M: It’s Saturday!Text 2 W: Did you feed Frank today? M: Yes, I did. I also gave him a bath. W: Thank you, honey. Could you take him to the vet tomorrow? His appointment is at ten in the morning. Text 3 W: Have you heard? Our president is starting a new program. M: Oh, really? How would it benefit us? W: The program requires professors to take on students in their research projects.

M: Gosh, I’m finally here. I’m nearly worn out. My apartment is only on the second floor. W: Well, I wish my apartment were four floors lower, like yours. Text 6 W: Sorry about the wait. I’m Doctor Green. M: How do you do? W: Hi. I see that you’re experiencing some back pain. M: Yes, I am. My doctor’s away on vacation. He always gives me this to reduce my pain, but I’ve run out of my pills. I wonder if, uh, you might be able to give me some. W: You really should have a thorough checkup, but you’re the most polite patient I’ve seen all week, so I’ll break the rule for you.Text 7 M: Hello? W: Mr. Anderson? M: Yes? W: This is Temporary Jobs Agency. You called us several weeks ago about a job position. M: Uh-huh… W: We have a two-day job for you if you’re still available. It’s a fundraising party at Grand Hotel.

It’s just a block away from the Finance Center. M: Well, that certainly adds to its value. Is it in good shape?W: It was built in the 90s, but we’ve just had it redecorated. M: You also need to consider the prices of other flats in the neighbourhood. W: Sure, sure. M: Can you decide on the offer price now? W: Um…probably not. I’d better talk with my husband first. Thanks for the information, though. I’ll contact you when we have decided.Text 9 M: Oh, I hope Alexander likes this. It’s a bit of risk serving fish and shrimps to a guest who comes to visit us for the first time. Maybe I should also prepare a steak. W: Yeah. It’s not a bad idea. Alexander is the new director of my department, and I don’t know much about his preference. He came from another department of the company early this year. M: I’ve never met him before, but I’ve heard a lot about him from you in the past few days. It seems that he’s a very good boss, with rich business experience.W: Absolutely. He’s the one who comes to save the department. M: Really? Why do you say so? W: Well, you know, last year, when the economy was not good, our profit was far from satisfying. The company even thought about closing down this department. M: So, what about the situation this year? W: Alexander introduced a brand new system for sales and management, and it’s quite effective and efficient. The profit has even doubled in the last month. M: Wow, that’s fantastic! I cannot wait to meet him for dinner.Text 10 The coming next program is “One-Man Show” by David Mellor. The guy David Mellor needs no introduction.

On the board, eyes, nose, mouth, and ears are all in their places, but each of them possesses easily recognized characteristics. Take eyes, for example. When they’re open, what you can see are two very narrow lines. And nose? A little bit raised and shaped like a badminton bat. And his mouth is, well, let me say this way: each corner could reach the ear. As the saying goes, “Smile from ear to ear” or “Wear a big smile.” But our guy never smiles. Actually, he doesn’t know how to smile, not to say laugh. His full and very black moustache covers his upper lip. Whenever he wants to start a speech, he bites his lips for a while. During his talk, he clears his throat from time to time. Although he pretends to be gentle, he may make you feel very tense and worried. Before I invite him onto the stage, one thing I should warn you of: listen to his talk; don’t watch his face or his show. Ladies and gentlemen, now Mr. David Mellor… 。
