I would die for a plate of stir fry right now!" }, { "from": "human", "value": "Well, you can keep the vegetables, I'll take the meat. The stir fry my wife made was really hearty, with chunks of beef and slivers of bell peppers and onion..." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "What? You call that a stir fry? More meat than vegetables? That's the worst insult you could throw at a Chinese stir fry. What a disgrace to the wok she fried it in! What you had is equivalent to a fajita without the wrap!" } ]

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.

[ { "from": "human", "value": "So the company decided to cancel your trip to Hong Kong?" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Yes, The SARS epidemic is not under effective control yet. So I'd better not risk it." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Maybe it's a good things. If you don't have to go to Hong Kong, you can take a break and take things easy for a while." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "You are right.

Doesn't anyone want to get married any more?" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "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." }, { "from": "human", "value": "What time is the right moment?" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Let the universe find us instead of forcing love.

You probably don't want to be walking around after dark." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "it can't be that bad." }, { "from": "human", "value": "I wish it wasn't, but there is actually a lot of crime and prostitution around here." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "really? I never would have guessed. The criminals must only come out in the evenings, because I've never noticed anything strange when I've been at your house in the daytime." }, { "from": "human", "value": "do me a favor, and take a taxi.

Li Na's mother has been building a fire under her since her neighbour's daughter got married with a Canadian. She's almost driving Li Na crazy." }, { "from": "human", "value": "If I were Li Na, I would ask her if she had done that." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "She is as meek as a lamb.

[ { "from": "human", "value": "What do you make of the case?" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "If you ask me, I don't think it's guilty." }, { "from": "human", "value": "What do you mean by saying so?" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "I mean it's not his fault." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Oh, yeah?" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Yes.

Can you tell me something about it?" }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Do you come from a country where they shake hands?" }, { "from": "human", "value": "Oh yes. Men, women, and children shake hands all the time." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "It's very simple. Men shake hands, women and children don't." }, { "from": "human", "value": "But some women do shake hands. And now a lot of children have such good manners, they shake hands too." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Well, a good rule to follow is, for men you hold out your hand, for women and children, you wait and see what they do." }, { "from": "human", "value": "That sounds easy enough." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Sure. Once you get the hang of it, it's a piece of cake! It's nothing to worry about." } ]

A lot of Americans, including many scientists, believe in religion." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "But I'm really surprised.

How can people believe in God since they know God doesn't exist?" }, { "from": "human", "value": "That's a little complicated. You'll get to know it when you are acquainted with the U.

It was founded by a group of Puritan immigrants from England." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Why was it founded by the Puritans?

I mean why most of them were religious people?" }, { "from": "human", "value": "That's because in the 16th and 17th century, there was a series of religious reforms in England. Many religious separatists were persecuted and fled to other countries." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "So, you mean people didn't enjoy religious freedom in England?" }, { "from": "human", "value": "Yes, that's why Puritans moved to the New World, where they believed they could establish a heaven for Puritans. Later on, it was these Puritans who founded Harvard College." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Why did they want to found a college?" }, { "from": "human", "value": "Many Puritans had received classic style of higher education in Oxford University and Cambridge University back in England.

Interestingly, JohnHarvard himself was a clergyman." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "It seems that Harvard was predestined to be influenced by religion." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Therefore, it's not exaggerate to claim that had there not been religion, there would note Harvard." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "Wow, I didn't know that religion had played such an important role in Harvard history." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Religion has been playing an indispensible part in Harvard history as well as the U.

I have a lot work to do before applying for Harvard." }, { "from": "human", "value": "Remember that Harvard is a part of the United States. So you have to know the U.
