neutral No, I can't see that happening. I know you're a good cook and nothing like that would ever happen. neutral It's not just that. She also criticizes how we raise the kids. neutral My mother-in-law used to do the same thing to us. If it wasn't disciplining them enough, then we were disciplining them too much. She also complained about the food we fed them, the schools we sent them too, and everything else under the sun. neutral You said she used to? How did you stop her? neutral We basically sat her down and told her how we felt about her constant criticizing, and how we welcomed her advice but hoped she'd let us do our things. She understood, and now everything is a lot more peaceful. happiness

Sounds pretty easy, actually!

Good! disgust But my wife wants every little decision we make in our

neutral How do you do, Prof.Smith. happiness How do you do, Ms. Yang.You speak very good English. happiness Thank you. I begin to like English even when I was a child. neutral Where did you learn it? neutral At school, in China.This is my first time to be out of my own country. surprise

happiness That ’ s great! Do you have any plans? neutral Well, I ’ Ve been working so hard lately, so I ’ ll probably just take it easy. happiness Sounds nice. neutral Yeah, I ’ ll probably just stay in and relax. Maybe watch a few movies. neutral Can I stop by? neutral

I miss my parents, also they miss me. neutral Oh I remember, I cut terrible calls, and you didn't say anything about it. neutral You mean I am groaned a few words? neutral

Totally different. Anyway we have agreed on these rules so that we can keep everything under control,

neutral are you very close to your first-cousins? neutral the ones that are my age are close relatives.

And, her mother is definitely the matriarch of the bigger family. neutral that ’ s interesting. What does your grandfather think of your step-mother? neutral

he loves all of his children.

happiness How about tomorrow afternoon? happiness Sure. Where shall I meet you? happiness At the gate of the park. happiness Great. I look forward to meeting you. happiness See you then. happiness

neutral Isn't there any coach to teach you how to ski? neutral Of course there is. The top-level coaches there are from the State Sports General Administration. neutral Could you move smoothly? neutral Yes.My face even ached in the icy wind. neutral What happened afterwards? neutral

I was told that my feet couldn ’ t stop when trying to turn. Then he gave me some

I was terrified at all, so my eyes turned blue. And after that everything seems super

neutral Hey, Maggy, Did you hear about David? neutral About David? No, I didn ’ t hear anything. neutral You know, about David and his new boss. neutral Sorry, I don ’ t quite follow you. neutral Well, I heard David has been fired. neutral

That is so terrible. What happened?

That can't be true! Can it? sadness Oh, yes it

neutral maybe if I sold my car now, I wouldn't be so tempted to use it. neutral you could try. It would save you a lot of money. neutral that's true. Every month, I spend hundreds of dollars on gas, insurance, and repairs. neutral if you got to class by riding a bicycle every day instead of driving, you will get lots of exercise, too! neutral I could stand to lose a few pounds. Having a car has made me lazy. I never end up walking anywhere! neutral

how much does your car cost? You can find one for almost the same price as what our company

what else? How much do we spent for parking, each year. That really add up!

neutral You are going to take courses? neutral Yes. I am going to take some university courses there. neutral Sounds hard. neutral Yes, but I think it's probably for the best. neutral Won ’ t you get lonely? neutral

Not very much. There are a large number of international students in that school. So, I will

Hey, my friend is coming along with me! We will have a lot of things in

neutral I do.We haven't watered them for quite a few days. neutral Please look at the sky.Don't you see the dark clouds? It's going to rain soon. happiness Good.So we don't have to work.How nice! neutral But I don't think it's so nice. neutral Why? neutral

Well, now there is no one left here.

The weather is miserable recently. disgust What bad luck! This will

neutral On, darn. The grocery store is closed. neutral Yeah, this one closes at ten. We could drive to the 24 - hour store on sixth. neutral Alright. We are out of everything. neutral I wish the store close to us was open 24 - house a day. neutral I know, our schedules are so weird. Sometimes, the little corner store is the only thing within walking distance that ’ s open when we get home. neutral

happiness It seems as if it always takes about twenty minutes for them to make their food ready.

happiness You can buy something in the supermarket. There is also an E-commerce site called

neutral Good. I will have hot chocolate. neutral A stop! Wait for the lights to turn green. neutral When crossing the road you must always pay attention to what's around you. neutral Sorry. How far is the museum? neutral I am not sure. We will ask for directions in the coffee shop. neutral

What time are we supposed at home?

You look so excited. Is it your first trip abroad, too?

happiness How about going to the cinema tonight? happiness That's great. What's on tonight? neutral I am not sure about the name of the film, but I know it's a romantic one. neutral Romantic? I am afraid I like thrillers better. neutral Don't you think it's too bloody? neutral

No, sometimes when seeing something dangerous or horrible happen in movies, my heart starts to go

Not at all. It gives me an adrenaline rush and makes my pulse go

neutral Yeah! Why not? They are trendy and look great! I want to get a dragon on my arm or maybe a tiger on my back. neutral Yeah but, it is something that you will have forever! They use indelible ink that can only be removed with laser treatment. On top of all that, I have heard it hurts a lot! surprise Really? neutral Of course! They use this machine with a needle that pokes your skin and inserts the ink. neutral Oh, I didn ’ t know that! I thought they just paint it on your skin or something. neutral

It seems like people who do body piercing often go into an alopecial condition where their hair

You don't even understand how big a dragon looks! It would cover half my body.

neutral I agree. Are there any commercials on the TV? neutral Of course. Because the TV stations need to make money from commercials between the programs. neutral That makes a lot of sense. Does the TV work well? neutral Not always. It depends on the transmission of the satellite signals. neutral I got it. Do you pay for the programs? neutral

No, we receive all free and clear.

No. They're free. The ads give enough income. surprise W

disgust Oh, no! disgust How dreadful! neutral Look at the view from the window. disgust Oh, dear. That ’ s terrible. Not at all what I expected. disgust It ’ s awful, isn ’ t it? disgust

The place is a mess...

Exactly, but this place is unbearable. The door should have had a key in

neutral Really? How long have you been playing the violin? neutral About ten years so far. I started learning when I was in middle school. happiness That's really interesting. happiness Sure. So what about you? Do you have any hobbies? happiness Well, I like collecting matchbox! I'm not sure if that counts, though. happiness

You are a real kid!

What do you want to be, then--a musician or a fireman?

neutral Instead of tackling somebody, you just have to touch them with two hands, or if it is flag football, grab the flag that the ball carrier is wearing. neutral I see. It's safer then right? happiness Exactly. We play every Saturdays on the field by the tennis courts. If you want to learn and play a little, you're welcome to join us. happiness I'll give it a try. Give me a call and let's go down together. happiness Ok. I'll call you Saturday morning. happiness

You are my new best friend.

See. That wasn't hard, really... Hello, this Mr Brown speaking 136

neutral Everyone from school. neutral How do you know it's going to be so fun? happiness This party is going to have a DJ, food, and drinks. happiness Wow, that does sound like it's going to be fun. happiness So am I going to see you at the party? happiness

Yes! You can count on me.

Yeah, why not. See ya later all-tatties.

sadness I am pretty sure that I am in trouble. neutral I can see that you are trying, but where do you think you could improve? neutral I missed a few classes ; I need to make sure I come to school on a regular basis. neutral Having a regular study routine and following it is very important, right? neutral I'll try ; it's hard! neutral

What about keeping up with homework?

Do you plan your weekly agenda? surprise Really! That would really

neutral Yes, it was the kind of perfect plastic wrap that comes with new products.Look, it even had a bar-code price sticker on it! It looked brand new. neutral But why would a guy be selling new video cameras for twenty dollars? neutral He said he had to get rid of them. They were stolen. neutral Aha! Now I understand.You were trying to buy stolen goods on the sidewalk.So, what I think is, you deserve to get cheated! neutral C'mon, don't blame me! I thought it was a new camera. We could use it.We were even thinking about buying a camera. I don't understand how he could have such a perfect-looking box. neutral

Exactly! And we got him in an ambush.

Exactly! That means either he or she bought this at the store, then brought it here just

happiness Oh, that's exciting. What does this guy look like? Is he hot? neutral Well, I didn't think so at first. But as we started talking, I found him extremely funny and witty. I couldn't stop laughing at his jokes! And we have so much in common. We like the same team, music, and most amazingly, we both love Chinese food! I have the feeling that we are going to be great friends. happiness It seems you two are a good match. What qualities do you look for in a friend? neutral There's nothing definite I think. I don't have a list or anything, but when I first meet somebody, I can usually tell whether or not that person is going to be a good friend. It seems I have radar helping me spot new friends. surprise Well, that's something I've never heard of. But if you ask me what I value most in a friend, I would say honesty. neutral

Yes, that goes right down into our character. Some people aren't honest about how often they

Honesty. Yeah, yeah! That'll definitely help my friendship hunting. H

neutral A physics class about the creation of the universe? That ’ s some pretty unscientific language there. Sounds more religious to me. neutral It ’ s all religion. Take the theory of the Big Bang.How is it possible that all of the stuff in the universe comes from an explosion? That ’ s no better than Atlas carrying the globe on his back or African myths about turtles and stuff. neutral Turtles? Whatever... Look, all that ’ s required for the creation of matter an imbalance of particles and anti-particles. At least, that ’ s what the math says. neutral Math, sheath. What ’ s the evidence? neutral There is evidence! You know Edwin Hubble? He ’ s the guy who in the early twentieth century was the first scientist to measure the drift of matter in the universe, thus advancing notions of an expanding universe. What would it be expanding from? Well, the Big Bang... DUH! neutral

So now you are a scientific realist?

Yeah! I get your meaning. But, you see... 0569321

neutral Then the axiom -'You can't teach an old dog new tricks'doesn't work any longer. neutral You're right. Lifelong learning is about finding learning opportunities at all ages and in numerous contexts neutral Yes, I agree with you. When I retired I will participate in programs to keep momentally active. neutral Me too. To keep up with the changing world, one must be involved in lifelong learning and be ready to accept new things. neutral You know what? I've recently been teaching myself French. surprise

Oh really? What made you decide that.

Wow, that sounds hard! Not so much. With language training software or a

anger It smells like an ashtray in here! neutral Hi honey! What ’ s wrong? Why do you have that look on your face? anger What ’ s wrong? I thought we agreed that you were gonna quit smoking. neutral No! I said I was going to cut down which is very different. You can ’ t just expect me to go cold turkey overnight! anger Look, there are other ways to quit. You can try the nicotine patch, or nicotine chewing gum. We spend a fortune on cigarettes every month and now laws are cracking down and not allowing smoking in any public place. It ’ s not like you can just light up like before. neutral

Well, how about this. Since it looks more serious than my cousin having cancer maybe they will offer

OK! Here's some money... Let'sa meet, maybe it would help.

neutral How come you think of him that way? disgust Because you seem to have lost your vigilance. You should be on the watch out. neutral I have no reason to distrust him. He's never caused any harm. anger Isn't there anything that sounds fishy? neutral Nothing smells a rat. I told you that he's an all-right guy. surprise

Really? Maybe it is true then.

What do these crazy guys want? neutral Someone was spying in our

neutral Have you signed up to join the company ’ s Christmas party? neutral Sure, I have. Will you join? neutral I will. You know, as a newcomer, I think it might be a good opportunity to get to know people from the other departments of our company in a more relaxed atmosphere. neutral You are right. Our company ’ s Christmas party has always been an amazing occasion for everybody to relax and get to know each other better. It is also a time to make new friends and do some networking. neutral I hope that it is not a formal one when the boss is there. neutral

Yes, sir. This year we plan on making your experience even easier with special entertainment programs throughout

No, we can just enjoy ourselves at this special celebration without worrying too much about what others

neutral hi, Emily, do you know that guy over there? neutral The tall one? Sure, that's Drive, he works with Lily. neutral He is cute.What dose he do? neutral I'm not sure, he is a manager I think. surprise Really? Are you going to introduce us? neutral

Well, why don ’ t you ask him?

No! 1 can always get him on her own, right? happiness That

neutral You didn't ring me last night. You said you would. sadness I'm sorry to have made you disappointed. neutral That's all right. But why were you so rude to me at lunch. surprise Was I? Sorry, I didn ’ t mean to be. I do apologize. neutral And why are you yarning now? Are you bored? neutral

Yes, but not because of your brother.

No, but your hair is really beautiful in this sunshine! happiness Oh

surprise Really? Why? neutral Well, on Saturday I cleaned the house and played tennis. Then on Sunday I hiked in the country. neutral And I bet you studied, too. neutral Yeah. I studied on Sunday evening. What about you? neutral Well, I didn't clean the house and I didn't study. I stayed in bed and watched TV. happiness

That sounds like a nice relaxation.

Wake up!

neutral He ’ ll be a teenager before you know it! Teenagers are often rebellious! When do you mine it is a good age to have a child? neutral I had mine when I was 24. that ’ s a little young. I ’ d suggest you wait until you are in your late twenties., or even in your early thirties if you have a good career. neutral Yes, I think you ’ re right. I ’ m thinking about having a child, but not just yet. neutral Is there a big generation gap between parents and their children in you country? neutral Yes, there is. Teenagers do not want to live traditional lives. They want to go out, have fun, and explore the world. They want to develop their own view of life. Parents usually try to discourage them, but they don ’ t often succeed. neutral

Do most families follow what their grandparents say, anyway? If so. why would anyone waste

You see! It sounds like we really aren'mention our children very much, either. Maybe you

happiness They are. And not only that the people are friendly, but also the food is delicious, not to mention cheap. happiness I do like Thai food. Did you see much of Bangkok? happiness Not much. I've got enough city life in Beijing. happiness I know what you mean. I could use a vacation myself. happiness Hey, wouldn't it be great if we could go to Thailand together sometime? happiness

That would work for us all right!

Why not? neutral Well, let me tell them my plans. You don ’

neutral Could I see the manager please? I have a complaint to make. neutral Yes, I ’ m the manager here. What can I do for you, Madam? neutral Did you have the room checked before we move in? neutral Which room are you in? neutral 1808. The toilet doesn ’ t work properly, the water doesn ’ t run in the shower. neutral

Well, it will take some days. We need to check with our staff and repair it when possible

Oh! Sorry, it has been fixed. Please go and tell your neighbor about this. They will

happiness Congratulations, Vivian. You won the grand prize, again. happiness Isn't it just great! I just knew I'd win! surprise You did? How? Did you wear red underwear again this year? neutral Not only that! neutral Tell me! Tell me! What's your secret?! neutral

Well, my husband bought a bottle of perfume for every woman in all three hundred and thirty

Well... uh.. neutral OK, tell! Go on. Say everything!

neutral You'v been work here for nearly a month, how do you feel about the job? neutral Not bad.Thank you for your help. I am always busy with this job, I feel a bit tired. neutral I had the same feeling when I first came to work here. but after a period of time, I feel better, I am sure you'll get used to this busy job. neutral I also feel that work efficiency here is very high. and you have strong working ability and professional skill, it seems that you know all, that's really wonderful! neutral You know the phrase, the survival the fittest. We have no choices. neutral

That's right.

Exactly right!

happiness Thanks a lot. neutral Do you work in Shanghai? neutral Yes I do. How about you? neutral No, I'm a tourist. This place is amazing! It's much bigger than I imagined, and much more exciting! There's so much to see here. neutral You can say that again! It's much more modern than people imagine. Where are you from? neutral

From England, but where were we born?

America? disgust Yeah... it really isn't worth the trouble.

neutral How was your education going on in Australia? neutral I'm going to graduate this summer. neutral Where are you going to work then, in Australia or back in China? neutral I'm planning to return to China after graduation. neutral Why are you choosing to leave a foreign country? Many people are reluctant to leave the superior living environment abroad. neutral

You mean many students like me?

Most young Chinese want an international career. They see overseas study as necessary for their progress into

neutral I hear many teenagers will spend hours and hours sitting at computers. And they don't care about their own health at all. How about you? neutral I'm no better than them. They say it's mindless to sit in front of a machine all the time, but I think it's stimulating. neutral You won't play online games full of violence, will you? neutral Once in a while. neutral It's no good. And I think spending several hours each day playing computer games is a waste of time. You might as well do something healthy and meaningful. neutral

What else can be said?

What else? neutral Many kids want more free time for leisurely

neutral Critics are not very happy with the movies that you ’ Ve made recently. Does that bother you? neutral Not at all. The feedback from audience has been great. I care about what they think more than what the critics think. neutral Did you do you own stunts in the movie? neutral I wanted to, but my insurance company wouldn ’ t let me. All of my stunts were done by a stuntman. As you know, I used to do my own stunts, but I ’ ll leave that to the experts in future. happiness Thank you very much for doing this interview. happiness

You are quite welcome. Goodbye!

My pleasure! disgust What is it like being famous

neutral Well, I feel a little tired. neutral Come on! A little labor, much health. neutral Then can you wait a few minutes? I want to finish writing this letter. neutral Don't take too long. It would be a shame not to take advantage of such lovely weather. neutral I won't be long. No more than ten minutes. Why don't you go ahead and I'll meet you in the park? neutral

OK. Wait for me by the lake.

OK. See your out here, at two thirty-two. ( Benjamin left ; Janet stayed

neutral Thank god you showed up when you did! He ’ s insane! Do you think we should call the police? neutral Don ’ t worry about it, I ’ ll call my friend and have him take care of it. I can ’ t believe he was stalking you all these years. What a nut job! neutral I know! Well... he said I ’ m not pregnant. I ’ m sorry if I got you all worked up over nothing. I want you to know that I didn ’ t do it on purpose... neutral Don ’ t apologize! From the moment I met you, not a day has gone by when I haven ’ t thought of you.And now that I ’ m with you again, I ’ m... I ’ m just scared, Veronica. The closer I get to you, the worse it gets. The thought of not being with you, I mean, I just can ’ t handle it! We were made for each other, Veronica. You are my everything, my soul mate. What can I do? neutral Just hold me... I ’ ll always be here for you, no matter what. And together, we can tackle whatever life throws at us. I believe in us, steven. happiness

It sounds so romantic, but...

It sounds so simple, doesn ’ t? surprise Really! That works.

neutral Zina, can I talk to you about something personal? neutral As long as it doesn't take too long. neutral My boyfriend says I work too much. That I spend more time with you than with him. neutral Was he upset when you told him you had to leave this weekend? neutral He said not to bother coming back. And I said, fine, I won't. neutral

What does that tell you?

You mean... disgust Oh, come on! Don' t do the

neutral oh, it's love at first sight. When will you see each other again? neutral he didn't say, but he said he would call me. neutral maybe he is busy with his work. Just wait and try not to think about it too much! neutral oh, steve. Stop it! I am a bit nervous! What if he doesn't call? neutral come on, Mary, you're a total catch. I bet he will call you. Don't worry. happiness

Thanks for your support, jake.

thanks! sadness what can we do? This situation seems really complicated.

neutral What ’ s up? neutral Actually, the business trip itself was very successful. We arrived on time, we had nice conversations and we settled some important issues for the next year. neutral Sounds quite fruitful, why do you call it still a nightmare then? neutral Well, the air line lost my luggage on the return flight and then I lost my carry on bag when I was tackling with the officers in charge. I left the airport three hours later than I expected and then I was caught in a traffic jam. When I finally got home, I was totally exhausted. But I found the elevator was out of service due to a blackout. neutral This is really a sad story. Did they trace back your luggage? neutral

They promised that.

Yes, just this evening. neutral And did you get any kind reconsider

happiness That's good. Do you live near here? neutral No, we live in the suburbs. What about you? neutral I live downtown, with my parents. neutral Do you have a car? happiness I don't need a car. I walk to work. happiness

It's nice walking, isn't it?

Oh that must save much money. disgust You know, gasoline costs

happiness Happy anniversary, sweetheart! happiness Yes. to our first anniversary and many more to come. Cheers! happiness I'll drink to that. Thanks for making this a night worth remembering. happiness Well, it's a special day. They say if you survive the first year, the rest is smooth sailing. happiness That's good to know. Oh, listen! The band's playing our song. happiness

Do you want another dance?

It can only be one, " My One and Only.'

neutral Cigarette? neutral Oh, uh... Thanks. Henry, do you have a light? neutral Sorry, here. neutral Thanks. Lovely day. Pity I ’ m on duty. neutral I ’ ll stand in with you if you like. I ’ Ve got nothing else to do. neutral

No, don't be silly.

Well, thanks anyhow. anger You shouldn't smoke at the dance

neutral I'd like to call on you this weekend. I just want to a drop in for a chat. surprise Really? well, ok, you're welcome. neutral Is 5 PM. Saturday a good time for you? neutral Hmm, how about seven? I can treat you to dinner. happiness Sure, that would be great. I'll bring the wine. happiness

Excellent. We will see later, then?

Ok, see then at my house. You don ’ t have any trouble finding it?

neutral And? neutral You hit the white ball with your cue. The white ball hits the colored balls. And you want to get the colored balls into the pockets. neutral How do you know whether you should hit the solid or the striped one? neutral At the beginning, it does not matter, but once someone gets one ball in, it is set. happiness Can I get the black ball in? happiness

Sure. That will make all of us happy!

Absolutely, because if no ones has all 10 balls in. we play a very

neutral Do you have any bug spray? neutral No, I forgot to buy some. neutral Then we ’ ll have to put up with it. neutral We can cover ourselves with beer! That way if they bite us, they ’ ll get drunk and fall asleep. neutral That ’ s without a doubt, the best idea you ’ Ve had! Let ’ s do it! neutral

Be quiet or go home, young man.

Wait! What was that? It sounds like thunder. Can anyone hear anything outdoors...

neutral Stop running around in front of the TV, will you? Why don't you just sit and watch? neutral I've tried, but I can't stand the bald man talking so loudly in the program. neutral Then stay away. No one is keeping you from doing that. neutral Don't be so irritable. I just don't understand the program, that's all. neutral All right, I will explain it to you later on. Now scram. neutral

Hey, what happened? What did he say?

Do they sell any kind, say a black one. anger Exactly why are

neutral Okay, can I ask you something direct? neutral Ha! It's not like you've ever been one to beat around the bush. neutral Fair enough. Give it to me straight. Did she bully you into this? neutral No, seriously... I really want this. neutral I tell ya, when I got the invite, it really threw me for a loop. You've done a complete 180. neutral

Well, maybe... and what if your friend is right? What happens in two years or so.

Yeah, and look how great my hair looks! But hey. If we are going all-

neutral My daughter plans to quit her present job and wants to find another. She says she wants to get a better job with higher pay. neutral It seems quite normal to me. It is pretty much what I want to do. neutral But what about settling down to start a family? Doesn't anyone want to get married any more? neutral It is different now. The world is becoming colorful. Some of my friends don't feel the same pressure to marry. We all want to wait for the right moment. neutral What time is the right moment? neutral

You have your own opinion as you see it from your personal life situation. Many young people just want

When our parents have already gotten old! anger You really make it difficult on

neutral do me a favor, and take a taxi. It'd make me feel a lot better. neutral ok, we will. How do you get around in the evenings? neutral when I first moved in, I walked everywhere. But within a week, I had my purse stolen — just a block away from the police station! Now, I always take public transportation. neutral has anything else happened to you? neutral nothing else has happened to me, but I have seen quite a few fights on the streets after the bars close. neutral

that is something new. Is there any way you could avoid walking late at night?

that must save some money! disgust Yeah it sure makes for an interesting

neutral Would you please write your name on this list? neutral Then what? neutral I will call you when a computer is free. neutral How do I log on to the computer? neutral Use the number on the back of your library card. neutral

Do all cards work with computers?

Do I need my own computer? sadness No, we

happiness What a nice tie you are wearing! happiness Thank you.But does it really look all right? happiness Certainly.It matches your suit perfectly. happiness Then does it go well with my sweater? happiness Yes.You look very smart today. happiness

I am happy about what the girls say.

Do the girls like me more after I wear this?

neutral What do you make of the case? neutral If you ask me, I don ’ t think it ’ s guilty. neutral What do you mean by saying so? neutral I mean it ’ s not his fault. neutral Oh, yeah? neutral

He doesn't know any better.

Yeah. Because he is a poor guy, all right 。?! That doesn't

sadness Oh, no. neutral Yes, Jane was quite upset about it. The manager came to apologize and we did get free dessert, but still... neutral I would think this was the least they could do. neutral In the end it was a nice evening and I got an iPad as my birthday present which I wanted for a while. happiness Great. I have also been thinking of getting one. Do you think you could ask Jane to have a quiet word with Margaret? My birthday is not that far away. neutral

She's already asked her.

Ha, ha!

neutral Two tickets, please. How much are they? neutral Oh no, Ari. I didn ’ t mean for you to pay for me when I invited you to go tonight. Let ’ s go Dutch. I ’ ll pay my own way. I insist. neutral I ’ m looking forward to this film. I read a good review of it in this morning ’ s newspaper. neutral Me, too. It will be great to see something light and funny for a change. I ’ m tired of heavy drama. neutral Are these seats okay? neutral

They look quite fine. Do the people already here know that there is someone new sitting behind them?

Yes, that should give us an excellent view. Is the director famous? happiness

neutral Why don ’ t you find the information on the internet instead? neutral Sometimes it takes too long to find the exact information you are looking for. Besides, I like to read a magazine in a coffee bar sometimes. neutral Do you have an online edition of that magazine? neutral Yes, they do. But you can only access all the articles if you have a subscription. neutral Do you have a subscription? neutral

Not now, perhaps later.

Yes. 2 months, actually! That is good enough to get my weekly news fixed with

happiness I'm studying medicine. surprise Really? Where? happiness At Harvard. What about you? happiness I'm an engineer at IBM. happiness Oh, are you? That sounds interesting. happiness

Yeah.It'll make a perfect job. 1574

Yeah, and the salary is good also. neutral The salery of a doctor

happiness I've seen it so many times in books, but I never imagined I'd get to see it in person. neutral There are tons of other paintings that I think are better. happiness Maybe so, but do you have any idea how much this one is worth? neutral No, how much is it worth? happiness About 80 million dollars. surprise

Oh my goodness! How did anyone manage to spend a fortune on something like this? It looks

You don't really know? neutral Of course, we had the auction

neutral you mean you got working experience, right? neutral not just working experience. I would say the biggest lesson I learned is how to deal with people from all walks of life. neutral it must be very demanding. neutral sometimes it is. But after working for a few weeks, it ’ s easy to figure out. happiness really? It sounds interesting. neutral

and also, maybe because we have more foreign clients recently. They often ask me if they want something

and that was when my career started, actually. surprise ! You seemed so compet

happiness Jim, how was your weekend? happiness I went to the beach with my friends and had a barbecue there. happiness That sounds like a lot of fun. Did you go swimming, too? happiness Sure. I think it ’ s a fantastic place to go. happiness I couldn ’ t agree more. That ’ s an ideal place for a vacation. happiness

We were all excited about that trip.

It really suits our preferences, because we are interested in beaches. happiness

neutral You come dressed in anything from the sixties. happiness That sounds like fun. But where can I get clothes that old? happiness Check out your mom's closet. I'll bet she still has something. happiness Good idea. Can I bring some music from that period too? happiness That will be great! Do you have LPs or Cds? happiness

Oh, both. This is such a blast!

Oh, both-My parents are very record collection.

neutral I want to improve my handwriting, and I've practiced it for several weeks, but nothing happened. You see, my handwriting is still bad. neutral Oh, come on. You know it's a long process, you have to be patient. neutral I know it, but I don't know when I can make it better. neutral A, whatever you do, the most important is perseverance. So you have to hang on there, the longer, the better. Then some day, you will find you've already made a lot of progress. happiness Yeah, you are right. I must stop complaining and stick to it every day. happiness

That's wise. Keep up your good job!

Well done. sadness The thing is that...

happiness And my first nephew. He looks a lot like you, mum. He does. happiness Do you think so? Well, I guess. He does look a lot like me. Oh, he ’ s got Richard ’ s eyes though. happiness Yes, he does have Richard ’ s eyes. The baby even looks like you than Richard does. neutral Well, children usually resemble their parents. neutral It ’ s true. Michelle is a lot like Henry in so many ways. And she is shy with new people just like he is. neutral

But we cannot say the child will turn out to do anything exactly as its parents did.

But children are not often like the parent that came after them. surprise Really

happiness The music has started. happiness How do you like this waltz? happiness It's very nice. happiness May I ask you for a dance? happiness Certainly. happiness

Thank your kind consideration.

Excuse me. Can anyone tell where the men sit? neutral

neutral I suppose she's right. Does she speak English very slowly? neutral Not always. Sometimes we don't understand her. Then she has to repeat what she said. neutral It must be interesting to study English. neutral Mario and I are the best students in the class. Miss Parker says that my pronunciation is very good. neutral Is English pronunciation easy or difficult? neutral

Oh. you have a strong German accent, but when someone else pronounces it correctly...

2 5, Dear Anna, it takes great effort. Some words can be pronanced several

fear Yes, he was. I'm not imagining it.Finally, just when I got home, I turned around and looked at him.He was just standing there. He didn't smile. He just stood there. It was so obvious.What should I do? I'm so scared. Can I call the police? neutral Actually, I don't think you can call the police. Not yet at least.He hasn't done anything. And probably the police will just ignore it.But if anything happens again, then maybe you should call. fear Why can't I call the police now? He was definitely following me! neutral Of course you can call the police if you want. That's not what I mean. I'm just saying that they probably won't do anything. neutral I suppose. What can they do? I don't even know who he is. neutral

You need to be more careful. Don worry about your brother, OK? Just take some care in

Listen! You haven't been paying attention all day. neutral Well

neutral Therefore, it ’ s not exaggerate to claim that had there not been religion, there would note Harvard. neutral Wow, I didn ’ t know that religion had played such an important role in Harvard history. neutral Religion has been playing an indispensible part in Harvard history as well as the U. S. neutral I finally begin to get to know Harvard. It seems that my knowledge of Harvard is rather poor. I have a lot work to do before applying for Harvard. neutral Remember that Harvard is a part of the United States. So you have to know the U. S. history and culture if you want to have in-depth knowledge of Harvard. The two are closely related. happiness

That's really wise idea. You said it

You can take this kind course on line. If needed, please call us at any time when trying

neutral I don ’ t often go for walks, but I either play sports outside-you know, tennis or badminton-or just sit in the sunshine and read a good book. neutral What do you do in winter? neutral Well, I play sports indoors quite often. If I ’ m feeling lazy, I just watch a film at home. I prefer summer to winter. neutral I think most people do. I like wearing nice, colorful clothes in summer-you know, a nice dress or skirt. It ’ s too cold for those kinds of clothes in winter. neutral Yes. I like wearing shorts in summer. My legs would freeze! neutral

How about food? Do you have special dishes in your country that are available only during particular times

So what is your favorite season? Is it summer, autumn or spring happiness For

neutral Oh, I forget.Sorry. neutral I went to Harvard University. neutral Did you? And what course did you take there? surprise God save me! Is there anything wrong with you? Didn't I tell you? neutral I've not known.Perhaps, I've got a bad memory. neutral

Well, anyway. It doesn ’ t matter.

You are quite right, young man! Don't be scared. But it takes years of

neutral Yep. And I should start planning now. neutral Does everyone usually show up for your family reunions? neutral Just about. There are at least a few hundred in our immediate family alone. neutral How Ay days will the reunion be? neutral Usually it's at least five days and four nights. happiness

Wow, that sounds like fun!

This year, there were almost six days of special activities. What time did all the 10

neutral To me English is a difficult language. neutral A second language is always difficult. neutral True, but English is harder than most.It's a crazy language. surprise A crazy language? Why do you say that? neutral One letter can have several pronunciations and one word can have several meanings. neutral

I don ’ t understand what you mean.

You said the same things about Chinese before! disgust The more I know of

neutral What did you think of the film? happiness I liked it. I thought it was great. neutral Yes, I liked it, too. Did you like the acting? happiness Yes. I thought it was excellent. Didn't you? disgust Not really. I thought it was disappointing. happiness

You have good taste.

You had high expectations. That must have been part why they are un fulfilled, huh

surprise A physics class about the creation of the universe? That ’ s some pretty unscientific language there. Sounds more religious to me. neutral It ’ s all religion. Take the theory of the Big Bang.How is it possible that all of the stuff in the universe comes from an explosion? That ’ s no better than Atlas carrying the globe on his back or African myths about turtles and stuff. neutral Turtles? Whatever... Look, all that ’ s required for the creation of matter an imbalance of particles and anti-particles. At least, that ’ s what the math says. neutral Math, sheath. What ’ s the evidence? neutral There is evidence! You know Edwin Hubble? He ’ s the guy who in the early twentieth century was the first scientist to measure the drift of matter in the universe, thus advancing notions of an expanding universe. What would it be expanding from? Well, the Big Bang... DUH! neutral

Yeah, yeah. So then you have everything coming apart because at one time they were all together inside

I am afraid we must accept a great deal upon faith. sadness9 Oh man

neutral Which film shall we see? happiness There is nothing good at the moment.Let's do something different.Would you like to go to a concert? happiness Yes, I'd love to.Here is a good one, Mozart and Beethoven.It's on the Festival Hall.Shall we go there? neutral Fine! Do you want anything to eat now? neutral No, I'm not hungry. neutral

Then let me have some of my salad!

Well, let me buy it. sadness Oh... no, this time Let
