W：I need to get into the city before seven o'clock，but I don't see how I'll make it with all the traffic on the bridge.
M：Why don't you take the train？It goes directly to the baseball park，so you won't be late.
Text 2
M：Good morning.Do you know why we can't use our parking lot today?
W：Yeah.They're painting lines for new parking spaces of our building.They'd better not make the spots too small.My husband drives a truck，and it still needs to fit!
Text 3
W：Did I tell you the great news?
M：No.What happened?
W：My boss named me “the employee of the month”！Apparently，I had the highest sales of women's jackets out of any worker in the store.
Text 4
M：I was wondering if you have a copy of The Sun Also Rises.I checked the shelves，but I couldn't find it.
W：Well，we do have a copy.If it's not on the shelves，someone must have borrowed it.Would you like me to reserve it？When it's returned，you can have it.
Text 5
W：Can you hand me my cell phone？It's on the desk.
M：Sure...Wait.Whose picture is this in your phone?
W：Uh­oh.That's my sister's boyfriend！I must have taken her phone by accident when we left her house.Ours look exactly alike!
Text 6
M：You know what I've noticed since I've been in the United States?
W：What?
M：A lot of people have balconies that they don't use.
W：I've never thought about that，but I guess it's because I've lived here my whole life.Do people use their balconies where you grew up?
M：Yeah，in Puerto Rico，if someone has a balcony，they use it.My sisters and I were always on ours.
W：You used to see smokers on balconies a lot.But now，it is illegal to smoke outside of most offices and apartment buildings.
M：Well，we should take advantage of the fresh air，then!
W：You know what？You're right.Instead of going out tonight，let's cook here and have dinner on the balcony.
Text 7
M：Which tests are required by American universities?
W：Most universities require the SAT.It's an exam designed to see if you're prepared for college.The idea is that if all students take the same test，then schools can compare them to each other.
M：If I get a low score，does that mean I can't go to college?
W：No.It means that you won't get into a place like Harvard or Stanford.They're very competitive and want students with high scores.But there are other colleges that value different factors.
M：Do foreign students take special tests?
W：Yes.Foreign students also have to take the TOEFL.It's a language test designed to see if you know enough English to succeed in an American school.
M：Are there classes to help prepare for these tests?
W：Of course.But they're expensive.They're not necessary if you're very motivated.You can buy test preparation books and study them yourself.
Text 8
W：You look great，Josh！Did you lose weight?
M：Yeah.Thanks!
W：Are you on some kind of diet?
M：Well，I've been eating between six and nine servings of vegetables each day.
W：That's a lot！Isn't that more than the government recommends?
M：It is.But those recommendations are just suggested minimums.
W：How do you fit that many vegetables into your diet?
M：It's not that hard.I try to eat two or three servings at every meal.For breakfast，I have an egg with tomatoes and mushrooms.Or，I mix a couple of vegetables with some mangoes or pineapples.
W：That sounds strange.
M：No，it's actually quite good.For lunch，I have a big salad with lettuce，carrots，and cucumbers.And then for dinner，I usually have some kind of meat，a small salad，and some cooked green vegetables.
W：It sounds difficult to follow.Have you given up junk food or anything else?
M：I haven't had to.When I eat that many vegetables every day，I don't really have time to eat much else.
Text 9
M：Hi，Mary.We haven't seen each other since we graduated.Where have you been?
W：I have been to Australia.Do you still live there?
M：Oh，no.We have just moved into the new house.
W：Really？Congratulations!
M：Thank you，and we want to buy a new television.
W：What kind of television do you want to buy?
M：A color TV，of course，but I'm not sure about the size.Maybe we should buy a bigger one.If we buy a small one，we might have to change it in a few years for a bigger one.What is your opinion?
W：In my opinion，I don't think it's necessary to buy a very big one.
M：Any reason?
W：Yes.As I know，your sitting room isn't big enough.If you put in a very big television，that will be bad for your eyes.
M：Mmm，that's quite true.I'll think about it.
W：You'd better make a quick decision because the price may go up soon.
Text 10
M：My office is at Beijing Capital International Airport.But I spend 60% of my time in the air.I teach air hostesses and help them with any problems.My hours are usually from 8：00 am to 4：00 pm，but sometimes I work from 1：00 pm to 9：00 pm.At work，the first thing I do is to check plane times on my computer and then I speak with some of the air hostesses.Sometimes I go on a long flight to check how air hostesses are doing.That's my favourite part of the job.But I like office work，too.Traveling can be hard work.When I get back from a long journey，all I can do is eat something and then go to bed.I don't earn much money，but I'm happy with the Hainan Airlines and want to stay there and continue to travel.
