M:Are you going to be home at 3:00 pm today,or are you staying late at work?

W:I’m not staying late,but I was going to stop by the grocery store on my way home.Why?

M:I have something being delivered around 5:00 pm,and I want to make sure someone is there to receive it.

W:Oh,okay.I can be home by 5:00 pm,but the kids will both be home from soccer practice by then.One of them could sign for it.

M:No,they can’t,because it is a box of wine.The delivery person will need to see identification to make sure the person signing is over 21 years old.Our kids are not old enough yet.

W:Fine.I will hurry home before the wine arrives.

W:I think I want to become an expert on computer safety,but the schools that I want to apply to don’t have that major.I know that there are some private colleges that offer it.Should I send applications to those places,too?

M:I don’t think that’s a good idea,honey.You can consider that as a career,but I think you should study a broader subject in school.

W:Like what?

M:Well,what would be a learning requirement for a computer security job?

W:Computer science!

M:Definitely.But let’s go even further.Do you know what you should learn well in order to be good at computer science?

W:Math?

M:Yes!

W:But… I don’t know if I want to major in math.It seems like it would be so hard!

M:It’s okay,honey.You don’t have to only study math.But you do need to have a solid background in it.Choosing computer science as your major is good,but you should also take plenty of math classes.No matter what you plan to do,I’m behind you,my little girl.

M:Hey,Lisa.I am glad I catch you before you go in.Now we can go in together.

W:Hey,John.I’m surprised to see you here.What made you come tonight?I thought you said you were busy when I asked yesterday.Did you change your plan to go to your grandparents’ house?

M:Well,I did say that originally.However,I want to be honest now and tell you that I lied to you.I really wanted to come tonight,but I was scared.I have never been on a roller coaster before.

W:Don’t apologize for that.I’m sorry that I put you into that position.I wouldn’t have invited you if I had known you were scared.I never meant to make tonight stressful.

M:No,it’s my fault.I really never had the opportunity to fix my problem before,so I didn’t know what to do.But I came tonight to face my fears directly!

W:That is very brave of you.I’m glad to be here with you while you do that.Besides,the town’s holiday celebrations have much smaller rides.It is a good place to start.Let’s buy some tickets and enjoy the celebrations.

M:Thank you for being so understanding.You are a really great friend.Let me buy the tickets for us to thank you.

Today is the third day of my week’s holiday in Paris.The journey here was very long and I felt tired because I didn’t get much sleep on the plane.But I was excited when I got in the taxi and I could see the Eiffel Tower from the window.It really is quite an impressive sight.The weather here is a little bit cold,and sometimes rainy.So I had to buy a new umbrella because I forgot to bring one.The traffic is very bad,so usually I like to walk if I can.But it’s a big city,so it can get very tiring after a few hours.The food here is delicious,but I don’t like the breakfast served at the hotel.However,I am so lucky because there is a nice bakery close to where I am staying.They have fresh bread every morning and the shopkeeper always greets me with a big smile.I have visited most of the famous places,but I couldn’t get into the Louvre,because I went too late last night and the tickets were all sold out.I really hope I can go today,because I’m a big fan of art galleries and I must see the painting of Mona Lisa.It’s the real reason I came here.
