M:Hi,Amelia.I haven’t seen you for ages! Are you enjoying living in Oxford?

W:Well, it’s not bad.The house is nice and my sister has the small bedroom, so I got the bigger one.The living room is quite big too, and the kitchen is bright.

M:Do you get to see your friends often, now that you live in a different city?

W:You know, before we moved I thought that might be a problem, but it’s very easy to get around.We’re right next to the train station and there’s a direct train back to my old town, so going to see them isn’t difficult.We all met up last weekend and took part in a bicycle race, which was fun.

M:Can I help you,madam?

W:I think I just have a vegetable salad and a cup of lemon tea.

M:Is that all?

W:Yes. I’m overweight, so I want a low-fat diet. My doctor said that my heart suffers a lot from my weight and I have to change my lifestyle and lose at least 30 pounds to keep it working properly. It may take me about a year to get down to my proper weight with a good amount of exercise.

M:Do you plan not to eat anything but vegetable salad for at least a year?

W:No. I can eat fruit and some beef, but most important,I should never eat anything containing sugar or any unhealthy food.

M:Then probably you won’t try the delicious seafood served here.

W:That’s true.

M:Janet,what’s wrong with you?

W:I’m finding studying at Oxford quite hard.

M:You’re telling me!There’s so much work!

W:It’s not the work — but everything’s so different.In China, generally we have large classes, but we don’t have classes after that.And mostly, our teachers tell us what we should do, so I’m not used to asking questions or discussing things.

M:You have to memorise a lot, don’t you?

W:Yes, but I’m good at that.

M:You’re lucky.There’s so much to remember studying law!

W:Yes, well, we’ve been trained to do that.But we don’t have so much training in thinking, such as giving your opinion and then proving it.

M:Yes, I suppose that’s what our teachers have always encouraged us to do.

W:Good evening,Mr.Hunt.What’s your question?

M:I have been learning English for some years.I have learned quite a lot of grammar and words.But when I went to England this summer,I couldn’t understand the English people at all.I have lost heart and even want to give it up.

W:How long have you been studying English?

M:About four years.

W:How exactly?Going to an evening class or using tapes?

M:I have been going to an evening class and I have watched quite a lot of BBC television programs.

W:They’re very good.Did you buy the BBC book?

M:No.We use a different book in the class.But I watched the programs.

W:I see…Mr.Hunt.I always think that learning a language is rather like learning to drive.Now you couldn’t learn to drive a car by sitting in a classroom or watching television.I think what you need is a lot of practice in using the language.

　　M:Last weekend,my family took part in an eight-kilometer running race.The normal running races are in city streets or in big parks, but in this race, all the runners ran on mountain roads. When the race started, my son took off quickly. My wife and I ran together. We walked sometimes because the roads were hard to climb on. We talked about the view and looked at the flowers and trees during the race.But later, I fell over and hurt my left foot. We kept running without checking my foot. However, after a while I realized I missed my watch. I encouraged my wife to go on, and I went back to see if I could find my watch.Luckily, I found it right off the road. My wife and son won first place in their age groups. I didn’t receive any place in my age group, but the race organizers gave me a special prize, which was given to the most injured runner in the race.
