M: Are you going anywhere for Christmas?
W: I thought about going to my sister's in New York. How about you?
M: I'll probably just stay at home.
Text2
M: I'm going to the beach this Sunday. Would you like to come?
W: Oh, Sunday's a bit of a problem. Some of my friends are coming for a dinner at my place. What about Saturday?
Text3
W:Mr. Baker, could I possibly use your phone? Ours doesn’t work. Judy is ill, and I want to call a doctor.
M:Sure. Come on in. Hope everything’s well with Judy.
Text4
W: Congratulations, John! I heard about your new job.
M: Thanks. It's nearly perfect for me. The working hours are convenient, and it's an easy walk from home. If only the pay
were half as good as everything else!
Text5
M: Kate, I'm going to a meeting tomorrow. Would you please help take my phone calls?
W:No problem, Jim. I'll take a message if anyone calls.

M: Excuse me. One ticket, please. Do you give students a discount?
W:We do, but the museum will close in twenty minutes. We stop selling tickets at 3:30. It's 3:40 now.
M: Could you possibly let me go in for a quick look? I can pay the full price.
W: I’m sorry, I can't. And it's not really worth it because you won't be able to see everything within twenty minutes. You
can come back tomorrow morning. The museum opens at nine o'clock.
M:Well, in that case, I’ll do what you say.

W: Hi, Tom. How are you?
M:Hi, Jane. I'm fine. Listen, I plan to go swimming in the sports center this weekend. But it's a long way, and I haven't
got my driver’s license yet. How about us going together in your car? I'll buy the tickets.
W: Well, it's great, but I’ve got homework to do.
M: Come on! It doesn’t matter that you go out for one afternoon.
W:Oh, I really can't. Although I finished my book report, the upcoming mid-term exam really makes me nervous. I don’t
think I’d enjoy an outing now. Sorry I can’t drive you.
M: Oh, don’t worry. I can find someone else. Good luck with your exam!
W: Thanks. See you!
M:Bye!

M: Hello. I'd like this guidebook, please. How much is it?
W: All things are free here.
M: Oh, thanks. I'll stay in the city for one week. Could you tell me what places I should visit?
W: Well, there are a lot. Are you interested in islands, such as Lantau?
M: Islands?
W:Yes. There are a lot of interesting things you can see — old villages and churches. And the scenery is beautiful. Take
this booklet. It tells you more.
M: Thank you very much. That’s a great suggestion.
W: You are welcome.

W:Dr. Green, congratulations on the success of your new book! We learned that it has been translated into 30 languages —
English, of course, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, and so on.
M: Thanks, Helen.
W: Well, could you tell us what this popular book is about?
M:It’s called In Praise of Slow. It's about how the world got stuck in fast-forward, and how more and more people
everywhere are slowing down. In other words, it’s about the rise of the Slow Movement.
W: What is the Slow Movement?
M:It is a revolution against the idea that faster is always better. When I say “slow”,I don’t mean doing everything
slowly. It’s about doing everything as well as possible, instead of as fast as possible. It’s about quality in everything
we do.
W: When and where was this “slow” idea born?
M:It was born in the early 1990s in Italy. It began as the Slow Food Movement,which centered on food. More recently, “slow
” has become popular worldwide.
W: Have we reached the point of trying to speed up something that cannot really be sped up?
M: Of course. The Internet connects us in wonderful ways, but it also leads us into trying to hurry up relationships. So
you find people online saying they have more than 4,000 friends. The very idea of friendship is not considered important.
And we may be losing the ability to make friends. In Britain, a study found that in the past ten years, the number of
children who say they have no best friend rose from under one in eight to nearly one in five!

Good morning, everyone. I'm pleased to be here to give a talk. We’re two brothers from Canada, and we’ve been living in
Thailand for eight years. We noticed that most English lessons here in schools focus only on reading and writing, so a lot
of people can’t understand and speak well in English. And we’d like to do something about it. Our idea is simple: we want
to teach people how to understand and speak English like a native speaker. Different from broadcast English programs, we
design special fun English programs based on the computer and use them to teach words and expressions we use in real life.
We talk in a casual style on a number of interesting topics, and we share personal stories from our real lives. Now, we
have over 200 units on our website. We make a new unit every week that you can listen to on your computer anytime you want.
Our materials are from English movies, TV shows, and real-life conversations. We hope people will use the materials to
practice every day. We are sure that your English will improve a lot.
