4happiness
Jim , how was your weekend ?

I went to the beach with my friends and had a barbecue there .
4happiness
That sounds like a lot of fun . Did you go swimming , too ?
4happiness
Sure . I think it ’ s a fantastic place to go .
4happiness
I couldn ’ t agree more . That ’ s an ideal place for a vacation .
4happiness
It sure is .
0neutral
You'd better prepare for the examination .
0neutral
I don't think the exam will be very hard .
0neutral
You should change your attitude , or you will not pass the course .
0neutral
It is high time you have a talk with him . That may help clear the mists .
0neutral
I did , but he gives me a runaround .
0neutral
If I were you , I would put the whole matter on the table .
0neutral
What is the correct time , please ?
0neutral
It's exactly twelve minutes past seven .
0neutral
When will the lecture begin ?
0neutral
Should I ask Sara to the party ?
0neutral
If he promised to help you , I'm sure he will help . He's a man of his word .
0neutral
You said it . I always count on him when I need his help .
0neutral
We're having a sixties party next week . Do you want to come ?
0neutral
What is a sixties party ?
4happiness
You come dressed in anything from the sixties .
4happiness
That sounds like fun . But where can I get clothes that old ?
4happiness
Check out your mom's closet . I'll bet she still has something .
4happiness
Good idea . Can I bring some music from that period too ?
4happiness
That will be great ! Do you have LPs or Cds ?
0neutral
I want to improve my handwriting , and I've practiced it for several weeks , but nothing happened . You see , my handwriting is still bad .
0neutral
Oh , come on . You know it's a long process , you have to be patient .
0neutral
I know it , but I don't know when I can make it better .
4happiness
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 .
4happiness
Yeah , you are right . I must stop complaining and stick to it every day .
4happiness
I ’ m so excited , mother . Oh , a new baby !
4happiness
My first grandchild .
4happiness
And my first nephew . He looks a lot like you , mum . He does .
4happiness
Do you think so ? Well , I guess . He does look a lot like me . Oh , he ’ s got Richard ’ s eyes though .
0neutral
Yes , he does have Richard ’ s eyes . The baby even looks like you than Richard does .
0neutral
Well , children usually resemble their parents .
0neutral
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 .
4happiness

0neutral
Do you speak only English in the class , or does your teacher explain everything to you in Spanish ?
0neutral
Oh , we never speak Spanish in class ! Miss.Parker speaks to us only in English .
0neutral
I suppose she's right . Does she speak English very slowly ?
0neutral
Not always . Sometimes we don't understand her . Then she has to repeat what she said .
0neutral
It must be interesting to study English .
0neutral
Mario and I are the best students in the class . Miss Parker says that my pronunciation is very good .
0neutral
Is English pronunciation easy or difficult ?
0neutral
Doris , I'm glad you're home . I'm terrified . I don't know what to do !
3fear
What is it ? What happened ?
6surprise
I think someone is stalking me .
0neutral
No , it can't be . Really ? Who ?
0neutral
I don't know . I saw him the first time Tuesday . He was at the cafe . I noticed he was looking at me a lot . Not just the usual looking , but staring.He just kept staring at me . He didn't stop .
0neutral
What did you do ?
0neutral
I didn't do anything . Finally , he left.But then I saw him again today . Outside the shoe store . Near the cafe . I went into a CD store and pretended I was looking at CD's . But then he came in too .
0neutral
Did he leave when you left ?
0neutral
Yes . Then I noticed he was on the sidewalk behind me . He was following me .
0neutral
What did you do ?
0neutral
He followed me all the way home !
3fear
That's about five blocks . And around corners too.So he was definitely following you .
0neutral
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 ?
3fear
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 .
0neutral
Why can't I call the police now ? He was definitely following me !
0neutral
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 .
0neutral
I suppose . What can they do ? I don't even know who he is .
0neutral
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 .
0neutral
Han Maimed , What's your plan for the weekend ?
0neutral
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 ?
6surprise
I get together with my Christian brothers on Saturdays .
0neutral
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 .
0neutral
Come on , Han Maimed , don ’ t make a fuss . A lot of Americans , including many scientists , believe in religion .
0neutral
But I ’ m really surprised . I thought science and religion are not compatible , are they ?
0neutral
Yes , they are compatible . Actually , the U . S . is both the most developed and the most religious country in the world .
0neutral
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 ?
6surprise
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 .
0neutral
Really ?
0neutral
Absolutely ! It was founded by a group of Puritan immigrants from England .
0neutral
Why was it founded by the Puritans ? Where were the atheistic educators ?
6surprise
Because most of the first English immigrants who came to the United States were Puritans .
0neutral
How come ? I mean why most of them were religious people ?
0neutral
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 .
0neutral
So , you mean people didn't enjoy religious freedom in England ?
0neutral
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 .
0neutral
Why did they want to found a college ?
0neutral
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 .
0neutral
Oh , I see .
0neutral
Actually Harvard was first named ' New College ' , without a formal name .
0neutral
When did it begin to be called Harvard University ?
0neutral
In 1639 , it was renamed after its major benefactor John Harvard . Interestingly , JohnHarvard himself was a clergyman .
0neutral
It seems that Harvard was predestined to be influenced by religion .
0neutral
Therefore , it ’ s not exaggerate to claim that had there not been religion , there would note Harvard .
