Dear Peter，
I’m writing to invite you to attend our English corner, which will be held in Cuihu Park this Sunday morning. Since you’re not familiar with our city, I’ll show you the way.
When you come out of your hotel, go straight along the road and turn right on the first corner. You will see a hospital on your left. Then walk along the road towards north, and you can find a restaurant. On the opposite is just Cuihu Park. You are expected to arrive at the main gate before 9 o’clock. I’m sure you can find us easily.
Looking forward to your coming.
Yours, Li Hua

M: Now, what seems to be the trouble, Mrs. Stephens?
W: I’ve been very weak lately, and last night I had some chest pain. (Text 2)
M: If you’d like to go there for dinner this evening, I’ll call the restaurant. W: I’d like to, but I promised my brother I’d help him with his English. (Text 3)
W: Hello, Mr. Jacobs. This is Jane Ford, Mr. Smith’s secretary. I’m calling to make sure you remember about your meeting with him today at two o’clock. M: Thank you for calling. I will be there on time. (Text 4)
W: I’d like to have a word with you if you don’t mind. M: Not at all.
W: It’s about the morning tea break. Now it’s at 10:30 and my suggestion is to change it to 10:00. Ten-thirty is just too close to lunchtime. M: Right, I agree with you. (Text 5)
M: Could I possibly leave class early today?
W: I’m afraid not. We’re going to have a dictation before class is dismissed.
M: Oh, well … the reason is that I have an appointment with the dentist. I have a terrible toothache. W: Well, in that case, just go ahead. (Text 6)
W: Good morning, sir. How are you? M: Fine, thank you. How about you? W: I’m fine too.
M: Can I have a seat?
W: Please do. How can I help you?
M: I want to ask about the document I sent last Tuesday. W: Just a moment. Let me look it up first.
M: Thank you.
W: Well, your document is being checked by the director. We’ll tell you the result by next Monday. M: Should I come here again next week?
W: No, we will inform you by phone as soon as we have the result. M: Do you have my phone number? W: Yes, we have it here. M: Thank you. (Text 7)
M: Hi! Would you like some help?
W: Well, I’m looking for something I saw at a friend’s house yesterday. He said he bought it here. M: What’s that?
W: It’s a bright metal shelf, almost a meter long and half a meter wide, which I could attach to a refrigerator. M: You’re in the right department. But we don’t have it in stock now. W: Oh, that’s too bad. Are you going to be getting more?
M: They are on order. But I should warn you that the price has gone up. They were $17.50, but the new ones will be almost three dollars more. Drop in next week. We should have them by then. W: OK. I’ll be back. (Text 8)
W: David, what do you think the most obvious purpose of advertising is?
M: In my opinion, the main purpose of advertising is to inform the consumer of available services. That is to tell the information of the product to the consumer. W: I think so, too. And the second purpose?
M: I think the second purpose is to sell the product.
W: Yes, and to the manufacturers the second purpose might be more important. They try to persuade
customers to buy the product by creating a desire for it.
M: But in general, many purchases are carefully thought out. People usually consider the economy and convenience most when they are buying a product. At other times, the reasons behind a purchase may not be clear to a consumer.
W: Yes, consumers may be influenced by an advertisement on TV showing some sports heroes using the product. They may want to copy their heroes by using the product and so they choose it.
M: You’re quite right. I’m always keeping an eye on my favorite movie stars. I copy their lifestyles all the time. (Text 9)
M: Mrs. Williams, I’d be grateful if you could just tell me a bit about yourself. Have you been swimming long?
W: No, not long at all. I started originally to get in shape again after my youngest child was born. That was five years ago. I only started exercising properly when I realized how much I was enjoying it. M: So when did you start taking it seriously?
W: I suppose I started taking it seriously about three years ago. I joined the swimming club then. M: And now, how often do you practice?
W: Every day in the summer and autumn; every other day in the winter and spring. But I can’t go at a regular time as I have to look after my four children.
M: And what does your husband think of it?
W: Oh, he thinks it’s wonderful. He is proud of me for being on the national team and winning prizes. M: And how many prizes have you won?
W: Three so far, all in the last year. Two were individual medals and one was a team cup. M: Well, I hope there will be more today. Thank you very much, Mrs. Williams. (Text 10)
My name’s Randall Davis and I’m originally from Indiana, in the United States. I moved to France at the age of 19, and later returned to the United States, where I attended Brigham Young University in the 1990s. I majored in Spanish education. After graduation, my wife and I moved to Spain where we lived for eight years. Now, I work back in the States in Utah.
However, my greatest interests are my family. Years ago, I wanted to make something of myself in my profession…you know…get ahead in life. However, I realized that the most important things in life are the ones within the walls of my own home, and today, I try to put them first.
Therefore, I enjoy spending time with my family. I have four children, and we go hiking and camping together, usually in Utah. On our hikes, we often talk about life, and I tell stories or share personal experiences.
Now, this doesn’t mean we don’t have problems; all families face challenges in their lives, and our family is no exception. However, we try to talk openly about our problems, and we try to solve our problems together. Building a strong family takes time, but it is worth the effort.
