#Person1#: Your resume mentioned that you had been the surveyor, which was a concurrent job, of a certain market survey company. What was your main work content?

#Person1#: Hi, Lucy, you are very popular with people around you, what are your tricks?

#Person1#: Sharing knowledge can be very settled and some second stances. People may think you are telling them how to do their work. If they take it personally, they feel angry at you and even become reluctant to support you at work.
#Person2#: That is true. Some people will misunderstand your intention and lets you do it in the long threatening way. For example, it is not sensible at all to arguing with the others or correcting someone in front of other people.

#Person1#: You are quite right. Thank you for sharing your experience with me. I learned a lot.
#Person2#: You're welcome. | Lucy thinks she is very popular because she likes sharing her experience and knowledge with people around. Lucy reminds #Person1# to show friendliness and willingness to share than to show off. |

#Person1#: Hi, Mr. Zhang. What's wrong? You don't look so happy. How was your date?
#Person2#: I was turned down again. It's frustrating. I guess you'Ve got to teach me some skills.
#Person1#: Me? I'm even less experienced than you are.
#Person2#: At least you know what American women generally like in a man.
#Person1#: Believe it or not, I guess American women like a man in good shape, which Chinese women may not care about so much. That's my honest opinion. I know you have been trying very hard.

You won't lose anything by doing that. | Mr. Zhang was turned down again and asks #Person1# to teach some skills. #Person1# thinks American women like a man in good shape and suggests Mr. Zhang try to exercise. |
animal: A fox. Friendly of course. Have any spare scraps?

petitioner: Certainly, every day of breath that is granted is a blessing. Though sometimes the weight put onto us does become heavy I suppose it has its purpose.
parishioner: Have you been reading the word of the Lord as the Bishop preaches? Though I find the words difficult, and my pace with letters to be slow, they are of utmost comfort to me. Pray tell, what passage has brought you the most comfort in your time of trials?
petitioner: Unfortunately I am not well off myself and have always spent my days working. I have never learned to read.
parishioner: Ah, there is no shame in that. I myself did not possess the knowledge of letters, nor that of their meaning. But when the Bishops speaks, he speaks the words of the Lord, and they are contained within that book. One of your neighbours can point you to the appropriate passage as he speaks. At first the symbols will make little sense, but with time and faith the words - and the will, of the Lord will become clear.
