Text 1

M: Why did you choose that book? I always thought you are a mystery or historical fiction reader.

W: I haven’t read those types of books since I was 18. Now I like to read romance novels.

Text 2

M: Hi, you seem confused. Is there anything I can do to help you?

W: Thank you, but I’m not lost. I’m just angry that I have to wait so long for my brother to come out.

Text 3

M: I think you should be a teacher. Otherwise, it will be a waste of your degree.

W: But I enjoy being a librarian. I love books, especially history. And when I’m free, I can work on

my hobby — designing websites!

Text 4

M: You’ve been on your laptop all day, Mary. Take a break and come outside for a bit.

W: Maybe later. I have a paper due tomorrow and I do not have enough sources to prove my

arguments.

Text 5

M: I folded the laundry and took out the rubbish. Is that all I need to do today, Mom? My game is

waiting.

W: Almost. Just help me set the table and then you’re free.

Text 6

M: And here is the production line. These will provide the power for the next generation of electric

cars.

W: Someone in the office said these were much smaller than the previous ones.

M: Yes, batteries are getting smaller all the time. They used to be the size of a cupboard. Our aim is

to reduce them to the size of a shoe box.

W: And when the finished product is put in a car, where does the car go?

M: Straight to the showroom usually. There is a big demand for this type of vehicle.

W: Well, thanks for the tour. It has been really interesting.

M: It was a pleasure.

Text 7

W: That was a hard day. I’m getting too old to be a teacher. We both are.

M: You’re kidding. I’m 46 and you’re only 36. You’re almost a child!

W: Ha-ha. If only. I’ve had such a tiring day. I don’t feel like I have the energy any more.

M: You ought to read the story I’ve just read, about a man who is still teaching at the age of 92.

W: What? No way. People are getting their pensions long before that.

M: This man does it for free. He’s called Ye Lianping and he works in the village of Buchen, in Anhui

province.

W: Why does he have to work at that age? - 12 - M: He doesn’t have to. He volunteers to teach children who have been left behind by their parents.

W: Ah, are their parents migrant workers?

M: Yes, the parents work in cities.

Text 8

W: This is a great party. I can’t believe it’s been 10 years since we finished high school! It feels like

just yesterday that we were still in class with everyone.

M: 10 years? I had thought it to be 8, or 9 years at the most. Oh, time flies. I can’t wait to tell the

guys about our travels. Remember when we got to see the Mona Lisa and the Eiffel Tower in

France?

W: Oh, I will remember that trip forever. That was where we started our travel website. Before that,

we had only been to Mexico City and, er…Vancouver, Canada!

M: How many countries has it been now…twenty?

W: Oh, at least! It’s just been you, me, our computers, and the world around us for the last eight

years. What was your favorite trip?

M: Honestly, I think the little tour we took of New Zealand was my favorite. I must say that the

pictures we took there were the best we’ve ever taken.

W: Oh, I’m not sure about that. I’m probably most proud of our pictures of India. That trip was

exactly like I had been dreaming of! Hey, that’s Brad Lewis. Let’s go say hi…

Text 9

M: I’m so sorry I’m late! The traffic is always terrible downtown, especially at this time of day.

W: For sure. Even the bridge was closed yesterday. A bus got two flat tires in the middle of it, and it

took me nearly an hour to get around it.

M: Lucky for me, I never have to go over that bridge.

W: I’ve always wanted to see the circus, you know.

M: Yeah, I wish I could have taken you to something like this when you were younger. But I just

couldn’t afford it back then, with your mom being sick.

W: Well, you did the best you could for the family. And anyway, I think I turned out okay.

M: Yeah, Linda, I’m so proud of you! I still can’t believe a couple of poor farmers raised one of the

brightest doctors at Stanford Hospital!

W: Well, you taught me the value of hard work. I’ll always be grateful for that. Hey, let’s go get

some snacks before we go inside.

M: All right. We should go to our seats right after that, though. I don’t want to miss the first

performance. It’s a local magician, and he’s supposed to be amazing.
