M: No, this is the first time.

W: I think you’ll find it quite convenient. The library, labs, sports center and other facilities are right on campus.

M: That’s true. The atmosphere here is different from the outside. But I guess living in town has its advantage too, like being close to the shopping center. Y ou know, our university is so far from downtown.

W: But the commuting to classes…I mean, you would have to get up so early to get to classes on time. And then going home would be so much time.

Task 3: Learning to speak English

Hello, how are you? When most people learn English as a second language, they learn formal English. Unfortunately, learning it like this tends to make you feel distant and bored. The truth is,

most people in English-speaking countries don’t speak to each other in such a formal way. They speak in a casual way to their friends and families. When speaking casually, people tend to use a lot of informal or colloquial words, and also shorten and connect their phrases. They say things like “Hey, what’s up?” or “Hey! Whatcha been dion’?” These expressions are both common and natural, and make you seem like a native speaker. Using them may make people more interested in talking to you. This type of English is more like what you will hear in movies and TV shows. Speaking this way makes native speakers feel more relaxed and you will sound like a friendly person who speaks English well. Y ou got that, buddy?

formal formally casual common native relaxed friendly
