M: Did you finish shopping for school, Alice?
W: Yes. I bought all my textbooks yesterday. Five, all together. M: Wow. You must have spent a lot of money on them. W: Yeah. They were expensive! Each one cost more than $80. M: That?s really a lot. Text 4
M: Lucy, turn down the TV a little bit. Your sister is busy with her homework. Don?t disturb her.
W: Still working on it? I thought she?d finished all her work at school. M: I don?t think so. She went straight into her room after she came back. So I guess she has much more to do.
W: Don?t worry, Dad. I?ll go upstairs to see what I can do to help. M: Good girl. Text 5
M: Hi, Jane. Are you free this afternoon? W: Sure. Why?
M: I wonder if you?d like to play tennis with me.
W: Sounds good. But I lost my membership card today. I must get a new one tomorrow morning. What about tomorrow afternoon?
M: OK. Let?s make it 3:30. W: Great. Text 6
M: Where?s my red tie, dear? The one I wore at Ann?s wedding. W: I don?t know. All your ties are in the closet. Look for it there. M: I found it! It?s in the bag.
W: You look nice today. Why are you wearing the red tie? Another wedding?
M: No. An important guest is coming to our company. We?ll have a business meeting and sign an agreement. It?s a big day for me. W: It?s indeed important. But the tie doesn?t go with the grey suit. I like the blue one. Try it on.
M: Mm, it looks much better. I?ll tell everyone that my wife chose it for me. Text 7
W: Jack, I find you are a good joke teller. Whenever you tell a joke, people laugh loudly.
M: Yeah, that?s because I love jokes and I like sharing them with others. W: I like sharing jokes, too. But when I tell jokes to my friends, they don?t laugh at all. They try to force a smile, but I can see that they
don?t think it?s really funny. It?s so embarrassing!
M: I also find sometimes you try to amuse people, but no one laughs. W: It?s a complete joke when I tell jokes.
M: Maybe you need to change the way you tell jokes. Let me give you some tips. W: Great!
M: First, choose the right joke for the right person. You can?t expect to amuse people of all ages with one joke.
W: Well, yes, you?re right. I heard a joke from my friend, and I told it to my mom. My mom didn?t understand it at all.
M: Yes. Next, don?t laugh before you finish the story. I saw you laugh so hard while others didn?t know why you were laughing. W: That?s my problem. I can?t help laughing. M: You may use some body language to help you. W: I?ll try. I hope your tips work for me. Thank you. M: You?re welcome. Text 8
(Telephone rings…)
M: Hello, Jack Watson speaking. W: Hi, Jack, this is Mandy.
M: Hi, Mandy. Is everything going well?
W: Yes. Thanks. Do you remember Mr. Martin Reagan? M: Yes, of course. The explorer. Why?
W: Actually, I?m calling to invite you to a lecture given by him at our school tomorrow. The lecture is about his adventure to the South Pole. Would you like to come? Maybe we can get a signature from him. You may bring his book.
M: Really? That sounds so exciting! He?s my hero! I can?t believe I?ll see him! What time shall I come?
W: It starts at 4:00. I?ll pick you up at the school gate around 3:30. Don?t be late. We are getting to the lecture hall at 3:40 so that we can get a good seat. By the way, how will you come to our school? M: I can take a bus, or the subway.
W: There?s no subway station nearby. You have to walk a lot. Why don?t you borrow a bicycle? It?s more convenient.
M: OK. I?ll go and get a bicycle. Thank you for telling me the good news. See you tomorrow. W: You?re welcome. See you. Text 9
Well, now, ladies and gentlemen, that was our last item, and all that remains for me to do is to thank our performers sincerely on behalf of us all for the pleasure they have given us this evening. And of course I must
express thanks to those who?ve worked behind the scenes, and especially our producer. But most of all I want to say thank you to all of you for coming here this evening and supporting this event, especially in such bad weather. I think perhaps I should take this opportunity to renew my sincere apologies to those sitting in the back rows. We?ve made some repairs to the roof, but unfortunately the rain tonight was unexpectedly heavy, and we?re grateful to you for your understanding and cheerful good humor. I may say that we had hoped that the repairs would be enough. But we were recently informed that the whole roof will have to be replaced, which is of course a severe blow when you think it?s only five years since we replaced the roof of the church itself. And so we shall be having another concert soon, I hope. Thank you. Text 10
W: Good morning, sir. What can I do for you?
M: Good morning. My wife and I are going to travel in France and
Germany. I wonder if you could plan the trip for us.
W: Of course, sir. When would you like to go? M: July 2nd to 8th. We have a one-week holiday.
W: Would you like to travel alone or take a package tour?
M: We want to travel alone. And could you help us book air tickets and
arrange accommodations? W: Yes, we can. May I have your names? M: Jacob Fuller and Mary Fuller.
W: Could you spell your first name, please? M: Jacob. J-A-C-O-B, Jacob.
W: You want to leave on July 2nd, right? Here?s a flight. AF023 leaves at
4:30 in the afternoon and
arrives in Paris at 6:00 in the morning. Is that OK?
M: Well, in that case, we?d better go one day earlier. I don?t want to waste
a day.
W: No problem. Let?s make it July 1st, Flight AF023. And what kind of
hotel would you like?
M: Not expensive. Between 100 and 120 dollars.
W: OK. I?ll see what I can do. Could you leave your telephone number?
I?ll tell you after I?ve made all the arrangements. M: Sure. It?s …
