W:I enjoy going through a secondhand bookstore.It’s interesting to see what people used to enjoy reading.Did you see this old book of children’s stories?

M:Some of these books aren’t so old,though…See? This mystery was published only six years ago.It cost seventy-five cents.You can’t beat that.

W:Hey! Look at this!

M:What? Are you getting interested in nineteenth century poetry all of a sudden?

W:No.Look at the inscription! Someone gave this book as a present,and wrote a note on the inside of the front cover.It’s dated 1893.Maybe it’s worth something.

M:Everything on that shelf is worth fifty cents.

W:But if this is a signature of someone who is well known,it might bring a lot more.I hear William Shakespeare’s signature is worth about a million dollars.

M:Hey,Lisa,what are you doing?

W:Watching a Japanese film.I’m going to spend all next year in Japan,and I think I should find out more about its culture.

M:You mean you have been accepted into the program?

W:I sure have.

M:That’s wonderful.You must be excited.

W:Excited and nervous.You know I have to work on some basic conversation skills.

M:How much Japanese can you understand?

W:Only a little now.But I’m going to take a special language class next month.

M:I wish I were as clever as you are at foreign languages.I would love to study abroad.

W:Then why don’t you? The school has a lot of programs that don’t require the mastery of a foreign language.You just have to be the kind of person who is quick to learn new things and can get used to a new environment fast.

M:I thought all programs required one to know a foreign language.Thank you for letting me know this.
