W: Oh no! I don't have Amanda's phone number.

M: What's wrong, Miyako?

W: Amanda said we should get together again, and that I should call her. But I don't have her phone number.  

M: I see. Well, don't worry about it.For Americans, that's usually a friendly way to say goodbye. It's like when Americans say, "Hello. How are you?" But they don't want you to tell them how you are. It's just a friendly greeting.

W: So, saying "Let's get together sometime" is similar to that?

M: Yeah, that's right.

M: Maria, what do you want to see in London tomorrow?

W: I'd like to go to the zoo tomorrow morning. And then I'll go to the British Museum in the afternoon.

M: Well, you know, there's a lot to see in the museum.

W: Oh, yes indeed. After that, I'd like to go to the Tower of London.  

M: But I don't think you have enough time. Probably you can go there the day after tomorrow.

W: Okay then. I just wanted to make the most of my stay in Britain. I'll stay in London for three days, and I'll go to Oxford to see a friend. That'll take me two days.  I'll also go to Manchester and stay there for one day. That's what I planned.

M: Your sister is studying in Edinburgh, right?   

W: Yes. That's why I'll stay there most of my days.

M:  The doctor just told me I have to be careful about things I eat.

W: Like what?

M: Well, for example, he told me to eat fish. No more hamburgers or fried chicken.

W: Yuck. I hardly eat fish. I don't like it at all.  

M: I don't either. He wants me to eat a lot of vegetables too, especially green ones. But that's okay. I like them.

W: Oh, vegetables. I often have carrots and tomatoes. They are my favorites.

M:  He also told me not to drink any coffee. That's difficult.  I love drinking coffee in the morning.

W: I know what you mean. I do too. But I drink too much, six or eight cups a day. Coffee with a piece of cake or pie after a good meal is...

M: A piece of cake or pie! The doctor said I should say no to them too.

W: I almost always have them in my house. You know, I don't think I'd like your doctor very much.

M: Hi, Betty.Haven't seen you for ages! How are you?

W: Fine. It has been ten years since we graduated, and you haven't changed much.  Did you have any trouble getting here?

M: No trouble at all. After checking in at the hotel by the train station, I followed the directions you texted me over the mobile phone.

W: I'm glad you came over to see me and Jack.

M: I miss both of you very much. How's Jack? Where is he?  

W: He is out shopping for our dinner tonight,  and will be back in a minute.

M: Thank you for having me here at your home.

W: What do you feel like doing while you're here?

M:Well, I'd like to look at the historic buildings.

W:No problem. We can show you around the old town, you know, Benjamin Franklin and the Liberty Bell and some very good museums.

M: That's great.

W: By the way, the International House is running a really fine film program. Would you like to see it?

M: Well, I'm just here for two days.  I'm afraid I don't have time for films.

W: Hi, everyone.  As we're waiting here, let me introduce Castle Howard to you. Castle Howard has become a popular tourist attraction in recent years.  Though its name contains the word "castle", it is not a true castle because it is never used for defense. Castle Howard is actually an English country house. It has been home of the Howard family for more than 300 years.  Over the years, a number of films have been shot there. When you visit it tomorrow, you'll see many things. Perhaps there's too much to see. But make sure you don't miss these two things. First, the Walled Gardens. It is a group of three gardens. You can find 2,000 different types of roses there, almost all types of roses in England.  The Walled Gardens is open every day of the year, except the holiday. Second, the Ray Garden. It is known for flowering plants, fruit trees, and pathways through a wooded setting. In a word, Castle Howard is really beautiful. You could spend a whole day enjoying its beauty tomorrow.
