M: Kate, what are you writing?

W: A letter to my sister.

M: Why not send an email to her? It's faster.

W: Well, I love email for convenience, but I tend to write letters for pleasure, especially for holiday greetings.

M: You're right. I prefer hand-written birthday cards, too.

W: And I love getting letters, too. Hearing a letter drop through the mailbox is much more exciting than getting an email, even though it's usually a bill or advertisement in my case.

M: Oh, that reminds me. I haven't checked my mailbox for ages!

M: Good evening, ma'am. My name is Bob and I'll be serving your table tonight. May I take your order?

W: Yes. I'll have classic cooked chicken salad and my daughter would like beefsteak.

M: Great choices, but the steak might be a bit too much for a child. Just letting you know.

W: In that case, no steak. Could you recommend something else?

M: Sure. How about the French fries? They are a favorite among our younger guests.

W: Sounds good. She'll have that. Thanks.

M: It's my pleasure. Any starters or desserts? If you order both, you'll have 10% off the total bill.

W: I think we're fine with just the main courses. It's always good to be mindful of not wasting food.

M: All right. Your order will be ready shortly.

M: I'm really bored at the moment.

W: Let's play a game. I'll describe someone, and you try to guess who it is. OK?

M: OK, go ahead.

W: This man is tall and thin. He has blue eyes and curly brown hair.

M: Does he have a moustache or a beard?

W: Good question. Yes, he has a moustache, but no beard.

M: Sounds like Mike, doesn't it?

W: Yes, you're right! Now you describe someone we both know.

M: OK. She's not very tall, but she is a little heavy. She has blond hair.

W: I don't think I know anyone like that.

M: And she wears fashionable shoes. In fact, she wears fashionable clothes, too.

W: This doesn't sound like anyone I know. I give up. Tell me who she is.

M: She's your mother!

W: Ah, that's actually a pretty good description. But it's embarrassing that I couldn't figure that out. My own mother! Do you think appearance is the most important thing about a person?

M: No, but it's more important than a person's character in the game we are playing.

W: Good morning, everyone. I'm Monica from Canada, and I'll teach you English writing this term. Before we start, I'd like to take a few minutes to let you know something about me. When I was small, I enjoyed spending my summers reading storybooks instead of playing baseball or taking dance lessons. After I went to school, I took reading time seriously.In college, I thought I might major in journalism or history, but when I took my first literature class, I was deeply attracted to it. The calling to be an English major was in my heart, and I couldn't imagine spending my study hours without Shakespeare, Chaucer, or Lewis by my side. I learned the art of making connections between literature and life, and developed a taste for writing. After graduation, I taught English in a primary school in Canada for five years. Then I went to Australia and worked as a book editor. Three years ago, I came to China. I've been teaching English in middle schools. I love my job and I'm thankful for the gift of words and for the life, beauty, and learning that come from language.
