Unit 3

Betty:This is a good book, Daming.It’s called The Arabian Nights.Have you read it?

Daming:Yes, but I didn’t like it.The king is told a different story each night, but I thought it was quite long and boring.

Betty:Oh, really? I loved it.What about this one? It’s about a house with something strange in it.

Daming:Oh, no.I didn’t like that.

Betty:Oh, really? Well, what about this story? It looks exciting.It’s about a boat trip on a river.

Daming:Yes, that book is wonderful.I read it last week.

Betty:Here’s another one.Oh, look, it’s got a baby duck and a baby pig on the front.They’re so sweet!

Daming:That book is only for babies, Betty! I don’t want to read baby picture books!

Betty:You’re right.Well, how about this one about China? It looks interesting.

Daming:I agree.I read that and I liked it.It’s got some great photos.

Betty:And have you read this? It looks very interesting.

Daming:Yes, I have.And I really enjoyed it.The writer visits different places and interviews the people there.They talk about how their lives have changed.You should read it.

Betty:I think I will!
