W: Excuse me, do you have a fitting room?

M: Yes, it's on the right-hand side behind that cash desk.

W: Can I bring more than one dress to try on? 

M: Sure.

M: Oh, I wish I hadn't borrowed this camera from Larry. I dropped it and it doesn't work now.

W: Let's go downtown and find someone to fix it. 

M:OK. 

Text3

M: Kate, good news. The company I did a field project for offered me a job at a good starting salary. 

W:Wonderful, Bill. Let's have a party this weekend. 

Text4

W: I can't decide where to take my mom to dinner for her birthday. Crest Café or Blue Plate?

M: Crest Café is better. Or you can try King Lee's. I had dinner there yesterday. It was fantastic. 

W: OK, I'll try it, thanks.

W: Oh, Bob, you are wet all over. Where did you go?

M: I went to jog in the park.

W: Didn't you know there would be a thunderstorm today? 

M: I knew there would be a shower, but I didn't expect it would rain cats and dogs.

W:Oh dear, I gained five pounds in the last two months. These jeans don't fit me now. 

M: Don't worry, you still look pretty.

W: But it's too quick. I eat healthy foods and drink plenty of water. I haven't done anything differently. What gives?

M: Maybe because of those healthy foods. You know, too much dark chocolate, nuts and fruits can all lead to weight gain.

W: You're right, I should stop eating them.

M: No needs, dear.  You can just take more exercise and still enjoy those foods.

W: Hello, Joshua. 

M: Hi, Maria, I'm sorry we can't be at your place on time. 

W: Yeah, we were wondering where you were. What happened?

M: We seem to have made a wrong turn and got lost.

W: Where are you? 

M: Let me see. We passed the national bank on Elmer Road ten minutes ago and we're now on a street with a tall white building. I think it's Poplar Street. 

W: Gee, you really are lost. The best thing to do is to drive back down Elmer Road until you get to Weston Hospital and then turn right.

M: Drive back down Elmer Road.

W: Yes, after you turn right at the hospital, Cider Street will be the second street on your right.

M: Got it, thanks. Hopefully we'll be there by 7:30.

M: Excuse me, I'm calling about the ad for the flat.

W: Yeah, it's still available.

M: Good. The ad says the rent is nine hundred and fifty pounds a month. Could it be eight hundred pounds if I rent it for a longer period of time? 

W: Possible. We can talk about it. By the way you can find someone to share the rent. You know, it's a two-bedroom flat.

M: Thank you for the advice. Uh, how close is the flat to London College? I have classes every weekday there.

W: It's about eight blocks from the college, but you can take a number of buses right out in front.

M: Oh, if there's a busy road out front, is it noisy?

W: Well, it's a little noisy, but the place is really convenient. There's a shopping center right across the street. 

M: I see.Is it possible for me to drop by and see the flat tomorrow? 

W:Sure. You can take No.9 bus and get off at the art gallery. 

M: Thanks. See you tomorrow.

W: Oh, so slow.

M:Yeah, it's a long line. People are buying a lot for the holiday.  Would you like to go ahead of me?

W: Really? Thank you so much.My husband is waiting outside the store and we're in a hurry.  I really appreciate it.

M: That's okay. If you don't mind, could you pay it forward by doing something kind for someone else?

W: Sure. I'd love to. I will figure out something nice to do on my way back.

M: By the way I'm doing it for Random Acts of Kindness Week. Could I tell you something about it?

W: Yes, please.

M: It's initiated by the local church. We do it from Monday to Thursday. On Monday we encouraged people to smile more. Tuesday's challenge was to have lunch with someone we don't normally eat with. Yesterday we had the third challenge: volunteering. I helped at a nursing home. Today we do something for someone in need and ask them to pay it forward. 

W: That's great. I love it. How can I join?

M: Here is the website. Just apply online. It's simple. 

W: Okay. I'll do it now.

W: Good afternoon, everyone. I'm here to offer you some tips on public speaking. One of the worst mistakes you can make as a public speaker is talking too long.  It doesn't matter if your entire speech was good and the audience came away with information that would change their lives. If you talk too long, they will leave saying that speaker just wouldn't quit. Don't let this happen to you. Say what you have to say and sit down.Before you finish, give them a well-thought-out ending. The last thing you say is generally what the audience remembers most.  Just like your opening, your ending doesn't have to be humorous. It could be challenging, thoughtful or it could retell your point in a different way. Please at some time during your talk, ask the audience to do something. Many a great talk went no farther than the walls of the meeting room, because the audience wasn't moved to action.  If you haven't asked them to do something by now, the ending is your last chance.
