M:I got hit in the mouth when I was playing basketball.  

W: Oh, that’s too bad! Let me see. Now, open your mouth, please. Well, you’re lucky. I need to work on only two teeth. I’ll fix them first and then give you some medicine to take after meals.   Is that OK with you?

M: Much more than OK! I thought that they would have to be taken out. But can I eat something after you do it? I have a date at seven o’clock tonight.

W: Don’t worry. You can have soft food after 30 minutes, and then anything you want after four hours.

M: Good morning.Since so many of you have asked me about how to learn a language, I thought it might be useful to take some class time today to discuss it.   Betty, you speak several foreign languages, don’t you?

W: Yes, I speak Spanish and French.  

M: And can you tell me what helped you most in learning these languages?

W: What helped me most... Well, I studied both languages in high school, and I’m still studying Spanish here at the university,but I think that travel has been the most helpful to me.  

M: Yes. When you live in a country where the language is spoken, it’s perfect.

W: That’s true. But whether or not I’m living in a country where the language is spoken, I also watch TV or listen to the radio in the language I’m trying to learn.

M: That’s good.

M: Sara, it’s going to be a wonderful day for hiking in the woods tomorrow. The old pine forest is home to many wild animals. We might spot some deer if we are lucky. I have been looking forward to our summer vacation.

W: Yeah, but Paul,I’m a little bit worried about the weather though. The weatherman said it was going to rain tonight.  

M: Ah, nonsense. Nothing can spoil our adventure. Those weather reports are never right.

W: Paul, Paul!Did you remember to bring our raincoats just in case as I told you?  

M: Here they are. And I brought two extra pairs of boots just in case it gets really wet in the forest.

W: Hiking in the forest right after the rain isn’t pleasant. The ground will be really wet and muddy.  

M: We can do other things like fishing.

W: Good idea. We always enjoy fishing.

M: Let’s set up a tent first and then build a campfire tonight.

W: Here are some hot dogs and bread I brought from home. Let’s have that for dinner.

M: Great! I will have some beer as well.

W: What if it rains tonight? Camping would be impossible.

M: Hmm, then we’d better stay in a hotel tonight. There is one just a 15-minute walk away from here.  

W:That’s a good idea.

M: Almost two-thirds of children want their parents to spend more time reading to them before bed.Researchers said most of these kids liked Mom’s storytelling more than Dad’s. They carried out a study that showed younger children aged 3-4 were most hungry for more stories.Over three quarters of them said they wished their parents to read to them more often.   About half of all children aged 3-8 said story time was their favorite pastime with their parents. According to the research, there are two ways for mothers to become best storytellers.They can use funny voices to show different characters in a story.   They can also make their own special sounds to keep the story interesting and attractive. When Mom and Dad are not at hand, celebrities will do. Over 30 percent of children said they would like to hear a bedtime story from famous people like Harry Potter, starred by Daniel Radcliffe. Other movie stars like Zac Efron, Miley Cyrus and Emma Watson are also welcomed by children. "It can be very difficult for parents to find time to read with their children.But these moments can help build close relationships between parents and children, and also can play an important part in their children’s development," said child psychologist Richard Woolfson.
