Text 1

W: Jack, are you going camping with your friends this weekend?

M: It depends. If it’s sunny, we’ll go.

W: The weatherman says it’s going to rain.

M: In that case, we’ll go to the cinema instead.

Text 2

W: Excuse me, could you mind my bags for a moment? I want to buy some food at the convenience store.

M: No problem. But be quick. It was announced that my train will arrive in 10 minutes.

Text 3

W: Mark came out of hospital last Friday. Have you got a chance to visit him?

M: I plan to see him this Saturday.

W: Aren’t you going to the conference then?

M: No. It has been rescheduled for next Monday.

Text 4

M: Sorry, Miss. We made a terrible mistake adding up the bill. Here is the ten dollars we have to return to you.

W: Oh, I didn’t notice that. It’s OK. Don’t blame the waiter. He’s been really nice.

Text 5

W: Do you think we should get Steve a book for the New Year?

M: Books are good. But Steve wouldn’t take just any book. He has had this particular one on geography.

Text 6

M: Hello, Sarah.

W: Hello, David. I can’t come for dinner tonight. Sorry.

M: Oh, what happened?

W: We’ve got a new case and things get pretty crazy here in the office.

M: Well, then I’ll come to you.

W: No, no, not tonight. Let me see if I can arrange another night.

M: Sarah, please. We need to talk. It’s about my job.

W: Then tell me on the phone.

M: No, it’s better if we do it in person. How about tomorrow night?

W: I’m not sure. You can give me a call tomorrow afternoon.

M: OK.

Text 7

W: Jeff will call on us this afternoon. Do you know where he is now?

M: Er... wait. Let me see. He has sent two messages saying that he’s done with his work at the office and got a taxi and... and he’ll arrive in twenty minutes.

W: We can’t keep him waiting outside our home. We have to hurry.

M: But it takes at least half an hour to get to the city center by bus. Look at the traffic.

W: Let’s get off. We can save at least twenty minutes by walking through the park.

M: Are you sure?

W: Yes. A hundred percent.

Text 8

W: Morning, Mark.

M: Morning, Clara. How was your weekend?

W: Great. I went to my grandpa’s. He invited us to pick vegetables on his farm. My daughter had a great time there. What about you?

M: Oh, I had a truly incredible experience. I dropped by a yard sale on Saturday and got several books.

W: Novels?

M: A novel and two poetry collections. As I leafed through the novel, a piece of paper fell out. It was an air ticket from 2012. The flight was from Los Angeles to Chicago and the name on the ticket was Ashley Louis.

W: Was it?

M: Yes. Ashley, my sister. In 2012, she lived in Los Angeles and her husband worked in Chicago. Both of them often flew between two cities. I asked the seller where he got the book. He said it was bought at a second-hand bookstore in Los Angeles three years ago. Last year, he and his family moved from Los Angeles to Philadelphia.

W: So, all the way cross the country, your sister’s old book landed in your hands. That’s really crazy.

Text 9

W: Victor, you’ve been here in Indiana for six weeks now. How are you feeling?

M: I think I’ve got used to college life, going to classes, working out and hanging out with my friends. Though there’s pressure to meet deadlines, life here is never boring.

W: What’s been hard about being an Indiana basketball player?

M: Well, the training is very competitive, weightlifting and running every day. It’s not like high school. In high school, I really didn’t have to do that. I’m just trying to get used to it. And I think I am.

W: At this point, how do you see yourself fitting into this group?

M: I think we’re all different. George is from Britain. Chris and Leo are from Australia. I’m from France. And the rest are Americans. But I get along with everybody. You know, we are really starting to bond. It’s great to see how we grow each day as a team.

W: Thanks, Victor. I wish you a very happy and fruitful stay in Indiana.
