M: Hello.

W: Hello. I’m calling about the apartment you advertised in the newspaper.

第二节

Text 6

M: Mary, I am here!

W: Oh, hi! I’m sorry I’m so late. The car wouldn’t start, so I had to come by bus.

M: Oh, no. What do you think is the matter with your car?

W: Well, it wouldn’t start at all. I mean, I turned the key and nothing happened. So I guess it’s something to do with the electrical system.

M: Well, let’s forget about that now, and order our food. What would you like? The fish is good.

Text 7

M: Right, where shall we go now? We’ve seen the church and the modern art exhibition. I don’t know what else there is here.

W: How about some shops? I could buy something to take back for the kids.

M: Mmm… yes. OK. Let’s go down here and we’ll go into the main street.

W: You know, it’s really good of you to spend so much time showing me around.

M: Oh, that’s all right. I’m enjoying it, actually. You know how it is. When you live in a town, you never really look at it yourself. Come on, let’s go down here.

Text 8

W: Do you have a moment, Mark?

M: Yeah, sure, Susan.

W: I know this is short notice, but I wonder if you’d be able to fly out and give a speech about our project this weekend.

M: But I thought you were going to do that.

W: Well, yes. I was. But I’m terribly busy at the moment.

M: This weekend? Couldn’t John go? He knows all about the project.

W: Yeah, but he doesn’t know the people, and he doesn’t know the city. Mark, I think you’re the right person for the job.

M: I get the message.

W: Thanks, Mark.

M: Yeah.

Text 9

W: Hi, Tony!

M: Hello, Kate! How are you?

W: Oh, fine, thanks. And you and Jane?

M: Oh, we’re fine. How long are you staying?

W: Just a couple of days. And then I’ll be back to work in Tokyo.

M: What a pity you are not staying in London for a bit longer. Anyway, how about dinner tonight?

W: I’d love to, but I’m seeing some customers from Oxford this evening. What about tomorrow?

M: That’d be lovely. Jane will be pleased.

W: What time shall I come?

M: How about eight?

W: Great. I’ll see you tomorrow then.

Text 10

W: Oh, Frank’s in your class? He was in my class last term. I didn’t like him at all.

M: What? You didn’t like Frank? He’s one of my best students.

W: Oh, no. Not Frank! He was always asking questions. Frank always interrupted me and the other students. He was never quiet.

M: Yes, that’s Frank. That’s why he is such a good student. He is always thinking and trying to use English. He laughs a lot. Frank doesn’t worry about making mistakes. I enjoy having him in class.

W: Not me. I love students like David. Do you have him in your conversation class this term?

M: Yes, but to be honest, David is too quiet for me. I can’t tell if he’s learning. David is so silent. He doesn’t say anything.

W: Yes, that’s David. That’s how good students should be. They have to listen to their teachers.

Text 11

M: When I tell people that I paint the Golden Gate Bridge, they think I start at one end, paint to the other end, and then start again. But that’s not true. We are always painting the bridge. But we have to go where paint is in bad condition. It’s a dangerous job. You have to be careful all the time. You can’t work or appear without safety equipment. And the weather, it gets colder up here. Sometimes it’s so cold there’s ice on the bridge. You have to wear warm clothes. Sometimes it’s windy and foggy. On foggy days, you can’t see anything. Other times, you are both the fog. The view from the top is the thing that I love about the job. On a sunny day like today, you can see from the ocean to the port and all the way to the mountains.
