W: Dr Clinton, when did you have the idea of helping cancer patients?
M: Actually, I didn’t have any idea when I left high school at the age of 16. Then I found a job in a small medical lab. I never dreamed I would help save people’s lives.
W: Then what caused your change?
M: I love lab work, so I went back to school. After ten years, I got my PhD. Then I worked at a medical company, where I began the research on a medicine to treat lung cancer patients. Now I have been here for 8 years. For me, a drug saves more than life. It can save a family.
W: I couldn’t agree more with you.

W: What are you going to do after the exam?

W: What’s the matter with this job?
M: It isn’t the worst job in the world, but it isn’t the best job, either.

M: I want to get ahead. I want to make more money.

Hello, everybody. I’m Teresa Stone. I’m so glad to meet you here. Today I’m going to share my travelling experience with you.
As a photographer, I have always loved to travel. The first place I visited was Africa. I loved the excitement of seeing animals run freely in the wild. It was so much fun. I still remember the adventure of camping when I was on Safari. Besides Africa, I have visited many other lands, such as Spain, Italy, Scotland, Japan and Thailand. People often ask me why I love to travel. How couldn’t anyone love travelling? There is such an attraction in seeing new things, meeting new people and tasting new foods. However, I will admit travelling is very expensive. There are so many costs of travelling. I have to pay for the hotel room and food. In addition, tourist attractions are usually expensive. Although I complain about the high cost of travelling, I wouldn’t choose to spend my money any other ways.
