A: Oh, I’m sure we can change the color if we want to.

3.A: Creative Rentals. Good morning.

B: Hello. I’m calling about the apartment you have for rent.

A: Yes. What can I tell you about it?

B: Where is it, exactly?

A: It’s on King Street, just off the freeway.

B: Oh, near the freeway. Can you hear the traffic?

A: Yes, I’m afraid you do hear some. But the apartment has lots of space. It has three bedrooms and a very large living room

B: I see. And is it in a new building?

A: Well, the building is about fifty years old.

B: Uh-huh. Well, I’ll think about it.

A: OK. Thanks for calling.

B: Thank you. Bye

1.A: Hello？

B: Hello. Is the apartment you’re advertising still available?

A: Yes, it is.

B: Can you tell me a little about it?

A: Well, it’s a perfect apartment for one person. It’s one room with a kitchen at one end.

B: I see. And is it far away from the subway?

A: There’s a subway station just down the street. Actually, the apartment is located right downtown, so you step out of the building and there are stores and restaurants everywhere. But it’s on a high floor, so you don’t hear any street or traffic noise.

B: It sounds like just the kind of place I’m looking for. I’d like to come see it, please.

A: Sure. Let me give you the address.

2.A:Town and city rentals.How can I help you?

B:Hi! Um,Is that apartment you advertised still available?

A:Yes, it is.

B:Oh, good. Um, listen,I,I can’t pay too much. So the low prise you asking is…is really good for me.

A:Great.

B;And how big is it?

A:It’s two rooms plus the kichen and bathroom.

B:Well, is it a safe place to live?

A:Well,I can tell you I’ve lived here for five years and I never heard about anybody having a problem.

B:Oh, that’s good. Uh, let see, oh yeah, does the apartment have a lot of windows?

A:Windows, yes, there are plenty of windows, but unfortunately,there is’n much light really. See, there’s another building right next to ours.

B:Oh,that’s OK. I’m never around in the day anyway. Do you think it’s alright if I come and look at it?

A:Anytime.When you wanna see it.

1.A: So where are you working now, Terry?

B: Oh, I’m still at the bank. I don’t like it, though.

A: That’s too bad. Why not?

B: Well, it’s boring, and it doesn’t pay very well.

A: I know what you mean. I don’t like my job either. I wish I could find a better job.

B: Actually, I don’t want to work at all anymore. I wish I had a lot of money so I could retire now.

A: Hmm, how old are you, Terry?

B: Uh, twenty-six.

2.A: So how are things going with you and Susie, Terry?

B: Oh, you didn’t know? She and I broke up a couple of months ago. We decided we needed a break from each other for a while. But I miss her a lot.

I wish we could get back together again.

A: I’m sure you will.

B: I really hope so. So what kind of job would you like to look for?

A: I’m not sure, but I’d love something that would involve travel. And I’d really like to move to another city. I’m sick of this place. I need to live somewhere more exciting.

B: I know what you mean. It sure can get boring around here at times.

1. A: Ugh! I feel awful. I really have to stop smoking.

B: So why don't you quit?

A: Well, if I quit, I might gain weight!

B: A lot of people do, but...

A: And if I gain weight, I won't be able to fit into any of clothes!

B: Well, you can always go on a diet.

A: Oh, no. I'm terrible at losing weight on diets. So if my clothes don't fit, I'll have to buy new ones. I'll have to get a part-time job, and...

B: Listen, it is hard to quit, but it's not that hard. Do you want to know how I did it?

2.A: Well, giving up smoking isn't really as hard as you think. I managed to do it, so it can't be that difficult. You should try a nicotine gum. You chew it just like regular chewing gum, and you don't feel like smoking.

B: Well, I guess it's worth a try.

3.Yeah, I really need a change. I’ve been doing the same things for over five years now, and I’m just not learning anything new. It’s the same routine every day, and I am really sick of sitting in front of a computer. I think I need to try something totally different. I want to be in a profession that involves meeting people.

4.I really need to join a club or sports team to give me something to do on weekends. I get really bored on the weekends, and if I joined a club. I’d probably get to meet people and make new friends.

5.Gosh, I really have to go on a diet. I’ve gained ten pounds since last year, and everyone tells me I look fat. And if I don’t lose weight now, I won’t be able to get into any of my summer clothes.

A: Oh, they’re delicious! I had them last time. Like to try some?

B: No, thanks. They sound strange.

C: Have you decided on an appetizer yet?

A: Yes. I’ll have the snails, please.

C: And you, sir?

B: I think I’ll have the fried brains.

A: Fried brains? Now that really sound strange!

2.A: Oh, good. Here comes the waitress now!

C: Here are your snails, madam. And for you, sir…the fried brains.

B: Thank you.

A: Mmm, these snails are delicious! How are the brains?

B: Well, I think they’re…yuck! Oh, sorry, I guess brains are pretty strange after all. Um, I think I’m going to order something else, if you don’t mind. A: Oh, sure. Go ahead.

B: Miss! Excuse me, miss!

C: Yes?

B: Uh, I really don’t care for this appetizer. Could you …… 此处隐藏：5471字，全部文档内容请下载后查看。喜欢就下载吧 ……
