[ "When is Canada Day?", "July first.", "How do you celebrate it?", "Perhaps there will be a parade. Sometimes we go to the beach. In the evening, there will probably be a fireworks display." ]
[ "Jane, the new swimming pool is open at the student center. Let's go experience it!", "I'd like to, Tom, but I have a paper due on Friday and I haven't even started it yet.", "Just an hour!", "I do need the exercise, but I just can't spare the time.", "OK, how about dinner at the Grill? You have to eat something and it's right by the library. I'll go over there with you after dinner and you can do your research while I study for my tomorrow's test." ]
[ "Doug, can I talk with you for a moment?", "What can I do for you, Susan?", "I'm concerned about the meeting we're having." ]

[ "The office door was locked when I came back yesterday. I left something important in my office. Why didn't you answer my phone call afterwards?", "Maybe it was too noisy to hear it. I thought you would have the key on you." ]

I'm the European customer service manager.", "So, are you in charge of the department?", "No, I report to the customer service manager David. He sits there.", "Ah, the boss is here.", "Yes, and is your boss here?", "No. She isn't on the training course fortunately. So, Ella, you aren't the department manager, but do you have a team in the department?", "Yeah, there are many teams in the department. I manage a small team of assistance. 5 people were responsible for customers in Europe and our other teams deal with other regions, Asia, North America and so on.", "And do you have direct contact with customers? Do you speak to them?", "Oh yes, the difficult ones usually. I deal with problems most of the time." ]
[ "Halloween is coming. Are you planning to dress up this year?", "I wasn't going to. Why do they have this holiday anyway? I don't understand it. People just dress up in scary costumes and eat candy all night.", "That's not really all it's about. Many people dressed like their favorite cartoon character or a famous person. They go to Halloween parties and play games. Sometimes they play funny tricks on each other.", "That doesn't sound so bad. Why was Halloween started in the first place?", "It comes from an old holiday when People honor their dead relatives. Many people in other countries still celebrated that way.", "That sounds better than dressing up like a dead person.", "Then I can't wait until you see my costume.

[ "So how are you getting along with Jane's dog?", "Well, she never comes when I call her. She spills her food and she bites my shoes. I can't wait till Jane gets back." ]

Me?", "Yes, you.", "Why me?", "You need some exercise. Mountain climbing is one of the best ways to build your strength and balance.", "Wait a minute, are you talking about hiking or mountain climbing?", "Mountain climbing, the tougher one.", "I never did that before. Do I need any training before I go?", "Yes. You better take some instructional courses at the climbing gym.", "You can't be serious.", "I'll take you to my gym tomorrow.", "Can I say no?", "Don't worry so much. I'll also find you a partner.", "Partner? What for?", "You need a partner to manage the climbing rope for you.", "My God.", "When you first start, you'll get tired quickly and suffers slightly sore forearms the day after, but later on, you'll get accustomed.", "I'm not going. It's not my type of workout. I'd rather stay at home and serve on the Internet. Thank you all the same." ]

[ "Fasten your seatbelt Sir.", "Of course. I didn't realize that we're going to Lancel soon." ]
[ "What are you going to do after you leave school?", "I plan to go to university, but first I want to take a year off to get some work experience abroad.", "Great. A trip abroad can help you learn more about the world and introduce you to new people and experiences. But it will cost a fortune to go abroad.", "So, at the moment I'm working at a local supermarket and I'm going to save all my money. Then I'd like to travel to somewhere like Australia if I can afford it." ]

There is a lot of space and each house has got 3 bedrooms and a separate shower room.", "Hmm...", "And there is a garden at the back. John, will you put down your book? Aren't you interested?", "Not especially.", "But why I thought you wanted to move?", "You are the one who wants to move.", "But you said the last time your brother stayed. It is impossible to live without an extra bedroom.", "I didn't say that. I like this flat. I can walk to work.", "You could still walk to work if we move.", "It is farther away and it is being far more noisy near the Sports Center.", "But it is not exactly quiet living on this main road. It is simply that we need more space. John, will you at least come and have a look at the new houses?", "Very well then. But do not expect to change my mind." ]
[ "We can't find David. Where is he? The train is about to leave.", "Don't worry. Maybe he is buying some food at the shop on the platform." ]

I'm going to take a business class over the summer and I'm going to work part time at my uncle's company to get some experience.", "Why don't you just relax?", "I really want to be successful in the future. Don't you ever think about your future?", "Sure, I do. I think about all the great places I'm going to travel to after I graduate. When I'm done with all my adventures, then I'll start thinking about getting a serious job." ]

[ "OK, Let me just have a look at the information here. You've been with a company for 6 years.", "That's right.", "Do you feel the same way as you did 6 years ago?", "Well, not really. I used to be more enthusiastic. Maybe it's because I'm older now.", "Well. You're only 28. That's not exactly old. What else has changed?", "I work longer hours now. I go home after 7 nearly every day, but I earn much more than before.", "I see. What about the company? Is it helping you to develop new skills?", "Yes, up to a point. I've done 2 management training courses in the last couple of years, so I think I'm ready for promotion now." ]
[ "Let's see, tidy the garage and clean up the yard.", "The newspaper says it'll be sunny today. Probable heavy rain tomorrow. Well, that makes it easy. We work outside today and inside tomorrow. We can go to the supermarket this afternoon." ]
[ "Look, mom has left a note with housework for us to do while she and dad are away this weekend.", "Let's see. Tidy up the garage and clean up the backyard.", "She doesn't say which we should do first.", "Hey, we're not robots. We can make our own plan as long as everything gets done. Read the weather report in the newspaper.", "Em, sunny today, cloudy tonight, probably heavy rain tomorrow. Well, that makes it easy. We work outside today and inside tomorrow.", "Yep, let's get started. I want to go to the supermarket this afternoon." ]
[ "Welcome to the Hilton.", "I'd like to check in." ]
[ "Hey, we should watch the kids more carefully when there in the pool. Did you ever hear about secondary drowning?", "No, never heard of it. Is that like when you get water up your nose?", "Don't joke about it! I learned it from the Internet. Some children die each year because they fall into a pool or a lake, but they didn't drown right away. Someone pulled them out of the water and they seemed OK for the first day. But a lot of water got into their lungs, and the next day, they died.", "It happens very rarely. We have to let the kids have fun. We can't protect them too much." ]
[ "I can't believe that you failed your test. You studied for it all night long. How come you haven't gotten an A?", "When I got to the test, I was too exhausted. I couldn't keep my eyes open." ]
[ "I can't find my car key. I want to go for a drive.", "I'll help you look for it later. Right now, I need you to fix the shelf before I paint it." ]
[ "So Macey, how was your holiday?", "Oh, we loved it. Tom liked Germany best but France was my favorite.", "So, did Rachel finally go with you?", "No she wasn't able to. She was called away for a business trip to China.", "That's a pity. So where exactly did you go and visit?", "Well, we traveled all over. Italy, Spain and Holland. We even bathed in a Swiss Lake.", "You did! Really?" ]
[ "How do you learn that? Is that something that your mother would teach you?", "There is some classes for both flower arrangement and tea ceremony. So you need to go to a school, yes, and learn from your teacher." ]

Oh, it was founded in December eighteen seventy-seven by Stilson Hutchens.", "Which newspaper is elder, the New York Times or the Washington Post?", "The New York Times. It was founded in September eighteen fifty-one by Henry Raymond and George Jones.", "How about the Los Angeles Times?", "It was first published in December eighteen eighty-one, under the direction of Nathan Cole Junior and Thomas Guardineer." ]
[ "Mr. Smith, may I ask you a question?", "Yes, go ahead, please.", "For quite a long time, I've not been sure of two phrases. I'm sorry and excuse me. It seems that they have exactly the same meaning when we put them into Chinese. Could you tell me how to use them correctly?", "Alright. In fact, there are a lot of differences between the two. I'd better show you some examples. Suppose you are chatting with someone, if you'll use a phrase as a polite way of indicating that you are about to leave or that you are about to stop it.", "I am sorry?", "No, we say, excuse me or excuse me, please. And excuse me is also used when we are going to interrupt someone who is speaking or......", "Excuse me, Mr. Smith.", "Very good, Miss Yang. What are you going to say?", "If we knock into somebody by chance, when pushing our way out, we should then say sorry or I'm so sorry?", "You learn so fast." ]
[ "What's the matter?", "I've been having a lot of headaches recently.", "How long have they been bothering you?", "Since this past Monday. I hadn't slept well the night before and thought that was the reason, so I went to work as usual.", "Did you take any medicine?", "Not on Monday, but I did take some on the following day. The pain stopped for about half a day and then came back that night. So I decided to come and see you." ]
[ "We're going to listen to a lecture about environmental protection.", "Really? I thought we'd go to see an exhibition." ]
[ "I like this table, it looks very strong. Do you think it will look good in your new house?", "I don't think so. My new house is by the beach. I want something that looks like it belongs by the beach." ]
[ "Have a cup of coffee?", "No, thanks, not before lunch.", "Please have one. It's just cooked.", "I honestly don't feel like one at the moment, thanks." ]
[ "I haven't seen Zhang these days.", "He's moved out. He's now living in a quieter place.", "Is it far from the school?", "Yes, but he said it's worth the trouble." ]
[ "Are you still afraid of being alone now, Tony?", "No, I'm not. But I'm afraid of speaking in front of others now." ]
[ "This way, please the table in the corner is free.", "Thanks. Please give me a glass of water first. I will wait for my friend for a while." ]

[ "Have you met the new apartment manager?", "Yeah. I met him last week. I'm not sure I like him. He's hard to predict. Sometimes, he's pretty cheerful and talkative and the next day, he doesn't even say hello." ]
[ "Did the children enjoy the holiday camp or were they all homesick?", "Well, I must admit some of the younger kids were a little bit unhappy, because they've never been away on their own before and didn't know some of the other kids. But soon they recovered. By the last day, they didn't want to go home because they were having such a great time.", "What sort of things did you do with them?", "Well, there were some trips, including a visit to Hardwick Castle. That was what we did on the first day. I think they were expecting it to be rather boring, especially when they heard they were having a guided tour. But they were wrong. The guide was very interesting. He told them some interesting stories and really made the history of the castle come alive.", "I can imagine. What sort of sports activities did they do?", "Ceiling, climbing, horse-riding and the like. And on the last day, we had a barbecue, which was their favorite. The kids enjoyed it very much. They all promised to come and get together again next year." ]

Chinatown, Broadway, Central Park, the Natural History Museum.", "That's great. Where should we go first, Broadway? I've been dreaming of watching a musical there.", "It's the best to go there in the evening. How about going to Central Park first?", "OK. What's there to see?", "Lots of trees, walking paths, statues and areas for performances, you can relax in a wonderful nature, setting in the middle of a busy city. The Natural History Museum is located on its west side.", "Many famous people mentioned to Central Park in their books. It must be a place worth visiting.", "It certainly is.", "Where shall we go for dinner? A restaurant in Chinatown?", "We can go there next time. I have a classmate living in Harlem and he is very interested in Chinese culture and wants to see you. We'll have dinner there, if you don't mind.", "No, I don't, it will be nice to meet someone who loves Chinese culture. I want to learn more about Harlem, its food and music." ]
[ "It's freezing cold out here, Joan! You said would be just a little chilly.", "Yes, I know, George. We should walk home faster to keep warm.", "Awe, and what is that?", "Oh, just a bit of thunder. Nothing to worry about.", "Just a bit of thunder? Nothing to worry about? Now it's pouring and I'm getting cold and wet.", "Emm, yeah, we should probably run now." ]
[ "Does this bus really go to the mall?", "It goes all the way there.", "Are you sure?", "I know it does. I take this bus a lot.", "How long does the bus take to get there?", "The bus ride is only 30 minutes or so." ]
[ "Good morning, I'd like to buy a cake.", "No problem sir, we have many cakes here, what size would you like?", "Well, it's for my coworker's birthday, there are 14 people in the office.", "Well, this cake feeds 12 people and this one behind it feeds 20.", "I'll take the bigger one, it's better to have too much than not enough.", "Sounds good, do you want it delivered?", "Yes.

[ "I bought these trousers here on Wednesday. When I tried them on at home, I found them too small for me. Can I return them and get my money back?", "I'm sorry. You can't because you bought them at a sale price. However, you can exchange them for a bigger size.", "I have already looked around here, but I can't find the proper size for me. I have to wear them at my co-worker's house warming party this Saturday." ]
[ "What are you good at, Susan? For example, sports, music, art?", "I like music a lot and I can play some musical instruments, such as piano, Erhu, guitar, especially violin." ]
[ "Excuse me, do you know when the train will arrive?", "I'm sorry, the train is behind schedule." ]
[ "Hey Mike, good to have you back. You look exhausted.", "Hi, Mary. Yeah. I'm totally beat. I can barely keep my eyes open.", "Was it a rough trip?", "Well, it was actually pretty productive. But all the flying really got to me.", "Oh, jet lag.", "Yep. I flew from Beijing to Boston for a meeting and then got on a plane to go to the trade fair in Frankfurt. Then back to Beijing before catching a train back here to Shanghai.", "Wow, that's a lot of traveling. No wonder you're exhausted.", "The worst thing was adjusting to the time zones. It's so hard to get used to the difference.", "Yeah, it's hard. You know jet lag only hits if you travel east west or west east. You could fly from Germany to Cape Town in South Africa and you wouldn't feel a thing." ]
[ "What happened here?", "A man lost control of his car and hit a girl on the bike.", "Was the girl hurt?", "Yes, but not seriously. She has been taken to the hospital." ]

Do you know what the main advantages of bikes are?", "They don't cost much?", "Yes, and they're not complicated.", "They're easy to use. Yeah?", "Not easy when you're going uphill. Let's say simple.", "OK. Yeah. They're cheap to run. They don't often breakdown. They're safe." ]
[ "Congratulations on your new job. I know you worked hard for it, cheers.", "Cheers, it has been a pleasure working with you all these years. I'll make sure to come back and visit next month.", "You'd better. Work won't be the same without you. So when do you start?", "I went in today to fill out some paperwork but I won't start until the following Monday.", "That's great, let me pay for your lunch. It's my turn anyway.", "No, it's alright. I owe you for everything you have done for me.", "Thanks, so I'll see you tomorrow then." ]
[ "Tomorrow is my birthday, I'd like you and Jane to come.", "Thank you and happy birthday. I'd like to go and celebrate, but that depends on when Jane can finish her homework." ]
[ "The meeting has been called off, Frank.", "But why didn't anyone tell me?", "We called you, but you didn't answer.", "Oh, I left my mobile phone at home." ]
[ "Professor Edward, could I have a talk with you about the oral presentation?", "OK. Was there something about the requirements you didn't understand?", "No. I just don't think I can do it.", "You don't think you'll be ready in time?", "I'm not here to ask for more time. In fact, it's because I'll get very nervous in front of people. It's a problem I've had since I was a child.", "I see. There has to be some way we can deal with it.", "I could write a paper instead. Some of my teachers in high school let me do that.", "But if I let you do that, I'd be opening myself up to the blame of unfair treatment. Well, would you be nervous if you gave the presentation in front of a video camera?", "You mean recorded with a camera and then show it to the class? It might work. Actually, that's a great idea. I could do it over and over again until I got it perfect. But the other students, won't they...", "Well, I'll have some explaining to do. I think they'll understand." ]
[ "The performance will be on at 7:00 PM on week days, 8:00 PM on Saturdays. And there's also an afternoon show at 3:00 PM on Sundays.", "Great. Let's get the tickets for Saturday." ]

[ "I read a report on the people who can use a foreign language, mainly English.", "Really? What's it about?", "It's mainly about the different attitudes people have. Towards the foreign language learning, about 27% of the people think of foreign language is a must in their daily life.", "I can't agree more. There are more and more People learning foreign languages.", "That's true. About 35% of the people are learning or willing to learn a foreign language.", "As far as I'm concerned, many People, especially students are forced to do so because of exams.", "Yes, that accounts for twenty one percent. There are also about 15% of the people who take foreign languages to be useless and they take no interest in them at all." ]
[ "Have you ever thought that artificial intelligence will take the place of doctors?", "No, impossible. But artificial intelligence can make doctors better.", "You mean computers will not treat patients, but they can help make right decisions?" ]
[ "I like tigers very much. They're my favorite animal. What's yours?", "You may not believe it, but I like rabbits best. They're so lovely." ]

[ "Have you read the whole book since noon today?", "Oh, I haven't read it straight through the way you'd read a novel. A few chapters were on the topic that interested me. So I just read those." ]
[ "There is a lecture in the hall this evening on French history. I thought you might be interested.", "Oh, that sounds great. I've been looking forward to a lecture like that.", "Don't forget to get there early or there won't be any seats left." ]
[ "Taking a train to Cheng du might be a little tiring, but sure it would save us more budgets.", "Oh, honey. You know how I hate to stay in those crowded smelly cars. Besides, flying would save us more time.", "OK, you're call sweetheart." ]

You had a holiday.", "Well, I stayed at home and looked after the baby.", "What? You took care of the baby? Whose baby?", "Oh, it was my sister's baby. She wanted to go shopping in the morning, so I stayed at home and did a lot of things.", "Oh?", "Yes, I mended my radio, washed the shirt and some socks and cleaned out the drawers of my desk.", "I don't call that a holiday.
