and today survive as pubs . There was a castle near one village , so our city has a castle too .
How do we do timesheets here ?
They are actually fairly straightforward . Do you know where the blanks are kept ?
Yes , I already have one .
OK , well after you take one out of that second drawer , you put your name on the top . Do you see ?
I am kind of confused .
Next you fill in all of your hours for each day and total them . Do you know how to show time on a 24 - hour clock ?
I'm not quite sure .
Midnight is zero and when you put the minutes in , make sure that you show them with a dot followed by the minutes . Do you understand ?
No , I have no idea what you are talking about .
It's easy , just write in the hours , total it , sign it , and put it in the box .
Thanks for your help .
How's it going ?
I'm doing well . How about you ?
Never better , thanks .
So how have you been lately ?
I've actually been pretty good . You ?
I'm actually in school right now .
Which school do you attend ?
I'm attending PCC right now .
Are you enjoying it there ?
It's not bad . There are a lot of people there .
Good luck with that .
There are advertisements everywhere here in hong kong . The city is so bright at night , with all the neon signs .
I like it . It makes the city feel alive . I like all the different colors and I like the billboards with eye-catching pictures and slogans .
I think that there are too many of them . I think that companies spend far too much money on advertising . They should have lower prices instead . Then they would see more .
I see your point , but if companies didn ' t spend money on advertising , no one would hear about their products . I agree that some form of advertising can be annoying . I don ' t like it when people try to give you leaflets with information about products you have no intention of buying .
I really hate receiving spam . I also dislike having to listen to advertisements and jingles when they are broadcast in stores or on the subway .
Yes , that annoys me too . With billboards , you can look away , but with broadcasts , you can ' t avoid them . I like the way that advertising agencies use comedy in their campaign .
I like that too . I don ' t like the way that advertising campaign often tell you if you don ' t buy a certain product , you ' re not cool or modern or efficient or something .
Good evening Ms . Jackson . Fancy meeting ' you here .
Hi , Clyde . This is my friend , Wen . She's visiting from UCLA .
Clyde Smith . Pleasure to meet you . May I treat you ladies to dinner ?
OK ! I was just tellin ' Wen about African-American food .
You weren't going to tell her about chitterlings and hog maws , were you ? Well , my Creole ancestors never ate that stuff . We have refined French tastes .
I'm here for my appointment .
What can I do for you today ?
I have an issue with my schedule .
Tell me the problem .
I have two classes on here that are at the same time .
Oh , I see .
Can you change that for me ?
Do you still want both classes ?
Yes , I would like to keep both classes .
I'll try to change one to a different day .
There ' re traffic jams everywhere .
I think something must be done .
Yeah . We should have more roads built .
Wow ! That ' s a pretty dress , but it ' s too expensive .
Yeah , it is ! Why is it so expensive ?
It ' s because of good quality and the fine design .
I don ' t think it ' s worth that money .
Were you able to contact the owners about my counter-offer ?
Yes , please have a seat , and we ' ll discuss this right now .
I hope that they accepted the counter-offer .
The counter-offer was acceptable to them , but they want you to pay for the home inspection .
Will the home inspection cost me a lot ?
It can cost as little as five hundred dollars and as much as one thousand dollars .
Is it my choice as to who inspects this house ?
Yes , it is your choice as you are paying for it . Make a wise investment and choose the best inspector you can find .
How long until you contact the sellers with my acceptance ?
Would you do me a favor ?
Do you like singing ?
Yes , I do .
Let's go to a ETV tonight .
But I can't sing it well .
It doesn't matter . No one will laugh at you .
OK , I'Il go with you . When shall we go ?
What about six ?
It's too early . Let's make it seven , OK ?
John , if you don't mind , I'd like to ask you a personal question .
I don't mind at all .
All right . Are you married ?
To tell you the truth , I'm not married . I'm still single .
Then , when do you plan to get married ?
Here is the document you asked for this morning .
Oh , you are so efficient . I thought you might give it to me tomorrow . Thanks .
You ' re welcome . You know , these days I have been reflecting on my biggest weakness procrastination . The more I think about it , the more I hate myself for being so disorganized . I decided to change the situation as soon as possible . Otherwise I will be more regretful later .
This is encouraging news , good for you ! What is your solution , then ?
The most useful method is to make plans and set priorities . It helps me to manage time well and get the most important things done at the first place .
I wonder if we can change to Channel 26 .
Why ? I'd like to see what's on that channel .
A lecture on how to make stir-fried ginger beef , not the boxing you like .
Hi , Sven , can you help me ? Could you hold the end of the tape measure , please ?
Of course , where do you want me to stand ?
Just there by the door . I need to measure the length of this workbench . We're going to replace it . OK - 3 m 47 cm . Let's round it up to 3 m 50 .
I'm glad you're replacing it . We need more space to work on things . How deep will the new workbench be ?
Tell me what size you want and I'll order the wood .
Well , it's about 65 cm at the moment . Could we increase it by about a third ?
Er ... Alison ?
Ohm , hello , Marcia . I was ...
I just wanted to congratulate you ! I mean , it was a good race and you deserve to win .
Well ... thanks , Marcia . It ' s very nice of you to say so . I mean ...
It was that final sprint ! You were great ! Really !
I heard that ben is forming his own band .
It will be a rock and roll band probably . He ' s a very good guitarist .
Can you play a musical instrument ? If you can , he might ask you to join the band .
I can play drums , but I haven ' t played for a while . I ' m not sure I ' d be good enough to play in a band .
I wish I could play a musical instrument . I love music .
Nowadays , you can be a DJ . You can mix dance music . You don't need to be able to play music instrument or thing .
I love to try it , but the instrument is expensive and it was still need to take a lot of practice .
You know , you could probably get a computer program that would help you . You already have a computer , so you could use that to help you mix some music .
What can I do for you ?
I ' m returning these books .
Let me have them .
Here are all of them .
These books are two weeks late .
I didn ' t have time to return them .
You ' re going to have to pay late fees .
How much ?
25 cents a day .
25 cents a day ?
That means 25 cents for each late book .
You can keep these books for only half a month .
May I renew them if I haven't finished reading them ?
Has the chief accepted our plan ?
Not yet . I guess we should send Jim along to talk to the chief since he is such an apple polisher . I am sure he can help .
They got a divorce at last .
It's inevitable . Their love wasbuilt on the sand , and this is why their marriage has landed on the rocks .
You said it . Love but on the sand will soon be on the rocks .
Where did you go yesterday ?
I went to play tennis in the public park .
How often do you play tennis ?
Twice a week . How about you ?
I seldom play tennis . I prefer football and basketball .
But it is very difficult to gather a team of players together .
I usually play with my schoolmates .
Do you like watching football matches ?
Yes , I went to the Than He Sports Center for a football match last Sunday .
It's time for your bath , young lady .
But , Mom , I'm not dirty .
You need a bath every day .
Why ?
Because you don't want to smell bad .
I don't smell bad .
That's what you think .
If I smelled bad , I could smell me .
I can smell you .
I can smell you , too .
That's my perfume .
Lisa wins the first prize in the English speech contest of her college .
Really ? That's really wonderful . I'm so happy for her .
But I always feel disappointed . I have many problems with English learning .
Honey , cheer up .
I feel confused about the grammars .
I'm sure you'll do fine if you try your best .
And my writing is not good . I feel so frustrated .
Be confident , and never give up .
I know that , mom . But sometimes I'm just sad .
Keep your chin up . Remember ? Nothing is impossible to a willing heart .
Good morning , Jerry . How ' s everything ?
Fine , just fine . Thanks .
Doing anything for lunch ?
Are you free tonight ?
Then I must go-you have said it yourself .
No , you must stay ! I swear it , and the oath shall be kept .
I tell you I must go !
Where ?
I have spoken my mind , and can go anywhere now .
I ask you to pass through life at my side-to be my second self and best earthly companion .
How do you like Chinese food ?
It's my favorite .
What other kind of food do you like ?
Jack , you should have known in general the situation of our company now .
Yes , and I am very satisfied with it .
Do you have any other questions ?
Would you please tell me about fringe benefits of the company ?
OK , we will pay insurances for employees after the probationary period .
What do they include ?
Include endowment insurance , medical insurance , unemployment insurance , work-related injury insurance and maternity insurance .
That sounds great .
Employees will also have housing payment reserve funds .
The fringe benefits in your company are excellent , and it's generous of you to offer five insurances and one fund
Do you have other questions ?
I want to know if the staff can get a vacation every year .
The permanent staff can have a paid month-long vacation every year . Besides , they also get chances of free traveling .
I need to get some beef .
Do you know what kind of beef you want ?
I want to get some ground beef .
How many pounds do you need ?
I would like four pounds of ground beef .
What kind of ground beef do you need ?
I would like the extra lean .
Let me go and get that for you .
Thank you very much .
No problem . I'll wrap it up for you now .
Do you love me ?
I ' m very fond of you .
Yes , but do you love me ?
why ? You mean a lot to me .
why didn ' t you answer my question ?
what question ?
Do you love me ? come on , I ' m eager to hear .
you know that I care for you . I---I ' m proud of you .
Don ' t cherish your words , dear .
I need some flowers for my wife because it is her birthday .
We have some fresh red roses .
How much are the roses ?
Twenty dollars per dozen .
That sounds like a good deal .
Yes , that is today's sale price .
I'll take a dozen .
Is there anything else you'd like to get ?
No , the roses will be fine .
How is the college search going ?
It's a huge headache . I have no idea what I want to do .
But don't you want to study music ? Shouldn't it be easy ?
It should be , but there are too many options . My grades are good enough that I have a lot of choices , but after that ...
I know . You have to decide if you want to attend a school in a city or in the country , a big school or a small school , a public or private school ...
Yup , you understand . And my parents are trying to pressure me into going to a Catholic college . They both attended one and think that it combines a good education with good discipline . And the tuition 3 is usually pretty low .
I see . Well , don't forget to talk to the college counselor at the school . He usually gives good advice and can help point you in the right direction . He gave me some information , and next week I'm going to take a look at some of the colleges he recommended .
What's going on here ?
We're waiting in line to get one of Master Li's Chinese couplets . I got one last year and I had good luck all year !
Master Li ? Who's that ?
He's Taipei's most famous calligraphy master ! Quick ! Get in line !
We're going dancing tonight .
Excuse me , do you serve breakfast here ?
Sure , you want a continental one or an American one ?
An American one , please . I am in a hurry .
Hello , can I help you ?
Yes , I wanna buy a skirt .
What color and what style do you like ?
I am not sure .
Well , you can have a look at our skirts hanging there .
Ok , thank you .
I decided to go for this kind of life .
Try to keep cool . It's not an easy take .
I know . I always hope for the best and prepare for the worst .
Okay , Doctor , tell it to me straight .
If you want to live much longer you have to give up smoking .
I've tried before . Everything I've tried doesn't work .
Maybe with the choice of life or death before you , you will find it easier .
May I see that x-ray again ?
See all these black areas ? That's tar built up in your Lungs .
And that is what's causing my shortness of breath .
Hi , Mr . James , what ' s the rush ?
The bank closes in 30 minutes and I need to cash a check .
I can lend you some money .
Thanks . But it ' s necessary for me to buy a TV set .
Can I help you in anyway ?
You can take me to the bank if you want to .
May I help you ?
Yes , I am looking for a coat .
Do you have any style in your mind ?
I have no idea .
I recommend you this one . It's a very popular kind of coat-the most recent thing .
Any chance of using your telephone ?
You ' Ve been using it for two weeks without paying .
I'll try one of these on . ( The customer tries one of the shoes on . ) It's too big . It slides up and down my heel when I walk around .
Well , let's try a size ten . ( He gets another pair and the customer tries a shoe on ) Looks like a perfect fit .
Not really . It pinches my toes .
I'm sure they'll be fine once you break them in .
I don't know ... well , I guess I'll take them , since you don't seem to have anything better .
How do you think the report I wrote ?
Not bad . But there is more room for improvement .
I jumped the gun .
There were some gaps in your report . Please be more sorrow .
I received an E-mail from mother today .
What did she say ?
She missed us and asked when we would go back home .
What's your plan ?
I don't know . Maybe next week . We haven't been to the Great Wall yet .
Right , then you'd better send an E-mail to tell her .
I'd better be going .
So soon ? Why don't you stay a little longer ?
I wish I could , but it's already late .
Oh , it's a pity that you have to leave .
Thank you for a wonderful meal .
How old are you , Su ?
I am seven .
I see , you have seven candles on the cake .
Yes , I am seven . I am a big girl now .
We will have a party here , right ?
I am calling to thank you for giving me the interview for the Sales Manager position yesterday
You are welcome , Mr . Sun .
I really enjoyed meeting with you .
You certainly made a good impression on me as well .
I am very interested in this position .
Jack I hear you have a chance to go to college without taking a test . Is that right ?
The news goes so fast . Ah , yes , I haven't decided yet .
Don't hesitate . That's a very famous university which a lot of students are longing to attain .
Maybe you are right . But the major is not fit for me . I like architecture more than computers .
But this chance is really precious .
Well , I know . So I am thinking now .
I hope you can make a clever choice . Anyway , the opportunities around you are not that By .
What do you think of your teacher ?
He's very strict with us .
And I hear he gives very good lectures .
I'm very annoyed at your disobedience .
But mum , I didn't mess it up .
You should have asked for my opinion before you did it .
Sorry , mum . I won't do it again .
It's nice and bright today , isn't it ?
Yeah . The autumn is marvelous here .
How about winter ?
That's a hard time . The air is cold and damp , and the road is often icy .
It's boring , right ?
Sure .
Do you get much rain during the summer ?
Plenty . We never worry about lack of rainwater in our area .
So you should bring an umbrella often .
Where is that ?
Take me to the airport , please .
Are you in a hurry ?
I have to be there before 1700 .
We'll make it except a jam . You know it's rush hour .
There's an extra ten in it for you if you can get me there on time .
I'll do my best .
Here's twenty dollars .
Do you have small bills ?
No . If you can't break it , keep the change . But can you give me a receipt ?
Hello , Deva , how are you ?
Can't complain . What about you ?
Not bad . Have you heard Wendy divorced her husband ?
I've heard . She looks quite depressed .
Yes . They used to be joined at the hip .
I heard they were just married for 5 months .
Yes , she said they couldn't communicate well with each other and they often argued over trivial things .
Yeah . Mixed marriage is tempting but crisis-ridden .
You said it . You know , they fall in love at first sight and quickly jumped into marriage .
Maybe they were just attracted to each other but too different to be married .
Yeah . We Chinese have quite different lifestyles and values from foreigners .
Definitely . That's why many cross-cultural marriages end in divorce .
We've heard so much about Chinese film stars divorcing foreigners .
Have you anything to declare ?
One bottle of perfume and a watch .
Where did you buy it ?
In Boston .
Do you travel a lot ?
Oh ... I go to see my sister twice a year or so .
Twice a year ? How long has your sister lived in Boston ?
Nearly ten years .
I see , that's a long time . How much was the watch ?
I can't remember , but I've got the receipt somewhere . Would you like to see it ?
Yes , I'd like to see the receipt . Oh ! I see you bough the watch last week .
Yes . Does that mean I'll have to pay duty on it ?
Yes , I'm afraid you will . Altogether on the watch and the perfume you owe me seven pounds .
Ok . Here you are . Is that all right now ?
Yes , that's fine . I hope you enjoyed your stay in Boston ?
Can I help you , sir ?
Yes , I am checking out .
Can I have your key and room number , PLS ?
Room 1419 . Here is my key .
Here is your bill , sir . Could you PLS check it ?
It's all right . Pls charge it to my credit card .
Here you are , sir . You are all set . I hope you enjoyed your stay and that next time you are in town , you will stay with us again .
I will . Where can I leave my luggage ? I really want to leave after lunch .
The bell captain will put it in storage room . When you are ready to leave , you can claim your luggage from him .
I need to buy some fruit .
All the fruit are pretty fresh here .
How much are the pears ?
They're four yuan per kilo .
Give me one kilo of those , please . Do you have any fresh plums ?
Yes , we do . They are eight yuan per kilo .
It's a bit too expensive . We can get it for six yuan in the shop next here .
Take much and you can have them six yuan per kilo .
Sounds reasonable . I'll take three kilos .
OK . It's 22 yuan
Let me get last week's notes .
Yeah , sure , you didn't come to class that day ?
I couldn't come .
Why not ?
I wasn't feeling well .
Here they are .
Thanks a lot ; are these all the notes ?
Oh , no , this is the rest .
Thank you very much .
Watch out , Jenny ! Be careful of the cars .
I'm fine , dad .
Did you get hit ?
No , dad . Can I go there to play ball ?
May I see your passport please ?
Yes . Here it is .
Are you travelling for business or pleasure ?
I'm going to visit some relatives here for several months .
Do you have anything to declare ? Jewellery or cash ?
The only things I brought were some cloths and my notebook computer .
Did you bring any fruits , vegetables , fresh meats or plants into this country ?
You don ' t look so good .
I feel horrible . I think I picked up a bug .
Do you know who you got it from ?
A lot of people in my dorm are sick . Perhaps I picked it up there .
Did you take any cold medication ?
I ' Ve been taking vitamin C and zinc and trying to get some rest .
I think that rest and liquids are what doctors recommend for a cold .
My grandmother swears by hot chicken soup for a cold .
A pharmacist might be able to help you if your home remedies don ' t work .
This is frank speaking , may i ask who is calling ?
This is Jane , I'd like to speak to Mr . Wang , please .
I'm sorry , he is not here at the moment . He has gone to the International Business Center .
When do you expect him back ?
I'm not sure , he didn't say when he wound return . If you'd like . you can leave him a message until he is back to you until the moment it's free .
Yes , thank you . When he gets back , please just let him know that jane called . And i need him to call me back .
Does he have your number ?
Yes , he does . But i give it to you again . 5264453 6
That was 5264453 6 , right ?
Yes , thank you very much .
Do I often have to work overtime ?
Yes , you have to work overtime a lot due to the editing job .
Is there any extra pay for that ?
I was just about to go to bed when the telephone rang last night .
Who was it ?
Kate . She said she was too excited to go to sleep .
She never cares about others .
It ' s true . Guess what we were talking about last night .
Her new boyfriend , right ?
Yeah , how do you know about that ?
What are you going to do for your year abroad , Tim ?
Study study study ! I want to learn a lot .
You ' re going to take courses ?
Yes , I ' m going to take some university courses there .
Sounds hard .
Yes , but I think it ' s probably for the best .
Won ' t you get lonely ?
Hello , I am calling about my cable service .
What's the problem ?
For the past week my cable hasn't been working .
I apologize , but the cable has been down lately .
Do you know when it is going to start working again ?
Give it a couple days , and it should be back on .
Will I still have to pay for the cable while it's not working ?
Since it's not working , I'm going to give you a credit .
So I don't have to pay anything ?
You won't pay anything until your cable starts working again .
Okay , thank you very much for your help .
Congratulations ! Is it a boy or a girl ?
I've got to go to bed . Have to work tomorrow .
OK . Good night , then . Have a good sleep .
You owe $ 36 . 78 .
Here ' s my VISA card .
I ' m sorry , but your card isn ' t working .
What ' s the problem ?
The machine says your card was declined .
It was ?
Do you have another card ?
That ' s my only one .
Maybe you can just pay in cash ?
No cash today .
I guess you won ' t be able to purchase these items today .
Hello . Excuse me . Do you know if there's a Commercial Bank around here ?
Yes , go straight along Beijing Road and turn right .
Straight on , and turn right . Is it far ?
No , it's just a couple of minutes .
Thanks very much .
I've got a headache and sore throat .
How long have you had it ?
It all started the day before yesterday .
I think you've got the flu . There's a lot of it about .
What should I do ?
Excuse me , can I order now , please ?
OK , what would you like ?
I ' d like the lasagna , please .
Sure and which one would you like ?
Mom , look ! My first piggy bank and it still has money in it !
That is a blast from the past .
Remember when I used to beg you to break it so I could go buy ice cream ?
Yes . You sure have come a long way in valuing your hard earned dollars .
Thanks for not giving in to my childhood tantrums , mom .
But what are you going to do with that pig ?
I think I'm going to keep it as a monument to what I've learned about money .
My uncle gave me this bicycle as a birthday present . Look !
I was supposed to meet with you at half past one .
Yes , I see . What did you need to see me about ?
There's a problem with my schedule .
What's the problem ?
Two of my classes occur at the same time .
Well , I can see that's a problem .
Is it at all possible for you to fix that error ?
Yes , I can . Would you still like to have both of these classes ?
I want to keep both of them , if that's possible .
Well , let me find you one of these classes on a different day .
I wonder if you could allow us any discount for this commodity . It's the general practice that wholesalers usually get some discount from manufacturers or suppliers .
As a rule , we don't allow any discount .
But we usually get a discount of 3 % to 5 % from our other suppliers . Actually , some discount on your prices would make it easier for us to promote sales , you know .
Is this the right bus for the Grand Hotel ?
Oh , no . You should take the No . 14 tram .
Where can I take it ?
Hey , Frank , there is that Janet Check .
Wow , what a great burd !
She sure knows how to strut her stuff .
She's a real turn-on our rights .
And look out she's dressed .
Yeah , I noticed . She must be really loaded .
No way . Her old man is rich . He buys her anything she wants .
Lucky her . Anyway , I think that is just as beautiful .
I think you've lost it .
Well , that's my opinion .
I admit that she is much prettier than Kate .
Oh , there is no comparison . Now we are talking but ugly .
Hello , what can I do for you today ?
Well , I ' Ve got a terrible stomach-ache and I keep needing the toilet .
I see . Well , with those symptoms maybe you ' Ve got food poisoning . What have you eaten recently ?
Well , I went to a seafood restaurant last night and I ate lots of oysters .
Hmm . It may be those then , especially if they were raw . Well , I ' ll give you these tablets and you should feel fine by tomorrow .
Hi , Dave . This is Zina .
Zina ? Zina the Snake ?
I got your e-mail a couple of months back .
Yeah ? Which one was that ?
The one that said , You're a creep . From me you won't hear another peep . I hope you wreck your jeep .
Hi , Ann . I was wondering if you are free tomorrow night ?
Well , George . I guess I am . Why do you ask ?
I've just gotten a pair of pre-sale Star Wars movie tickets from a friend and was thinking of inviting you along for the opening premiere . Are you interested ?
Yeah , definitely ! Thanks for inviting me .
My pleasure .
I really wanted to watch the Star Wars on the opening day , but the pre-sale tickets were sold out . How did you manage to get hold of them ?
A friend of mine works at the corporate headquarters of Pepsi , which is a major sponsor of the movie . He was able to get the tickets for free , and then he sold two more for me for 50 dollars a piece .
You paid 50 dollars for each ticket ? That's a huge premium over the regular price .
Not really . Considering the fact that other people were willing to pay as much as 200 dollars each on the black market . Besides , I knew you were really looking forward to watching Star Wars on the opening day .
Wow ! I am really honored you went through all this trouble just for my sake . I really appreciate that . So , what time are we going ?
Well , let's see . The movie stars at 10 . We should be there at least 1 hour earlier , because there is a big line . I could pick you up at your house at 8 , if that's ok with you .
8 pm , that's fine with me .
Okay .
So I'll see you tomorrow then at 8 .
Yeah , that's great . I'll see you tomorrow night .
Ok , George . Bye !
Peter , have you seen my purse ?
No , mom . I haven't seen it .
That's strange . It should be on the desk .
Mom , did you try the basket on your bicycle ?
alright , tell me what you think .
don't you think it ' s a bit bright ?
yeah , maybe you ' re right . How about this outfit ?
that dress looks lovely on you , but it ' s not very practical , is it ?
no , I don't have an plans to go to a formal dance any time soon , but I love the way it looks . I just had to try it on ! What do you think about this ? It ' s casual , yet sophisticated .
I like the jeans , but you need something to go with the top . It ' s too plain on its own .
how about this scarf , these earrings , and an anklet ?
that might be going overboard a bit . How about just that scarf with a bracelet ?
that ' s a good idea . You have a lot of good fashion sense .
thanks . You ' d be ok on your own . There are loads of fashion victims out there , and you are not one of them . Have you tried it on yet ?
yep . Here it is . What do you think ?
that looks great . Just one more thing---you need some high heels with those jeans . Do you want a pair with a plain pattern or ones with a leopard print on them ?
the leopard print sounds fabulous . Are they a name brand ?
no , they ' re a Prada knock-off for 1/10 of the price of the real thing .
that ' s even better than the real thing .
if I were you , I ' d buy that now while it ' s on sale . If you spend more than $ 100 , you get a $ 50 voucher for more clothes .
Darling , this dress is for you . I hope you like it .
Oh , very beautiful . Thank you , Steven , I like it very much .
Your birthday is coming , and I think this dress suits you . Why not try it now ?
My birthday present ? I can't help telling you that I am a happy woman , darling . I will come back soon . ( Go to her bedroom and wear the new dress , then show it to Steven . )
It fits me exactly . How does it look like ?
It displays your slender figure , darling .
The most important thing is that you bought it for me . I am happy that you know my size and style .
Nice to see you ; how have you been feeling lately ?
I have been feeling great , Dr . Smith .
I am happy that you have decided to come in for your annual physical .
Yes , I am going on a cross-country bike ride on vacation and want to make sure that I don ' t have any problems .
We are going to look at your heart and lungs , do a few blood tests , and see that your eyes , ears , and nose are all working as they should .
I ' Ve been having trouble with congestion in my chest . Can you give me some tests for that ?
I can do a chest X-ray to check for congestion .
That would be great . What is the blood test for ?
The blood test is for cholesterol , white blood cell count , and blood sugar .
Good afternoon . Lotus Catering Company . Lilian speaking . May I help you ?
Good afternoon . Lilian . This is Tom Baker over at Beck ' s Trading company . We need to arrange a banquet for next Wednesday afternoon .
I see , Mr . Baker . How many people are you planning to invite and how much would you like to spend per person ?
Can we have dinner together sometime this weekend ?
Ok , you name the day .
How about the second of March ?
What day is that ?
It's Friday .
What do you want to eat today ?
I feel like having some dumplings . Let's go out to eat .
No need ! I know how to make dumplings . Let's do it from scratch . Can you give me a hand in the kitchen ? I don't think I can finish everything by myself .
Of course . What do you want me to do ?
Just trim vegetables for cooking . I will cut up the meat .
I can do that . And I would like to make dumplings later .
Yeah , you are my good helper , Steven .
My goodness ! My silk dress is shrunk . How did you wash it ?
It was washed by washing machine .
It should be handwashed with cold water . It's a common sense . Don't you know it ?
I'm so sorry . I have no idea of it . I washed silk dress the first time . I'll buy a new one for you or I'll give you money .
That's all right . Please ask me if you don't know how to do something next time . You can keep the silk dress if you don't mind . I think it fits you .
We should know by next month whom to hire . If your application is successful , we'll notify you by mail .
How long would I wait ?
We'll give you our decision in 7 days .
Thank you . I hope to hear from you as soon as possible .
Please send the next candidate in on your way out .
When can I have your firm C . I . F . prices , that is to say , the final offer , Mr . London ?
We ' ll have them worked out by this evening and let you have them tomorrow morning . Would you be free to come by then ?
Yes . I ' ll be here tomorrow morning at 10 .
Perfect . Our offer remains open for 3 days .
I don ' t need that long to make up my mind . If your prices are agreeable and if I can get the commission I want , I can place the order right away .
I ' m sure you ' ll find our price most favorable . Elsewhere prices for hardware have gone up tremendously in recent years . Our prices haven ' t changed much .
I ' m glad to hear that . As I ' Ve just said , I hope to conclude some substantial business with you .
We shall be very pleased . Is there anything else I can do for you , Mrs . Anderson ?
I ' m buying for chain department stores in Canada . They are also interested in Egyptian carpets . Could you introduce me to the person in charge of this line ?
Certainly , I ' ll make an appointment for you with Mr . Jordan of the Egypt National Native Produce and Animal By-products Import and Export Corporation .
Anne , would you please come in for a while ? Please also bring along the minutes of yesterday's management meeting .
Of course , sir ... Here's the minutes of the meeting .
How long did the meeting last ?
The meeting was delayed by thirty minutes and it lasted for two and a half hours .
Did the chairman ask for me ?
Yes , I told him that you were very ill and couldn't attend .
All right . Have you handed in my report to him ?
Yes , I did . Besides , here are all the reports and materials handed out in the meeting . I think you'll have to do some replies .
Thank you , Anne . You've done an excellent job . Did they mention the date for the next meeting ?
Hi , how is it going ?
Pretty good , Sam . Only the awful weather , you know .
That ' s right . I ' Ve never really liked it since I got here .
Hi , Sue . What's up ?
Hey , Andrew . How's everything with work ?
Ok , I guess . My boss has been on my back recently .
Really ? What's he been doing ?
You know , just giving me lots to do . I'm really busy right now .
Are you ? What are you busy with ?
Here , Let me get the door for you .
Thanks .
Do you need a hand with that ?
Actually , I could use some help . Thank you so much .
Grandpa , this restaurant looks really old ! How long ago was it built ?
I'm not sure when it started . But I know it's older than me . As a young boy , I used to eat here a lot .
Oh , it's interesting . Dad told me you brought him here when he was young , too . Now , it's my turn .
Yeah . We are the VIP customers here . So , what do you want to eat today ?
I'd like to eat a hamburger and a bottle of coca-cola .
Hey , kid , that's wrong . It's a Chinese restaurant . Let's eat something traditional .
Then there is nothing particular I'd like to eat . Grandpa , what's your favorite here ?
The Chinese rice pudding . Your father loves it , too . You wanna try ?
Sure . Is it sweet ?
Yes , of course . But I think they can make you a salty one , too .
Great , I want it spicy .
Come on . Don's go too far .
I want it to be special . And you know that I always like hot food .
How was your education going on in Australia ?
I'm going to graduate this summer .
Where are you going to work then , in Australia or back in China ?
I'm planning to return to China after graduation .
Why are you choosing to leave a foreign country ? Many people are reluctant to leave the superior living environment abroad .
Well , I think personal development is much more important than simply having a superior living environment .
Remember that old man who used to beg for money on the street across from our house ?
Yeah . Whatever became of him ?
He got a job and now he owns a small grocery in town .
Come and sit down . Would you like a drink ?
Oh , yes please ! I'd love a gin and tonic .
Do you like olives ? Or would you prefer crisps ?
Oh , just olives please . What music is this ?
Do you like it ? It's Irish music .
It's great ! Where did you get the CD ?
Arm - I think it was in the CD shop in the Mall . Have you been there ?
Yes . I buy a lot of stuff from there . It's a good shop , isn't it ?
Yes . Hey , I've got some photos of our holiday in Ireland . Would you like to see them ?
Remember that writing contest I entered ? Well , I won first prize .
Please take me to Plaza Hotel .
OK . When should we be there ?
As soon as possible , because I've got an important meeting to attend .
You see that chick over there ?
The one in the red shirt ?
Yeah . Isn't she hot ?
She's alright .
Just alright ? ! ? She's hot !
Why don't you go talk to her ?
You think she's out of my league ?
Hell no ! You're just a chicken that's all .
C'mon . I get nervous when I talk to girls .
Why don't you go stand next to her for a while and if an opportunity comes up , strike a conversation .
What do I talk about ?
It doesn't matter . You gotta find what she's interested in and go with that .
I don't know ...
Do you want me to go talk to her ?
No . Stay away from her .
If you don't do anything , I'll bet somebody else will .
Good evening . This is Peter in Room 310 .
Good evening . May I help you ?
I'm going to Beijing early tomorrow morning . And I'd like to request an early morning call . Will that give you much trouble ?
Oh , no , never . What's the exact time you'd like us to call you tomorrow morning ?
Well , my train is due to take off at 7:25 a . m . I've no idea how long it'll take to drive to the railway station .
It won't take long . 20 minutes is enough . Is that OK if I call you at 6:30 a . m . ?
OK , thank you .
How have you been ?
Fine , thank you .
And how ' s everyone in your family ?
Very well , thank you . I ' m meeting my wife and daughter for lunch at 12 , would you care to join us ?
But the auction is a blast ! And I haven't even told you the best part yet !
I don't care what the best part is . Whatever you say won't change my mind . I'm not buying anything !
That stamp you've been looking for is for sale .
The 1879 Large Dragon ? Are you serious ? How much ?
Would you like to go skiing with me ? I heard the new ski area is great . They have safe tracks , especially for the beginners and provide free training . I think it suits you best .
Sounds not bad ! You know , the only thing I worried about is the safety . I ' m not an active exerciser and my muscle may be not strong enough for such an intense sport .
Well , Then you can go to the three-day-long training camp first . There ' re some professional teachers and they can guide you to do certain necessary exercise .
I will think about it .
Can I reserve a room from the 13th to the 18th ?
Certainly . How do you like your room ?
I'd like a suite . What's the rate ?
Hello , Catherine . Would you like to go out tomorrow ?
Tomorrow ?
Yeah , I was thinking we could get a bite to eat and catch a movie .
That sounds great .
Yes . We can do something else if you like .
OK . Dinner and a movie will be perfect .
Well . What time would you like me to pick you up ?
How about 7 o'clock ?
Good . I will see you then .
OK . Bye .
How are you doing today ?
Great . Thank you .
What can I do for you ?
I need to withdraw some money .
How much would you like to take out ?
I need to withdraw $ 300 .
Which account would you like to take the money from ?
I want to take it from my checking account .
Okay , here you go .
Thank you very much .
Can I do anything else for you ?
Sorry ! Excuse me ! I got your message .
Taylor ? Taylor ! Is this a joke ? Is it really you ? But ... but ... everyone said you were dead !
That's OK . Just let it out . I'm OK ! I was out of town with ... Femi .
Oh , Taylor ! I'm so ... so happy . But then ... who's that ?
I've typed the report .
Well done .
And I've filed the letters .
Excellent job .
And I've checked the orders .
I'm very impressed .
And I've ordered the supplies .
Which university did you graduate from ?
I graduated from Peking University .
What was your major at university ?
I studied economics , I am especially interested in the economic development of China .
What course did you like best ?
I like Business Management , and i think it's very useful for the present work .
What do you think is the relationship between the subjects you've taken and the job you are seeking ?
I'd like to rent a car .
May I see your driver's license , please ?
Here is my international driver's license . What kinds of cars do you have ?
We have Honda , Citroen and Toyota . Which make and model do you prefer ?
I'll take the Citroen C2 . What is the rate for the car per day ?
The price is 60 euro per day . Do you want insurance ?
Full coverage , please .
That's an extra 10 euro a day .
Do I have to fill up when I check in ?
What do you make of the case ?
If you ask me , I don ' t think it ' s guilty .
What do you mean by saying so ?
I mean it ' s not his fault .
Oh , yeah ?
I went to visit a customer in IVS Company the other day . Their offices were very impressive , especially their company Logo which is all over the place . There are Logo models in metal , copper , clove , paper . They are even printed on the wall paper and the balls of the table-lights . It is really decorated identity .
It is just too much . Don ' t you feel it is an exaggerating style to decorate offices in that way ?
Not at all ! I like the design so much . The designer must have thought really hard to come out with such a brilliant concept .
There must be something weighing on your mind . What is it ?
Dad , I lost mum's necklace . I'm afraid she will scold me .
Don ' t worry . I'll buy a new necklace as same as the old one .
Does it bother you that your husband goes away on long business trips ?
I just received a phone call for an interview next week .
Congratulations ! This is your first interview ever .
thank you , but I'm nervous . I don't know what to do . Could you tell me what should I do before an interview ?
sure , you should prepare so that you can give proper response when you're being interviewed .
yeah , besides my personal introduction , what else should I prepare ?
you should collect as much information about the company and the position you're applying for as you can . It is important to show that you've done some research into the company . The interviewers Wil
then what should I do when I'm being interviewed ?
smile at the interviewers and look them in their eyes while trying to persuade them to select you . Try to act natural , let your personality , ability and interpersonal skills shine through the interview
are there any other things I should pay attention to ?
There are things that are actually even smaller than atoms .
What are those ?
They are the things that make up the atom , such as electrons and protons .
Is there anything that is smaller than electrons and protons ?
Of course there is . Things can be divided and broken down into indefinitely small parts if we can .
So how long have you known Mary ?
Only four days .
Only four days ! That's so short , and you seem so crazy about her .
Sometimes I think television is too biased . None of them are completely objective .
That's unavoidable , but think , How would you keep up to date without television ?
Newspapers or the radio I guess . I just wish TV was more objective .
Look , you can still learn a lot from watching television , you just need to be smart when you're watching . Filter the information and decide if you believe what you are hearing or not .
The internet's a lot worse .
Really ? Why ?
There's no one moderating it . Anyone around the world can put information onto the net for anyone else to see . The information on the internet is mostly unsubstantiated and you can never know who has written it , or why . A lot of people get conned online .
I'd like to make a reservation to Los Angels for next Monday .
Just a second and I'll check the schedule .
I'll need an economy ticket with an open return .
American Airlines has a flight leaving at 9:25 a . m .
I guess that's OK . What time should I check in ?
Can I help you , sir ?
I want to find a book called Gone with the Wind . But I can't find it .
Let me give you a hand . The author is ...
Margaret Mitchell .
Oh , yes . Here it is .
Thank you very much . I have been looking for it for a long time . Is this the latest edition ?
Yes , we have both the paperback and hardcover . which would you want to buy ?
How about the price of the hardcover ?
It's $ 25 .
When you are in a restaurant you want the waiter to bring the bill , what do you do to attract his attention ?
I just make eye contact with him and nod my head . Then I tell him when he comes over to the table . Why do you ask ?
I went out with my girlfriend to a nice restaurant last night and I noticed that many people shouted for the bill .
That seems a little impolite in such a restaurant .
That ' s what I thought . I just thought I ' d ask you and see what you thought of it . Anyway , what did you do yesterday evening ?
Well , it was a warm evening , so I stretched my legs . I walked along the canal for a couple of miles . Actually , several other people had the same idea . I saw Bill .
Did you ? How is he these days ?
He seemed ok . We didn ' t stop and chat because we were on opposite banks of the canal . We just waved at each other .
I need to move some furniture . Could you help me to lift it ?
Of course . What do you want to move first ?
Give these sales figures a look . It's pretty depressing . We're way in the red this year . We can't afford to keep going like this for much longer .
You're right , we need to start making money soon , or at least manage to break even . But I think that the market is slowly beginning to heat up--sales are bound to pick up any time now .
Deman is dropping . The problem is our competition . They are monopolizing the market !
Maybe we should rethink our marketing strategy to include the possibility that our new line of cosmetics could be a big seller .
It's really too early to tell , but a lot is riding on the new products . If we don't do better after the product launch , we may have to go bankrupt .
Do you think it's that serious ?
Look at this numbers and see for yourself . Read'sm and weep .
Hello , I'm Jack . Are you Christina ?
Yes I am . Nice to meet you , Jack .
Are you from Italy , Christina ?
No , I am German . I live in Munich .
Really , I went to Munich last week .
And did you like it ?
Oh , yes . It is a fantastic city . And I like German food as well .
And where are you from , Jack ?
I am from California in the United States . But I am now studying in England .
What are you studying ?
I am studying languages . This year I am doing German and Italian .
Were you engaged in any activities at college ?
No , I had no interest in the activities in college and I spent most of my spare time reading in the library .
What kind of activity would make you get involved ?
I want to ask you for a favor . I want to rent an apartment here in Beijing , but as a foreigner , I don't know the normal practice . Can you give me some advice ?
First , why don't you tell me what you need , such as how big a room , where you want to live , whether you want to live downtown , and what you like to do . Then I can figure out which apartment is most suitable for you .
I am a student and want to live in Haitian , so that I can live close to my school . I like to play soccer and I like a quiet apartment so I can study .
I think that an apartment with two rooms and a kitchen would suit your needs . I can introduce you to a place for rent near your school . The apartment is on the 7th floor , so it is very quiet and suitable for studying .
That sounds great !
You can also go to the school's sports field to play soccer , and if you're lucky you might make some Chinese friends there . It is right near the market and has comfortable facilities .
Hi there . How can I help ?
I started a new job last month and I'm expecting my first salary .
I see . And your company has a Wage Distribution Service Agreement with us ?
So I was told , yes . They gave me this book ?
Next , please . May I help you , sir ?
Hello , yes , I ' d like to open a bank account .
Certainly , I can can help you with that . What type of account would you like to open ? A chequing or a savings account ?
What features do they offer ?
Well , if you just take a look here , see , with our chequing account , you can have unlimited daily transactions for a small monthly fee , and our savings account has a higher interest rate , but you must carry a minimum balance of $ 10,000 dollars .
I see , well , I think I ' m more interested in a chequing account . I like to have easy access to my money .
Alright , then , with this chequing account you ' ll be issued a debit card and a cheque book . Will you require overdraft protection ? There is an extra fee for that .
No , that won ' t be necessary .
In that case , I ' ll get you to fill out this paperwork . I ' ll need your social insurance number , and two pieces of government ID . If you could just sign here , and here , and here we ' ll be all set . Would you like to make a deposit today ?
A friend told me might find a room here .
Yes . I'll have a room free next week .
What do you charge ?
12,000 yuan a year , but you can't have visitors live in it .
OK . Would it be all right to look at the room first ?
Do you know what E-commerce is ?
Well , I'm not sure . Maybe it means we can buy something through the Internet .
That's right
It must be very convenient and pretty quick .
I'm free on Sunday . I'd like to take a look in Beijing City , could you tell me where to go ?
Sure , no problem . I'll ring to have a city tour . on sunday morning we can go to the Great Wall , then we can go to the summer palace in the afternoon . In the evening we can have typical dinner in restaurant in Beijing . Quanjude , a restaurant serving roast ducks . However if you don't like above trips , we can go some famous places outside of Beijing .
Any place will be fine . you make the decision .
What time shall we start ?
I will pick you up at your hotel at eight in the morning .
Hurry up , get in .
I ' m in , let ' s go !
OK , make a left here . . . no wait , I meant make a right . Come on , speed up !
Geez ! What ' s the rush ?
Don ' t worry about it , just drive . Oh , no , the light is about to change . . . step on it !
Are you nuts ! I ' m not going to run a red light !
Whatever . Just turn right here . . . . The freeway will be packed at this hour . . . . let ' s take a side street . Go on ! Get out of our way ! Move , move !
What ' s your problem ! Geez . Having a fit is not going to help !
Here , I know a short cut ... just go down here , and we ' ll cut though Ashburn Heights . Let ' s go , let ' s go ! Watch out for that lady !
I ' m going as fast as I can !
Yes ! We made it . 5:58 , just before the library closes .
I am really interested in buying this television .
That's great !
How much are you selling it for ?
This TV is $ 2500 .
You can't be serious .
That's how much this t . v costs .
That's too expensive for me .
This television is of very high quality .
You can't go down on the price ?
By how much ?
I'll buy it for $ 2000 .
Good morning , sir . Is there anything I can do for you ?
Yes , I would like to have a suit made to measure .
Sure . How do you like your suit ?
Hi there ! My name ' s Terry Graham . You ' re new around here , huh ?
Yes . My name ' s Mark Benson . I just started a couple of weeks ago .
Well , if there ' s anything I can do for you , let me know .
Which social problem do you think the government needs to concentrate on most ?
I think housing is a big problem . There are thousands of homeless people on the streets .
How would you solve the problem ?
I have a good idea to solve it . The government could provide some money for homeless people to build their own homes .
It would probably be very expensive .
I think the government can afford it . Besides , there are many advantages . Homeless people would find it easier to get jobs if they had an address . They would learn some useful skill for finding jobs in the construction industry or home improvement .
It ' s not a bad idea . I think education is the biggest problem at the moment . Schools don ' t seem to have enough money to educate kids properly .
If we are to invest more money to education , we will need to raise taxes . That wouldn ' t be popular with voters .
Most voters what everything bout ways . They want the government to pay for lots of things , but without increasing taxes .
The government should show that it is using money efficiently . Sometimes you hear about how the government has wasted money on a project .
Bill , I have received the admission letter from Cambridge University !
Congratulations !
How about you ? Have you got any news from university ?
No . But I am going to apply for some vocational schools . I like fashion design and want to study it .
May I help you ?
Yes , I'd like to see that pen .
Oh , that's a really good buy ... Here . There's only one left .
Can I get it duty-free ?
Sure , if you show me your passport .
It's not the latest model , is it ?
Hello ! I ' m now trying to take a bath , but there are too many buttons , would tell me how to use them ?
I see , we have an explanation left on the table . If you follow the direction , it ' s quite simple .

Oh , certainly .
Can you play tennis ?
Yes , I can .
It is interesting , isn't it ?
Yes , it's very interesting .
Can you teach me ?
Sure . Take the tennis racket . Now , throw the ball up , and hit it with the racket . Like this .
Let me try . Oh , I missed !
Throw the ball up high .
High ?
Yes , very high . Over your head . Then you will have time to hit the ball .
Oh ! I hit it .
Well done !
How's your new work , Carl ?
A tough job . They even offer in-service training every Wednesday afternoon .
Good for you .
I don't like it . I am not used to this kind of 9 to 5 work hours . Above all , I hate talking to those poker faces everyday .
Well , you have to take the bad with the good .
How can I help you ?
Yes , I would like to look at some of your products .
Did you have anything specific in mind ?
Well , to be honest , I mostly use Sarah Winter products now . But I'm not happy with them . So I would like to change companies .
Well , you made a good choice . Coming to us , I mean . We have a full range of products from cosmetics to skin cleansers and moisturizers .
What do you have in foundation ?
Our foundation is very high quality . Only the finest ingredients . It will moisturize your skin and it has a sun block rating of 8 .
What colors do you have in foundation ?
Let me show you . We have this rose color . We also have different shades of beige .
The color I use now is rose . How much does this rose foundation cost ? The 100ml bottle .
In this size , we sell it for 53 . 95 .
Wow ! That's expensive .
What you're paying for , Ma'am , are the ingredients . It is a very high quality product .
I understand . I need some mascara too . Do you have a good thickening mascara ?
Of course . Here is our thickening mascara . We also have mascara designed to lengthen the eyelashes .
Alright . And I want to consider your eye shadow too . Do you have a color chart I can look at ?
We have a very wide selection of colors . And our eye shadow is specially designed to moisturize the skin . So it is very gentle on your eyelids . Would you like to sample some ?
Oh , sure . I will need to clean off my own eye shadow first .

How about you , Chuck ? Where did you grow up ?
Well , I was born in Ohio , but I grew up in Texas .
And when did you come to Los Angeles ?
In 1978 . I went to college here .
Oh . What was your major ?
Drama . I was an actor for five years after college .
That's interesting . So why did you become a hairdresser ?
Which team has won ?
Neither . The game ended in two all .
But I still think AC milan's defence seems better organized .
What would you like to order ?
I would like to have a hamburger .
Did you want it with cheese ?
I don't want cheese on it .
Did you want anything to drink ?
I think I'm going to get a soda today .
What kind of soda can I get you ?
A Sprite sounds good .
What else would you like ?
Let me get a bag of chips too .
Anything else ?
This is the schedule for the project . Any comments or questions ?
I think we'll need more time than the schedule gives us .
We've got a new manager in our department .
Oh ? You hoped to get that job , didn't you ?
Yes , I did .
I'm sorry . That's too bad . Who is it ? Who got the job , I mean ?
Someone called Drexler . Carl Drexler . He's been with the company onlytwo years . I've been here longer . And I know more about the job , too
Hmm . Why do you think they gave it to him and not to you ?
Because I'm the wrong sex , of course !
You mean you didn't get the job because you're a woman ?
Yes , that was probably it ! It isn't fair .
What sort of clothes does he wear ?
A dark suit . White shirt . A tie . Why ?
Perhaps that had something to do with it .
You mean you think I didn't get the job because I come to work in jeansand a sweater ?
It's possible , isn't it ?
Do you really think I should wear different clothes ?
Well . . . perhaps you should think about it .
Why should I wear a skirt ? Or a dress ?
I'm not saying you should . I'm saying you should think about it . That's all !
Why should I do that ? I'm good at my job ! That's the only important thing !
How do I set up an email account ?
Oh , that ' s easy . Go to yahoo . com . Now , click on the link with the picture of an envelope .
Which link ?
That one , the one that says , " Mail . "
Oh , no . What did I do ? It ' s asking me for a password .
Don ' t worry . See where it says , " New User " ?
Yes .
Click on that .
Oh , I see .
I hear that the Students ' Union is going to take new members .
Really ? Can I join it ?
Of course you can if you like it .
How can I join it ?
There will be an information session about the Students ' Union this Tuesday . You can apply for it then .
Hello . This is Doctor Bell ' s Office . Can I help you ?
Hi . This is Taylor Wright calling . I ' Ve got an appointment with Doctor Bell at 9 . 00 tomorrow morning . I ' Ve got to cancel this appointment . My father-in-law passed away suddenly last night .
I ' m sorry to hear that . Cancelling the appointment is no problem . Thank you for your call .
Are you free tonight ?
Yes , I am . What's wrong ?
Would you please go to a dancing party with me ?
OK . No problem .
As a matter of fact , I haven't danced for a long time .
But it's said that you dance wonderfully well .
Thanks for flattering me . I think you dance a lot , right ?
No . Just occasionally .
What are your favourite dances ?
I love rumba and waltz .
How about samba ?
To tell the truth , I don't like it . It's too fast .
Then I'll see you at six . Is that all right ?
OK . See you then .
Is the environment a big issues in your country ? It is in mine .
It is in mine too . The biggest issue is water . The climate is dry and so water conservation is very important .
What methods do you use to conserve water ?
Water is rationed . We can only use a certain amount each month . It means that we cannot use some modern household items , like washing machines . They use too much water .
I see . I think the biggest environment problem in my country is air pollution .
Yes , I agree . The air here is much more polluted than in my country . Of course , my country is more agricultural and has much less industry .
We have reduced emission of air pollutants in recent years , but cars are still a major source of them . Factories have become cleaner as stricter environment pollution law have been introduced .
The problem is now on a truly global scale . I don ' t believe that any single country can do anything about it .
are you good at cooking ?
no , but I'm pretty good at eating !
do you prefer chinese food or Western food ?
well , to be honest with you , Chinese food is really different from western food .
are you used to the food here ?
I'm not really used to it yet .
what's your favorite Chinese dish ?
like most foreigners , I really like Sweet and Sour Pork and Kung Pao Chicken . I eat them almost every day .
have you tried traditional Chinese dumplings yet ?
I tried once , but they are quite difficult to eat with chopsticks .
you know , foreigners are not expected to use chopsticks proficiently . If you do , you'll give your Chinese friends quite an impression .
that's good to know . I'd like to try more Chinese food , but since I can't read any of the menus in the restaurants near my home , it's difficult to try new food .
if you want , I can introduce you to some typical Chinese dishes .
that would be great . I really only want to taste real Chinese food , not just the food that foreigners like to eat !
I'd like to talk to you about my grades .
Sure ! What exactly do you have questions about ?
I am worried that I messed up on a test .
Well , let me take a look at my grade book . How do YOU think you are doing ?
I think I am doing great , except for that one test !
Well , your scores show that you could do a little better . What do you think you could improve on ?
I think that I could study a little harder for tests .
Fine ! Please remember that regular attendance is the most important way to begin .
Yes , I know .
Hi there , Mr Brown . Are you depositing or withdrawing today ?
Sorry to say it , but neither of those . I'm here to close our account with you . The market around here has been dropping for a while now , and it's just not sensible for us to stay .
I understand . So , what would you like to do with the balance ?
I guess I should just withdraw everything .
215,000 RIB is the exact balance . If you could just sign your name here .
Your house is very old . Does it need redecorating ?
Yes , it really needs redecorating .
Shall I help you with it ?
I don ' t suppose you could .
I have much time . I suppose it can be done .
This is a nice set of wheels . How much did the dealer charge you for this ?
A lot . I probably got to moonlight for the rest of my life , but so what , it ' s worth it . Come on , get in . Let ' s take a drive .
Okay then , let ' s go fast ! Whoa ! This thing can really accelerate fast .
Check out what happens when I put on the brakes suddenly . It can stop quickly .
Hey , just watch out for cops or you ' re gonna end up in the slammer . You know you tend to go fast ?
Yes , I know it . I went through my last set of tires fast . I even had three flat tires in two weeks .
Now watch ... some guys probably run a light and hit your car .
Mary has really gotten under my skin .
I know what love it . When I was young , I felt the same way .
I think I ' m crazy about her .
Crown Hotel . Reservation Desk . Can I help you ?
Yes , I'd like to book a room at your hotel .
What kind of room would you like , sir ? We have single rooms , double rooms , suites and deluxe suites in our hotel .
I'd like to book a single room with a bath from the afternoon of October 2nd to the morning of October 6th .
All right .
What is the rate , please ?
The current rate is $ 100 per night .
What services come with that ?
For $ 100 you'll have a radio , a color television , a telephone and a major international newspaper delivered to your room every day .
Credit Services , how can I help you ?
I'd like to apply for a credit card with you .
Would that be our standard card , our gold card , or our platinum card ?
Oh , I'm not sure . What's the difference ?
Well , the standard card has a lower credit limit , that's 20,000 RIB , whereas with the platinum card you can have a credit limit of 80,000 RIB .
Why such a big difference ?
It's all about credit rating and salary . If your credit rating and your salary are high enough , we can offer you the platinum card .
My salary is pretty high and I've never had a problem with my credit rating in the past . Are there any perks of the platinum card ?
Yes , we have contracts with various luxury shops and health clubs , where if you use the card to purchase items from them , you can get some healthy discounts .
What is your favorite pastime ?
Fishing . It's great fun .
Is it ? Mine is climbing mountains on Sunday mornings .
Would you mind giving me a hand ?
Okay , Bob , What is it ?
Help me hang up this picture , please . Would you hold it straight while I put in the nail ?
All right .
Now , hand me the hammer and those nails , please .
Yes , here you are .
There ! How does it look ? Tell me if I've got it straight .
Hello , Madam . What can I do for you today ?
Hello . Yes , I'm here to redeem a Treasury Note . It's not at the maturity date yet , but it is an emergency .
OK , can I see the note and some ID , please ?
There you are . As you can see , the maturity isn't up yet .
You do realise that you must pay a 0 . 2 % charge for premature cancellation , right ?
Oh , really ? No , I wasn't aware of that .
When are we leaving for our field trip ?
Our science field trip is next Monday at 8 a . m . in the morning . Can you mark that on your calendar ?
Yes , I will write that down .
That will be Monday , December 2nd . We need to start loading the buses half an hour early , so plan to arrive at 7 .
Yes , I will be there on time .
We will return 6 days later on December 8th . Will someone be picking you up ?
Yes , someone is coming to get me .
The return bus will leave the campground at 5 p . m . and return to campus 3 hours later at 8 p . m .
What should we bring with us ?
Excuse me , will you change me some money , please ?
Of course .
I'd like to change these dollars into RIB . Would you please tell me the exchange rate between American dollar and RIB ?
Sure . At present one dollar is equal to 6 . 4392 yuan . How many dollars would you like to change ?
500 dollars , please .
Please wait for a moment ... Now here is your Chinese currency . See if it's right . It's 3,220 yuan . Please keep this exchange memo . You may need it for converting when you leave China .
OK . Thank you for your help . That's very nice of you .
Let's sell our stocks now .
Why ? They keep going up .
Where are you living ?
I live in the southern part of this city . I rent a house .
Do you move a lot ?
Do you have any idea what time it is ?
My bad . I didn't realize that it was so late .
Do you really think that that excuses your tardiness ?
Of course not . I really did lose track of time .
Didn't I tell you to call when you're running late ?
Yeah , you did . I just forgot to call .
It doesn't matter , you should have called and let me know .
That's true . My bad for not calling .
If you do this again , don't even bother coming home .
You're going to kick me out over this ?
Exactly , maybe that'll teach you to respect my rules .
You didn't ring me last night . You said you would .
I'm sorry to have made you disappointed .
That's all right . But why were you so rude to me at lunch .
Was I ? Sorry , I didn'y mean to be . I do apologize .
And why are you yarning now ? Are you bored ?
Do you like music ?
Well , it depends .
Do you think the music is well-matched ?
No , I think the music is too fast .
How about the words of the song ?
It sounds nice .
I like it . Naturally it can arouse your feelings .
Yes , I think so . It's very emotional .
Of course , and I also like the rhythms .
Full of energy and hope .
Really . It's worth listening to and enjoying .
Could you have a taxi pick me up and take me to the airport before 1 p . m . ?
What's your address , sir ?
I live at 323 Park Street .
Ok , someone will be there by 12:15 .
What are your rates ?
It's 2 dollars initially and 35 cents for each quarter mile .
I have four very large suitcases . Will those fit in the taxi ?
Good afternoon , need any help ?
My name is Liu Wei . I have booked a ticket to Boston three days before .
That's right and your flight number is CA621 .
But now I want to make a change . Please cancel this flight and transfer me to flight GB105 .
Excuse me , sir . Flight GB105 is one to Milan , are you sure of your change ?
Do you have a foreign tour ?
Yes , where do you want to go ?
Sydney .
Would you please look at the five routes ?
Well , the route 5 is really charming . Must I make a reservation ?
I'm afraid I have to return this sweater .
May I ask if there's anything wrong with it ?
You see , there is a run at the neck .
Oh , sorry . But do you want to change it for another one ?
I can't believe Mr . Fro didn't buy it . Who does that guy think he is anyway ? Bill Gates ?
He had a lot of nerve telling us our ads sucked .
Time to order . Balista , today I want a skinny triple latte .
When did you start worrying about your weight ?
I'm not . I just don't feel like drinking whole milk today . Why ? Do you think I'm fat ?
Do you even know where this bus is supposed to go ?
It should take us all the way up to Altadena .
Don't you know ?
I'm not positive if it does or not .
Is this the right bus , or not ?
I have never been on this bus , but I'm sure it's the right one .
Where are we ? This is not Altadena .
I know , and we've been on the bus forever .
Tell me what the street signs say .
Oh my gosh , that one says Temple City .
Next time , I'll look for the bus myself .
It seems to be clearing up .
It's such a nice change .
I really don't think this weather will last .
Peter really is a remarkable expert ! There is very little he doesn ' t know .
Here's your drink , sir .
No , that's not right . I didn't order a coffee . I ordered a cola .
Oh , I'm terribly sorry , sir . I'll go and get you cola right away .
Waiter !
Yes , sir . I'll bring your drink right away .
It's not that . There's an animal in my soup .
Is there , sir ? I'm very sorry . I'll change it straight away .
I've never been to such a dirty restaurant , and never seen such slow service .
Have you ever thought of going to Africa ?
No , it might be dangerous there .
Would you like to go with me ?
Have you ever run into a person who tries to bleed you white ?
I am always on the look out for such girls .
I hear that some guys splash all their money about on them .
The City Bank . May I help you , sir ?
Yes , I'd like to close my account .
May I have your name , please ?
Adam Smith .
Alright , what's your address ?
56 Edison Ave , Apartment 39 , Los Angeles .
When would you like your account closed ?
Next Friday .
Okay . Where would you like to have your last bill sent to you ?
14 May flower Ave , Los Angeles .
Where are you going ?
I have to go to work .
Going to work where ?
I ' m working at the polling place .
I didn ' t know you were working there this year .
I work at the polling place every year .
How did you get that job ?
I signed up for it online .
That ' s really cool .
It ' s a very cool job .
Do they pay you a lot ?
Welcome to IBA . Can I help you ?
Yes , hello . Our company used your bank to send some documents to Malaysia last week . Could you check and see if the proceeds have come back yet , please ? It's Sang Hung Enterprises , based in Kula Lump .
OK , just a moment ... yes , it has arrived . The amount is 51,998 US dollars net , 12 US dollars has been deducted by the intermediary bank .
That's as it should be . When will it be paid in and credited to our account ?
Vancouver is the third largest city in Canada .
Would you please tell me what places are worth visiting ?
Can I help you with something ?
I need to cancel one of my accounts .
Is there a problem with it ?
I don ' t need it anymore .
What would you like to do with all the money in this account ?
Just transfer it over to my remaining account .
I can do that .
That would be great .
Do you want to take any money out ?
Not today .
It ' s going to take a moment for me to cancel your account .
Honey , could you help me operate the VD player ? It can't play .
Oh , are the connections correct ?
I think so .
Let me see . Look ! You confused the video frequency with the audio frequency .
I'm too careless .
Can it work now ?
No .
So what's the problem ? Maybe there is something wrong with the disk .
It's a new disk .
Give it to me .
Here you are .
May I bring you a salad ?
Oh , yes . What do you recommend today ?
Rose-petal salad .
John seems to be in high cotton . He may well become a big shot .
I bet my button dollar that he won't . He is no more than a nine day's wonder .
What is your idea ?
... I knew it . I always knew you were a lesbian !
She's my roommate , not my date . The D-man , as in dork .
Haha . Still got that great sense of humor , I see . Here's my card . I sell used cars . A car from us is a car you can trust !
Alrighty then . Didn't you use to date Sheryl ?
Sweet little lassie . Yep , broke her heart when the D-man told her he couldn't be a one-woman guy .
May I fix an appointment with Dr . Cui ?
Sure .
When will it be convenient for her ?
Any time is all right , except Sunday .
How about ten o'clock tomorrow ?
You know that this job requires frequent business travel . Can you accept it ?
Yes , I can .
Mostly short business trips , but sometimes long ones are also needed .
Then how about the expenses during the trips ?
The company will pay all the expenses .
Would you tell me where we often travel ?
Usually Shanghai , Qingdao , Hong Kong and so on .
It's great ! I like these places .
And you need to go abroad once in a while . Can you ?
Yes , I can .
After the business trip , you could apply for reimbursement of all the expenses , such as passage money and accommodation charges and so on .
I see .
You can take a break for one or two weeks after you have a business trip every time , which depends on the circumstances .
Stop running around in front of the TV , will you ? Why don't you just sit and watch ?
I've tried , but I can't stand the bald man talking so loudly in the program .
Then stay away . No one is keeping you from doing that .
Don't be so irritable . I just don't understand the program , that's all .
All right , I will explain it to you later on . Now scram .
Ok . I will wait until you have had your fun , if that's what you want .
Good afternoon , it's nice to see you again . Have you decided to go ahead and try for the Fixed Asset Loan ?
I'm going to need some more info first . I was wondering about the repayments . How long would I have to pay back the loan ?
That depends . Our repayment plans go from 1 year to 10 years . The Fixed Asset Loan is a long-term loan , you see . The loan can be paid in either monthly or quarterly instalments , to suit your needs .
And how much is payable in each instalment ?
You will need to pay part of the principle sum and part of the interest due .
Want to join me for a midnight snack ? I need to grab something to eat .
Fine with me , but no more chafing dish .
Let's go the food stall . There's a good one just around the corner .
I'd love to try some snacks .
( Later ) Everything looks tempting . What do you want to have ?
Kebabs and roast squid .
Can I have a bite ?
Help yourself .
I am calling to tell you that you are hired by our company .
I really appreciate your offer , but I have to decline it , because I have already taken another job which I prefer to work in .
You are welcome , Please call me if you change your mind .
I have the chills and an upset stomach .
How long have you felt like this ?
For most of the week .
It sounds as if you have a virus .
What do you think I should do ?
Cindy , I have this room to myself ?
It's all yours .
It's twice as big as my room in Taiwan !
Well , I hope it's comfortable enough for you .
I think I'm going to like it here .
You have a phone on the bedside table that you can use .
Wow , I have my own bathroom !
Kind of . It leads to my bedroom .
Hurry up ! Time is money !
Don't build a fire under me . I know the importance of time .
But you are too slow to follow them .
I don't think the teacher had a right to say that . The teacher was wrong to have accused her in front of the whole class .
You've got to be joking ! It's the teacher's right to say anything wants , and if she saw Myra cheating , she certainly had the right to say so .
I agree she had the right to say something , but I feel she should have done it privately .
What's your favorite movie ?
My favorite movie is Superbad .
Oh , why is that ?
It's the funniest movie that I've ever seen .
That's true . It is a very funny movie .
You've seen it before ?
Yes , I saw that movie the first day it came out in theaters .
Didn't you laugh through the whole movie ? I did .
Me too . That movie brought tears to my eyes .
Mine too .
I have it on DVD at my house if you want to come over and watch it .
I just called Mr . Smith in Room 201 , but there was no reply . Would you find out if he's still staying there ?
All right . One moment , please ... No , Mr . Smith checked out this morning .
Oh , he did ? May I have his forwarding address , please ?
I ' d love to have my own farm .
It would be very hard work . Are you sure ?
I wouldn ' t mind getting up early morning and the physical work would make me fit and healthy .
Running a farm would be totally different to you current job .
That ' s one reason I ' d like to try it . I ' d really like to get away from working 9 to 5 in an office .
You ' d need a lot of training before becoming a farmer . It ' s not something you can just walk into .
My uncle owns a farm and I ' Ve spent some time working with him . I love being in the countryside with farm animals and green fields .
So do you believe in palmistry ?
Palmistry ? What is that ?
It's when someone takes a look at another person's palm 4 to tell the future .
Oh , you mean palm reading 5 . I've seen that before , but I don't believe in it .
Are you sure ? I've read a lot about palmistry and I've been able to tell a lot of accurate things about a person from his palm . Do you want me to take a look at your hand ?
Really ? You've read books about it ? Ok , then . But only if you want to .
Ok , let's see , well , you've got a long life line , which is good , and the love line is strong ...
What else do you see ? Will I be successful ? Will I make a lot of money ?
Hmm , hard to say , wait , yes , it looks like you will do well in business , and your ambition will help you a lot , but ...
What ? What is it ? What's the matter ?
You seem to have a large gullibility line . You believe everything that you're told .
I'd like to have this cashed , please .
Please put you name and address here . May I see your passport ?
Yes .
How would you like it ?
Ten hundreds and ten twenties , and the rest in small change , please .
How's the weather today ?
It's cloudy .
Is it going to rain today ?
I doubt it .
Where is it ?
I'm going to the Golden hotel .
Get in , please .
Thank you . I have an appointment with an important client at 10
Don't worry , you'll be there plenty of time . That is it . 7 . 15 $ , please .
Dick , I ' Ve decided not to rent that house .
But yesterday you said you would rent it .
I ' Ve changed my mind .
Why is that ?
Well , I think maybe I should find a house that is closer to where I work .
It sounds that you have a high opinion of him .
He is an all-right guy . I have no bone to pick with him .
Birds of feather flock together .
But he is not a fine wether friend who could sell you down the river .
You cannot judge a person that way . I have a hunch that he is a sly dog .
Depends on with whom . He may be doing things on the sly , but he is honest with me . I trust him .
Can I help you ?
I'd like two kilos of eggs .
What kind ?
Do you have the eggs with the red yolk ?
Sorry , madam . We have stopped selling those kinds of eggs for a week .
Why ?
You know , red yolk is proved unnatural . It's artificial , and may lead to cancer .
Oh , My God ! That's terrible .
Yes , so they are no longer being sold .
I am rejoiced to tell you that you are employed .
Thank you for hiring me . I'm very proud to be employed by your firm .
You are expected to report for on-job training on the 15th of May . Will you be there ?
What is your hobby ?
I spend most of my spare time reading . And I subscribe to various newspapers , magazines and periodicals .
What kind of reading materials do you like best ?
Hello , Walter ?
Yes . Hi , what's up ?
I was wondering if you wanted to go for a walk with us .
I'm afraid not . I'm sick . I have a fever but I'm cold , and I threw up earlier .
Oh , man . I hope you get to feeling better .
I would feel better if you came over and took care of me .
OK , then . I'll be there in a minute .
( after a while ... ) Walter ! Where are you ?
I'm in the bathroom .
What took you so long ?
Gross . Diarrhea ?
It's not so bad .
OK , whatever , I don't want to hear about it . I'll call the doctor for you .
It's just that you have to be patient and try to relax .
Enough . I don't want to hear any more about your bathroom time .
Why not ? Oh well , I'm ready to eat . No need call the doctor . If we run to the restaurant , I can make it to the restroom and you can order .
Are you sure you want to go ?
That is what we are pursuing .
We look forward to a further extension of our pleasant business relations .
A meeting will be arranged to negotiate the relevant stuff .
Hello . Is Becky there , please ?
Just a moment , please . I ' ll see if she ' s free .
Thanks .
Sorry , Becky can ' t come to the phone right now .
Good afternoon , would you mind if I sit here ?
Of course not .
I ' m Jack . What ' s your name ?
Laura .
Do you like this place ?
I don ' t think it ' s very nice . And my father doesn ' t like it . But my mother likes it very much . So we often come here .
How often ?
Well , we come here almost every month .
Who ' s that ?
It ' s my mother . She ' s fond of swimming . And the man beside her is my father .
Do you like swimming ?
What's your new girlfriend like ?
Katherine ? Well , she's good at languages .
Does she know how to speak Spanish ?
She knows how to speak Spanish and Japanese .
Wow ! ! !
And she's good at sports , too . She knows how to play tennis and basketball .
That's terrific !
But there's one thing she's not good at .
What's that ?
Oh !
What fools we were !
To think of it ! All my old silver ! It meant so much to me .
And my new car . To think that he simply drove off with everything in my car . That's what hurts me most .
What's so terrible too , is the fools we've made of ourselves .
I hardly dare call the police . They'll just laugh at us .
I'll never get over it . Oh , Harry , it was all so unnecessary . That man ! ! How could he do this to us after we'd put him up ?
I feel terrible sick , miss . I wonder if I could change my seat to the front part .
Please wait a moment .. I am sorry right now there is no vacant seat . I have to ask .
Thank you .
I'm so busy . I don't know how will get this done .
Shall we sing with a karaoke ?
Great idea ! I do it every so often .
For us , karaoke is becoming a popular entertainment .
Yep . If you are a good singer , your audience will feel comfortable , right ?
I can not agree with you more . And if you are an awful one , that will be funny .
I remembered Tom is always out of tune . We burst into laughter .
Is that true ? Shall we invite him to join with us ?
My accounts go where I go . Vince knows that .
Wow . You are a real snake .
It's business , Dave .
I know , I know . Kill , or die , right ?
Right . The faint of heart should not apply .
I really feel sorry for that rhumba boy if he ever identifies himself .
have you ever thought about your ideal home ?
I have , actually ; I ' Ve always wanted to build my dream home myself .
what would it be like ?
well , it would be spacious and located next to a park , because a nice view is important to me .
how many rooms would it have ?
I ' d want it to have three bedrooms on a second floor with balconies on each , and one main bedroom on the main floor with an attached en suite . I ' d also want a large living room and kitchen connected t
how many bedrooms would your dream home have ?
I ' d have one guest bathroom in the basement , one attached to the main bedroom , and one upstairs , so a total of three .
how would you decorate your house ?
I don ' t like a lot of clutter , so I wouldn ' t have lots of things out . I would have a few vases on the mantel piece and some pictures of my family on the walls , but other than that , most things would b
how many TVs would your dream home have ?
What ?
What happened with that guy at the cafe ?
nothing
But you ' re crazy about him ?
Yes , I am .
Why don ' t you run off with him ? What are you waiting for ?
I don ' t actually know him .
Really ?
I only know him through the ... you are not gonna believe this .
Oh , let me guess . Through the internet ?
Yes .
Are you studying here ?
Yes , I am studying in Eastern Asian language department .
What are you majoring in ?
I major in Japanese .
What do you think of the literature course ?
Excuse me ! Do you know of any hotel nearby ?
Yes . There are the Huangshan Hotel and Anshan Hotel nearby . And you can take a taxi to go there .
OK , I see . Thank you !
You're welcome ! By the way , you'd better booked in the Internet or the telephone next time and then you kow whether there are rooms available or not .
Sorry to have smoked in your room .
Don ' t worry . I ' ll open the window .
It ' s very kind of you .
Smoking is harmful for your health .
Where do we get off at ?
I think we have a little ways to go .
This bus ride is taking forever .
I know .
Did we miss our stop ?
I'm not sure .
Didn't you say you knew where to get off the bus ?
I don't know . We may have missed our stop .
Are you serious ?
Yeah , we did miss it .
I can't catch the bus with you anymore .
Hello , May I help you ?
Yes , we're interested in seeing the rooms for rent .
Oh , how nice ! There are bright rooms and the house is very quiet .
That is exactly what we're looking for .
Well , each room is 40 dollars a week .
That sounds all right to us .
When do you want to move in ?
How about tomorrow afternoon ?
Fine , I'll be expecting you .
Did you hear who won the election ?
I can ' t believe that Obama won .
I couldn ' t be happier to know that he ' s our new President .
I know ! He just made history !
You voted for him , right ?
I did . Did you ?
I voted for him .
I am so happy that he is our new President !
So am I .
I hope that he brings change to America .
I have faith in him .
Could you give me some advice ?
The dress is made on your measurement .
It feels all right . But if it were a darker color , I will like it better .
Do you have any other questions ?
I want to know about fees .
Which fees ?
Overdraft fees .
You will be required to pay a small fee for every time you overdraft .
How much is the fee ?
You'll have to pay $ 25 every time you overdraft .
That ' s a small fee ?
It should stop you from overdrafting .
You would think it would , but it most likely won ' t .
Can I help you with anything else ?
What time do you have ?
A quarter past five .
I must be off now . I'm pressed for time .
Good afternoon !
Hi , how are you doing ?
Fine , thanks . I am Wang Lin .
Glad to meet you , Wang Lin . I am Mary .
Is this your first time in Beijing ?
Yes . My company has an office here , and I have just been transferred .
Here is my phone number . If you need anyone to show you around , call me .
What day is today ?
It's Thursday , I think .
Tomorrow is Friday . It's going to be the weekend .
We're busy on weekdays , but we'll have a good rest at the weekend .
What shall I call him ?
Oh , you may call him Uncle , or Henry .
What's he doing ?
Hello , is that John ?
Yes . What can I do for you ?
I am calling to tell you some issues about the interview .
The volume is too loud . Would you kindly turn it down a little bit ?
How much are you planning to buy ?
Well , it's not how much , but what I'm going to buy that matters . I'm going ski shopping !
Cool ! Can I come ?
No . The front seat folds down all the way so there's just enough space for the skis ...
But not enough space for me ?
Not unless you lose about 100 pounds ...
There is a tornado warning on . My mother just told me she heard it on the radio .
What is a tornado warning ?
It means that a tornado has been seen somewhere in the area .
Really ? In New Berlin ?
No . Not necessarily in town . But in southern Wisconsin somewhere . A tornado has been spotted . They have two stages here . This is what is called a " tornado watch . " That means that the weather conditions are perfect for a tornado .
I understand . They think a tornado might come .
Yes . People should look out , because maybe there will be tornadoes coming . So it's called a " watch . "
And the second stage is called a " tornado warning " .
Yes . If a tornado has been spotted , they announce a " tornado warning " . So if there's a tornado warning on , it means a tornado is out there somewhere .
It's scary .
Well . Tornadoes can be dangerous , it's true . If we hear something like a loud train coming , then we have to go in the basement .
What do you mean " a loud train " ?
That is what tornadoes sound like . They sound like trains . They're very loud .
But if you hear them coming , isn't it already too late ?
Maybe . It depends on the tornado . Some can move across the ground at 200 miles an hour . That is very fast . Others aren't so fast .
Have you seen a lot of them ?
I've only seen one in my life . I was looking out the window . It was around two miles away . It was very interesting to watch . But it was heading toward my friend's house . So I quickly called them on the phone .
Did it hit their house ?
No , it didn't . But they are glad I called them .
What were they doing when you called ?
They were all sitting in the living room watching TV . They had no idea a tornado was coming toward their house . If it had hit them , they could have all been killed .
That's terrible . Do many people die in tornadoes ?
hi , betty !
hi , Andy , how are you finding your new job ?
pretty good . My colleagues seem alright . So far everything is great .
that's nice . What do they have you doing over there ?
well , I work in the marketing department . The corporate culture is totally different from my last employer . Before , when I was assigned a task , I was totally on my own but here most of the work is don
that ' s really good . It's very important to feel like you are part of the team at work .
indeed . Team work is highly valued in this new company . I like our boss too . He is easy to get along with treats everybody with respect and appreciation . He's highly respected by all his employees .
that's great , that's good for a positive work environment and helps motivate employees . I wish my boss was like that .
true , take my former supervisor as an example . He was extremely controlling and overbearing . He always had to micromanage everything .
well , now you don't have to worry about that . This new place sounds really good .
I had a terrible journey back from Bangkok last week .
Really ? Why ? What happened ?
Well , first of all , the taxi that was taking me from the client's office to the airport broke down on the freeway .
Oh , no .
Yes , and the driver didn't speak any English or Chinese and he didn't have a phone on him-can you believe it ? - and his radio didn't work . So there was no way he could get in touch with the office to get them to send another taxi .
So what did you do ?
Well , I actually thumbed a lift .
You what ?
Yes , I stood on the side of the freeway and stuck my thumb out , and a passing truck stopped and took me to the airport .
Wow , good for you .
Yes , except he drove really slowly , and I missed my flight .
Oh , no !
Yes , so I had to wait three hours for the next one . I didn't get home till four in the morning , and when I got home I realized I'd left my house keys in my hotel in Bangkok .
You really have bad luck , don't you ?
Look , my clothes are wet .
Mine are wet , too .
Unexpectedly , a girl threw a bucket of water on me .
She wished good luck to you .
The Dai people are enthusiastic .
Is there a train leaving for Philadelphia ?
Yeah . There ' s an express that leaves in twenty minutes .
May I buy a ticket here at the station ?
Sure .
Where ?
Go to window number eleven .
Fill it up with premium , please .
Sure . Should I check your radiator ?
No , that's OK . How much do I owe you ?
Have you ever served in any international trading company ?
Yes . I once worked in a small company for one year .
Then why did you leave ?
My reason for leaving is that I wish to get into the advertising business .
What have you learnt from this short experience ?
Our maths teacher is rather humorous .
On the contrary , I think he's very serious .
No , not at all . His examples are really interesting .
So they're easy to remember .
Yeah , how about your maths teacher ?
He's an old antique , very serious .
Bad luck , Anne .
Hey ! How about your history teacher ?
She's another antique .
Can I help you ?
Yes , how much is the teapot ?
Two hundred and thirty yuan .
I'm afraid I haven't got enough money on me .
You can come later .
What's the time now ?
It's half past seven .
I want to know at what time you close .
We offer 24 - hour service .
Say , do you go to see your grandparents often ?
Of course , my grandpa is generous and kind . My grandma cooks the most delicious Chinese dishes in the world .
What do you think of the speech the man delivered just now ?
Don't believe him . He's a liar .
We cannot expect politics to be true anyway .
Would you like to have dinner with me tonight ?
Sorry , I have to work overtime .
You are really career minded .
I see by your resume that you have just graduated from college . I assume you haven't had any working experience . Is that right ?
That's right . I've only had some part-time jobs working in department stores .
Well , experience is not important in this job . We are looking for a man we can train to be a teller . By the way , do you like to work with figures ?
Yes , I liked math in school .
We are more interested in finding someone who is alert and quick at figures . Do you like meeting the public ?
Yes , I enjoy working with people .
We have very pleasant working conditions and I think we have a fine staff to work with . You would be assigned an experienced employee to help you . He would be responsible for training you . Have you studied English conversation ?
Yes , I had an American tutor for two years . I had two lessons under her every week . Would I be using English every day is this job ?
Yes , many of our customers are Americans , so you would be speaking English with most of them . Do you know anything about various kinds of savings and checking accounts ?
No , I'm afraid I don't . I'd be glad to learn .
How do you usually part your hair ?
To the right .
( The hair stylist cuts the customer's hair . ) Almost done . I just have to even things up a bit . ( She shows the customer the results . ) Will that do ?
Looks good .
Would you like a shave ?
No , thanks .
Okay , let me brush you off . Thank you very much for coming .
Here is the song list .
Do you have any English songs ?
Yes , here you are .
Let me have a look . Everything I do I do it for you ,  Unchained melody ,  My heart will go on . Oh , and I ' d like to try Everything I do I do it for you .
Let me play it for you .
Is it easy to locate it ?
It's very easy . Here it is . Ready ? Excellent ! You are a good singer . You sing the bass so well .
I used to be a better singer . I haven't sung in the Karaoke for a long time . It's your turn .
I'll sing a Chinese folk song Love song of Hanging , first in Chinese then in English .
Hello , darling ! Did you have a good day today ?
It was okay .
Would you like a drink ?
No thanks , I'm not thirsty .
Dinner will be ready at six . Are you hungry ?
Not really .
Oh . Did you pick up the suits from the cleaners ?
Yes I did .
Good . Are you going to the pub tonight ?
Room service . What can I do for you ?
I would like to have an international call to Paris . Can you tell how to do it ?
Yes . In that case , you should connect the operator and he will connect you with the one you want .
Well , what is the operator's number ?
543210 .
How do you like the food ?
It tastes really great . Did you cook it ?
Yes . I made it this afternoon . Would you like some more ?
OK , just a little though . I'm really full .
Oh . Would you like some soup instead ?
What kind is it ?
Tomato and rice . Have you had that before ?
No . This is my first time . How does it taste ?
It's good , try it . What do you think ?
Wow . It is good . Did you make that also ?
Yes .
You're a really good cook .
Thanks , next time I'll make chicken soup for us .
That sounds good . Did you study cooking in school ?
You have any ideas as to what you want to do this weekend ?
I'm going to the movie theater with my friend . What are you going to do ?
I'm not quite sure yet .
How about you see a movie with me and my friend ?
What movie are you and your friend planning on watching ?
Not sure . Is there a movie out that catches your eye ?
No good movies come to mind .
Have you decided whether or not you would like to go ?
No , thanks . Maybe another time .
Shall we share a taxi ?
Where are you heading now ?
I want to go back to my college on the Huanghe road . It is very close to your house .
Is that the university next to the Teachers ' College ?
That's the one .
You mean we'll share the taxi ?
Yeah . If we share the cab , it'll be cheaper . Besides that your Chinese is better than mine . The drivers usually have difficulty understanding me even though I practice my pronunciation carefully .
I was wondering if you could help me to get a library card .
Of course , just fill out this form and let me know when you are finished .
I'm finished .
I will also need your driver's license ; hand me the filled-out form , please .
OK , the form is all filled out .
Perfect ! Do you know the hours and rules for the library ?
No , I have no idea what they are .
Everything you need to know is printed on the card and handout .
Yes , right .
It's your turn , sir . Sorry to keep you waiting .
That's all right .
How do you want your hair cut ? Any particular way ?
I'd just like a trim and don't make it too short .
How about the sides ?
That way they look longer .
Now what are you doing ?
Putting on mascara .
Nasty . You'd better not rub your eyes .
I won't .
How do you like skiing , Pat ?
I love it . All my life I wanted to learn to ski . Finally I took lessons last year .
I suppose skiing is easy for you .
No , quite the opposite . I thought I'd never stop falling down . Then all of a sudden I started skiing much better .
I see . Do you ski often ?
Every chance I get . On weekends I ski all day long . Sometimes I even ski at night .
That sounds great .
Oh , yes . The ski slopes are well lit . It's really nice to ski at night . Why don't you learn to ski ?
Not on your life ! I know I'd break my leg
Honey , have you all packed ?
Almost ready . I am making a double check .
It is cold on the mountain . Have you packed the windshelled clothes and bodywarmers ?
Of course . And I have also packed two umbrellas just in case of raining .
You are so thoughtful . Do you think our tent will be working well ?
Of course . I just bought it last year .
What about our mobile phones and cameras ? Did you charge them last night ?
Yes , I did . Don't worry .
Good . We should tell our neighbour that they can call the police if some emergency happens to us .
Evan , are you busy right now ?
Not really . What ' s up ?
Well , I need a hand with the fax machine . My fax is not going through .
I ' m kind of useless in that area , but I ' ll take a look at it .
What did you think of the film ?
I liked it . I thought it was great .
Yes , I liked it , too . Did you like the acting ?
Yes . I thought it was excellent . Didn't you ?
Not really . I thought it was disappointing .
It's a nice cinema , isn't it ?
It is obvious that their government is nursing the hope of having all other countries over a barrel and bring them completely under their control .
It ' s a typical of them to do so .
What can we do ?
Can you tell me how to reach the bank please ?
Which bank ? There are two , the Allied Irish Bank and the Bank of Ireland .
I have an AIR pass card and I want to withdraw money from the bank .
You need to go to the Allied Irish Bank which is near the local shopping centre , Dunned Stores .
How do I get there . I have no knowledge of this area .
Cross the road and turn left at the other side . Walk along the footpath until you reach the traffic lights . You will see a shopping centre on the right hand side . Walk across the road and turn right after the shopping centre . Keep going straight for about 100m and the bank is to your left .
It sounds very complicated . How far is it from here ?
It's not so complicated . It's about five minutes walk from here . I can draw a map for you if you wish .
Oh , I would really appreciate that . By the way will I be going North or South ?
I think he deserved his gold .
Did you see his last dive ?
Yes , it's perfect !
Hey , David . Where did you get the sofa ? It's so beautiful . Look at the color , I really love this yellow , so bright ! It must be very expensive .
Not really . To be honest , it's very cheap . I only spent $ 100 .
Are you kidding ? $ 100 for this big leather sofa ?
Yes . I bought it in Johnson thrift store .
Is it a used one ?
Yes , it is .
This city is far too polluted . We should do something about it .
How can I help you ?
I'd like to buy some perfume for my girlfriend .
Do you know what kind of scent she usually wears ?
She usually doesn't wear anything but a few drops of Chanel No . 5 . But I'd like to buy her a new Fragrance .
OK , here are some of our most popular perfumes .
Which one would you recommend ?
Personally , I quite like the new perfume from Clinique . It's a subtle flowery scent . What do you think ?
That smells great . I'll take one bottle , please .
Would you like to buy any other cosmetics for your girlfriend ? We have a full range of products from cosmetics to skin cleansers and moisturizers .
It's OK . She normally just wears a little foundation and some loose powder , and I don't know what shade to buy .
How about some lipstick ? Every woman needs a nice tube of lipstick .
She doesn't usually wear lipstick . She thinks it makes her nose look too big .
How about some mascara ? That will make her eyes look bigger .
No , thank you . She has big enough eyes as it is .
I know what she would like-some whitening cream .
No thanks . Western women usually try to make their skin darker , not lighter .
Will that be all then ?
Good morning , Mr Bell . How are you today ? Are you here to sort out your L / C documents ?
Yes . I've been through them and there's a problem , a rather major discrepancy actually . You see ? It should be KN509 .
I see , here it says KM509 .
Exactly , if we accept these it could cause a lot of problems in our record and our accounts system because the numbers don't match .
To get around your difficulty , Mr Smith . I'd suggest that you reduce your order by half . You can send in an additional order later .
Well , I'll consider the possibility . By the way , when do I have to open the L / C if I want the goods to be delivered in June .
A month before the time you want the goods to be delivered .
Could you possibly effect shipment more promptly ?
Getting the goods ready , making out the documents and booking the shipping space , all this takes time you know . You cannot expect us to make delivery in less than a month .
Very well , Mr Zhang . I'll not reduce my order . I'll take the full quantity you offer . And I'll arrange for the L / C to be opened in your favor as soon as I get home .
When will that be ?
Early next month . In the meantime , I should be very pleased if you would get everything ready . I hope that the goods can be dispatched promptly after you get my L / CB
Hello , back already ? That was quick !
Yes , luckily our office is just down the street .
Great . I shall also need a copy of your own ID and the Warrant Letter , you can fill in one here .
Oh , I see .
Thank you for calling ABC Company , may I help you ?
I ' m Liu Yi . I ' d like to speak to Mr . Smith .
Sorry , we have two Smiths , Robert Smith and James Smith , which one would you like to speak to ?
I ' d like to speak with Mr . Robert Smith .
Good morning , can I help you ?
Yes , could I settle my bill , please ?
Yes . of course . May I have your name and your room number , please ?
Wang Wei , Room 1202 .
OK , Mr . Wang , here is your bill . The total amount is US $ 120 .
The figure seems right .
How do you wish to settle your account , sir ?
By credit card , please . And what kind of credit cards do you honor ?
We accept Master Card , American Express and Visa .
Then I'll put it on my Master Card . Here you are .
Your English has really improved in the two months you've been here , too .
Do you have to work late at the computer company again tonight ?
No , I'm going to leave the office early today . My annual medical check-up is this afternoon .
How much longer will Mr . Schmidt be up in the mountains ?
We will carry out the order when the purchase order gets here .
Good . And because this is our initial order , and your products is so new , we would like to make a deal with you .
Well , actually in most cases we don't talk about special deals , but since this one is so new I will listen to what you have to say .
We want to make this a trial order . If we can sell all the products in two months , we will pay for them ; if not , we will send them back to you .
I can't agree to that . My company will have to pay for both sending them and bringing them back .
We promise that if the products are sold out in two months , we will place a repeat order right away , at the same quality .
Susan ? What brings you here today ?
Well , I ' Ve got some papers due .
Really ? So what ' s the news ?
Do you like plum blossoms ?
Certainly . I prefer the winter and I love plum blossoms much more .
It's snowing heavily . What about taking a walk ?
Seeking plum blossoms with stepping on the snow ? That's a good idea . Let's go !
What a heavy snow !
Take care ! Don't slip down to the ground .
I've got it . I like the sound of stepping on the snow very much .
Yes . Very wonderful .
Do you smell the sweet scent ?
Yes . It should be the fragrance of plum blossoms .
I guess you should know that you need to be hospitalized .
Of course I know .
Now you can go to the in-patient department to go through the admission procedures .
OK . I'll go right now . By the way , do you think I ' ll have to stay in the hospital for long ?
It's hard to say . It depends on your recovery condition . But you need to stay for at least one day for observation .
Thank you , Doctor . I will go now . Bye-bye .
Jenny , you should go to bed now .
But it's still early .
Don't stay up late .
But Day . I'm not sleepy .
Ernie , I'm really excited about starting this band together . We're going to be the two coolest students on campus .
I know ! It's gonna be great . But what kind of music do you think we should play ?
That's a good question . You know I love hip hop , so maybe we can play some Vanilla Ice songs .
Hmm ... Vanilla Ice ? I know his most famous song , " Ice Ice Baby , " but I don't know his other songs .
Good evening , sir . What's your pleasure this evening ? Your usual ?
Yes . I'm going to stay with the same , a beer .
Certainly , a beer . Here you are , sir .
Oh , darn . Look what I've done . ( Spill the drink )
I ' Ve just take out an insurance policy . Are you insured ?
Yes , I am . I have life insurance and my home and its contents are also insured .
I took out a life insurance policy and make my wife beneficiary .
That ' s a good idea . You are a fireman and it can be a dangerous job .
I need to make sure that my wife will be financially secure if I die .
I can terminate my life insurance policy when I retire and use the money as a pension .
That ' s one of the conditions of my policy too . It covers you if you die before you retire and when you retire .
Did you have to take a medical before you could take out the policy ?
Good morning . More Hotel . At your service .
good morning ! I'd like to make a reservation , please . Do you have any rooms available for the next week ?
All right . Single-room or double-room ?
Double-room , please . It's for an American couple .
Hold on , please . Let me check the bookings . Yes , we have double-rooms available . What kind of room would you like , sir ?
I'd like a room with a nice view , please .
We have a nice garden-view room .
Good . I'll take that one . Is there a bar in your hotel ?
Yes , sir . And there is also a party going on each Saturday night in the bar till next morning .
Party all night ? Hotel California ? No kidding . Anyway , what's the room charge ?
888 Yuan per night . With breakfast . " Northern Star " buffet ! What's there arriving time ?
They turn up around 4p . m . next Monday , and they check out on next Sunday .
I see . May I have your name and phone number ?
John , have you ever watched Beijing Opera ?
Yes , I watched once .
What do you think of it ?
Well , honestly speaking , I went to watch it out of curiosity . I ' d say it ' s really a special art form .
I couldn ' t agree more . Actually , I ' m a Beijing Opera fan .
Welcome to Lincoln Bank . Are you a new customer ?
Yes , I am . I opened an account with you about a month ago , but today I'm here to see about a loan of some kind .
I see . As you don't have a long history with us , we will have to check your credit rating with your previous bank before we can promise any loan to you .
Yes , that's fine . My credit is good ; I banked at my former bank for many years .
May I ask why you decided to switch your account to us ?
Haha ! Actually , I felt that your array of services is much better than what my old bank had on offer . Plus , I've got plenty of friends who bank with you and they are extremely happy .
We always welcome new business . If you can give me the details of your former bank , including your account number we can begin .
Where to , ma'am ?
The Grand Hotel .
The Grand Hotel ?
Yes . Do you know where it is ?
No , Madam . I don't think I do .
It's the 11th Avenue , Park Street .
Hello , Fife Computers . How can I help ?
Hello , this is the Corporate Department of Lincoln Bank calling . We are calling to let you know that some documents have arrived for you at our bank .
Oh , really ? Do you know which company they are from ?
They're from Schnitt's of Rudesheim , Germany . Would you like us to check them ?
What's the charge for that ?
It's 150 RIB for the service .
Hi , are you busy ?
Hi , I was just coming to see you . But since you made the trek to my office , you get to go first .
Okay , I'm putting together a report on the Allied Marketing Co . failure , and I seem to have run into a stone wall . Can you help me out ?
Well , I can try , what do you need ?
You were there when the problem started . I was hoping you could fill me in on the details .
Sure , no problem . But I need something from you .
Name it .
I'm supposed to have this package ready for mailing out tomorrow morning and I'm miles away from being ready . Can you edit this product study I wrote while I do these ?
All right , I can do that , and as soon as we finish this , we can both work on my problem .
That works for me .
Give me the study . I'll start as soon as I get back to my office .
You sure are buying a lot of things online .
Yes , I ordered a camera and some personal care stuff online yesterday . They will be delivered in two weeks .
What are the advantages of buying online ?
Sometimes you can save money and you can find things that you had difficulty finding in a store . sometimes it's just convenient , like doing it late at night and sometimes it's just fun .
I was just thinking to call you , then the phone rang and it was you calling me .
What do you like to do in your spare time ?
I am a girl of many interests . I like dance , chess , collecting stamps , travelling and taking photos .
What kind of dance do you like ?
I like rumba and tango .
Great . I am not interested in Chinese chess . It is too difficult for me .
You can learn Chinese checkers or military chess . Both of them are much easier .
OK , I will try . As for stamp , don't you think it is an expensive hobby ?
Yes , it is . But it is full of fun and knowledge . What about you , what do you like to do as hobby ?
I like gardening . I take care of them everyday . I like those flowers and the swing in my garden . If the weather is nice , I would like to lie on the lawn .
I'm checking out now . Can I have my bill , please ?
Sure . What's your room number , sir ?
It's 8736 . Here is my key card .
A minute , please . It's 6212 yuan all together . Tax included .
Can I pay with traveler's check ?
Sure . Can I have your passport , please ?
Here you are .
Thanks . Are you satisfied with your stay here with us , sir ?
Very much . The room is cozy and the service is jolly good . By the way , could you deliver my luggage to the airport in advance ?
Sure . It will be taken care of , sir . Which flight do you take ?
Flight 17 . And my luggage should be delivered there by 4 o'clock .
Got it , sir . It'd be great to see you again , sir .
Hello .
Hello , Claire . This is Mick .
Mick ! Nice to hear from you again . How are you ?
Fine , thanks . And you ?
Oh , not so bad . I've been very busy , but I'm going away on holiday soon .
Good . Listen . I'm phoning because I want to invite you to a party . At our Newhouse . And . .
New house ? Really ?
Yes . We've moved . That's why we're giving the party . Can you come ?
Well , that depends . When is it ?
This Saturday evening .
Well . . . I'm going away on Sunday morning . Very early . Will the party go Convery late ?
Until two in the morning . But you don't have to stay that long . Well ? What about it ?
All right . I'll come . But I'd like to bring a present Something for your new house . What would you like ?
Nothing . I mean , don't bring anything . It isn't necessary .
But I'd still like ...
Just bring yourself ! I'm looking forward to seeingyou again . It's been a long time !
Yes , it has . I'm looking forward to seeing you . too . and your new house . Uh . . . when does the party start ?
Come any time after eight . All right ? .
Yes . Oh . by the W ..
Bye ! See you on Saturday evening .
Oh , hi Pam . When did you get back from Canada ? How was it ?
The day before yesterday . I only visited Montreal and Ottawa , but I had a great time .
Which city did you like better ?
That's hard to say ... I think Ottawa is prettier . It has better sightseeing , too . A lot of museums and galleries .
And what's Montreal like ? What did you think of it ?
Montreal is more exciting . It has better shopping . The stores are cheaper and more interesting .
Which one has better nightlife ?
Oh , Montreal of sure . It has more restaurants and clubs . They say Montreal is the most exciting city in Canada .
Did you put this morning's faxes on my desk ? I'm waiting for some urgent faxes from headquarters , I'm pretty sure they came in last night .
Everything that came in off the fax machine last night is all on your desk . But I noticed that some of the faxes came through pretty blurred . Maybe you can take a look at them . If the copy is unreadable , I'll call them and ask them to relax .
Yeah , you're going to have to call them and get them to be re-faxed . These copies are so dark , I can't make out any of the words .
What about that one ?
This one ? This one is so light I can barely read it . How can that be ?
You know , I think the fax machine is out of toner , I can change the toner cartridge . That should solve the problem .
Yes , but this one will have to be re-faxed as well . And look , there's about three pages missing ! It looks loke the fax machine ate half my important faxes , and the ones that made it through are so blurred or too light , they're unreadable !
I believe you ordered the Grand Slam breakfast .
Oh , good ! You know , I am looking at my plate and I ordered scrambled eggs , not fried .
Oh , I just noticed that I accidentally brought you your friend's breakfast .
I can just trade with him , thank you .
And pancakes for you , sir .
I am sorry , but I think I ordered waffles .
I am sorry that I misheard you .
Just please take my pancakes to trade for waffles . While I am waiting , I will eat my bacon and eggs .
I will get straight back to you with your waffles .
Hi , Elvin . How are the new programmers I got for you ?
Stay away from me .
Are you still mad about your nose ? How is it ?
I'm serious , Zina . Back off . I have a bottle of pepper spray in my pocket .
That won't be necessary , Elvin . Look , I want to apologize for your nose . I'm sorry .
I want to make dinner tonight .
What are you thinking of making ?
I don't have any idea what to cook .
How about making a teriyaki bowl ?
Can you tell me how to make it ?
All it consists of is teriyaki beef and white rice .
Okay , but what do I have to do to prepare it ?
All you have to do is cook some white rice .
What do I do after that ?
Then cut up the beef and marinate it in teriyaki sauce .
What else do I have to do ?
Mom , I'm starving .
Here are some biscuits . Why are you back so early today ?
My teacher had a sudden stomachache , so the class was cut shot . You ?
Me what ?
You are cooking at least two hours earlier than the usual .
It's not for us .
Then it's for Dad , isn't it ? It's so unfair !
Don't be a smarty-pants . It's for Grandma Wang .
What was that again ?
It's for Grandma Wang . She is sick and her only daughter went abroad weeks ago . So she needs our help .
I'm sorry , I didn't know that . But I wanna help .
Umm , let me think for a moment . We can meet her together after I finish cooking .
I'll get knee to knee with her .
Which kinds of meat are most popular in your country ?
We eat a lot of chicken , pork and beef . You eat those meat a lot in your country too , don ' t you ?
Yes , we do . We also eat a lot of lamb .
Yes . I ' Ve heard that people in your country like to eat lamb chops .
That ' s right . They taste so good . We eat them with mint sauce . Have you ever tried them ?
Yes , I have . I tried them when I visited your country last year . I thought they were very tasty . Can you cook them ?
I certainly can . If I can get some from the butchers , I ' ll cook them for you .
That ' s really a let-down .
Yeah . He really does let me down .
But that should not be the reason for you to lose heart .
Joseph , who is that woman ?
That's Susan .
What does she do for work ?
She's a lawyer .
Is she American ?
No , but she speaks English fluently .
She's really tall . Do you know her ?
Yes , I know her . We're friends .
Who's that man standing next to her ?
Which man ?
That short guy on her right . What's his name ?
Oh , that's Matt .
He's really good looking .
Yeah .
Do you know him ?
I don't know him , but I think my sister does .
Is he married ?
Yes , he's married .
Where is the boss ? I need him to sign a few documents . I checked in his office , but he is not there . Is he out of the office now ?
Yes . Today is Tuesday , so the boss went off to his MBA seminar class . He is out of the office every Tuesday and Thursday mornings , and he has classes all day Saturday and Sunday .
What's he studying ?
He is finishing up a special continue education program for executives . He can continue working , taking a few of classes here and there , and in 2 years he will complete his MBA .
Sounds like a tiring schedule . He ' s probably got a lot of homework too , eh ?
The classes have him out of the office , so that is stressful for him . But as far as homework goes , it is a breeze for him .
Why is that ?
Is there a problem , officer ?
Did you notice that stop sign you ran through ?
I'm sorry , I didn't even notice it .
You didn't see it ?
I honestly couldn't see it because of the bushes growing over it .
That's true . Those bushes are a problem .
I swear that I didn't mean to run it .
I can understand why you didn't stop for it .
Are you going to give me a ticket today , sir ?
Under the circumstances , I think I'm just going to let you go with a warning .
Thanks a lot .
Hello . This is room 1205 . Our message lamp is flaming .
Hold on a minute , please .
Thank you .
I'm sorry to have kept you waiting . Mr . Jones needs a telephone call from you .
Would you bring the message to my room ?
I'm afraid we have nobody available at the moment .
Then I'll come down and pick up the message immediately .
Do you remember John from head office ?
Yes .
Have you heard what happened to him ?
No , what ?
He had his car stolen . Actually he was kidnapped while he was in the car .
What do you mean ?
Well , apparently , he was just getting into his car-he'd parked it in one of those underground multi-story things-he was just getting in and suddenly three guys with guns opened the back doors of the car and got in .
Crikey . Where did this happen ?
In Taichung , I think .
Oh , right , I hear they have a lot of this kind of problem down there .
Really ? Well , anyway , they pointed their guns at him and said , you know , keep calm and drive out . ... we don't want to hurt you ... we just want your car .
So what happened ?
Well , he drove out , and when he got to the booth to pay the attendant , he pretended to have an epileptic fit , you know , to scare the thieves away . The attendant was no help at all , even though the guys were holding guns in plain view , he did nothing .
That's terrible .
Yes , makes you think , doesn't it ?
So what happened next ?
Well , he kept on pretending to have a fit , so they freaked out and just ran away .
Well , he sure was lucky .
What do you think of smoking ?
It ' s harmful not only for yourself but for others .
What in your opinion can be done to stop smoking ?
Stop producing cigarettes .
But that ' ll affect the national economy .
That ' s right . But I don ' t think there are better ways .
How about painting a warning on each cigarette packet ?
I hope we could offer the most favorable terms .
I am sure you will find our prices are most competitive . Here is our offer . All the prices on the list are firm . If your order is a sizeable one , we could reconsider our prices .
Good . Is there any commission included ? We are commission agents .
As a rule , we don't allow any commission . However , as an encouragement for businesses , we will allow you a 3 % commission .
Ok . How about the earliest possible shipment ?
By the coming September .
Could you make an offer on FOB basis ?
That was a really good meal , Gordon .
It sure was . I couldn't eat another bite .
Well , it is getting pretty late . I think we should go home .
You're right . I have to get up early to go to work tomorrow .
Let's see how much the bill is .
Don't worry about it . Tonight is my treat .
What are you talking about ? We'll split the bill .
No , I insist . I kept telling you that I would treat you to dinner but I still haven't .
No way , Gordon . I know that you are a little short on cash at the moment . There's no need for you to pay for the whole bill .
Alright , if that's the way you are going to be , we'll split the bill .
That's better . This way we will both have money to take a cab home , otherwise , you would probably have to walk .
Just promise you will let me treat you to dinner next week , ok ?
You've got a deal .
Great . Bye .
I want to change rooms . In fact , I want a refund for tonight !
If you tell me the exact problem , I can be more helpful .
Cockroaches have declared war on my room !
Allow me to apologize . I'll give you another room right now , and a full refund for tonight .
Thank you for not asking me to collect the roaches in a jar as evidence .
What a great weekend that was !
My feeling's exactly .
I really enjoy the beach in the summer .
I couldn't agree with you more .
We should come here more often .
You are absolutely right .
So what do you feel like doing this evening ? How about going to the cinema ?
Ah , that's a good idea . But I heard the film club of our school would show a film for free . Maybe we don't need to go to the cinema .
That's good ! I've also heard there will be a party held by the Students ' Union tomorrow evening . Would you like to go with me tomorrow night ?
I'd like to , but I'm afraid I can't .
Why ? Do you have to prepare for your examination ? Oh , come on , girl , relaxation is also very important .
That's not the reason . I have to go to the English Corner tomorrow evening . You know , I've been going there every week .
Oh , God , I've forgotten it .
You said you wanted to improve your English , so how about coming with me tomorrow ? I can also introduce some friends to you .
Oh , no , I don't want to know any more geeks like you .
They are not geeks . They are also interested in singing , dancing , and so on . They are excellent , and they can always help me a lot .
Really ? Is there a foreign teacher for every class ?
It depends . If they are not busy , they will come to join us , and talk with us .
So you just talk all the time ?
Of course not . The foreign teachers also teach us English songs , and play games with us .
That sounds interesting . I'll go with you tomorrow evening .
Hello . Is this Ann ?
Yes , it is . Kelly ?
Yes , it's me .
Do you have a cold ?
No . Worse than that . I have a flu . I'm in bed with a fever .
Oh , no ! What about your presentation today ?
I'd like to do it , of course . But I just can't . I'm afraid I'd fall down in the middle of it .
I understand . What should I tell Mr . Morley ?
Why not just tell him I'm sick ? I'll ring him myself this afternoon .
Alright . Have you been to see a doctor ?
Not yet . I feel too lousy to go out . Anyway , I have a flu . I know what it is . I don't need a doctor to tell me that .
Do you think you'll be able to come in tomorrow ? Or should I call off your appointments for tomorrow too ?
I'm not sure yet . Maybe this will all be gone in a day . So it's probably better if you don't call off my appointments . I will call you later this afternoon and tell you what I think .
It's rainy weather today . Maybe it's better if you just stay inside . Make yourself some chicken soup and sleep .
Yes , that's what I plan to do . Except I won't make the chicken soup . Right now I don't think I could swallow more than a spoonful of it .
That bad , huh ?
Yeah , I'm very nauseous . It's mostly nausea and a fever .
Well , I'll cancel your appointments for today . And I'll tell Mr . Morley .
Thanks , Ann . Talk to you this afternoon .
I like this kind of weather .
Yes , a little breeze and a lovely moon .
And it's calm . I like the peace .
How good are you at sports , Bill ?
Are you kidding ? I ' m terrible ! But I love to watch sports . I go to football or baseball games a lot . And I read sports magazines every week .
Wow !
Do you like sports , Janice ?
Oh , yes . I like to exercise . But I don ' t watch sports or buy sports magazines . I don ' t have much time to do those things .
Oh , I see . You know , we spend time doing different sports . How much time do you spend exercising ?
Well , I guess I exercise about two hours a day . I do aerobics three times a week , and the other days I play badminton with my husband . I always feel good afterward .
That ' s great ! I ' Ve heard people say that before .
Well , why don ' t you try to get some exercise ? It ' s difficult , but very rewarding .
Hi , I'm calling about the ad in the paper .
Which ad would that be ?
For the job .
Good , which job is that ? We advertised several openings .
Oh ! It was for a market sale manager . Is that still available ?
Yes , it is . But we'll be making a decision on it pretty soon . Why don't you come in and fill out an application ?
What company is this for ? I mean where's the opening ?
We can discuss that when you come in and fill out the application .
Well , I'm already in this field and know most of the companies . Before I come in to fill out an application , I need to know who it's with so I know whether or not I'm willing to work with them .
I'm afraid I can't discuss that over the phone .
So you're a headhunter .
Do you really like this straw hat , dear ?
Yes , of course . I'll take it .
But it costs an arm and leg .
Where is our son , dear ?
He is in his bedroom . He has been in a bad mood after school .
What happened ? Have you talked with him ?
Jim , could you do me a favor ?
Sure , just ask . What can I do for you ?
My car has a problem starting . Could you please take a look at it for me ?
No sweat . It ' s a piece of cake .
Are you sure ?
Absolutely . I ' m a great mechanic .
Thanks for helping me out . I really appreciate it .
I think we should do the floors before we work on the curtains and walls .
Why ? it doesn't make sense . If we do the floors first , and then paint the walls , we will get paint all over our new floor .
Hmm Maybe you're right . But I can't stand all this green carpet here . And besides , I know how to paint . I will just cover everything with drop cloth . I won't get anything on the floor .
Are you sure ?
Yes , I'm sure I've done a lot of house painting in my life . And my mother was very picky . If I got even a tiny drop of paint on her furniture , she would get furious . So I learned to be very careful .
Alright . Then maybe we can do the floor first . These wood floors under this carpet are beautiful . And me too -- -- I can't wait to get all this old carpet out of here . But how can we get it out ? Do we have to hire someone ?
Absolutely not . We can remove the carpet ourselves . Carpet is held down with carpet nails . You just need to pull it hard and it will come up .
Great . Then , after we remove the carpet , we need to redo all the wood floors . Right ?
Yes . But we should hire someone for that . That will probably be expensive . And it has to be done right .
And then , after the floors are done , we can start to move our furniture in .
Hello , Helen .
Hi , Steven .
How are you today ?
I ' m very well , Thank you . And you ?
I ' m fine , thanks . How is Tony ?
He ' s fine , Thanks . How ' s Emma ?
She ' s very well , too , Helen . Goodbye , Helen . Nice to see you .
Could I see the manager please ? I have a complaint to make .
Yes , I ' m the manager here . What can I do for you , Madam ?
Did you have the room checked before we move in ?
Which room are you in ?
1808 . The toilet doesn ' t work properly . The water doesn ' t run in the shower .
I ' m awfully sorry to hear that . ( After checking ) I ' ll turn to it right away . I do apologize . We ' ll change your room to 2002 .
That ' s not bad . Thanks for your help .
Do I need a visa ?
No , I shouldn ' t think so . But you must take your passport of course .
Yes , I know . I must get my traveler ' s check and some foreign currency .
Yes , you need the traveler ' s check but you needn ' t get any foreign currency . You can have my US Dollars , I don ' t need them .
Really ? That ' s very good of you , Helen . But I must get a new suitcase , my old one needs repairing .
You needn ' t buy one . You can have mine .
That ' s very kind of you , Helen . I hope you don ' t mind my leaving you like this . I need a holiday . It won ' t be long .
You'll soon graduate from your university . Do you have any plans for the future ?
I'm planning to go to graduate school , but I also want to find a job . Otherwise , I'll have nowhere to go if I fail the entrance exam .
Do you have a clear career path to follow ?
career path ? I'm not sure .
what kind of job do you want after graduation ?
I want to become a professor , a lawyer , an editor , a civil servant ...
wait ! You can't do so many things at the same time . What exactly do you want ?
I don't know . Do you have any advice for me ?
yeah , you should first decide what kind of career you really want , plan your career path , and then try your best to achieve your goal .
I think perhaps I need to buy a few years while I figure out about my career .
no , you can't waste your time wandering around . If you want a job that requires a higher degree or diploma , you should focus on your graduate school entrance exam ; if you want a job that needs working
you're finally here ! What took so long ?
I got stuck in traffic again . There was a terrible traffic jam near the Carrefour intersection .
it's always rather congested down there during rush hour . Maybe you should try to find a different route to get home .
I don't think it can be avoided , to be honest .
perhaps it would be better if you started taking public transport system to work .
I think it's something that I'll have to consider . The public transport system is pretty good .
it would be better for the environment , too .
I know . I feel bad about how much my car is adding to the pollution problem in this city .
taking the subway would be a lot less stressful than driving as well .
the only problem is that I'm going to really miss having the freedom that you have with a car .
well , when it's nicer outside , you can start biking to work . That will give you just as much freedom as your car usually provides .
that's true . I could certainly use the exercise !
so , are you going to quit driving to work then ?
Hi , Mike , what gives ?
Hi , Bill , this is my new car .
Hey , great set of wheels .
You like it , huh ?
Who wouldn't ? Wow , that's out of this world .
It is special , isn't it ?
Yeah , too cool . How much did they sold you for ?
Lots . Looks like I'll have to moonlight for the next two years .
I can imagine .
Hey , let's go for a spin . You can try it out .
I'd love to .
Waiter , bring me the menu , will you ?
Just a moment , I'm coming . ( ten minutes later ) . Now , what would you like ?
I'd like to see the menu . Would you get me one , please ?
Yes , certainly . Here you are .
Thank you . Ah ! But this is in French . Would you mind giving me the English menu ?
It's written in English too , in smaller print . There .
Thanks . I'll need a while to choose . Could you come back in a minute ?
Right . ( five minutes later ) Now , what are you having ?
I'm sorry , I haven't decided yet . Do you mind giving me a couple of minutes ?
Would you please bring us a menu ?
Sure . What would you want to have today , Chinese food or western food ?
Western food .
I wish our competition will quit poaching our people , when Susan resigned last week to work for the Sunburst , she was our fourth employee to leave us for them .
Have you ever considered that perhaps we have a morale problem among our employees ? If everyone is discontent with their work , of course they won't stick arround .
Well , those do leave will soon find out the grass isn't as green on the other side of sense as they thought it was , I know Sunburst is suffering from inbreeding .
Inbreeding is a big drawback from snitching most of their employers from one or two companies .
With Susan leaving , we should probably look to someone new on board .
Our human resource department is working on it , it's not easy to recruit new employees every few month , it's hard to find qualified people .
Which team has won ?
Neither . The game ended in two all .
But I still think AC milan's defence seems better organized .
Kids are always difficult to control .
True . When I tell my kids to behaves themselves , they will make a face and slip away .
Karen , do you have a minute ? I'd like to ask you about something .
Sure . What is it ?
I think you can give me some advice . You have worked here longer , and I just want to know what you think .
I'm glad to help you . But what is it you want to ask about ?
I am worried about the meeting this morning .
Why ? I think the meeting went well .
Really ?
Yes . But what are you worried about ?
I'm afraid I was too rude .
Rude ? You weren't rude at all , Annie . Why do you think you were rude ?
Well , I maybe talked to Mr . Drummond too directly . I thought I maybe said too much . I don't want him to be angry .
I understand . But really you weren't rude at all . You said what you thought . I think he appreciates that .
Really ?
Yes .
But I am new here , and I'm not sure he is used to that .
You mean because you are a woman ?
Yes . And he is the president of the company .
Listen , Annie . You shouldn't worry about Mr . Drummond . He is a very good man to work for . He is not sexist at all . He appreciates people for their ideas . And he is willing to take suggestions from men or women .
I am very happy to hear that , Karen . It ' s good to know I'm working in such a company .
I agree with you on that , Annie . I've worked for Derek Drummond for nine years now . I feel he appreciates his employees for their work , not their gender . I would never change jobs .
Good . Thank you for telling me this .
Can I help you , sir ?
Uh , yes . I'm going to the States and I need some traveler's checks .
All right . How much do you need ?
One thousand U . S . dollars .
One thousand U . S . Mm hmm . And are you going to pay cash ?
Oh , no . I want to withdraw from my U . S . dollars savings account .
All right . Now can I have your passbook ?
Right . Here it is .
Thank you . And what amounts do you want the checks in ?
Some people are always closing their handsets , so it's difficult to inform them .
Why not send them short messages ?
Can short messages reach them ?
Short messages will be kept in the short messages center . Once they open the handsets they will receive them , which is better than you can't find them .
Why haven't I thought of this skill ?
I use short messages quite a lot . If it's not too complicated I will send a short message , which can save much phone charge .
I am informed that many people used short messages to pay a New Year call , and only on the Spring Festival it amounted to 1 billion this year , didn't it ?
Nice weather , honey !
The days are getting longer !
May and Daniel often like this kind of weather .
Yeah , they can enjoy themselves in the day time and it is not so hot .
Honey , how about taking them to the beach this weekend ?
That's great !
Since last time we've climbed the mountain , we haven't gone out for a long time .
And this kind of weather is rare for the season either .
Yes , I remember last year this time , the weather is so hot .
So we must seize this chance to go the beach .
Daniel loves the beach very much !
Let's go !
Hi , I ' m Ray , your tenant in Room 209 .
Hi . What ' s up ?
There ' re some problems in my apartment . First , the faucet in the bathtub drips constantly .
Okay , I ' ll ask my plumber to come by and fix it today . What else ?
One of the burners on the stove doesn ' t work .
What ' s the matter with it ?
I can ' t control the temperature .
I ' ll get an electrician to repair it as soon as possible . Is that everything ?
Well , there ' s one more thing . The telephone is dead .
I ' m sorry . There ' s nothing I can do about that . You ' Ve got to call the phone company .
Okay . Thank you very much .
Hello , sir . Can I help you ?
Yes . I ' m looking for a winter jacket .
What size are you looking for ?
A medium is fine for me .
How about this one ?
I don ' t like the color .
What color do you like ?
Blue .
How about that one ?
Yes . It ' s nice . Can I try it on ?
Sure . There is a changing room behind you .
What do you think about studying in the U . S . ?
Well , for many international students , coming to the United States and living here and studying can be quite a daunting experience , especially when finding a house on campus or off campus .
Do you have any advice ?
I think first of all for first-time students , coming and living on campus in dormitories can provide a certain level of security .
Anything else ?
Uh , when you live off campus , there might be a certain amount of flexibility in choosing roommates that you might not have when living on campus .
I will think over your advice .
Well , of course , the choice is up to you . Good luck !
I'll always remember my college days .
oh yeah ?
It was one of the best times in my life . It was tough , but I made it . I became a college graduate .
how did you feel when you graduated ?
it was a round day for me . My family attend the graduation ceremony . I was so nervous . I couldn't find my cap and gown , but all worked out in the end .
what did you do after graduation ?
I was planning to attend gradate school , but then I was offered a good job doing marketing , so I changed my mind .
sounds like you're happy with your decision .
I sure am . So what about you ? How did you feel when you graduated ?
it was also a proud day for me , but I also felt like a kind of loss that day .
how could it be ?
while seeing others going to work or continue their study , I didn't know what I would do .
you didn't have an offer ?
I had one , but I didn't like the job very much . I wanted to attend graduate school , but I was afraid it would be too tough .
Did you make it to school today ?
I always do . Did you go to school today ?
No , I didn't .
You should have , but have you seen any movies lately ?
That was an odd change of subject .
Maybe it was , but answer the question .
No , not recently .
I want to go to see a movie this weekend .
What's stopping you then ?
I don't want to go alone .
So , will you be at school tomorrow ?
are you ready to go the concert ?
yes . Should we go there by bus so we aren't late ?
actually , why don't we go there by bike ? We could get stuck in traffic if we travel by bus in such hour .
that's true . Cycling is good for our environment , too . Let me just get my helmet then .
is your helmet comfortable ?
not really , but I liked the design , so I got it .
maybe you should think about getting a round helmet ; they're better .
I'll think about it .
is that your new bicycle ?
yes , my father gave it to me for my birthday . Do you like it ?
it's the newest 10 speed cycling mountain bike . These are really expensive !
nothing but the best from my dad . I like everything about it except for the brakes . They are a bit sticky .
I can fix those for you . Is there anything else wrong with it ?
well , my saddle is too low for me . Do you know how to change the height ?
that's easy . It's important to have the saddle high enough so that your legs can extend fully when you are on your bicycle .
is that why my knees have felt sore after every time I've ridden my bike ?
Have you ever been to Japan ? I'm going in the fall .
Yeah , I've been there twice .
Really ? Tell me about it . What's it like ?
Oh , it's fantastic .
Where did you go ?
On my first trip I went to Tokyo , and on my second trip I visited Kyoto .
What did you think of Tokyo ?
Very big and exciting , but very crowded , too .
Yeah . I've seen pictures of the crowds !
And the restaurant are excellent ... but they're kind of expensive .
And how about Kyoto ?
Kyoto is lovely . It's full of beautiful old temples and gardens . It ' s a very historic city .
How was the weather ?
I was in Tokyo in August , and it was really hot and humid . I went to Kyoto in October . It was hot and sunny , but there was no humidity .
Excuse me , but is this dress on sale ?
The dress was on sale yesterday .
Are you sure ? I'd be happy to pay the sale price today .
I'm so sorry , but rules are rules .
OK , I'll just check out a few other stores .
Good morning , Miss Wang . How beautiful you look today !
Thank you . I'm wearing make-up .
Who taught you to put on make-up ?
It's me . I have studied make-up at a beauty shop .
Can you teach me how to do make-up ?
Of course . First , use eye shadow to heighten your eyes .
What eye shadow do you think is the most fit for me ?
I think pink eye shadow is popular among Chinese girls .
How do you protect yourself from chapped lips ?
I suggest you use lipstick , which also accentuates your lips .
How did you grow such long nails ?
Diana , do you like the perfume I gave you ?
It ' s good . But to tell you the truth , I don ' t wear perfume .
I ' m sorry . I didn ' t know that .
Mike promised to help us .
Mike ? How can you trust him to help us ?
Why not ?
Let's eat out .
Hey John . I have some great news .
What happened ?
I got a job offer from Dell .
That's great . I thought you said you didn't get the job .
I thought I did bad on the interview , but I guess I was wrong . I'm so happy right now .
I bet . That's great news . I'm very happy for you .
Thanks . I feel like celebrating . Let's go have a beer . It's on me .
It's nice of you to see me off .
It's my pleasure . Hope you ' ll visit Beijing more often .
Thanks . Stop here now .
OK . I hope you have a good trip . Thanks ever so much for your cooperation , Mr . Simpson . Give my best wishes to Mr . Green .
OK , I will . Goodbye and remember to look me up if ever you're in Paris .
Goodbye and all the best .
OK , bye for now !
Hi , Jane . How are you doing this morning ?
I'm all right , thanks . Just a little tired .
Late night ?
Have you had a chance to look over the contract ?
Yes . I've read it carefully .
And do you have any questions ?
No . But the contract stipulates that I will teach 22 hours a week . Will you have thatmany classes for me right away ?
No , probably not . For the first two weeks you may teach 10 or 15 hours .
But my salary will be 1100 dollars a month . Will you pay me that much for the first month ? Because , I mean , I won't be working so many hours .
I understand . That's why I didn't write the date on the contract . For the first two weeks , we will pay you according to the hours you teach . When you have 22 hours of classes , then the contract will take effect . Is that alright with you ?
Oh , so I don't sign the contract today . Is that right ?
I don't want you to misunderstand , Miss Briggs . We are very serious about hiring you . We want you to teach for us . We usually do contracts this way because it is more convenient .
I can accept that .
Good . And your benefits will begin immediately .
Even my health insurance ?
Yes . We will apply for your health insurance tomorrow . And your free membership in the club starts today if you like .
I have a few questions about the free membership .
What would you like to know ?
Is my membership the same as paying club members ? I mean , can I get discounts at club hotels ?
Absolutely . The only difference is in the restaurant and bar vouchers .
What are bar vouchers ?
Paying club members get around 300 dollars a year in restaurant vouchers . The vouchers can be used in the restaurant or the lounge . But we don't offer vouchers to employees .
But according to the contract , employees get a discount in the restaurant .
That's right . So in a way , it is cheaper for you than for the members . You get more benefits than they do .
So , for now , you want me to keep a copy of the contract . But we won't sign it yet . That right ?
Yes . I've prepared the contract just so that you understand everything . So that you understand the terms .
I understand . And according to the terms on the contract , I am happy to accept this job . I look forward to it .
Excuse me , are you Sara Wilson ?
Yes , I am . You must be Tom . Nice to meet you .
Nice to meet you too . Let me help you with your bags .
Be careful , Tom . Those are pretty heavy .
He's honest , hardworking and responsible . I simply can't find any shortcoming of his as an employee .
I rather doubt it . You ' re cheated by his appearance , I think .
We'll miss you while you're studying in the United States .
I need to make a copy of a document as soon as possible .
No problem , sir . There's a copy machine in our computer lab .
Very good . How much does each copy cost ?
Each copy will cost you a dime , sir .
A dime ? I remember when copies used to cost a nickel .
Dad , I ' d like to borrow some money .
Sure , Johnny , how much do you need ? five bucks ?
Come on , Dad , I need thirty thousand . I wanna get into the market . You know , I ' m tired of hearing all this news about the economic downturn , the inevitable recession , people stuffing their money in their mattresses . I look at this as an opportunity . This is a chance for me to get a jump start on building my nest egg .
I don ' t know about that ; with all the uncertainty in the markets right now , it would be a very unwise decision to invest . I don ' t know if you ' re aware son , but there has been a lot of turmoil in the markets recently . There have already been half a million layoffs in the last few months , and we have no idea how the proposed stimulus package will impact the economy . There ' s just too much instability . I wouldn ' t feel comfortable investing in this climate .
But look at it this way , every challenge is an opportunity . And anyway , I ' m not talking about investing in the domestic market . There are emerging markets that promise great returns . Look at China , for example , they have 1 . 4 billion people , half a billion of whom have recently entered the middle class . Here alone the aggregate demand for consumer goods represents an amazing wealth generating opportunity .
Come on , son , you ' re looking at this too naively , the Chinese market has exhibited a great deal of instability , and their currency has been devalued by almost a whole percentage point .
Hi ! Tom . Want to go to play bowling tonight ?
Sounds good . When and where shall we meet ?
Let me see . How about 6:30 at the gate of the club ?
Are you feeling better today , Bill ?
Well , it's hard to say . I cough a lot in the evening .
You'd better give up smoking . It's bad for your health .
You're right , but you know , it's hard to give up an old habit .
But you should make up your mind first .
You know , I often have to work till late at night . I need something to keep me awake .
Why don't you go to bed and get up early ? You'll have the same time for work .
Why , Tom ? It's five to six already and you are still writing here .
So what ? Are we going anywhere ?
Yes , have you forgotten ? We have arranged to go to Mary's to watch some videos tonight .
Oh , I'm sorry I forgot all about it . Well , can I take a rain check ?
What's the matter with you ? You are the one that persuaded all of us to go there .
Thanks a million .
Can I take your order , sir ?
I ' ll have the kung PAO chicken , please .
Certainly sir , would you like some rice or noodles with that ?
Just some fried rice please .
Ok , would you like some soup as well ?
No , thanks .
Hey ! That food was terrific . I can't eat another bite . Are you sure you don't want another dish ?
No , I'm full . My stomach isn't growling at me any more .
I know what you mean . I'm so full that I can burst . Shall we go then ?
I'm all set . Thank you for the dinner , Jack .
Have you been taken care of ?
Not yet . I am looking for a black suitcase .
Is there any special brand you'd like ?
Yes . I would prefer Nike .
The franchised store is on the second floor .
Please send this memo out to all the managerial staff ... there will be training for all the department heads next week . Attendance for managerial staff is mandatory , except for the financial department . Financial officers may participate if their schedules allow .
You would like me to send this to all managerial staff ? I'm sorry , sir , could you please clarify ? Who all is included in managerial staff ?
Managerial staff is anyone who is in a position of authority or responsibility , or who has anyone working under them . It includes all supervisors and department heads .
What about the senior account managers ? Do they count ?
I don't know how to adjust my life . Would you give me a piece of advice ?
You look a bit pale , don't you ?
Yes , I can't sleep well every night .
You should get plenty of sleep .
I drink a lot of wine .
If I were you , I wouldn't drink too much .
I often feel so tired .
You better do some exercise every morning .
I sometimes find the shadow of death in front of me .
How do you feel about the TV series ?
Oh , to be frank , I think it's sheer waste of time to watch it .
Yes , I agree , but still a lot of people watch it .
Mr . Ben , What do you think of the book ?
It's an excellent one . I like it very much .
Why ?
It includes a lot of useful words and phrases .
Thank god you showed up when you did ! He ' s insane ! Do you think we should call the police ?
Don ' t worry about it , I ' ll call my friend and have him take care of it . I can ' t believe he was stalking you all these years . What a nut job !
I know ! Well ... he said I ' m not pregnant . I ' m sorry if I got you all worked up over nothing . I want you to know that I didn ' t do it on purpose ...
Don ' t apologize ! From the moment I met you , not a day has gone by when I haven ' t thought of you . And now that I ' m with you again , I ' m ... I ' m just scared , Veronica . The closer I get to you , the worse it gets . The thought of not being with you , I mean , I just can ' t handle it ! We were made for each other , Veronica . You are my everything , my soul mate . What can I do ?
Just hold me ... I ' ll always be here for you , no matter what . And together , we can tackle whatever life throws at us . I believe in us , steven .
Mom , can you talk about the philosophy of life with me ?
I'm frustrated .
What's the problem ?
I can't work out this problem .
Let me take a look . Maybe I can figure it out .
Can I help you ?
Yes , I need to buy a computer for this semester . I was told it is cheaper to buy computers here .
Well , you heard right . You can get an excellent deal on a new computer here . We have great discounts for students .
I don't know much about computers . But I know I want a desktop computer with a lot of memory . And I need a printer .
Well , first let's consider your computer . Here , for example , is a system I highly recommend--the Power Macintosh G3 . It comes with 64 megabytes of total memory .
Is that a lot ? Sixty-four ?
Yes , it is . It should be enough for any student needs you might have . What department are you in ?
History .
Well , so you will mostly be using word processing , for writing papers . I recommend the Corel Word Perfect program for word processing . We can talk about software later . Let's talk about your
Thirty percent ?
Yes .
Wow . That's really good . And you think this is really a good system for a graduate student ?
Yes . It's an excellent system .
Hmm . Hey , wait . This has an Apple on it . Is this an Apple computer ?
Yes , it's a Macintosh . It's Apple . Macintosh and Apple are the same thing .
I don't want Macintosh . I want PC .
I'm sorry , but our university computer center only sells Macintosh equipment .
What ? Are you serious ?
Yes .
But nobody uses Macintosh !
That's not true . Most of the students and professors in the university here use Macintosh . They find it is better for writing and word-processing , and that is what students mostly do . Ma
Yes , I'm from Taiwan .
Well , I know that in most Asian countries Apple is not very popular . But here in America , especially in universities and publishing companies , Apple is very commonly used .
But I need a computer that can handle writing in Chinese .
There are several Chinese writing programs you can use with Macintosh . Chinese is no problem for Apple .
Hmm . I think I should ask some of my friends for advice before I make a decision . I'm sorry .
No , don't be sorry . It's reasonable to ask your friends . But believe me , most of the students here in the university--Asian students included--most of them use Apple .
Well , thanks for your advice . I will probably come back later .
I'm going to have to do some shopping today .
Oh yeah ? What do you need to go shopping for ?
I want to find a new bedroom set .
Do you know where you're going to find your bedroom set ?
I have no clue .
There's no particular place that you want to look at ?
I don't know where to go to find a nice bedroom set .
I can tell you where I got mine , if you'd like .
Please do .
I bought mine from IKEA .
Are the bedroom sets at IKEA affordable ?
Your silk garments have aroused much interest in our country ever since our first order was put on the market . We have no doubt we can do better this year if you appoint us your sales agent .
We appreciate your intention , but the amount of your orders last year was moderate .
That's true . However at the Fair last March , people were so interested in Chinese garments that the demand this year will surely increase .
Do you think it will help if we appoint a local agent ?
I'm sure it will , if we are appointed your agent . Your garments are attractive , and we , a well-established importer with multiple sales channels , can boost the sales .
Please help yourself to whatever you like , don't be shy .
Yes , thank you . I ' Ve already been helping myself .
This dish tastes terrific . Would you like to try a little ? It is a little hot , but very good .
I like hot food , especially Sichuan cuisine .
Would you like another beer ?
I'II have another cup of beer insist . I know I don't like to drink alone , especially there are someone sitting there next to me .
Come on , it's the weekend . Let's taste and enjoy this meal . Cheers !
I need to order new business cards .
Do you have any idea how many you'd like ?
I think 2,000 would be enough .
Would you fill out this form , please ?
I don't want to make any changes to my old card .
If you detect any difference , I'll take you out to dinner .
... Okay , that's it . Here's the form , and here's my old card to use as a model .
Thank you . Your order will be ready seven days from now .
I need it sooner . Let me have it in three days , okay ?
What are your hobbies ?
Sports .
Like what ?
Hello , Friendship Restaurant . May I help you ?
I'd like to book a table tonight .
Yes , Sir . For how many people , please ?
Eight .
What time ?
Eight o'clock tonight , would you please set us in a private room ?
So sorry , we're fully booked in that room . Would you like to make reservation some other time ?
Good afternoon . Which service do you require .
I need to increase the amount of my L / C . It's quite a new one ; I opened it 12 days ago .
What you need to do is apply for an amendment on your existing L / C .
How do I go about that ?
You'll need to fill in this application form and there is a charge of 30 US dollars for this .
OK , you can take that from my account . I'll fill in the form now .
Lisa , I need some help here .
What is it , dear ?
Well , I need to get some female stuff .
You mean stuff like tampons and sanitary napkins ?
Yeah . I didn't know what they're called in English .
Follow me . All the things you need as a woman are in aisles 10 and 11 . This section is usually near the medicine section in any supermarket .
Good morning , Mr . Black . I am the new secretary .
Good morning , Miss White . You are half an hour early .
I don't want to make a bad impression .
Come on over . This is your desk , and this is your time card . Be sure to clock in and out before and after you work .
I will .
One more thing , keep your desk neat . It's the rule . There is no exception , even the art designers have to keep their desks neat .
I'll keep that in mind . Does everything on the desk belong to me ?
Not belong . You can use them as long as you work here . When you quit , you ' ll have to return them to the company .
What's the extension number for my phone ?
The operator will put all your calls through . You don't have to worry about that .
Can I make personal phone calls during my office hours ?
Of course you can . Every one has his personal matters to deal with more or less , but don't chat over the phone . What's more , don't let it hinder your work and the company's business .
I understand .
I'm afraid I've had a terrible row with my boss . What shall I do ?
I think you'd better apologize .
Oh , but I can't . It wasn't my fault .
Well , that was an interesting documentary !
For sure ! I didn ' t really understand some of the technical jargon they used in the film when they talked about social security in the US .
Like what ?
Well , they mentioned how people put away money in something called a 401K ?
Yeah , I know it sounds weird , but a 401k is a type of retirement plan that allows employees to save and invest for their own retirement . Through a you can authorize your employer to deduct a certain amount of money from your paycheck and invest it in the plan . Everyone tries to contribute as much as possible so that when you retire , you can rest peacefully on your nest egg .
That ' s interesting and logical I guess . In my country , we also have to contribute to a government-run retirement fund , but most people don ' t really trust it so they just invest in properties or things like that .
That seems a bit unstable don ' t you think ?
Yeah , but corrupt governments in the past have created distrust among banks and financial institutions , so now people prefer to have money hidden in a jar or a piggy bank .
Don't tell me that's your lunch ?
No , this is just my appetizer ... this is my lunch !
A candy bar for an appetizer and a piece of pie for lunch ! That's all junk !
This is good food , it has milk , fruit , grains , nuts ...
Sugar , sugar , preservatives , fats , more sugar , more fat , more preservatives !
At least I enjoy my lunch ! What's in your bag ?
My wife sent me with rice , vegetables , and some curry chicken .
Remittance Advice , how can I help you ?
I want to send some money to Hangzhou . Today , if possible .
That's no problem . There are 3 ways you can do this , firstly you can send the money account to account , or you can choose to send cash to account or you can send cash to individual . Which service would you like ?
I think account to individual would be best . But which is the quickest way ?
If you choose our Urgent Remittance Service the money can be there within 2 hours . There will be a 1 % handling fee and then you need to pay 12 RIB for the Express Delivery Service .
I have a real problem when I meet people .
What is it ? Maybe I can help .
I never know when to shake hands and when not to . Can you tell me something about it ?
Do you come from a country where they shake hands ?
Oh yes . Men , women , and children shake hands all the time .
It ' s very simple . Men shake hands , women and children don ' t .
But some women do shake hands . And now a lot of children have such good manners , they shake hands too .
Well , a good rule to follow is , for men you hold out your hand , for women and children , you wait and see what they do .
That sounds easy enough .
Here is my boarding pass . Can you tell me where my seat is ?
Follow me and I will lead you to your seat .
Thank you . Can you please put my luggage in the overhead bin for me ?
Of course .
Help me sort out my problem , will you ?
OK , but I think you should keep an eye on your plan if you see what I mean .
I know it ' s so costly , but ...
Mr . Chen , I have a Marry from realty world on line one .
I don't have time to talk to her now .
OK , I'll take a message .
I really should be on my way .
Oh , don ' t go yet . Let ' s at least have one more .
No , thank you . I can ' t .
It ' s too bad that you have to leave so early .
Thank you very much . I had a really good time .
Thanks for coming ! We should meet again sometime soon .
That would be great ! Actually , can I get your phone number , Ella ? That ' s assuming you don ' t mind if I call you sometime .
Anytime . You can reach me 5558929 .
ok , got it . I ' ll call you sometime next week .
Fine .
It ' s time to go and I hope we can get together again soon .
Hello , this is the admissions office . Can I help you ?
Hi . I ' m calling about your continuing education program .
What would you like to know ?
I want to become certified in computer programming . Do you offer any part-time courses for adult further education ?
Yes , we offer both night and weekend courses in a number of different subjects .
How do I sign up ?
If you give me your address , I can mail you an information packet and the application forms .
There's been a dramatic change in the weather pattern .
Don't tell me it affects our flight .
It has been delayed .
Did they say for how long ?
No , but probably until there is a break in the storm .
So we can't really go anywhere , can we ?
I think it's smart to stay close to the gate so we can hear the updates .
What happened to Nancy ? She is all sweetness and light today .
She is going to get married .
No wonder ! Who is the bridegroom ?
Good Lord ! Look at that man .
Yes ?
He's swimming in the cold sea . He must be very strong .
Have you gone to school today ?
I went to school today . Did you go to school ?
I couldn't go to school today , I was sick .
That's horrible . I'd be happy to give you the assignments from English class .
Thank you very much , that's kind of you .
Don't mention it .
When you miss a day of school , I'll be happy to give you the English assignments .
Hey , Tom , I want to learn how to play golf .
You're really sporty !
I want to do everything I can .
Do you have clubs ?
No . Can I rent clubs ?
There are clubs for beginners . It's cheaper to buy those rather than rent them a few times .
What kinds of clubs ?
Like the seven-piece set . It's only $ 120 .
I'll buy a set . But you have to teach me .
The Mountains would be a great place for the company retreat .
That's a wonderful choice .
I have chosen January as the month for this retreat .
January is a little too close to the Christmas holidays .
Yes , maybe another choice might be better .
I think that April would work . Spring is a lovely time to be in the mountains .
Thank you for thinking of that .
Maybe if we asked around we could see what people would prefer .
That is a good idea .
We look forward to your early reply and trust that through our mutual cooperation we shall be able to conclude this transaction with you in the near future .
Thank you for your consideration . We will inform you of our intention as soon as possible .
: How are you , Mr . Ding ? I ' m John Brown .
Pleased to meet you , Mr . Brown .
Please have a seat . I know our employment officer has already given you the information about your employee contract , but I ' d like to go over the main details again before signing the contract . First , you ' ll be getting a monthly salary , with one month paid vacation after one year of service . No probation is involved .
That ' s what I understand .
You ' ll be covered by our medical plan while on duty . Since you ' ll be middle-anagement , you , re expected to be available up to one hour past normal working hours . Any approved overtime that will be paid at time , which you can take as salary or time off .
Exactly my understanding .
A reasonable number of sick days will be covered by the company . Any extended illness will be covered by insurance . Have you read the other terms of the contract ?
Yes , I have .
Do you have any questions ?
Just one . I noticed an item about flextime . Is that a possibility for me ?
Yes it is , but you ' ll have to discuss the details with your manager .
Good afternoon . Welcome to Lincoln Bank , how can we be of service ?
Hi . You called and said I should come in . It's about some documents that have arrived for Nobut Foods .
Just pulling up your information now . Yes , some documents arrived for you from Sapporo .
Oh great ! We've been waiting for those . Is everything alright with them ?
Actually , there is a problem . It's the goods description , it's a little different on the invoice , but this does happen sometimes .
No , everything has to be perfect .
What may I do for you ?
I need to get a passport .
You will need to apply for one .
When will I be able to do that ?
You can do it right now , if you ' d like .
That ' s fine .
Please fill out this application .
Then what do I do ?
I just need to take your picture .
How long will it take for my passport to be ready ?
You will get it in a few weeks .
I'm hungry . Do we have anything to eat ?
Just a few cookies .
What kind of promotional events are scheduled for the new product line ?
Marketing has us set up with product launches in five major cities , as well as some sponsoring events throughout the year . All together , there will be 15 events .
What kind of sponsoring are we talking about ? I don't know how effective sponsorship really is ...
It's not what you're thinking . These events will give us a wider exposure than most . Take the tri-city marathon for starters . This is a highly publicized event . The television exposure alone will nearly double our customer awareness .
Other than the marathon , what else is on the list ?
We've got a spot in Olympic Stadium sponsoring one of a team's equipment , then a rally for cancer research , and a connection to the inner-city education program .
Sports , medicine , education ... seems kind of random , don't you think ?
What should I prepare for the recruitment fair ?
You should wear a formal dress and be confident .
What application materials should I take ?
Hello , it's my first time in Egypt . What would you advise me to see here ?
There are many famous resorts in Egypt . You can have a good time here .
But I'm going to stay here only for two days .
I'm afraid two days isn't enough for you to see all the places of interest .
What shall I do then ?
If I were you , the pyramid would be my first choice . It's so magnificent .
It's really worth seeing . By the way , I'd like to buy some souvenirs .
You needn't worry about it . There are many stores at the scenic spots . I'm sure you can get what you want .
Excuse me , I'm looking for a good novel . Can you recommend anything ?
Certainly . What kind of novel did you have in mind ?
I'm not really sure . I don't like romance novels , but any other genre is okay , as long as the book's good .
Well , let me see ... This Stephen King novel is a real thriller .
Sorry , I forgot to mention that I don't like horror much , either .
That's okay . Well , let me think . How about a mystery novel ?
Hmm ... I sometimes like mysteries , but I don't think I'm in the mood for one right now .
There are a number of science fiction and fantasy novels I can recommend .
I love science fiction and fantasy , but I've been reading a lot of both lately , so I'd prefer to get something else .
How about a good historical novel ? This one set in medieval France is excellent . The story is exciting and the characterization is very well done .
That sounds interesting . Okay , I'll get this one . Thanks for all your help .
Do you have any questions before you commit yourself to this ?
Actually , yes I do . I was wondering about the subscription fee . And how much will you charge me during the time of redeeming this new fund ?
The subscription fee is charged at a rate of 1 . 2 % . But for redeeming , a rate of a usual 0 . 5 % , we shall charge you 1 . 6 % if you apply to buy it after the fund-raising period .
So , it's going to cost me then ?
Flight BE - 407 to Paris is delayed . Will passengers please wait in the lounge ?
Oh , how annoying !
The time of departure will be announced as soon as possible .
Is that the Japanese Restaurant ?
Speaking . May I help you ?
What kind of food do you serve ?
We serve a great variety of popular Japanese dishes in set courses , and also many meat dishes .
I see . That sounds fine . Until what time are you open ?
We are open until 10 but our last order for dinner is at 9:30 pm .
Fine . Well be there before then .
I would like to order some internet today .
What kind would you like ?
What kind of internet is there ?
You can get DEL or dial-up .
Which of those two is best ?
I would recommend DEL .
So that one better ?
It's better because it doesn't tie up the phone .
What do you mean by that ?
DEL isn't connected through your phone line , but dial-up is .
So then I can't use my phone if I'm on the internet ?
I am currently the highest bidder for your shirt . I was wondering about the size .
It's a small .
How is the condition ? How old is it ?
It has never been worn . It was too small for me so I'm selling it .
Why didn't you return the shirt or exchange it ?
Would you mind answering a few personal questions ?
Of course not .
OK . Does your present employer know that you are going to leave ?
Yes . I gave her my resignation a few days ago .
Will she let you leave your present job ?
Yes , I think she will .
Why do you want to leave your present job ?
Well , there are several reasons . I don't think my present job is suitable for me . That's the first reason . Secondly , your company has a good reputation . I think it can offer me more challenging opportunities . Last , frankly speaking , I wish to get higher pay .
I appreciate you frankness . Do you know anything about our company ?
Is there something I can help you with ?
No , I'm just browsing . Thanks anyway .
I wish I knew who had moved our flower pots .
It was me . I am so sorry .
What did you think you were doing ?
I had to move it , so that I can get my bike through .
How dare you be so inconsiderate ? That's wrong .
I am awfully sorry . I didn't think you would mind so much .
Never do that again .
OK ! Let's get down to business now .
Say it .
As you know , we should work out cautious and detailed plan for our promotion , so as to guide our company to be successful in the new product , L-series .
That's right . And in my opinion , to push the sale of the new products is not an easy task .
I know that . I need to discuss this with Arden . And in his opinion , we should widen the scope of our ads , so newspaper and Internet should be adopted in this campaign .
Could you put it in detail ?
Well . We plan to contact www . on-line advertising . com . cn and Shanghai Morning Newspaper to discuss the advertisement schedule .
I think the idea is very good . In the promotion campaign , two or more media are used together , so as to draw customers ' attention and keep hold their attention to larger extent .
What kind of media do you recommend ?
I think TV is also an effective media , as long as our company is willing to spend more money on it .
Well . Arden just mentioned the paper and the on-sales . And I can talk about TV with him later , because TV promotion gets more and more popular among consumers .
Do you eat a lot of fruit and vegetables in you country ?
Yes , we do . The most popular vegetables are potatoes , carrots , peas , and cauliflower . The most popular fruit are apples , bananas , pears , peaches , grapes , and oranges . Do you like vegetables ?
I like them very much . We also eat a lot of vegetables in my country , buy we eat different kinds .
Which kinds of vegetables do people in your country usually eat ?
We eat a lot of sweet corn , broccoli and eggplant .
I love eggplant ! Unfortunately , it ' s quite expensive in my country , so I don ' t eat it often .
Why is it relatively expensive ?
Because we don ' t grow it much in my country . We import a lot from other countries .
I see . We grow a lot of fruit and vegetables in my country . We export a lot of melons , grapes , oranges and lemons . In your country , do you eat corn on the cob ? It's very popular in my country .
We eat it in my country too , but I wouldn't say it ' s very popular . Most people buy frozen sweet corn from their local supermarket .
Do people usually buy frozen vegetables in your country , it ' s very rare in mine .
Look ! The girl is so beautiful and she is smiling at me . She is lovely .
I can't agree with you . She's pretty , but she always blows hot and cold .
What makes you think so ?
See you later , alligator .
What are your plans for this weekend ?
I'd like to hire a bike . I think it would be a good idea to do some cycling on Sunday .
If the weather's fine .
I am sure it will be . It's been good so far this weekend .
I know a good place to hire bikes if you want .
Thanks . That would be really helpful .
Lucy , you ' re back . How was your first day of school ?
It was great . I had a really good time .
What classes did you have ?
Well , I had English from 9 o'clock to 11 o'clock , art from 12 o'clock to 2 o'clock , and math from 2 o'clock to 4 o'clock .
What do you think about the teachers ?
To be honest , I liked all of them , except for the math teacher . Though he must be quite young , he seem like an old person . He ' s so boring !
That ' s too bad . How was your English teacher ?
She was great . In today ' s class , she gave us a lecture on how to be a good student . She told us not to arm for exams , and to pay more attention on communicating than memorizing .
Where is she from ?
She said that she ' s from a small town in the middle of America .
Were you able to understand everything that she said ?
Not everything , but nearly . She speaks very clearly and doesn ' t use very complex words so that it is easy for us to understand her .
She sounds like a good teacher . Do you think you ' ll pass her class ?
Yes ... with flying colors !
What does that mean ?
It ' s a new phrase that she taught us today . It means that I will not only pass the class , but I will do extremely well !
If you like the class this much already , I ' m sure you will .
I hope so .
did she give you any homework ?
not today . She said she wanted us to relax tonight instead of doing homework ,
Would you be willing to accompany me to the party tonight ?
How do you usually sell your products now ?
I'm doing business through Internet now .
Oh , really ? Is it a good way ?
Yes , very good .
What advantages does it have ?
It is very convenient . You know you can browse the website and send e-mails to your customers at any time .
Yes , if we do business through other ways , it will cost a lot of time .
Also it has low cost , and you know you only need to pay the fee of Internet , which is very cheap .
Yes , going abroad to join the exhibition will cost much . But does it have any disadvantages ?
To be frank , sometimes it is not so safe as doing business through traditional ways .
You mean there may be credit problems ?
Yes , but if you choose some good B2B websites , such problems can be avoided .
Will you give some suggestion ?
Of course , such as the Alabama , which is a famous website .
You must be Mr White from Britain .
Yes , may I know your name ?
You really look familiar .
Really ? My name is Gretchen Hammer . What is your name ?
My name is Phillip Hammer . I think we are related . Who is your dad ?
Jacob Hammer . He is originally from Holland .
That's my uncle . You're my cousin ! Hi cousin !
It's really a small world , isn't it ! The Hammer family isn't very big .
It really is . Do you have time to eat dinner and catch up ?
The academy is an important part of the education system .
Could you explain the paper-making process to us - in very simple terms - please ?
Well , the pulp falls from a box onto the first part of the paper machine , which is basically a wire bed with large holes in it , where most of the water is extracted .
So , is it actually paper at this stage ?
Oh , honey . You came . I'm so glad ! Why are you wearing a bonnet ?
Uh , just for fun . Happy Easter , Mom . We got you these Easter lilies .
They're beautiful . Taylor , you're so pale and skinny !
Of course I'm pale . It's just now the beginning of spring . I don't have my summer tan yet .
I guess . Are you sure you're taking care of yourself ?
the dinner was really good . It knocked my socks off .
that's very kind of you to say so . Let's try some after-dinner wines .
great . Sweet wines are my favorite . They always make a great finish to a decisions meal .
do you prefer brandy or ports .
port , please .
excellent choice . I love its smooth flavor .
the port is exquisite . It must have spent years aging in barrels . Am I right ?
yes . You always have a good nose for wines .
next time we are about to dinner we should try some Canadian ice wine .
oh , what's that ?
it's made from naturally frozen grapes .
why not ? It sounds great .
oh , here's to your health .
thanks . Cheers .
What's up ? You look depressed .
I just had a quarrel with him .
Would you rather I taught him a lesson for you ?
How is the project going ?
Well , frankly speaking , I am running a little behind . It's 40 % done .
Do you have any problem during the process ? You should speed things up .
I have little chance to communicate with colleagues when I have problems . They are always too busy to help a green hand like me .
Have you ever helped others when they are in trouble ? Most will give a hand to someone who has helped him .
I did . But I am so depressed because there is nobody that will help me .
And you should have good co-operation with other colleagues , you know a scientific schedule brings efficiency to the work .
I see your point , but I seem to be on bad terms with them .
Cheer up and pay more attention to your colleagues and the things will be much better . I am speaking from my experience .
Thank you so much .
And you should read as much as possible to enrich the knowledge .
That's a good idea . I can learn many useful things from books .
We're approaching the critical point for success or failure of this project . you'd better speed up and catch up with books .
Well , I will do it better .
If you have any problem in your work , let me know .
I can't finish this steak .
What do you want to do tonight ?
I don't know . What do you want to do ?
I have no idea . Do you think we're in a rut ?
What do you mean ?
Well , we do the same things every weekend . We go to the same restaurants . We see the same friends . You know what I mean ?
Yeah , I guess you're right . It's easy to get bogged down in the day to day , and forget to change things up once in a while . Let's break out and do something completely different tonight .
Okay , I'll look in the events section of the paper to see what's going on tonight . Hmm , we could go to a concert . There is a good one tonight . I bet it's not sold out . But , we'll have to drive an hour to the venue .
An hour ? That's a bit of a bummer . Let me take a peek and see what else there is . How about going dancing ? We haven't done that in a while . There's a club in Silver Lake that's supposed to be hopping on Friday nights . Eddie from work told me that they have a really good DJ and a big dance floor , and the cover charge isn't bad .
I'm not really in the mood for dancing , actually . You know what ? I just feel like staying home tonight and vegging , after all . How about you ?
Yeah , I was hoping you'd say that . It's nice to have the option to go out but I'd rather stay in . Maybe we can go out tomorrow night .
Hi , John , how was your vacation ?
Awesome , we went to Australia and New Zealand .
That must have been wonderful . Do anything interesting ?
Well , we went bungee jumping when we were in Australia .
Wow ! Isn ' t that dangerous ?
A little , but the rush was worth it .
Tell me about it .
We jumped off a bridge and fell 500 feet before the bungee cord caught us .
500 feet ! I would never be able to do that .
You know , you really ought to get a new pair of jeans . Those are falling to pieces .
But this is how I like them , Mum . They ' re just beginning to look right .
I want to have Mexican food for dinner .
I'm tired of Mexican food . Besides , you picked the restaurant last week .
Good morning , Miss Li .
Morning , Mike .
I ' m sorry that I was absent yesterday .
I ' Ve already got your certificate for sick-leave . How do you feel today ?
I feel much better now .
Have you received the reading material handed out yesterday ?
I ' Ve already got it . Thanks .
I will explain it in detail in the next class . Could you preview it ?
Mom , I didn ' t have breast . I could eat a horse .
You look like a basket case .
I'm not surprised .
What's the problem ?
My brother in-law just dropped in from the states .
Yeah , and ?
I decided to put him up while he's here , big mistake !
Why ?
He's lazy . I tried being a good host , but if you give him an inch , he'll take a mile .
I guess you think twice next time he comes .
You can say that again .
So how long has he here for ?
Two weeks . If he thinks I'll put up with his attitude that long he's got another thing coming .
Hello , Fairbrook Consulting , how may I help you ?
Yes , this is Julianne Horton , and I ' m calling to arrange an appointment with Ms . McNeal .
Certainly , what day were you thinking of ?
How ' s Thursday ? Does she have any time available then ?
Um . . . let me double check . . . unfortunately , she ' s booked solid on Thursday , how does next Monday work for you ?
Actually , I ' Ve got something scheduled on Monday . Can she do Tuesday ?
Sure , Tuesday ' s perfect . May I ask where you ' re calling from ?
Sure , Merton Financial Advisors .
Would you like to come out with me tonight ?
Sorry , I can ' t .
Tomorrow night , then ?
I ' d like to . But I ' m afraid I can ' t .
I ' m wondering if you like to go to the theatre then .
That ' s sounds great .
Ok . How about give me a ring , then ?
No . I ' d better not .
Why not ?
Roger ? I need figures for accounting . Have finished the calculations ?
I ' m just finishing now , ma ' am . I ' ll have them ready within the hour .
All right , thanks .
What schools have you attended ?
I finished Young Primary School in 1998 , and entered Xi ' an Middle School that same September . I graduated from there in July of 2004 , and that September I entered Wuhan University , where I'm studying now .
How do you think the education you have received will contribute to your work in this company ?
I think I have a good understanding of fundamentals in the areas your company deals with , and I can go on from here to build up the specific skills and knowledge I need to do my job well .
Your graduation thesis was on Medical Application of Laser , right ? What were your conclusions ?
I need a pan .
Okay . Do you have a particular size in mind ?
Well , the bigger the better , I think .
Look at this one . It's our biggest pan .
Yes , that is big enough , but it's too heavy for me .
Okay , we have the same thing in aluminum .
Oh , this is nice and light . But it has an aluminum handle .
Try this one . Same aluminum pan , but with a heat-resistant bamboo handle .
Oh , yes . This is very nice . I'll take this one .
That's a good choice . How do you want to pay for it ?
Cash . Oh , I almost forgot . I need a lid , too .
Look at this headline - Elvis Baby Born on Spacecraft . Where do these tabloids get such crazy stories ?
I ' Ve often wondered the same thing . I also wonder who reads them . Then I realize that I ' m standing here reading them myself .
It looks as though everyone in line reads them , or at least looks at the headlines .
I think we picked the right line . This one seems to be moving more quickly than the others .
Maybe our checker is faster at scanning the food .
Henry , I want to ask you something .
Say what you want to say .
You see . The wage is not paid yet , I am wondering if you could possibly lend me some money .
Jane is going to quit her job in the bank .
You must be joking . The job is nice and she is well paid .
I think I should join a fitness centre . I am getting a little fat and I'm totally out of shape . Even a quick walk of a few hundred metres leaves me out of breath .
I'm afraid you are beginning to look a little overweight . You really need to stop smoking . That's the main reason you're unhealthy .
I guess you're right . I've tried stopping , but I just can't seem to quit .
Why don't you try smoking one cigarette less each day ? How many do you smoke each day now ?
I smoke around 30 each day .
Ok . So for one month , reduce the number you smoke by one a day . At the end of the month , you'll have quit . You should also buy a tracksuit and go jogging every morning . You don't need to jog far .
If I do a few exercises at home , like crunches , I'll soon deal with this waistline .
Be careful when you go jogging . Don't put yourself under too much stress . You're still a smoker shouldn't do too much exercises in your condition .
I'll join a fitness centre . I'm sure they'll be able to give me more advice . There's one near my office , so I can go before and after work . I don't want to go jogging in the street , so I'll use a treadmill .
Can I help you ?
Yes . I'd like to borrow these books .
Just a second . I'll see if I can find them for you .
Thanks .
Here you are . You must return them within a month .
What happens if I'm not finished with them in a month ?
You can come in and renew them unless someone else has reserved them .
OK . Thank you very much for your trouble .
Could you tell me what university you want to go to , John ?
Pardon ?
What university would you enter ?
University ? Why ? You asked me last year .
Oh , I forget . Sorry .
I went to Harvard University .
Did you ? And what course did you take there ?
God save me ! Is there anything wrong with you ? Didn't I tell you ?
I've not known . Perhaps , I've got a bad memory .
I did a B . A . in economics . Remember ?
Hey , Philip ! You won ' t believe this !
What ? What ' s the good news ?
My son , Harvey just got into Harvard ! He starts next September .
This'd better be good . I'm about to fire you all and find another company .
We've brought you a little something from the place down the street , Kitty Cafe-Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee beans !
Mmm , smells good . Sure better than my instant . But please don't tell me this is another coffee-themed pitch . I thought I told you ...
I'd like to have these shirts washed and ironed .
Ok , do you want us to use starch ?
Yes , heavy starch in the collar , please .
Yes , sir . Your shirts will be ready by Thursday morning . Anything else ?
I also have a suit to be dry-cleaned . Can I fetch it the day after tomorrow ? It's urgent .
No problem , sir .
Could you please tell me when your laundry opens and closes ?
We remain open from 9am till 8p m .
I see .
Here is your laundry ticket , sir .
Thank you . I'd like to get my laundry .
Yes , sir . May I have your laundry ticket , please ?
Here you are .
Yes , they are ready to go .
Can you sew on these buttons ?
No problem .
How much for the shirts ?
10 dollars .
Here is the money , keep the change .
Next please ! Hello sir , may I see your passport please ?
Yes , here you go .
Will you be checking any bags today .
Yes , I ' d like to check three pieces .
I ' m sorry , sir . Airline policy allows only two pieces of checked luggage , at twenty kilograms each , plus one piece of carry-on luggage . I will have to charge you extra for the additional suitcase .
What ? Why ! I am taking an intercontinental flight ! I ' m flying sixteen thousand CMS ! How am I supposed to only take two , twenty kilo bags ? That ' s absurd !
I am sorry , sir , there ' s nothing I can do . You cannot board the flight with that large bag either . Carry - on bags must fit in the over-head compartment or under your seat . That bag is clearly too big .
Now I see . You charge next to nothing for an international ticket , but when it comes to charging for any other small thing , you charge an arm and a leg ! So tell me , miss , how much will I have to pay for all of this .
Let ' s see ... six hundred and twenty-five US dollars .
Do you have any idea why I pulled you over today ?
I'm not sure .
One of your brake lights is out .
Really ? I'm sorry . I did not know that .
I'm going to give you a ticket .
Why can't you just let me off with a warning ?
It's just a ticket .
How much is the fine ?
The judge will let you know .
I have to be at court ?
Of course .
Hello , this is Dr Cook's clinic . May I speak to Mr . Smith ?
This is he .
Dr Cook won't be able to see you at the time suggested . Could you make it a quarter to two ?
Come on in . I am so glad you are here . We have been expecting you .
Am I late for the party ? Looks everyone is already here . Hope I didn ' t miss something interesting .
No , you are just on time . We haven ' t really started yet .
Great , here are some flowers for you . I hope you like them . I was not sure if the color will suit your new apartment .
Thank you , they ' re beautiful . You can hang your coat over there . Try this new couch , it is so comfortable . You will love it . Want something to drink , tea , coffee , juice or Cola ?
Don ' t bother . I will help myself .
Make yourself at home .
It is such a nice place .
Well , I ' m glad I had a chance to see these samples , but I ' m really not in a position to make a decision right now .
Would you like me to leave the samples with you ?
Yeah , why don ' t you do that , and then you can give me a call sometime next week .
What is the most unexpected thing you experienced in space ?
I wasn't quite prepared for the view of the Earth as we left . It was just awe-inspiring . It emerged from just a slightly curved horizon to a whole Earth , where you could look across oceans and continents in a single glance . I wasn't quite prepared for that . It's inevitably etched in my memory .
When viewing the Earth from space , do you feel detached from humanity or more a part of the totality of humankind ?
Detached . You're literally detached from one planet , captured by another . Your only link to reality is the Earth out there ; fortunate - 1y , it stays in view the whole time .
There're a lot of suspicions that the International Space Station is never going to become reality . Is it going to be some future project that never happens ?
I believe it's certainly for real . It without question has suffered a lot of delays . But there's hardware sitting on the pad right now and it's due to go off in December . It is a reality . It has just taken longer to get literally off the ground .
There were a lot of talks during the Bush administration about a not too distant future Mars mission . It seemed to fizzle out . Do you think that this Shuttle mission will reignite the public's passion for space and get us to Mars sooner ?
I hope this flight is not just a one-time affair , that it does re-ignite people's interest to push on . But only time will tell .
You had gone to the moon twice , orbited space around the Earth lots of times , and of course you have had the most amazing views that a human being can have . How long do we ordinary beings have to wait to feel the weightlessness ? I just can't wait .
Is that Mr . Green ?
This is him speaking .
I am calling to inform you that we're happy to have you with us . Welcome aboard , I'm sure your friend would have given you a lot of information of our school and its motto , ways of teaching , etc .
And so , that concludes my outline for our marketing strategy next year . Thank you very much for your time .
Hey , that was quite the presentation ! Honestly , I was completely blown away by your strategy outline . I've gotta say , Alex , you really wowed me today .
Aw , come on ; it was nothing . I'm just doing my job .
No , I think you deserve some recognition here ; I mean , if I look back on your previous presentations , this is a huge improvement .
Well , Kristin did give me a hand with the slides . She ' s a real wiz on PowerPoint .
And I saw that you took on board my feedback about pricing strategies . I really appreciate you taking the time to think though my suggestions .
Yeah , well , that was some good advice . You made some really good points .
Where to , sir .
To this place , please .
Star Hotel . OK .
How long does it take to get to the hotel ?
About 20 minutes .
Here's the hotel .
How much is the fare ?
Bad news , I'm afraid . Our supplier has gone bust . The parts you ordered have arrived at the docks but the handling agent won't release them until someone pays the invoice . We also need to arrange transport to the factory .
Are you tired ?
Excuse me , what's the checking time for flight FA1187 ?
Have you paid the airport fee ?
Yes , and I have already gone through the safety inspection .
In that case , please get your passport and boarding card ready . Just wait in the terminal for twenty more minutes . You will hear the announcement .
Have you finished your work ?
Not because I ' m keeping an eye on the baby .
Where is the baby ' s mother ?
Excuse me , Richard ? Are you busy at the moment ?
Not really , Betty . What do you need ?
My fax machine ' s on the blink . Would you take a look at it ?
I hate landing in the sand trap ! Now I'm probably going to waste strokes getting it out .
At least you haven't landed in the water yet . I've done that on the last two holes .
Could you hand me my wedge ? I'll try ...
Here you go . I'll wait for you to get on the green before I putt .
No . you go ahead and putt it out . Then I'Il go .
May I help you ?
Have you any package tour to Italy ?
Yes , of course . Here are all the tour routes we have to Italy .
How long does the route No . 5 last ?
2 weeks . Is that OK ?
Excuse me , I'd like to try some Chinese food .
We serve excellent Chinese food . Which style do you prefer ?
I know nothing about Chinese food . Could you give me some suggestions ?
It's divided into 8 big cuisines such as Cantonese food , Shandong food , Sichuan food etc .
Is there any difference ?
Yes , Cantonese food is lighter while Shandong food is heavier and spicy .
How about Sichuan food ?
Most Sichuan dishes are spicy and hot . They taste differently .
Oh , really . I like hot food . So what is your recommendation for me ?
I think Mapo bean curd and shredded meat in chili sauce are quite special and delicious . We have a Sichuan food dining room . May I suggest you to go there ? It's on the third floor .
Thank you .
Hi , my name is Lean , and I'm from Russia .
Nice to meet you , Lvan . My name is Alike . I'm from Japan .
To me English is a difficult language .
A second language is always difficult .
True , but English is harder than most . It ' s a crazy language .
A crazy language ? Why do you say that ?
One letter can have several pronunciations and one word can have several meanings .
Would you mind going to dinner with me tonight ?
I'd love to go out with you , but I'm sorry I'm busy tonight , but I'd like a rain check .
Do you have wool socks ?
Yes . We have socks made of various materials . These socks are of imported wool .
Can you guarantee the quality ?
Yes , absolutely .
Where are the panty-hose ?
Are you ready for your big interview tomorrow ?
What ' s to get ready ?
Lots ! Have you done any research about the company ?
Nope .
Have you updated your CV ?
Hi , this is China Southern Airlines . Is that Miss . Ye ?
Yes , speaking . What can I do for you ?
I am responsible for verifying your information before you come for the interview . What , uh , position do you want ... uh ... to do ?
Pardon ? Your way of articulating is too slow . Would you speak a little faster ?
Sorry , I am used to speaking in a slow pace , but I will try to be faster . What position do you want to do ?
Room service . Can I help you ?
Yes , tomorrow is my friend's birthday . Could I arrange a birthday party for him through you ?
Certainly .
I want to order a large birthday cake , several kinds of cold dishes , pastries and fruits .
Any drinks ?
Hello ?
Hello ? Mr . Bernie . My name is Lisa . I hope I ' m not disturbing you . I just heard about your daughter . I wanted to call you and tell you how much we ' ll miss her .
I ' m sorry . I think you are calling the wrong person . My name is not Mr . Bernie .
What ? That ' s odd . I ' m so sorry if I ' Ve bothered you .
It's too hot to read .
We'd better go out for a walk .
Which season do you like best ?
Spring .
How about summer ?
I dislike it most .
Why ?
Because the hottest season is summer in a year .
Do you mind if I borrow the notes from last week ?
Were you here last week ?
I was unable to make it .
How come ?
I was sick that day , and couldn't make it .
Well , here are the notes .
Are there any more ?
Sorry , here you go .
Thanks a lot .
Dear fellows . As you know , Mr . Ross will be leaving us very soon after his short but meaningful visit to our company .
I really want to stay a little longer , but I still have a meeting to attend . All in all , I am so impressed by your hospitality and your warm welcome . Thank you for the trouble you have taken .
Just as what I said in my welcome speech , Mr . Ross's visit to our company is meaningful for both our two companies . Thank you very much for your visiting . We will miss you all the time .
During my trip here , I learned a lot and I get to know our choice of choosing your company as our partner is definitely right . I can feel and sense the potential of your company . And at last I wish our further cooperation will be sound and successful .
That's our pleasure . Mr . Ross , your visit leaves gorgeous memory here . And I hope Mr . Halmiton , the president of your company can also have the chance to visit our company soon . Remember me to him , please .
Hi , Anna . I haven ' t seen you for ages . Where have you been ?
I ' Ve been away on holidays for sometime .
No wonder I haven ' t seen you recently . Where did you spend your holidays ?
I went with my husband . Our first stop was Bangkok . We stayed there for 5 days . Then we flew to Hong Kong , stopover for 3 days . Our last stop was China . We visited the Great Wall .
You must have a wonderful time .
Yes . We enjoyed ourselves very much . Have you traveled much , Luke ?
Donna , you really shocked everyone at the party last night !
You mean with my performance ?
Yes ! We have all assumed that you were the quiet , shy type .
I guess everyone has a few secrets up their sleeve .
Where did you learn to sing like that ?
I was part of a band in school .
You ? Wow . And why don't you ever dress like that at work ?
Well , you know how important a clean house is to your grandma .
Yes , I hear about it every time she comes here .
She was the head janitor at St . Mary's Hospital for thirty years , after all .
I think she misses that job and wants to take it out on us .
You know , maybe she's just a neat freak .
I think she just likes to make us miserable .
What do you do ?
I ' m a firefighter .
Really ? That ' s so cool .
I ' m really lucky to do something I really love .
What station do you work at ?
How many people are traveling with you today , miss ?
Just me . I'm traveling alone .
And how many bags do you have ?
Just one carry-on and one that I want to check .
You must be going to some island to relax in the sun where all you need is a swim suit and a toothbrush .
That's right .
Well , you have fun .
I heard that James was fired because he got a keep back of 20 thousands dollars from a vender .
That ' s open secret .
But mine could be a lie for his job .
How did you know that ?
I have an idea for Christmas this year .
What is it ?
Let's not exchange any gifts at all .
You big scrooge !
Hear me out . We can pool the money and give it to a family who could really use it !
But you may have some trouble convincing the kids .
Actual 1y , it was their idea first .
What's wrong ?
There's no power .
Have you checked the fuse box ?
Yes , the fuse had blown and I've changed it but now the motor keeps cutting out .
David , I ' m going to China .
Really ? How do you get the chance ?
You know . I took part in the Chinese contest . I was the best and they gave me this reward . I don ' t have to pay for my trip .
Congratulations . How lucky you are !
Thank you . I ' m leaving tomorrow morning .
I ' m sure you ' ll enjoy the trip . China is such a beautiful country .
I ' m sure I will .
Have a nice journey , Lily .
Post office offer lots of services nowadays , don ' t they ? Years age , you only really used the post office to send mail , save money , and send or collect money .
Nowadays , they offer so many services , you hardly know which one to choose . Take mailing for example . Do you send something first class or second class or do you use EMS ?
I save money in a post office saving account . There used to be just one kind of account , but now there are several . They each have different conditions and interest rates .
You can buy things at post office that were never sold there before . You can buy sweets and chocolates , newspapers , birthday and Christmas cards ...
Post offices are still the place to go to collect welfare benefits , like unemployment benefit and child support benefit . The queue are very long on the days when people collect those payment .
My son likes going to the main post office . They have a philately counter where he can buy stamps for his collection .
Do you think that the service at post offices has improved ?
I think it ' s better for some things , like sending and receiving money , but if you need to post something it sometimes takes longer than it used to .
Good morning . SRC international . How may I help you ?
Good morning . I'd like to speak to Peter . Chen Please .
Certainly . Who should I say is calling ?
This is Tim . Hunter from Hunter industries .
And what is it regarding please ?
We have an appointment for this afternoon . Mr . Chen will know why I'm calling .
Have the owners come up with a counter-offer to my offer to buy their home yet ?
The owners have counter-offered three hundred and thirty-five thousand dollars .
Should I accept their offer ?
There are two ways to respond . You can either come back with another offer or go with their counter-offer .
What if I make another offer , and they don ' t accept it ?
No one else has made an offer , so you could make another offer if you want to do so .
I think that I would like to offer three hundred and thirty thousand dollars as a counter-offer .
OK , I will present your counter-offer to the owners tonight .
How long before I find out what their decision is ?
When will we leave here ?
Do you have brothers and sisters ?
No , I am the only child in my family .
Oh , I have an elder sister . She is married .. Her husband is a businessman .
Do they live with you and your parents ?
Excuse me , where are the canned goods ?
The counter is at the end of the aisle . They are kept in the ice chest .
Thank you . And where can I buy some delicatessen ?
The delicatessen department is on the second floor .
Can I talk to you for a moment , manager ?
Yes , of course . What is it ?
I've decided to leave .
Leave ? Why ?
I've worked here for two years . And I want to do something different .
What do you mean by something different ?
I want to live abroad and learn to speak a different language .
I'm really sorry . But I understand .

Could I get some beef ?
What kind of beef would you like to get ?
Ground beef would be fine .
How many pounds would you like ?
Four pounds is enough .
What kind of ground beef do you want ?
I'm going to need extra lean ground beef .
I can get that for you .
Thanks so much .
You're welcome , Let me go wrap the ground beef up for you .
Did you go to the bank to withdraw money ?
Today is so hot , besides I had so much housework to do . My friend came for a visit and stayed for two hours . I didn ' t forget , but I had no time at all .
So you didn ' t . Is that right ?
Yes . I ' m sorry .
Why didn ' t you just answer my question directly ? Why would Chinese answer questions this way ? I simply asked if you did it or not . It ' s a very simple question . And Chinese often give the reason before they would give a direct answer .
Yes , I ' m sorry . I know it bothers you very much . But I don ' t know why Chinese sometimes would do this .
You know , today I asked a student if he brought his dictionary with him . It ' s a rule I made for the class that everyone brings a bilingual dictionary with them because sometimes they don ' t understand me . The funniest thing is that this student gave me a lot of reasons and no direct answer .
But you know if he brought it or not , right ?
What did you do at the office today ?
I had a really busy day . I had to work a little overtime . In the morning an important client called to place a large order . I had to check some things with my colleagues before confirming the order .
What kind of things did you need to check ?
The most important thing was to check that we had the goods in stock . If the goods are in stock , we can deliver them immediately . I also had to check the price . This customer is very important , so they get special prices .
I see . Did anything else happen ?
I received a lot of emails from potential clients that I had to answer . Each time , I had to check files to see what we had agreed at earlier meetings . Each client has different conditions and requirements .
It must be difficult to remember the details for each individual client .
Yes . That ' s why we have everything on computer files . We don ' t use much paper at our office . After lunch , I had to deal with a complaint from a client .
I hate dealing with complaints . Was it a legitimate complaint ?
Yes , it was . I managed to sort out the problem , but I was tied up with the matter for over an hour .
You certainly had a busy day .
Ladies and gentlemen . It's about time to land in New York . Here are a couple of forms for you to fill out .
What forms must we fill out , Miss ?
They are E / D cards . All passengers except American citizens must complete these forms .
I see . But why do we have to fill out these forms now ?
I'd like to mail this letter to Taipei .
Where ?
Taiwan .
That'll be 64 cents .
Okay . Can I also have a sheet of 20 sixty-four-cent stamps ?
Sure . The total comes to twelve dollars and eighty cents .
By the way , how much does it cost to send a package to Taiwan ?
That depends on the weight .
Hey , what's the matter ?
It doesn't matter . I just feel a little dizzy .
Are you sure that this has nothing to do with sleep ?
How do you like the food here ?
I don't like it very much . But every-body likes their own food best .
There are many things I miss . You can't get the ingredients here .
Are you sure ? All the big cities have specialty shops , which sell all sorts of ethnic foods .
Paul sends you his regards .
What companies are stockholders in this company , do you know ?
Yes , the main stockholder is International Business Machines Corporation , namely , IBM for short .
What section would you like to work in if you enter this company ?
I wish to work in the planning department .
What type of work will you expect to do at first ?
I expect to operate computers .
What are your plans for the future ?
I wish to move up to higher positions with acquisition of more experience in the future .
How long does it take to get here from your home ?
It's a twenty-minute bus ride .
How long do you think that we can depend on your working here ?
I ' ll work here as long as you expect me to .
You are single now , but what will you do when you get married ?
I ' Ve thought about that a lot . I know that many women take a job , planning to make a career of it , and then they change their mind . But I am hoping to make it my lifetime work . So if I get married , I will find some ways that I can continue my work .
Do you think you will want to continue working here even after you ' Ve had a child ?
I think so .
What ideas do you have if we employ you ?
Ever since I was a young girl , I ' Ve been clever with my hands . I ' Ve always enjoyed doing detailed work . If I could use that ability to make your products a little better and to benefit the company , I would be happy .
Do you have any particular conditions that you would like the company to take into consideration ?
No , nothing in particular .
If you are employed by us , how are you going to do your part of the work ?
I'll first get further information about our goals , ways , counterparts and management , etc . . Then I ' ll make my plan . And then I ' ll go with all my effort to see it is realized .
If you fail to do your work well , what are you going to do ?
I ' ll report it honestly . I ' ll give a correct analysis . I may quit the job - and pay compensation . But I have my way to judge whether I fail .
What do you think if you do not have much spare time on this job ?
People are supposed to work hard within regular work time , especially when it is an important work that is highly paid for . I don ' t mind work over spare time if it is paid for .
What are your expectations from working on this job ?
Getting more experience with a widely-known company like yours . Using my speciality in marketing and management . And getting advancement in salary and position . Show my enterprise , confidence and character in passing .
If you were choosing a person for this job , what kind of individual would you select ?
I would select the individual that has the most qualifications among all the applicants . He doesn ' t have to be the person if we have to fill the vacancy . But he has to be the best , even if we have to pay him higher .
If we do not employ you , what are you going to do ?
Excuse me . What time does the next bus for Boston leave ?
It leaves at 8: 30 .
I see . Are there any seats available ?
Just a moment , please . Yes , you can have a seat .
Good . How much is a one-way ticket ?
It's 38 dollars .
All right . Here's 40 dollars .
Here's your ticket and change .
Thank you . Which gate should I go to for the bus ?
Go to gate number 2 , please .
Thank you very much .
China is now a member of world trade organization . As a member of TO , China will have to make some changes in its economic policies so that it can follow the routines practiced by other TO members . Is it fair to China , do you think ?
It's a hard question , but I'm sure the reexamination of China's economic policies in the past may lead us to a right answer to the question . After the establishment of new China , our government employed numerous economics policies to stimulate the growth of China's economy . These policies , however , favored our domestic enterprises and protected them from international competition and these policies have contributed a lot to the rapid growth of both China economy and our domestic enterprises . After China's entry into TO , Chinese domestic enterprises will have to compete with their foreign counterparts . This new situation entails some changes of Chinese economic policies . These changes will spur Chinese enterprises to strengthen their competitiveness in the long run .
We can infer that the non-discrimination principle is one of the most important principles of TO agreement . This principle requires equal treatment of domestic and foreign enterprise . Does the principle also apply to domestic enterprise of different ownerships ?
Hey , your Chinese is coming along !
You think ?
Yeah . It ' s a lot better than mine .
But I still get stuck on the different tones . It drives me crazy .
Where to , ma'am ?
The Grand Hotel .
The Grand Hotel ?
Yes . Do you know where it is ?
No , Madam . I don't think I do .
It's the 11th Avenue , Park Street .
Excuse me , here is my claim tag , but I can't find my baggage .
How many pieces of baggage have you lost ?
Just one piece .
Can you tell me the features of your baggage ?
It's a big leather suitcase with my name ' Lily ' on it .
Don't worry . We will look it for you right now .
You know ... I did very poorly on that test .
Cheer up ! It's not the only chance in life to do well on a test . There'll be many more .
Well , you know how I am about exams . I'm a perfectionist .
Look , Bob . This is a photograph I took during my trip to Australia .
Let me see it , can I ? This is a good photograph . Who are these people ?
They ' re people I met during the trip . That ' s the ship we traveled on .
What a beautiful ship ! Who ' s this ?
That ' s the man I told you about . Remember ?
Ah yes . The one who offered you a job in Australia .
That ' s right .
Who ' s this ?
Guess !
It ' s not you , is it ?
That ' s right . I grew a beard during the trip , but I shaved it off when I came home .
Why did you shave it off ?
Can I help you ?
Yes , I ' m doing some research on Roman civilization . Do you have any books on the subject ?
These books over here are about ancient history . They might be helpful .
Can I check this one out ?
I ' m sorry . It ' s for reference only , so it must stay in the library . But you ' re welcome to look through it .
Ok . And I ' d like to check these books out .
All right . They ' re due back next Wednesday .
Why are you in court today ?
I got a ticket , and I would like to fight it .
Is the officer that pulled you over here today ?
He's here .
Tell me what happened .
The officer says that I ran a red light , but I didn't .
The officer wouldn't lie about that .
He must've , because the signal had a camera on top of it .
There was no picture taken of your license plate ?
I don't believe it took my picture .
I'm just going to let you go .
Hi ! This is John Li , is my car fixed yet ?
Did it take you a long time to quit smoking ?
I am really excited !
Why are you so excited ?
I just got done voting .
This was your first time voting , wasn ' t it ?
I just turned 18 last month .
That is so lucky of you .
Why ?
You turned 18 a month before the election .
I didn ' t think of it that way .
Are you serious ?
Seriously , but I ' m excited that I did .
Hi , Bill . Are you going to the commencement ?
Yes . Do you want to go with me ?
OK . ( Several minutes later . ) Let's go into the school auditorium .
Now that take this seat . Do you see those piles of red diplomas on the desks on the stage ?
Yes . I find my heart is now rising and falling like waves , all sorts of feelings welling up in my heart .
That's true . Four years ' trails and hardships , joys and sorrows of life are gushing out to my mind all together . I can hardly tell whether I am joyful or gloomy at the moment when I am about to leave the campus and to start a new stage of my life .
How time flies . Look , the president of the college has come onto the stage .
Would you like chicken or beef ?
Chicken , please .
Here you are .
Thank you . Oh , can I have another drink ?
I want to rent this car for 5 days .
OK . It will make your stay more convenient .
By the way , do I have to return the car here ?
How about this floor lamp ?
Fine , just get it ! We have been shopping for furniture for five hours ! I ' m so tired !
We still need to find an armoire and a dresser .
Fine ! I am going to go home and drop off this nightstand , coffee table and love seat while you look for the rest of the things .
Great ! Pick me up in about an hour because I think I ' ll also get a bean bag and a dining set .
While you are at it can you pick out a nice recliner ? I really want one so I can watch TV .
Do you like our new history teacher ?
I'm fed up with his endless talking .
You can't say that ! He's a very knowledgeable person .
What are you doing over the weekend ?
I'm planing to go bolling tonight . Tomorrow I was hoping to see a movie . What about you ?
I want to go camping , you know , just get a way for the weekend . I'm not sure I'll be able to , though .
Why not ?
Excuse me .
Yes ?
Can you tell me the way to the Peak Tram , please ?
Certainly . Go along Queen's Road ...
Along Queen's Road ...
Yes , and turn right at the Hilton Hotel .
Right at the Hilton .
Then go up Garden Road , past the Cathedral .
The Cathedral ?
Yes . Then cross the road at the next traffic lights . The Peak Tram is straight ahead . You can't miss it .
That's very kind of you . Thank you . Er ... have you got a pencil ?
Yes . Why ?
I am glad to have the opportunity of visiting your corporation . I hope we can do business together .
It's a great pleasure to meet you , Mr . White . I believe you have seen our exhibits in the showroom . What is it that particularly interests you ?
I am interested in your hardware . I've seen the exhibits and studied your catalogues . I think some of the items will find a ready market in France . Here is a list of requirements .
Thank you for your inquiry . Would you tell us what quantity you require so that we can work out the offer ?
I will do that . Meanwhile , could you give me an indication of the price .
Here are our FOB price lists . All the prices in the lists are subject to our confirmation .
What about the commission ? From European suppliers , I usually get a 3 to 5 % commission for my imports . It's the general practice .
As a rule we don't allow any commission . But if the order is sizable one , we will consider it .
You see I do business on a commission basis . A commission on your prices would make it easier for me to promote sales . Even 2 or 3 % would help .
Operator ! Operator !
Can I help you ?
Yes , I was talking to a party . We were disconnected .
I'm sorry , sir . Just hold the line , please . Now the line is connected . Go ahead please .
What price do you suggest for 300,000 sets of Article No . 2323 with London as the destination port ?
Let me see . It's £ 800 per set CIF London .
What commission terms can you offer ?
Usually the commission is three percent of the net invoice amount after deduction of discounts .
Couldn't you raise the commission to five percent ?
Considering our good relationship and our future business , we give you four percent . That's the best we can do . We can't go any further . What would you say to it ?
We have the orientation this afternoon .
What ' s going to be covered in the orientation ?
The company introduction , our mission , vision , various policies , insurances , pension plan , company ID , batch , telephone , e-mail set-up and training .
Quite a lot . All them one afternoon ?
Yes , it is not easy .
Hello Mr Fang ! It's good to see you again . What can we do for you today ?
Hello , Miao Ping . I'd like to open a Foreign Currency Account today .
That shouldn't be a problem , Mr Fang . Have you got your Certificate of Use of Foreign Exchange Account and the Foreign Exchange Account Opening Notice with you ? Our most widely used currencies are US dollar , Japanese yen and Hong Kong dollar .
I need to open a US dollar account , trade with America is going up each year .
We will transact this for you as soon as we can after the materials you have given me have been checked and verified .
You have been doing a great job this year and I am very satisfied with your work .
I am very happy to know my work could be recognized by you and our company .

This increase includes an 80 % married increase based on your achievements and increase responsibilities and then the additional 20 % increase were reflecting the changes in cost of living .
Can you tell me a little about Paris ?
Sure . What do you expect to know ?
I want to see some of the famous places like Eiffel Tower , the Seine River ...
And you shouldn't miss the Louvre Museum . You can stay there for at least a whole day .
That's a good idea . I almost forget it . What else ?
The night life there . It's so romantic !
Oh , wonderful ! How is the weather ?
I went there in August , and it was hot . But I was told autumn is the best season .
Hello , I am Richard from the Brooks Head-hunter company . Can I have a private talk with you ?
Er ? I am driving right now . Can you call back in 30 minutes ?
Sure . Hi , Monica , Richard again . Have you ever heard about our company ? It is an international one with good reputation . We have a lot of successful cases . If you ' re trying advance your career , I would love to help you . XYZ Company is one of our clients . They ' re in need of the talent like you . Would you be interested in taking part in an interview ? It is scheduled some time within this week .
Thank you for calling . I really appreciate your kindness . But right now , I ' m very busy preparing for an interview of another company . I don ' t think I am available for this opportunity .
Ok , I see . Good luck to you . You have my number . Call me when you change your mind . I can send you more detailed information about company and jobs you might be interested in if you give me your private e-mail address .
Well , I will text to you . Thank you , bye for now .
Taylor , you're sweating up a storm !
Your boyfriend , Bryan , wanted to toss the football . I think he wore me out .
Yeah , you look a little shaky . And pale . You seriously need some time in the sun .
You're like the tenth person to say that .
We're just worried about you , Taylor .
Matthew , do you know much about body language in countries around the world ?
Sure , I've picked up a few things from travelling around for work . Why ?
Well , I had a meeting today with a woman from Japan and she wouldn't stop bowing ! I didn't know what to do !
Did you bow back ?
No , I tried to shake her hand , but her hand was so limp I was a bit offended .
Well , Japanese businessmen and women typically bow to greet each other in Japan . She might have been offended by your strong handshake .
But she was in America ! Shouldn't she have known that strong handshakes in America signify confidence and respect ?
Things are different in Japan . You know , in some countries , making eye contact with others is considered rude .
Is that why she wouldn ' t look at me in the meeting ?
I think it's highly possible , yes .
The meeting really didn ' t go down well at all . I think I need to read up about intercultural communication before I have another meeting with someone from another country .
That's a good idea . When you don ' t know much about other cultures , the simplest thing can offend someone .
Well , everything is packed and ready to go .
It's hard to believe that we're really leaving . The past two weeks was like a dream .
Yes . Just think the blue sky , sunshine , mouth-watering food , centuries-old castles - -
And the people were so friendly !
Yeah , we would have been lost without the help of the locals .
Do you still remember the small restaurant at the corner of the street ?
Of course . That was the best pasta I've ever had .
I ate so much that I wasn't hungry until afternoon the next day .
If only we could eat there once more !
Maybe we can come here again next summer .
Hope the restaurant is still there .
Hey , what's the time ?
Oh , my god ! Only two hours left before the plane takes off . We need to be at the airport now .
What a great weekend that was !
My feelings exactly .
I really enjoy the beach in the summer .
I couldn't agree with you more .
We should come here more often .
You are absolutely right .
I'd like to come back next weekend .
Would you like to go to the movies tonight ?
Well , I just saw a horror movie last night . It almost frightened me to death .
Well , we could see something different like a detective film .
I don't care for a detective film . It also makes me nervous .
How about a comedy ?
No , I don't think comedies today are natural or cheerful .
How about a love story then ?
No , romance is boring .
What's you opinion ?
Let's go to see a war movie , shall we ?
Really ?
Certainly . Is there anything wrong ?
I ' Ve gotta hand it to you , you really did a good job !
So glad that you think so !
I think you deserve a promotion .
Did you hear about Joe ? She hasn't eaten for days .
Why ? What's eating her ?
Love sick . You know who she's in love with ?
I don't have the slightest idea .
Someone you're living with .
What ? Not my Dad , I hope ! ?
Come on , Mary , it's your brother , Jack .
No kidding ! Jack is such a log ! He's never dated a girl .
The problem with Joe is that she's too shy to tell him .
And the problem with Jack is that he seems to have no interest in girls . He's putting his heart into his stamp collection .
Have you had enough time to look over the menu ?
Yes , we are almost ready to order .
Let me remind you of the specials of the day , which are posted on the board .
Oh , that all sounds so good ! Can we get the sauce on the side ?
Yes , we would be happy to prepare the food to meet your special needs .
I was wondering if you have any vegetarian choices .
Yes , the roasted vegetable salad is good , and the portabella mushroom burger is also a good choice .
I think that I would like to order the broccoli noodles , please .
That is an excellent choice , and I could bring you your salads now or bring them with your dinner .
Are you really dating with Frank ?
Yeah . But in my heart of hearts , I find he ' s not very much to my liking .
Then why not keep away from him ?
The problem is that I just have no one to turn to right now .
Hong , I really need to call back to the UK but I can ' t afford to pay for the roaming charges .
Well , why don ' t you use a local SIM card ?
Can I do that ?
Yes . Just go to the convenience store and ask for a SIM card . Then insert it into your phone .
I see . How much will that cost ?
Well it ' s 100 RIB for the SIM card then it will cost you about 10 RIB per minute to call the UK .
Have you thought of moving at all , Sarah ?
We ' Ve thought about it , but my husband and I can ' t afford it right now . The only thing we could afford would be living in the slums , which is something I don ' t want to do .
Buying a house can be expensive , but there are ways to find cheaper houses .
Like what ?
Well , sometimes the city auctions offer houses to the community . You ' d have to make a quick decision about the offer in a day , but you would definitely save money doing it that way .
That ' s a good idea . Do you know anyone who has done that before ?
Sure , my sister-in-law and her husband just bought a house that way . They ' re pretty satisfied with it .
Is the house pretty run-down .
Not at all . The woman , who owned it , took good care of it . But when she died , she had no family left and no will , so the government had to sell it for her .
Was it a very old house ?
It was about 75 years old . There were a few repairs that needed doing , but it didn ' t take a lot of money or time .
Is it in a good location ?
How was your flight from Hong Kong ?
Okay . What time is the meeting tomorrow ?
What was that all about ?
We had a difference of opinion .
Is she going to be okay ?
Honey , I've got good news for you .
What is it ?
You are going to be a father .
What ? Do you mean that you are pregnant ? Is it true ?
Yes . We'll have our baby soon .
Oh , dear , I'm so happy .
Welcome . How can we be of service today ?
Hello . My aunt in the US has sent me $ 500 . She sent it yesterday , using the standard service . It's my birthday today , you see .
Well , happy birthday . If it was sent yesterday using the usual service , it should be here already . You do have an account with us , right ?
Yes . Here's my card . Do you need my ID ?
Please . Just to double check all the details .
Hello , this is Francis from XYZ Company . I would like to discuss with you about a new project some time next week . Do you have time to meet ?
Well , I am not sure . Lets me check my agenda
Ok .
I am free on Tuesday afternoon from 2 PM to 4 PM , is it convenient for you ?
It is ok with me . So I will be arriving at your office around two fifteen PM .
What's combined transportation ?
If the goods are to be transshipped from one means of transportation to another during the course of the entire voyage , it's called ' combined transportation ' .
Why is it necessary ?
We are doing ' Secret Santa ' at the office again this year .
Whose name did you pick ?
I got Jacob . Any ideas what to get him ?
Booze !
Hi , Ellen . That outfit looks terrific !
Thanks , Jim . I didn ' t think guys paid attention to stuff like that .
No , we just don ' t usually admit it !
Did you go to the concert last weekend ?
No , I didn't . And you ? Was it good ?
Yes , I did . I enjoyed it a lot . There was a folk singer , a violinist and a pianist .
How much was the ticket ?
what's your favourite steps ?
it's hard to say , but i do love foxtrot and waltz .
how about rock and roll .
to tell the truth . i don't like it , it's too noisy .
and can you dance tango ?
oh , it's really beautiful . but i just can't dance it well .
don't be so modest . i am sure you can dance it very well . then i'll see you at six . is that all right ?
ok .
Dai Ling .
Oh , Henry , I haven't seen you for ages . Come in . Let me take your coat . How are you getting along ?
Very well , thank you .
Please take a seat . Everything would be ready in a minute .
Can you bring me a glass of orange juice , please ? I am quite thirsty .
Here you are . Here you go . We have cocktail and salad , fried chicken , French fries and icecream for dessert . Eating chicken while it's hot . it tastes better .
Wow , you're right . Everything is absolutely delicious . Please pass the pepper .
Here you are . Taste the French fries .
They're soft .
Would you like some more ?
No more , thank you .
Here is to our friendship and health !
I like the kid . He ' s so lovely .
How old is he ?
Gordon , you're ever so late .
Yes , I am sorry . I missed the bus .
But there's a bus every ten minutes , and you are over 1 hour late .
Well , I missed several buses .
How on earth can you miss several buses ?
I , ah ... , I got have late .
Oh , come on , Gordon , it's the afternoon now . Why were you late really ?
Well , I ... I lost my wallet , and I ...
Have you got it now ?
Yes , I found it again .
When ?
This morning . I mean ...
Look , Jimmy's report came today .
Let's have a look . What is this ? Where are all the grades ?
He's in the third grade Sam ! You see under each subject that he is being taught in school , he receives a mark from one to three . A one means his achievement or work is excellent . Here in Science for example he got a two , which means its satisfactory .
What about here in physical education ?
He got a three here which means it's unsatisfactory . We should work on that with him .
What kind of sport do you often do ?
I go jogging , how about you ?
I used to swim a lot , but now I'm taking gym classes .
Don't be too sad . If you really think that you have no feeling with him , then , in my opinion , getting divorced maybe is the best way to solve the problem .
I know clearly at the bottom of my heart . I just can't set my mind at rest because of the child . She's little . She cannot understand us and accept such truth .
Yeah , child is the matter . Don't tell Jenny the truth , only tell her the white lie . When she grows up , you find the suitable opportunity to tell her .
I ' d like to make a collect call to Beijing China , please .
What ' s the number you are calling , please ?
The number I am calling is 86-10- 4016-9988
What ' s the name of the person you are calling ?
Marty Smith . M-A-R-T-Y , S-M-I-T-H
Thanks . What ' s your name and phone number , please ?
My name is Jennifer Smith . My phone number is 610-934-9901 .
Do you want to hear a funny joke ?
OK . Are you sure it's funny , though ?
Well , you'll see .
OK .
OK , an Englishman , a Scotsman , and an Irishman were going on a trip across the desert , and they could only take one thing with them .
I see .
So they met up at the start of the journey and showed each other their equipment .
Oh , that's funny !
Hang on , I haven't finished yet .
Oh , sorry .
Well , as I was saying , they showed each other what they had decided to bring . The Englishman had brought some water . " If we get thirsty , we'll have something to drink , " he said . The Scotsman brought a map . " If we get lost , we'll be able to find our way . " The Irishman had brought a car door .
A car door ? You mean just one car door ?
Yep . A car door . " Why the door ? " the others asked him . " Well , " he said , " If it gets hot , we can open the window . " Do you get it ?
Have you heard anything about Markweed Inc . ? They have called me back for interview , and I'm considering taking a job with them .
Well , to start with , Markweed Inc . has a reputation for being one of the best employers in the field .
The best ... huh ? With so many companies out there , how did they establish themselves in such a solid position on top ?
First of all , they have an excellent benefits package for all employees , even the maintenance staff have health and dental coverage .
Really ? What about the pay rate ? Are the wages pretty high ?
From what I hear , they are very reasonable . A lot of the prestige the company has built is because they have attacked some high profile employees with their incentives .
Well , what about the work environment ? Not every one is motivated solely by money .
Doctor , may I ask my mother ' s condition ?
Well , you'd better sit down for this . It has been terminal lung cancer .
Oh my god . Please save her life .
We ' ll try our best , but you'd better prepare for the worst .
I see , D . But I plead you to help her .
I have said that we will try our best . You can trust us . But you know her situation .
How long do you expect her to live ?
So Chris , I've heard that you're from a big family . How many people ?
Nine total . Seven children and my parents .
Seven children ? That's a lot . Why did your parents have so many ?
Well , my mother came from a big family , and wanted to have one of her own . My father was an only child , and didn't really care about having a large family , but my mother talked him into it .
Jeez , seven children . That must have a lot of problems . We have four children in my family and my grandparents can never get our names right .
It can be hard , and there are certain sacrifices you have to make .
Like what ? I assume that there's no privacy .
That's one . Another is the lack of personal property . Everything you have , from toys to clothes , is used by your brothers and sisters . Especially clothes . Three quarters of my wardrobe are hand-me-downs .
And the age gap is also annoying . There's a ten-year difference between my younger brother and me . We have nothing in common .
All of you have reported your achievements . I'd like to remind you that we must be aware of the threat we face .
The same with the previous speaker , we must know how things stand with us .
Yes , we must keep a clear mind with the tough competition .
Mike's going to have a self-driving traveling across the country .
Really ? He is so great .
You don't want to join him ?
Surely I want . It's quite popular nowadays .
The new computer software is driving me crazy ! I really need a break !
I know what you mean , Carol . I ' Ve had nothing but trouble with it . They say it ' s supposed to be easy !
That ' s what I ' Ve heard . But as far as I ' m concerned , it takes a genius to figure it out . Can you pass the sugar , please ?
This is the end , Jane . I don't want a girlfriend who goes out with other guys all the time .
I won't do it again . Please forgive me .
Hello , Bill ! How are things going ?
Quite well . thank you . And what about you ?
Excuse me , Miss .
Yes . May I help you ?
I'm a graduate student here in mathematics . I've just come from China and I've never used a western library before . I'll be here for five years , so I'd like to learn to use the library as efficiently as possible . I wonder if someone might have time to show me around .
I'd be very glad to show you around , but I'm very busy right now . Could you come back about 3 thirty ?
Sure . 3 thirty this afternoon .
Good . See you later .
My TV hasn't got a clear picture recently . How ' s yours ?
It's OK . I can always get a clear picture on it .
I think something is wrong with mine .
I need to get internet .
Which kind of internet connection do you want to get ?
What kind can I get ?
There is dial-up or DEL .
Which one do you feel is best ?
I would get DEL if I were you .
DEL is better than dial-up ?
It's the best choice ; plus , it won't tie up your phone line .
I'm not sure what that means .
Dial-up is connected through your phone , unlike DEL .
That'll make it impossible for me to use .
I need some more amenities , please .
I'm not sure I'm following you , sir .
Specifically , I'm talking about the little things , like soap and shampoo .
Oh , now I understand ! So , you've already used up all your amenities ?
No , I'm not even halfway through my supply .
I'm losing you , sir . What's the problem ?
What's the use of going to a hotel if you don't take home souvenirs ?
Okay , I got it . You're collecting souvenirs !
There you go . My friends expect me to bring home souvenirs .
Have you visited our souvenir shop , sir ? It's loaded with all kinds of items .
I've never paid for a hotel souvenir in my life , and I don't intend to start now .
Did you have a good holiday ?
I met a girl in elevator this morning . She works in a company upstairs . She said she envied the casual way we dress for work . She complained about the dress rule in her company . It requires everyone to wear formal clothes from Monday to Friday .
Well , I was wondering where those people with professional attire come from . Now , I know the answer .
You know , in a sense , a suits and ties are compulsory for male employees even in July , and no jewelry allowed for most of the female employees . Even the reasonable male leaf is returning the rule , isn ' t that strict ?
To some extent , it is . Anyway , whether they like it or not , they do give people a very good impression .
Tonight is a party night ! What drinks do you think we need ?
Well , not everyone wants to drink beer . Make sure there are some soft drinks and juice . Nothing ' s as refreshing as iced drinks on a hot day .
I don ' t think we need too much in the way of soft drinks . Two super bottles of Cola should cover everyone . What about wine ?
Just buy a cask of wine . Have you bought ice yet ?
No , once I fill the tub with beer , I ' ll get the ice . The beer will be cool if you put the tub under the ice . The cooler , the better .
I think a bottle of champagne would be a good idea . It ' s appetizing and tasty .
Would you like some more rice ?
Can I help you ?
Yes , I'd like a hamburger , please .
Do you want it with everything ?
No . Don't put mustard in it .
All right . You have a hamburger without mustard . Anything else ?
Sprite with ice , please .
OK . Here you are .
How is Rose now ?
It ' s still touch and go . We don ' t see how she can make it .
Excuse me , sir . Can I help you ?
Can I help you ?
Yes , I'd like to change some money to cover my expenses here . What's today's rate of US dollar against the RIB yuan ?
Let me see , the buying rate is RIB 808 per $ 100 . How much would you like to change ?
$ 200 altogether .
Would you mind showing me your passport ?
Here it is . And how much RIB shall I get ?
Let me see . $ 200 makes RIB 1,616 . Here is the cash and exchange memo . Please check it .
You have a nice apartment .
Thank you . My wife would be very happy to hear this .
She must have done a lot of work on it .
Hello sir , may I help you ?
Yeah , I accidentally dropped my phone in the toilet .
I see . Well , you have come to the right place . We have over one hundred models of more than twenty leading mobile phone manufacturers .
Sounds good . I don ' t want it to be too expensive , maybe something mid-range .
We have this new ETC smart phone . It comes with the Android OS so you can download applications . It also has a built-in camera , mp3 player and touch screen . It works on the 3G network so you have fast access to the internet wherever you are .
What about Wi-fi ?
Of course ! You can access the internet from any hotspot as well as from home .

Yes . But this one is full , you have to wait for the next one .
My brother joined the army last year .
Oh , what does he look like ? Is he tall ?
He's tall and strong .
Excuse me may I know the name of your corporation ?
China National Textiles Import and Export Corporation
We found your samples very attractive . We ' re interested in buying your garments if your prices are reasonable

Can I have a reduction of seven percent ?
It depends on how much you order
Can I use the FAS terms ?
Oh , there is something wrong with my car .
Your car is rather old . Why not change a new one ?
I want to change a new car . I like Honda best , especially the red one . But it is too expensive .
Oh , there is a car exhibition tomorrow afternoon . I have two tickets . Would you like to go there with me ?
Yeah . Maybe I can find my favorite car in addition to Honda .
I have a little problem with room 507 .
What exactly seems to be the problem , Mr . Sandals ?
I found cockroaches in my room .
Cockroaches , sir ? That's unbelievable .
I've seen at least nine different cockroaches in my room .
Sir , are you sure you haven't seen the same silverfish nine times ?
There are nine cockroaches in my room . I don't have time for your disbelief !
So you've been attending night classes for a while now . Do you feel it's helping you ?
Yes , furthering my education is already bringing about positive results in my workplace as it has boosted my confidence . As well the tutoring system my school employs offers courses uniquely suite
Really ? That's great that you found a school that puts your need first .
As well my company has been very supportive about my decision . They ' Ve cut back my working hours in order to accommodate my studies .
That's great . They must really be committed to staff development .
Jenny , you're too lazy . You should do some exercise . See , you're getting fat .

They're doing a seventeenth-century program .
And who is directing ?
That'll be eight dollars , please .
Do you have a room available for this weekend ?
Yes , we have several rooms available . Would you like two twin beds or one queen size bed ?
I'd like two twin beds , please .
The check in time is 2 p . m . If you get here before that time the room won't be ready .
That's fine . Do you have any specials for your guests ?
We offer a complementary breakfast buffet and free parking .
Good . Let me give you my credit card number to reserve a room .
I am not convinced by your explanation . Could you explain it ?
Sorry , I really can't do that . There's little time left for us .
I can't accept your excuse . It's five o'clock .
But I have an appointment with Ann .
When in Rome , do as the Romans do , they say .
What do you mean ?
Roman is living in Rome , of course . And go to work by car , or bus , or on foot .
I think the Romans do what everyone else does .
Certainly .
And Roman really loves life . He knows how to enjoy himself .
Not always . But they like good meal .
Really ?
How can I go there to have a taste ?
Paul , let's go and see Grandpa this afternoon .
But Grandpa will be working .
It's Saturday .
I hear you have just shown your hand first to Lin Ping .
Yes .
If I were in your position , I wouldn't give up an inch .
Hello ?
Hi , Randy . What are you going to do this weekend ?
I ' Ve no idea . Nothing really .
How about going hunting with me ?
Wonderful .
Okay . I ' ll pick you up around 6
Hey Jack . How were your classes this semester ?
They were not too bad . I really liked my poli-sci class .
Would you consider it your favorite class ?
I don't know if I would call it my favorite , but it ranks up there .
What class was your favorite then ?
I took a business communication class last year and it was terrific .
I'm so hungry ! Can you buy me a burrito ?
I don't have any money to buy you a burrito .
Please ? I haven't eaten anything all day .
Look , I only have money to buy myself a burrito .
I'm so hungry , I could eat a whole cow !
If you're so hungry , why don't you ask someone else for money ?
I get paid on Friday , I'll pay you back then .
Well , I guess on Friday , then you can eat .
That's pretty messed up .
Why don't you just go home and eat ?
I don't want to go all the way home just to eat .
Sam , we are hard up for the everyday expenses . When can you find a job .
I'm looking for it , but you see , the market shard for jobs , too .
I ' d like to take this opportunity to thank you for everything you did for me .
It ' s my pleasure . I enjoyed working with you .
I wouldn ' t be able to make it without your help .
Hello ? Hello ?
( No response ; Silence )
Hello ? Who is calling , please ?
( No response )
How can I tell her about this ?
Don't worry , you'll find a way .
There is no need to be so frustrated .
How can you live without job in the future ?
Wow , there are so many lanterns to appreciate . Now , I can see why it's called the Lantern Festival . It deserves its name .
Yeah . People always enjoy the lighted lanterns and the gala performances .
What are they doing over there ? People keep on gathering there .
Did you notice the characters on the lanterns ?
Sure . But you know that I can't read any Chinese characters . What do they say ?
They are puzzles . It's a tradition to solve the puzzles on the lanterns during the Lantern Festival .
Very interesting . But I'm afraid we'd better do something else . Hey , look ! There is a huge lantern there . Let's get close to it .
It's really eye-catching . It's the biggest dragon lantern I've ever seen in all my life .
Really ? Then I'm really lucky . Oh , it's spewing fireworks from its huge mouth .
Very impressive . It's made of glass which makes it even brighter .
There are many Chinese characters on its body , too . What are they about ? Puzzles ?
Hey , let's arm wrestle !
Not now .
Chicken ! You're afraid I'll beat you .
I have to go up to London for a couple of days next week . Would you like to come ?
That would be nice . How are you getting there ?
Well , I prefer to go on the train , but I suppose you want me to take the car .
Oh , I much prefer to go by car , then we don't need to get to the station with our luggage and ...
And I've got to drive . You know I'm not fond of that . I found it much more relaxing to sit in the train .
Which is more expensive ?
But very much quicker . But I know we'll never agree on this subject . You prefer the car . I prefer the train .

My name is Blanca .
Hah ! For three hours while you threw up . And Femi dumped me for that . I really loved her .
I'm so sorry , Taylor . Go talk to her . I'm sure she'd be happy to see you .
She probably wouldn't even recognize me . She's probably married .
Yi-jun said Femi was talking about you . So get out there , Tiger !
Was she really ? So you're telling me there's a chance ?
There is too much traffic in Taipei these days , I think cars should be banned .
I'm not sure about that . How would people get to work ?
Well , why not use buses or the MET ?
Well , it may not be that simple . Not everyone likes public transport .
Why not ? There is nothing wrong with our buses and trains .

It's very hot , the temperature is often over 40 ° C .
Do you like the weather in Seattle ?
Not really . But I like it in spring and fall . I don't like it in winter .

Speaking .
I ' m calling to offer you the position of computer engineer .

I agree with you . What do you want to do , except sleeping ?
Let me think . Oh , awful ! I still have not finished the chart which was assigned by Mr . Wharton on Friday . So that task will make my busy .
I am better . I will go out to have a visit to my aunt . Why don't we have fun on weekend ?
Mr . Brown , are your children always kicking up a row like this ? I cannot concentrate on my paper .
Sorry , Mr . Black . I ' m trying to make them quiet .
I ' m afraid if the noise goes on , I shall have no alternative but to leave .
Well , what is your trouble ?
I'm not feeling well , doctor . I have a sore throat .
Have you any aches and pains ?
Yes , my back aches .
I'll take your temperature . How long have you been feeling ill ?
It began the night before last .
You have a temperature , but it's nothing serious . It's probably just the flu . I'll give you a prescription . Take this to the chemist's . Take one tablet every four hours . You should stay in bed tom
Lots of people are ill at the moment .
How can I help you ?

Thanks . Does it suit me ?
Yes , it suits you very well . It certainly is unique . I don ' t think I ' Ve seen anything like it before .
I know . That ' s why I bought it . I hate wearing the same styles like everybody else is wearing .

It ' s very nice of you to say so . I should say you are glamorous yourself , as a matter of fact .

Yes . This way , please . Our shortbread is in a variety of flavors , such as almond , walnut , lotus seed , etc . And different packaging has different weights . We can make packages within a reasonable range of any size you require .

No , I can't . I've really got important business .

I'd like to work in a law firm to enrich my experience and put what I've learned into practice .

Of course it counts . What kind of work did you do there ?
I did clerical stuff and ran errands .
In this office , we encourage full attendance by offering a bonus . If you take any leaves , we'll deduct money from your salary .

1,000 RIB .
Not just a thoughtful granddad , but a generous one too .
have you bought a present for jim ' s birthday yet ?
no , I haven ' t . I can ' t think of anything to get him .
I ' m having the same problem . I want to get something really special . Jim always seem to know exactly what to get people as gifts .
I know . He bought me that beautiful sweater for my birthday . It was exactly what I wanted . And it fit me perfectly !
he bought me an iron .
that doesn ' t sound like a great present .
maybe not , but my iron was getting old . In fact , it stopped working the week after jim bought me the new one . It ' s as if he knew that my old iron would soon stop working !
let ' s think . He loves football , doesn ' t he ? I saw signed photographs of famous footballers in a shop near hear . Let ' s go and have a look . You know which team he supports , don ' t you ?
yes , I do . Let ' s go . We should be able to find something suitable . We should get him something old ... something historic .
it ' ll be an expensive present , but we can share the cost .
I ' ll be happy to get him something special , even if it coasts a little extra .
Should I ask Sara to the party ?
What a wonderful sight !
Yes . I've dreamed a thousand times that I could lie down here to relax .
We are tired of jobs and competition . We need a quiet place .
I'd like to stay here for all my life if possible .
So would I . Look , it might be going to rain .
I don't think it will spoil our trip .
It will give us better feeling and atmosphere if it rains .
Let's kick off our shoes to walk on the green flag stoned roads .
Are you OK ?
I'm fine . I'm just so touched by the sad story .
So I can say now that you must have enjoyed the opera . Which scene is your favorite ?
I love them all . But if I had to name one as the best , I would say it's the ending .
What's it about ? You know , I couldn't help falling asleep .
Did you ? I didn't notice that . But still you should know it , for you have seen it with Laura before .
I guess I've done the same thing last time I was here with her , too . I mean falling asleep . For me , this one is not that attractive .
Then I doubt if you like operas at all .
Yes . I like Carmen very much . But I don't mind if you want to tell me about this one .
OK , then . The man was old and he was visiting his wife's grave , with a rose in his hand . When he got there , he saw someone already put a rose on her grave .
Very impressive . And I do like the leading actress who has an amazing voice .
Me , too . There was always a good round of applause every time she sings .
Yes , the applause ! That was what kept waking me up during the show .
And it's been such a faultless performance with the perfect lighting , and music . Just amazing !
No doubt , it's not a simple thing to put on a ' phantom show ' .
Ok ... I ' ll talk to you later . Bye
Carrie , are you ok ? You seem a bit down .
I just got off the phone with my boyfriend . He is always getting upset and losing his temper over nothing . It ' s so hard to talk to him at times .
Maybe it ' s just that he is stressed out from work or something . He does have a pretty nerve wracking job you know .
Yeah but , he is always in a really foul mood . I try to find out what ' s bothering him or get him to talk about his day but , he always shuts down and brushes me off .
Men are like that you know . They can feel nervous , anxious or on edge and the only way they can express it is by trying to hide it through aggressiveness .
I guess you are right . What do you think I should do ? He wasn ' t always this grouchy you know ...
Talk to him , try to cheer him up when he is down and if that doesn ' t work , I say get rid of him and get a new one !
What can I do for you ?
I would like to cancel one of my accounts .
Is there a problem with your account ?
I only need one .
What about all your money in that account ?
Could you please transfer that money to my remaining account ?
That ' s fine .
I appreciate it .
Would you like to make a withdrawal ?
That ' s all for today .
I ' ll just cancel your account right now .
What courses are you going to take next year ?
Well , I am certainly going to take chemistry and physics , but I haven't decided on the other subjects yet . I ' d like to take English .
Why are you going to take English with chemistry and physics ?
Because I want to study English literature . But I think chemistry is better for getting a job .
Of course it depends on what you are going to do when you leave college . Have you decide what you are going to do when you graduated ?
Excuse me , can you tell me where I can take a taxi ? This is the first time I have been in England , so I don't know where I can do at all .
Of course . Don ' t worry . I'll call one for you .
Thank you very much , by the way , is it quite expensive to take a taxi ?
Yes , besides it versa according to the distance .
All right . I only hope to get a skillful driver , and drive me to my stop safe way .
No problem .
Thanks a lot , bye bye .
Are you going out , Jack ?
well , I finished my last final today .
the end of all the hard work for my master's . what a nice feeling to get my degree !
do you want to attend the convocation ?
certainly . After years of hard work , I wouldn't miss it . By the way , where can I find cap and gown ?
do you want to have them made or do you want to rent them ?
oh , I think they're provided by the school for that special day .
no . those you have to provide for yourself .
what do most of the students do ?
well , most of them only need a cap and gown for that particular convocation service , but some of the education majors have had them made , because they will be faculty members , and they'll need them f
then , I might as well have them made .
Mary , don't move . Stand right there . It's a good shot . The background is very pretty .
hold it a second . I want to fix my hairpin .
it doesn't matter . Say'cheese ' .
here's Lisa . May I take a picture with her ?
Are you okay , man ? You don ' t look very well .
Ugh , I feel terrible . I went out last night with Trevor , and things got a little out of hand .
Nice ! So , where did you guys go ?
We hit a couple of local bars , and met up with some friends . Everything was cool until Mike came along , and it turned out that it was his birthday yesterday !
Oh no ! Mike ' s birthday is a drinkfest for sure !
Tell me about it ! We drank everything in the bar !
Is that why you missed work today ?
Yeah . I woke up this morning feeling really nauseous . I threw up like five times .
Www !
I was so dehydrated that I drank like a gallon of water , and my head has been pounding all day . I swear , I ' m never gonna drink again !
Too bad man , tonight is Tracy ' s going away party and she asked if you were gonna go .
What are you doing , karen ?
I ' m making a shopping-list , Tom .
What do we need ?
We need a lot of things this week . I must go to the grocer's . We haven't got much tea or coffee , and we haven't got any sugar or jam .
What about vegetables ?
I must go to the greengrocer's . We haven ; t got many tomatoes , but we've got a lot of potatoes . I must go to the butcher's , too . We need some meat . We haven't got any meat at all .
Have we got any beer and wine ?
No , we haven't . And I'm not going to get any !
I hope that you've got some money .
I haven't got much .
What can I get for you today , sir ?
I would like a cup of decaf with cream and no sugar .
Would you like anything else with that ?
How fresh is that apple pie over there ?
Our pie is brought in fresh every day . And I can tell you it's delicious .
Okay , throw in a piece of that pie then .
Is this to stay or to go ?
Cheers ! To our first night in our new apartment .
It's so quiet . I'm not really used to it .
All you hear is the crickets and the breeze .
It's a little eerie . I'm sure the silence will begin to grow on me .
Well , I think it's fabulous . And the neighbors don't even seem to exist .
I beg your pardon ?
I said , ' Do you need any help ? '
That's very nice of you . I guess I could use some help .
Can I help you find something ?
I would like to buy a new fridge .
Is there one in particular that you like ?
I was looking at this Kenmore refrigerator .
Ah yes , that is a great refrigerator .
What's so great about it ?
It's both affordable and it comes with all the appliances .
What appliances ?
It comes with an ice maker , water dispenser , and there is a lot of room inside .
May I see the inside for myself ?
Be my guest .
Can I help you , Miss ?
Do you have anything which can prevent wrinkles and freckles ?
What is your skin type ?
My skin is kind of oily .
This nutrition cream is for anti-wrinkling and whitening which is a newcomer brand .
How much is it ?
$ 60 . The price is reasonable for its large quantity . What's more , there are some gifts attaching for you .
Sounds good . What are the gifts attaching ?
You can take one tonic or hand cream .
I will choose the tonic .
No problem . You can try this kind of gel which can prevent freckle , the effect will be better if you use this powder foundation applied with it .
How can I lose weight , doctor ? I seem to get fatter even when I just look at food ?
Well , Jim . It is a combination of how much you eat , the type of food you eat , and when you eat your meals .
I never eat breakfast though .
That's a big mistake , you should always have a good breakfast . You will not run your car without fuel , and yet you won't expect your body to work without food .
I never thought about it that way .
I bet you eat a large evening meal , then sit and watch TV or read a book . Then instead of burning off your energy , your body stores it as fat .
Oh doctor , I feel so foolish .
Well control is really using common sense when you plan your eating habits .
What are you doing this Saturday ?
Not much .
Do you want to go see a movie ?
That sounds good .
What's playing at the Century Fox ?
Candlelight in the Window
Should we go see it ?
I'd rather not . I don't like horror movies .
How about ' Run of the Mill ? '
No . I heard that's really boring .
Why don't we go to a concert instead ?
I'd like to go to Suzhou next week . Do you know how to get there by train ?
First , you should check the schedule and see which trains go to Suzhou . Make sure which train you want to take and book a ticket .
I see . Do you know how much the ticket is ?
It depends on which train do you take .
Is it far from here to Suzhou ?
Yes , it stops more than ten times on the way to Suzhou .
How long will it take to get there ?
Freeze !
How much is this ?
You mean the large one or the small one ?
The large one .
They're on special this week . They've been reduced to five dollars .
Is this the only kind you have ?
No . We have some that are different in style but not in color . They're over there . Do you see the sign ?
Oh , yes . I think I'll look at those over there before I decide .
Mark , you've been coming home late these days . What are you busy doing ?
Nothing important . I've been working overtime lately .
How many hours do you work each day now ?
12 hours , including 5 hours overtime .
That's tough indeed ! Do you think your health can afford ?
I don't care . I need money .
Surely you'll be paid extra for overtime , but do you think it's really worth ?
Yes , I think so . When I work overtime I'm paid time and a half .
Oh , yes . Money comes faster in that way than otherwise .
But jobs with a lot of overtime are quite limited . Employers usually don't like to pay for overtime if they can manage .
Did you hear who won the English speech contest ?
No , who won ?
It's George .
Hi , Mark ! Hi , do you have a minute ?
Oh , I'm sorry , Nigel . I'm rushing to a meet right now .
Sure , no problem . Can we fix a time to talk later ?
Sure , but this week is crazy for me . Can we make it next Monday ?
Ok , see you 10 o'clock next Monday !
We're going to have to postpone the meeting .
Why ?
Excuse me . Nature calls .
I ' d love to have my own farm .
It would be very hard work . Are you sure ?
I wouldn ' t mind getting up early morning and the physical work would make me fit and healthy .
Running a farm would be totally different to you current job .
That ' s one reason I ' d like to try it . I ' d really like to get away from working 9 to 5 in an office .
You ' d need a lot of training before becoming a farmer . It ' s not something you can just walk into .
My uncle owns a farm and I ' Ve spent some time working with him . I love being in the countryside with farm animals and green fields .
Happy birthday , John . Many happy returns of the day !
Thank you , Alice . Come in to the dining-room . I ' m going to cut the cake soon . Have some please .
Well , making good wishes .
Ok . I ' m pretty happy and I can go abroad .
How ' re you today ?
Pretty good , thanks . And you ?
What ' s the main idea in this essay ?
Table-tennis is our national game .
Yes , I like ping-pong very much , but I can't play well .
He has to deliver letters every day .
Poor man , he must be terribly fed up with it .
Oh , no , he likes the job .
So , did I tell you about my New Year ' s resolution ? I ' Ve decided to go on a diet .
And you ' re going to completely transform your eating habits , right ?
Exactly ! I ' m going to cut out all that junk I eat . no more chips , no more soda , no more fried food .
I ' Ve heard this one before .
But this time I ' m going to stick to it . I really mean it ! Trust me , Carol , I ' m going to be a new man in one year ' s time !
Well , I guess we ' ll just have to wait and see .
Do you know our major business ?
Yes , I know it is one of the leading industries in the petrochemical field .
Do you have a long-term plan for your career ?
Are things still going badly with your houseguest ?
Getting worse . Now he ' s eating me out of house and home . I ' Ve tried talking to him but it all goes in one ear and out the other . He makes himself at home , which is fine . But what really gets me is that yesterday he walked into the living room in the raw and I had company over ! That was the last straw .
Leo , I really think you ' re beating around the bush with this guy . I know he used to be your best friend in college , but I really think it ' s time to lay down the law .
What ' s the matter , Sally ? You look so unhappy .
I had a bad day yesterday .
What happened ?
I went to the library and lost my bag .
Your bag ? Did you get it back ?
I went back for it . But it was already gone .
I'm coming to pick up my ticket . This is my reservation note .
Your reservation is right . Please get a ticket booking form from there and fill it .
Here you are . How much is the ticket ?
$ 800 .
Can I pay by card ?
Why are you leaving your present job ?
I ' m not so satisfied with it .
Why do you plan to change your job ?
I'm now a secretary in my present work unit . My work is not interesting . I have to type , make copies , book tickets and so on . Everyday I follow the routine . Furthermore , I have studied English for four years at university , but I can ' t use it there . They are the reasons I plan to change my job .
Why are you interested in working with this company ?
I ' m afraid we are really short staffed this week , Mr . Cranial . I ' d like to accommodate you , but I just don ' t think I ' ll have the time .
Are you telling me you ' re not going to meet with me ?
Not at all , sir . I ' d just like to push it up to next week . I ' ll have a lot more free time at the beginning of next week .
From reviewing your resume I can see that you have ample experience for this position . What I want to know is why you think you ' re right for the job .
Well I ' m impressed with what the company has done in the past and I think by hiring me the company ' s future can only be brighter . I find that my personal goals and ideas about business operation
So you ' Ve acquainted yourself with the company . It ' s refreshing to interview someone who ' s sure of what they want .
Yes , I believe that it ' s crucial for me to know if a company is right for me , not just if I ' m right for the company . I ' Ve only been impressed by what I ' Ve read and heard and I see myself having
Commitment to the company and the team is very important to us here .
Hi Jane , you look great .
You too . Have you lost some weight ?
Yes , I took off 4 kilos . I am glad you notice it .
Not some crazy diet fat I hope .
No no , I just changed my eating habits . I eat a balance meal . and I eat less than before .
What a brilliant smile !
That's my cousin Hubert . He likes smiling .
He must be very easy-going .
A report says running red lights causes one thousand traffic accidents every year .
It ' s horrible . Why do drivers run a red light then ?
Maybe they know they shouldn ' t run a red light , but when they are driving they don ' t pay enough attention to traffic lights .
Talking on the cell phone while driving is very dangerous too . It increases the chance of accidents .
Hello . This is Lucy from ABC Company . Is this Monica ?
Yes .
I am calling to inform you that you have passed the first two rounds of interview . Could you please come for the final round ? It is scheduled on the morning of next Monday 10AM in the HR manager office .
Thank you for calling me . I will be there on time .
Ok , see you then , bye .
Look at this survey conducted by a website . A quarter of the employees will spend an average of 10 minutes everyday online doing personal things . Hi , Francis , what about you ?
Well , I just spend 15 minutes as so checking my stock bonds and booking an air ticket for my mother . Anyway , I have done all my work and it is about the time to leave .
Though our company doesn ' t have a return policy , limiting the personal use of internet , I don ' t think the boss will like us to do that .
Certainly , work always comes first .
But it is lucky for us . The company computers don ' t have software keeping tracks of websites we visit . I have shopped too often online these days .
Hi , Monica , I got big news .
You got a raise ?
Not really , just take a wild guess .
You got promoted ?
Well , it is not going to happen so soon , I guess .
You won a lottery ? Don ' t beat around the bush , just tell me , please .
Well , Yuri , tell me about it .
I'm sorry I can't bring better news , sir . The site is a disaster .
That's what I was afraid of .
It is not only the earthquake , sir . But the mudslides . Much of the north half of the site has been covered over by mud .
Mud ? But Ivan told me there were no mudslides in that district . I thought all the mudslides were down in Chichitango .
That's what we thought , sir . That's what the news reported . But there was one little mudslide in our district too . Right above our site .
Oh , that's terrible ! What bad luck ! I wish we had never come to this country . But , if it isn't the strikes and the revolutionaries , it's the earthquakes . Our operations here are finished !
I'm sorry , sir .
It's not your fault , Yuri . But tell me . When will Ivan be able to get out there ?
Well , it took me about nine hours to get back here by car . If Ivan leaves tonight , I think he should be there by tomorrow lunch .
Good . I want an estimate of damages as soon as possible .
But sir ...
Yes , Yuri ?
I wouldn't recommend sending Ivan now . Especially not at night . The roads aren't safe .
Has the earthquake damaged the bridges too ?
No , sir . The bridges are fine . But I've heard rumors that the revolutionaries are coming down from the mountains . There has been fighting , sir .
Are you serious ? Fighting ? But I didn't hear anything on the news .
You know the government controls the press here , sir . They don't want it reported .
Oh , this is terrible , Yuri . Terrible ! So we can't even assess the damages . How can we do business in this country ? Either we're buried under mud , or we're in danger of getting kidnapped . No , I can't believe this mess !
I'm sorry , sir .
Please lend me some money .
OK , do you want it urgently ?
Yeah , I really want it . I am on my uppers .
Right , here you are .
Hi , are you being helped ?
No , I'm not . I am interested in some scarves .
All our scarves are in this section . What do you think of this one here ? It's made of silk .
Hm , It looks nice , but I ' d like to have something warm for the winter .
Maybe you would like a heavy wool scarves . How about this one ?
I think that's what I want . How much is it ?
It's 75 dollars plus tax .
It's a little expensive . Do you think it's possible to get a discount ?
Since you like it so much , how about a 10 % discount ? That's the best I can offer .
That's good . Could you wrap it for me ?
Sure . Is there anything else I can get for you ?
Your teacher has left you not very much homework this weekend .
Yes .
I've got an idea . Let's make this game even more interesting .
How ? Do you want to play strip-trivia or something ?
Well , if you want to ! Seriously , though , let's make a bet .
Why don't we just make it a friendly game ?
Hello . Green Trading Company . What can I do for you ?
I'm Mr . Stephen ' s secretary . He has an appointment with Mr . Green today .
Yes . It'll be at three o'clock this afternoon .
I'm afraid we have to reschedule it .
Didn't we make that appointment a long time ago ?
I'm very sorry . But Mr . stephen must leave for Hong Kong right away .
How about Friday afternoon ?
I want to get a bite to eat .
What are you thinking of getting ?
I have no idea what I want .
You can get a burger , or some Chinese food . Or maybe you can get some Mexican food .
I wouldn't mind getting some Chinese food .
Where are you going to get your Chinese food from ?
I'm not sure .
When I want Chinese food , I go to Panda Express .
Do they do a good job on the food ?
The food isn't bad there .

Speaking .
Oh , hi Justin . This is Karen Hepburn . We met at Chris and Jim's party .
Of course . How're you ?
Great . Uh , Justin , would you like to see Otis Lesley on Thursday night ? He's at the Kangaroo Club .
I'm sorry , Karen , but I can't . I have to work late this Thursday .
Oh ... that's too bad .
Yeah . I really like Lesley .
Actually , are you doing anything on Friday or Saturday ? He's playing those two nights as well .
Well , I can't make it on Friday either , but I'm free on Saturday night . What time does it start ?
At eight sharp . How about meeting in front of the club at about a quarter after seven ?
That sounds perfect . And let's go out for coffee after the show .
Sure !
Hey , Mark , long time no see .
Julie ! It's good to see you again . How have you been ?
Great . I just got back from a week's vacation in Thailand .
Really ? How was it ?
Fantastic ! I didn't want to come back .
I hear the beaches in Thailand are beautiful .
They are . And not only that the people are friendly , but also the food is delicious , not to mention cheap .
I do like Thai food . Did you see much of Bangkok ?
Not much . I've go enough city life in Beijing .
I know what you mean . I could use a vacation myself .
Hey , wouldn't it be great if we could go to Thailand together sometime ?
Ben , what are you doing ?
Well , I would say that I ' m just drifting - - here , in the pool .
Why ?
Well , it ' s very comfortable just to drift here .
Have you thought about graduate school ?
No .
Would you mind telling me then -- what were those four years of college for ? What was the point of all that hard work ?

Sure .
How would you seat them ?
I have prepared name cards to be put on the conference table for everyone to sit by . What time would you like to provide the refreshment ?

My stay is over . Here's the key to my room .
Thank you . And here's your receipt , sir .
Many thanks .
I hope your stay here was satisfactory , sir .
This could be a great hotel , once you get rid of the insects . The city itself is great .
Delicious ! Did you make this chocolate cake yourself , Fred ?
Yes . I did .
I think Bill Clinton is a good president .
But he has the sex scandal .
Well . Maybe he isn't a good husband , but he is a successful president .
I agree . He is also an excellent speaker .
Yes , he is . Of course he makes mistakes , but who doesn ' t .
Hey John , nice skates . Are they new ?
Yeah , I just got them . I started playing ice hockey in a community league . So , I finally got myself new skates .
What position do you play ?
I ' m a defender . It ' s a lot of fun . You don ' t have to be able to skate as fast on defense .
Yeah , you ' re a pretty big guy . I play goalie , myself .
Oh , yeah ? Which team ?
The Rockets .
Really ? I think we play you guys next week . Well , I have to go to practice . See you later .

Sorry , what do you mean ?
Thank you , 175 yuan .
Here you go .
Here is your change and your receipt . Do you have goods unpaid on you , sir
No , I don't think so .
I'm sorry I need to call the security to have a look .
There must be a mistake .
Sorry , sir , it's my job to make sure the goods are paid .
Wait , can you check these sunglasses I bought it in the second floor . I think they forgot to demagnetize it .
Sure . Ah ... That's the problem . Have you paid for it
Of course I did . Here is the receipt .
Let me see ... Oh , I am awfully sorry sir .
The Blacks got divorced .
Really ? Why ?
Mr . Black has been getting a little on the side .
Really ? I am surprised . He doesn't look like a guy who'd ever cheat on his wife , does he ?
No , he doesn't . Anyway , his wife found out that he has been two-timing for a long time .
Well , I am really surprised . By the way , have you done anything behind my back ?
No . The only thing I've ever done behind your back is zipping you up .
How is grandpa doing recently ?
Not good . The doctor told him not to smoke again , but it just rolls off him like water off the duck ' s back !
Maybe I would talk with him someday .
Can I take your order now or do you still want to look at the menu ?
Well , I want a fillet steak , medium , but my little girl doesn't care for steak . Could she have something else instead ?
Certainly . How about spaghetti with clams and shrimps .

For all of you , we hired Monica because she is a very professional accountant and we are very happy to have her in the finance department . She has lots of working experiences as an accountant and I am sure everybody in the department can benefit from this .
Hello , what can I do for you ?

Well , at least half a year . Do I have to do my own grocery shopping ?

Yes . I had a bad traffic accident . Look , my car looks like a squashed coke can .

I don't remember .
What was your speed then ?
40 miles per hour .

Hello , Oriental Hotel .
I ' d like to speak to marked Baker , please .
I ' m sorry , Mr . Baker ' s not in . May I take your message ?
Yes , tell him Mr . Cook called and ask him to return my called as soon as he back .
I'm going to the pub tonight .
Good evening , sir . What's your pleasure ?
Give me a shot of whisky and soda .
With or without ice , sir ?
Certainly without ice . Ice will spoil the taste .
Would you like to say ' when ' , please , sir . ( Pouring soda )
Whoa , when .
Excuse me . I have booked one ticket on BN118 for tomorrow . But now I've changed my plan . Can you help me refund the ticket ?
Sure .
Here is the ticket .
Ladies and gentlemen , welcome to tonight's fashion show .
We see you are all dressed to the nines .
How very appropriate , because tonight we have a most dazzling show for you !
Yes , this runway is going to sparkle with glamour and style !
Some of tonight's highlights are dressed in the latest straight from Shanghai .
And others directly from New York .
So , sit back and relax and get your order forms ready .
Professor , could I make an appointment with you ?
I am free tomorrow afternoon between two and four ; do you have a particular time in mind ?
Two o'clock would be the best time .
Fine , do you know where my office is ?
No , I'm not sure .
Remember , it is in the E building on the third floor .
I see .
Don't worry , it will work out fine once you get there . I'll see you then .
I'll see you then .
What are the requirements to apply for the position ?
Your major must be computer .
Do you think my educational background suits this position ?
Yes , I ' m quite satisfied with your qualifications .
Does this job require that new employees take any kind of training course ?
Generally speaking , training new members is usually necessary . We offer our new employees a one-week training course .
Could you tell something about the job ?
Yes , of course . You will be responsible for the designing and developing new products and also be in charge of the evaluation of the software programs including complex software systems to ensure product features and operation complaints .
What kind of insurance could the company provide for its employees ?
All staff can enjoy the health insurance program .

What is the movie you saw last night ?
It is a new film , ' Transformer ' .
How do you like it ?
I expected too high from that movie , but I was a bit disappointed about it .
But I heard the box office rose up to 15 million in the first week .
Box office can't explain everything . I do not think it is cheerful or well-made . The plot is old and the female character is not pretty .
My sister has given me two tickets for tonight . It is called ' The life of Rose ' , a French movie .
What's it about ?
It tells the lifetime of a lady singer from a beggar in the street to a famous singer in the world . It is a kind of tragedy .
I prefer the tragedy . It is moving and makes me ponder about my life .
Let's go . The time is coming .
Watch out ! You're too close to the fire place .
Don't worry , but my clothes are made of leathers .
Really ? That's wonderful !
Thank you for your warning .
Not at all .
Good afternoon , miss , can I help you ?
Yes , I ' d like to buy this dress , please .
It ' s certainly a pretty dress . I can ring you up at the register over here .
Great .
Will you be paying by cash , check , or credit card ?
I want to use a credit card . Do you take Discover ?
Sorry , no . We only take MasterCard or Visa .
I ' ll put it on my Visa card , then .
Very well , ma ' am . Oh , there seems to be a problem , it says it ' s rejected .
There must be something wrong with the system . Try my MasterCard .
Alright . Thank you . Yes , it seems to be working fine . Your total is $ 199 . 00 , sign here , please .
Sure .
Here you go , and here ' s your receipt . Have a nice day .
Are you doing the football pools , Brian ?
Yes , I ' Ve nearly finished , June . I ' m sure we will win something this week .
You always say that , but we never win anything ! What will you do if you win a lot of money ?
If I win a lot of money , I shall buy you a mink coat .
I don ' t want a mink coat ! I want to see the world .
All right . If we win a lot of money , we shall travel around the world and we shall stay at the best hotels . Then we will return home and buy a big house in the country . We will have a beautiful
But if we spend all that money we shall be poor again . What will we do then ?
If we spend all the money , we will try and win the football pools again .
You seem depressed these days . What's the matter ?
I went bankrupt and I'm flat broke now .
If I can do anything for you , don't hesitate to let me know .
Are you going to helen ' s birthday party on Friday evening ?
I wouldn ' t miss it for the world ! It ' s sure to be fun . She ' s invited a lot of people . Do you think everyone will be able to get into her house ?
If everyone turned up , it would be a squeeze . But a few people said that they couldn ' t go . So I think it should be OK ?
Are you taking anything ?
I ' Ve got her a birthday present and I ' ll take a bottle fo wine too .
That ' s a good idea . She told me that she had bought plenty of food and snacks . I think it ' s going to be a noisy party . I hope her neighbors don ' t mind too much .
Helen gets on very well with her neighbors . I wouldn ' t be surprised if they went to the party too .
I ' m really looking forward to it . This party is going to be a blast !
We have received your resume in answer to our ads . I would like to talk with you regarding your qualification for this position , OK ?
It is my honor to have this chance for this interview . Well , my major is commercial English . You know , and I am not only familiar with useful English expressions in business , but also learn some theories on this field . Besides , during my college learning period , I also attended some commercial activities to strive for the opportunity of practicing what I learned .
What is your greatest weakness ?
Well , I was a diligent student when I stayed in my college . I dislike meeting the deadline , when I am working on a project . I am always willing to complete it well ahead of the schedule .
What is the greatest disappointment in your life ?
Well , I lost my grandpa when I was only ten . I often recall the period when he fed me .
Well done ! Another question ! When will you start work , if you are hired ?
Could you tell me the right time , please ?
Well , my watch says five past two , but it's no use relying on it , because it has been gaining and losing these last few days .
You'll have to get it fixed .
Ok , I ' Ve got an up-to-day map . Let ' s check the route from here to the airport .
Where are we ? Oh , here we are . So we drive to the A120 and turn left .
No , we turn right . Remember that we are coming from this direction .
Oh yes ! Sorry ! Then we drive to the M11 motorway .
How far is that ?
It ' s only seven miles . We turn left to join the motorway and drive south .
According to the map , we get off the M11 at the second junction and join the M25 . That ' s the motorway that goes around the edge of London .
That ' s another 15 miles , so that ' s 22 miles total so far .
Then we drive west on the M25 . we must be careful to turn in the right direction !
Then we drive on the M25 . it turns south . When we reach exit 15 , we turn left and go west along the M4 .
Then we take the first Heathrow Airport . What ' s the total distance ?
The journey around the M25 is 33 miles and then 3 extra miles to get to the airport . So how many miles is that together ?
22 miles to the M25 , 33 miles on the M25 , and 3 after that . That ' s a total of 58 miles , isn ' t it ?
It shouldn ' t take us very long to cover that distance . Remember that we can go quite fast on the motor way .
Do you need any help ?
En , I am looking for the shop . Can you tell me where it is ?
Walk along the way and then turn left , It's right there .
Thank you . Do I have to pay duty if I want to buy something ?
No , you don't have to . It's a duty-free shop .
Have you heard about Michael's new home ? It's in one of the poshest areas in this area .
Is he living in the new housing estate in Killington ?
No , he's living in an old house in Warton .
Do you mean the one near the health centre on Old Slate Road ?
That's the one .
His house must be worth millions ! That is one of the most beautiful areas in Oxford . The surrounding area is really peaceful , and getting into the city centre from there is very convenient . How can he afford that place ?
He didn't buy it . His grandfather died recently and left him loads of money .
Did he know that his grandfather was so wealthy ?
No one in the family expected to get a dime from him . It was quite a surprise .
What a lucky man .
He still has a complaint though .
What's that ?
He wanted to live right on a bus line , but he doesn't . so , if he wants to take a bus anywhere , he has to walk 1/4 mile to get to a bus stop .
The poor thing . It must be difficult being him .
hey , Maris , are you a part-timer ?
part-timer ? Is that a new buzzword ?
oh , it ' s pretty popular among my classmates these days . So are you ?
sure , I have a part-time job as a bartender .
cool ! It must be amazing to work at a bar !
yeah , but I ' m not there for fun . I have to remain professional and if I get distracted , the manager would be pretty upset .
that ' s true . I ' m wondering did you learn anything from the job ?
of course . There ' s always much to learn . I got to know more about the real world .
you mean you got working experience , right ?
not just working experience . I would say the biggest lesson I learned is how to deal with people from all walks of life .
it must be very demanding .
sometimes it is . But after working for a few weeks , it ' s easy to figure out .
really ? It sounds interesting .
maybe you can come to the bar one day and I ' ll show you around .
I need to know why I'm being charged $ 10 for a movie that I never ordered .
Hmm . Your file shows that you watched ' Titanic ' Monday night .
Monday night ? Monday night I was at a great concert .
Well , as they say , garbage in , garbage out . Let me correct this error , please .
Thank you . It's very nice when problems can be solved quickly .
When I deleted the $ 10 , the computer automatically added a $ 2 service charge .
Are you crazy ? You made the mistake and now you're charging me for your mistake ?
Sir , if it makes you feel any better , the $ 2 service fee used to be $ 5 .
Why don't you just stick a gun in my ribs and take everything I have ?
I have never bought a house before and don ' t know how to make an offer .
The process of actually making the offer is something that I will take care of for you . What price were you considering offering ?
I love this house and would be willing to pay the full asking price of three hundred and fifty thousand dollars .
Let ' s leave some room on this offer . I think that three hundred and twenty thousand dollars is a fair offer in this housing market .
We could try that , but I really want this house !
It is common practice to offer and then have a counter-offer .
How long will it take to find out if they are going to accept the offer ?
The sellers are usually fairly quick to respond . They want to get things moving .
Should I tell my bank that I have made an offer ?
You seemed to be fed up with Mary .
Yeah . I get sick of her . She always bends my ear about what she thinks .
She is a barking dog . But she means well .
But I don ' t like anyone who would drive me crazy by telling me what to do .
Hello , Tony . Fancy meeting you here . How are things going with you ?
Not too bad , thanks . And you ?
Pretty good ! How are your parents these days ?
Oh , they are fine . They are enjoying their retirement .
Oh , good . That's nice to hear . Well , I am going to a football match . I need to go .
Say hi to your family for me .
Hello , Is this EYE computers ?
Yeas , It is . Sewen Jes speaking . How can I help ?
Actually , I'm calling to complain about your service . The computer I bought last week is faulty .
Oh , I'm sorry to hear that , sir . What exactly is problem ?
Well , easily , It doesn't work . It doesn't even start probably .
Do you want a cigarette ?
No , thank you . I've given up , you know .
You don't mind if I have one .
Well , all tight . But you know , smoking does do harm to your health .
Yes , you are right .
Why don't you try and give it up ?
Hi , Mark ! Long time no see !
Hi , Alex !
Where have you been ?
I just got back from London .
How was your flight ?
It was OK . There was a lot of turbulence , though .
That ' s too bad . How long was the flight ?
It was 10 hours .
Did you have a layover ?
Yes , in Paris , France .
Did you buy anything in the duty-free stores ?
Yes . I bought two boxed of chocolate -- one for me and one for you !
Oh , you didn ' t have to ...
Titanic made a hit ! It was so touching .
But I see things rather differently . The heroin is not attractive and her acting is just so-so .
Good morning , everyone . We will get to destination in only one hour .
Oh , yes .
I hope that you had good journey .
Yes . Thank you .
Make sure that your customs forms are with you .
And ?
Before disembarkation , please get ready .
All right .
By the way , don't forget your luggage on the ship .
Thank you for your reminding .
You will see the beautiful city .
Is it all right for me to come in now . Mr . Sutcliffe ?
Well ... I'm pretty busy . but ... all right . come in . What can I do for you ?
Do you mind if I sit down ?
Not at all . Take a seat . Now , what can I do for you ?
I want to leave the department . Do you think I could put in for a transfer ?
Yes , but why should you want to do that ?
Do you mind if I speak frankly ?
Not at all . Go ahead .
Well , you see . I don't like the office . I don't like the staff and I'm afraid you and I don't get on . So may I put in for a transfer ?
Susan , we ' re going to need those data before tomorrow .
I know . I ' m just waiting for confirmation on one of them . I can get them to you by tomorrow morning .
Yeah ? All right . Thanks , Susan .
How may I help you ?
There ' s a problem with my check .
What problem ?
My check for $ 100 bounced .
Are you sure you have $ 100 in your checking account ?
I thought I did .
I ' ll check for you .
Thank you very much .
It looks like you only have $ 57 left in your account .
That can ' t be right !
That ' s what my computer is showing .
May I help you ?
Yes , I ' Ve come in apply for the position as head of claim department .
I ' m Smith , the manager of Human Resources Department . May I ask your name ?
My name is Zhang Due .
Would you tell me what education background you have ?
I graduated from Beijing College of Foreign Trade . My major was International Trade .
Do you have any experience in this field ?
Yes , I have been working in Lush Insurance Company for four years .
OK . Do you think you are proficient in both written and spoken English ?
Yes .
OK . I will accept you for a three months-period of probation . Is this satisfactory ?
Alison , would you like to have some more ?
No thanks . I've had enough .
Actually you haven't had much .
To tell you the truth , I am on the diet .
That sounds ridiculous . Why ?
What is the correct time , please ?
It's exactly twelve minutes past seven .
When will the lecture begin ?
See ? That wasn't so bad .
Easy for you to say . My bottom still stings .
It might be sore for a while . You'll be OK . Now let's go home and rest .
Can't we go to McDonald's first ?
No , sweetie . I'll make you some tomato soup and rice .
No , thanks .
And vegetables with porridge .
Blah ... What's that ?
What was the movie you saw last night ?
It was a foreign film called ' Gone with the wind ' .
Really ? I've seen that movie , too .
How did you like the movie ?
I thought it was pretty good .
I can't say I agree .
You're kidding . The storyline and acting were outstanding .
I guess I expected too much from the movie , so I was a bit disappointed .
Hello , I would like to make an appointment to look at houses .
Sure , would you prefer looking in the morning or afternoon ?
I would prefer mornings .
Can you go during the week , or can you only go during the weekend ?
Going to look at houses during the week is best for me .
Where would you like me to pick you up ?
I will meet you at the real estate office .
I am thinking of looking at three houses , and it will take about two hours .
That sounds good to me .
Is there anything I can do for you ?
Yes . I have my wallet stolen .
When did you lose it ?
I don't know the exact time . Maybe I lost it last night when I was traveling on the bus .
Can you make a description of your wallet ?
Good morning . This is Dr . Mustn ' s Office . Can I help you ?
Yes . This is Janet Smith . I ' d like to make an appointment with Dr . Mustn as soon as possible .
Is it urgent ( an emergency ) ?
Yes . I ' Ve got an infected wound .
How about this afternoon at 2:00 ?
That ' s fine .
Don ' t forget to bring your health card with you .
I ' ll bring the card . Thank you very much .
I think this painting would look good in our living room . What do you think ?
Well , Mr . Cui , could you tell me why you are interested in working with this company ?
I think working in this company could give me the best chance to use what I have learnt . As you know , I majored in computer programming in the university . I've cherished a desire to get a job where I can apply my knowledge . I know your company is one of the largest computer companies in the world , and I wish to have opportunity to develop my capabilities here . That ' s why I applied .
I see . But have you ever done any work in this field ?
Yes , since 1993 , I ' Ve been employed as a clerk in the Beijing Branch of the DHAK Trading Corporation .
Why do you plan to change your job ?
Because I would like to get a job in which I can have good opportunity for advancement , and the job was not challenging enough .
Have you applied for work with any other companies ?
Yes , I applied with another company , but that was just to get experience in being interviewed .
If you are accepted at both places , which company will you choose ?
Mr . Lin , what are you interested in ?
I enjoy camping .
Really ? I'm not much of an outdoor person . What do you like about it ?
I love the fresh air , the scenery the exercise , and the time to think .
Do you hike or fish on your trips ?
Yes , both . Last trip I fished a little and hiked five miles .
Did you catch anything ?
Yes , but I threw them back .
How about Joining our summer camp next week ?
Hello ?
Good morning , Nathaniel . This is Leah calling from the International Student Office .
Good morning .
The reason I'm calling is because Ms . Collins will not be able to call you back until next week .
Oh . I had hoped she would have called me back yesterday .
She's terribly sorry about that . She had to leave the office suddenly and won't be able to return until next week . She hopes you understand .
Is there someone else I can talk to ?
She asked me to call you to book an appointment with someone else today . When are you free today ?
Any time after 2 pm today would be good for me .
Mr . Liu is available at 2:15 today . Will that work for you ?
I'd prefer to speak with Ms . Fonda .
I'm afraid she isn't available this afternoon . She has an opening at 11:30 this morning . Will that work for you ?
That will be fine .
I need to pay the fine on my ticket .
Do you have the ticket with you ?
Yes , I have my ticket with me .
Let me see your ID .
I forgot to bring that with me .
You need it to pay your fine .
Why can't I just give you the money for the fine ?
Because , I need to see a photo ID in order to verify who you are .
Okay , I think I understand .
All right , come back and bring your ID .
So once I pay this off , my record will be cleared ?
You look tired .
Yeah , I've been working so much overtime lately .
Really ? How come ?
My boss gave me a big project . I had to have it finished by this morning . It was so difficult .
You shouldn't work so hard .
I know , but hard work pays off . You know .
What do you mean ?
Excuse me . I'm looking for an old music box .
Any particular decade ?
Something made in the ' 20s would be nice .
We had seven , but we sold one this morning .
Are dancing figures a part of any of the boxes ?
You're in luck . Two of them have dancing figures .
Oh , these are great . I think I'll take this one .
Yes , that one is very nice .
Now , does this come with a warranty ?
I'm sorry , but you just have to take your chances .
That doesn't surprise me .
Excuse me , when is the next train to Los Angeles ?
10:15 a . m .
Can I get the ticket here ?
Sorry . You have to buy your ticket at the next counter .
I think this one will do .
I'm sorry . I don't think so .
Why ? What's wrong with it ?
I am afraid I have some bad news for you . It's about our order contract O5TSWAL .
What's the problem ?
The goods arrived half a month later than scheduled . What's more , five cases were found broken and unit inside seriously damaged .
Really ? That's something unexpected . You see , all our exports were strictly inspected before shipment . The goods were in perfect condition when they left .
But then there were some cracks in a number of cases . Almost all the bottom of the cases were loose .
That could have happened in the course of transit or unloading , due to rough handling .
But our surveyors found the damage was caused by poor packing .
But there is nothing wrong with our packing . Our cartons are standard export ones and we also enforced them with straps .
But you filled the cartons too full and the straps are not strong enough . When they were rehandled , some of them were broken .
Even with volume sales our costs for the Exec User won't go down much .
Just what are you proposing ?
We could take a cut on the price . But 25 % would reduce much our profit margin . We suggest a compromise 10 % .
That's a big change from 25 % ! 10 % is beyond my negotiating limit . Any other ideas ?
I don't think I can change it right now . Why don't we talk again tomorrow ?
Sure . I have to talk to my office anyway . I hope we can find some common ground on this .
Robert , I have been instructed to reject the numbers you proposed , but we can try to come up with something else .
I hope so , Dana . My instructions are to negotiate hard on this deal , but I'm trying very hard to reach some middle ground .
I understand . We propose a structured deal . For the first six months , we get a discount of 20 % and the next six months we get 15 % .
Dana . I can't bring those numbers back to my office , they'll turn it down flat .
I ' d better be going .
So soon . Why don ' t you stay a little longer ?
I wish I could , but It ' s already late .
Oh . It ' s pity you have to leave .
thank you for wonderful meat .
How many people are there in your family ?
My immediate family is quite small . It ' s just my older step-brother , my mom , my step-dad and me . how about you ?
I have a large family . I have three older sisters , my twin sister , a younger brother , and parents .
I didn ' t know you were a twin ! Are you identical or fraternal ?
We ' re identical . I mean , we look exactly the same , but we are complete opposites when it comes to everything else .
Interesting . It must be great having a twin sister . Are you best friends , too ?
We used to be really close , but that all changed once she moved to Shanghai . How about your family ? You didn ' t mention to your biological father .
I don ' t know much about him . He died when I was just a baby . Even though I don ' t have a blood relationship with my step-father and step-brother , I consider them to be my real family .
What about your step-brother ' s mother ? Does he keep in touch with her ?
No , she also died when my step-brother was little . My mother and my step-father met each other shortly after my father died and became good friends . They ended up getting married a few years later .
Do you enjoy going on dates ?
Yes . I find dates to be a lot of fun .
What's so fun about them ?
They give me the opportunity to get to know someone better .
So you always have fun on dates ?
Not always . I don't always like the person I'm on the date with .
Why not ?
My date may not be my type .
So then why would you ask them out in the first place ?
I didn't realize until after our date that they weren't my type .
Sounds like a huge waste of time to me .
Hey , you wanna see a movie tomorrow ?
Sounds like a good plan . What do you want to see ?
How about Legally Blonde .
Ah , my girlfriend wanted to see that movie . I have to take her later so I don't want to watch it ahead of time . How about The Cube ?
Isn't that a scary movie ?
How scary can it be ? Come on , it'll be fun .
Ok . I'll give it a try .
That's the spirit . I'll see you tomorrow after class .
Hello , this is Lucy from ABC Company . Is this Monica ?
Yes , it is .
I am calling to inform you that we have arranged an interview for this accountant position at 2 PM this Thursday afternoon . Please come on time .
Ok , thank you . By the way , could you please tell me how I can get there from A community ?
Oh , you can take the subway , get off at B stop and walk north for several minutes . You will find a building . It will take about 40 minutes in total .
I got it . Thank you so much .
Good afternoon , ma'am . Can I help you find anything ?
No , thanks . I'm just looking .
We have a special on these skirts this week . Would you like to try one on ?
No , thank you . I don't need any skirts .
How about a blouse ? This one here is the latest fashion .
No , thank you .
Why not try on this lovely pair of shorts ? I'm sure they'd look fabulous on you .
No doubt . Look , I'm just browsing . If I need your help , I'll let you know .
... Now , that's all I want to say about world coal reserves . So let's move on to the next topic , renewable resources . There are three things we have to consider when talking about renewable resources . First , sustainability ; second , marketability ; lastly , the reality factor . Let's talk about each point in more detail ... John , would you like to take it from here ?
How much do you pay wholesale for your products ?
We have a few different wholesale vendors , so our cost varies a bit over the fiscal year . But the difference is miniscule , a fluctuation of about 0 . 2 % .
That must impact your bottom line at least a little bit , doesn't it ? After all , your sticker price is pretty much set in stone . How much do they go for retail ?
Retail price is 29 . 95 per unit . We take into consideration changes in supply cost when figuring this price .
Is that including tax ?
No , that's the price before tax . The tax rate is varies from different marketing areas , so it is difficult for us to figure in .
How much is your profit margin then ?
This is going to surprise you , but I'm happy . I think you're making the right move .
You do ?
Look , maybe I shouldn't tell you this , but I'v going over to WebTracker , too .
No way ! That's great ! Then we'll still be together !
Actually , I'm already working for WebTracker . Vince never wanted to give me what I was worth , so I figured , what the heck .
No kidding ! I can't believe this . You devil !
Is your website address ' www . zhilian . com . CN ' ?
Not exactly . Our address is ' www . zhilian-zhaopin . com . CN ' .
I am sorry , could you repeat it please ?
Good evening , sir . Are you Mr Jim Stewart from the States ?
Ah , yes , that's right .
Glad to meet you , Mr Stewart . I'm the guide from Pacific Tour Agency . My name is Zhang Hua .
Hello , I was just looking for the guide .
I'm always at your service , sir . By the way , did you have a pleasant trip ?
Not bad . But I've made too many flights these days . I could hardly remember how many take-offs and landings I've been through these three days . I think we all feel a bit tired .
Well , shall we go to the hotel right now ? I've already made a reservation for you .
Wonderful . I'm eager to take a sauna as soon as possible .
So we must get you to the hotel as soon as possible . I hope to see you refreshed and revitalized tomorrow morning , as we are going to visit the Great Wall .
I am sure we will . Actually , we are looking forward to seeing the great wonder .
Come this way , please . The coach is waiting outside .
How may I help you ?
I would like to return this book .
Is that all you need ?
I also want to check out this video .
Is that all you would like to check out ?
That ' s all I need .
Do you have your library card ?
Here it is .
Make sure to take proper care of this video .
That won ' t be a problem .
If you damage the video , you will be fined .
Congratulations ! You've just won a car !
Did you see the news today ?
I haven't had a chance to see it .
You know about the blackout last night , right ?
The lights were out everywhere .
A bunch of people went looting last night .
They what ?
They took full advantage of the lights being out .
That's crazy .
The news reported that four stores were broken into .
Were the looters found ?
The police don't know who did it .
Please tell me how to file things according to the concerned rules .
Well , all right . There are four points you should keep in mind when you file documents , information and other things .
What are they ?
They are , keep the documents in chronological order , remove all the chips and pins , punch the documents evenly and place them in the folder .
And what is the most important point ?
Veronica ! Veronica ! Veronica ! Are you OK ?
Steven ! What ' s going on ! Who were those guys ? I didn ' t know you have a gun ! What ' s going on !
I will come clean as soon as we get to safety , OK ? For now , you have to trust me , please ! I would never do anything to hurt you .
Steven , I ...
I haven ' t been completely honest with you Veronica , I ' m sorry . I ' m not a fireman . I ' m not even from the United States . I ' m a spy for the Indian government .
What ? Why didn ' t you tell me before ? What are you doing here ?
When I was a young boy , I used to play cricket my father back in my hometown of Hyderabad . It was a peaceful town , and my father was a renowned chemist . One day , he was approached by members of the CIA , claiming that my father had made the discovery of the millennium in his small lab back at the university where he taught bio-chemistry . I never saw him again . I vowed to discover the whereabouts of my father and consequently joined the Indian Intelligence Bureau .
What does that have to do with those men shooting at us ? Most importantly , why did you lie to me !
I ' m sorry , I wasn ' t supposed to meet you . I wasn ' t supposed to fall in love with you , but you have to believe me when I tell you that what I feel for you is real .
I can ' t believe this ! Why are all these things happening to me ! I can ' t take it anymore ! Let me out of the car !
Good evening , Yanking Restaurant .
Could I reserve a table for Saturday , September 16th at 8: 00 p . m . ?
Certainly , sir . For how many people , please ?
For two people . We would like a quiet table , please .
Of course . May I have your name , please ?
This is Mr . William .
Can you spell that , please ?
William . W-I-L-L-I-A-M .
Hi , my name is Tom .
Tom , the new sales representative ? Nice to meet you ! I'm Melinda .
Nice to meet you too . Melinda .
Now let me show you around . This is our reception area , and our conference room is right over there . Over there is the sales department .
Really ? This is a nice office , but it's quite small .
Yeah ... You can make photocopies and send faxes over there .
It looks like you guys work hard .
I tell you what just between you and me , we just mess things up so that it looks like we work hard . Just kidding . Oh , your cubicle is over the . And this way . Those are all private offices--the managers ' offices .
Hmm ... Tell me more details about our jobs .
Do you like traveling , Kathy ?
I like traveling for pleasure to get places for vacation for instance . But I don ' t like traveling to work , waiting for buses , or ...
Or getting stuck in traffic jams when you ' re driving .
Your husband is very helpful , isn't he ?
Willing to help , maybe , but not as helpful as you think .
Really ?
A friend of mine is now in the big house . He was caught red-handed for selling cocaine .
That is a deadly risky business . He should have it coming on him .
He must be regretting about having done the business .
Excuse me , How do I get to the Grand hotel ?
I am sorry , I didn ' t catch what you said . Could you repeat it please ?
The Grand hotel , is it far from here ?
Okay , let's begin . Hello , everyone . My name's Karl Roberts , and I'll be your teacher for this class , Intercultural Communication .
( quietly ) I don't understand what the teacher is saying .
Uh , to begin with , please take a look at the syllabus in front of you . As you all should know by now , this class meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:15 to 4:50 .
That's terrible . He speaks too fast . How can I catch his meaning ?
Again , as you see on your course outline , grading is determined by your performance on a midterm and a final test , periodic quizzes , and classroom participation .
Wake up , it's time for school .
I'm so tired . Let me sleep for five more minutes .
You have to get up and get ready for school .
I know , but just five more minutes .
I can't let you go back to sleep , because you won't wake back up .
I promise I'll wake up , in five minutes .
You still need to eat breakfast , take a shower , and get dressed .
I realize that , and I can do all that when I wake up in five minutes .
I don't want you to be late for school today .
I'm not going to be late today .
Fine , five more minutes .
I need help in ordering my office supplies .
You can print out a copy of the Order Supply Form from our company web site and turn in into me . What will you be needing ?
I need ink cartridges , staples , and Post-its .
Will you need all of them right away or can some wait ?
Some of these can wait but there are a few things that I need right away .
You can only buy supplies that you have a budget for . Do you know what your budget is ?
We have plenty of money for office supplies .
You can pick these supplies up or they can be delivered to your building . Which would you prefer ?
I want to pick them up .
Well , just finish the request and we will contact you when the supplies come in . Have a good day !
I've run out of steam . To be honest , I want to be in a different environment .
Is that so ?
Yes . I don't want to be stuck in a rut . I want to move on .
Have you decided ?
Yes , I want to get a better job .
Could you tell me why you want to quit ?
I'm quitting because of the lousy salary and all the difficulties I have in getting along with my colleagues .
Oh , that sounds terrible . Would you be happier with higher pay here ? I'm sure something can be worked out .
I'm afraid not . I've promised my girlfriend . We're going to travel south to find jobs that offer higher pay .
what are you watching on the telly ?
there's a great sitcom on Channel 3 that stars in about three minutes .
which one is that ?
the office . Have you watched it ?
I've seen the British version and loved it , but have never seen the American version .
it's almost exactly the same . I think it's a hilarious show .
what are you watching now ?
they're just showing highlights of American Idol from last night right now .
I can't stand American Idol ! I think it's really over-rated .
I couldn't agree with you more .
have you got satellite , cable , or digital TV ?
we have digital TV . It's amazing though---even with 100 channels , there's often nothing on that I'd want to watch !
do you watch a lot of TV then ?
I guess so . I'm bit of a couch potato . How about you ?
I don't have a TV at home , so I rarely watch anything . Is there anything worth watching after the office ?
there's actually a documentary on the history channel later on that I'd like to watch . Do you want to stay and watch it with me ?
What do you think is the role teacher should play in the classroom ?
Teachers are just directors who give scope to the students ' initiative and creativeness , instead of taking their rights away from speaking .
What did you do to put it into practice ?
Oh , hi , Lily . When did you get back from Canada ?
Just last week .
How was it ?
Oh , I loved it . I only visited a couple of cities , you know . But I had a great time .
Well , tell me . What are they like ?
Michael Johnson doesn ' t look graceful , but he sure is powerful .
If I were on as many steroids as he was , I think I ' d be powerful , too .
What are you talking about ? ! He ' s passed every drug test he ' s taken !
Those drug tests don ' t mean anything ! He probably took some other drugs to mask the steroids .
Just because Ben Johnson was juiced up doesn ' t mean all athletes are .
I'd like to rent a car for several days .
What kind of car do you want ?
Well , what kinds do you have ?
Mazda . Honda and Nissan .
It's raining outside , Catherine , it's too bad . What ' s the weather like in your hometown ?
It's very hot , the temperature is often over 40C .
Do you like the weather in Seattle ?
Not really . But I like it in spring and fall . I don't like it in winter .
Why ?
The winter is very rainy , I don't like the rainy day .
What about the weather in Boston ?
I lived there for three years . I like summer but I don't like winter .
Is it very cold in winter ?
May I help you ?
I bought the MP4 in your store a week before , but it doesn't work today .
Have you brought your receipt ?
Yes , here you are .
Can I try it on now ?
Of course . I will show you the fitting room .
The dress is slim in cut .
Hello . I'd like to change my reservation for March 19 . My name is Mary Chang .
Ah , yes , Miss Chang . What seems to be the problem ?
Well , I'd like to change the date to March 20 , and make that for two singles , not one .
Besides salary what kind of allowance can I expect ?
We have a kind of floating bonus on a yearly basis .
Can you elaborate it more concretely ?
Watch your step . There's a hole in the sidewalk .
Hi , Mary , I have decided to look for a job as a salesman .
Good ! Have you got the recruitment information on marketing ?
Yes . I have found some through different channels .
Really ? That's great ! Tell me .
OK . The first piece of job information I got was from the Internet , and it is about selling medicines .
What do you think of this job ?
I am not familiar with the medicine industry , and I don't think it fits me well .
Then how about the others ?
Another is about electronic commerce , and its products are mainly large machinery equipments .
I have heard about electronic commerce , and many people say it has good prospects for development .
I also feel it's nice . I want to give it a try .
Come on ! I believe you will succeed .
Thanks . You can also seek job information on the Internet .
Waiter , show me the menu , please .
Yes , here you are . Would you care to order now , Sir ?
I'll have the baked salmon .
Any vegetable ?
I'd rather have broccoli .
OK . Can I serve you anything else ?
Yes , I'd like another cup of coffee .
Hi , I'm back ! Hmm ... your hair is pretty damaged , and you've got split ends .
Really ? What can I do ?
Well , the trim should fix the split ends , but you might need a deep conditioning treatment .
Umm , OK . Whatever you think will help .
I'm also going to add some layers to frame your face .
Can you use the thinning shears on top , too ? My hair is really thick .
No problem !

What are you here for today ?
I need to fight this ticket that I got .
Is the arresting officer here ?
Yes , he is , Your Honor .
Plead your case .
I was told by the officer that I ran a red light . That information isn't true .
Why would the officer lie ?
I'm not sure , but the signal had a camera on it .
Did the camera take a picture of your license plate ?
No , my picture wasn't taken .
There was no picture taken , so I'll let you go .
Hello , my name's David Wong . I've ordered a sofa from you last Wednesday . I wonder when it will be delivered today .
Let me check ... what's your voucher number ?
It's 45132 .
How can I get to Lakeside Park ?
Take the No . 7 bus . There's a bus stop just over there .
Will it take me straight there ?
Good afternoon .
My goodness ! It ' s the afternoon ? Doesn ' t the time fly ! Do come in and sit down .
Thank you .
What ' s the time ? My watch has stopped .
It ' s half past twelve .
When do you have lunch ?
From one to two .
What do you normally eat ?
We usually go to the cafeteria .
Oh , it ' s time to have lunch now .
Bob is getting on in years .
Yeah , I'm very worried about his health .
He looks tired all the time .
Is the lake very polluted ?
Well , I wouldn't swim in it - but the water is much cleaner than it was a few years ago .
Are local factories allowed to discharge waste water into the lake ?
I'm going to try sky diving this weekend .
I wouldn't do it if I were you .
It's sounds like fun .
It's very dangerous , you know .
I want to try something exciting .
It's an easy way to get hurt , let me tell you .
I'll tell you all about it next Monday .
Thanks for offering to give me a lift . I ' m looking forward to this party , but I didn ' t want to go alone .
Don ' t mention it . It ' s my pleasure . Have you been to one of these large , sit-down dinner parties since you got to New Haven ?
No , this is my first . Last week I went to a cookout for new professors at Dean Barksdale ' s home . I took a taxi because I didn ' t want to be late . But I was the first one
Cookouts often start slowly . A two o ' clock start means you arrive any time after two .
Thanks for telling me this .
I was late getting back from the mall , but I ' m hurrying .
Why are you in such a hurry ? They said , Dinner at eight , and it ' s only seven-fifteen . I don ' t want to be the first one there again .
What are you and Corey doing for Valentine ' s Day this Friday ?
Probably nothing .
You have to do something romantic .
Romantic ? I can't remember what that word means .
Well , you have three kids , so you knew what it meant once upon a time !
Excuse me , Professor . I have to talk to you about why my homework didn't get done .
What happened that you didn't get it done ?
I had to watch a football game instead .
Well , you had more than one day ; couldn't you have fit it in on another day ?
Yes , I think so .
Either way , I only allow one missed assignment per semester . When will you be turning the make-up in ?
I'll make it up next week .
Fine , but it cannot happen again if you want an " A " in the class .
OK , I can do that .
Have you got a minute ?
Would you honor us with a visit ?
I'd love to . Thanks .
When will you be convenient ?
Any time will suit me .
Are you doing anything tomorrow ?
I'm free tomorrow .
I'll pick you up at about nine o'clock , will it do ?
Would you please put that cigarette out ? I get sick on it .
You do ? OK , fine with me .
Thank you SO much .
But I also want ya to do me a favor .
What ?
You gotta have some better deodorant .
Greetings should never be ignored in the interview .
Sure . It is helpful to shorten the distance between you and the interviewer and create a lively atmosphere .
Appropriate greetings will win the interviewer's favorable impression
But you should pay special attention to your words and attitudes .
In the beginning of the interview , greet the interviewer with a kind smile .
In the interview , use polite words , such as ' Thank you ' , or ' Please ' .
That's right . Details can mean succeed or fail .
When talking you should focus your eyes on the interviewer in order to closely watch his or her expressions .
At the end of the interview , you should make your acknowledgements and say Goode .
Whatever the result is , you should keep your good demeanor .
Only in this way can you leave a good impression on the interviewer .
Did you sign up for the picnic party ?
Yes , of course . I love the picnic party . It ' s really family fun time .
This time you can bring your daughter with you .
Right , she is so excited and simply can ' t wait .
Welcome to Bill ' s Fabric World . What can I do for you today ?
I was wondering if you guys also tailor clothes ?
Sure we do ! We have the best tailors in the country ! What is it that you need exactly ?
Well , I ' m looking to get a custom-made suit .
Excellent ! We have the finest cashmeres at affordable prices . How about we get you measured ? Let ' s start off by measuring the width of your shoulders . Now , let ' s measure the length of your arms and this bit around your neck here .
Can you make sure you leave a little extra space in the collar ? My neck gets easily irritated .
No problem ! Now for your pants , let me just measure your waist and the inseam .
You might also want to leave a little extra room in the waist area . I tend to gain a few pounds over the holidays .
Look , I've got a problem here . Will you help me ?
Shall I take a photo of you ?
Could you ? Thank you .
You ' re welcome . What brings you to China ?
I ' m actually here on business .
I see and what do you do for a living ?
I ' m an IT salesman .
That sounds like a good job .
It ' s very interesting actually .
Ok , well enjoy the rest of your stay here .
Hello there ! Come on in ! Don ' t just stand there ! Come and take a seat !
Um , okay . Well , I just want a trim . Nothing too fancy .
Oh my gosh ! Your hair is amazing ! So silky , so shiny ! I am going to work my magic on your hair ! You hear me ? You are going to look like a million bucks !
Okay . Um ... can you make sure my sideburns are even and you just take a little off the top .
Don ' t you worry , I ' ll take care of everything ! Oh my god ! I just love your curly hair ! It ' s so fluffy and cute ! You should totally let it grow out . An afro would look great on you !
Um ... no .
Good morning , Passport , please .
Here you are .
Ah , thank you . Please bring your luggage here for inspection .
Ok . But is there anything wrong ?
It's just a regular inspection . Do you have anything to declare ?
I've got 6 packets of cigarettes and 2 bottles of champagne . Besides , I have two cameras , one is for my own use , and the other is a gift .
Well , the cigarettes and the champagne are not in excess of the duty-free allowance . But according to our law , each passenger is allowed only one camera duty-free . You ' ll have to pay duty for the other one .
Ok . Where shall I pay duty for it ?
Please wait a minute . I'll make out the duty memo ... Here you are . Take this and pay to the woman over there .
I've paid for it . Here's the receipt .
Very well . I hope you ' ll enjoy your stay in America .
My dear , it's five flights up !
That's all right . We ' ll get used to it . Besides , it is quiet up there . We ' re little further away from the street and traffic noise and there's no one living over us .
Is the place well-furnished ?
Yes , it's pretty bright in there and big enough for our children to play .
What about the kitchen ?
The stove and refrigerator are in good working order , and I don't see any loose electric wiring that could cause fires .
Are the plumbing all right ?
The plumbing seems OK , too . The toilet flushes and the shower has hot and cold water , and the sinks don't seem to leak .
Great . My favorite-soup , soup , soup ...
Oh , and there's one more thing you have to do every hour on the hour , sweets .
Blow my nose ?
Well , you do that when your nose needs blowing . I was talking about a way to make your throat heal faster .
No , please , Mom ! Don't make me gargle with saltwater !
Here , Let me get the door for you .
Thanks .
Do you need a hand with that ?
Actually , I could you some help . Thank you so much .
I ' Ve just looked over your resume and I must admit I am quite impressed .
Thank you . I ' Ve worked pretty hard to be able to list those accomplishments .
You ' Ve got plenty of training and experience . I wonder if you could tell me something about your goals . Where do you see yourself ten years from now ?
To be honest , I don ' t plan in that much detail . My goals tend to be general ; I define success according to the job at hand . I see myself advancing as I succeed , but I don ' t necessarily dwell on
interesting ! And how do you feel about decision-making ? Are you an independent thinker , or do you depend more on your superior for direction ?
That depends a bit on the problem at hand . There are certain situations in which a manager can give a general directive , and expect his employees to know how to take the initiative on the detail
Sounds good . Everyone is taking about teams these days . Can you describe your role as a member of a sales team ?
I see myself as an encourager . Of course , sales can be quite competitive and sometimes people in this field have a secret desire for others to fail . In my last job , each representative handled
What do you think of smoking ?
It ' s harmful not only for yourself but for others .
What in your opinion can be done to stop smoking ?
Stop producing cigarettes .
But that ' ll affect the national economy .
That ' s right . But I don ' t think there are better ways .
How about printing a warning on each cigarette packet ?
Are you a goal-oriented person ?
Yes , I am . That's why I make plans before I do anything .
How do you plan to do your present job ?
Oh , God . It ' s late . I ' m afraid I have to leave .
But you just got here . Can ' t you stay a little longer and have some tea ?
That ' s very kind of you . But if I don ' t go now I ' ll miss the last bus .
That ' s too bad .
Thank you for your hospitality .
Thanks for coming .
How about next time we meet at my place ? And I ' ll treat you to Chinese food . I know how much you like it . We can order in and watch video too . Anything you like , I promise .
Great idea . I ' m looking forward to it . See you then .
Well . I really do have to go .
Good night then .
It's all over . I'm bankrupt .
Can I help you ?
Yes . I want to make a plane reservation to Shanghai , China .
May I have your name , please ?
Feynman Black . I want to leave on October 15th .
OK . Let me see . Air China has a flight on October 15th at 10:00 in the morning .
Well , I need an economy ticket .
Single or return ?
Single . How much ?
Economy fare for single ticket from New York to Beijing is 400 dollars .
OK . Here you are . Is my ticket confirmed then ?
Yes . Please arrive at the airport one hour before departure .
Which team won ?
The Spur .
What was the score ?
What is included in a job advertisement ?
Generally speaking , there are the company , the job title , job description , requirement , and so on .
What are the accesses of the job ads ?
How time flies !
Bill and Betty have already grown up .
I can still remember our first date .
Look at that big tree over there .
Yeah , oh my god ! It ' s still there . We have our first date right on there .
Do you know that I fell in love with you at the first sight then ?
You seemed to be dull at that time .
But you agreed to go out with me at last .
( Smile ) I can ' t believe this for it ' s been 20 years since we got married .
So do you feel happy now ?
I couldn ' t have been any happier !
Bob , you look pale . What happened ?
I didn't sleep a wink last night .
Did you have something on your mind ? You look so concerned ! Maybe I can help you .
Well , I'm under a lot of pressure . My boss is very pushy . He assigned me two projects . Now the deadlines are near and I still haven't finish one of them .
Is there anything I can do for you ?
Well , I guess no one can help me but myself . For the moment , I just need someone to talk to so that I can relieve my stress .
Are you sure that this bus will take us to Santa Anita mall ?
Yes , it will .
You know that for a fact ?
Yeah , I take this bus all the time .
Is it a very long bus ride ?
It's about thirty minutes long .
Do you know where we get off at ?
There's a bus stop right behind Macy's .
Really , there's a bus stop right by the mall ?
There's a bus stop in the mall parking lot .
That's convenient .
What are you looking for ?
I lost one of my contact lenses , and I ' m searching high and low for it .
Where did you lose it ? Maybe I can help you to find it .
National Trust .
My name is Alice Lin , and I need to know if some money has been transferred to my account yet .
Just one second , and I'll check .
Dinner's ready ! Come and get it !
These things are always oooo boring . Heard any gossip ? Anybody making the big bucks ?
Rich struck it rich in advertising . And he and Cath got married and just had a child .
That's no news . Those two were high school sweethearts anyway .
Teresa Jones got a boob job .
Uh , I can see that . And Erica Falls has lost a lot of weight .
Fill it up , please .
Fine . Do you want your windshield cleaned ?
No , thank you . I don't have time . How much is that ?
You have drank dozens of cups . You are bound to get a bay window .
Employees in this company have to have a good command of English . Do you think you are proficient in both written and spoken English ?
Yes , I think I am quite proficient in both written and spoken English .
Well , then , please tell me about your English education .
I have been studying English since junior high school . And I majored in English in college .
I see , do you speak any other languages ?
Let me suggest this one . It's an excellent watch , it looks good , and it's only $ 100 .
Hmm . That's not too bad . Does it have a stopwatch ?
Uh , no . Analog watches don't come with stopwatches . You'll have to get a digital if you want a stopwatch .
Oh . I see . Where are your digital watches ?
Right here .
I don't like this kind as much . Never mind the stopwatch then . I'll take that other one . Do you take checks ?
Yes . Make it out to Time After Time .
Here you are .
I'm so glad that the spring festival is near at hand .
me . too i like the festival best of all .
Think of the big face down the eve , hmm .
And special TV programs , fire crackers and the games to play .
Hey , do you know any mystery belief serve the festival ?
Such as ...
You know why fire crackers are set off in festival .
Why ? to welcome the new year of course .
And also to frighten away evil spirits .
Really ?
And my parents say the whole year will be as good or as bad as new year day itself and bad or rude words on the day will bring a bad year .
Is this the front desk ?
Yes , sir . What can I do for you ?
This is Room 705 . The air conditioner in my room doesn't work .
I'll have that taken care of immediately .
And may I have two more towels , please ?
No problem . We'll bring you the towels in just a minute .
My brother joined the army last year .
Oh , what does he look like ? Is he tall ?
He's tall and strong .
Lately I've felt that company morale is at an all-time low what can your firm do to help get my business back on track ?
You definitely made the right move by calling . Our primary business is creating , conducting and customizing fully interactive human resources workshops for companies just like yours .
It seems that my employees are having trouble working as a team . Not to mention serious lapses in service , sales and leadership skills .
Well as we know nothing comes out of a can . We have years of experience tailoring workshops to the specific needs of your company . We can hone in on your problem areas and have your employe
What a relief ! I was beginning to think it was no way to get my business rolling again .
Did you see the 2005 Grammy Awards on TV last night .
Yeah . I was so happy , because my favorite singer , Ricky Martin won ' Best Latin Pop Performance ' .
He seems to win awards everywhere .
He is really great . He has sold millions of records worldwide . He is especially known for his rocking performance at the football World Cup song-the Cup of World .
I heard one observer even said ' It was a song sung in Spanish for international football , and he made it so popular that even the Americans loved it . '
Bob refused all his classmates ' invitations .
I really couldn't understand him .
He is surely a hard nut , nobody likes approaching him .
Good morning . Are you ready to order ?
Yes , I am , thank you . I'll have three scrambled eggs with country ham , toast and jam , please .
Would you like anything to drink ?
I'll have a tomato juice and some iced tea .
Anything else ?
Could I have a slice of pumpkin pie ?
Where do you have to go .
To New York .
When do you have to be there .
Tomorrow morning .
How long do you have to be there ?
Three days .
When will you be back ?
so , which sport do you prefer---basketball or baseball ?
to be honest , I don't really care for either one .
I thought everyone liked basketball . Why don't you like it ?
I used to play basketball when I was little , and I never scored a goal . Every time I watch a basketball game , I think about how horrible I was at it .
that makes sense .
how about you ? What's your favorite sport of all time ?
my absolute favorite is ice hockey .
have you ever seen a live game ?
sure , many times . It's an exciting game for spectators to watch .
I've never really understood the game .
it's not that difficult . If you want to watch a game with me , I can explain the rules and the tactics while we're watching .
thanks , that'd be nice . When's the next ice hockey game on ?
not for a while , but we could watch an old one on the internet so I can explain the game to you .
that's a good idea .
How delicious ! Tender and crisp !
This is the specialty of our restaurant , sir .
Yes , it's really savory .
What courses are you taking ?
Chinese , maths , English , chemistry , physics , biology and so on .
What do you think about the teachers ?
To be honest , I like most of them , except for my Chinese teacher . She is quite young , but her class is too boring !
That's too bad . Do you have any foreign teachers ?
Yes , my oral English teacher is an American . He is from a small town in California .
What is he like ?
He is great . He always tells us not to study for exams , and to pay more attention to communication rather than just memorizing .
Are you able to follow him ?
Not everything , but nearly . He speaks very clearly .
Oh , that's good ! He sounds like a good teacher .
Hello . Can I talk to David ?
One second , please . ( a few seconds later , the receiver comes back and says ) Hello ?
Yes .
I ' m sorry . David is out to lunch right now .
Okay . I ' m his wife . Could you tell him to call me back when he returns ?
Sure . Does he know where to call you ?
Oh , thanks . Please tell him to call my cell-phone number .
Ok , I will .
Thank you very much .
How are your parents these days ?
Oh , they're fine , still very active and enjoying their retirement .
Oh , good . That's nice to hear . Please give my best regards to them when you're home .
Hello . I am calling to apply for the job as an airlines staff . I'd like to check it . Is it part-time or a full-time job ?
OK , the job is a full-time one .
What does the job description say ?
Holly , I just heard some terrible news .
Me , too . I overheard someone say Taylor has a brain tumor .
What ? No , I heard that he has stomach cancer . His ex-girlfriend said it .
That could explain all his stomachaches . He's trying to hide it from us .
Maybe that's why he didn't show up at the potluck . Have you seen him ?
Let's go to the cinema tonight , shall we ?
Good idea . Is there a good movie on ?
What about ' Farewell My Concubine ' ? I've been wanting to see it for a long time .
All right . But it'll be difficult to buy tickets I suppose .
My brother has offered me two tickets for this evening .
What time does it begin ?
At eight thirty .
I'll come for you at about eight .
Welcome , what would you like to order ?
I would like to get a double cheeseburger .
Would you like everything on it ?
I would like everything on it , thank you .
Do you want any fries ?
Let me get some large curly fries .
Can I get you anything to drink ?
Sure , how about a medium Pepsi ?
Is that everything ?
That'll be all . Thanks .
You're welcome , and your total is $ 5 . 48 .
Could I ask some questions regarding to the social benefits ?
Go ahead , please .
How long is my paid vacation every year ?
You ' ll have 10 days paid vacation every year .
What about the insurance and housing policies ?
We will provide you wit life insurance , health insurance , accident insurance , housing benefits , heating allowance and transportation allowance .
How often is the bonus ?
You ' ll be paid a bonus at the end of every year .
Do I have training opportunities ?
We provide our employees with training opportunities at home and abroad .
Well , I don ' t have any other questions so far . I would like to think a couple of days before I give you my final answer .
Sure . I will ask Lucy to call you in two days .
Ok , thank you for your time and patience .
When will our party be held ?
Next Wednesday .
Have you sent out invitations by our party ?
Yes , I have .
When ?
Ten days ago .
Could Dr . Cole like to attend the party ?
Yes , he will .
Have you got anything to declare , madam ?
No , I haven't .
Have you got any wine or spirits ?
No , I don't drink .
What about cigarettes or cigars ?
I've got some cigars .
How many , madam ?
I'm calling to ask about your apartment you advertised .
Yes , we've got great apartments with charming environment and nice scenery . And they are all newly renovated .
That sounds fantastic ! But I am looking for something closer to downtown , as I spend most of my time at the office .
No problem . We have a nice apartment located near the Oriental Square . It's perfect for people busy with office work . It is fully furnished with a service staff taking care of the trivial details .
I'm sure they are wonderful , but I need an unfurnished apartment with relatively lower cost .
Ah ! I get your point . We have just what you need . Our Jinyuan apartments have several floor plans . The one bedroom apartments are very economical , but their layout makes great use of a small amount of space . I think you can find a very apartment there .
Great ! I'll arrange a viewing after work tomorrow afternoon . Could you tell me the detailed dress ?
Of course . It's just at 19 Lingual Road . You can phone me again if you can't find the right place .
Hello , Westhaven Company .
Hello , may I speak to Mr . Richard ?
This is Michael Richard speaking . Who is calling ?
Mr . Richard , this is Henry . I was interviewed by you last Tuesday .
You gave me a deep impression then . Can I help you ?
I ' m just calling to follow up on the situation of the salesman position .
We have made the decision to hire you .
Wonderful . Thank you very much . I have been dreaming to work with your company and I am finally granted the great opportunity . I won ' t let you down and I hope you will contact me when you have any questions .
Are you busy next Saturday ?
No , why ?
I need to get a costume for a fancy dress party , and I reply don't know what to get . Will you come shopping with me ?
Sure I like shopping . Who is organizing the party ?
One of the girls in my office .
What's the occasion ?
There is no specie occasion . She just likes to organize parties from time to time . This time it is a country theme .
That's easy , how about a cowgirl ? Oh I know even better , a Canadian Mountie .
Well where am I going to get that sort of costume ?
Leave it to me . I know exactly where to find it .
Oh good .
May I have your attention please ?
Would you please be quiet , Ladies and Gentlemen ?
Well , my speech isn't very long . Would you please ...
What's this , I wonder ?
I'm not sure . Let me have a look ... It could be a coffee grinder .
A coffee grinder ?
Yes , it must be used for grinding coffee beans .
I am thinking about inviting you to a dinner . When would you have time ? And what kind of food do you fancy ?
That would be great . I am really in the mood for a spicy hotpot . Any special reason for the invitation ?
To thank you for helping me at work last week . If you would not have been so kind , I would not have been able to pick my parents from the airport . You really did me a big favor . Thank you so much .
It was my pleasure . How about this evening ? I feel very hungry now .
Fine , I know a good hotpot place in the downtown area , food there is pretty spicy too . Shall we try that one ?
Hello , housekeeping . Is there anything I can do for you ?
I would like to have my clothes washed . What's the rate ?
We charge $ 5 for a barrel .
OK , here are the clothes .
OK . Everything is in the bag .
Hello , Green Trading Company . What can I do for you ?
I'm Mr . Stephen's secretary . He has an appointment with Mr . Green today .
Yes , it will be at three o ' clock this afternoon .
I'm afraid we have to reschedule it .
Didn't we make that appointment a long time ago ?
I'm very sorry . But Mr . Stephen must leave for Hong Kong right away .
How about Friday afternoon ?
are you looking for a course ?
yes , but I'm not sure which one to sign up for .
what kind of program are you looking for ? Full-time or part-time ?
I have to work during the day , so I want to find a part-time course that I can do in the evenings .
what kind of course are you looking for ?
I need to improve my English .
do you want a one-to-one private tutor or a group class ?
I think a one-to-one course will be too expensive for me , so a group class would be fine .
have you ever considered taking one of our online courses ?
I think I prefer face-to-face instruction better .
that's fine . If you want , you can sign up for a pre-sessional interview .
what's that for ?
one of our qualified teachers will interview you so that they can find a class that suits you best .
do you have a brochure about the course that I can take home to read ?
sure . Here's a brochure about out English classes that meet in the evenings .
So how was your interview ?
I haven't gone to the interview yet . It's tomorrow . I am so nervous .
Don't worry . You should do fine . You have the experience .
I hope so .
Remember , they want someone who works well with people . You've got to show them how easy-going and personable you are .
Shall we have some soup first ?
No , thank you . I don't like soup . I'd rather have some fruit juice to start with .
Ok , and what about the main course ? Which would you rather have , fish or meat ?
Meat , I think .
Don't you like fish then ?
I do , but I want meat .
Shall we have some white wine then ?
Yes , but I prefer red wine with meat .
What would you like for dessert ?
I just want to have a coffee , I think .
Fine , and after dinner , shall we go to a disco ?
Can I help you , sir ?
Yes , please . I'm picking out some presents for my children and wife .
What kind of presents do you want ?
Actually , I don't know exactly . Do you have anything recommended ?
OK . How about some very cool sneakers for your children ? Anyway , it won't cost you much . It's only around $ 59 . 95 for each pair . It might be cheaper than that in America .
Hey , How did you know I came from America ?
Just a hunch , sir .
How much again ?
$ 59 . 95 .
That's really cheap for shoes like those . OK , I'll take 5 pairs .
Sorry , sir .
Why not ?
Because in this duty-free shop , your total expenditure cannot be over $ 300 and you also have one more present to buy for your wife .
Oh , my God . I've totally forgotten about that . Anyway , I think she would like a bottle of perfume .
That's good . And I can also recommend you a good one . It's the brand of DENY .
DENY ? That's very expensive in America . It costs nearly $ 70 for only 50ml .
It's $ 60 here .
That's very unbelievable . Is it fake ?
Of course not , sir .
Excuse me . May I ask you some questions ?
Sure . What do you want to know ?
Could you please tell me how many credits would be required for a bachelor's degree ?
Well , you have to get 166 credits , including required courses and optional courses .
OK . And how long does it take to get a bachelor's degree ?
It can be completed in four years normally .
I see . Thank you very much .
I enjoyed talking to you .
I enjoyed talking to you too .
We should hang out some time .
I think that would be nice .
Is there anything you would like to do next time ?
Do you want to go out to eat ?
I'd like that .
So I'll see you next time .
I'm going to call you soon .
I'll talk to you later .
See you soon .
Hi , I ' m the superintendent of this building . What can I do for you ?
Hi , I ' m Paul . Could you show me the apartment on the first floor ?
Sure . Let ' s go .
I like this one . How much is the rent ?
$ 850 a month .
Does the rent include utilities ?
No . Utilities are extra .
Where ' s the laundry room ?
It ' s on the other side of this floor .
What ' s your rule about pets ?
We allow one or two pets but you have to pay a $ 300 deposit .
How come ?
If your pet ruins the apartment walls or carpet we ' ll keep your pet deposit . If not , we ' ll return your deposit when you move out . But be careful , we don ' t allow pet snakes in the apartment .
who takes care of bug control ?
We do . We will spray the apartments before you move in .
How are you doing with your English Language studies ?
I think I'm making good progress .
Is it harder than you thought ?
Ahh ... What a fine day ! I do feel like an outdoor exercise .
How about taking a walk in the park ?
OK . It's delightful to have a walk in the park with the air so fresh .
Oh , it's so quiet here . We have the park to ourselves , only you and me !
Don't you see many people over there ? Just on your left .
Oh , I see them . Some are doing Taijiquan , some are performing swordplay , some are practising the Chinese Wushu .
Are you ready to order ?
Yes . I'll have the fresh fruit cocktail .
And for your entree ?
Are there any scenic spots nearby ?
You can go to ZhongShan Park .
Have you ever been there ?
Yes . The scenery there is so breathtaking
Really ?
When do children start school in your country ?
Normally at six . Before that , they spend several years in the kindergarten or pre-school education center .
But thats only in the cities , isnt it ?
Right . In the countryside , things are more complicated .
Can kids in the countryside get equally good benefits and education like those in the cities ?
Have you heard that we will have reorganization ?
No , really ?
Yes , flexible , aggressive and creative people are urgently needed in the marketing department .
Who will be there ?
James is going to be packed off there .
Good afternoon , madam . Can I help you ?
Yes , I'd like to change these dollars , please ?
OK . How do you like your money , madam ?
In fifty yuan bills , please ?
morning , Mr . Emory . I was hoping to set up an appointment with you for sometime this week .
Hmm . I ' m pretty booked up this week . Let ' s move it up to next week .
Fine , Mr . Emory . Would next Monday at 4:00 o ' clock be all right for you ?
Are you feeling better today , Bill ?
Well , it ' s hard to say . I coughed a lot in the evening .
You ' d better give up smoking . It ' s bad for your health .
You ' re right . But you know it ' s so hard to give up the old habit like smoking .
But you should make up your mind first .
You know I often have to work far into the night . I need smoking to keep me awake .
Why don ' t you go to bed early and get up early ? You ' ll have the same time for work .
Have a nice weekend .
Hey , Michael . Remember me ? I'm Becky . We used to work at Lemans together .
Oh , sure . How are you ? Long time no see . How are things at Lemans ?
It's about the same . I've been thinking of making a change myself . Do you mind if I ask you a few things about your job at the university ?
No , not at all . Go ahead .
Well , I was wondering what the salaries are like ? I mean ... are they much lower than the corporate world ?
Well , I can't speak for all universities , but my salary is a definitely lower than at Lemans . I just don't think the salaries are comparable when you leave a major corporation .
Yeah , that's what I thought . But , I've heard that the perks are better . I was wondering if that was really true .
I'd have to say yes and no on that . I don't get a big end-of-the-year bonus like I did at Lemans but I get to take classes for free if I want to . I've always wanted to get a graduate degree so I'm taking classes now to do that .
Oh , that's great . It sounds like you're really happy with your move .
That price of ours , by the way , is for a minimum quantity of 1,000 saddles .
Yes , I noticed that . To what extent would local assembly help sales , did you say ?
20-30 % . But we proposed the plan from the storage and delivery viewpoint . That is to say , less warehouse space and prompt delivery .
Yes , of course . Assembly would be quite a simple matter . Cycle dealers could put them together in a very short time .
Sales have been exceptionally good during the past twelve months .
Yes , I've noticed that . Where have you been placing them ?
All in the local market . One or two suggestions that came in from the distribution might interest you .
Yes . What were they ? Anything that will help sales ?
Perhaps . General opinion is that the rear carrier should be offered as an extra .
That's to keep the price down , I suppose . I'll take it up with our overseas department and listen to what they've got to say about this .
Do you take reservations ?
Of course . Reservations aren't necessary , but we recommend them as our restaurant can get quite busy .
I need a table for two for tonight .
What time ?
We'd like to be seated at 8p m .
Smoking or non ?
Non-smoking .
What name is the reservation under ?
My name is Paul .
Oh Gush ! The first day of my career is over . I can not breathe now after dealing with so many documents . But I heard the notice that our company will hold two-week staff training .
Stop fussing ! It is said that the training is important for our newcomers . And my company also informs me to attend the training next week .
But for me , the training is waste of my precious time .
What ' s wrong with it ?
It ' s broken . I just bought it yesterday , you know , it costs me $ 556 .
It sounds too bad . What will you do ?
Mike suggests me to return it .
I have failed in my final examination . What can I do now ?
I have a terrible toothache .
Which tooth is it ?
( Pointing ) This one here .
Ah , yes . There's big cavity .
Can you fill it ?
I'm afraid not . The tooth is too far gone . It'll have to be taken out .
Then I might as well have it out now .
The boat is ready to leave . Everyone come onto the ship , please .
Excuse me , where is my cabin ?
Can I see your ticket ?
Of course . Here you are .
Your seat is in cabin No . 5 , the upper deck . It ' s near amid ship .
Can you direct the place for me ?
There ! ( Point out the direction . ) You can see a window there .
I see . Thank you .
What sights are included on the tour ? Is the entire time spent in Paris ?
All of the major sights are included . You'll visit the Louvre , the Eiffel Tower and all of the top museums . You'll also take a day trip out of Paris to Versailles .
Can you fax a copy of the tour itinerary to me ?
Of course . Just give me your fax number .
It's 212-331-7600 .
Don't you think all of the money goes to the ads and we have nothing to read .
But newspapers do get some extra income by offering space for ads .
Does your wife work ?
Yes , she does . She works at home .
Oh , I understand . She cooks , cleans and takes care of children . Is that right ?
Oh , no . Most of the time I do these things . She is a writer .
I really should be on my way .
Oh , not yet . At least have one for the road .
No , thanks all the same .
Well , I am sorry you have to leave so early .
Thank you very much . I really had a good time .
Well , thank you for coming .
So see you .
Get up as early as six o'clock only to be jammed at every crossroad and still late for work . What a life ! I've had enough of it .
Cool down , man . Everyone is fed up with the rush-hour traffic . But life isn't really all that . You should take the initiative and make some changes first .
What should I do then ?
I recommend you ride a bike instead of commuting by bus . It may offer you many benefits . First , it's good for your health . I'm afraid it's not necessary for me to further elaborate . While lots of people spend time like an hour each morning exercising , a bike ride to work not only builds you up , but also makes full use of time . You might as well sleep out for a longer hour .
I know cycling is always a more favorable choice than a bus . After all , it's a sport . But do you think it a pleasant experience to take in the dirty , polled air on the road ?
So can you fix it ?
I ' m sorry sir . This computer is not broken or damaged . It ' s simply just too old ! That ' s why your programs and applications are running slow . There really isn ' t much I can do .
What do you mean ? I bought this computer just three years ago !
Yes , but technology is ever changing and technology is becoming obsolete faster and faster !
OK , I know where this is going . How much will it cost me to get a new computer ?
Well , this desktop over here is our latest model . It has a four gigahertz processor with sixteen gigabytes in RAM and a hard disk with one terabyte . Of course , it includes a mouse , keyboard and desk speakers .
I have no idea what you are talking about . I just want to know if it ' s good and if I will be able to play solitaire without the computer crashing or freezing all the time !
How about we taking a tour to Hawaii ? I have a 2 - weeks ' vacation .
That sounds fantabulous . I have dreamed of going there for months .
Me , too . Why don't we get ready now ?
I'm afraid it's bad news for you . You haven't got the position .
Oh , no ! I can't have failed . Are you sure ?
I'm afraid so . I'm terribly sorry .
It sucks . But Arden told me he's satisfied with my qualifications and experience .
He's the only one of the several to decide this .
How am I going to face the fellows in our office ? They thought I would be promoted . They must be waiting for my good news .
I don't think the thing can be that serious . You should face the result . Besides , I don't think the position is the best for you .
But I lost the chance .
Good morning , sir . How may I help you ?
I'd like to open an account .
Certainly , sir . Would you like to open a time deposit savings account or a checking account ?
Actually , I'd like to open one of each , if that's possible .
No problem , sir . What sort of time deposit account would you like to open ?
What are my choices ?
Did you say you saw lily alone ?
Yes , nobody was with her .
Where did you say she was ?
In Thailand .
I must say I think that is very odd . Are you absolutely certain it was her ?
Yes . yes , I am sure .
Because I don't want any , er , do you understand ? But you are quite sure , are you ?
What can I do for you ?
I need to make a deposit .
Are you depositing cash or a check ?
I ' m depositing a check .
Please sign the back of the check .
There you go .
Do you want cash back ?
Yes , please .
How much cash would you like ?
I want $ 150 .
Here ' s your $ 150 .
Have you seen that house ?
Yes , it looks interesting .
You're right . I love it very much .
It must be old .
At least more than 100 years old .
Let's enter it !
I can't open the door .
It must be locked .
Let me ask the old woman in that reception office .
She can't answer you .
She must be deaf .
It must be a haunted house . Are you frightened ?
How is your ankle ?
My what ? Oh , that , right as a trivet .
Please be careful next time .
Wow ! What ' s the hold up ?
It ' s probably just people trying to get an early start out of the city for the weekend . Nobody sticks around in the summer .
Really ? Then , I guess I won ' t have a hard time finding a room or getting a cab ?
Actually , you might because there ' s a big convention in town this weekend .
You are late . What ' s the deal ?
May I borrow your typewriter ?
How long would you like to keep it ?
Until the end of the week .
What sort of things do you grow in your garden ?
I grow a variety of things , so that something is in bloom all year round .
When is your garden at its best ?
Sir , may I please see your license and registration ? Do you know how fast you were going ?
No , I'm not sure . I think about 65 mph , right ?
You're not sure ? You were going at 90 miles per hour ! That's 25 mph over the legal speed limit ! Have you been drinking ?
No , Officer , not at all .
Then how can you explain your behavior ?
Well , I guess I just wasn't paying attention to the speedometer .
Not paying attention to the speedometer ? Why not ?
Um , because I was busy talking to my friend .
On a cell phone ?
Yes , I was using a cell phone . I just bought it , so I decided to give my friend a phone call to tell him about it . While I did that I also turned on the radio and was listening to one of my favorite songs , and eating some food I had bought at a fast food restaurant , and , um ... guess I had too many distractions .
I think it's high time we had lunch .
Of course . I can eat a horse now .
I am sorry for that . I was so attracted by the beautiful scenery .
Where shall we go now ? A Chinese restaurant or a local one ?
Happy Birthday , Mary !
Thank you .
Here is a gift for you . I hope you like it .
What a lovely dog ! How did you know I love things like this ?
I had my own ways of finding out . It ' s a secret . You look so beautiful today . Your new shirt goes well with your skirt .
Maybe you won't believe this , but it was made by my grandmother .
Really ? It looks so nice .
Thank you , Please have a cup of tea .
All right .
How about some fish ?
No , thanks . I've had enough . Now , Mary , before you blow out the birthday candles , you have to make a wish . After that , you may cut the cake .
OK . Let me make a wish ... Do you want a big piece of cake ?
No , just a small one . Next Let's sing " Happy Birthday " to Mary .
I've heard that you've made a new strange friend recently , Sophie .
Yes . He is an old man with a great sense of humour . Not only can he play the piano , he also draws pictures very well .
So you can learn a lot from him .
How are your Chinese and English ?
I can confidently say that my Chinese and English are pretty good . I won prizes in many speech contests in both Chinese and English .
How would you consider your salary if you succeed in becoming a translator in our company ?
Look , Jim . That man just fell down over there .
We better see if he ' s o . k .
Sir ... sir ? Are you all right ? Sir ?
He ' s not answering . You ' d better check his pulse and breathing .
Oh , no . He ' s not breathing , and there ' s no pulse . Call 911 .
Hey Mei Hong , how are you getting to Xi ' an next week ?
I ' m not sure yet . I may take the train but then again I might take the bus .
Yeah but the bus takes a long time . You could fly - it ' s not so expensive these days .
Really ? Maybe I ' ll do that then .
Ok well , you let me know your schedule and I ' ll book a ticket for you .
How many people are there in your family ?
My immediate family is quite small . It's just my older step-brother , my mom , my step-dad and me . How about you ?
I have a large family . I have three older sisters , my twin sister , a younger brother , and my parents .
I didn't know you were a twin ! Are you identical or fraternal ?
We're identical . I mean , we look exactly the same , but we complete opposites when it comes to everything else !
Interesting . It must be great having a twin sister . Are you best friends , too ?
We used to be really close , but that all changed once she moved to Shanghai . How about your family ? You didn't mention to your biological father .
I don't know much about him . He died when I was just a baby . Even though I don't have a blood relationship with my step-father and step-brother , I consider them to be my real family .
What about your step-brother's mother ? Does he keep in touch with her ?
No , she also died when my step-brother was little . My mother and my step-father met each other shortly after my father died and became good friends . They ended up getting married a few years later .
What are you guys doing ?
Did you hear who won the election ?
No , who was it ?
McCain is our new President .
You ' re a liar !
I ' m not happy about it , either .
Who voted for him ?
I guess the people wanted him as our new leader .
That ' s the dumbest thing that I ' Ve ever heard .
I have to tell you something else that you probably won ' t like .
What could be worse than what you just told me ?
I wasn ' t serious , because Obama got elected .
Hello , Mary . What ' s the matter with you ? You look upset .
My friend and I was argued with each other . For this , I ' m very sad . Because I don ' t want to lose this friend .
Oh , I ' m sorry to hear that . I know how you feel . Please don ' t be sad .
Thank you , but I really want to relax myself . I ' m very sorry .
Doctor , I feel much better now . Will I be albe to go home some time this week ?
That's good to hear . You've had an ideal recovery from your operation . We're going to send you home tomorrow .
Do you think I can get back to work very soon ?
Don't be in such a hurry . I'm confident that you'll be completely recovered in 4 to 6 weeks .
Is there anything I should do ?
You'd better have a good rest for a week . Be sure to have regular meals . Stay away from alcohol . Give up smoking at least a little while .
Should I take some medicine ?
Yes . I'm going to give you some . Take one tablet of this medicine three times a day before meals . For that one , two tablets . And remember to come to the outpatient department for a consultation in two weeks , please .
It's very kind of you .
So Jen , what did you think of William ? Did you guys have a nice time on your first date ?
Oh yeah , it was great ! He took me to an Italian restaurant and we had an amazing conversation . I told him about how many kids I want , and how my parents will be so excited to meet him .
You said all that on the first date ? Alright ... Well are you two going out again ?
Who was the best teacher that you ever had ?
That would have to be Miss Baymler , my fourth grade teacher .
What was she like ?
She was patient , kind , fun , smart , caring , and yet strict , too . I really learned a lot from her .
What kind of things did you learn ?
She taught us that you can do anything that you want to do .
Anything ? Do you really believe that we can do anything ?
If you really want to do something and you work hard at it , I believe you can do it .
You said she was strict . Did she have a lot of rules ?
She had some rules that helped us to feel comfortable . For example , the students had to treat each other with respect , or they would be disciplined .
I see . She sounds like she really cared about her students .
Yes . She treated us all fairly . She don ' t have any teacher ' s pets .
Really ? Doesn ' t every teacher have a teacher ' s pet ?
Well . To be honest , I usually sucked up to teachers because I wanted them to give me good grades . However , Miss Baymler didn ' t treat me any differently . She really didn ' t have any teacher ' s pets .
Do you know what she is doing now ?
As a matter of fact , I do . After she taught our class , she got married and moved to another city . Then , she started writing children ' s book .
Have you ever read one of the books ?
Of course ! Both children and adults enjoy her books .
Why don ' t you recommend one to me ?
Long time no see !
Yes . It has been a long time since the last time we met .
It's nice to see you again . Have you changed jobs ?
No . I've been visiting relatives recently .
That's nice . Where have you been ?
I went to visit an uncle in San Francisco .
Are you busy now ?
No . Why ?
How about a coffee in that cafe ?
It ' s a wonderful party , Joan , The food , the drink , the atmosphere ... Everyone is enjoying himself .
Thanks to your help . To our friendship .
Bottoms up ! By the way what kind of entertainment are we gonna have ?
Dancing . The boys from the Campus Band have promised to play music for us .
Oh , how wonderful ! Every girl on the campus has a crush on those handsome guys .
I have just had my new paper published .
You have done excellent work .
I'm going to Britain .
Really ? How did you get the chance ?
I have been accepted by Oxford University on PhD .
My warmest congratulations on your entering the Oxford University .
Where were decorating and I ' m going to ask some things .
Well , I ' ll be glad to help you out . We can deliver what you need to your office .
Shall we need at 1 fifteen this Thursday ? We definitely need some new filing cabinets and at least one desk unit .
Can you help me find a pan ?
Are you looking for a small , medium , or large pan ?
I want a big pan .
Does this one look big enough ?
Yes , it's the right size , but it weighs too much .
Well , what do you think of the aluminum pan ?
It's light enough , but the handle will get too hot after cooking .
Here's the same pan , but it has a space-age , heat-resistant plastic handle .
Oh , my family's going to love this one . I'll take it .
I'm so happy that you found what you wanted . Do you want to use a credit card ?
Sure . Wait , wait . Does a lid come with this pan ?
Would you mind telling me your grades in high school ?
Of course not . My school record was above average in my class .
Very good . What was your favorite subject in middle school ?
English . I've liked English ever since middle school , and then in university , I had some excellent teachers .
How were your scores in university ?
How are you ?
I'm fine thanks . How about you ?
I'm okay . What are you doing these days ?
Not a lot , actually . Busy at work of course - we've got a big project coming up in Malaysia . I may have to go to KL in a few weeks .
That's great . When are you starting ?
What's the matter , sir ? You look pale .
I feel dizzy and weak . And I'm having this pain in my ear . I think I am sick .
Are you often traveling by plane ?
No , this is the second time .
That's right . It's normal if you don't often take the plane . Just relax a little bit .
Why this happens to me when I am on the plane ? I feel bad .
Don't worry , sir . It's just because of the lower pressure .
What should I do about it ?
You may feel much better if you chew some gum or peanuts .
OK , thanks . Does it work really ? I'll give a try .
Are you feeling better now ? Do you need some pills ?
Much better . Thank you . I just feel tired but I can't fall asleep .
So , you'd better wear this eyeshade and you will sleep well .
I am not used to wearing that . Thanks .
If you try to adapt yourself to your destination's local time , you'll feel more comfortable . So please try to sleep , and have meals according to Los Angeles's time .
Thank you so much .
Hello Mike ! Would you like a drink ?
No , thank you . I had too much to drink yesterday evening . I had a bad hangover this morning . My head felt terrible .
Were you celebrating something ?
Yes . It was a friend ' s birthday party . We drank all kinds of things-beer , wine and spirits . After midnight , we were even drinking cocktails !
It ' s a bad idea to drink a combination of alcoholic drinks . You should stick with one for the whole evening .
I know , but it was a celebration , you Kwon ? I don ' t think I ' Ve see you drunk .
I usually only drink beer and I rarely drink more than a few pints .
You are a sensible drinker . Anyway , I ' m not going to drink any alcohol this evening . I don ' t ' want another bad hangover .
Let me buy you a soft drink then . How about a coke ?
Yeah . That ' s a good idea . I heard that coke was first used as a medicine .
Rally ? ... barman ! ... a large coke with ice and lemon , please ... thanks . Here ' s the money .
Are you going to the wine tasting tomorrow ?
Yes . I thought it might be interesting to learn a little about wine ...
... and taste a few ! There will be wines from several countries and an expert to give advice on which wines are good and which ones are not .
Stephanie ! Did you just get to school ? But you were up and about when I left the dorm this morning ! That was about an hour and a half ago . This happens all the time ! Why do you always take so long
It ' s a skill . What can I say ? I don ' t know why , I just have a long routine .
Please explain because it makes no sense to me . How can a girl ' s routine be so complicated ? You get up , you shower , you get dressed , you brush your teeth , you ' re out the door . Half an hour , tops .
Jacob , you have the luxury of having a haircut that rarely needs styling . I don ' t . I have to set aside about an hour and a half to get ready in the mornings . Every day , I wake up and head straight for the shower . Every second day , I wash my hair . If it ' s a hair-washing day , I frequently need to wash my hair twice because it gets really oily . Then I usually put in a conditioner and have to rinse that out too . Because my hair is so long , I seldom manage to take a shower in under twenty minutes . Afterwards , I often put on a pot of coffee and get dressed while I wait for it to brew . I take a long time to get dressed in the morning . Every now and then I remember to choose my outfit the night before , but usually I do it in the morning . In all , getting dressed takes about half an hour , at which time my hair is now semi-dry so then I have to style my hair . From time to time I ' ll put my hair up , butoften times I bloody it straight . And then , because of the texture of my hair , I regularly have to flat-iron it to keep it from frizzing . That ' s another twenty minutes or so . After that , I have my daily makeup routine .
True , I hardly ever see you without your hair done and your makeup on , even when you show up to class in sweatpants . Tell me , how long does it take you to choose that outfit in the morning ?
Where are you from ?
My minibar is completely empty .
Everything in that minibar has been consumed , sir ?
Everything's gone .
Is there anything special you'd like ?
Just bring me three bottles each of Jim Beam and Perrier .
Okay , sir . Three of each . Would you like anything else ?
The fruit basket was great . I need a few more apples , please .
Perrier , Jim Beam , and apples . Is that it for now ?
Yes , one last thing
Are you new to this school ?
Yes , I ' m new .
Is this your first year in college ?
I transferred from another school .
Where did you transfer from ?
I was at PCC before .
Why did you transfer ?
I was going to go here first , but my grades weren ' t good enough .
Did you like it at PCC ?
PCC is an incredible school .
Well , I wish you luck here .
Actually , you can take advantage of our " New Millennium Woman " promotion .
Does that include some kind of " Love , Amy Card " ?
Yes . If your " Love , Amy " purchases amount to 10,000 NT or more , you get a V . I . P . card and a 20 percent discount .
Mmmm ... I'll have to think about it .
Well , what did you think about the last candidate ? Do you think we should hire her ?
She had a very impressive resume , but she seemed to lack the confidence that I think a good manager needs .
What made you think that she wasn't very confident ?
Did you notice the way that she avoided making eye contact with us while she talked ?
She was a bit nervous , I guess . What else ?
When she first walked into the room to greet us , she didn't shake our hands or introduce herself at all . I thought that was a bit unprofessional .
you're right . If she walked into meetings with our clients like that , it would make our company look bad , wouldn't it ?
It sure would . Did you also notice the way she slouched in her chair during most of the interview ? She had horrible posture !
I agree . I guess I was paying more attention to her answers than her body language .
On top fo all of that , she didn't seem to have any sense about people's personal space . she didn't keep enough distance between us when during the meeting .
That's true . I guess we'll have to keep looking for a manager then .
Tomorrow is my day off . I wonder if it's convenient to change our appointment from tomorrow to next Wednesday , still at the same time .
I'm afraid I won't be free next week .
It's a shame . Will this afternoon be all right ? But I can only spare you an hour and a half today , from four o'clock .
What does this have to do with me ?
You know all about coffee . I need your advice , so I won't look stupid when I order .
Order tea . Isn't that what you like to drink ?
Come on , Hugh ! Tea is for wimps ! Please , I need your help .
If you want to be macho , order a double shot of espresso .
Why did she do that ?
What book is that ?
I just bought a new atlas . I ' m looking this map of the world . Look at Russia ! That ' s a vast country .
Canada , China , and the USA are huge too .
There are several tiny countries in the world too . Countries like Monaco are smaller than many cities .
Those small countries are microscopic compared to Russia . European countries are relatively small . France looks quite big in Europe , but compared to many countries in other continents , it ' s not very large at all .
Britain is half the size of france , but great Britain is still one of the largest islands in the world .
Excuse me , can you do me a favor ?
Sure .
Where's the busiest street of this city ? I am a stranger here .
You mean the seventy seventh ? It's not far from here . You can walk there .
Well , we are so tired today . Can you tell me which bus I should take ?
Bus No . 12 .
It ' s so relaxing , taking a walk in the country . The air is so fresh and clean .
Would you like to live in the country ? I ' m not sure I ' d like it .
I can see a lot of advantage and disadvantage . The problem is that , for me , each advantage has its own disadvantage .
What do you mean ?
Well , I hate the noise in the city , but I love being around lost of people . The problem is that you can ' t have lots of people and have peace and quiet . The tow just don ' t go together .
I see what you mean . I love being far away from a city , but I hate being so far away department stores and sports facilities .
People can ' t have it both ways . If you live in the country , it is often less convenient . If you live in a city , it is noisy , buy there ' s more to do .
I would love to be surrounded by hills and streams . They ' re so much better to look at than concrete , rows of parked cars and tall buildings .
I would love to hear the birds singing and feel the fresh breeze on my face . When the wind blows in the city , you get dust in your mouth and in your eyes .
The view from the hill is so beautiful and relaxing . There ' s so sign of pollution . The village looks so peaceful .
Just remember that in that village there ' s nothing to do . There ' s not even a pub or restaurant . There ' s just one small shop with a poor selection of goods .
Excuse me , are you Sara Wilson ?
Yes , I am . You must be Tom . Nice to meet you .
Nice to meet you too . Let me help you with your bags .
Be careful , Tom . Those are pretty heavy .
Would you like to order now ?
Yes , can you recommend some steak ?
Sure . I think pepper steak is quite good . Many guests like it very much .
OK I will try it . Do you have a small portion ? I am afraid I can't finish the large one .
I'd like to meet you again sometime .
That would be great . Actually , can I get your phone number , Ella ? That's assuming you don't mind if I call you sometime .
Anytime . You can reach me at 5558929 .
Ok , got it . I will call you sometime next week .
Fine .
It's time to go . Bye , Ella . Hope to see you soon
What do you know about Julia Roberts ?

How far is it ?
About a mile and a half .
How long does it take to get there ?
5 minutes or so .
Is it close to the subway station ?
Yes , it's very close . The subway station is next to the hotel . You can walk there .

C'mon , don't blame me ! I thought it was a new camera . We could use it . We were even thinking about buying a camera . I don't understand how he could have such a perfect-looking box .

Maybe his friend works in an electronics store . They sell video cameras there . Probably they had a couple video camera boxes lying around . So they get the idea of wrapping bricks to sell to fools like you . Twenty dollars a brick . That's a good profit if they can sell enough bricks .

We had a lot of fun learning together . It helps to build up the work relation among colleagues .

Well done , Fred . Do you know something useful for our promotion for our I-series ? OK , Let me see . I suppose we must strengthen our promotion , because our brand is still new to some consumers .

Besides , the advertisement fund can encourage them to spend more attention on advertising our products .

No , I don't really care too much for seminars ... I find them to be either boring ot useless . I mean , how much can you really learn in one afternoon ?

The social mixers are always more important than the seminars anyway .

Did you hear ? The state is thinking of legalizing gambling in our city ! Soon we are gonna have amazing hotels and casinos here which will be good for our business ! Are you serious ? Gambling is a vice industry built on deception and fed by the intentional exploitation of human weakness for the sole purpose of monetary gain ! It disgusts me .
Are you serious ? Gambling is a vice industry built on deception and fed by the intentional exploitation of human weakness for the sole purpose of monetary gain ! It disgusts me . What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ?
What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ? Well , to begin with , Gambling is addictive , ruins marriages , destroys families and bankrupts communities . Once you are addicted it is very difficult to stop . People have lost their houses , cars and been left out on the street after becoming addicted . Secondly , it exploits because men become addicted to gambling most often because of the action and risk . Women gamble to escape , and senior citizens will start gambling for the social interaction . Underage gamblers often start gambling on sports with friends and then illegal bookies .

Hello there , welcome to Wine World . Let me know if I can help you out at all . Um , yes , please , I could really use some help . I'm going over to my boss'house for dinner tonight and don't know what kind of wine I should bring .
Um , yes , please , I could really use some help . I'm going over to my boss'house for dinner tonight and don't know what kind of wine I should bring . OK , do you know what kind of food will be served ?
OK , do you know what kind of food will be served ? Well , his wife is Japanese . He said she makes really good sushi .
Well , his wife is Japanese . He said she makes really good sushi . Hmm , that's a bit of a challenge . Sushi is notoriously difficult to pair with wine . Well , let's see . have to be a white wine , of course .
Hmm , that's a bit of a challenge . Sushi is notoriously difficult to pair with wine . Well , let's see . have to be a white wine , of course . Why ? Wouldn't a red wine go well with sushi ?
Why ? Wouldn't a red wine go well with sushi ? No , I don't think so . Sushi is a very delicately flavored food , and red wine would be a jarring contrast . You need a white wine , which has more subtle flavors , to complement the fish .
No , I don't think so . Sushi is a very delicately flavored food , and red wine would be a jarring contrast . You need a white wine , which has more subtle flavors , to complement the fish . I see . So should I get a bottle of Chardonnay ? That's a white wine , right ?
I see . So should I get a bottle of Chardonnay ? That's a white wine , right ? Yes , Chardonnay is a white wine , but I'm not sure it'd be your best bet . Chardonnay is one of the more fullbodied whites , and tends to be a bit oaky . I'd suggest that you go for something brighter , like this Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand .
Yes , Chardonnay is a white wine , but I'm not sure it'd be your best bet . Chardonnay is one of the more fullbodied whites , and tends to be a bit oaky . I'd suggest that you go for something brighter , like this Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand . Sauvignon Blanc ? What's that ?
Sauvignon Blanc ? What's that ? That's another varietal , or type of grape , just like Chardonnay .
That's another varietal , or type of grape , just like Chardonnay . Let's see . The label says it's got " attractive citrus and grassy aromas that give way to crisp , mineral flavors and a bonedry finish . Serve chilled . " Oh , no , how long will it take to chill the wine ? I'm on my way to the dinner now .
Let's see . The label says it's got " attractive citrus and grassy aromas that give way to crisp , mineral flavors and a bonedry finish . Serve chilled . " Oh , no , how long will it take to chill the wine ? I'm on my way to the dinner now . It's OK , don't worry , we'll just choose a wine from the cooler . We don't have quite as extensive a selection over here , but ... this Rhone Valley white would be lovely .
It's OK , don't worry , we'll just choose a wine from the cooler . We don't have quite as extensive a selection over here , but ... this Rhone Valley white would be lovely . All right . What varietal is that ?
All right . What varietal is that ? Well , this is a French wine , so they don't always specify the varietal on the label . The French believe that the soil a grape is grown in is one of the most important factors in the final flavor of the wine . This wine is probably a blend of a few different types of grapes , mostly Viognier , I'd guess .

And you think this is a good wine ? Yes , this is one of our best-sellers . It's not quite as dry as the Sauvignon Blanc we were looking at earlier , which means it's more approachable . It's light and crisp , with a bit of a vanilla aroma .

Mary said Jack was cheating on her . Jack was seeing a girl from his hometown . One day , May saw them holding hands and ended the relationship immediately . Really ? I ' m very surprised . He doesn ' t look like a guy who ' d ever do that sort of thing , right ?

That's right . Not all states have an income tax . Some use higher property taxes or sales taxes instead . I see . All right , well I think everything else I can figure out on my own . The deductions for health insurance and my 401 ( K ) are pretty self-explanatory . Thanks for your help , Susan .

I want a facial . But this is the first time I've come here , so can you tell me how you do it ? Sure . Most facials start with a thorough cleaning .

After that , we'll massage your face and neck with oil or cream to improve the circulation and relieve the tension , followed by a mask to moisturize and soften the skin .

All they want is your money . But in the long run , they will be losing costumers . Anyway , car service business is new in China . We all have to control what they are doing . Otherwise , they will not improve .

I like chess better than xiangqi . And you ? For my part , xiangqi . Maybe it's because my girlfriend is Chinese .

Another contrast is the rules for the general and the king . It seems the general or marshal in xiangqi is much too incompetent . They are required to stay in the palace , waiting to be checked and fleeing for life under the cover of the guards . Look at the king in chess , he is much more capable .

Yeah , and though the king in chess doesn't have bodyguards , he has a queen who is the most powerful piece .

I think it is easier to buy a car than to maintain it . What ' s worse , I just don ' t trust those vehicle maintenance shops . Sometimes , they overcharge or don ' t build those parts I have been paying for . Last week , they even tried to persuade me to buy new parts which really need not to be changed . You know , my car is just half a year old and also good brand . I was just wondering about all these . There are such shops living on selling parts . I don ' t like their service either . All they want is your money . But in the long run , they will be losing costumers . Anyway , car service business is new in China . We all have to control what they are doing . Otherwise , they will not improve .

Did you hear ? The state is thinking of legalizing gambling in our city ! Soon we are gonna have amazing hotels and casinos here which will be good for our business ! Are you serious ?

Are you serious ? Gambling is a vice industry built on deception and fed by the intentional exploitation of human weakness for the sole purpose of monetary gain ! It disgusts me . What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ?
What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ? Well , to begin with , Gambling is addictive , ruins marriages , destroys families and bankrupts communities .

Secondly , it exploits because men become addicted to gambling most often because of the action and risk . Women gamble to escape , and senior citizens will start gambling for the social interaction . Underage gamblers often start gambling on sports with friends and then illegal bookies .

Welcome back movie lovers to another Premier Movie Review . My name is Richard Clarke and I am joined today by the very erudite DavidWatson . Thank you Dick . Today we are going to talk about the movie Lion King . Tell me Dave , what is your impression of this film ?
Thank you Dick . Today we are going to talk about the movie Lion King . Tell me Dave , what is your impression of this film ? Well , I think this film is simply a fable , depicting man ' s eternal greed for power , and in my opinion , it ' s a very fine film . Even despite the accusations of plagiarism traditional folk tales from other countries . The musical score was amazing , the animation was very well done , and the story was simply enchanting .
Well , I think this film is simply a fable , depicting man ' s eternal greed for power , and in my opinion , it ' s a very fine film . Even despite the accusations of plagiarism traditional folk tales from other countries . The musical score was amazing , the animation was very well done , and the story was simply enchanting . I think otherwise . Even though the animation was technically strong , and as you say , the score and songs performed by Elton John were great , the film lacks a certain originality ; it lacked heart . And I would dare to say , it was too predictable .
I think otherwise . Even though the animation was technically strong , and as you say , the score and songs performed by Elton John were great , the film lacks a certain originality ; it lacked heart . And I would dare to say , it was too predictable . Predictable ! How ! Come on Dick , It ' s a G-rated movie ! It ' s for the kids ! It ' s not a thriller !
Predictable ! How ! Come on Dick , It ' s a G-rated movie ! It ' s for the kids ! It ' s not a thriller ! Well , that ' s just it . It did have some very dramatic and intense scenes For example when Mufasal dies , or the dark , grim portrayal of Scar . Even so , the film is linear . Mufasal dies , Simba runs away thinking it ' s his fault . Falls in love and returns to retake what is rightfully his . It ' s just too cliche .

Mufasal dies , Simba runs away thinking it ' s his fault . Falls in love and returns to retake what is rightfully his . It ' s just too cliche . How can it be cliche ? It ' s a fable ! It ' s telling a time-honoured story ! The movie make a point of how the hunger for power leads to corruption , and teaches children the value of respect , life and love .

I watched the movie Forrest Gump last night . And the question just lined in my mind . Well . I think IQ matters more . But it won't work without EQ .
Well . I think IQ matters more . But it won't work without EQ . Why ? You seem pretty sure about it .

Did you watch the Premiership last night ? Yes , I watched United play Chelsea . What a fierce battle ! allay were engaged in intensive pressing and tackling in midfield . Well , it was not like a normal English League match .
Yes , I watched United play Chelsea . What a fierce battle ! allay were engaged in intensive pressing and tackling in midfield . Well , it was not like a normal English League match . No , it wasn't . Rather , it looked like a Bundesliga match , where physical contact is so frequent . English League teams are apt to pass the midfield quickly with long passes . It seems to me English soccer players are very gentlemanly . As Diego Maradona spoke teasingly , they often knew only chasing hard after the ball , but forgot to steal it .

It seems to me English soccer players are very gentlemanly . As Diego Maradona spoke teasingly , they often knew only chasing hard after the ball , but forgot to steal it . Haha . That's probably why slide tackle and fouls are less common , and offsides more frequent in English League matches than those on the Continent . And the ball is often kept flying overhead , drawing beautiful curves in the sky . Such games are quite pleasing to the eye .

Www , man ! In the nineteenth century , working conditions were appalling , with workers being forced to work ten , twelve , and fourteen hours a day . Support for the eight-hour work day movement was growing rapidly , despite the indifference and hostility of many union leaders , and by April 1886 , 250,000 workers were involved in the May Day movement . Previous legislative attempts to improve working conditions had failed , so labor organizers took drastic measures . They passed a resolution stating that eight hours would constitute a legal day ' s work . And , on May First 1886 , the resolution took effect .

A Westerner said to his Chinese friend . " Chinese people slurp when drinking soup . It ' s disgusting . " The Chinese friend replied , " Westerners make a lot of noise licking their fingers when eating . It ' s even worse . " Everyone has his own habits , but these habits are not very good . The noise often spoils other people ' s appetite .
Everyone has his own habits , but these habits are not very good . The noise often spoils other people ' s appetite . I attended a course on table manners while I was in the United States . Some of the things we learnt included how to place the napkin and utensils and how to pass the bread . Before each course , the teacher would ask if we wanted to learn the Continental European way or the American way . We always said " American way . " It ' s amazing that everyone is so used to their own table manners . What is the Chinese way ?

The westerners use knives and forks to eat so it is complicated . The Chinese use a pair of chopsticks and eat out of the same plate . I assume it is less complicated , right ? Not really . I did some research about Chinese table manners . The important rule is to remain silent while eating . Of course , this refers to family meals only . Not talking over meals is supposed to be good for the health . It is impolite if people do not talk to each other during a social party . The table arrangements and serving order for a social party are equally complicated . Each dish should be placed in the correct position . When fish is served , the tail should be pointing at the guest because tail meat is supposed to be tasty . If it is in winter , the stomach should face the right-hand side of the guest because that portion of the fish is very rich in winter . Each dish should be commenced by the eldest person who is seated at the head of the table . The diners should sit close to the table so food won ' t drop on their cloths . No noise should be made when chewing . No one should move food back to the communal plate even if he doesn ' t like it . One should drink soup slowly and is not supposed to make a lot of noise . All these table manners are very similar to Western habits .

All these table manners are very similar to Western habits . It seems that people share the same basic sense of etiquette regardless of their background . Apart from the different tools used for eating we seem to follow the same principles . We do not let inappropriate manners spoil other people ' s appetite . Westerners like to say , " bon appetite " before meals which is one way to suggest " mind your table manners . " Is there such an expression in Chinese ?
It depends on where you are and what position you are in . For instance , if you are in an elevator and you smile , you will make other takers uncomfortable . That ' s an exception . But I am fed up with those who keep a straight face in front of me .

In 1986 , a New Zealander Hackett popularized Bungee as a commercialized sport of mass entertainment . This sport is very challenging . It is a test of people's psychological ability of endurance . Especially when descending , as if they are watching a fast forward tape and when they bounce back , they sway around . The timid people will shrink back at the sight of it . Even if they jump off , they find it hard to avoid screaming with closed eyes . No wonder people give the title ' brave ' to anyone who jumps off . You see , the bungee participants take a deep breath when they stand at the starting spot and then , like diving , their heads are over heels and they jump off into the realm of the combination of heaven and earth . The wind roars at their ears and their bodies rapidly descend . They do not even have enough time to do several gymnastic movements and they are rebounded to the upper air by the cord .

Entrusting life to the care of a rope indeed requires infinite courage . A young French fellow recalled his first bungee experience and said , " When I fastened the cord and walked to the platform , I was extremely nervous . When I looked down , I was nervous even more . If the cord had broken , I would be knocked to ' bakemeat ' . However , I knew my worries were unwanted . I was afraid if I retreated others might say something about me . I had to harden my heart and impose my head downward . I only felt wind wiring at my ears . My body rapidly descended . I thought that after only seven or eight seconds I was rebounded to upper air by the cord . In fact it was 30 seconds . Maybe because of my nervousness , I only felt seven or eight seconds . When rebounding to the high altitude , I felt a sudden sense of relief . I did not feel nervous very much , but very comfortable . "

How do you get along with your boss ? I had a terrific working relationship with my boss , even though we are very different people . Because I've had a number of bosses , I've come to realize that to make things work , you have to understand what's important to your boss . Then you have to do everything you can to support him ( or her ) . It's natural to think about your own agenda first , but if you help your boss , Ifs likely to move your agenda ahead at the same time . My last boss was great in that regard , she appreciated my efforts and rewarded me when I helped her accomplish her goals .

You know , I ' m tired of hearing all this news about the economic downturn , the inevitable recession , people stuffing their money in their mattresses . I look at this as an opportunity . This is a chance for me to get a jump start on building my nest egg . I don ' t know about that ; with all the uncertainty in the markets right now , it would be a very unwise decision to invest . I don ' t know if you ' re aware son , but there has been a lot of turmoil in the markets recently . There have already been half a million layoffs in the last few months , and we have no idea how the proposed stimulus package will impact the economy . There ' s just too much instability .

China is now a member of world trade organization . As a member of TO , China will have to make some changes in its economic policies so that it can follow the routines practiced by other TO members . Is it fair to China , do you think ? It's a hard question , but I'm sure the reexamination of China's economic policies in the past may lead us to a right answer to the question . After the establishment of new China , our government employed numerous economics policies to stimulate the growth of China's economy . These policies , however , favored our domestic enterprises and protected them from international competition and these policies have contributed a lot to the rapid growth of both China economy and our domestic enterprises . After China's entry into TO , Chinese domestic enterprises will have to compete with their foreign counterparts . This new situation entails some changes of Chinese economic policies . These changes will spur Chinese enterprises to strengthen their competitiveness in the long run .

Does the principle also apply to domestic enterprise of different ownerships ?

Every day , I wake up and head straight for the shower . Every second day , I wash my hair . If it ' s a hair-washing day , I frequently need to wash my hair twice because it gets really oily . Then I usually put in a conditioner and have to rinse that out too . Because my hair is so long , I seldom manage to take a shower in under twenty minutes . Afterwards , I often put on a pot of coffee and get dressed while I wait for it to brew . I take a long time to get dressed in the morning . Every now and then I remember to choose my outfit the night before , but usually I do it in the morning . In all , getting dressed takes about half an hour , at which time my hair is now semi-dry so then I have to style my hair . From time to time I ' ll put my hair up , butoften times I bloody it straight . And then , because of the texture of my hair , I regularly have to flat-iron it to keep it from frizzing . That ' s another twenty minutes or so . After that , I have my daily makeup routine .

A comparison of the quality of our products with that of rival goods will show you that ours is far superior . It's true yours are of better quality . But your price is still on the high side even if we take quality into consideration . How about meeting each other half way ?

Hi , Lucy , you are very popular with people around you , what are your tricks ? Thank you for saying so . I don ' t know , probably because I like sharing my experience and knowledge with them .

There are so many environment problems in the world today . Do you think we can really solve them all or will destroy the world ? I hope that world leaders can get together and agree on a plan for action , but I doubt it ' ll happen before it ' s too late . We need to solve the problem of air pollution before we destroy the atmosphere . There ' s lots of clean , modern technology , but companies in developed countries say it ' s expensive . Developing countries put more emphasis on economic development than on environment protection .

We should also remember that the forests are an important natural habitat for thousands of species of animal and plant life .

Aha ! Now I understand . You were trying to buy stolen goods on the sidewalk . So , what I think is , you deserve to get cheated ! C'mon , don't blame me ! I thought it was a new camera . We could use it . We were even thinking about buying a camera . I don't understand how he could have such a perfect-looking box . That's no problem . He just has a friend who works in a shop that can do plastic wrap . That's easy . And probably it's the same shop he got the boxes from . Maybe his friend works in an electronics store . They sell video cameras there . Probably they had a couple video camera boxes lying around . So they get the idea of wrapping bricks to sell to fools like you . Twenty dollars a brick . That's a good profit if they can sell enough bricks .
Can you tell me where the supply shop is ? Sure . It ' s on basement level one . Turn right when you get off the elevator . Great ! Thanks a lot !

All the journalists and photographers are there . Thirdly , it give them a chance to show what they would like to see people wearing . You meant it ' s an expression of their fantasies ? Yes . I think the designers are saying that these clothes are what they would like to see people wear if those people weren ' t concerned with what other people might think .

That's right . After their school day is over , they go to a special institute to study math or English . They are very serious about learning over there . Hmm .

I thought that maybe kids in Taiwan study too much . But now that I've worked there , and taught them , I feel it is a good thing . Their parents are very concerned about their education . More than American parents are . And that is good . American kids don't study enough .

American kids don't study enough . Asian cultures value learning very much . I know that . So it was interesting for me to see parents very concerned about education . They would come to me after the class and ask how their son or daughter was doing . I don't think that's a bad thing . I think it's a good thing . In America , too many parents don't pay attention .

What is your most preferred training method ? Well , I prefer active rather than passive training . For example , I like the training offered by a financial software company from which we bought the newest updated virgin . They sent the programmers to demonstrate how to do and then ask us to practice . All employees receiving this training were in the same meeting room , so we could communicate with each other . We had a lot of fun learning together . It helps to build up the work relation among colleagues . Well , that is also very efficient , right ?

Did you hear ? The state is thinking of legalizing gambling in our city ! Soon we are gonna have amazing hotels and casinos here which will be good for our business ! Are you serious ? Gambling is a vice industry built on deception and fed by the intentional exploitation of human weakness for the sole purpose of monetary gain ! It disgusts me . What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ?
Are you serious ? Gambling is a vice industry built on deception and fed by the intentional exploitation of human weakness for the sole purpose of monetary gain ! It disgusts me . What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ? Well , to begin with , Gambling is addictive , ruins marriages , destroys families and bankrupts communities . Once you are addicted it is very difficult to stop . People have lost their houses , cars and been left out on the street after becoming addicted . Secondly , it exploits because men become addicted to gambling most often because of the action and risk . Women gamble to escape , and senior citizens will start gambling for the social interaction . Underage gamblers often start gambling on sports with friends and then illegal bookies .

I Don't know how they do it ! Our competitors have undercut us by 10 % percent on the price of our latest model . There is no way will be able to compete against that . We're barely breaking even with the present prices . These price wars are disastrous for our bottom line . If they're charging 10 % less than we are , we've got to find a way to lower our price while keeping our profit . Profits are almost nonexistent now , we can't beat their price . How do they keep their price so low ?

I do feel like a trip to Florida on such a gloomy day in New York , to enjoy the sunshine while lying on the beaches of Florida . That's a great idea . It's the best season for tourists in Florida .

Tiffany , why are more and more people turning to the Web to find a mate ? I think that , as more people use the Internet for both work and pleasure , it makes more sense as a tool to connect with people , and the stigma of meeting someone online is reduced . There are actually special sites for people looking to date within their specific ethnic group and age group . But how should you screen potential mates ? Do you suggest talking to them on the phone right away or communicating via e-mail ?

There are actually special sites for people looking to date within their specific ethnic group and age group . But how should you screen potential mates ? Do you suggest talking to them on the phone right away or communicating via e-mail ? I would say do not make the e-mail exchange too long .

What do you think of the way people use and treat animals ? I think most people treat animals well , but we are often cruel to animals . When we raise animals for food , the conditions they live in are often poor . Perhaps people should stop eating animals . We could grow more crops .

Hello there , welcome to Wine World . Let me know if I can help you out at all . Um , yes , please , I could really use some help . I'm going over to my boss'house for dinner tonight and don't know what kind of wine I should bring . OK , do you know what kind of food will be served ?
Um , yes , please , I could really use some help . I'm going over to my boss'house for dinner tonight and don't know what kind of wine I should bring . OK , do you know what kind of food will be served ? Well , his wife is Japanese . He said she makes really good sushi .
OK , do you know what kind of food will be served ? Well , his wife is Japanese . He said she makes really good sushi . Hmm , that's a bit of a challenge . Sushi is notoriously difficult to pair with wine . Well , let's see . have to be a white wine , of course .
Well , his wife is Japanese . He said she makes really good sushi . Hmm , that's a bit of a challenge . Sushi is notoriously difficult to pair with wine . Well , let's see . have to be a white wine , of course . Why ? Wouldn't a red wine go well with sushi ?
Hmm , that's a bit of a challenge . Sushi is notoriously difficult to pair with wine . Well , let's see . have to be a white wine , of course . Why ? Wouldn't a red wine go well with sushi ? No , I don't think so . Sushi is a very delicately flavored food , and red wine would be a jarring contrast . You need a white wine , which has more subtle flavors , to complement the fish .
Why ? Wouldn't a red wine go well with sushi ? No , I don't think so . Sushi is a very delicately flavored food , and red wine would be a jarring contrast . You need a white wine , which has more subtle flavors , to complement the fish . I see . So should I get a bottle of Chardonnay ? That's a white wine , right ?
No , I don't think so . Sushi is a very delicately flavored food , and red wine would be a jarring contrast . You need a white wine , which has more subtle flavors , to complement the fish . I see . So should I get a bottle of Chardonnay ? That's a white wine , right ? Yes , Chardonnay is a white wine , but I'm not sure it'd be your best bet . Chardonnay is one of the more fullbodied whites , and tends to be a bit oaky . I'd suggest that you go for something brighter , like this Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand .

Yes , Chardonnay is a white wine , but I'm not sure it'd be your best bet . Chardonnay is one of the more fullbodied whites , and tends to be a bit oaky . I'd suggest that you go for something brighter , like this Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand . Sauvignon Blanc ? What's that ? That's another varietal , or type of grape , just like Chardonnay .
Sauvignon Blanc ? What's that ? That's another varietal , or type of grape , just like Chardonnay . Let's see . The label says it's got " attractive citrus and grassy aromas that give way to crisp , mineral flavors and a bonedry finish . Serve chilled . " Oh , no , how long will it take to chill the wine ? I'm on my way to the dinner now .

I'm on my way to the dinner now . It's OK , don't worry , we'll just choose a wine from the cooler . We don't have quite as extensive a selection over here , but ... this Rhone Valley white would be lovely .

It's OK , don't worry , we'll just choose a wine from the cooler . We don't have quite as extensive a selection over here , but ... this Rhone Valley white would be lovely . All right . What varietal is that ? Well , this is a French wine , so they don't always specify the varietal on the label . The French believe that the soil a grape is grown in is one of the most important factors in the final flavor of the wine . This wine is probably a blend of a few different types of grapes , mostly Viognier , I'd guess .

This wine is probably a blend of a few different types of grapes , mostly Viognier , I'd guess . And you think this is a good wine ? Yes , this is one of our best-sellers .

It's your federal income tax . And then there's Social Security and Medicare , which are both federal programs to help you out after you retire or if you were unable to work .

Thanks for inviting me to your friend ' s wedding . I was surprised to hear the bride and groom talking to each other that way during the marriage ceremony . Is that common ?

Tomorrow will be my first day at work , what do you think I should be wearing ? Well , if you want to look professional , serious and more conservative , a blue dress , white shirt and not-too-high shoes would be the best choice . But sometimes , very formal clothes will keep you at a distance from your colleagues . It depends on the company ' s dress code . Indeed , I found most of the employees dress casually when I went to the interview . Only the manager was in suit and tie and he just came back from a ceremony . It seems that their dress code is not that formal . Probably , I should put on car key and simple shirt .

Do you think discrimination against women in the work force is still prevalent even today ? From my own experience as a career woman , I would have to say that while things are getting better now than they used to be , it is still a widespread problem .

Or are there more issues coming into play ?

Society is changing , but there is still a glass ceiling for women in many career tracks . do you think the glass ceiling phenomena is because of traditional social customs ? Or are there more issues coming into play ? I think it's a very complicated issue .

Men have power , so it's easier for them to stay in power .

I like small towns . But many roads are very narrow . Not always , and there're also few cars !
I think it is easier to buy a car than to maintain it . What ' s worse , I just don ' t trust those vehicle maintenance shops . Sometimes , they overcharge or don ' t build those parts I have been paying for . Last week , they even tried to persuade me to buy new parts which really need not to be changed . You know , my car is just half a year old and also good brand . I was just wondering about all these . There are such shops living on selling parts . I don ' t like their service either . All they want is your money . But in the long run , they will be losing costumers . Anyway , car service business is new in China . We all have to control what they are doing . Otherwise , they will not improve . Is it possible to make a compliant call to some organization what it ' s someone gets rip-off .

With the extension of railways and highways , and the improvement of safety and capacity of airplanes , ships and boats have been giving place to trains , planes and automobiles .

You should have seen the T . V . show that was on last night , the topic it covered was really interesting , animal rights . Do you really believe in that ?

I believe that governments should prohibit activities like poaching .

I like chess better than xiangqi . And you ? For my part , xiangqi . Maybe it's because my girlfriend is Chinese . I think chess is more reasonable . You see , each side has eight pawns , a larger number than that of the soldiers in xiangqi . A true battle should be like that . Soldiers should outnumber the commanders .

A true battle should be like that . Soldiers should outnumber the commanders . Quite right . And unlike the soldiers in xiangqi , the pawns in chess can promote once they reach the furthest rank . It is very agreeable to grant merits to people with good performance .

Soldiers should outnumber the commanders . Quite right . And unlike the soldiers in xiangqi , the pawns in chess can promote once they reach the furthest rank . It is very agreeable to grant merits to people with good performance . Correct ! Another contrast is the rules for the general and the king . It seems the general or marshal in xiangqi is much too incompetent . They are required to stay in the palace , waiting to be checked and fleeing for life under the cover of the guards . Look at the king in chess , he is much more capable .

Yeah , and though the king in chess doesn't have bodyguards , he has a queen who is the most powerful piece . I think this demonstrates the relatively higher social status of aristocratic women in medieval Europe than in China .

I think it is easier to buy a car than to maintain it . What ' s worse , I just don ' t trust those vehicle maintenance shops . Sometimes , they overcharge or don ' t build those parts I have been paying for . Last week , they even tried to persuade me to buy new parts which really need not to be changed . You know , my car is just half a year old and also good brand . I was just wondering about all these . There are such shops living on selling parts . I don ' t like their service either . All they want is your money . But in the long run , they will be losing costumers . Anyway , car service business is new in China . We all have to control what they are doing . Otherwise , they will not improve . Is it possible to make a compliant call to some organization what it ' s someone gets rip-off .

Could you tell me something about the Mid-Autumn Festival ? I find it also very interesting . OK . It falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month . It is said that there is a beautiful goddess Chang'E on the moon who had eaten some sort of elixir and had to depart her husband . She is always expecting to see her husband again . So , later we have the traditional idea that when there is the full moon , it is time for the family members to come together . So , I understand why people eat moon cakes on that day .

Did you hear ? The state is thinking of legalizing gambling in our city ! Soon we are gonna have amazing hotels and casinos here which will be good for our business ! Are you serious ? Gambling is a vice industry built on deception and fed by the intentional exploitation of human weakness for the sole purpose of monetary gain ! It disgusts me . What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ?
Are you serious ? Gambling is a vice industry built on deception and fed by the intentional exploitation of human weakness for the sole purpose of monetary gain ! It disgusts me . What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ? Well , to begin with , Gambling is addictive , ruins marriages , destroys families and bankrupts communities . Once you are addicted it is very difficult to stop . People have lost their houses , cars and been left out on the street after becoming addicted . Secondly , it exploits because men become addicted to gambling most often because of the action and risk . Women gamble to escape , and senior citizens will start gambling for the social interaction . Underage gamblers often start gambling on sports with friends and then illegal bookies .

During the last two years , there has been a great increase in goods stolen abroad . If they steal the entire package , that would be theft . So they don't do that . Generally , thieves open the case and take part of the contents out . Then fill the case so that the gross weight will be the same . If the goods are received in apparent good order and condition , the steamship company doesn ' t have liability for pilferage . How do we protect ourselves ?

Since China was open to the outside world , its trade forms have become much more flexible . One of these commonly used forms is co-production . Would you please do a bit explanation of it , Mr . Walker ? Well , under this arrangement two parties cooperate to manufacture a product or a category of products , for example , machine tools for export . Each party produces and supplies a part of the components and parts ; one party is a Chinese enterprise , the other , an overseas firm . Most probably , the foreign counterpart contributes technology and equipment , and sometimes , parts and components , while the Chinese enterprises factory building , labor and other resources to the cooperative production . They join hands and fulfill orders together by an agreement or a contract . I suppose that the assembling of these components and parts , particularly the marketing of the finished products should take place in China .

And so , I just wanted to check in with you and find out where we are with this project . As you know , you ' Ve missed a fairly significant deadline last week , and this will negativity impact the team ' s ability to move forward with the next stages of this project . I know , I ' m really sorry that I missed the deadline . But really , it wasn ' t my fault . You see , we had all of these unexpected technical problems at the last minute , and that I couldn ' t get into the database and extract the kind of information that I needed for the data analysis . You know , if the tech guys would have done their job and kept the ARM stable , then I wouldn ' t have missed my deadline . Oh , come on ! An excuse like that is tantamount to lying . You ' re essentially blaming the tech team for your time management issues , rather than accepting responsibility for the fact that you were procrastinating for the past two weeks .

And you know , with everything I ' Ve got going on now , I can ' t afford to waste time dealing with technical problems . I ' Ve got a lot on my plate and there are only twenty-four hours in a day ...

In China at least , coffee is often associated with an exotic , well-to-do bourgeois lifestyle . Coffee is often considered a hobby of the well-educated , middle-class people . Maybe that's why some young chaps often spend a whole afternoon in a coffee bar , surfing the net or just typewriting something with laptop . While they are savoring a coffee at a leisured pace , they are actually showing off ! Yes . Behind a lifestyle , there is a culture . Young people easily become blind worshippers of a Westernized life . While they may not really like coffee , they think it desirable and enviable to be lavish with money in those high-consumption places .

We need to bear in mind in the first place that tea , rather than coffee , has been the most popular drink for the Chinese people . Well . Tea represents another facet of popular culture . While a coffee bar is usually quiet and resonates with soft , elegant music , a teahouse is often a noisy , crowded , public space . People visit teahouses to associate with others , playing chess , chatting , or simply listening to operas .

It is not easy to find an old-fashioned teahouse that suits the ordinary people's spending power either . Teahouses of today all feature a cozy , comfortable environment , and high-quality services , but can easily cost you a good deal -- just like a coffee bar .

I'm reading an interesting report on Mars . Oh , what does it say ? Does it say water could still exist under the surface of Mars ? Absolutely ! It says there is water on Mars buried beneath the surface . It's just a matter of how deep it is .
Oh , what does it say ? Does it say water could still exist under the surface of Mars ? Absolutely ! It says there is water on Mars buried beneath the surface . It's just a matter of how deep it is . Then could the soil on Mars somehow be fertile enough to Groh simple plants ?
Absolutely ! It says there is water on Mars buried beneath the surface . It's just a matter of how deep it is . Then could the soil on Mars somehow be fertile enough to Groh simple plants ? The soil would need quite a bit of fertilizer to grow anything . And it would need to be protected from the UV radiation .
Then could the soil on Mars somehow be fertile enough to Groh simple plants ? The soil would need quite a bit of fertilizer to grow anything . And it would need to be protected from the UV radiation . Actually , we are doing a project in school that involves landing a ship and staying on Mars for an extended period of time . Does NASA have any type of portable habitats that could be used to stay on the planet ?

One of the most exciting things about Mars is that there could have bean life on it . What are your personal opinions on the life on Mars theory ? Well , I'm not really an expert in this area , but my understanding is that anything is possible . It's just that it is so hard to determine what went on 4 . 5 billion years ago .

Our housing problem is a highly complicated issue . It is true . I think we should change some policies . Right . Like our LPF program . The mortgage size is linked with the amount of savings households have accumulated on their LPF accounts .
It is true . I think we should change some policies . Right . Like our LPF program . The mortgage size is linked with the amount of savings households have accumulated on their LPF accounts . Indeed , it's unfair . Households with higher salaries receive larger LPF contributions and thus qualify for larger loans . Lower-income households , on the other hand , can only get smaller loans , or perhaps nothing if they could not afford to purchase any housing .

It ' s an article about language . It talks about the idea of having a single global language . It seems that English already is the main global language . Does the article suggest that there should be an artificial language like Esperanto as the world language . Actually , it suggest English . The main argument is that English is already being studied as a second language in most countries-china , India , mexico , Nigeria , Pakistan , and japan . So beginning again with a language like Esperanto would be wasteful . The second argument is that English is used in modern technology far more that any other language . Most emails are sent in English and the vast majority of website use English .

Based on the survey report , they will lodge a clam for compensation .

Welcome back movie lovers to another Premier Movie Review . My name is Richard Clarke and I am joined today by the very erudite DavidWatson . Thank you Dick . Today we are going to talk about the movie Lion King . Tell me Dave , what is your impression of this film ? Well , I think this film is simply a fable , depicting man ' s eternal greed for power , and in my opinion , it ' s a very fine film . Even despite the accusations of plagiarism traditional folk tales from other countries . The musical score was amazing , the animation was very well done , and the story was simply enchanting .

Even despite the accusations of plagiarism traditional folk tales from other countries . The musical score was amazing , the animation was very well done , and the story was simply enchanting . I think otherwise . Even though the animation was technically strong , and as you say , the score and songs performed by Elton John were great , the film lacks a certain originality ; it lacked heart . And I would dare to say , it was too predictable .

And I would dare to say , it was too predictable . Predictable ! How ! Come on Dick , It ' s a G-rated movie ! It ' s for the kids ! It ' s not a thriller ! Well , that ' s just it . It did have some very dramatic and intense scenes For example when Mufasal dies , or the dark , grim portrayal of Scar . Even so , the film is linear . Mufasal dies , Simba runs away thinking it ' s his fault . Falls in love and returns to retake what is rightfully his . It ' s just too cliche .

Mufasal dies , Simba runs away thinking it ' s his fault . Falls in love and returns to retake what is rightfully his . It ' s just too cliche . How can it be cliche ? It ' s a fable !

Diana , in your opinion , which is more important , IQ or EQ ? Why are you asking me the strange question , Jerry ? I watched the movie Forrest Gump last night . And the question just lined in my mind .
Why are you asking me the strange question , Jerry ? I watched the movie Forrest Gump last night . And the question just lined in my mind . Well . I think IQ matters more . But it won't work without EQ .
I watched the movie Forrest Gump last night . And the question just lined in my mind . Well . I think IQ matters more . But it won't work without EQ . Why ? You seem pretty sure about it .

That ' s true , but what if one comes across some difficulties . He must rely on his EQ to deal with them . Yes , Jerry , can you share your understanding of EQ ? I think it is independent of IQ and plays a prominent role in deciding the way we live our lives .
Yes , Jerry , can you share your understanding of EQ ? I think it is independent of IQ and plays a prominent role in deciding the way we live our lives . Quite right . Have you noticed that a high IQ is not a must for one's success ?
I think it is independent of IQ and plays a prominent role in deciding the way we live our lives . Quite right . Have you noticed that a high IQ is not a must for one's success ? Just as Forrest ?
Quite right . Have you noticed that a high IQ is not a must for one's success ? Just as Forrest ? Yes , his IQ is high enough for him to embrace the success as long as he can manage his EQ .
I'm really fed up with Larry ! He's the biggest airhead I've ever met . He always makes careless mistakes , and he's a pain to work with . You shouldn't be so negative . You ' ll always have some co-workers that are harder to work with than others . But if you are negative and start name-calling in the office , it will make a bad working environment for everybody . You only say that because you don't have to work with him . The people in your department seem so capable and nice to be around . Take Mary for example . She ' s smart and enthusiastic . I've never met anyone as cheery as she is .
You shouldn't be so negative . You ' ll always have some co-workers that are harder to work with than others .

The people in your department seem so capable and nice to be around . Take Mary for example . She ' s smart and enthusiastic . I've never met anyone as cheery as she is .

Did you watch the Premiership last night ? Yes , I watched United play Chelsea . What a fierce battle ! allay were engaged in intensive pressing and tackling in midfield . Well , it was not like a normal English League match . No , it wasn't . Rather , it looked like a Bundesliga match , where physical contact is so frequent . English League teams are apt to pass the midfield quickly with long passes . It seems to me English soccer players are very gentlemanly . As Diego Maradona spoke teasingly , they often knew only chasing hard after the ball , but forgot to steal it .

It seems to me English soccer players are very gentlemanly . As Diego Maradona spoke teasingly , they often knew only chasing hard after the ball , but forgot to steal it . Haha . That's probably why slide tackle and fouls are less common , and offsides more frequent in English League matches than those on the Continent . And the ball is often kept flying overhead , drawing beautiful curves in the sky . Such games are quite pleasing to the eye .

Alright everyone settle down . Let ' s get started . As you know , an important aspect of becoming a good citizen is understanding the genesis of our legal system .

No ! It is not considered to be a national holiday here in the US , but in other countries it is . Www , man ! In the nineteenth century , working conditions were appalling , with workers being forced to work ten , twelve , and fourteen hours a day . Support for the eight-hour work day movement was growing rapidly , despite the indifference and hostility of many union leaders , and by April 1886 , 250,000 workers were involved in the May Day movement . Previous legislative attempts to improve working conditions had failed , so labor organizers took drastic measures . They passed a resolution stating that eight hours would constitute a legal day ' s work . And , on May First 1886 , the resolution took effect .

Actually , the business trip itself was very successful . We arrived on time , we had nice conversations and we settled some important issues for the next year . Sounds quite fruitful , why do you call it still a nightmare then ? Well , the air line lost my luggage on the return flight and then I lost my carry on bag when I was tackling with the officers in charge . I left the airport three hours later than I expected and then I was caught in a traffic jam . When I finally got home , I was totally exhausted . But I found the elevator was out of service due to a blackout .

A Westerner said to his Chinese friend . " Chinese people slurp when drinking soup . It ' s disgusting . " The Chinese friend replied , " Westerners make a lot of noise licking their fingers when eating . It ' s even worse . " Everyone has his own habits , but these habits are not very good . The noise often spoils other people ' s appetite . I attended a course on table manners while I was in the United States . Some of the things we learnt included how to place the napkin and utensils and how to pass the bread . Before each course , the teacher would ask if we wanted to learn the Continental European way or the American way . We always said " American way . " It ' s amazing that everyone is so used to their own table manners . What is the Chinese way ?

The Chinese use a pair of chopsticks and eat out of the same plate . I assume it is less complicated , right ?

The Chinese use a pair of chopsticks and eat out of the same plate . I assume it is less complicated , right ? Not really . I did some research about Chinese table manners . The important rule is to remain silent while eating . Of course , this refers to family meals only . Not talking over meals is supposed to be good for the health . It is impolite if people do not talk to each other during a social party . The table arrangements and serving order for a social party are equally complicated . Each dish should be placed in the correct position . When fish is served , the tail should be pointing at the guest because tail meat is supposed to be tasty . If it is in winter , the stomach should face the right-hand side of the guest because that portion of the fish is very rich in winter . Each dish should be commenced by the eldest person who is seated at the head of the table . The diners should sit close to the table so food won ' t drop on their cloths . No noise should be made when chewing . No one should move food back to the communal plate even if he doesn ' t like it . One should drink soup slowly and is not supposed to make a lot of noise . All these table manners are very similar to Western habits .

All these table manners are very similar to Western habits . It seems that people share the same basic sense of etiquette regardless of their background . Apart from the different tools used for eating we seem to follow the same principles . We do not let inappropriate manners spoil other people ' s appetite . Westerners like to say , " bon appetite " before meals which is one way to suggest " mind your table manners . " Is there such an expression in Chinese ?
It depends on where you are and what position you are in . For instance , if you are in an elevator and you smile , you will make other takers uncomfortable . That ' s an exception .

I mean , they smile for no reason at all .

Return on investment ? How can you have a return on this kind of investment ? Can you really calculate the value of these training programs ? Sure ! It's not a real figure , of course .

In 1986 , a New Zealander Hackett popularized Bungee as a commercialized sport of mass entertainment . This sport is very challenging . It is a test of people's psychological ability of endurance . Especially when descending , as if they are watching a fast forward tape and when they bounce back , they sway around . The timid people will shrink back at the sight of it . Even if they jump off , they find it hard to avoid screaming with closed eyes . No wonder people give the title ' brave ' to anyone who jumps off . You see , the bungee participants take a deep breath when they stand at the starting spot and then , like diving , their heads are over heels and they jump off into the realm of the combination of heaven and earth . The wind roars at their ears and their bodies rapidly descend . They do not even have enough time to do several gymnastic movements and they are rebounded to the upper air by the cord . Entrusting life to the care of a rope indeed requires infinite courage .

The wind roars at their ears and their bodies rapidly descend . They do not even have enough time to do several gymnastic movements and they are rebounded to the upper air by the cord . Entrusting life to the care of a rope indeed requires infinite courage . A young French fellow recalled his first bungee experience and said , " When I fastened the cord and walked to the platform , I was extremely nervous . When I looked down , I was nervous even more . If the cord had broken , I would be knocked to ' bakemeat ' . However , I knew my worries were unwanted . I was afraid if I retreated others might say something about me . I had to harden my heart and impose my head downward . I only felt wind wiring at my ears . My body rapidly descended . I thought that after only seven or eight seconds I was rebounded to upper air by the cord . In fact it was 30 seconds . Maybe because of my nervousness , I only felt seven or eight seconds . When rebounding to the high altitude , I felt a sudden sense of relief . I did not feel nervous very much , but very comfortable . "

How do I apply to an American university ? You should go to the library to find some information about American universities , and write to the Admission Office . Then the Admission Office will send you application forms and other related materials . From experience , many applicants write to several universities instead of just one . I was told that it took a lot of time and effort to apply .

Then the Admission Office will send you application forms and other related materials . From experience , many applicants write to several universities instead of just one . I was told that it took a lot of time and effort to apply . That is true . I'll list for you the requirements of almost all the universities . First of all , you need official transcripts of your undergraduate work , three letters of recommendation from your professors who know your competence , and the official TOEFL ( Test of English as a Foreign Language ) score ( It's usually 550 ) . Then you need a financial guarantee , and an application fee of 25 dollars .

We ' Ve been over this a thousand times . The data is irrefutable ! Look , we ' Ve done extensive research , built studies , and read the literature , and there is conclusive evidence to support my theory ! Horowitz , I beg to differ .

To draw a definitive conclusion based on that data would be misleading That is preposterous !

Where's Bill ? The ambassador is already here . The meeting is set to start at 9 am . He's late again . Traffic is probably holding him up . You know , he commutes from the suburbs . It's not easy commuting every day . We should cut him some slack . Even though the traffic is bumper-to-bumper out there , I don't think it's heavy traffic that makes Bill late . He takes the train , remember ?

How do you get along with your boss ? I had a terrific working relationship with my boss , even though we are very different people . Because I've had a number of bosses , I've come to realize that to make things work , you have to understand what's important to your boss . Then you have to do everything you can to support him ( or her ) . It's natural to think about your own agenda first , but if you help your boss , Ifs likely to move your agenda ahead at the same time . My last boss was great in that regard , she appreciated my efforts and rewarded me when I helped her accomplish her goals . What do you think is important in your work ?

There are advertisements everywhere here in hong kong . The city is so bright at night , with all the neon signs . I like it . It makes the city feel alive .

Carry - on bags must fit in the over-head compartment or under your seat . That bag is clearly too big .
What ? Why ! I am taking an intercontinental flight ! I ' m flying sixteen thousand CMS ! How am I supposed to only take two , twenty kilo bags ? That ' s absurd ! I am sorry , sir , there ' s nothing I can do . You cannot board the flight with that large bag either . Carry - on bags must fit in the over-head compartment or under your seat . That bag is clearly too big . Now I see . You charge next to nothing for an international ticket , but when it comes to charging for any other small thing , you charge an arm and a leg ! So tell me , miss , how much will I have to pay for all of this .

What is the most unexpected thing you experienced in space ? I wasn't quite prepared for the view of the Earth as we left . It was just awe-inspiring . It emerged from just a slightly curved horizon to a whole Earth , where you could look across oceans and continents in a single glance . I wasn't quite prepared for that . It's inevitably etched in my memory . When viewing the Earth from space , do you feel detached from humanity or more a part of the totality of humankind ?

It's inevitably etched in my memory . When viewing the Earth from space , do you feel detached from humanity or more a part of the totality of humankind ? Detached . You're literally detached from one planet , captured by another . Your only link to reality is the Earth out there ; fortunate - 1y , it stays in view the whole time .

There're a lot of suspicions that the International Space Station is never going to become reality . Is it going to be some future project that never happens ? I believe it's certainly for real . It without question has suffered a lot of delays . But there's hardware sitting on the pad right now and it's due to go off in December . It is a reality . It has just taken longer to get literally off the ground .

Do you think that this Shuttle mission will reignite the public's passion for space and get us to Mars sooner ?

China is now a member of world trade organization . As a member of TO , China will have to make some changes in its economic policies so that it can follow the routines practiced by other TO members . Is it fair to China , do you think ? It's a hard question , but I'm sure the reexamination of China's economic policies in the past may lead us to a right answer to the question . After the establishment of new China , our government employed numerous economics policies to stimulate the growth of China's economy . These policies , however , favored our domestic enterprises and protected them from international competition and these policies have contributed a lot to the rapid growth of both China economy and our domestic enterprises . After China's entry into TO , Chinese domestic enterprises will have to compete with their foreign counterparts . This new situation entails some changes of Chinese economic policies . These changes will spur Chinese enterprises to strengthen their competitiveness in the long run . We can infer that the non-discrimination principle is one of the most important principles of TO agreement . This principle requires equal treatment of domestic and foreign enterprise . Does the principle also apply to domestic enterprise of different ownerships ?
Hey , your Chinese is coming along ! You think ? Yeah . It ' s a lot better than mine .
You think ? Yeah . It ' s a lot better than mine . But I still get stuck on the different tones . It drives me crazy .

It ' s a skill . What can I say ? I don ' t know why , I just have a long routine . Please explain because it makes no sense to me . How can a girl ' s routine be so complicated ? You get up , you shower , you get dressed , you brush your teeth , you ' re out the door . Half an hour , tops . Jacob , you have the luxury of having a haircut that rarely needs styling . I don ' t . I have to set aside about an hour and a half to get ready in the mornings . Every day , I wake up and head straight for the shower . Every second day , I wash my hair . If it ' s a hair-washing day , I frequently need to wash my hair twice because it gets really oily . Then I usually put in a conditioner and have to rinse that out too . Because my hair is so long , I seldom manage to take a shower in under twenty minutes . Afterwards , I often put on a pot of coffee and get dressed while I wait for it to brew . I take a long time to get dressed in the morning . Every now and then I remember to choose my outfit the night before , but usually I do it in the morning . In all , getting dressed takes about half an hour , at which time my hair is now semi-dry so then I have to style my hair . From time to time I ' ll put my hair up , butoften times I bloody it straight . And then , because of the texture of my hair , I regularly have to flat-iron it to keep it from frizzing . That ' s another twenty minutes or so . After that , I have my daily makeup routine .

Did you see the way that Brian came to work yesterday ? Ever since he came back from that conference in Silicon Valley , he's been coming to work dressed in jeans and sweatshirts . It's like he's decided to make himself at home in his office . I don't know how long it'll take before the management talks to him about it . He was really influenced by the way they do things on the west coast . I guess the working atmosphere is a lot more relaxed and casual in California . It comes from the information technology industry .. there isn't such a large division between home and office , so people want to work in the clothes they feel more relaxed in . Maybe so , but it seems kind of strange , which the rest of us in white shirts , dark suites , and ties . It's not as bad as that ... We are allowed to wear more casual jackets and trousers . Besides , didn't you hear what Brian found on his desk this morning ?

Is there a lot of crime in your city ? There ' s some , but I don ' t think it ' s a big problem . A lot of it is petty crime , burglary and car theft . There ' s very little major crime . It ' s the same in my city . We also have a lot of drug addicts . A lot of the crime is committed by drug addicts who need money for drugs . That happens in many places . In my city , there is a very good drug rehabilitation program . The police and courts are also tough on people who commit crimes , but I don ' t know if that ' s the reason for our relatively low crime rate .

Steven , what's your idea of price ? The best we can do is $ 120 per case . I'm afraid that's impossible . You can't expect us to reduce it to that extent . I think you are well informed about the prevailing market . Some Spanish firms are offering the same at much lower prices .

My computer isn ' t running at the same speed it used to be , it is testing my patience everyday . Can you tell me how to make it run faster ? If you want to speed up your system , you ' Ve got to clean it up first . How ? You need to free your disk space . The simplest way is to use a Disk-Cleanup tool to remove temporary files and in store programs that you no longer use . Things should be fine next time you start . You also need to control what starts up . There is a program calls Start-up Delayer , It can help to set after how much time programs should be loaded after Windows boosts . For example , you can choose to set your Fox Mail program to load 30 seconds after Windows starts up .

Hi , Lucy , you are very popular with people around you , what are your tricks ? Thank you for saying so . I don ' t know , probably because I like sharing my experience and knowledge with them . I think this kind of communication helps to improve our work efficiency and also helps to get along with colleagues . Sharing knowledge can be very settled and some second stances . People may think you are telling them how to do their work . If they take it personally , they feel angry at you and even become reluctant to support you at work . That is true . Some people will misunderstand your intention and lets you do it in the long threatening way . For example , it is not sensible at all to arguing with the others or correcting someone in front of other people . To show your friendliness and willingness to share is much more important than to show off .

There are so many environment problems in the world today . Do you think we can really solve them all or will destroy the world ? I hope that world leaders can get together and agree on a plan for action , but I doubt it ' ll happen before it ' s too late . We need to solve the problem of air pollution before we destroy the atmosphere . There ' s lots of clean , modern technology , but companies in developed countries say it ' s expensive . Developing countries put more emphasis on economic development than on environment protection . Everyone is looking at the issue in the short term , rather than the long term . It ' s the same with the destruction of the rainforests . Countries and companies just want the wood . They ' re not thinking about the long-term damage to the forests . We should also remember that the forests are an important natural habitat for thousands of species of animal and plant life .

But why would a guy be selling new video cameras for twenty dollars ? He said he had to get rid of them . They were stolen . Aha ! Now I understand . You were trying to buy stolen goods on the sidewalk . So , what I think is , you deserve to get cheated ! C'mon , don't blame me ! I thought it was a new camera . We could use it . We were even thinking about buying a camera . I don't understand how he could have such a perfect-looking box .

C'mon , don't blame me ! I thought it was a new camera . We could use it . We were even thinking about buying a camera . I don't understand how he could have such a perfect-looking box . That's no problem . He just has a friend who works in a shop that can do plastic wrap . That's easy . And probably it's the same shop he got the boxes from . Maybe his friend works in an electronics store . They sell video cameras there . Probably they had a couple video camera boxes lying around . So they get the idea of wrapping bricks to sell to fools like you . Twenty dollars a brick . That's a good profit if they can sell enough bricks .

That was a beautiful car . It ' s a new car , but it ' s totaled . Well , your insurance covers sufficient money to replace it . So you don ' t need to worry .

Since you are not the one who caused the accident , your insurance cost should be the same .

That will allow both you and your parents to enjoy yourselves .

By the middle of October , I think . That's too late . You see , November is the season for this commodity in our market , and our Customs formalities are rather complicated . I understand . Besides , the flow through the marketing channels and the red tape involved take at least a couple of weeks . Thus , after shipment it will be four to five weeks altogether before the goods can reach our retailers . The goods must therefore be shipped before October ; otherwise we won't be in time for the selling season .

Look at these clothes designed by top fashion designer like Versacci , Calvin Klein , and Vivienne Westwood . What do you think of them ? Well , they look lovely , but they ' re not very practical .

All the journalists and photographers are there . Thirdly , it give them a chance to show what they would like to see people wearing . You meant it ' s an expression of their fantasies ? Yes . I think the designers are saying that these clothes are what they would like to see people wear if those people weren ' t concerned with what other people might think . In a way , the designers are saying ' don ' t worry about what others think . Wear what you like ! ' . Very philosophical . I think they design these clothes more for publicity . They try to see who can be the most extreme and outrageous , but still stylish .

Well , we've settled everything in connection with this transaction except the question of the mode of payment .

If you can do us a special favor this time and allow us to delay payment , we'd really appreciate it .

Oh , yes , it was very interesting . What were the schools like ? Oh , I didn't actually teach in the schools . I taught after school . I taught in English institutes . But you taught children , yes ?
What were the schools like ? Oh , I didn't actually teach in the schools . I taught after school . I taught in English institutes . But you taught children , yes ? Yes . That's right . But children in Taiwan are very different from children in America . At least as far as studying is concerned . Many children in Taiwan go to special institutes after school .

They actually study after school ? That's right . After their school day is over , they go to a special institute to study math or English . They are very serious about learning over there . Hmm . That sounds pretty oppressive for the kids . Don't they ever relax ? Of course they do . You know , Eliza , before I went over there I thought the same thing . I thought that maybe kids in Taiwan study too much . But now that I've worked there , and taught them , I feel it is a good thing . Their parents are very concerned about their education . More than American parents are . And that is good . American kids don't study enough .

So it was interesting for me to see parents very concerned about education . They would come to me after the class and ask how their son or daughter was doing . I don't think that's a bad thing . I think it's a good thing . In America , too many parents don't pay attention .

What is your most preferred training method ? Well , I prefer active rather than passive training . For example , I like the training offered by a financial software company from which we bought the newest updated virgin . They sent the programmers to demonstrate how to do and then ask us to practice . All employees receiving this training were in the same meeting room , so we could communicate with each other . We had a lot of fun learning together . It helps to build up the work relation among colleagues . Well , that is also very efficient , right ? Of course , it is much better than just giving us some reading materials or information via the internet .

Sir , I am very glad to tell that we have successfully registered the trademark for our new product . It is the time to think of some effective promoting strategies . We are beginning to get more attention from overseas . Well done , Fred . Do you know something useful for our promotion for our I-series ? OK , Let me see . I suppose we must strengthen our promotion , because our brand is still new to some consumers .

Did you hear ? The state is thinking of legalizing gambling in our city ! Soon we are gonna have amazing hotels and casinos here which will be good for our business ! Are you serious ? Gambling is a vice industry built on deception and fed by the intentional exploitation of human weakness for the sole purpose of monetary gain ! It disgusts me . What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ? Well , to begin with , Gambling is addictive , ruins marriages , destroys families and bankrupts communities . Once you are addicted it is very difficult to stop . People have lost their houses , cars and been left out on the street after becoming addicted . Secondly , it exploits because men become addicted to gambling most often because of the action and risk . Women gamble to escape , and senior citizens will start gambling for the social interaction . Underage gamblers often start gambling on sports with friends and then illegal bookies .
Are you serious ? Gambling is a vice industry built on deception and fed by the intentional exploitation of human weakness for the sole purpose of monetary gain ! It disgusts me . What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ? Well , to begin with , Gambling is addictive , ruins marriages , destroys families and bankrupts communities . Once you are addicted it is very difficult to stop . People have lost their houses , cars and been left out on the street after becoming addicted . Secondly , it exploits because men become addicted to gambling most often because of the action and risk . Women gamble to escape , and senior citizens will start gambling for the social interaction . Underage gamblers often start gambling on sports with friends and then illegal bookies . Geez ! Now that I think about it , maybe legalizing gambling isn ' t such a good idea ! Although , I have been to Las Vegas , and I didn ' t become addicted or anything like that .

I Don't know how they do it ! Our competitors have undercut us by 10 % percent on the price of our latest model . There is no way will be able to compete against that . We're barely breaking even with the present prices . These price wars are disastrous for our bottom line . If they're charging 10 % less than we are , we've got to find a way to lower our price while keeping our profit . Profits are almost nonexistent now , we can't beat their price . How do they keep their price so low ? We can try to lower our cost of production then . We need a price that we can compete with , something comparable with the competition .

Those are today ' s top stories . Now let ' s go to John for the weather . John , what does the forecast look like for our weekend travelers ? I ' m afraid we ' re in for a rough weekend , Marry . There is a storm system moving through the East Coast . It will be drizzling all day today , and there ' s a 60 percent chance of thunderstorms this evening . It will be warm and humid all weekend . In the Midwest , expect strong winds and a low of around 40 degrees . That ' s pretty chilly for the summer ! Will it rain on Saturday ? Unfortunately , yes . It will be clear early Saturday morning but there is a high chance of showers and thunderstorms later in the day . There is a severe thunderstorm warning for some parts of the Southeast . Folks in those areas might see some hail and flooding , especially in areas that have been experiencing record high rainfalls .

It gets better on Sunday , though . The storm systems move east and the skies will clear up at night . It will still be rather cool , with highs in the low 50s . The West Coast will be experiencing some unusually chilly weather , but at least the sun will come out . I advise weekend travelers to be careful , especially while driving . Back to you , Mark .

I do feel like a trip to Florida on such a gloomy day in New York , to enjoy the sunshine while lying on the beaches of Florida . That's a great idea . It's the best season for tourists in Florida . You can also get a good sun-tan there . But if the sunshine is too strong , it might damage the eyes and the skin . You can put on your shades . And remember don't make your skin look like a tomato . Or else after that your skin will begin to flake off . You may even wind up with skin cancer .

I think that , as more people use the Internet for both work and pleasure , it makes more sense as a tool to connect with people , and the stigma of meeting someone online is reduced .

Do you suggest talking to them on the phone right away or communicating via e-mail ? I would say do not make the e-mail exchange too long . A lot of times a connection via e-mail creates almost a false sense of intimacy . Quickly make sure there is a connection in the physical world .

Can you work under pressure ? Working under pressure is exciting and challenging . I don ' t mind . In fact , I am very efficient when certain pressure is exerted on the work . What are the problems you have encountered in your job and how do you solve them ? There was a time when both the clerical assistant and the secretary resigned at the same time . I then had to handle their work temporarily . The workload was incredibly heavy . So I started to set priorities for the jobs and hired part-time staff to handle routine work . Finally , I managed to keep the operation smooth until we found someone to fill the vacancy .

What do you think of the way people use and treat animals ? I think most people treat animals well , but we are often cruel to animals . When we raise animals for food , the conditions they live in are often poor . Perhaps people should stop eating animals . We could grow more crops . What would you do with all the animals ? You couldn ' t just let them go . Besides , some people would still hunt them . Meat has become an integral part of our diet .

Hello there , welcome to Wine World . Let me know if I can help you out at all . Um , yes , please , I could really use some help . I'm going over to my boss'house for dinner tonight and don't know what kind of wine I should bring . OK , do you know what kind of food will be served ? Well , his wife is Japanese . He said she makes really good sushi .
Um , yes , please , I could really use some help . I'm going over to my boss'house for dinner tonight and don't know what kind of wine I should bring . OK , do you know what kind of food will be served ? Well , his wife is Japanese . He said she makes really good sushi . Hmm , that's a bit of a challenge . Sushi is notoriously difficult to pair with wine . Well , let's see . have to be a white wine , of course .

Well , his wife is Japanese . He said she makes really good sushi . Hmm , that's a bit of a challenge . Sushi is notoriously difficult to pair with wine . Well , let's see . have to be a white wine , of course . Why ? Wouldn't a red wine go well with sushi ? No , I don't think so . Sushi is a very delicately flavored food , and red wine would be a jarring contrast . You need a white wine , which has more subtle flavors , to complement the fish .

No , I don't think so . Sushi is a very delicately flavored food , and red wine would be a jarring contrast . You need a white wine , which has more subtle flavors , to complement the fish . I see .

You need a white wine , which has more subtle flavors , to complement the fish . I see . So should I get a bottle of Chardonnay ? That's a white wine , right ? Yes , Chardonnay is a white wine , but I'm not sure it'd be your best bet . Chardonnay is one of the more fullbodied whites , and tends to be a bit oaky . I'd suggest that you go for something brighter , like this Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand .

We don't have quite as extensive a selection over here , but ... this Rhone Valley white would be lovely . All right . What varietal is that ? Well , this is a French wine , so they don't always specify the varietal on the label . The French believe that the soil a grape is grown in is one of the most important factors in the final flavor of the wine . This wine is probably a blend of a few different types of grapes , mostly Viognier , I'd guess .

It's not quite as dry as the Sauvignon Blanc we were looking at earlier , which means it's more approachable . It's light and crisp , with a bit of a vanilla aroma .

Hey , Susan . Have you got a sec ? I have some questions about my paycheck . You bet , Emily . Pull up a chair . Well , this is my first paycheck here in the States and there are a few things I don't understand .

First of all , what is this FICA , and SUI Y tax , and why are there deductions both for Medicare and for my health insurance plan ? OK , let's start from the top of your pay stub . This number here represents your gross pay . Then here we have a series of deductions . First off are the federal ones . FICA stands for Federal Insurance Contribution Act , or something like that . It's your federal income tax . And then there's Social Security and Medicare , which are both federal programs to help you out after you retire or if you were unable to work .

There's the state income tax , and then this SUI / SDI tax you were asking about is paying into an unemployment and disability fund that our state has set up , but you can see it's a pretty small quantity that they take .

Thanks for inviting me to your friend ' s wedding . I was surprised to hear the bride and groom talking to each other that way during the marriage ceremony . Is that common ? Well , some people use a standard set of words , but many couples today write their own wedding vows . Your tradition of throwing rice as they got into their car was interesting , but it didn't look like real rice to me . It wasn't . It was birdseed . We don't throw rice anymore because someone discovered that birds come along and eat the rice and have trouble digesting it .

Well , at the start of the spring we usually have more daylight in the mornings and less in the afternoon . This is basically due to our position on the planet and the rotation of the earth .

I never understood things like this , such as GMT . I never know what time zone we are in or when to change my clock !

What seems to be the problem ? I have a really bad toothache ! My cheek is swollen and I can ' t eat anything . Let ' s have a look . Mmmm . This doesn ' t look too good . I think we may have to pull out your wisdom tooth . It ' s pressing against your molars and that ' s one of the reasons you are experiencing so much pain . When you pull my tooth will you also have to extract the nerve and the root ?

What reasons do westerners drink for ? I don't think drinking requires any special purposes . For us people in the West , the purpose is generally quite simple-to savor the wine . I know what you mean there . In many circumstances , people kiss the baby for the nurse's sake . And that's what we do when drinking at a banquet . Even though we do have a rich variety of brand-name wines , like Matai and Showing Yellow Rice Wine , alcohol is usually served not for the enjoyment itself . We just be its Dionysus effect to enliven the atmosphere , improve personal association with each other and solidify friendship . And to make matters worse , you're urged to drink " one more cup time and again . There is too much etiquette to observe . You'II be set free at a Western banquet It seems we are keen to make it convenient as possible to savor the wine , its color , its aroma and its delicate taste .

I remember when we came to see it we thought it would be lovely .

Do you think discrimination against women in the work force is still prevalent even today ? From my own experience as a career woman , I would have to say that while things are getting better now than they used to be , it is still a widespread problem . Society is changing , but there is still a glass ceiling for women in many career tracks . do you think the glass ceiling phenomena is because of traditional social customs ? Or are there more issues coming into play ? I think it's a very complicated issue . A part of the difficulties women have advancing in the work force are due to few opportunities and many male managers . Don't underestimate the good ole ' boy system . Men have power , so it's easier for them to stay in power .

It ' s a beautiful day here in New Zealand at the Men ' s Volleyball world championship . My name is Rick Fields and I ' m joined by the man with the plan , Bob Copeland . Thank you , Rick . We ' Ve got a very exciting encounter ahead of us today as two powerhouse teams , Brazil and China , face off against each other and try to qualify for the next round . Without a doubt , both teams are in top shape and this will prove to be a competitive match . The ref signals the start of the game and here we go . Ribero serves and China quickly receives the ball . Chen bumps it to the setter , and ... a very nice set by Chen ! Xu spikes it ! Wow , what a great hit ! The Brazilian blockers anticipated the play and tried to block him but he managed to get the ball in !

Hey honey ! Where were you ? I decided to take Kenny to the park and get some fresh air . How was it ? Were there a lot of kids ? It wasn't too crowded , but we had a great time ! We got on the see-saw together , then went on a couple of different slides and then I tried to go with him in the jungle gym , but I didn't fit .

We can offer you a 5 % discount . Your price is rather out of line , much higher than we expected . We can't buy with your offer . Well , what do you suggest then ? How about 8 % ? When we say your prices are much too high , we don't mean the are higher only by 2 or 3 percent . If we are to place an order with you . I think a discount of about 15 % would be sufficient .

Thanks for inviting me to your friend ' s wedding . I was surprised to hear the bride and groom talking to each other that way during the marriage ceremony . Is that common ? Well , some people use a standard set of words , but many couples today write their own wedding vows . Your tradition of throwing rice as they got into their car was interesting , but it didn't look like real rice to me . It wasn't . It was birdseed . We don't throw rice anymore because someone discovered that birds come along and eat the rice and have trouble digesting it .

Is there any way we could get a better warranty on this product ? Well , I can't give you a better warranty , if you would be willing to agree to an annual contract .

We would have to insist on the annual contract , however . I understand it's not the most convenient for you . Perhaps we could shorten it to a sixth month contract if you are willing to take a lower rebate .

How can I be sure your products are of superior quality , as you promised ? One of the reasons for our good quality products is because of our quality inspection system , which is the best of its kind .

Nowadays , ships and boats are no longer so important in transportation as they used to be . True . With the extension of railways and highways , and the improvement of safety and capacity of airplanes , ships and boats have been giving place to trains , planes and automobiles . I read in the newspapers that the passenger liners from Shanghai to Ningpo and Dalian have been out of business ; and the liners up and down the Yangtze River have been reduced by 70 % . The pace of life of people is now getting faster and faster , so the speed of ships and boats seems to be so slow . I think it may be the reason why people don't like to travel by boat .

You should have seen the T . V . show that was on last night , the topic it covered was really interesting , animal rights . Do you really believe in that ? If they are going to focus on something , they should do it on civil rights . Yes , but we can ' t deny that animals are vulnerable , defenseless , and are completely at the mercy of human beings . I understand your point , but we continue to have transgressions against human rights . If so much attention weren ' t devoted to the topic of animals , we would then concentrate more on saving a human being instead of protecting a koala .

How do I apply to an American university ? You should go to the library to find some information about American universities , and write to the Admission Office . Then the Admission Office will send you application forms and other related materials . From experience , many applicants write to several universities instead of just one . I was told that it took a lot of time and effort to apply . That is true . I ' ll list for you the requirements of almost all the universities . First of all , you need official transcripts of your undergraduate work , three letters of recommendation from your professors who know your competence , and the official TOEFL ( Test of English as a Foreign Language ) score ( It ' s usually 550 ) . Then you need a financial guarantee , and an application fee of 25 dollars .

I like chess better than xiangqi . And you ? For my part , xiangqi . Maybe it's because my girlfriend is Chinese . I think chess is more reasonable . You see , each side has eight pawns , a larger number than that of the soldiers in xiangqi . A true battle should be like that . Soldiers should outnumber the commanders . Quite right . And unlike the soldiers in xiangqi , the pawns in chess can promote once they reach the furthest rank . It is very agreeable to grant merits to people with good performance .

It is very agreeable to grant merits to people with good performance . Correct ! Another contrast is the rules for the general and the king . It seems the general or marshal in xiangqi is much too incompetent . They are required to stay in the palace , waiting to be checked and fleeing for life under the cover of the guards . Look at the king in chess , he is much more capable .

I think this demonstrates the relatively higher social status of aristocratic women in medieval Europe than in China .

Which social problem do you think the government needs to concentrate on most ? I think housing is a big problem . There are thousands of homeless people on the streets .

Have you ever played Making ? Not really , but I know it is very popular a traditional Chinese gambling game . Yes , some friends play it all day , all night , and sometimes a whole weekend .

The insurance policy covers any amount above that , up to the agreed limit . Oh , I see . That ' s fine . What is the advantage of having higher deductibles ?

It is said that there is a beautiful goddess Chang'E on the moon who had eaten some sort of elixir and had to depart her husband . She is always expecting to see her husband again . So , later we have the traditional idea that when there is the full moon , it is time for the family members to come together . So , I understand why people eat moon cakes on that day . You are right . In China , ' round ' is an auspicious word . The moon cakes are in round shape .

Adam , I'm sorry ! But where have you been , Alice ? You're over an hour late . Yes , but I couldn't help it . I was late getting off work for a start , and then I missed the bus .

That doesn't make sense . If you eat more , than how do you lose weight ?

I eat 5 smaller meals a day . Basically , it naturally speeds up the metabolism and helps to burn fat at a faster rate .

I think that show biz stars have a really easy life . They have lots of money , so they can buy almost anything they want . They ' re famous , so everyone loves them . I think they must have horrible lives . All the paparazzi take photos of them wherever they go and whatever they do . They must get sick of it . I bet they love it really . Sure , they complain about it , but that just gets them more publicity , doesn ' t it ? I think that few of the show biz stars want any publicity for themselves . They only want it for their films .

Let's have seafood tonight and then go see the new movie at Mall Cinema . Betsy told me it's a beautiful love story and I shouldn't miss it . Oh , Goodness , please not again . That ' s what we did last week . No , we didn't . Last week we went to see that movie about a man's struggle against mental illness . Right , it was a chick flick , just like this one , so what's the difference ? Besides , this is the last week for the third movie in Destroyer series and I want to see that on a big screen . Action movies need to be seen in a theater on a big screen .

what do you think about all the different diets people go on ? I don't think dieting is good for you . It's much better to eat a balanced diet and to never get overweight to begin with ! but what do you think about people who are obese ?

Did you hear ? The state is thinking of legalizing gambling in our city ! Soon we are gonna have amazing hotels and casinos here which will be good for our business ! Are you serious ? Gambling is a vice industry built on deception and fed by the intentional exploitation of human weakness for the sole purpose of monetary gain ! It disgusts me . What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ? Well , to begin with , Gambling is addictive , ruins marriages , destroys families and bankrupts communities . Once you are addicted it is very difficult to stop . People have lost their houses , cars and been left out on the street after becoming addicted . Secondly , it exploits because men become addicted to gambling most often because of the action and risk . Women gamble to escape , and senior citizens will start gambling for the social interaction . Underage gamblers often start gambling on sports with friends and then illegal bookies .

What ' s the difference between football and rugby ? Those tow games are quite different . First , there ' s the size of the teams . In football , a team has 11 players . In rugby there are 15 players on each team . The biggest difference is that in football , only the goalkeeper can use his hands . In rugby , the ball is usually carried forward by players , though kicking is permitted . In rugby , players pass the ball by throwing it to team mates , don ' t they ? That ' s right . However , players can only pass the ball backwards . They cannot pass the ball forwards to their team mates . That ' s a foul .

Can you suggest a few exercise to help me get fit and stretch my muscles a little ? Sure . If you want to stretch your legs , a good exercise is to lift your knee in front of your body , like this .

You don ' t want to drop them on your feet ! When I do push-ups , should I bend my elbows so that my nose touches the ground ? You don ' t need to bend your elbows that much . Bend them so that your arms are at a 90 degree angle . The most important think is to remember to keep your body straight . Many people bend their bodies at the waist , which reduces the effectiveness of the exercise .

Mm-hm . How long were you there ? I was there for almost a year . Oh , OK . And I travelled a little bit in Australia . I went up the east coast . Up to Frasier Island . Which is a world heritage site . And I saw dingo running along the beach and sharks in the water . We climbed cliffs and went through a rain forest and went camping and then we went up to the ... , which is a but north . And the further north you go in Australia , the hotter it gets . So we were able to go swimming in the ocean and I went diving for the first time but it was a little bit risky cause I didn't have a diving license , so I went on an introductory dive and I saw a giant clam that had a really purple spongy inside that I was able to touch and then the clam closed up really quickly .

During the last two years , there has been a great increase in goods stolen abroad . If they steal the entire package , that would be theft . So they don't do that . Generally , thieves open the case and take part of the contents out . Then fill the case so that the gross weight will be the same . If the goods are received in apparent good order and condition , the steamship company doesn ' t have liability for pilferage . How do we protect ourselves ? The insurance policy protects us .

The summers are hotter . The last three summers have been the hottest for the past 200 years . There have also been stronger winds .

Don't you feel a little strange taking the place of your old boss after he was demoted ? Yes , at first I felt very awkward .

I guess everyone understands the opportunity I had to step into a leadership role is so great for my career . I'm really moving up the ladder now that I'm considered a supervisor . After a couple weeks , it was like nothing happened .

This is our rock - bottom price , Mr . Li . We can't make any further concessions . If that's the case , there's not much point in further discussion . We might as well call the whole deal off . What I mean is that we'll never be able to come down to your price . The gap is too great . I think it unwise for either of us to insist on his own price . How about meeting each other half way so that business can be concluded ?

Since China was open to the outside world , its trade forms have become much more flexible . One of these commonly used forms is co-production . Would you please do a bit explanation of it , Mr . Walker ? Well , under this arrangement two parties cooperate to manufacture a product or a category of products , for example , machine tools for export . Each party produces and supplies a part of the components and parts ; one party is a Chinese enterprise , the other , an overseas firm . Most probably , the foreign counterpart contributes technology and equipment , and sometimes , parts and components , while the Chinese enterprises factory building , labor and other resources to the cooperative production . They join hands and fulfill orders together by an agreement or a contract . I suppose that the assembling of these components and parts , particularly the marketing of the finished products should take place in China . Not necessarily . It depends on the contract stipulations . They may be marketed in the foreign country where the other party is located , or even in a third country .

And so , I just wanted to check in with you and find out where we are with this project . As you know , you ' Ve missed a fairly significant deadline last week , and this will negativity impact the team ' s ability to move forward with the next stages of this project . I know , I ' m really sorry that I missed the deadline . But really , it wasn ' t my fault . You see , we had all of these unexpected technical problems at the last minute , and that I couldn ' t get into the database and extract the kind of information that I needed for the data analysis . You know , if the tech guys would have done their job and kept the ARM stable , then I wouldn ' t have missed my deadline . Oh , come on ! An excuse like that is tantamount to lying . You ' re essentially blaming the tech team for your time management issues , rather than accepting responsibility for the fact that you were procrastinating for the past two weeks . No , I ' m not trying to pass the buck here ; I know that it was me who is ultimately responsible for getting this done . But the thing is , I could have finished on time if the system hadn ' t gone down . And you know , with everything I ' Ve got going on now , I can ' t afford to waste time dealing with technical problems . I ' Ve got a lot on my plate and there are only twenty-four hours in a day ...

In China at least , coffee is often associated with an exotic , well-to-do bourgeois lifestyle . Coffee is often considered a hobby of the well-educated , middle-class people . Maybe that's why some young chaps often spend a whole afternoon in a coffee bar , surfing the net or just typewriting something with laptop . While they are savoring a coffee at a leisured pace , they are actually showing off ! Yes . Behind a lifestyle , there is a culture . Young people easily become blind worshippers of a Westernized life . While they may not really like coffee , they think it desirable and enviable to be lavish with money in those high-consumption places . Then what about tea ? We need to bear in mind in the first place that tea , rather than coffee , has been the most popular drink for the Chinese people .

It is not easy to find an old-fashioned teahouse that suits the ordinary people's spending power either . Teahouses of today all feature a cozy , comfortable environment , and high-quality services , but can easily cost you a good deal -- just like a coffee bar .

So , the national ping-pong team must be a highly competitive membership . Sure .

They are not even allowed to talk relationships with each other .

I'm reading an interesting report on Mars . Oh , what does it say ? Does it say water could still exist under the surface of Mars ? Absolutely ! It says there is water on Mars buried beneath the surface . It's just a matter of how deep it is . Then could the soil on Mars somehow be fertile enough to Groh simple plants ?
Oh , what does it say ? Does it say water could still exist under the surface of Mars ? Absolutely ! It says there is water on Mars buried beneath the surface . It's just a matter of how deep it is . Then could the soil on Mars somehow be fertile enough to Groh simple plants ? The soil would need quite a bit of fertilizer to grow anything . And it would need to be protected from the UV radiation .

The soil would need quite a bit of fertilizer to grow anything . And it would need to be protected from the UV radiation . Actually , we are doing a project in school that involves landing a ship and staying on Mars for an extended period of time . Does NASA have any type of portable habitats that could be used to stay on the planet ?

Mars is made of rocks containing silicon , iron , and various minerals . It also has an atmosphere of carbon dioxide . It is so different from what we have on earth , you know .

Our housing problem is a highly complicated issue . It is true . I think we should change some policies . Right . Like our LPF program . The mortgage size is linked with the amount of savings households have accumulated on their LPF accounts . Indeed , it's unfair . Households with higher salaries receive larger LPF contributions and thus qualify for larger loans . Lower-income households , on the other hand , can only get smaller loans , or perhaps nothing if they could not afford to purchase any housing .

What are you reading ? It ' s an article about language . It talks about the idea of having a single global language . It seems that English already is the main global language . Does the article suggest that there should be an artificial language like Esperanto as the world language . Actually , it suggest English . The main argument is that English is already being studied as a second language in most countries-china , India , mexico , Nigeria , Pakistan , and japan . So beginning again with a language like Esperanto would be wasteful . The second argument is that English is used in modern technology far more that any other language . Most emails are sent in English and the vast majority of website use English .

Based on the survey report , they will lodge a clam for compensation .

We agree to give you a break on the price , all together a discount of 6 % . Good news is , I talked to my boss , he confirmed that if you take care of the shipping costs , we'll throw in insurance . Great ! I'd love to get a little better discount than 6 % , but if your company provides the insurance , that will save us a few bucks ... Now , all this is available to you , as far as you make payment within a 30 day grace period . That shouldn't be a problem , right ? No ... We shouldn't have any problem with that . I know we talked about a possibility for 90 days , but we won't be needing that after your discounted price .

How about offering three hundred and twenty thousand dollars ?

Did you hear the news ? Two of our major suppliers , Murphy Music and U-Tunes are merging ! If they are conglomerated into one company into one company , it would have some serious affects on our market strategy . Are you sure ? Who told you that ? I highly doubt that they would take the step to merge into one company ... They're supposed to be bitter enemies , the strictest of competitors . It must be a rumor . It can't be true . I read it myself on the financial page . They ' re really going to join together . U-Tunes was bought out by Murphy's , they will take over the company as of next month . The competition must have been too stiff for U-Tunes . Otherwise why would they allow themselves to be taken over by their sworn enemy ?

I suggest you go home immediately and have a good rest .

Welcome back movie lovers to another Premier Movie Review . My name is Richard Clarke and I am joined today by the very erudite DavidWatson . Thank you Dick . Today we are going to talk about the movie Lion King . Tell me Dave , what is your impression of this film ? Well , I think this film is simply a fable , depicting man ' s eternal greed for power , and in my opinion , it ' s a very fine film . Even despite the accusations of plagiarism traditional folk tales from other countries . The musical score was amazing , the animation was very well done , and the story was simply enchanting . I think otherwise . Even though the animation was technically strong , and as you say , the score and songs performed by Elton John were great , the film lacks a certain originality ; it lacked heart . And I would dare to say , it was too predictable .

It did have some very dramatic and intense scenes For example when Mufasal dies , or the dark , grim portrayal of Scar . Even so , the film is linear . Mufasal dies , Simba runs away thinking it ' s his fault . Falls in love and returns to retake what is rightfully his . It ' s just too cliche .

I'm busy year in and year out , but now I've done nothing . You've done a lot , my darling ! I may have done a lot , but none is to my satisfaction . You're too strict with yourself .

I watched the movie Forrest Gump last night . And the question just lined in my mind . Well . I think IQ matters more . But it won't work without EQ . Why ? You seem pretty sure about it . Because an intellectual mind can only be a beneficial thing in life .
Well . I think IQ matters more . But it won't work without EQ . Why ? You seem pretty sure about it . Because an intellectual mind can only be a beneficial thing in life . But IQ is decided at birth . One can't expect to make a lot of improvement in it .
Why ? You seem pretty sure about it . Because an intellectual mind can only be a beneficial thing in life . But IQ is decided at birth . One can't expect to make a lot of improvement in it . That's why people's achievement varies greatly .
Because an intellectual mind can only be a beneficial thing in life . But IQ is decided at birth . One can't expect to make a lot of improvement in it .

That's why people's achievement varies greatly . That ' s true , but what if one comes across some difficulties . He must rely on his EQ to deal with them .

That ' s true , but what if one comes across some difficulties . He must rely on his EQ to deal with them . Yes , Jerry , can you share your understanding of EQ ?

Yes , Jerry , can you share your understanding of EQ ? I think it is independent of IQ and plays a prominent role in deciding the way we live our lives . Quite right . Have you noticed that a high IQ is not a must for one's success ? Just as Forrest ?

I'm really fed up with Larry ! He's the biggest airhead I've ever met . He always makes careless mistakes , and he's a pain to work with . You shouldn't be so negative . You ' ll always have some co-workers that are harder to work with than others . But if you are negative and start name-calling in the office , it will make a bad working environment for everybody . You only say that because you don't have to work with him . The people in your department seem so capable and nice to be around . Take Mary for example . She ' s smart and enthusiastic . I've never met anyone as cheery as she is . Everybody has their strengths and weaknesses . Even Larry . He might be a pain to be around , but he's also very good at staying in budget on projects . Mary , on the other hand , spends our project money like there's no tomorrow . Also , she's never willing to stay a little later at the office . She always leaves at 5pm sharp .

What did you learn at the workshop you went to yesterday ? Do you think it was worth the investment to go ? Yeah , I really got a lot of the session . The workshop topic was resolving personal problems . It was led by a professional human resources director . The teacher had a lot of experience , and I think we were all given a really good base to start with . The workshop was only one afternoon long , do you really think you can learn that much in only a couple of hours ? It depends on the topic , the teacher , and the way the course is set up . Yesterday , even though we only had a short time to discuss the issues , the workshop got us all thinking . We learned some very basic , but very useful methods of dealing with personnel issues .

who is your favorite NBA star ? Kobe Bryant , of course . Kobe ? I know him , the key guy of the Lakers , a heck of a NBA player . He is on fire when he breaks through enemy defense . He is competent both in driving the lane and shooting jumpers , but what really makes him formidable is his ability to switch up and dribble with his left hand .

Did you watch the Premiership last night ? Yes , I watched United play Chelsea . What a fierce battle ! allay were engaged in intensive pressing and tackling in midfield . Well , it was not like a normal English League match . No , it wasn't . Rather , it looked like a Bundesliga match , where physical contact is so frequent . English League teams are apt to pass the midfield quickly with long passes . It seems to me English soccer players are very gentlemanly . As Diego Maradona spoke teasingly , they often knew only chasing hard after the ball , but forgot to steal it . Haha . That's probably why slide tackle and fouls are less common , and offsides more frequent in English League matches than those on the Continent . And the ball is often kept flying overhead , drawing beautiful curves in the sky . Such games are quite pleasing to the eye .

I like their playing style . The Reds always have several excellent wing-backs , Like Riggs , Peckham and Gary Neville . They often make wonderful crosses when they assist in attacking .

Alright everyone settle down . Let ' s get started . As you know , an important aspect of becoming a good citizen is understanding the genesis of our legal system . It is not enough to simply memorize our laws , it is necessary that we comprehend why and how they were formed . This brings me to our topic for today . Does anyone know what we celebrate on May first ? Cinct de mayo ? No , that ' s May fifth in Spanish , James , no wonder you are failing my Spanish class . No , May first is International Workers ' Day . Do we get a day off from school then ?
Cinct de mayo ? No , that ' s May fifth in Spanish , James , no wonder you are failing my Spanish class . No , May first is International Workers ' Day . Do we get a day off from school then ? No ! It is not considered to be a national holiday here in the US , but in other countries it is .
No , that ' s May fifth in Spanish , James , no wonder you are failing my Spanish class . No , May first is International Workers ' Day . Do we get a day off from school then ? No ! It is not considered to be a national holiday here in the US , but in other countries it is . Www , man !
Do we get a day off from school then ? No ! It is not considered to be a national holiday here in the US , but in other countries it is . Www , man ! In the nineteenth century , working conditions were appalling , with workers being forced to work ten , twelve , and fourteen hours a day . Support for the eight-hour work day movement was growing rapidly , despite the indifference and hostility of many union leaders , and by April 1886 , 250,000 workers were involved in the May Day movement . Previous legislative attempts to improve working conditions had failed , so labor organizers took drastic measures . They passed a resolution stating that eight hours would constitute a legal day ' s work . And , on May First 1886 , the resolution took effect .

A mass meeting was called for the next day to protest the brutality .

Hi , Francis , how was your business trip ? It was a nightmare . What ' s up ? Actually , the business trip itself was very successful . We arrived on time , we had nice conversations and we settled some important issues for the next year .
It was a nightmare . What ' s up ? Actually , the business trip itself was very successful . We arrived on time , we had nice conversations and we settled some important issues for the next year . Sounds quite fruitful , why do you call it still a nightmare then ?
What ' s up ? Actually , the business trip itself was very successful . We arrived on time , we had nice conversations and we settled some important issues for the next year . Sounds quite fruitful , why do you call it still a nightmare then ? Well , the air line lost my luggage on the return flight and then I lost my carry on bag when I was tackling with the officers in charge . I left the airport three hours later than I expected and then I was caught in a traffic jam . When I finally got home , I was totally exhausted . But I found the elevator was out of service due to a blackout .

A Westerner said to his Chinese friend . " Chinese people slurp when drinking soup . It ' s disgusting . " The Chinese friend replied , " Westerners make a lot of noise licking their fingers when eating . It ' s even worse . " Everyone has his own habits , but these habits are not very good . The noise often spoils other people ' s appetite . I attended a course on table manners while I was in the United States . Some of the things we learnt included how to place the napkin and utensils and how to pass the bread . Before each course , the teacher would ask if we wanted to learn the Continental European way or the American way . We always said " American way . " It ' s amazing that everyone is so used to their own table manners . What is the Chinese way ? The westerners use knives and forks to eat so it is complicated . The Chinese use a pair of chopsticks and eat out of the same plate . I assume it is less complicated , right ?

The Chinese use a pair of chopsticks and eat out of the same plate . I assume it is less complicated , right ? Not really . I did some research about Chinese table manners . The important rule is to remain silent while eating . Of course , this refers to family meals only . Not talking over meals is supposed to be good for the health . It is impolite if people do not talk to each other during a social party . The table arrangements and serving order for a social party are equally complicated . Each dish should be placed in the correct position . When fish is served , the tail should be pointing at the guest because tail meat is supposed to be tasty . If it is in winter , the stomach should face the right-hand side of the guest because that portion of the fish is very rich in winter . Each dish should be commenced by the eldest person who is seated at the head of the table . The diners should sit close to the table so food won ' t drop on their cloths . No noise should be made when chewing . No one should move food back to the communal plate even if he doesn ' t like it . One should drink soup slowly and is not supposed to make a lot of noise . All these table manners are very similar to Western habits .

All these table manners are very similar to Western habits . It seems that people share the same basic sense of etiquette regardless of their background . Apart from the different tools used for eating we seem to follow the same principles . We do not let inappropriate manners spoil other people ' s appetite . Westerners like to say , " bon appetite " before meals which is one way to suggest " mind your table manners . " Is there such an expression in Chinese ?

Well , we've finally put the finishing touches on the training programs for next year . Here's a report showing the projected costs as well as the expected return on investment . Return on investment ? How can you have a return on this kind of investment ? Can you really calculate the value of these training programs ? Sure ! It's not a real figure , of course . It's just an estimate based on rehiring costs , and the potential lost revenue that results from incompetence . Wow ! I'm impressed . So , what's in the cards for future training ? Will it be in-house or off-site ?

In 1986 , a New Zealander Hackett popularized Bungee as a commercialized sport of mass entertainment . This sport is very challenging . It is a test of people's psychological ability of endurance . Especially when descending , as if they are watching a fast forward tape and when they bounce back , they sway around . The timid people will shrink back at the sight of it . Even if they jump off , they find it hard to avoid screaming with closed eyes . No wonder people give the title ' brave ' to anyone who jumps off . You see , the bungee participants take a deep breath when they stand at the starting spot and then , like diving , their heads are over heels and they jump off into the realm of the combination of heaven and earth . The wind roars at their ears and their bodies rapidly descend . They do not even have enough time to do several gymnastic movements and they are rebounded to the upper air by the cord . Entrusting life to the care of a rope indeed requires infinite courage . A young French fellow recalled his first bungee experience and said , " When I fastened the cord and walked to the platform , I was extremely nervous . When I looked down , I was nervous even more . If the cord had broken , I would be knocked to ' bakemeat ' . However , I knew my worries were unwanted . I was afraid if I retreated others might say something about me . I had to harden my heart and impose my head downward . I only felt wind wiring at my ears . My body rapidly descended . I thought that after only seven or eight seconds I was rebounded to upper air by the cord . In fact it was 30 seconds . Maybe because of my nervousness , I only felt seven or eight seconds . When rebounding to the high altitude , I felt a sudden sense of relief . I did not feel nervous very much , but very comfortable . "

We should plan to move out of here before July . I'm tired of living in apartments . I know , dear . I am too . But we've just been too busy to look for a house . We need to find a good realtor . Not necessary . If we use a realtor to find a house , it will be more expensive .
I know , dear . I am too . But we've just been too busy to look for a house . We need to find a good realtor . Not necessary . If we use a realtor to find a house , it will be more expensive . What do you mean ?
We need to find a good realtor . Not necessary . If we use a realtor to find a house , it will be more expensive . What do you mean ? Realtors always get a commission . If the realtor helps us find something , we have to pay him .
Not necessary . If we use a realtor to find a house , it will be more expensive . What do you mean ? Realtors always get a commission . If the realtor helps us find something , we have to pay him . But doesn't a realtor help with the contract ? I thought they take care of all the legal troubles .

Realtors always get a commission . If the realtor helps us find something , we have to pay him . But doesn't a realtor help with the contract ? I thought they take care of all the legal troubles . Yes , that's often true . But you have to pay them . I still think we should have a realtor . We're new in this country . We don't know all the laws of buying a house . And also , the realtor will inspect the house . He can tell us if the house has any problems .

So how can we find a house if we don't have a realtor ? It takes a little more time . We have to check the ads in the paper . Probably also there are special real estate magazines with ads . Then we have to drive to the homes and look at them .

And doesn't the person selling the house have a realtor ? Sometimes they do , sometimes they don't . It's best to find someone who is selling by themselves . Why ?
And doesn't the person selling the house have a realtor ? Sometimes they do , sometimes they don't . It's best to find someone who is selling by themselves . Why ? That is because if the seller has a realtor , their price will be higher . He will have to pay a commission to the realtor .
Sometimes they do , sometimes they don't . It's best to find someone who is selling by themselves . Why ? That is because if the seller has a realtor , their price will be higher . He will have to pay a commission to the realtor . Hmm . It all sounds very complicated .
Why ? That is because if the seller has a realtor , their price will be higher . He will have to pay a commission to the realtor . Hmm . It all sounds very complicated . It is . But buying a house is very important . So it takes time . That's why we haven't done it yet . It's very troublesome .

Well , he was playing baseball with some friends ... And the ball went through her window ? That's not as bad as last time . True , but that's not all . The ball went through the window and hit the vase she has in her front window ... Ok , that's probably expensive , but not that bad .
And the ball went through her window ? That's not as bad as last time . True , but that's not all . The ball went through the window and hit the vase she has in her front window ... Ok , that's probably expensive , but not that bad . And then , ricocheted off her fish bowl . Mrs . Fitzgerald at the last minute dived and saved her fish .
True , but that's not all . The ball went through the window and hit the vase she has in her front window ... Ok , that's probably expensive , but not that bad . And then , ricocheted off her fish bowl . Mrs . Fitzgerald at the last minute dived and saved her fish . At least the fish were saved . If that's the end of the damages , then everything isn't that bad .

Why don't you go get the screwdriver and the pliers and go fix the vacuum cleaner so it works better ?

Bob ! Your eyes look bloodshot . Did you not sleep well ? I had a drop too much last night . I attended a banquet given by a Chinese colleague of mine . And it was startling for me to find that people are forced to drink against their will on a Chinese table . you have it right . Alcohol is a medium for communicating emotion in China . Drinking with business partners or would-be friends is a way of solidifying friendship , especially in Northern China . I just felt embarrassed if I refused to drink when people toasted to me . But if I keep gulping down one cup after another , I'm afraid I would feel unfit or sick .

How do I apply to an American university ? You should go to the library to find some information about American universities , and write to the Admission Office . Then the Admission Office will send you application forms and other related materials . From experience , many applicants write to several universities instead of just one . I was told that it took a lot of time and effort to apply . That is true . I'll list for you the requirements of almost all the universities . First of all , you need official transcripts of your undergraduate work , three letters of recommendation from your professors who know your competence , and the official TOEFL ( Test of English as a Foreign Language ) score ( It's usually 550 ) . Then you need a financial guarantee , and an application fee of 25 dollars .

No worries , there's a subway station at the conference center itself , and a shuttle from your hotel to the conference center that takes only 5 minutes . When you do your personal sightseeing , you can first take the shuttle to the conference center , then hop on the metro . Is it expensive to ride on the underground ?

You can get a daily pass that will allow you to travel unlimited for the whole day for about 6 dollars . Otherwise , you can pay by trip , which is about 50 cents to 2 dollars each trip , depending on how far you go .

Madam , I made a close study of the draft contract yesterday evening . I think there are something needs to modify . Which terms ? First , about the terms of payment . Your draft contract says that payment is to be made by D \ A . This is not our practice . We prefer to have the payment made by L \ C through a negotiating bank in America . Good . I will add this to the contract .

It's stipulated in the contract that all the computer parts should be packed in cardboard boxes . But I think the wooden cases are much safer .

Hi , Lucy , you are very popular with people around you , what are your tricks ? Thank you for saying so . I don ' t know , probably because I like sharing my experience and knowledge with them . I think this kind of communication helps to improve our work efficiency and also helps to get along with colleagues . Sharing knowledge can be very settled and some second stances . People may think you are telling them how to do their work . If they take it personally , they feel angry at you and even become reluctant to support you at work . That is true . Some people will misunderstand your intention and lets you do it in the long threatening way . For example , it is not sensible at all to arguing with the others or correcting someone in front of other people . To show your friendliness and willingness to share is much more important than to show off .

How often are stockholders meetings held ? Stockholders meetings are held biannually . Usually the meetings are scheduled for spring and fall .

My mom was always having headache issues and it was acupuncture that cured her . The results are too slow . On top of that , just the thought of smoking needles poking into my flesh frightens me . They don't just randomly stick you , they find your pressure points . The heat allows the body to immediately respond to the treatment , restoring the body's " chi " .

How could I stand having needles in my body for hours on end ?

The heat allows the body to immediately respond to the treatment , restoring the body's " chi " . But I get scared the moment I see a needle . How could I stand having needles in my body for hours on end ? The needles are very thin , and as long as the doctor's technique is good , and the patient himself is relaxed , it won't hurt-on the contrary it will actually alleviate pain . Now there are high-tech needles that are micro thin ; they don't hurt at all . However , if you are really scared of acupuncture , scraping or cupping are also options .

I understand we will need seven air conditioning units on the two floors . That ' s what you think , yes ? Yes . You could use five or six units . But five or six wouldn't be very efficient . I recommend seven . And if we take the Decker units you suggested , what would the price be ? Let me calculate the price for you . I can give you a 15 % discount if you buy the seven units . Let ' s see here . Your total would be 5929 dollars .

Your total would be 5929 dollars . Isn't there any way we can get central air conditioning in this building ? As I said , it is possible , but it would be much more expensive .

Which team do you think will emerge with the last laugh in this World Cup ? I wish it could be Germany . But it seems they are not in a very good conditions . No , they aren't . They had a hard time in the group stage and only sealed a sit in the eighth-finals with Wallack ' s header in the final three minutes . Just think , group A consists of Austria , China , and Saudi Arabia , all of which are minnows . It seems they've been out of luck since the beginning of the event . Their shots hit the woodwork as many as six times . Oh . my goodness ! I'm afraid the team is under a spell .

Well , at least the Germans have demonstrated a very good ability to control the midfield . They recorded a total of 62 tackles in the match against Austria . And they to be endowed with perfect positional sense . I think that will give rise to scoring chances sooner or later .

What do you think about all the different diets people go on ? I don't think dieting is good for you . It's much better to eat a balanced diet and to never get overweight to begin with ! But what do you think about people who are obese ? What should they do to lose weight ? They need to eat healthy foods , but they also have to increase the amount of exercise they do every day . They don't have to cut out fattening foods altogether , though .

So you think it's ok for people who are dieting to eat chocolate ? Sure , they can eat some chocolate . As long as they are exercising and eating mostly healthy foods , there's nothing wrong with having a small dessert . How about drinking soda ? Many people gain weight by drinking far too much soda . Soda should be a treat ; there's simply no nutritional value in it whatsoever . If you want to lose weight and you can't stop drinking soda , try some diet coke .

Well , I can teach you how I make them , which is the same way my father and grandmother make them , which is a little special . OK . Yeah ! Yeah !

You put some oil and heat it up , so it's quite hot , and then you take your whipped up eggs , or whisked up eggs , and pour them into the pan , and as it's cooking , if you take a spatula , and push the bottom layer of the egg , to the side , to the sides , and then to the middle , so the uncooked egg gets to the bottom of the pan .

I think that companies spend far too much money on advertising . They should have lower prices instead . Then they would see more . I see your point , but if companies didn ' t spend money on advertising , no one would hear about their products . I agree that some form of advertising can be annoying . I don ' t like it when people try to give you leaflets with information about products you have no intention of buying .

Sometimes I think television is too biased . None of them are completely objective . That's unavoidable , but think , How would you keep up to date without television ?

Give these sales figures a look . It's pretty depressing . We're way in the red this year . We can't afford to keep going like this for much longer . You're right , we need to start making money soon , or at least manage to break even . But I think that the market is slowly beginning to heat up--sales are bound to pick up any time now . Deman is dropping . The problem is our competition . They are monopolizing the market ! Maybe we should rethink our marketing strategy to include the possibility that our new line of cosmetics could be a big seller .

I want to ask you for a favor . I want to rent an apartment here in Beijing , but as a foreigner , I don't know the normal practice . Can you give me some advice ? First , why don't you tell me what you need , such as how big a room , where you want to live , whether you want to live downtown , and what you like to do . Then I can figure out which apartment is most suitable for you . I am a student and want to live in Haitian , so that I can live close to my school . I like to play soccer and I like a quiet apartment so I can study . I think that an apartment with two rooms and a kitchen would suit your needs . I can introduce you to a place for rent near your school . The apartment is on the 7th floor , so it is very quiet and suitable for studying .

So what do you feel like doing this evening ? How about going to the cinema ? Ah , that's a good idea . But I heard the film club of our school would show a film for free . Maybe we don't need to go to the cinema . That's good ! I've also heard there will be a party held by the Students ' Union tomorrow evening . Would you like to go with me tomorrow night ? I'd like to , but I'm afraid I can't .

I think we should do the floors before we work on the curtains and walls . Why ? it doesn't make sense . If we do the floors first , and then paint the walls , we will get paint all over our new floor . Hmm Maybe you're right . But I can't stand all this green carpet here . And besides , I know how to paint . I will just cover everything with drop cloth . I won't get anything on the floor . Are you sure ?

I wish our competition will quit poaching our people , when Susan resigned last week to work for the Sunburst , she was our fourth employee to leave us for them . Have you ever considered that perhaps we have a morale problem among our employees ? If everyone is discontent with their work , of course they won't stick arround . Well , those do leave will soon find out the grass isn't as green on the other side of sense as they thought it was , I know Sunburst is suffering from inbreeding . Inbreeding is a big drawback from snitching most of their employers from one or two companies .

Dad , I ' d like to borrow some money . Sure , Johnny , how much do you need ? five bucks ? Come on , Dad , I need thirty thousand . I wanna get into the market . You know , I ' m tired of hearing all this news about the economic downturn , the inevitable recession , people stuffing their money in their mattresses . I look at this as an opportunity . This is a chance for me to get a jump start on building my nest egg . I don ' t know about that ; with all the uncertainty in the markets right now , it would be a very unwise decision to invest . I don ' t know if you ' re aware son , but there has been a lot of turmoil in the markets recently . There have already been half a million layoffs in the last few months , and we have no idea how the proposed stimulus package will impact the economy . There ' s just too much instability . I wouldn ' t feel comfortable investing in this climate .

Here alone the aggregate demand for consumer goods represents an amazing wealth generating opportunity .

Well , that was an interesting documentary ! For sure ! I didn ' t really understand some of the technical jargon they used in the film when they talked about social security in the US . Like what ? Well , they mentioned how people put away money in something called a 401K ?

What is the most unexpected thing you experienced in space ? I wasn't quite prepared for the view of the Earth as we left . It was just awe-inspiring . It emerged from just a slightly curved horizon to a whole Earth , where you could look across oceans and continents in a single glance . I wasn't quite prepared for that . It's inevitably etched in my memory . When viewing the Earth from space , do you feel detached from humanity or more a part of the totality of humankind ? Detached . You're literally detached from one planet , captured by another . Your only link to reality is the Earth out there ; fortunate - 1y , it stays in view the whole time .

There're a lot of suspicions that the International Space Station is never going to become reality . Is it going to be some future project that never happens ?

There're a lot of suspicions that the International Space Station is never going to become reality . Is it going to be some future project that never happens ? I believe it's certainly for real . It without question has suffered a lot of delays . But there's hardware sitting on the pad right now and it's due to go off in December . It is a reality . It has just taken longer to get literally off the ground .

Do you think that this Shuttle mission will reignite the public's passion for space and get us to Mars sooner ?

How long do we ordinary beings have to wait to feel the weightlessness ? I just can't wait .

Post office offer lots of services nowadays , don ' t they ? Years age , you only really used the post office to send mail , save money , and send or collect money . Nowadays , they offer so many services , you hardly know which one to choose . Take mailing for example . Do you send something first class or second class or do you use EMS ? I save money in a post office saving account . There used to be just one kind of account , but now there are several . They each have different conditions and interest rates . You can buy things at post office that were never sold there before . You can buy sweets and chocolates , newspapers , birthday and Christmas cards ...

Get up as early as six o'clock only to be jammed at every crossroad and still late for work . What a life ! I've had enough of it . Cool down , man . Everyone is fed up with the rush-hour traffic . But life isn't really all that . You should take the initiative and make some changes first . What should I do then ? I recommend you ride a bike instead of commuting by bus . It may offer you many benefits . First , it's good for your health . I'm afraid it's not necessary for me to further elaborate . While lots of people spend time like an hour each morning exercising , a bike ride to work not only builds you up , but also makes full use of time . You might as well sleep out for a longer hour .

Stephanie ! Did you just get to school ? But you were up and about when I left the dorm this morning ! That was about an hour and a half ago . This happens all the time ! Why do you always take so long It ' s a skill . What can I say ? I don ' t know why , I just have a long routine . Please explain because it makes no sense to me . How can a girl ' s routine be so complicated ? You get up , you shower , you get dressed , you brush your teeth , you ' re out the door . Half an hour , tops . Jacob , you have the luxury of having a haircut that rarely needs styling . I don ' t . I have to set aside about an hour and a half to get ready in the mornings . Every day , I wake up and head straight for the shower . Every second day , I wash my hair . If it ' s a hair-washing day , I frequently need to wash my hair twice because it gets really oily . Then I usually put in a conditioner and have to rinse that out too . Because my hair is so long , I seldom manage to take a shower in under twenty minutes . Afterwards , I often put on a pot of coffee and get dressed while I wait for it to brew . I take a long time to get dressed in the morning . Every now and then I remember to choose my outfit the night before , but usually I do it in the morning . In all , getting dressed takes about half an hour , at which time my hair is now semi-dry so then I have to style my hair . From time to time I ' ll put my hair up , butoften times I bloody it straight . And then , because of the texture of my hair , I regularly have to flat-iron it to keep it from frizzing . That ' s another twenty minutes or so . After that , I have my daily makeup routine .

European countries are relatively small . France looks quite big in Europe , but compared to many countries in other continents , it ' s not very large at all .

What do you think about all the different diets that people go on ? I don't think dieting is good for you . It's much better to eat a balanced diet and to never get overweight to begin with !

They don't have to cut out fattening foods altogether , though . So you think it's OK for people who are dieting to eat chocolate , don't you ?

Did you see the way that Brian came to work yesterday ? Ever since he came back from that conference in Silicon Valley , he's been coming to work dressed in jeans and sweatshirts . It's like he's decided to make himself at home in his office . I don't know how long it'll take before the management talks to him about it . He was really influenced by the way they do things on the west coast . I guess the working atmosphere is a lot more relaxed and casual in California . It comes from the information technology industry .. there isn't such a large division between home and office , so people want to work in the clothes they feel more relaxed in . Maybe so , but it seems kind of strange , which the rest of us in white shirts , dark suites , and ties . It's not as bad as that ... We are allowed to wear more casual jackets and trousers . Besides , didn't you hear what Brian found on his desk this morning ? What's that ?

Hey , Jeff , where's your stereo ? I needed some money , so I hocked it last week . You must have been really hurting for cash to have done that . I had just enough money to make ends meet until payday . Then last Wednesday I received a phone bill to the tune of $ 195 . 00 . I hit the ceiling when I saw that . It sounds like you weren't expecting that .

I'm planning to buy a bicycle . As you are quite a cycling enthusiast , I wish you might give me some advice . With pleasure , chap . But before I start , I need to know what you want a bike for ? My purposes are two-fold . On the one hand , I've grown bored of commuting on suffocating buses every day and decided to ride to work . On the other hand , bicycling is a sport , and I intend to build up my body through constantly taking a ride over the weekends . Cycling during weekends ? Do you me riding on the mountainous countryside just the neighboring towns ? Does that make any difference ?

On the other hand , bicycling is a sport , and I intend to build up my body through constantly taking a ride over the weekends . Cycling during weekends ? Do you me riding on the mountainous countryside just the neighboring towns ? Does that make any difference ? Can't be greater . If you ride on bumpy , hilly roads , a mountain bike is what you need . But if you just ride comfortably along the city lanes , you might choose a road bike .

Is there a lot of crime in your city ? There ' s some , but I don ' t think it ' s a big problem . A lot of it is petty crime , burglary and car theft . There ' s very little major crime . It ' s the same in my city . We also have a lot of drug addicts . A lot of the crime is committed by drug addicts who need money for drugs . That happens in many places . In my city , there is a very good drug rehabilitation program . The police and courts are also tough on people who commit crimes , but I don ' t know if that ' s the reason for our relatively low crime rate . Some people believe that a tough approach is better . Other prefer a more lenient approach .

Look at this survey conducted by a website . A quarter of the employees will spend an average of 10 minutes everyday online doing personal things . Hi , Francis , what about you ? Well , I just spend 15 minutes as so checking my stock bonds and booking an air ticket for my mother . Anyway , I have done all my work and it is about the time to leave . Though our company doesn ' t have a return policy , limiting the personal use of internet , I don ' t think the boss will like us to do that . Certainly , work always comes first . But it is lucky for us . The company computers don ' t have software keeping tracks of websites we visit . I have shopped too often online these days .

Mr . Smith , I would like to get right to the point here . First , we need to talk about how much each company will pay . Well , we want to have the largest share . Our company is much larger than yours , and we have been in business longer . Let's look at that another way . The major point is the value that we add , not who has been in business longer , or is bigger . What are you thinking about ? We do not want to place ourselves in an inferior position . We are a good , small company---that's why you are interested .

Steven , what's your idea of price ? The best we can do is $ 120 per case . I'm afraid that's impossible . You can't expect us to reduce it to that extent . I think you are well informed about the prevailing market . Some Spanish firms are offering the same at much lower prices . Price can't be separated from quality . A comparison of the quality of our products with that of rival goods will show you that ours is far superior .

But your price is still on the high side even if we take quality into consideration . How about meeting each other half way ?
I'm afraid that's impossible . You can't expect us to reduce it to that extent . I think you are well informed about the prevailing market . Some Spanish firms are offering the same at much lower prices . Price can't be separated from quality . A comparison of the quality of our products with that of rival goods will show you that ours is far superior . It's true yours are of better quality . But your price is still on the high side even if we take quality into consideration . How about meeting each other half way ? Well , I'll have to think about it and get back to you in about 30 minutes .

are you working overtime again ? Over the last two weeks , you have worked overtime every day without a break ! Your company is draining the life out of you ! I know , but I don't have a choice , my boss has complete control over our work schedules . I haven't made it out of the office before 9 PM a single day this week . Well , I hope they're paying you the big bucks for all this work ... No , not exactly , I'm working for minimum wage . And they don't give extra pay for overtime . Overtime is our own time . What ? ! Isn't there a law against that , I think there is some legislation that requires employers to give their employees a fair rate of wages . You should know your rights ! If you are putting in so many hours , they should give you some kind of compensation .

Hi , Lucy , you are very popular with people around you , what are your tricks ? Thank you for saying so . I don ' t know , probably because I like sharing my experience and knowledge with them . I think this kind of communication helps to improve our work efficiency and also helps to get along with colleagues . Sharing knowledge can be very settled and some second stances . People may think you are telling them how to do their work . If they take it personally , they feel angry at you and even become reluctant to support you at work . That is true . Some people will misunderstand your intention and lets you do it in the long threatening way . For example , it is not sensible at all to arguing with the others or correcting someone in front of other people . To show your friendliness and willingness to share is much more important than to show off . You are quite right . Thank you for sharing your experience with me . I learned a lot .

There are so many environment problems in the world today . Do you think we can really solve them all or will destroy the world ? I hope that world leaders can get together and agree on a plan for action , but I doubt it ' ll happen before it ' s too late . We need to solve the problem of air pollution before we destroy the atmosphere . There ' s lots of clean , modern technology , but companies in developed countries say it ' s expensive . Developing countries put more emphasis on economic development than on environment protection . Everyone is looking at the issue in the short term , rather than the long term . It ' s the same with the destruction of the rainforests . Countries and companies just want the wood . They ' re not thinking about the long-term damage to the forests . We should also remember that the forests are an important natural habitat for thousands of species of animal and plant life . In other parts of the world , especially in Africa , there is a problem with desertification . Climate change and over-farming are causing farmland to turn into desert . In means that people cannot grow enough food .

We were even thinking about buying a camera . I don't understand how he could have such a perfect-looking box . That's no problem . He just has a friend who works in a shop that can do plastic wrap . That's easy . And probably it's the same shop he got the boxes from . Maybe his friend works in an electronics store . They sell video cameras there . Probably they had a couple video camera boxes lying around . So they get the idea of wrapping bricks to sell to fools like you . Twenty dollars a brick . That's a good profit if they can sell enough bricks .

That was a beautiful car . It ' s a new car , but it ' s totaled . Well , your insurance covers sufficient money to replace it . So you don ' t need to worry . I don ' t think I could afford that kind of car again . I think I ' ll have to choose something that is not as hard to replace . Since you are not the one who caused the accident , your insurance cost should be the same . What will happen if I chose a smaller car ? Would the payments be the same ?

My wife and I are thinking about taking our parents with us on a vacation . Do you have any suggestion about where to go ? The choice of destination is very important . It will too energetic for the old people if you make an excursion or go to climb mountains . But they'll be interested in going to the historical places of interest where they can have fun .

That will allow both you and your parents to enjoy yourselves . What should we bring besides a change of clothes , money and some snacks ?

Now we have settled the terms of payment . Is it possible to effect shipment during September ? I don't think we can . Then when is the earliest we can expect shipment ?

Then when is the earliest we can expect shipment ? By the middle of October , I think . That's too late . You see , November is the season for this commodity in our market , and our Customs formalities are rather complicated . I understand . Besides , the flow through the marketing channels and the red tape involved take at least a couple of weeks . Thus , after shipment it will be four to five weeks altogether before the goods can reach our retailers . The goods must therefore be shipped before October ; otherwise we won't be in time for the selling season .

My husband and I had no problem with the food , but if you listened to her , then it would seem like I fed her old meat and rotten vegetables . There's just nothing can please her .

How did you choose courses when you were abroad ? That's a very good question . Choosing proper courses and effectively planning a college schedule is very important to the progress toward your educational goal . In order to do these wisely and effectively , you should consult with a Program Adviser or Academic Counselor . Wait a minute . There are some new terms for me . I can hardly follow you . Ok , I will go into more detail . A Program Adviser or an Academic Counselor is usually an experienced professor who is responsible for all the necessary academic counseling through graduation . You can discuss with him the program selection , changing or adding a program , the requirements for graduation , and other problems related to your study .

I think I'll have to experience a very difficult period when I get there .

It's very nice of you to invite me . I'm very glad you could come , Mr . Liu . Will you take a seat at the head of the table ? It's an informal dinner , please don't stand on ceremony ... Mr . Liu , would you like to have some chicken ? Thank you . This is my first time to come to a Chinese restaurant . Could you tell me the different features of Chinese food ? Generally speaking , Cantonese food is a bit light ; Shanghai food is rather oily ; and Hunan dishes are very spicy , having a strong and hot taste . Chinese dishes are exquisitely prepared , delicious , and very palatable . They are very good in colour , flavour , and taste .

Look at these clothes designed by top fashion designer like Versacci , Calvin Klein , and Vivienne Westwood . What do you think of them ? Well , they look lovely , but they ' re not very practical . I mean , would you wear that dress to the office or walking down the street ? I know what you mean . People would stare at you in amazement if you wore something like that in an everyday situation . I suppose only extravagant rich people wear them at cocktail parties . Maybe . I ' m not sure why they have fashion shows like this . Hardly anyone will buy those clothes . The clothes you see are nothing like the ones that ordinary people wear . It seems like a waste of money . I think that the designers hold these fashion shows for a few reasons . First , it ' s just like a big party . They can meet each other and network . The other thing is that it is great advertising . All the journalists and photographers are there . Thirdly , it give them a chance to show what they would like to see people wearing .

In a way , the designers are saying ' don ' t worry about what others think . Wear what you like ! ' .

They try to see who can be the most extreme and outrageous , but still stylish .

Good morning golf aficionados ! My name is Rick Fields , and you guessed it , I am here with my main man , Bob Copeland . Thank you , Rick ! As you can see , ladies and gentleman , we are here in beautiful Pebble Beach where the top golfers in the world are trying to win the grand prize of one million dollars ! Whoa , that ' s a lot of cash ! Let ' s go to the course and see how Tiger Woods is doing . All right , we are here at the eighth hole . It ' s a par four , and has some very difficult hazards which many golfers find difficult to avoid . Although , I did see Jack Nicklaus hit a hole in one on this very same hole ! Tiger Woods is about to tee off , and let ' s see if he has the same luck as Jack . Tiger is asking his caddie for his driver and , he seems to be very nervous .

Tiger Woods is about to tee off , and let ' s see if he has the same luck as Jack . Tiger is asking his caddie for his driver and , he seems to be very nervous . Oh no ! Not a good swing at all ! It ' s definitely not his day today . On the seventh hole he got a bogey and before that he barely made par . He will definitely not get a birdie on this shot .

It seems that his ball has flown somewhere deep in the trees . He is having a hard time finding it and even his caddie has climbed a tree to try and spot it .
Well , we've settled everything in connection with this transaction except the question of the mode of payment . Because this order is a comparatively big one , we would like to pay by time L / C , say , 60 days L / C . Payment by sight L / C is quite usual in international trade , and as a rule , we only accept payment by sight L / C . But we have only moderate mean at hand . If you can do us a special favor this time and allow us to delay payment , we'd really appreciate it . Accepting time L / C is unusual and I've never done it before , but we could consider your request . I'll phone our company to see what they say .

Any plans tonight ? Not really , do you ? Well , I am wondering if we took a hang-out for a drink or something . You know , I just came back from a really tough interview . I was quite nervous during the interview . I really want to have the job . Right now , I am still a little on the edge . I am not sure if I could convince them during the interview . Take it easy . It is all over now . How was it going , anyway ? I don ' t know . I think I did well in the paper exams . I was prepared to answer a lot of questions , but they didn't ask those as I expected . To my surprise , the manager tried to talk about the Chinese poesy with me .

More than American parents are . And that is good . American kids don't study enough .

I think it's a good thing . In America , too many parents don't pay attention .

Howdy ! Nice car ! What seems to be the problem ? I don ' t know ! This stupid old car started spewing white smoke and it just died on me . Luckily , I managed to start it up and drive it here . What do you think it is ? Not sure yet . How about you pop the hood and we can take a look . Mmmm , it doesn ' t look good . What do you mean ? My daddy gave me this car for my birthday last month . It ' s brand new ! Well missy , the white smoke that you saw is steam from the radiator . You overheated your engine so now the pistons are busted and so is your transmission .

The company is selecting three employees to attend the marketing seminar next month . Did you put your name in for it ? No , I don't really care too much for seminars ... I find them to be either boring ot useless . I mean , how much can you really learn in one afternoon ? It's not just about the things that you learn , you know ... seminars are a really great opportunity to mingle and network with professionals in our industry from all over the nation . You can learn a few things , but more importantly , you rub shoulders with the business leaders and make contacts that could lead to potential sales or partnerships in the future . The social mixers are always more important than the seminars anyway . I'm still not too jazzed about going ... I feel kind of awkward in those cocktail party situations . Well , what if I told you the seminar is going to be held in Hawaii ? Does that perk your interest ?

Did you hear ? The state is thinking of legalizing gambling in our city ! Soon we are gonna have amazing hotels and casinos here which will be good for our business ! Are you serious ? Gambling is a vice industry built on deception and fed by the intentional exploitation of human weakness for the sole purpose of monetary gain ! It disgusts me . What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ? Well , to begin with , Gambling is addictive , ruins marriages , destroys families and bankrupts communities . Once you are addicted it is very difficult to stop . People have lost their houses , cars and been left out on the street after becoming addicted . Secondly , it exploits because men become addicted to gambling most often because of the action and risk . Women gamble to escape , and senior citizens will start gambling for the social interaction . Underage gamblers often start gambling on sports with friends and then illegal bookies . Geez ! Now that I think about it , maybe legalizing gambling isn ' t such a good idea ! Although , I have been to Las Vegas , and I didn ' t become addicted or anything like that .

Well , I hate the noise in the city , but I love being around lost of people . The problem is that you can ' t have lots of people and have peace and quiet . The two just don ' t go together .

Those are today ' s top stories . Now let ' s go to John for the weather . John , what does the forecast look like for our weekend travelers ? I ' m afraid we ' re in for a rough weekend , Marry . There is a storm system moving through the East Coast . It will be drizzling all day today , and there ' s a 60 percent chance of thunderstorms this evening . It will be warm and humid all weekend . In the Midwest , expect strong winds and a low of around 40 degrees . That ' s pretty chilly for the summer ! Will it rain on Saturday ? Unfortunately , yes . It will be clear early Saturday morning but there is a high chance of showers and thunderstorms later in the day . There is a severe thunderstorm warning for some parts of the Southeast . Folks in those areas might see some hail and flooding , especially in areas that have been experiencing record high rainfalls . That certainly sounds like a dreary Saturday .

It gets better on Sunday , though . The storm systems move east and the skies will clear up at night . It will still be rather cool , with highs in the low 50s . The West Coast will be experiencing some unusually chilly weather , but at least the sun will come out . I advise weekend travelers to be careful , especially while driving . Back to you , Mark .

I saw on TV that there is an entertainment item , bungee in Beijing Longtanhu Park . Except that the height is not exiting enough . You say how high can be exciting ? The highest bungee spot in the world is located in Mount Kikicama , South Africa , which is 216 meters high . A cable car in a scenic spot in Switzerland is 160 meters high . I know that Frenchmen installed the Bungee cord between two tall buildings . It is said that Bungee was originally a grown-up ceremony of the indigenous people of New Guinea . People stood on branches of the tree , which was over 30 meters high . Their feet were fastened with canes and they jumped off from where they stood . When they almost reached the ground , they suddenly stopped to prove their bravery and express that they were able to endure the hardships of life independently .

Hi , Alan . I feel very nervous because I am going to have a job interview next Monday . Could you please give me some suggestions ? Sure . Firstly , it is very important for you to be punctual .

Secondly , you need to create a good image in a limited time . I will try my best to make a good impression , but it is always easier said that done .

What type of movies do you like ? I like all sorts of movies , primarily drama and science fiction . That's an interesting combination . How about western movies ? Western and horror are the two types of movies I don't care for . Why don't you like horror ? They're entertaining .
I like all sorts of movies , primarily drama and science fiction . That's an interesting combination . How about western movies ? Western and horror are the two types of movies I don't care for . Why don't you like horror ? They're entertaining . Some are entertaining , but I find most of them stupid and childish . For example , I don't understand why a person always goes into the house alone when something is suspicious .
I do feel like a trip to Florida on such a gloomy day in New York , to enjoy the sunshine while lying on the beaches of Florida . That's a great idea . It's the best season for tourists in Florida . You can also get a good sun-tan there . But if the sunshine is too strong , it might damage the eyes and the skin . You can put on your shades . And remember don't make your skin look like a tomato . Or else after that your skin will begin to flake off . You may even wind up with skin cancer . I see . Overdoing it will do more harm than good .

I suppose you like cinematography and costumes and that sort of stuff ? Yes , I do . The look of a picture is very important . I think sound is even more important ! Guns , bombs , sirens--that's what makes a movie exciting ! You wouldn't know a good movie even if it bit you on the nose . In my book , all a good movie needs is a chase scene and lots of things that blow up .

Your own kids would get Suzy's cold . I think it would be better to have a good babysitter here . But I don't know who to ask . I need someone more mature than Jill .

But I don't know who to ask . I need someone more mature than Jill . It might even be for two or three days . I know who we can ask . There is a girl I know , Sara Ralston . She is 17 , and she will usually take this kind of job . I know her from my church , and I trust her completely .

What kind of packing do you plan to use for this consignment of goods ? Cartons . Is that okay ?

So they're not only shockproof but also dampproof . In that case , I guess I can rest assured .

Tiffany , why are more and more people turning to the Web to find a mate ? I think that , as more people use the Internet for both work and pleasure , it makes more sense as a tool to connect with people , and the stigma of meeting someone online is reduced . There are actually special sites for people looking to date within their specific ethnic group and age group . But how should you screen potential mates ? Do you suggest talking to them on the phone right away or communicating via e-mail ? I would say do not make the e-mail exchange too long . A lot of times a connection via e-mail creates almost a false sense of intimacy . Quickly make sure there is a connection in the physical world . Can you give us any other safety tips for people pursuing relationships on the Net ?

This is a very difficult way to learn . What do natives get ? They get higher level English , which is more formal than everyday spoken English . They also deal with matters of style and creativity .

Earning extra income on the Internet is easier than you might think . After I started selling traditional craft items on the Internet last year , I have really been able to make bank doing something I love . Is that right ? I hear all these horror stories of internet business crashing because there is not enough of a customer base yet . How can you be sure your idea will cash in ? To run a successful internet business , it requires a little research and relatively small investment . You've got to have a good idea of some kind of product that is in demand or would be popular . That's marketing research ... But what about getting started once you have an idea ? After you have your great idea , then you can set up shop by registering a domain name , creating a website , an email address , and a hosting service . If you want to go all out on your website , you can put together shopping cart technology , but that can be pricey to start out with .

I got the Scientific Research Prize from the Gansu government for my achievements in the Northwest Regional Economy Development Research Project . Can you work under pressure ? Working under pressure is exciting and challenging . I don ' t mind . In fact , I am very efficient when certain pressure is exerted on the work . What are the problems you have encountered in your job and how do you solve them ? There was a time when both the clerical assistant and the secretary resigned at the same time . I then had to handle their work temporarily . The workload was incredibly heavy . So I started to set priorities for the jobs and hired part-time staff to handle routine work . Finally , I managed to keep the operation smooth until we found someone to fill the vacancy .

It's going to strike 12 o'clock . Let's get the firecrackers ready , Rose . Aren't firecrackers forbidden in the city ? Well yes , but they are not allowed only in downtown areas . It's OK here .

Let's go out and set off firecrackers out there . Fantastic ! The whole city is echoing with crackling sounds ! What other activities will you have tomorrow ?

As we know , mobile phones bring people great convenience and shorten the distance among friends and relatives . It bears a great many of advantages , but also some weak points . Is it ?

Some people pay too much attention to their mobile phones .

Your intention is good , but I still can't agree with you . If no one would like to share it with you , you have to pay it all by yourself .

What do you think of the way people use and treat animals ? I think most people treat animals well , but we are often cruel to animals . When we raise animals for food , the conditions they live in are often poor . Perhaps people should stop eating animals . We could grow more crops . What would you do with all the animals ? You couldn ' t just let them go . Besides , some people would still hunt them . Meat has become an integral part of our diet . We could provide them with better conditions anyway . We should certainly try to improve the conditions at zoos . We should try to recreate the natural conditions as much as possible .

Fine , but I ' m keeping the antique gramophone as my grandfather gave it to me . I believe that was a wedding present to both of us , Joanne . And you hardly ever use it ! He ' s my grandfather , and he never really liked you anyway !

Hello there , welcome to Wine World . Let me know if I can help you out at all . Um , yes , please , I could really use some help . I'm going over to my boss'house for dinner tonight and don't know what kind of wine I should bring . OK , do you know what kind of food will be served ? Well , his wife is Japanese . He said she makes really good sushi . Hmm , that's a bit of a challenge . Sushi is notoriously difficult to pair with wine . Well , let's see . have to be a white wine , of course .

OK , do you know what kind of food will be served ? Well , his wife is Japanese . He said she makes really good sushi . Hmm , that's a bit of a challenge . Sushi is notoriously difficult to pair with wine . Well , let's see . have to be a white wine , of course . Why ? Wouldn't a red wine go well with sushi ? No , I don't think so . Sushi is a very delicately flavored food , and red wine would be a jarring contrast . You need a white wine , which has more subtle flavors , to complement the fish .

So should I get a bottle of Chardonnay ? That's a white wine , right ? Yes , Chardonnay is a white wine , but I'm not sure it'd be your best bet . Chardonnay is one of the more fullbodied whites , and tends to be a bit oaky . I'd suggest that you go for something brighter , like this Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand .

The label says it's got " attractive citrus and grassy aromas that give way to crisp , mineral flavors and a bonedry finish . Serve chilled . " Oh , no , how long will it take to chill the wine ? I'm on my way to the dinner now .

We don't have quite as extensive a selection over here , but ... this Rhone Valley white would be lovely . All right . What varietal is that ? Well , this is a French wine , so they don't always specify the varietal on the label . The French believe that the soil a grape is grown in is one of the most important factors in the final flavor of the wine . This wine is probably a blend of a few different types of grapes , mostly Viognier , I'd guess .

It's not quite as dry as the Sauvignon Blanc we were looking at earlier , which means it's more approachable . It's light and crisp , with a bit of a vanilla aroma .
You are too picky . No , I'm not . Hey , look at that guy over there . Which guy ? The guy in the blue shirt at the table by the window . I can't see him . Where ?

How does the political system work in your country ? We have hundreds of constituencies and the votes in each one elect a member of parliament . Most people call them mp ' s . Each mp belongs to a political party , right ? Almost all of them do . A few are independent . That means that they do not belong to a party . If one party more than half of the mp ' s . they form a government . That means that they choose a prime minister can cabinet members . What ' s a cabinet ?

Hey , Susan . Have you got a sec ? I have some questions about my paycheck . You bet , Emily . Pull up a chair . Well , this is my first paycheck here in the States and there are a few things I don't understand . First of all , what is this FICA , and SUI Y tax , and why are there deductions both for Medicare and for my health insurance plan ? OK , let's start from the top of your pay stub . This number here represents your gross pay . Then here we have a series of deductions . First off are the federal ones . FICA stands for Federal Insurance Contribution Act , or something like that . It's your federal income tax . And then there's Social Security and Medicare , which are both federal programs to help you out after you retire or if you were unable to work .

Today people are hearing about information superhighways and the intermet . Is this change going to be beneficial for theindividuals like you and me . Yes , I think so . My friend once used it mostly to play chess , but now he has learnt how to do other things on the Internet . There's no doubt the Internet will be a powerful commercial medium . It'll connect hundreds of millions of customers and open up huge markets for all kinds of products and services . That's true . I can imagine companies sending advertisements directly to customers over the net . Customers , in turn , can examine and compare whatever goods they want to buy and tell their computers to find them at the best price offered .

When you are in a restaurant and you want the waiter to bring the bill , what do you do to attract his attention ? I just make eye contact with him and nod my head .

That seems a little impolite in such a restaurant . That ' s what I thought . I just thought I ' d ask you and see what you thought of it . Anyway , what did you do yesterday evening ?

Thanks for inviting me to your friend ' s wedding . I was surprised to hear the bride and groom talking to each other that way during the marriage ceremony . Is that common ? Well , some people use a standard set of words , but many couples today write their own wedding vows . Your tradition of throwing rice as they got into their car was interesting , but it didn't look like real rice to me . It wasn't . It was birdseed . We don't throw rice anymore because someone discovered that birds come along and eat the rice and have trouble digesting it . Oh , I didn't think of that . Well , this reception reminds me of weddingparties back in China . Plenty of food and drink , music and dancing , and interesting traditions .

Good evening , madam . May I help you ? I want a facial . But this is the first time I've come here , so can you tell me how you do it ? Sure . Most facials start with a thorough cleaning . Then we usually use a toner to invigorate the skin , followed by exfoliation treatment-a peeling mask or scrub that removes the dead cells that make the skin lock dull . After that , we'll massage your face and neck with oil or cream to improve the circulation and relieve the tension , followed by a mask to moisturize and soften the skin . That's exactly what I want . How long does it take ? We have half-hour and one-hour treatments .

Did you set your clock forward for daylight savings time ? What ? Why do we have to do that ? Well , at the start of the spring we usually have more daylight in the mornings and less in the afternoon . This is basically due to our position on the planet and the rotation of the earth . In any case , to take better advantage of the daylight available , we compensate by moving our clocks forward one hour . I see . That ' s convenient ! I never understood things like this , such as GMT . I never know what time zone we are in or when to change my clock ! That just stands for Greenwich Mean Time . Here in California , we are in Pacific Standard Time , that is eight time zones west of Greenwich . Remember when we were in Beijing ? Well , then we were in China Standard Time , and that ' s eight time zones east of Greenwich !

What seems to be the problem ? I have a really bad toothache ! My cheek is swollen and I can ' t eat anything . Let ' s have a look . Mmmm . This doesn ' t look too good .

Come in and have some coffee , Anna . The kids have just gone out to the mall to hang out with their friends . I saw a lot of teenagers when Alan and I were there yesterday . They spend hours there , especially on weekends . Speaking of that trip , Alan bought a shirt at a department store , but the sleeves are too long . Do you know a seamstress or tailor who can shorten them ? I know several . But wouldn't it be easier to take the shirt back and exchange it for the right size ?

What reasons do westerners drink for ? I don't think drinking requires any special purposes . For us people in the West , the purpose is generally quite simple-to savor the wine . I know what you mean there . In many circumstances , people kiss the baby for the nurse's sake . And that's what we do when drinking at a banquet . Even though we do have a rich variety of brand-name wines , like Matai and Showing Yellow Rice Wine , alcohol is usually served not for the enjoyment itself . We just be its Dionysus effect to enliven the atmosphere , improve personal association with each other and solidify friendship . And to make matters worse , you're urged to drink " one more cup time and again . There is too much etiquette to observe . You'II be set free at a Western banquet It seems we are keen to make it convenient as possible to savor the wine , its color , its aroma and its delicate taste . Yeah . It's of supreme importance that the goblet , table-cloth , and plates should be made shiningly clean , so that the color of the wine is clearly visible and the delicate aroma and taste are fully appreciable .

Do you think discrimination against women in the work force is still prevalent even today ? From my own experience as a career woman , I would have to say that while things are getting better now than they used to be , it is still a widespread problem . Society is changing , but there is still a glass ceiling for women in many career tracks . do you think the glass ceiling phenomena is because of traditional social customs ? Or are there more issues coming into play ? I think it's a very complicated issue . A part of the difficulties women have advancing in the work force are due to few opportunities and many male managers . Don't underestimate the good ole ' boy system . Men have power , so it's easier for them to stay in power . What about affirmative action ? Hasn't legislation changed a lot of the make hierarchy ?

It ' s a beautiful day here in New Zealand at the Men ' s Volleyball world championship . My name is Rick Fields and I ' m joined by the man with the plan , Bob Copeland . Thank you , Rick . We ' Ve got a very exciting encounter ahead of us today as two powerhouse teams , Brazil and China , face off against each other and try to qualify for the next round . Without a doubt , both teams are in top shape and this will prove to be a competitive match . The ref signals the start of the game and here we go . Ribero serves and China quickly receives the ball . Chen bumps it to the setter , and ... a very nice set by Chen ! Xu spikes it ! Wow , what a great hit ! The Brazilian blockers anticipated the play and tried to block him but he managed to get the ball in ! It ' s China ' s service now . What a superb jump serve by Li , oh , and we have a let serve . The ball was coming in fast and almost made it over the net .
Hey honey ! Where were you ? I decided to take Kenny to the park and get some fresh air . How was it ? Were there a lot of kids ? It wasn't too crowded , but we had a great time ! We got on the see-saw together , then went on a couple of different slides and then I tried to go with him in the jungle gym , but I didn't fit . Sounds like fun ! When we go he always just likes to play in the sandbox .

We can offer you a 5 % discount . Your price is rather out of line , much higher than we expected . We can't buy with your offer . Well , what do you suggest then ? How about 8 % ? When we say your prices are much too high , we don't mean the are higher only by 2 or 3 percent . If we are to place an order with you . I think a discount of about 15 % would be sufficient . What ? You want to drive me bankrupt ! You can't expect us to make such a large reduction .

Tom , you look thoughtful and unhappy recently . What's wrong with you ? Lily broke up with me last week . In fact , she dumped me . Why ?

Thanks for inviting me to your friend ' s wedding . I was surprised to hear the bride and groom talking to each other that way during the marriage ceremony . Is that common ? Well , some people use a standard set of words , but many couples today write their own wedding vows . Your tradition of throwing rice as they got into their car was interesting , but it didn't look like real rice to me . It wasn't . It was birdseed . We don't throw rice anymore because someone discovered that birds come along and eat the rice and have trouble digesting it . Oh , I didn't think of that . Well , this reception reminds me of weddingparties back in China . Plenty of food and drink , music and dancing , and interesting traditions .

So , we start here at the car park and walk along the path to the waterfall . right . Then we turn left and walk up this small hill . The view from the top of the hill is worth the climb . We can eat a snack there .

Come in and have some coffee , Anna . The kids have just gone out to the mall to hang out with their friends . I saw a lot of teenagers when Alan and I were there yesterday . They spend hours there , especially on weekends . Speaking of that trip , Alan bought a shirt at a department store , but the sleeves are too long . Do you know a seamstress or tailor who can shorten them ? I know several . But wouldn ' t it be easier to take the shirt back and exchange it for the right size ?

I am really exhausted , you know , I have been working without the weekend for two weeks . My boss always asks us to work overtime . Does your boss pay you for the over-time work ? No . But he provides free meals and sometimes gives us some small gifts . Many of us get very tired of this , and we'd rather have weekends than stay in the office .

We all know about that , but we have no choice . The chairman of the trade union says he is going to negotiate with the management .

Have you followed the value of dollar lately ? How could I help but follow it ? The fluctuation of dollar is killing my company ! The exchange rates are eating into our profits , and we can't do anything about it . It's really frustrating , isn't it ? I have the same problem . I would feel a lot better if the currency was a little more stable . With the way the dollar plummeting lately , my securities have gone up in smoke . Every day I have less money ! I haven't spent anything , it is just melting away because of the shifts in exchange rate . What we really should be making investment in is the Euro . I've followed the Euro's progress over the last quarter , I think it's about time to buy in .

My disposable contact lenses . They're great for camping ! Cool ! Each contact comes in its own saline solution ? Yep . They're prescription contacts with UV protection . Wow !

You should have seen the T . V . show that was on last night , the topic it covered was really interesting , animal rights . Do you really believe in that ? If they are going to focus on something , they should do it on civil rights . Yes , but we can ' t deny that animals are vulnerable , defenseless , and are completely at the mercy of human beings . I understand your point , but we continue to have transgressions against human rights . If so much attention weren ' t devoted to the topic of animals , we would then concentrate more on saving a human being instead of protecting a koala . You can ' t compare apples and oranges . I believe that both topics are important and that we can ' t ignore them , the mistreatment of animals can cause a great environmental imbalance . I believe that governments should prohibit activities like poaching .

Lester , you are really fantastic at automobile repair . Thanks , June . But I think I need to be certified as a mechanic 5 before I ' m allowed to repair cars for a living . That ' s not a big problem . There are many small schools for adults like you who can study to be certified . I guess I never thought of that before . And you can easily get a student loan from a vocational school , or from the government .

Could you do something to advance your time of shipment ? Well , our manufacturers are fully committed at the moment . I'm afraid it's very difficult to improve any further on the time . I hope you'll try to convince them to step up production . We check their production schedule against our orders almost every day . As new orders keep coming in , they are working three shifts to step up production . I'm sorry , but we simply cannot commit ourselves beyond what the production schedule can fulfill . Well , in that case , there is nothing more to be said . What's your last word as to the date then ?

How do I apply to an American university ? You should go to the library to find some information about American universities , and write to the Admission Office . Then the Admission Office will send you application forms and other related materials . From experience , many applicants write to several universities instead of just one . I was told that it took a lot of time and effort to apply . That is true . I ' ll list for you the requirements of almost all the universities . First of all , you need official transcripts of your undergraduate work , three letters of recommendation from your professors who know your competence , and the official TOEFL ( Test of English as a Foreign Language ) score ( It ' s usually 550 ) . Then you need a financial guarantee , and an application fee of 25 dollars . What's to come next ?

I like chess better than xiangqi . And you ? For my part , xiangqi . Maybe it's because my girlfriend is Chinese . I think chess is more reasonable . You see , each side has eight pawns , a larger number than that of the soldiers in xiangqi . A true battle should be like that . Soldiers should outnumber the commanders . Quite right . And unlike the soldiers in xiangqi , the pawns in chess can promote once they reach the furthest rank . It is very agreeable to grant merits to people with good performance . Correct ! Another contrast is the rules for the general and the king . It seems the general or marshal in xiangqi is much too incompetent . They are required to stay in the palace , waiting to be checked and fleeing for life under the cover of the guards . Look at the king in chess , he is much more capable .

I think this demonstrates the relatively higher social status of aristocratic women in medieval Europe than in China .

Both board games use a total of 32 pieces , but xiangqi is played on a 9 - by - 9 board , bigger than the 8 - by - 8 board used in chess .

Which social problem do you think the government needs to concentrate on most ? I think housing is a big problem . There are thousands of homeless people on the streets . How would you solve the problem ? I have a good idea to solve it . The government could provide some money for homeless people to build their own homes . It would probably be very expensive .

Do you have any in a size six ?

Good day ! What can we do for you ? I'm considering buying a new car , the old one hasn't been running too well recently , and was wondering what kind of credit you can offer me . Buying a new car is a big expense ; we understand that , so we have a variety of loans to suit your needs . That's great . I'm looking to borrow quite a large sum , though . With our Personal Automobile Consumer Loan , the borrower can borrow up to 80 % of the purchase price .

The car I'm interested in is priced at 120,000 RIB , but I think I can get a bit of discount on that . I can afford to put up around 40,000 RIB myself .

The car I'm interested in is priced at 120,000 RIB , but I think I can get a bit of discount on that . I can afford to put up around 40,000 RIB myself . That's great . You will need to make an initial down payment of 20 % , and then we can get going with this .
Anything else , sir ? That's all for now . How much do I owe you ? That'll be fifty-five dollars and twenty cents . Can't you make it a little cheaper ? Oh , no , sir . We already gave you a discount on each item .
I feel terribly bored . I'm going to take a job . Good . Then I can buy my own car . Splendid . And pay for my own clothes .
Do you take a bus to and from work ? Yeah , everyday . And there ' s only one choice . All the other buses are going the other direction . Hmm . I have the same problem . When I leave work , it ' s always rush hour . So the buses are always crowded . Oh , yeah , it ' s terrible . I will tell you the funniest thing I have seen in China . It ' s when so many people try to get onto one city bus , and the last guy is squeezed in so tight that the door is tightly pressed against his butt . That sounds terrible the way you describe it . But you know , not long ago I really suffered on the bus .

That's what I thought you would do . Listen , I live in a bit of a rough neighborhood . It's just down the street from all the bars . You probably don't want to be walking around after dark . It can't be that bad . I wish it wasn't , but there is actually a lot of crime and prostitution around here . Really ? I never would have guessed . The criminals must only come out in the evenings , because I've never noticed anything strange when I've been at your house in the daytime . Do me a favor , and take a taxi . It'd make me feel a lot better .

I really want to take a nap . I feel very sleepy today . What ' s the matter ? Didn ' t you get enough sleep last night ? I fell asleep very late . It was almost two o ' clock in the morning when I finally fell asleep . Are you worried about something ? Why couldn ' t you sleep ? You know how it is when you ' re in a strange country . Everything is new , and you get tired and nervous sometimes . Then you worry about your family , about conditions back home , about your courses , about your money , about everything . I tried to fall asleep but I just had too much on my mind .

I swear I will never shop at a street market in China . It's a terrible place full of excellent profiteers ! You have to keep an eye whenever it comes to paying for something . cool down , Harry ! What are you really mad about ? Did you get ripped off ? yes . Last Sunday I went to a nearby market . It was on open-air fair . I chanced upon this bag and bought it on the spot , without even trying to strike a bargain . I paid one hundred and twenty . And just is that so ? I'm afraid people here will not take pity on unlucky guys like you . Bargaining has always been an indispensable procedure in business deals . It's the norm of free trade . The seller sets but don't you think it annoying to overcharge the customers by such a handsome margin ?

The other thing to take into account is deductibles . In this pamphlet it says that the minimum amount for deductibles is $ 2000 . what does that mean exactly ?
I see . Here ' s a pamphlet about our home insurance policy . We ' Ve named our policy " umbrella " . May I ask how much you paid for your home and where you live ? These are the two main thing that decide how much your premiums are . I understand . I live in the Oakfield area and paid $ 100,000 for my home . Let me just check that on my computer . Oakfield is a low risk area , so your premiums will probably be around $ 100 a month . The other thing to take into account is deductibles . In this pamphlet it says that the minimum amount for deductibles is $ 2000 . what does that mean exactly ? It means That the first $ 2000 of any claim you make must be paid by you . The insurance policy covers any amount above that , up to the agreed limit .

What do you think is harder , reading or writing ? Well , they ' re completely different . Reading is passive , and writing is active . I don ' t think I understand what you mean . Could you explain a little more ? In reading you need to recognize language by seeing the words on the page and knowing what they are . In writing you have to produce language , you have to create your own words on a blank page . Oh , now I see what you mean . When you ' re reading , you are just looking , but when you are writing , you are actually doing something !

Tiger Woods is about to tee off , and let ' s see if he has the same luck as Jack . Tiger is asking his caddie for his driver and , he seems to be very nervous .

Could you tell me something about the Mid-Autumn Festival ? I find it also very interesting . OK . It falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month . It is said that there is a beautiful goddess Chang'E on the moon who had eaten some sort of elixir and had to depart her husband . She is always expecting to see her husband again . So , later we have the traditional idea that when there is the full moon , it is time for the family members to come together . So , I understand why people eat moon cakes on that day . You are right . In China , ' round ' is an auspicious word . The moon cakes are in round shape . Is it official ?

Yes , but there's a rush on at the moment , and my boss asked me to do some urgent letters .

I think that show biz stars have a really easy life . They have lots of money , so they can buy almost anything they want . They ' re famous , so everyone loves them . I think they must have horrible lives . All the paparazzi take photos of them wherever they go and whatever they do . They must get sick of it . I bet they love it really . Sure , they complain about it , but that just gets them more publicity , doesn ' t it ? I think that few of the show biz stars want any publicity for themselves . They only want it for their films . No way ! They want publicity for themselves , so that they get invited to make more films , go to lots of cocktail parties , and even make albums ! They have such an easy life . They don ' t even pay for drinks when they go to a cocktail party .

I couldn ' t get through a whole game before I had to sit down .

Action movies need to be seen in a theater on a big screen . Oh , yeah , and I did promise to see it with you if we went to that movie last week . But you liked that movie , didn't you ?

Did you hear ? The state is thinking of legalizing gambling in our city ! Soon we are gonna have amazing hotels and casinos here which will be good for our business ! Are you serious ? Gambling is a vice industry built on deception and fed by the intentional exploitation of human weakness for the sole purpose of monetary gain ! It disgusts me . What are you talking about ? How does it exploit people ? Well , to begin with , Gambling is addictive , ruins marriages , destroys families and bankrupts communities . Once you are addicted it is very difficult to stop . People have lost their houses , cars and been left out on the street after becoming addicted . Secondly , it exploits because men become addicted to gambling most often because of the action and risk . Women gamble to escape , and senior citizens will start gambling for the social interaction . Underage gamblers often start gambling on sports with friends and then illegal bookies . Geez ! Now that I think about it , maybe legalizing gambling isn ' t such a good idea ! Although , I have been to Las Vegas , and I didn ' t become addicted or anything like that .
What ' s the difference between football and rugby ? Those tow games are quite different . First , there ' s the size of the teams . In football , a team has 11 players . In rugby there are 15 players on each team . The biggest difference is that in football , only the goalkeeper can use his hands . In rugby , the ball is usually carried forward by players , though kicking is permitted . In rugby , players pass the ball by throwing it to team mates , don ' t they ? That ' s right . However , players can only pass the ball backwards . They cannot pass the ball forwards to their team mates . That ' s a foul . I know how goals are scored in football , but how about in rugby ?

You should go to the course . Also , I am pretty good at taking notes . I can help you on this exam . I will photocopy all my notes , and you can compare them to your notes .

All this makes me feel like an idiot . Don't feel that way . I know you are very smart . Note - taking is a special skill . All students need to learn it . Some people are very smart , but they just haven't learned how to take notes yet . I'm lucky because I had a good English teacher in high school . She taught me how to take good notes . It's not hard .

Can you suggest a few exercise to help me get fit and stretch my muscles a little ? Sure . If you want to stretch your legs , a good exercise is to lift your knee in front of your body , like this . It ' s a very simple exercise , but very effective . I need to excise my arms too . How can I do that ? One good way is to do push-ups . Another way is to use weights . Make sure you grip the weights firmly . You don ' t want to drop them on your feet ! When I do push-ups , should I bend my elbows so that my nose touches the ground ?

OK , Ann , you spent quite a bit of time in Australia recently so why don't you talk about that ? I really liked living in Australia . I was an international student and I studied education at the university of Sydney . And living in Sydney was fantasticbecuase I could go to the beach anytime I wanted and there was a great nightlife in Sydney . There are lots of great clubs . And people were very , very friendly and easy-going and I met a lot of international people in living Sydney . Mm-hm . How long were you there ? I was there for almost a year . Oh , OK .

And I travelled a little bit in Australia . I went up the east coast . Up to Frasier Island . Which is a world heritage site . And I saw dingo running along the beach and sharks in the water . We climbed cliffs and went through a rain forest and went camping and then we went up to the ... , which is a but north . And the further north you go in Australia , the hotter it gets . So we were able to go swimming in the ocean and I went diving for the first time but it was a little bit risky cause I didn't have a diving license , so I went on an introductory dive and I saw a giant clam that had a really purple spongy inside that I was able to touch and then the clam closed up really quickly .

During the last two years , there has been a great increase in goods stolen abroad . If they steal the entire package , that would be theft . So they don't do that . Generally , thieves open the case and take part of the contents out . Then fill the case so that the gross weight will be the same . If the goods are received in apparent good order and condition , the steamship company doesn ' t have liability for pilferage . How do we protect ourselves ? The insurance policy protects us . Is it true that products of high value such as watches , jewels and luxury clothing items are often subject to pilferage ?
Well , Jeff , that was a very productive meeting , I thought . You had some really great ideas in there ! Really ? Well , thanks for saying so . No , I mean it . Look , are you hungry ?

Do you think that climate change is responsible for the recent floods ? It could be . There are floods in this country almost every year , but in recent years they have been more widespread and more frequent . It seems that the climate in this country is changing . The summers are hotter . The last three summers have been the hottest for the past 200 years . There have also been stronger winds . I think that the changing climate is a sign that we are causing too much damage to the environment .

Don't you feel a little strange taking the place of your old boss after he was demoted ? Yes , at first I felt very awkward . After Bill was demoted and then resigned , it was kind of like somebody died ! I mean the atmosphere in the office was like a funeral parlor or something . And then I was afraid people would look at me as a traitor for filling in his spot when the management asked me to ... Did they mutiny ? Thankful , no . I guess everyone understands the opportunity I had to step into a leadership role is so great for my career . I'm really moving up the ladder now that I'm considered a supervisor . After a couple weeks , it was like nothing happened .

This is our rock - bottom price , Mr . Li . We can't make any further concessions . If that's the case , there's not much point in further discussion . We might as well call the whole deal off .

How about meeting each other half way so that business can be concluded ? What is your proposal ?

Since China was open to the outside world , its trade forms have become much more flexible . One of these commonly used forms is co-production . Would you please do a bit explanation of it , Mr . Walker ? Well , under this arrangement two parties cooperate to manufacture a product or a category of products , for example , machine tools for export . Each party produces and supplies a part of the components and parts ; one party is a Chinese enterprise , the other , an overseas firm . Most probably , the foreign counterpart contributes technology and equipment , and sometimes , parts and components , while the Chinese enterprises factory building , labor and other resources to the cooperative production . They join hands and fulfill orders together by an agreement or a contract . I suppose that the assembling of these components and parts , particularly the marketing of the finished products should take place in China . Not necessarily . It depends on the contract stipulations . They may be marketed in the foreign country where the other party is located , or even in a third country . I think the principle of co-production is to expand export trade . It's a reciprocal business , isn't it ?

I think we should home school our children when we decide to have kids . What ? Why ? Well , our public schools here are not very good and private school are just too expensive .

I also think that having a one-on-one class is much better since you can focus more on his or her strengths or weaknesses .

In China at least , coffee is often associated with an exotic , well-to-do bourgeois lifestyle . Coffee is often considered a hobby of the well-educated , middle-class people . Maybe that's why some young chaps often spend a whole afternoon in a coffee bar , surfing the net or just typewriting something with laptop . While they are savoring a coffee at a leisured pace , they are actually showing off ! Yes . Behind a lifestyle , there is a culture . Young people easily become blind worshippers of a Westernized life . While they may not really like coffee , they think it desirable and enviable to be lavish with money in those high-consumption places . Then what about tea ? We need to bear in mind in the first place that tea , rather than coffee , has been the most popular drink for the Chinese people . Well . Tea represents another facet of popular culture . While a coffee bar is usually quiet and resonates with soft , elegant music , a teahouse is often a noisy , crowded , public space . People visit teahouses to associate with others , playing chess , chatting , or simply listening to operas .

What a pity that the traditional teahouses , as depicted by Lao She , keep fading away so quickly in this metropolis . It is not easy to find an old-fashioned teahouse that suits the ordinary people's spending power either . Teahouses of today all feature a cozy , comfortable environment , and high-quality services , but can easily cost you a good deal -- just like a coffee bar .

I'm reading an interesting report on Mars . Oh , what does it say ? Does it say water could still exist under the surface of Mars ? Absolutely ! It says there is water on Mars buried beneath the surface . It's just a matter of how deep it is . Then could the soil on Mars somehow be fertile enough to Groh simple plants ? The soil would need quite a bit of fertilizer to grow anything . And it would need to be protected from the UV radiation .

What are you reading ? It ' s an article about language . It talks about the idea of having a single global language . It seems that English already is the main global language . Does the article suggest that there should be an artificial language like Esperanto as the world language . Actually , it suggest English .

You wanna take some time off , is that right ? Well , sir , I was just hoping that I might be able to take some unpaid leave this year . What dates are you planning on taking off ? I ' ll need at least two months notice , so that I can plan for your absence . I was thinking of taking off from September first until the thirtieth . Would you be okay with that ?
Well , tell me something of yourself . What would you like to know , Mr . Green ? What working experience have you got ? In 2004 , I got a job in the sales department of a trading company near Guangzhou . I started a sales representative . A year later , I was promoted to the position of sales manager . I had that job ever since , which is just over a year now . Oh , good . Irene , can you tell me why you plan to quit being a sales manager to work here as my assistant ? Don't you like your present job ?
Did you working in a similar position before ? Yes . I have been with ABC Insurance Company for four years , and before that , I worked with the Pacific surveyor company as claim officer . Could you tell me the usual procedures to handle such a case ? Yes , on the shipper's side , when the cargos arrives , all relevant documents will be forwarded to the consignee . Among other things , this party has to check carefully the content of the packing list and weight list . When cargos are found to be damaged of short landed , this party has to call for a joint survey by representatives of the shipping company and the insurance agent . Based on the survey report , they will lodge a clam for compensation . If you act as our representative what would you do to safeguard our interest ?

I think , first of all , I would ask the consignee to produce survey report on loading , if they can't produce that I would suggest them to refer the case to their shipper . Meanwhile , bad weather could be agood excuse to refuse the responsibility .

Bill , I'm expecting a big increase in turnover with the coming of the Mid-Autumn Festival . But wholesales are unwilling to supply my orders unless I pay them an advance of 50 % of the full price , for my business is fairly new . I hope that you can make me an advance on loan . Do you have stocks or a title deed of a house to pledge as security ? No . I should be grateful if you could see your way to make an advance against my personal reputation . You may inspect my accounts . From my accounts you can see that I've promptly met all my obligations . We do not allow any request for a loan against personal security . This is a common regulation . But we may consider it if you can provide a reliable guarantor . Yes , I can . You know Mr . Macready , the famous car dealer here in New York . He agreed to act as my guarantor of a loan in the sum of US $ l0 , 000 until the end of this year .

It won't be much , but at least we ' ll have a monthly check when we get old .

Have you watched any of the talent shows on TV ? Yes , I've watched the finale for the ' Super Girl ' . The producer is very smart to copy the program from the US , which is quite fresh and eye-catching for mainland audiences . Yeah , and they know exactly what the audiences have in mind . Everyone desires equal opportunities and a channel to climb up the social ladder all the way to the highest in society . That ' s why the program has attracted so many star-wanna-bes . But it seems that these talent shows are getting less popular these days . There's no such program on this year .

Some guy pulls off a stock scheme and makes millions while spending the bare minimum sentence in jail .

You keep bowling spares but no strike . I don't know why , but I think there's something wrong with my hands . I couldn't seem to be able to control it on the first ball .

The problem is you are too nervous . You want to have a strike so much , so you deliver the ball too hard . And when it comes to the I second roll , there's no pressure . That's why you could bowl all those spares .

This is the route I thought we could take on our hike on Saturday afternoon . How long is it altogether ? It ' s about six or seven miles . That ' s about ten kilometers . That sounds OK .

We can eat a snack there .

We agree to give you a break on the price , all together a discount of 6 % . Good news is , I talked to my boss , he confirmed that if you take care of the shipping costs , we'll throw in insurance . Great ! I'd love to get a little better discount than 6 % , but if your company provides the insurance , that will save us a few bucks ... Now , all this is available to you , as far as you make payment within a 30 day grace period . That shouldn't be a problem , right ? No ... We shouldn't have any problem with that . I know we talked about a possibility for 90 days , but we won't be needing that after your discounted price . So , if all this is agreeable to you , I'll put it all down on paper and fax a contract to you this afternoon . If you can get a signed version of the contract we've agreed upon back to me by tomorrow morning , we can go ahead and make arrangements to ship the product on Tuesday .

How about offering three hundred and twenty thousand dollars ? I hope that the owners aren ' t insulted by that offer .

The order is so urgently required that we have to ask you to speed up shipment . If shipment is too late , we'll have to turn to other suppliers . I am sorry , but we can't advance shipment . The manufacturers are fully committed . They have no stock on hand . Can you find some way for an earlier delivery ? How's this then ? We propose partial shipment . We can ship whatever is ready to meet your urgent need instead of waiting for the whole lot to get ready . Sounds like a good idea .

You can ' t do the two things at the same time .

Mom , this is your third bowl of rice ! I know but I have no choice . My stomach just keeps crying for more and more . Why ? I never saw you eat so much before .

Welcome back movie lovers to another Premier Movie Review . My name is Richard Clarke and I am joined today by the very erudite DavidWatson . Thank you Dick . Today we are going to talk about the movie Lion King . Tell me Dave , what is your impression of this film ? Well , I think this film is simply a fable , depicting man ' s eternal greed for power , and in my opinion , it ' s a very fine film . Even despite the accusations of plagiarism traditional folk tales from other countries . The musical score was amazing , the animation was very well done , and the story was simply enchanting . I think otherwise . Even though the animation was technically strong , and as you say , the score and songs performed by Elton John were great , the film lacks a certain originality ; it lacked heart . And I would dare to say , it was too predictable . Predictable ! How ! Come on Dick , It ' s a G-rated movie ! It ' s for the kids ! It ' s not a thriller !

It did have some very dramatic and intense scenes For example when Mufasal dies , or the dark , grim portrayal of Scar . Even so , the film is linear . Mufasal dies , Simba runs away thinking it ' s his fault . Falls in love and returns to retake what is rightfully his . It ' s just too cliche .

What he said disappointed me . What did he say ? He advised me to change to a more suitable course . Why ? He said that career in law was unsuitable for a women .
Diana , in your opinion , which is more important , IQ or EQ ? Why are you asking me the strange question , Jerry ? I watched the movie Forrest Gump last night .

I'm really fed up with Larry ! He's the biggest airhead I've ever met . He always makes careless mistakes , and he's a pain to work with . You shouldn't be so negative . You ' ll always have some co-workers that are harder to work with than others . But if you are negative and start name-calling in the office , it will make a bad working environment for everybody . You only say that because you don't have to work with him . The people in your department seem so capable and nice to be around . Take Mary for example . She ' s smart and enthusiastic . I've never met anyone as cheery as she is . Everybody has their strengths and weaknesses . Even Larry . He might be a pain to be around , but he's also very good at staying in budget on projects . Mary , on the other hand , spends our project money like there's no tomorrow . Also , she's never willing to stay a little later at the office . She always leaves at 5pm sharp . Isn't there anyone in the office that is a perfect co-worker ? What about Bob ? Everybody loves Bob . Even though he's flesh out of college and still a bit green , he is a great co-worker .

in China at least , coffee is often associated with an exotic , well-to-do bourgeois lifestyle . Coffee is often considered a hobby of the well-educated , middle-class people . maybe that's why some young chaps often spend a whole afternoon in a coffee bar , surfing the net or just typewriting something with laptop . While they are savoring a coffee at a leisured pace , they yes . Behind a lifestyle , there is a culture . Young people easily become blind worshippers of a Westernized life . While they may not really life coffee , they think it desirable and enviable to be lavish then what about tea ? We need to bear in mind in the first place that tea , rather than coffee , has been the most popular drink for the Chinese people . well . Tea represents another facet of popular culture . While a coffee bar is usually quiet and resonates with soft , elegant music , a teahouse is often a noisy , crowded , public space . People visit tea

What did you learn at the workshop you went to yesterday ? Do you think it was worth the investment to go ? Yeah , I really got a lot of the session . The workshop topic was resolving personal problems . It was led by a professional human resources director . The teacher had a lot of experience , and I think we were all given a really good base to start with . The workshop was only one afternoon long , do you really think you can learn that much in only a couple of hours ? It depends on the topic , the teacher , and the way the course is set up . Yesterday , even though we only had a short time to discuss the issues , the workshop got us all thinking . We learned some very basic , but very useful methods of dealing with personnel issues . Sounds like you really learned a lot .

who is your favorite NBA star ? Kobe Bryant , of course . Kobe ? I know him , the key guy of the Lakers , a heck of a NBA player . He is on fire when he breaks through enemy defense . He is competent both in driving the lane and shooting jumpers , but what really makes him formidable is his ability to switch up and dribble with his left hand . Maybe he is not good ay rebounding ?

Did you watch the Premiership last night ? Yes , I watched United play Chelsea . What a fierce battle ! allay were engaged in intensive pressing and tackling in midfield . Well , it was not like a normal English League match . No , it wasn't . Rather , it looked like a Bundesliga match , where physical contact is so frequent . English League teams are apt to pass the midfield quickly with long passes . It seems to me English soccer players are very gentlemanly . As Diego Maradona spoke teasingly , they often knew only chasing hard after the ball , but forgot to steal it . Haha . That's probably why slide tackle and fouls are less common , and offsides more frequent in English League matches than those on the Continent . And the ball is often kept flying overhead , drawing beautiful curves in the sky . Such games are quite pleasing to the eye . Which team do you back then ?

I like their playing style . The Reds always have several excellent wing-backs , Like Riggs , Peckham and Gary Neville . They often make wonderful crosses when they assist in attacking .

I came upon a website which sends me an up-dated message by e-mail each day forecasting my experience in detail . It is amazing to find these forecasts largely in line with my daily life . What did it say about you then ?

Alright everyone settle down . Let ' s get started . As you know , an important aspect of becoming a good citizen is understanding the genesis of our legal system . It is not enough to simply memorize our laws , it is necessary that we comprehend why and how they were formed . This brings me to our topic for today . Does anyone know what we celebrate on May first ? Cinct de mayo ? No , that ' s May fifth in Spanish , James , no wonder you are failing my Spanish class . No , May first is International Workers ' Day . Do we get a day off from school then ? No ! It is not considered to be a national holiday here in the US , but in other countries it is .

It is not considered to be a national holiday here in the US , but in other countries it is . Www , man !

Previous legislative attempts to improve working conditions had failed , so labor organizers took drastic measures . They passed a resolution stating that eight hours would constitute a legal day ' s work . And , on May First 1886 , the resolution took effect .
Do we get a day off from school then ? No ! It is not considered to be a national holiday here in the US , but in other countries it is . Www , man ! In the nineteenth century , working conditions were appalling , with workers being forced to work ten , twelve , and fourteen hours a day . Support for the eight-hour work day movement was growing rapidly , despite the indifference and hostility of many union leaders , and by April 1886 , 250,000 workers were involved in the May Day movement . Previous legislative attempts to improve working conditions had failed , so labor organizers took drastic measures . They passed a resolution stating that eight hours would constitute a legal day ' s work . And , on May First 1886 , the resolution took effect . Cool ! Is that why we only work eight hours now ?

A mass meeting was called for the next day to protest the brutality .

Hi , Francis , how was your business trip ? It was a nightmare . What ' s up ? Actually , the business trip itself was very successful . We arrived on time , we had nice conversations and we settled some important issues for the next year . Sounds quite fruitful , why do you call it still a nightmare then ?
It was a nightmare . What ' s up ? Actually , the business trip itself was very successful . We arrived on time , we had nice conversations and we settled some important issues for the next year . Sounds quite fruitful , why do you call it still a nightmare then ? Well , the air line lost my luggage on the return flight and then I lost my carry on bag when I was tackling with the officers in charge . I left the airport three hours later than I expected and then I was caught in a traffic jam . When I finally got home , I was totally exhausted . But I found the elevator was out of service due to a blackout .

A Westerner said to his Chinese friend . " Chinese people slurp when drinking soup . It ' s disgusting . " The Chinese friend replied , " Westerners make a lot of noise licking their fingers when eating . It ' s even worse . " Everyone has his own habits , but these habits are not very good . The noise often spoils other people ' s appetite . I attended a course on table manners while I was in the United States . Some of the things we learnt included how to place the napkin and utensils and how to pass the bread . Before each course , the teacher would ask if we wanted to learn the Continental European way or the American way . We always said " American way . " It ' s amazing that everyone is so used to their own table manners . What is the Chinese way ? The westerners use knives and forks to eat so it is complicated . The Chinese use a pair of chopsticks and eat out of the same plate . I assume it is less complicated , right ? Not really . I did some research about Chinese table manners . The important rule is to remain silent while eating . Of course , this refers to family meals only . Not talking over meals is supposed to be good for the health . It is impolite if people do not talk to each other during a social party . The table arrangements and serving order for a social party are equally complicated . Each dish should be placed in the correct position . When fish is served , the tail should be pointing at the guest because tail meat is supposed to be tasty . If it is in winter , the stomach should face the right-hand side of the guest because that portion of the fish is very rich in winter . Each dish should be commenced by the eldest person who is seated at the head of the table . The diners should sit close to the table so food won ' t drop on their cloths . No noise should be made when chewing . No one should move food back to the communal plate even if he doesn ' t like it . One should drink soup slowly and is not supposed to make a lot of noise . All these table manners are very similar to Western habits .

All these table manners are very similar to Western habits . It seems that people share the same basic sense of etiquette regardless of their background . Apart from the different tools used for eating we seem to follow the same principles . We do not let inappropriate manners spoil other people ' s appetite . Westerners like to say , " bon appetite " before meals which is one way to suggest " mind your table manners . " Is there such an expression in Chinese ?

Well , we've finally put the finishing touches on the training programs for next year . Here's a report showing the projected costs as well as the expected return on investment . Return on investment ? How can you have a return on this kind of investment ? Can you really calculate the value of these training programs ? Sure ! It's not a real figure , of course . It's just an estimate based on rehiring costs , and the potential lost revenue that results from incompetence . Wow ! I'm impressed . So , what's in the cards for future training ? Will it be in-house or off-site ? A little of both . We'll have a few daylong sessions for things like business writing skills and software training . Those are available to everyone . We also have a variety of other programs

I'm afraid I've a complaint to make , which is about the goods we ordered last week . What is it ? I will explain the problem briefly . We found in the examination that 35 % of the goods have damaged . Really ? That's something unexpected . You see , all our exports are strictly inspected before shipment .

Welcome back racing fans ! My name is Rick Fields and , as always , I am joined by my partner in crime , Bob Copeland . We ' re in the last stretch of this very exciting race , and Kimmi Rikknen is leading the pack with only four laps to go ! They are heading to turn three and Lewis Hamilton tries to pass Rikknen ! It ' s a close one and , oh no ! Hamilton hits the wall ! He came in too fast , jammed on the breaks and spun out . We have a yellow flag and the pace car is making its way onto the track . The cleanup crew is towing the heavily damaged car and the green flag drops ! Rikknen is still in the lead with only two laps to go ! Smoke is coming out of his car ! He seems to be having engine trouble ! He makes his way into the pit , and Fernando Alonso takes the lead !

I think this spring is a good time for us to start looking . We should plan to move out of here before July . I'm tired of living in apartments . I know , dear . I am too . But we've just been too busy to look for a house . We need to find a good realtor . Not necessary . If we use a realtor to find a house , it will be more expensive .

I know , dear . I am too . But we've just been too busy to look for a house . We need to find a good realtor . Not necessary . If we use a realtor to find a house , it will be more expensive .

We need to find a good realtor . Not necessary . If we use a realtor to find a house , it will be more expensive . What do you mean ? Realtors always get a commission .

Probably also there are special real estate magazines with ads . Then we have to drive to the homes and look at them .

Fitzgerald at the last minute dived and saved her fish .

Ok , that's probably expensive , but not that bad . And then , ricocheted off her fish bowl . Mrs . Fitzgerald at the last minute dived and saved her fish . At least the fish were saved .

Bob ! Your eyes look bloodshot . Did you not sleep well ? I had a drop too much last night . I attended a banquet given by a Chinese colleague of mine . And it was startling for me to find that people are forced to drink against their will on a Chinese table . you have it right . Alcohol is a medium for communicating emotion in China . Drinking with business partners or would-be friends is a way of solidifying friendship , especially in Northern China . I just felt embarrassed if I refused to drink when people toasted to me . But if I keep gulping down one cup after another , I'm afraid I would feel unfit or sick . you lose face by refusing to drink , and the host might think you refuse to give him face . The right thing to do seems to be drinking yourself into incoherence until you throw up . This will endear you

How do I apply to an American university ? You should go to the library to find some information about American universities , and write to the Admission Office . Then the Admission Office will send you application forms and other related materials . From experience , many applicants write to several universities instead of just one . I was told that it took a lot of time and effort to apply . That is true . I'll list for you the requirements of almost all the universities . First of all , you need official transcripts of your undergraduate work , three letters of recommendation from your professors who know your competence , and the official TOEFL ( Test of English as a Foreign Language ) score ( It's usually 550 ) . Then you need a financial guarantee , and an application fee of 25 dollars . What's to come next ?

It's my first visit to Prague , I'll be here for three days for a conference , then I have a day on my own to do some sightseeing before I head back home . What do you suggest I see when I'm here ? There are many interesting places you should be sure to see . One problem is transportation , however . Because the city is very old , the roads are narrow and congested . If you only have three or four days to visit , you don't want to spend them waiting in traffic in a cab . I suggest you take the subway . The subway ? But is there a subway station next to my hotel ? I have to go between the conference center and the hotel several times a day ... No worries , there's a subway station at the conference center itself , and a shuttle from your hotel to the conference center that takes only 5 minutes . When you do your personal sightseeing , you can first take the shuttle to the conference center , then hop on the metro . Is it expensive to ride on the underground ?

Madam , I made a close study of the draft contract yesterday evening . I think there are something needs to modify . Which terms ? First , about the terms of payment . Your draft contract says that payment is to be made by D \ A . This is not our practice . We prefer to have the payment made by L \ C through a negotiating bank in America . Good . I will add this to the contract . The second thing I would like to point out , that is packaging . It's stipulated in the contract that all the computer parts should be packed in cardboard boxes . But I think the wooden cases are much safer .

Darling , I have news for you . Bobby and his wife , Evelyn , are going to have a baby soon . Really ? I thought his wife couldn ' t have a baby .

Hi , Lucy , you are very popular with people around you , what are your tricks ? Thank you for saying so . I don ' t know , probably because I like sharing my experience and knowledge with them . I think this kind of communication helps to improve our work efficiency and also helps to get along with colleagues . Sharing knowledge can be very settled and some second stances . People may think you are telling them how to do their work . If they take it personally , they feel angry at you and even become reluctant to support you at work . That is true . Some people will misunderstand your intention and lets you do it in the long threatening way . For example , it is not sensible at all to arguing with the others or correcting someone in front of other people . To show your friendliness and willingness to share is much more important than to show off . You are quite right . Thank you for sharing your experience with me . I learned a lot .

What's wrong ? I have a headache . These past few days I've been living off painkillers . Man , I feel like my head is going to explode . You should get acupuncture treatment . My mom was always having headache issues and it was acupuncture that cured her . The results are too slow . On top of that , just the thought of smoking needles poking into my flesh frightens me . They don't just randomly stick you , they find your pressure points . The heat allows the body to immediately respond to the treatment , restoring the body's " chi " .

The heat allows the body to immediately respond to the treatment , restoring the body's " chi " . But I get scared the moment I see a needle . How could I stand having needles in my body for hours on end ? The needles are very thin , and as long as the doctor's technique is good , and the patient himself is relaxed , it won't hurt-on the contrary it will actually alleviate pain . Now there are high-tech needles that are micro thin ; they don't hurt at all . However , if you are really scared of acupuncture , scraping or cupping are also options .

When they finish scrapping , your body is all red , as if you were just tortured . Cupping is the same , your body ends up with red circles all over . It looks like someone beat you up .

I understand we will need seven air conditioning units on the two floors . That ' s what you think , yes ? Yes . You could use five or six units . But five or six wouldn't be very efficient . I recommend seven . And if we take the Decker units you suggested , what would the price be ? Let me calculate the price for you . I can give you a 15 % discount if you buy the seven units . Let ' s see here . Your total would be 5929 dollars . Isn't there any way we can get central air conditioning in this building ?

You will have to find another doctor who will prescribe this for you .

Why have you decided to change jobs ? I hope to change because my current job is not within my chosen field . Since my major was international banking , I really hope to work at a bank .

You need to put a lot of hard hours on the job to succeed in this field .

What ' s the life expectancy in your country ? I ' m not sure , but probably about 75 years . How about in your country ? About 70 , I think .

Tina gave birth to a baby boy yesterday .

What do you think this flat ? It's not really all that good . The bedroom is a little small for us . Small ? But it should be enough for our needs , I think .

This is Action 5 News reporter Sarah O ' Connell reporting live from Washington , D . C . where a protest has broken out . Thousands of angry citizens are protesting against the proposed bailout of the auto manufacturing industry ! Sir , sir , Sarah O ' Connell , Action 5 news . Can you tell us what ' happening ? Yeah , yeah , we ' re here because we feel this is an injustice ! The financial irresponsibility of big business has to stop ! We ' re there to show the government that we don ' t like the way that they ' re spending our tax dollars ! Sir but what exactly is making everyone so angry ? It ' s an absolute outrage , Sarah , the US government wants to give 25 billion dollars of taxpayers ' money to the auto industry . These are companies that have been mismanaged and are now nearly bankrupt . I see . But , many supporters of the bailout argue that it could help save the jobs of millions of hardworking Americans .

That maybe true , and I for one don ' t want to see anyone lose their job , but how can these Ces ask for a bailout when they ' re making millions of dollars ? And then , they have the nerve to fly to Washington in private jets ! This costs hundreds of thousands of dollars ! And they ' re asking for money ! That is just not right !

How should we commemorate the centenary of the founding of the university ? We have been given quite a large budget to pay for some events . We should certainly hold a big party for the professors and students . We could have a firework display . Do you think that we should invite alumni and former professors ?

We could have presentations on the history of the university , the courses we offer , and our links with other universities .

Where should I put my overcoat and briefcase after entering the office ?

That ' s right . The ideal posture for women is to put their legs together and lean to one side . This is especially important in summer .

You've got long hair . Don ' t touch it while talking to the interviewer . It gives people the feeling that you cannot concentrate on your work .

Look , we ' Ve done extensive research , built studies , and read the literature , and there is conclusive evidence to support my theory ! Horowitz , I beg to differ .

Um ... how can I put this ? Let ' s just say that at this pace , we will be filing for Chapter eleven in less than three months . What ! Geez ! How could this have happened ? So what ' s the bad news ?

Which team do you think will emerge with the last laugh in this World Cup ? I wish it could be Germany . But it seems they are not in a very good conditions . No , they aren't . They had a hard time in the group stage and only sealed a sit in the eighth-finals with Wallack ' s header in the final three minutes . Just think , group A consists of Austria , China , and Saudi Arabia , all of which are minnows . It seems they've been out of luck since the beginning of the event . Their shots hit the woodwork as many as six times . Oh . my goodness ! I'm afraid the team is under a spell . Well , at least the Germans have demonstrated a very good ability to control the midfield . They recorded a total of 62 tackles in the match against Austria . And they to be endowed with perfect positional sense . I think that will give rise to scoring chances sooner or later .

Eeven though German attackers are not good at dribbling past opposing defenders , they breach the defensive line through quick movements to the right attacking positions and through accurate , well-timed passes .

What do you think about all the different diets people go on ? I don't think dieting is good for you . It's much better to eat a balanced diet and to never get overweight to begin with ! But what do you think about people who are obese ? What should they do to lose weight ? They need to eat healthy foods , but they also have to increase the amount of exercise they do every day . They don't have to cut out fattening foods altogether , though . So you think it's ok for people who are dieting to eat chocolate ?

A friend of mine has been taking an online career planning course these days . He told me the other day he has learned a lot from it . He recommended me to subscribe to it . What do you say ? I think it is good if we know enough about career planning . We will make wiser choices . What else did he tell you about it ? Well , just something in general , like several key steps in planning career and how to set specific and tenable goals . Sounds practical ! To be honest , sometimes I feel puzzled about my future career . I am not sure if this job suits me the best though I work very hard on it and enjoy being a hard worker .

I love my current job . If I take this course , I hope to learn some tricks to get myself more organized at work . If they can give suggestions about how to boost work relationships , that will be great . I need these to improve my current work performance .

Where's Bill ? The ambassador is already here . The meeting is set to start at 9 am . He's late again . Traffic is probably holding him up . You know , he commutes from the suburbs . It's not easy commuting every day . We should cut him some slack . Even though the traffic is bumper-to-bumper out there , I don't think it's heavy traffic that makes Bill late . He takes the train , remember ? Oh , that's right . Well , the train shouldn't be late . That means there is only one explanation ... Bill must have overslept . Well , to be fare , since he's coming all the way from Lancaster , he's got to get up much earlier than the rest of us . He must get start on his commute about six thirty , no telling what time he actually gets up .

That's right , because he's got to get to the train station from his house , then take the blue line into the city , then switch trains to the red line . In all , the trip's got to take more than 2 hours .

You didn ' t show up in the morning meeting . What ' s up ? Well , I just came in . I worked overtime yesterday . Some statistics and very important documents seemed to be inaccurate . So I stayed to double check them . The boss was aware of my very late work of last night . So before he left office , he told me I could come one hour later this morning . But you still look a little bit tired . What time did you leave ? It was around 1 thirty in the morning . I guess I didn ' t fall asleep till 3 because those numbers were involving in my mind . I just couldn ' t stop thinking about them . That ' s normal after a tense work evening . Working overtime is not always a pleasant experience for me either . Once , I worked overtime everyday for a whole week including the weekend . That really broke my rhythm and I got a little sick later .

There are advertisements everywhere here in hong kong . The city is so bright at night , with all the neon signs . I like it . It makes the city feel alive . I like all the different colors and I like the billboards with eye-catching pictures and slogans . I think that there are too many of them . I think that companies spend far too much money on advertising . They should have lower prices instead . Then they would see more . I see your point , but if companies didn ' t spend money on advertising , no one would hear about their products . I agree that some form of advertising can be annoying . I don ' t like it when people try to give you leaflets with information about products you have no intention of buying . I really hate receiving spam . I also dislike having to listen to advertisements and jingles when they are broadcast in stores or on the subway .

Sometimes I think television is too biased . None of them are completely objective . That's unavoidable , but think , How would you keep up to date without television ? Newspapers or the radio I guess . I just wish TV was more objective . Look , you can still learn a lot from watching television , you just need to be smart when you're watching . Filter the information and decide if you believe what you are hearing or not . The internet's a lot worse .

A lot of people get conned online .

That seems a little impolite in such a restaurant . That ' s what I thought . I just thought I ' d ask you and see what you thought of it . Anyway , what did you do yesterday evening ?

Give these sales figures a look . It's pretty depressing . We're way in the red this year . We can't afford to keep going like this for much longer . You're right , we need to start making money soon , or at least manage to break even . But I think that the market is slowly beginning to heat up--sales are bound to pick up any time now . Deman is dropping . The problem is our competition . They are monopolizing the market ! Maybe we should rethink our marketing strategy to include the possibility that our new line of cosmetics could be a big seller . It's really too early to tell , but a lot is riding on the new products . If we don't do better after the product launch , we may have to go bankrupt .

I want to ask you for a favor . I want to rent an apartment here in Beijing , but as a foreigner , I don't know the normal practice . Can you give me some advice ? First , why don't you tell me what you need , such as how big a room , where you want to live , whether you want to live downtown , and what you like to do . Then I can figure out which apartment is most suitable for you . I am a student and want to live in Haitian , so that I can live close to my school .

I can introduce you to a place for rent near your school . The apartment is on the 7th floor , so it is very quiet and suitable for studying . That sounds great !

Which social problem do you think the government needs to concentrate on most ? I think housing is a big problem . There are thousands of homeless people on the streets .

Well , he drove out , and when he got to the booth to pay the attendant , he pretended to have an epileptic fit , you know , to scare the thieves away . The attendant was no help at all , even though the guys were holding guns in plain view , he did nothing .

I think we should do the floors before we work on the curtains and walls . Why ? it doesn't make sense . If we do the floors first , and then paint the walls , we will get paint all over our new floor . Hmm Maybe you're right . But I can't stand all this green carpet here . And besides , I know how to paint . I will just cover everything with drop cloth . I won't get anything on the floor . Are you sure ? Yes , I'm sure I've done a lot of house painting in my life . And my mother was very picky . If I got even a tiny drop of paint on her furniture , she would get furious . So I learned to be very careful .

Do I need a visa ? No , I shouldn ' t think so . But you must take your passport of course . Yes , I know . I must get my traveler ' s check and some foreign currency .

I wish our competition will quit poaching our people , when Susan resigned last week to work for the Sunburst , she was our fourth employee to leave us for them . Have you ever considered that perhaps we have a morale problem among our employees ? If everyone is discontent with their work , of course they won't stick arround . Well , those do leave will soon find out the grass isn't as green on the other side of sense as they thought it was , I know Sunburst is suffering from inbreeding . Inbreeding is a big drawback from snitching most of their employers from one or two companies . With Susan leaving , we should probably look to someone new on board .

Dad , I ' d like to borrow some money . Sure , Johnny , how much do you need ? five bucks ? Come on , Dad , I need thirty thousand . I wanna get into the market . You know , I ' m tired of hearing all this news about the economic downturn , the inevitable recession , people stuffing their money in their mattresses . I look at this as an opportunity . This is a chance for me to get a jump start on building my nest egg . I don ' t know about that ; with all the uncertainty in the markets right now , it would be a very unwise decision to invest . I don ' t know if you ' re aware son , but there has been a lot of turmoil in the markets recently . There have already been half a million layoffs in the last few months , and we have no idea how the proposed stimulus package will impact the economy . There ' s just too much instability . I wouldn ' t feel comfortable investing in this climate . But look at it this way , every challenge is an opportunity . And anyway , I ' m not talking about investing in the domestic market . There are emerging markets that promise great returns . Look at China , for example , they have 1 . 4 billion people , half a billion of whom have recently entered the middle class . Here alone the aggregate demand for consumer goods represents an amazing wealth generating opportunity .

Well , that was an interesting documentary ! For sure ! I didn ' t really understand some of the technical jargon they used in the film when they talked about social security in the US . Like what ? Well , they mentioned how people put away money in something called a 401K ?

Through a you can authorize your employer to deduct a certain amount of money from your paycheck and invest it in the plan . Everyone tries to contribute as much as possible so that when you retire , you can rest peacefully on your nest egg .

There's a club in Silver Lake that's supposed to be hopping on Friday nights . Eddie from work told me that they have a really good DJ and a big dance floor , and the cover charge isn't bad .
Well , we do the same things every weekend . We go to the same restaurants . We see the same friends . You know what I mean ? Yeah , I guess you're right . It's easy to get bogged down in the day to day , and forget to change things up once in a while . Let's break out and do something completely different tonight .

Hi , John , how was your vacation ? Awesome , we went to Australia and New Zealand . That must have been wonderful . Do anything interesting ? Well , we went bungee jumping when we were in Australia . Wow ! Isn ' t that dangerous ?

Wow ! Isn ' t that dangerous ? A little , but the rush was worth it . Tell me about it . We jumped off a bridge and fell 500 feet before the bungee cord caught us . 500 feet ! I would never be able to do that .

What schools have you attended ? I finished Young Primary School in 1998 , and entered Xi ' an Middle School that same September . I graduated from there in July of 2004 , and that September I entered Wuhan University , where I'm studying now . How do you think the education you have received will contribute to your work in this company ? I think I have a good understanding of fundamentals in the areas your company deals with , and I can go on from here to build up the specific skills and knowledge I need to do my job well . Your graduation thesis was on Medical Application of Laser , right ? What were your conclusions ?

Look at this headline - Elvis Baby Born on Spacecraft . Where do these tabloids get such crazy stories ? I ' Ve often wondered the same thing . I also wonder who reads them . Then I realize that I ' m standing here reading them myself . It looks as though everyone in line reads them , or at least looks at the headlines . I think we picked the right line . This one seems to be moving more quickly than the others . Maybe our checker is faster at scanning the food .
I think I should join a fitness centre . I am getting a little fat and I'm totally out of shape . Even a quick walk of a few hundred metres leaves me out of breath . I'm afraid you are beginning to look a little overweight . You really need to stop smoking . That's the main reason you're unhealthy . I guess you're right . I've tried stopping , but I just can't seem to quit . Why don't you try smoking one cigarette less each day ? How many do you smoke each day now ? I smoke around 30 each day .

I've tried stopping , but I just can't seem to quit . Why don't you try smoking one cigarette less each day ? How many do you smoke each day now ? I smoke around 30 each day . Ok . So for one month , reduce the number you smoke by one a day . At the end of the month , you'll have quit . You should also buy a tracksuit and go jogging every morning . You don't need to jog far .

You're still a smoker shouldn't do too much exercises in your condition .

What is the most unexpected thing you experienced in space ? I wasn't quite prepared for the view of the Earth as we left . It was just awe-inspiring . It emerged from just a slightly curved horizon to a whole Earth , where you could look across oceans and continents in a single glance . I wasn't quite prepared for that . It's inevitably etched in my memory . When viewing the Earth from space , do you feel detached from humanity or more a part of the totality of humankind ? Detached . You're literally detached from one planet , captured by another . Your only link to reality is the Earth out there ; fortunate - 1y , it stays in view the whole time . There're a lot of suspicions that the International Space Station is never going to become reality . Is it going to be some future project that never happens ?

It without question has suffered a lot of delays . But there's hardware sitting on the pad right now and it's due to go off in December . It is a reality . It has just taken longer to get literally off the ground .

Do you think that this Shuttle mission will reignite the public's passion for space and get us to Mars sooner ?

You had gone to the moon twice , orbited space around the Earth lots of times , and of course you have had the most amazing views that a human being can have . How long do we ordinary beings have to wait to feel the weightlessness ? I just can't wait .
And so , that concludes my outline for our marketing strategy next year . Thank you very much for your time . Hey , that was quite the presentation !

I never thought about it that way .

I have never bought a house before and don ' t know how to make an offer . The process of actually making the offer is something that I will take care of for you .

I think that three hundred and twenty thousand dollars is a fair offer in this housing market . We could try that , but I really want this house !

Even with volume sales our costs for the Exec User won't go down much . Just what are you proposing ? We could take a cut on the price . But 25 % would reduce much our profit margin .

How much do they go for retail ? Retail price is 29 . 95 per unit . We take into consideration changes in supply cost when figuring this price . Is that including tax ?

I just don't think the salaries are comparable when you leave a major corporation .

Get up as early as six o'clock only to be jammed at every crossroad and still late for work . What a life ! I've had enough of it . Cool down , man . Everyone is fed up with the rush-hour traffic . But life isn't really all that . You should take the initiative and make some changes first . What should I do then ? I recommend you ride a bike instead of commuting by bus . It may offer you many benefits . First , it's good for your health . I'm afraid it's not necessary for me to further elaborate . While lots of people spend time like an hour each morning exercising , a bike ride to work not only builds you up , but also makes full use of time . You might as well sleep out for a longer hour . I know cycling is always a more favorable choice than a bus . After all , it's a sport . But do you think it a pleasant experience to take in the dirty , polled air on the road ?

Stephanie ! Did you just get to school ? But you were up and about when I left the dorm this morning ! That was about an hour and a half ago . This happens all the time ! Why do you always take so long It ' s a skill . What can I say ? I don ' t know why , I just have a long routine . Please explain because it makes no sense to me . How can a girl ' s routine be so complicated ? You get up , you shower , you get dressed , you brush your teeth , you ' re out the door . Half an hour , tops . Jacob , you have the luxury of having a haircut that rarely needs styling . I don ' t . I have to set aside about an hour and a half to get ready in the mornings . Every day , I wake up and head straight for the shower . Every second day , I wash my hair . If it ' s a hair-washing day , I frequently need to wash my hair twice because it gets really oily . Then I usually put in a conditioner and have to rinse that out too . Because my hair is so long , I seldom manage to take a shower in under twenty minutes . Afterwards , I often put on a pot of coffee and get dressed while I wait for it to brew . I take a long time to get dressed in the morning . Every now and then I remember to choose my outfit the night before , but usually I do it in the morning . In all , getting dressed takes about half an hour , at which time my hair is now semi-dry so then I have to style my hair . From time to time I ' ll put my hair up , butoften times I bloody it straight . And then , because of the texture of my hair , I regularly have to flat-iron it to keep it from frizzing . That ' s another twenty minutes or so . After that , I have my daily makeup routine . True , I hardly ever see you without your hair done and your makeup on , even when you show up to class in sweatpants . Tell me , how long does it take you to choose that outfit in the morning ?
My minibar is completely empty . Everything in that minibar has been consumed , sir ? Everything's gone . Is there anything special you'd like ? Just bring me three bottles each of Jim Beam and Perrier .

Well , what did you think about the last candidate ? Do you think we should hire her ? She had a very impressive resume , but she seemed to lack the confidence that I think a good manager needs . What made you think that she wasn't very confident ? Did you notice the way that she avoided making eye contact with us while she talked ? She was a bit nervous , I guess . What else ?

Did you notice the way that she avoided making eye contact with us while she talked ? She was a bit nervous , I guess . What else ? When she first walked into the room to greet us , she didn't shake our hands or introduce herself at all . I thought that was a bit unprofessional .

When she first walked into the room to greet us , she didn't shake our hands or introduce herself at all . I thought that was a bit unprofessional . you're right . If she walked into meetings with our clients like that , it would make our company look bad , wouldn't it ?

What book is that ? I just bought a new atlas . I ' m looking this map of the world . Look at Russia ! That ' s a vast country . Canada , China , and the USA are huge too . There are several tiny countries in the world too . Countries like Monaco are smaller than many cities . Those small countries are microscopic compared to Russia . European countries are relatively small . France looks quite big in Europe , but compared to many countries in other continents , it ' s not very large at all .

It ' s so relaxing , taking a walk in the country . The air is so fresh and clean . Would you like to live in the country ? I ' m not sure I ' d like it . I can see a lot of advantage and disadvantage . The problem is that , for me , each advantage has its own disadvantage . What do you mean ? Well , I hate the noise in the city , but I love being around lost of people . The problem is that you can ' t have lots of people and have peace and quiet . The tow just don ' t go together .
