1 A high school student hasn’t decided whether to study in UCAS or other universities after graduation. He asks you information about UCAS before making the final decision.
A: Hello！Are you studying in UCAS?
B: Yes! What is wrong?
A: I just graduated from high school. And I want to know some information about UCAS.
B: What do you want to know?
A: Firstly, I hear that UCAS starts to recruit college students this year. How many does it prepare to recruit?
B: About 300 from all country, but only several provinces have the enrollments.
A: What? Could I have the chance, and I come from bejing.
B: It is lucky. Beijing has some enrollments.
A: Good! Could you talk about the rank of UCAS?
B: That’s a good question! Because it never recruited college students, it’s difficult to define the rank using the traditional rules.
A: Then how could I know UCAS strength without the rank?
B: That’s easy. In China, there is no university stronger than UCA S about science research. If you want to become a scientist, UCAS is the best choice.
A: Sounds good. But I have not decided whether to become a scientist or not. What about others? Could I get good jots after graduation?
B: It’s difficult to give you an exact answer. Because UCAS hasn’t college students before, any answers are not scientific.
A: I know. According to your introduction, UCAS is more competitive in science research, but uncertainty in jobs. Is it right?
B: yes! But UCAS is still exciting, you will have the most famous scientists for teachers.
A: I hear every students will have an academician mentor, really?
B: Sure! This is very appealing. After graduation, you may become his postgraduate directly.
A：I would carefully consider before making the final decision.
B: Yes! The decision will change your life, and you must consider all factors.
A: Thanks for your help. I will give you an answer after making the decision.
B: It’s my pleasure.
2 Some student societies are recruiting new members. You and your classmate are discussing which one to join.
A:Hello, **. What are you going to do?
B: I will go to get some applications. I want to join the student societies.
A: Sounds good. I am also interesting in societies. And which one do you want to join?
B: Er… I have not decided. I just prepare to have a look. Do you have any suggestions?
A: What’s your purpose to join student societies?
B:many aspects. The most important aspects are to expand my social circle and develop my interesting.
A: it’s easy to satisfy. Will you join some students societies about sports? You are so interesting in sports!
B: Of course! I just prepare to apply for sports societies. Such as basketball ~, pingpang ball ~, football ~ and so on.
A: Even though there are many kinds of sports societies, I think you should not join too many. Just choosing one or two is better.
B: I know. What about you? Will you choose them?
A:I don’t like sports too much. I will choose societies associated with my majoring or career planning.
B: could you talk about them detailly？
A: Yes！Such as Green Society and Organization Department. The former is committed to protect environment. Its members will often attend some activities to advocate and teach people how to protect our environment. The latter will often organize many activities, which will promote my ability of organization.
B:It’s wonderful. But both of them will make you very busy.
A: Yes! I like that feeling and I will persist in doing them.
B: I agree. No matter what kind of societies to join, we should never give up.
A: OK! Let’s go to get the applications together.
B: yeah! By the way we could get some information about the interview. I hear that some societies are very difficult to join.
A: Yes! You’re right. We must prepare for the interviews seriously.
B:OK! Let’s go.
3. You insist that one should eat breakfast to keep healthy, but your classmate thinks that it’s not necessary at all.
A: Hello, What are you doing?
B: I am going to have some breakfast. What about you?
A: Oh, I want to continue to sleep. I feel quite tired.
B: Why not have breakfast with me? The breakfast really keeps me in good condition. And it will help us keeping healthy.
A: I am very glad to .But I cannot keep it up. There is a big question.
B: Oh, It depends on you. You should make a plan and keep a balance. Most important, you should stick to it.
A: It sounds good. How long have you insisted?
B: More than 5 months.
A: Oh, You are great. But I don’t want to eat any things in the morning. So I am glad to take more rest for keeping healthy.
B: Oh, I do not agree with you. Experts believe that the healthy ways to keep a good condition are: getting up early and making sure some breakfast.
A: But the effect is not very obvious by eating breakfast alone.
B: The point is whether you can keep it up. The best way to make a balance keeping fit is getting into a habit of regular eating.
A:sounds good! But I think breakfast is not so important, I can eat more in other meals.
B: It’s wrong. Experts discovered that the men who skipped breakfast had a 27%
higher risk of heart attack or death from heart disease than those who honored the morning meal.
A: Ok, you are right. I should have some breakfast.
B: Good, Get up and let’s go!

A: I cannot too. It's just a test. Relax yourself. How did you do on the test?
B: Not well. I always feel very nervous when I was taking a test and forgot all the things I went over. What do you think I should do?
A: Well, English is a "paper tiger". Its natural enemy is adequate practice.
B: I did practice a lot, like doing lots of reading comprehension exercises every day. A: Well, I suggest that every day you do some reading aloud, and try to speak more. That will help develop your sense of the language, which is essential for English learning.
B: I see. I'll try.
A: Oh, I have a good idea!
B: What's that?
A: I can give you a dictation and you give me the dictation later so that we can help each other and enjoy the process of study!
B: Sounds great!
A: Ok. Let’s start now!
B: Ok. Let’s try.

英语口语情景对话，职场常用英语句型大盘点 外企职员必备的一项基本技能。很多员工头疼自己的英文过不了关，一碰到要用英文进行文书或是要和老外进行交流就六神无主，今天小编特地为大家搜罗了一些经典且常用的句型，大家不妨做个有心人收藏着，莫到用时方恨少呢！ 1. I am writing to confirm /enquire/inform you… 我写信时要确认/询问/通知你… 2. I am writing to follow up on our earlier decision on the marketing campaign in Q2. 我写信来追踪我们之前对于第二季度营销活动的决定。 3. With reference to our telephone conversation today… 关于我们今天在电话中的谈话... 4. In my previous e-mail on October 5… 先前在10月5日所写的信… 5. As I mentioned earlier about… 如我先前所提及关于… 6. As indicated in my previous e-mail… 如我在先前的信中所提出… 7. As we discussed on the phone… 如我们上次在电话中的讨论…
8. From our decision at the previous meeting… 如我们在上次会议中的决定… 9. As you requested/per your requirement… 按照你的要求… 10.In reply to your e-mail dated April 1，we decided… 回答你在4月1日写的信，我们决定… 今天我们要讲的习惯用语都是以thin这个单词为主。Thin就是瘦，或者是很薄。要是人们有选择的话，恐怕许多人都喜欢瘦一点，而不愿意太胖。但是，今天我们要讲的前两个习惯用语都包含消极的意思。 1. wear thin 打折扣;逐渐消失 Wear在这里的意思是某一样东西在一段时间里，它的功能和价值在逐步降低，也就是中文里说的损耗。这可以指具体的东西，也可以用在其他方面。举例来说吧。 例句-1：Your patience with another person may wear thinif he keeps doing something you don't like. 要是一个人老是做你不喜欢的事，那你对他就会越来越没有耐心。 我们再来举一个例子。要是一个人问你借钱，他保证在一个月后还给你。但是，到了时候他没有还。而且还不断地找借口，拖延不还。过了半年，你对他实在没有耐心了，于是你对他说： 例句-2：Joe, remember that money you borrowed six months ago. You told me you'd pay it back in 30 days. But you keep finding reasons not to return it. Now I really need it back, and I must say that all your excuses for delay are beginning to wear thin.
