Conversation One
W:Oh, come on, Cain. Why not come and work out gently on the tennis court ? You can’t keep working so hard at the office.
M:No,I don’t think I can today, Lily. I’m expecting all these phone calls I have to be in the office anyway to go through those files from the boss.
W:Oh, come on, Cain. It”s Saturday. You can go through those files perfectly well at home and if people can’t get you at the office, they’ll obviously try to phone you at home.
M:Well, there you are. How can I play tennis with you if people are going to phone me ?
W:Your wife can take the calls and messages and so on and you can phone back.
M:Why don’t you ask Lucy to play with you ? Isn’t she your usual opponent ? And she’s got much nicer legs than me.
W:No,Lucy can’t play… she’s hurt her shoulder and Bruce is up in Salt Lake City for the weekend. So it just has to be you.
M:Look, Lily,I’ll happily go for a short run with you around the park. I could probably do with the exercise. But a game of tennis always takes a couple of hours and I just can’t drop everything so easily.
W:Okay,Cain. Just don’t ask me to do you any favors.
M:Oh, Lily! If you’re going to be like that then, I’ll play. I think I know how …

Conversation Two
M:Good morning, Cindy. Sleep well ? I can never sleep in a strange bed.
W:Oh, I slept like a baby! I’m really impressed with this hotel.
M:Well, the Shangri-la is about the best hotel in Shanghai, you know.
W:It’s great. After you left me last night,I went along the road at the front of the hotel, you know, just around the corner from the taxi rank. I found this wonderful American pub which served great beer and excellent food.
M:Oh, I know the place you mean―the Hard Rock Cafe. It’s just by that fast food restaurant. There’s usually a girl singer or a rock band on stage at the Hard Rock.
W:Yeah, that’s the place. After I’d eaten I didn’t feel like going directly up to my room, so I went to the revolving bar on the roof of the hotel. You get a tremendous view up there.
M:I’m afraid that I can’t really afford to go to roof bars and so on . They are very expensive for ordinary Chinese people .
