Conversation 1
Li:What a wonderful view! This is such a great city!Do you ever get tired of living in London,
Andy?
A;"When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life, for there is in London all that life can afford"
Li:That's a quotation by Samuel Johnson, isn't it?
A:Correct,so do you have any plans when you finish at Oxford?
Li: I've got another year to go and then I suppose I'll go back home.
A; And you will find a job?
Li:I
think
I
have
to
do
my
Master's
before
I
look
for
work.But
I
must
admit
London
is
very
special.Do you think you would ever leave London?
A:Sure, I'd love to come to china one day, and I like traveling. But i think I'll always come back
here.
Li:Well, your roots are here and there are so many opportunities.
A;But have you ever thought of living in London for a year or two?
Li:Yes, but what could I do here? I had planned to become a teacher.But i have often thought if
there was a job i could do here in publishing,maybe as an editor, I'll go for it.
A:That's sounds like a great idea.I think that would really suit you
Li:Maybe I should update my CV and send it to one or two publisher.
A:Don't make it look too good
Li:Why not?
A;Well,if you enjoy working with London Time Off, we don't want you working with anyone else
Li:Oh, working with you and Joe it's great fun and really interesting. I couldn't think of a better
way to find out about a city
A;So maybe you should think about applying for a job with us
Li:But do you think I'd stand a chance(
有可能,有希?/p>
)?I mean, I'm not sure if Joe likes me
A:Don't even think about it!Joe is very straight talking and I promise you that you'd know if he
didn't like you.
Li:Perhaps we should both update our CVs and look for jobs together
A:Hey,right!That would be fun.
李:什么是美好的景色!这是这样一个伟大的城市!你有没有厌倦过伦敦的生活,安迪?/p>
当一个人厌倦了伦敦,他就厌倦了生活,因为在伦敦,所有的生活都能承受
李:那是约翰逊塞缪尔的语录,不是吗?
答:对,你在牛津结束的时候有什么计划吗?/p>
李:我还有一年要走,我想我会回家?/p>
你会找到一份工作吗?/p>
李:我想我要做我的主人的工作,但我必须承认,
伦敦是非常特殊的?/p>
你认为你会离开伦敦
吗?
当然,我喜欢到中国来,有一天,我喜欢旅行。但我想我会永远回到这里?/p>
李:嗯,你的根在这里,有很多机会?/p>
