M: Hello. How are you today?

W: Not so good. My leg's playing me up, awful pains in my leg and my toothache!

M: Oh, dear! I've got toothache too and the dentist says he simply can't see me before next week. But what gets me is my headache.

W: I know what you mean, but at least you can do the garden. I can't even do that with my back, the doctor says I mustn't lift or bend.

M: You poor thing. There's nothing worse than back trouble. But I don't do much in the garden now because I've hurt my arm. It's really painful.

W: Like my ankle. It's all swollen up.

I flew to New York to take care of some business with Mr. Smith. But as soon as I arrived, I got sick, and could not meet with him. I had to call our appointment off. Then when I felt better I thought about visiting him at his home, but he lived too far away. I tried to telephone him during office hours, but he was busy. His secretary said that Mr. Smith would call me back, but he didn't. I gave up trying to make a new appointment because it would take more time and efforts than I wanted to spend.

A few days later, I saw a man on the street who looked like Mr. Smith, and I called out to him. It was someone else. When I returned to my hotel that day, I found a message which said that Mr. Smith had gone out of town on some sudden unexpected business. I was sorry that I had missed seeing him, but I was really enjoying my sightseeing in New York.



M: Good afternoon, madam. Is anyone taking care of you?
W: No, not yet. Could you show me that overcoat in the middle?
M: Certainly. What color, black or silver grey?
W: Silver grey, please. I like the color.
M: You’ve got a good eye. Silver grey suits you.
W: Is it 100% wool?
M: Of course. It’s 100% new wool. Why not try it on?
W: OK! Mm…I think it fits me.
M: It fits you very well. It looks good on you, madam.
W: How much it it?
M: It is just $ 299. But we can take 10% off if you buy it today.
W: Well, it’s still very expensive.

I’m glad that you’ve chosen chemistry. I’d like to use a few minutes to talk about lab rules. First, you can’t bring any food or drink into the lab. Second, don’t use the lab without your teacher. Third, please don’t touch anything in the cupboards or on the shelves. Never taste anything in the bottles and the containers. When doing experiments, listen to your teacher attentively. The above should all be of great importance to you. Please obey the rules and enjoy the hours you spend here.

W: Good evening. Sir. Is this Mr. Charles Philips?
M: Yes, it is.
W: Well Mr. Philips, this evening I’m calling to offer you a special discount on…
M: Ah, no, let me guess. You want to sell me a new car or a great deal on airfare to Hawaii, right? Or, you want to offer me an unbelievable bargain on dance lessons?
W: No, no, actually… Mr. Jones. Oh, sorry. That was the last guy. Uh, we want to offer you a free membership to our sports club downtown at the low price of $ 39.95…
M: Thirty-nine dollars ninety-five cents? I thought that you said free! Uh, listen. I’m not interested.

M: Ah, man. Ah, great.
W: Have a nice evening, Mr. Williams.

This is the BBC in London. Here is the news at ten.
South Korea has the most effective education system of the world’s richest countries, with Japan in second place and the United Sates and Germany near the bottom, a United Nations study said Tuesday.
The ranking provides a comparison of the developed world.
The study is based not on how many students reach what level of education, but on testing what pupils actually know and what they are able to do, including their abilities in reading, math and science.
Germany, with its strong educational tradition, occupies the 19th place out of 24 nations, Just behind the United States in 18th place.
An American government official said,“Our schools are simply not good enough and they don’t compare will with systems in other countries.”
“It is clear that educational disadvantage is born not as school but in the home, ”said the report.“Learning begins at birth and is encouraged by a loving, stimulating environment.”
