Text 2
W: How do you find the dinner?
M: It’s quite delicious, but the pork is a bit well-done.
Text 3
M: Your T-shirt is very beautiful. How much is it?
W: Well, it used to sell at $100, but I was offered 30% off.
Text 4
W: I’m free today.
M: Great! You’ve worked for 8 days. Why not take a ride in the country?
W: Good idea. We haven’t gone out for ages. Will we take the children?
Text 5
M: I’m looking forward to the match.
W: So am I. If only it hadn’t rained so much last night.
M: Well, it is sunny now anyway.
W: But the field is so wet. I’m worried the game won’t be very exciting.
Text 6
W: I think David should learn to play basketball.
M: Why? Can’t you see that he has never been interested in it? He doesn’t like doing sports.
W: Just because of that, he should take part in sports and do more exercise. It is good for his health. Don’t you think so?
M: Sorry, I can’t agree with you. I think David should learn what he is interested in. Maybe he is interested in painting.
W: Why not learn both basketball and painting?
M: Good idea! However, we must ask David for his opinion before signing him up for these programs.
W: All right.

W: Bob! What’s wrong with you?
M: Sorry, mom. I was up late last night. My friend had a party. I only slept four hours.
W: So what are you going to do this morning?
M: I have to meet my study group at the library. We have a big test next week.
W: A big test? Why didn’t you study last night instead of going to the party?
M: Oh, it’s OK. I studied a lot before the party.
W: Maybe that’s not a good idea. I read a report. It says that if you don’t get enough sleep after you study, you may forget 30% of what you’ve studied.

M: Hi, Kate. Is it true that you’re moving to Beijing?
W: Yes, it is.
M: But why?
W: Oh, I think I’ll be able to find a better job there.
M: You’re probably right. But where are you going to live?
W: I hope I’ll find a flat to share with somebody. It will be cheaper that way.
M: Yes, that’s a good idea. Are you taking your cat with you?
W: No, I don’t think I will have the time to look after it. My parents have offered to take care of it.
M: But aren’t you afraid of feeling lonely?
W: Not really. I believe I will find many new friends there. What’s more, I’ll always come back to our village and see my parents.
M: Well, I just hope you’ll invite me to visit Beijing when you get settled.
W: Of course, I will.

M: Hello! You’re Lily, aren’t you?
W: Oh, Johnny? Oh, my goodness! I haven’t seen you for ages!
M: Nice to see you! What have you been doing?
W: Well, I tried many things after I left university. I’m now working for an international trade company. So I’ve traveled a lot all over the world.
M: That’s great! You must really enjoy that.
W: Yes, it’s lovely. It’s quite tiring though, but... What about you, Johnny? What do you do?
M: I teach chemistry at a university.
W: Oh, that is interesting.
M: Yes. I’m very happy doing what I do.
W: Good.
M: Anyway, it’s great to see you. We didn’t see you last summer at the class reunion.
W: Well, I was told about it, but I was in Japan at that time.
M: I have a class in fifteen minutes. Let’s meet tomorrow for a chat.
W: All right.

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is your captain speaking. First, I’d like to welcome everyone on Rightwing Flight 86A. Thank you for choosing Rightwing Flight. The time is 1:30 pm and we are now leaving for London. Our flight time today is four hours and fifteen minutes. We are now flying at an average height of 33,000 feet and our speed is about 400 miles per hour. The present weather looks good. With the wind on our side we are expecting to land in London about fifteen minutes ahead of time. The weather in London is now clear and sunny, with a high of 25 degrees for this afternoon. If the weather stays fine, we should get a great view of the city as we land, but the report says there is a chance of rain in the late afternoon. The air hostesses will be coming around in about twenty minutes to offer you some food and drinks, and the in-flight movies will begin shortly after that. I’ll talk to you again before we arrive in London. Until then, sit back, relax and enjoy the rest of the flight. Thank you!
