John is in prison now . He was copped outstealing .? |
I just cann't believe my ears !? |
I hope so . I'm looking for some material for a paper I'm writing , and I'm not quite sure where to look .? |
I'll certainly try to help you.What topic is your paper on? |
My paper is on the influence of television on children .? |
There are several possible sources you might use for that topic . I suggest you use the computer and the computer will give you a list of every scientific journal that talks about children and television .? |
Thank you for you help .? |
Hey , Ted . What are you up to this Friday? |
Well , I have the day off from work .? |
That ’ s great ! Do you have any plans? |
Well , I ’ Ve been working so hard lately , so I ’ ll probably just take it easy .? |
Yeah , I ’ ll probably just stay in and relax . Maybe watch a few movies .? |
You honestly believe the world ’ s improving every year? |
Yes , I do . I think that science is making us wiser . What do you think? |
I don ’ t think you ’ re right there .? |
I believe industry is making us wealthier .? |
I don ’ t believe that .? |
And in my opinion , medicine is making us healthier .? |
I agree with you in the sense . But we ’ re all more miserable than ever , aren ’ t we? |
I don ’ t agree with you . I maintain that we ’ re healthier , wealthier and wiser than we were a hundred years ago .? |
That ’ s your opinion not mine .? |
What do you plan to do for your birthday? |
I want to have a picnic with my friends , Mum .? |
How about a party at home? |
That way we can get together and celebrate it .? |
OK , Mum . I'll invite my friends home .? |
How may I help you? |
I would like to return this book .? |
Is that all you need? |
I also want to check out this video .? |
Is that all you would like to check out? |
That ’ s all I need .? |
Do you have your library card? |
Make sure to take proper care of this video .? |
That won ’ t be a problem .? |
If you damage the video , you will be fined .? |
I won ’ t damage it .? |
What's the matter with you then? |
You look miserable .? |
What do you mean by us .? |
Well , you always say you're busy .? |
And you often go back to live with your parents and leave our son in the room by himself .? |
I ... I ... I miss my parents , also they miss me .? |
Oh I remember , I cut terrible calls , and you didn't say anything about it .? |
You mean I am groaned a few words? |
Totally not . Perhaps it's about our marriage .? |
Hi , Mary . You look pale today . What's the matter with you? |
I think I've caught a cold . Now I'm aching all over .? |
You'd better take some medicine and have a good rest . I hope you'll be yourself pretty soon .? |
Thank you . I suppose I should go to see a doctor .? |
I feel like going for a drink , it's been a long day .? |
Great idea ! Peter , I could use the drink .? |
How about the new bar across road? |
Sounds good . The food there is fantastic , too .? |
I agree , I had lunch there last week .? |
excellent ! That sounds like a plan .? |
Could you tell me the right time , please? |
Well . My watch says five past two . But it ’ s no use rely on it because it has been gaining and losing these last a few days .? |
You have to go and fix it .? |
does your family have a record of your ancestors? |
sure . My mom has been working on our family tree for years . She ’ s always updating it .? |
do you have a copy of your family tree in your house? |
I ’ d love to see it .? |
I can show it to you now , if you like . I think it goes back about 8 generations so far .? |
that ’ s amazing . Do you have a large extended family? |
I ’ Ve got 30 cousins on my mom ’ s side and 10 cousins on my dad ’ s side .? |
are you very close to your first-cousins? |
the ones that are my age are close relatives . Now that I ’ m older , I don ’ t spend as much time with them as I used to , so I don ’ t know my younger cousins as well as the older ones .? |
I see . who ’ s the head of your household? |
it ’ s definitely my mother . And , her mother is definitely the matriarch of the bigger family .? |
that ’ s interesting . What does your grandfather think of your step-mother? |
at first , she was quite critical of her , but now that they ’ Ve been married for a few years , she ’ s starting to accept the fact that my father divorced my mother .? |
that ’ s pretty much how you feel about your step-mother . Like grandmother , like grandson .? |
Hi , Mr . Wang . Do you feel like going boating with me? |
Sounds interesting , I haven't gone boating for some time now , and what time? |
How about tomorrow afternoon? |
Sure . Where shall I meet you? |
At the gate of the park .? |
Great . I look forward to meeting you .? |
I hear that you've been to the Saikei Ski Resort for the weekend . Did you enjoy it? |
Yes , it's so exciting , though I had the most falls in our skiing team .? |
Isn't there any coach to teach you how to ski? |
Of course there is . The top-level coaches there are from the State Sports General Administration .? |
Could you move smoothly? |
Yes.My face even ached in the icy wind .? |
What happened afterwards? |
I was skiing on and on excitedly until I realized one thing-I could not stop ! You can just imagine how terrified I was .? |
You look pale recently .? |
Yeah . I have got much pressure in the company . I have tobe wrapped upon my work .? |
Take good care of yourself .? |
Thank you . I will .? |
