Can you be ready by noon? 　　W：No problem． 　　M：Hi, Jane．It’s nice to see you again．I heard that you went to the US during the vacation． 　　W：Yes, I went to New York to attend a summer course in English． 　　M：Wow, You were lucky．How long did you stay there? 　　W：About 50 days．I went there on July 5th and came back on August 25th． 　　M：How about the course? 　　W：The course was very good．The teachers were nice．They taught us to listen, speak, read and write in English, but it was mostly speaking．One interesting thing I found was that the American classes are different from our classes here because they are very free．You can sit anywhere you like in the classroom．You can ask the teacher questions at any time during the class, and you are welcome to share your ideas with the class．I really liked this kind of class． 　　M：How interesting! Maybe our teacher should try that． 　　M：So how do you like our city? 　　W：Oh, I love it－it’s so exciting．Don’t you agree? 　　M：Yes, it is exciting…but it’s noisy and dirty for me． 　　W：What do you think of the sites? 　　M：Oh, they are amazing－especially the skyscrapers． 　　W：I prefer the monuments．I think the Statue of Liberty is beautiful． 　　M：Yes, it is．OK, now what’s your opinion of transport in the city? 　　W：At the moment we’re using taxis．They are not too bad． 　　M：Well, they are very expensive． 　　W：What about the subway? 　　M：Oh, I hate it．We had a ride on it yesterday－it was terribly dirty． 　　W：Oh, I think it’s all right．Anyway, it’s very cheap． 　　M：Ok, can you tell me where you are staying? 　　W：Hang on; the address is in my bag…here…103 East 49th Street．The Hotel Metropolitan． 　　M：Do you like it? 　　W：Oh no, I think it’s awful－I prefer older hotels． 　　M：Well I like it． 　　W：That’s great．And when are you returning to England? 　　M：We’re flying back on Saturday． 　　W：Well, enjoy the rest of your stay． 　　Thank you for buying this do-it-yourself chair．Before you take it away, I’d like to show you how to put the different parts together．Now the first step is to connect the four legs with these short pieces．Do not fix the seat to the legs before that, otherwise you will not be able to put in the short pieces between the legs．Now we come to the second step．Fix the seat to the legs, but do not fix it too tight yet．After that you can fix the back to the seat and the top piece to the back．Now the last step is to strike the different parts tightly into each other with a hammer or any other heavy thing, and you can paint it to any color you like．Of course you have to dry the paint for two or three days before sitting on the chair． 　　M：Excuse me．Have you been waiting long? 　　W：About ten minutes． 　　M：Did you notice whether the No．7 bus has gone by? 　　W：Not while I was standing here．I’m waiting for the No．7 myself． 　　M：Good．Hot day, isn’t it? 　　W：Yes, it is．I wish that it would rain and cool off． 　　M：Me too．This is unusual for March．I don’t remember it’s ever been so hot and dry in March before． 　　W：You were born in Florida then． 　　M：No．I was born in New York．But I’ve lived here for ten years now． 　　W：My mother and I have just moved here from Indiana． 　　M：Pretty cold in Indiana, isn’t it? 　　W：Yes．That’s why we moved．But we didn’t know that it would be so hot here．We should have gone to California．Do you think we’ve missed the bus?I’ve been here for 20 minutes already． 　　M：Don’t worry．It never comes exactly on the half hour like it should． 　　Air travel has two advantages over train travel．First, it can save much time．For example, we can fly from Qingdao to Guangzhou in just 3 hours, but by train we have to spend 38 hours or more．Second, air travel is more comfortable because the plane flies so smoothly that we can rest well during the trip, while the train is crowded sometimes and passengers have to sit a long time, which makes them tired．But train travel also has its own advantages．For example, traveling by train costs only about 250 yuan while traveling by air will take over 900 yuan．Besides this, through the train’s window, we can enjoy the view of many big cities, mountains and the wild．
