W:Can I help you?
M:Yes, can you show me the way to Gate 9 for Flight 101 to Hong Kong? I’m quite confused here.
Text 2
W:Could you tell me the starting time for both movies?
M:Sure. The first begins at 7 and lasts for 2 hours and 45 minutes. The second follows right after.

M:The taxi is waiting downstairs. Let’s hurry.
W:Wait a minute. I’ll take some food with us. I don’t like the meals served on the train.

W:It seems that Cathy is very cold-hearted.
M:Not really. May it is because you are a stranger to her.
Text 5
W:I often see the light in your room on late into the night. You often forget to turn it off?
M:No, it’s Nancy. She likes nothing better than staying up late.

M:How long have you been in China?
W:Since last June, about one year.
M:Was it cold last winter?
W:Yes, it was, but not as cold as my hometown, Paris.
M:Did you have much snow in Paris last winter?
W:Yes, but we didn’t have as much snow as you have here.
M:What is the weather like in autumn in Paris?
W:It is the most beautiful season. The days are clear and dry. And it is sunny and warm all the time. But November is terrible. We have a lot of rain.
M:What about last spring?
W:It was very nice. But May is nicer than March and April.

M:Hello.
W:Er... a friend told me that you have dance classes here.
M:That’s right.
W:Can you give me some information about days and times, please？
M:Yes, there are four classes a day from Monday to Saturday, nothing on Sunday.
W:Yeah.
M:The first one is from 8:30 to 9:30. Then there is one in the afternoon from 2:30 to 3:30.
W:Right.
M:There are two classes in the evening. One is from 6:30 to 7:30 and the other from 7:30 to 8:30.
W:I think I’ll take the 6:30 to 7:30.

M:Susan, can you help me make a decision?
W:What kind of decision is that?
M:You see, I am going to take a two-week holiday next January, and I wonder if I should go to Spain or Switzerland.
W:Hmm, that is a difficult decision. Both are great places. So, let’s see what you want to do then. Do you like snow?
M:Yes, very much, and that’s why I’m thinking of going to such a place as Switzerland.
W:Right then, do you want to get away from the cold weather here?
M:That’s also my wish, so I also think of going to Southern Spain. I sound very strange, don’t I? I like to play in the snow, but then I don’t like the cold weather.
W:That’s why you find it difficult to decide, as you have enough reason to go to either place. Well, let’s come to this basic question then: Why do you take a holiday? To kill time, to have some enjoyment or what?
M:Well, I think I need a rest after several months’ hard work.
W:That’s easy then. If I were you, I would go to the seaside place in Spain. I wouldn’t go to a cold place for a rest. Think of the warm sunshine and the beach and sand. What a fine place for a rest! And think of going to sleep to the sound of the waves.
M:You’ve talked me into it. Thank you for helping me make the decision.
W:That’s OK.

M:So,do you know what’s playing now?
W:No, we’d better go check the listings.
M:I smell popcorn. It’s making me want some.
W:I think they do that on purpose.
M:Here are the listings. It looks like we have four choices to pick from.
W:Yeah, we’ve got a typical action flick Bowden’s Explosion, a comedy Hilarious Jackson, a romance My Broken Heart, and a drama The Mountain Man.
M:Oh, I love a good romantic story.
W:My friend saw My Broken Heart, and it did make her cry. But we always see romantic movies. You’re a man. Can’t we see a manly one for a change? I mean we go for some action films. Besides, Bowden’s Explosion is supposed to be excellent.
M:OK, I think The Mountain Man would be boring. Let’s see Bowden’s Explosion.
W:Let’s go get the tickets.
M:The charge is per head 25 yuan.
W:What time does it start? Do we have time to get some snacks?
M:It starts at 5:25 in Theatre 7. We have plenty of time.
