1.Ted: Oh, I'm really sorry. Are you OK?

Ana: I'm fine. But I'm not very good at this.

Ted: Neither am I. Say, are you from South America?

Ana: Yes, I am originally. I was born in Argentina.

Ted: Did you grow up there?

Ana: Yes, I did, but my family moved here eight years ago when I was in high school.

Ted: And where did you learn the rollerblade?

Ana: Here in the park. This is only my second time.

Ted: Well, it's my first time. Can you give me some lessons?

Ana: Sure. Just follow me.

Ted: By the way, my name is Ted.

Ana: And I'm Ana. Nice to meet you.

2.Ted: Hey, hey! That was fun. Thank you for the lesson!

Ana: No problem. So, tell me a little about yourself. What do you do? Ted: I work in a travel agency.

Ana: Really! What do you do there?

Ted: I'm in charge of their computers.

Ana: Oh, so you're a computer specialist.

Ted: Well, sort of. Yeah, I guess so.

Ana: That's great. Then maybe you can give me some help with a computer course I'm taking.

Ted: Oh, sure...But only if you promise to give me some more rollerblading lessons.

Ana: It's a deal!

1.Interviewer: Where are you from originally, Yu Hong?

Yu Hong: I'm from China...from near Shanghai.

Interviewer: And when did you move here?

Yu Hong: I came here after I graduated from college. That was in 1992. Interviewer: And what do you do now?

Yu Hong: I'm a transportation engineer.

Interviewer: I see. So you 're an immigrant to the United States?

Yu Hong: Yes, that's right.

Interviewer: What are some of the difficulties of being an immigrant in the U.S.?

Yu Hong: Oh, That's not an easy question to answer. There are so many things really. I guess one of the biggest difficulties is that I don't have any relatives here. I mean, I have a lot of friends, but that's not the same thing. In China, on the holidays or the weekend, we visit relatives. It isn't the same here.

Interviewer: And what do you miss the most from home?

Yu Hong: Oh, that's easy, my mom's soup! She makes great soup. I really miss my mother's cooking.

1.A: Hey! Are these pictures of you when you were a kid?

B: Yeah! That’s me in front of my uncle’s beach house. When I was a kid, we used to spend two weeks there every summer.

A: Wow, I bet that was fun!

B: Yeah. We always had a great time. Every day we used to get up early and walk along the beach. I have a great shell collection. In fact, I think it’s still up in the attic!

A: Hey, I used to collect shells, too, when I was a kid. But my parents threw them out!

2.A: You know what I remember most about growing up?

B: What?

A: Visiting my grandparent’s house…you know, on holidays and stuff. They lived way out in the country, and my granddad had a horse named Blackie. He taught me how to ride. I just love that horse-and she loved me, too! I used to really enjoy spending time at my grandparent’s house. And every time I came back, Blackie remembered me.

B: Ah, memories!

1.A: Why is there never a bus when you want one?

B: Good question. There aren’t enough buses on this route.

A: Sometimes I feel like writing a letter to the paper.

B: Good idea. You should say that we need more subway lines, too.

A: Yeah. There should be more public transportation in general.

B: And fewer cars! There’s too much traffic.

A: Say, is that our bus coming?

B: Yes, it is. But look. It’s full!

A: Oh, no! Let’s go and get a cup of coffee. We can talk about this letter I’m going to write.

2.A: So you are really going to write a letter to the paper?

B: Sure. I’m going to say something about the buses. They’re too old. We need more modern buses…nice air-conditioned ones.

B: And they need to put more buses on the road.

A: Right. And there are too many cars downtown, and there isn’t enough parking.

B: That’s for sure. It’s impossible to find a parking space downtown these days.

A: I think they should ban private cars downtown between nine and five. B: Oh, you mean they shouldn’t allow any cars except taxis and buses during the regular workday. Hmm…that sounds like a really good idea.

1.Quite a number of things have been done to help solve traffic problems in Singapore. For example, motorists must buy a special pass if they want to drive into the downtown business district. They can go into the business

district only if they have the pass displayed on their windshield.

Another thing Singapore has done is to make it more difficult to buy cars. People have to apply for a certificate if they want to buy a car. And the number of certificates is limited. Not everyone can get one.

There is also a high tax on cars, so it costs three or four times as much to buy a car in Singapore as it does in, say, the United States or Canada.
