neutral How ’ s your father? neutral He ’ s fine. He retired last week. It ’ s turning point in his life. Now he can relax and enjoy his retirement. neutral He can spend more time with his grandchildren. neutral Oh, I don ’ t think he wants to. He wants to travel to several different countries around the world. happiness So, he wants to have a more active retirement. Good idea! neutral

Have you ever traveled?

What do all these people want? anger... Every one wants my friend! Why is

neutral A good suggestion for you.You need a holiday. neutral It wasn't always like this, you know. neutral What do you mean? neutral Well, I mean.We always do the same thing.There's no variety in our lives. neutral You need a holiday.That's what's the matter. neutral

How can we get one?

How about going skiing next month? happiness Good idea. Let me see if

neutral I don't blame you. Perhaps you could sublet it. neutral Yes, but whom to? happiness Mmm... let me think. Oh, I know just a person. An old colleague of mine, Jim Thomas, is coming here to do some research this summer, from June to August. happiness That's exactly when I'll be away. It sounds ideal, as long as the landlord agrees. happiness Tell you what, I'll be calling Jim late this week anyway, so I'll mention it to him then. happiness

Ok, thank for your cooperation.

And maybe, we can sort something together. He did offer his flat to someone else recently, who

neutral Why do you say so? Can I see your new car? happiness Of course you can. ( Lead Carl to his garage. ) happiness Wow, this new car is dynamite! It is a shiny, beautiful car. happiness My car is simply a daisy. It drives smoothly. happiness The car has very sleek lines. I love it. happiness

Yes, we both drive wonderful cars!

Your muscles make the car even more handsome. You must have gotten good discount for

neutral Things are tough all over. You should never give up! neutral But how can I prevent a deficit? happiness I think you should make a thorough market investigation now. happiness OK, OK. I ’ ll do my best. happiness I always consider you are such a guy who never gives up. happiness

Thank you very much, Jane!

Thanks. Thing 50 yuan for one case

happiness And how ’ s your brother? happiness He is fine. happiness He ’ s going to be sent to Britain to study, really? happiness Yes. He ’ s already got the passport and visa. happiness Fantastic! Please send him my congratulations. happiness

Thanks. I am very happy for him too.

How nice! I hope you are all right yourself. What have been happening in China recently?

neutral Mike, I can't catch up with our Chinese teacher very well. neutral I advise you to take an additional course in some Chinese schools. neutral What is that? neutral This kind of school is good at helping people to improve their Chinese. neutral Will they recommend me the class that suits me? neutral

Of course, yes.

Certainly. Our Chinese teacher will guide them on your request. happiness Very nice

neutral Why? neutral The winter is very rainy, I don't like the rainy day. neutral What about the weather in Boston? neutral I lived there for three years. I like summer but I don't like winter. neutral Is it very cold in winter? neutral

Well, sometimes we can have some ice.

Yes, it gets quite icy. But if you want to go skating, that would be

neutral You were spying on me, weren ’ t you? You probably rented those children. neutral Why would I spy on you? neutral Because I am your competition which you know perfectly well, or you would not put up that sign just around the corner. neutral The entrance to our store is around the corner. And there ’ s no other way of saying that. It ’ s not the name of our store. It ’ s where it is. And you do not own the phrase around the corner. neutral What is that? What are you doing? You ’ re taking all the caviar! That caviar is a garnish? neutral

Yes, yes. We take some special care when serving this kind of food in an American restaurant...

Oh! Is this my brother? He looks like his mother, doesn ’ d he

neutral Out? What do you mean out? neutral You know on a date, they are going to dinner. neutral Dad and mom? neutral Yeah, they said they ’ re reviving the old tradition. neutral You mean this is going to be a regular thing? neutral

It sure seems so.

Yup. Once in while it doesn't have too make them feel bad.

neutral Where are you going to study? neutral I am going to register at Harvard next month. neutral What are you going to major in? neutral I am going to major in tourism. What about you? How long have you been here? neutral For nearly four years. neutral

Do your family still live back home?

Do you like the campus of this university? happiness Of course! It's

neutral That's right. And I'm going to be Vice President of Marketing. neutral Way to go, Mary. A lot has happened during the last few months, hasn't it? neutral You can say that again! neutral What's up with Vince and Elvin? neutral They work for Zina now. neutral

So, what do they have you doing?

Are you kidding me? happinessness It sounds like a joke but

neutral That's because it's time. neutral Time for what? neutral It's time to make our wedding wish come true... surprise You mean get married now? On the plane? neutral Why not? I've got the rings ready. surprise

But how could you have bought this?

What about all your luggage? anger ... And we haven't discussed

neutral Do you have your library card? neutral Oh, yeah. Here you go. neutral Will that be all for today? neutral That ’ ll be all. neutral These books are due back in two weeks. happiness

I see. Thanks, Lily. Have a good day!

Thank goodness. I need them to read the newspaper, so they can get up-to date

neutral Suit wrote me a letter. neutral What did she say? neutral She got a master degree, and now she is going for her doctor. surprise Really? I can't believe it. neutral It's not a surprise, is it? She has always been a hard working student. neutral

How do you know that.

But how many credits does she need to get his doctors? surprise Oh

happiness You will be very beautiful on your wedding day. happiness Thank you! happiness Which hotel will the reception be held at? happiness The Palace Hotel. happiness It's excellent. A friend of mine had her wedding reception there and said it was perfect, though very expensive. happiness

I hope our family can afford that!

What about the other one? 0 I don ’ t want any others! We have

neutral Please come in! neutral Hi. Steven. I just drop in and want to have a chat with you. happiness Oh, so nice of you to come here. Have a seat. Please make yourself at home. happiness OK. ( Sit on the sofa ) Wow! Your house was decorated so beautiful. happiness Thank you. My wife would be very happy to hear this. happiness

She'd love your compliment.

So, why are really here? happiness Of course for our company re-organ

neutral You must have been really hurting for cash to have done that. neutral I had just enough money to make ends meet until payday. Then last Wednesday I received a phone bill to the tune of $ 195.00. I hit the ceiling when I saw that. neutral It sounds like you weren't expecting that. neutral I'd forgotten that my brother had used my phone earlier this month to call his girlfriend. He forgot to mention that she happened to be in New York at the time 3000 miles away. happiness Well, if you need some money to tide you over until payday, I can loan you some. happiness

Thanks, Justin--That was real nice.

That is very nice. But why do you want it? What did your mom ask him about me

happiness Cheers! To our first night in our new apartment. neutral It's so quiet. I'm not really used to it. neutral All you hear is the crickets and the breeze. neutral It's a little eerie. I'm sure the silence will begin to grow on me. happiness Well, I think it's fabulous. And the neighbors don't even seem to exist. happiness

They must be very considerate of us.

You know, maybe that just means they are good. neutral Yeah, perhaps we

neutral Ms. : Let me give you a hall pass for it. neutral What's a hall pass? neutral Ms. : With a hall pass, you can go to the ladies'room or wherever you need to go during class time. neutral I see. neutral Ms. : If a teacher stops you in the hallway, just show him or her the pass. neutral

Can we keep using them next semester?

So, what if somebody stops us at our own classes'room door? neutral

neutral So, what did you get them? neutral I bought a sewing machine. I know that my friend likes making her own clothes, but her current sewing machine is quite old and has some problems. neutral What ’ s wrong with it? neutral She says that after several years of use, it ’ s not working properly. When she uses it, it makes a funny noise. neutral Household appliance don ’ t seem to last for a long time nowadays. neutral

Yeah, they hardly ever do.

My brother got an iron-ons system form us. We were all really glad at his home because

surprise Really? What's the series about? neutral well, it's about how an immigrant girl achieve her dream in America. It's a sitcom but really quite smart and really funny. I think you'd like it. neutral it sounds interesting, but I am not a big fan of TV shows. They're time consuming and don't have much depth. neutral I believe some shows are quite informative and interesting. Take this show for example, it examines American xenophobia and how it might conflict with the American dream, with hilarious results. surprise really? that's interesting! neutral

also there is great deal on what happens when Chinese families live together, very slyly.

yeah! The main story is set at Lincoln High, another name'Lily Lin college ; it

happiness Should we go see it? neutral I'd rather not. I don't like horror movies. happiness How about ‘ Run of the Mill? ’ neutral No. I heard that's really boring. happiness Why don't we go to a concert instead? happiness

Good idea, what should I wear?

Hey, why haven 1't you ever given me an honest answer? What do think of

neutral I was born here. surprise Really? This is a beautiful town. happiness It's nice talking to you. But I have to go. happiness OK. Can I have your phone number? happiness OK. It's 15066688866. Call me! Bye-bye, then. happiness

Good-Bye, Lily. See you around!

Good byes. Keep in touch. happiness Exciting! Do say hi

happiness I love it when the weather is like this.Why don't we sit down outside and have our lunch? happiness That sounds like a good idea.The sky is clear, the sun is shining and there's a nice cool breeze, so it is not too hot. happiness I really miss the change of seasons like we have in Colorado ; but I must admit, this sure is a nice spring day. happiness Hey, this spot in the shade looks really comfortable. neutral Okay.Hey, is that a dark cloud over there? Do you think it will rain after all? neutral

No, maybe it could pass through.

Well, if one were betting, I ’ d say it won't spoil your app

neutral I'm impressed. neutral are you scared of anything? neutral well, sometimes I get scared when I'm in my apartment all by myself. neutral what do you think is going to happen? neutral I always worry that the door is unlocked or that a window is open and that a stranger will come in and steal my things. neutral

how did this start?

it doesn ’ t make sense, though. How could anyone walk into your house through an unfured

neutral Most of the time we were lucky, but once a tree from our front yard was ripped out by its roots and ended up in our living room. neutral Wow, that must have really been scary. neutral Actually, some of my fon best memories of my childhood were of spending time with my family in the basement waiting for the tornados to pass. neutral Have you ever experiences a flood? neutral No, but my father's car was destroyed in a flood once. It actually happened the day after he bought the car! neutral

I guess all things are not so sweet. What would your mom say when she heard about it?

That sounds like it could never happen. surprise You would be right-- until next

neutral I've only seen one in my life. I was looking out the window. It was around two miles away. It was very interesting to watch.But it was heading toward my friend's house. So I quickly called them on the phone. neutral Did it hit their house? neutral No, it didn't. But they are glad I called them. neutral What were they doing when you called? neutral They were all sitting in the living room watching TV.They had no idea a tornado was coming toward their house.If it had hit them, they could have all been killed. neutral

Do many stormes affect your area?

Wow! That is something, huh? happiness Yeah... scary.

neutral I was late for work because of them. neutral Again, I do apologize for the inconvenience. neutral I want my money back for the delivery. neutral Seeing as they were late, that won't be a problem. neutral It shouldn't be a problem. neutral

What can go wrong, will go wrong.

You are right--it isn ’ t. sadness My mistake and all---

neutral Actually I live in London, but my family lives in Seattle. neutral Oh, I am from London as well. neutral Where in London do you live? neutral In Wimbledon - quite close to the tennis courts actually. Which is very nice because I love tennis. happiness I play tennis there every week. Shall we have a game one day? happiness

That sounds like great fun.

Certainly if you like! Do put all of those things into your suitcase. We don

neutral Every year, the South has the floods. It is an act of God. neutral Do you really think so? neutral Yeah, you have some other ideas? neutral Think, in some way it is an act of God, but in another way, it just is caused by us. neutral For example? neutral

Because our environment is not health, and we are doing too much industry to pollute the air.

You know, when we clear a trees and trees to plant farmland. dis

neutral Watch out! You're too close to the fire place. neutral Don't worry, but my clothes are made of leathers. surprise Really? That's wonderful! happiness Thank you for your warning. neutral Not at all. neutral

Be careful next time.

Do be careful. sadness I am sorry it happened, sir! But do

neutral Ok, let's see, well, you've got a long life line, which is good, and the love line is strong... neutral What else do you see? Will I be successful? Will I make a lot of money? neutral Hmm, hard to say, wait, yes, it looks like you will do well in business, and your ambition will help you a lot, but... neutral What? What is it? What's the matter? neutral You seem to have a large gullibility line. You believe everything that you're told. neutral

Do you really think so?

Oh, yeah?

neutral And when is your son's birthday? neutral That is not for a while. His birthday is only in August. neutral But Mark's birthday is in April so I need to think about his present soon. neutral And when is your birthday? neutral Oh, my birthday is in December just before Xmas so of course nobody remembers. neutral

So what did you get this year?

So do we know the date, right? happiness Yeah. My

neutral Yeah, you ’ re quite right and what ’ s your hobby? neutral I like taking photos out of door. happiness Oh, photography, It ’ s really a good hobby. happiness Yes, I usually develop and print all my own photos. neutral You yourself have a photo studio? neutral

Not really, it's just at home.

Well yes. surprise That sounds amazing to me. Are there very expensive?

neutral May I know the reason, madam? neutral You see, I bought it for my husband, but he doesn't like it. neutral When did you buy it? neutral Last Saturday. neutral Can I see the receipt? neutral

Of course. Here is one of them.

Of course, yes. happiness Maybe we can exchange this one with a new design and

neutral I think it's just a crush. You can't be serious. neutral well, this might be silly. But I just can't get him off my mind. And I can't help missing him. neutral did you tell him? neutral yes. He said I'm his dream girl. neutral you shouldn't take it too seriously. It might be a lie. neutral

no. That would make me disappointed.

maybe, or maybe he likes me. surprise really? How dose that

neutral Are there any cities where it rains a lot? neutral Several.Two good examples are Seattle, in the state of Washington, and Portland, Oregon. neutral Tell us about some cold cities. neutral In the north there are many cities which are very cold in the winter.Boston and Chicago are two of them. neutral Is it always cold in Chicago and Boston? neutral

Well, sometimes it's really nice.

Usually, but if one is prepared to endure a bit 125

neutral We work hard and spend less time at home because we are trying to provide for our family with goods and services that are usually unnecessary. neutral I don ’ t agree, but anyways, I think you should start thinking of a new year ’ s resolution yourself. neutral What ’ s the point? We always make a new year ’ s resolution and by February we will have forgotten about it. It ’ s pointless. neutral Well then maybe you should resolve to sticking to your goals and objectives. neutral What about you? Your gym bag is gathering dust and you still have brand new running shoes that are yet to be jogged in. neutral

Exactly, so this can not go on!

Exactly. Maybe if this month could go well, i'll get outdoors and take

happiness Oh, this one looks really good. And look at the garden. So beautiful. happiness Yes, nice. But I prefer this wooden house with a garden fence and a sloping roof. happiness Yes, but my house has large windows and so gets lots of sun. And it has a small balcony at the top. happiness Well, you can't compare a small balcony to this large veranda. This is perfect for having a barbecue in summer. happiness Talking about a barbecue, didn't you say you are organizing one next week? happiness

Right.The big day is coming soon.

That's right. What should be cooked? Donna told me that your

happiness Yes. It says it will be sunny all day. No sign of rain at all. happiness I'd like some toast and chicken wings. happiness Okay. Please take some fruit salad and crackers for me. happiness Done. Oh, don't forget to take napkins, disposable plates, cups and picnic blanket. happiness That's great. We can also take the dragon kite with us. After the picnic, we can fly it. happiness

You are so cute, Daddy.

Look out! Somebody is trying to call you.

neutral Isn ’ t London hot in the summer? neutral Well it can be but Shanghai is much warmer than London. neutral I see. What about transport? How does Shanghai compare to London? neutral Actually I think the buses and trains here are more modern. neutral And what about the number of people on the streets? neutral

There aren't as many crowds around.

Oh my, look at all this traffic. The cars aren't permitted any longer so everyone'

neutral Do you like the Harry potter books and movies? neutral Not really! neutral Why not? They are very fun and exiting. neutral Maybe, but I think they are just for kids. neutral No, that ’ s not true. Many adults like the Harry potter books too. neutral

What do these book have on them?

What're your favorite book? happiness The Power of One. It

neutral No wonder I haven ’ t seen you recently. Where did you spend your holidays? neutral I went with my husband. Our first stop was Bangkok. We stayed there for 5 days. Then we flew to Hong Kong, stopover for 3 days. Our last stop was China. We visited the Great Wall. happiness You must have a wonderful time. happiness Yes. We enjoyed ourselves very much. Have you traveled much, Luke? neutral No, my wife doesn ’ t like traveling. We haven ’ t been traveling for more than ten years. The first time we traveled together was in 1978 when we just got married. We spent our honeymoon in the Alps. neutral

What are your plans? Will it take long until your next holiday is coming again, then...

Oh, how nice! What places were most interesting then? How do they compare today. Now that

happiness Yes! We have all assumed that you were the quiet, shy type. neutral I guess everyone has a few secrets up their sleeve. neutral Where did you learn to sing like that? neutral I was part of a band in school. surprise You? Wow. And why don't you ever dress like that at work? neutral

My boss doesn't think it looks good.

It might give people unrealistic expectations about what kind happiness Hey. If

neutral Hey man! How ’ s it hanging? neutral Hey man! Everything is just groovy baby! neutral Did you go to the roller rink on Saturday? I heard it was far out, man! neutral I wanted to, but I ran into this foxy lady that just moved to my block! I was chatting her up a bit and then we mellowed out at her place. neutral Right on, right on! Well, Jim went to the rink with Sherry and he said it was dy-no-mite! He was low on bread, but Sherry paid for everything. neutral

So, how did your date go?

Gravy! She must have been smoking hot. disgust 10

neutral Did you do anything fun over the weekend? neutral I didn't want to go out last weekend, so I decided to stay at home and watch a movie. neutral Why didn't you want to go out? neutral I was very tired after working all week. Sometimes on the weekend I don't have enough energy to go out to a movie theater. neutral Did you download a movie or rent it at the store? neutral

I downloaded a copy from iTunes.

I downloaded one, but my internet connection isn

neutral Is there a lot of crime in your city? neutral There ’ s some, but I don ’ t think it ’ s a big problem. A lot of it is petty crime, burglary and car theft. There ’ s very little major crime. neutral It ’ s the same in my city. We also have a lot of drug addicts. A lot of the crime is committed by drug addicts who need money for drugs. neutral That happens in many places. In my city, there is a very good drug rehabilitation program. The police and courts are also tough on people who commit crimes, but I don ’ t know if that ’ s the reason for our relatively low crime rate. neutral Some people believe that a tough approach is better. Other prefer a more lenient approach. neutral

My friend believes in restiveness.

This afternoon we went to see a play about how to reduce the number Of young girls getting pregn

happiness That would be great! Actually, can I get your phone number, Ella? That ’ s assuming you don ’ t mind if I call you sometime. neutral Anytime. You can reach me 5558929. neutral ok, got it. I ’ ll call you sometime next week. neutral Fine. neutral It ’ s time to go and I hope we can get together again soon. neutral

Let's just say this isn't goodbye!

Good-bye, Elita! Hope all is well with the family back at home. Don'

neutral no-one really believes gossip columnists. neutral I think you ’ ll find that many people believe what they read in gossip columns. You ’ d also have to be very careful about every word you said. If you appeared on a chat show and said something silly, it would be reported in all the newspapers and magazines. neutral I think you ’ re right about that. I ’ d need a good manager to be my spokesperson. I could do a lot of charity work, which would help a lot of people. happiness That ’ s a great idea. Which charities would you support? neutral I love children, as you know, so probably a children ’ s charity. neutral

What else are your plans for?

Have any plans for your future, Jane? sadness Nope, not at

neutral yes, I got a grant to study Chinese. neutral that's a very difficult language to learn, isn't it? neutral it is, but it's very rewarding. neutral so you can speak Chinese? neutral I can, but not as well as I'd like to. I'll be studying Chinese until the day I die! neutral

how long did this take you then?

yeah, learning new things often goes along with getting older. happiness congrats

neutral Are you feeling better? neutral Yes, it helps me but I just have to wait and let my system do the work. neutral Do you need anything, grocery? neutral Oh, no, I'm fine.My refrigerator is piled up with food.But if it's not too much trouble for you. I'd like something to read. neutral Sure, I'll get it for you.Books or magazines? neutral

OK, whatever comes along.

You mean a paperback? happiness Thanks, Jim. It would make a great

neutral Sally, I ’ m tired of this Western food. I really miss my mother ’ s Sichuan cooking. neutral I ’ m sure you do miss that type of cooking. But can ’ t you try to get used to Western food? neutral I have tried. But Americans like butter, bread, sugar, and cream too much. neutral I suppose you ’ re right, Lee. Maybe that ’ s why so many Westerners are overweight. neutral It ’ s interesting that Americans work very hard at their jobs, do not take naps during the day, and yet they can be so heavy. neutral

Well, if people exercise everyday, they will lose weight rather than getting fatter.

Yes, maybe we need less exercis 5. 3.. surprise W

neutral Well, it would give me a chance to grow, but I am wondering if I would like the job. neutral I know what you mean, I've thought about that myself. neutral I am also thinking about the pay. neutral Could you take a slight pay decrease for a chance to move forward? neutral Yes, it might be worth it. I am not certain. neutral

Do your family have any opinion?

What are your strengths and weakness as far as career is going? happiness

neutral Did you go to Berlin? neutral No, We didn't go there. I'd like to go there next time. happiness I think this summer is a good time to visit Berlin. It's a beautiful place and the people there are very nice. happiness That's what I've heard. happiness I went there last year. If you want, I can give you some information I have about the city. happiness

Thank you for that, Jane.

OK, thank. surprise You did? Oh dear! How many days was your

neutral Look at this survey conducted by a website. A quarter of the employees will spend an average of 10 minutes everyday online doing personal things. Hi, Francis, what about you? neutral Well, I just spend 15 minutes as so checking my stock bonds and booking an air ticket for my mother. Anyway, I have done all my work and it is about the time to leave. neutral Though our company doesn ’ t have a return policy, limiting the personal use of internet, I don ’ t think the boss will like us to do that. neutral Certainly, work always comes first. neutral But it is lucky for us. The company computers don ’ t have software keeping tracks of websites we visit. I have shopped too often online these days. neutral

What can be said, people should keep their own. It is called information society nowadays!

Oh! You should save more money from now on, especially when there aren't many sales during

neutral The principal just announced that Dr. Smith is going to take over as dean of our department. neutral Oh. neutral Why are you so calm? Are you not surprised to hear this? neutral No, I knew it all along. He was the obvious choice. neutral Do you think he can do well? neutral

Of course, yes.

Sure, if we give a hand. happiness You said it! It's

happiness Hi, Tina, I've got good news. I have successfully passed the first two rounds of interview with ABC Company. They informed me to go to the final round next Monday. It looks very promising. happiness That is awesome. Congratulations! I know you can make it. happiness Thanks. Let's go for a celebration this evening. Are you free? happiness Yes. Wait for me at the cafe down my office building. Say 5 PM, ok? happiness No problem. See you! happiness

Thank you so much. You helped a lot!

Goodbye and all the best. neutral You seem nervous about going on an

neutral I want to be a vet. neutral A-what? neutral A vet-a veterinary surgeon. neutral Good gracious! What's that? neutral A vet's a man who takes care of sick animals. He's an animal doctor. neutral

How do you become such a thing?

Oh. happiness Very interesting! Do you really know what it is? It sounds ter

neutral OK. What are the biggest cities? neutral The biggest city? The biggest city is Sydney, then it's followed by Melbourne and then Brisbane and then I think it's Perth. But most of the big cities are on the East Coast of Australia. And Perth is on the west coast, but sort of of out there by itself. neutral OK. Um, if you had to live in one place where would you live? neutral I like Brisbane. I had my teenage years in Brisbane, growing up in Brisbane, um or maybe Sidney because it is a big city, but Brisbane has got the gold coast and the sunshine. neutral Oh, nice. Actually, what is the capital city of Australia? neutral

That depends. If you take all these little countries, that we call states within Canada...

Yes! That's Canberra right? surprise No, not exactly. You

neutral Yes, I understand. neutral The bus will bring you back 6 days later on December 8th. Is someone coming to get you? neutral No, I don't have a ride yet. neutral We will be leaving the campground at 5 in the evening and arrive at our campus at 8 p.m.Any more questions. neutral How much will the trip cost? neutral

It costs about $70 for each person including everything from here to New England.

Exciting! You know we are doing great things for environment here. It has been very hot

neutral What was your childhood like? neutral I had a pretty strict upbringing, and my parents taught at an university so they have extremely high expectations for me. neutral Where did you go to university? neutral My parents wanted me to stay in Beijing, but I decided to go back to England. I graduated from University of Newcastle upon Tyne with a degree in Cross Culture Communication. neutral What is your current occupation? neutral

42 - year- old married white woman.

It looks like dinner is served!

It is just about dinner-time now, isn ’ d you agree? Let us take the new

neutral Steven, I need badly your help. neutral What's the matter? neutral My wife has found that I have an affair with my secretary, and now she is going to divorce me. surprise How could you cheat on your wife? You have been married for ten years. neutral Yes, I know I'm wrong. But I swear that the affair lasts only for two months. And I still love my wife. I couldn't live without her. neutral

Then, tell it all.

Well, what do you want from me then? happiness Nothing, just tell others

neutral good idea. neutral don't forget to keep the seat belt on. neutral ok. Hope it's a pleasant trip. neutral yes! neutral and no hijackers. neutral

you know I can drive now.

neutral that's OK. Have you sent your CV out to anyone yet? neutral I've sent my CV to dozens of companies but nobody has got back to me. neutral did you write a clear objective in your resume? neutral no, because I didn't know what I wanted to do. neutral I think you need to update your CV. Bring it over to my office tomorrow and I'll help you with it. happiness

That is great, Mr. Anderson.

That would be very nice of you, Mr. White! Do we have any more work coming up

neutral What does she teach? neutral English, of course. neutral Is she your teacher? neutral Yes.She teaches our class three times a week. neutral Can she speak Chinese to her students? neutral

She doesn't know any Spanish, either.

No, it ’ s not allowed by the school-d rules.

neutral Marquet, do you think I should enroll in the science course? neutral Yes, I think so, If you want to graduated this year, you've got to take a science course. neutral Right, I figure since you are doing premedical, you know about the very courses. neutral Well, I have to take biology, chemistry, maps and physics. What you need is a good introductory course for non-science majors. sadness Yes, I really weak in maps, I did poorly in high school. neutral

Why don ’ t we sign up together, It might help both of us understand better.

Why don't we sign up together then. happiness Let me pick up your

neutral Where did you go there. neutral I went to there on business. neutral And do you have friend there? neutral Yes, a lot of friends. neutral You must enjoy yourself. neutral

What about the food and drinks.

Doing shopping for example. happiness It's very interesting, isn ’ t

surprise Good?! For them but not to me. neutral So, what's the problem? neutral We have to participate in training after a busy day and during the weekend. You know, after work all you want to do is throw yourself onto your bed. And during the Weekend, you just want to stay at home and enjoy a family dinner. neutral Yes, you are right. But one should keep learning daily to maintain our keen mental power expand our intellectual capacity. Constant learning drive us to Sharp our power of reasoning, analysis and judgement. neutral Yes, I agree with you on the point but couldn't the training be held during the working day instead of weekend? neutral

It seems no choice for now.

Well, we need some time for rest. The more tired we get the harder to learn something new

neutral The company is selecting three employees to attend the marketing seminar next month. Did you put your name in for it? neutral No, I don't really care too much for seminars... I find them to be either boring ot useless. I mean, how much can you really learn in one afternoon? neutral It's not just about the things that you learn, you know... seminars are a really great opportunity to mingle and network with professionals in our industry from all over the nation. You can learn a few things, but more importantly, you rub shoulders with the business leaders and make contacts that could lead to potential sales or partnerships in the future. The social mixers are always more important than the seminars anyway. neutral I'm still not too jazzed about going... I feel kind of awkward in those cocktail party situations. neutral Well, what if I told you the seminar is going to be held in Hawaii? Does that perk your interest? neutral

That doesn' t sound very good...

Oh my gosh, now we were talking! Send me there right away. What date does this

neutral All of the time tested healthy habits from around the world. neutral You have done a lot of traveling. I'll bet you've learned quite a bit. neutral The interesting thing is to see what really works and what's just hype. neutral Because you can see the results with the general public? neutral That's right. I think we all have much we can learn from each other. happiness

This book has great information!

Exactly. neutral So this week on'Fight Thir-t '

neutral Who was the conductor? happiness Oh, speaking of the conductor, he is indeed a genius.He did a perfect job.His name is Menuhin, a descendent of Russian American immigrants. happiness Oh, I learned that he is also a legendary violinist. happiness Absolutely right.He gave a performance of Felix Mendelssohn's violin concerto.That caused a sensation.The audience were stunned by his pure tone. happiness Obviously you did enjoy the concert. happiness

Yes, it really made my evening!

Surely we had. And it has been nearly forty years later!

neutral How ’ s that going? neutral It ’ s a lot harder than I imagined. There are many things that you have to to arrange. I booked a time and date with the funeral home, but I still have a lot of things to do. neutral Have you bought a burial plot and a casket? neutral No. Wendy is being cremated. She always talked about how she didn ’ t want to be buried. I already chose a cremation urn and we plan to spread the ashes in the ocean. neutral I see, that sounds like something she would have really liked. I am sure the memorial service will be tasteful. You are doing a great job. neutral

Exactly where it was supposed to be.

Thanks! 7-8 -05. This number has just called me again, it'

neutral How's business? happiness Great. We can't keep up with the demand. surprise Wow! I'm impressed! neutral How about you? neutral I quit my job as a food critic. happiness

That must make your parents happy!

That is great. sadness Well, nothing works out all at once, does

neutral How is he? neutral Not very well. He was white about the gills. neutral Did he see the doctor? neutral Yeah, but he refused to take the medicine. neutral Why? neutral

Because it's expensive.

I don ’ t know. Anyway, we have a bad time now with him in the home.

neutral Have you sent out invitations by our party? neutral Yes, I have. neutral When? neutral Ten days ago. neutral Could Dr.Cole like to attend the party? neutral

Of course, he can go.

You know, he has been busy recently.What dose his agency say about that?

neutral yes. I can show you examples of some footages that was taken with this camera in the dark. neutral that's not bad at all. How's the microphone? Does it pick up much sound? neutral It can record any sound that's within about 8 feet of the camera. neutral how does that compare with other models? neutral there are models that can pick up more sound than this one, but they're much bigger and heavier than this one. neutral

is your company working on developing an even better product? You must know something by now...

well. This looks like a good choice to start off my shopping for video products, especially as

neutral Do you think what I did to Elvin was out of line? neutral You could have tried to explain to him about the new programmers. neutral Elvin doesn't want any programming help. He wants all the glory for himself. neutral You might be right. He does think pretty highly of himself. neutral Did you hear the names he was calling me? neutral

That would get a person riled up.

Yeah. But, maybe they were deserved--he wasn disgust Maybe so

happiness Which day would suit you? happiness Any day except Tuesday. happiness How about Thursday? happiness Yes, Thursday would be fine. What time shall I come? happiness Oh, about 6:00. Will that be OK? happiness

It's quite all right. See you later!

Sure it will. We'll take the bus from PHS and meet there at 5:

happiness You are smart. neutral Of course, the sports shoes don ’ t go with the formal occasions. neutral You are right. What kind of shoes should I wear? happiness The brown leather shoes go well with your trousers. happiness Good idea. Oh, by the way, would you please pick me up after the party, honey? neutral

Why can ’ t we share an old car?

Why do all these questions? sadness It is hard for a man to keep

neutral Come on! You can just walk up to a girl and say “ If you were a booger I \'d pick you first. ” neutral What? Come on! That ’ s just lame! No girl would fall for that! neutral Fine, then you can say, “ So there you are! I'Ve been looking all over for YOU, the woman of my dreams! ” neutral That's a good one! I think that's pretty funny. neutral Yeah, so you make her laugh, you make a fool of yourself a little bit and then you buy her a drink. happiness

It sounds easy, but it really works!

Sounds simple. Let'abs be your wingman! anger Hey, look

happiness Brad Bush? Good for you! neutral But I don't know what to do. neutral You mean you've never had a boyfriend? neutral My mom says no boyfriend until I'm in college. surprise Until college? neutral

She wants me focus on my major.

That would make it hard, huh! 0 surprise Exactly. And my

neutral You got it! I have a new job, I ’ m living in a new city, with new friends! This is my opportunity to make some small changes in the way I live my life. neutral So what are you going to do? Take up an art class or something? neutral Well, first of all, I ’ Ve decided to stop smoking. It ’ s not that I ’ m pinching pennies or anything, it ’ s just that I ’ Ve been smoking since I was sixteen, and I think it ’ s time to stop. neutral I ’ m with you on that one. Anything else you ’ re planning on doing? neutral One last thing, I ’ Ve decided to come out of the closet. neutral

What did your mom say?

Are your family still busy? anger Yes! They don ’ d know about this

neutral Why are you in such a hurry? neutral I should finish it as soon as possible. neutral Don't worry, do it step by step neutral Why can I learn it? neutral Don't worry, do it step by step. neutral

Can we get on with our work?

Can you help me? 145 happinessness Hey, Steven. You

neutral No way. Her old man is rich. He buys her anything she wants. happiness Lucky her. Anyway, I think that is just as beautiful. neutral I think you've lost it. neutral Well, that's my opinion. happiness I admit that she is much prettier than Kate. neutral

But, so what! That won't do for us.

But do people really care about such a question? surprise What! Why would we

happiness Do you like swimming? happiness Yes. Swimming is one of my most favorite sports, indoors or out-doors. happiness Me too. Swimming is a very good exercise for health. It combines water, bath, sunbath, and air bath together. It promotes the growth and haleness of muscles, bone, viscera and nerve systems. happiness I have never thought that swimming can bring us so many benefits. I only know that swimming in great waves and deep running water can train people's spirits, and enable people to be fearless of the hardships, dangers and difficulties and become brave and staunch. happiness Have you ever swum in a river or a lake? happiness

No, I just think it really exciting.

Many times. neutral What are your special skills about it? How long does this

neutral Yes, but we can ’ t deny that animals are vulnerable, defenseless, and are completely at the mercy of human beings. neutral I understand your point, but we continue to have transgressions against human rights. If so much attention weren ’ t devoted to the topic of animals, we would then concentrate more on saving a human being instead of protecting a koala. neutral You can ’ t compare apples and oranges. I believe that both topics are important and that we can ’ t ignore them, the mistreatment of animals can cause a great environmental imbalance. I believe that governments should prohibit activities like poaching. neutral Well, you are right on that point. This is the reason that I don ’ t buy leather and I try to buy synthetic products. neutral At least you ’ re doing your part. My contribution is to have a pet in the house that I treat like a member of the family. neutral

So, how long do you plan to keep him?

We all know how valuable it has become. People will pay thousands for something made out off these cre

neutral Yes, I do. I think we can compete. I think we can make a name for ourselves.It will be hard at first. But if we develop a good advertising campaign, I think we can break into the market. neutral The company will have to choose a good advertising firm.And then there's the problem of quality.How do we convince American buyers that our quality is good? neutral It takes some time.Because even if the quality is high, people won't accept a high tech product unless they recognize the name.Name recognition is crucial. neutral Well, I hope it all works out, John. I think if you're part of the team, things will go well.But you know we'd all miss you here. So I won't say I'm happy to think that you're leaving. neutral That's very nice of you to say.But if we set up an office there in the States, maybe you could try to become part of it. neutral

Yeah, maybe. You don worry too much?

Good idea, but what would I call myself.

neutral How are they at swimming? neutral They ’ re ok. I ask them to swim 500 meters each day. That ’ s 20 lengths of the swimming pool. They ’ re not very fast, but that ’ s ok. I just want them to build their strength up and keep in shape. neutral Kate is very good at diving from a height of 10 meters. neutral I ’ d be afraid to jump from that height! neutral I think that these kinds haven ’ t learnt to be afraid yet. She started diving from a lower height, but she soon wanted to go higher. neutral

Are you going with her on Sunday?

Diving seems such a dangerous sports. If someone falls when trying high dived, he must hit

neutral Do you miss your family? neutral Yes. neutral Do you often go home? neutral No. But I write to them often. neutral How often do you write to them? neutral

Once every three months or so.

Once in a few months. surprise You're really busy with your study,

neutral He's the US president, who walked five miles just to give a lady her change, isn't he? neutral That's the one. He also was famous for never giving up on his goals. neutral That's right. He ran for office quite a few times before he was finally elected. happiness And I also admire him for his courage in fighting for equal rights. happiness He had great vision, didn't he? happiness

Yes, and we have his name to thank.

Yes indeed! surprise Wake, wake... What time is it today?

neutral Do you have any breaks? neutral We have an hour-long lunch break from 12 to 1. we can take coffee breaks during the day. My boss doesn ’ t mind, as long as we get out work done on time. neutral My boss gets annoyed if we take coffee breaks. I suppose your job involves a lot paperwork, doesn ’ t it? neutral There ’ s some paperwork, but most of the time we put any information onto computers. Then we can send information to each other by email or across the network. Do you work in a cubicle? neutral Yes, I do. I don ’ t like it very much. neutral

Why are they called that.

How about meetings? Are they important part for you. and when is their usually set up,

neutral Hello, is Jack there? neutral Speaking. neutral Jack! It ’ s Rose here. neutral Hi, Rose. How ’ s everything? happiness Fine, thanks. I ’ m having several friends over for dinner this Saturday. And I was wondering if you have the time to join us. happiness

That would very much appreciate.

That sounds great! When do your want? 10 o'clock, maybe. Are any

neutral You've simply forgotten to wind it up, have you? When do you usually wind it up? neutral In the coming, before going to work. neutral You got up so late today. You have, I think. Turn on the TV and set your watch by it. happiness OK. I'll turn it on. happiness All right. It's just four o'clock. happiness

Thank for telling me.

Exactly. 120 hours, aren ’ t there? sadness

neutral Going to the gym tonight, Mary? neutral Yes, Sally. I want to do some sit-ups and perhaps get in a game of singsong. happiness That sounds like fun.Would you mind some company? happiness I'd love it.Working out is more fun with a friend. happiness I'll get my things and meet you there. happiness

See, that was easy. Now let's go!

Good luck. sadness You know how hard they make me work, S

happiness Someone brings a truck to the game and we have a barbecue right there in the parking lot out of the back of the truck! happiness How fun! Can I bring something? neutral Don't worry about it! Just come at five. neutral I make a mean potato salad! happiness Well, if you insist, you are welcome to bring a potato salad! happiness

Thanks. We will see you later, huh?

OK! And maybe even some dessert. neutral Daddy will get mad,

neutral Please fill out this application. neutral Then what do I do? neutral I just need to take your picture. neutral How long will it take for my passport to be ready? neutral You will get it in a few weeks. happiness

That works. Thank you very much!

Thanks. neutral All right, please have any questions that you might want an-

neutral Would you please put that cigarette out? I get sick on it. neutral You do? OK, fine with me. happiness Thank you SO much. neutral But I also want ya to do me a favor. neutral What? neutral

Please keep smoking.

Go and have coffee, will you! Please! neutral No way. That stuff

anger Then, why didn't you try to prevent it in the beginning? neutral Well. It's not all my fault, Anna. You are responsible, too. anger I don't want to argue anymore. Please get out of my life! neutral I think we can still talk. anger No way! Please don't follow me around. neutral

But we haven ’ t done that.

OK. Goodbye! disgust What a bitch she is, and
