year since i’ve seen my family
oh such a long time
you should visit them more especially
your parents
you know my family lives in the suburbs
who are very far from my workplace

very difficult to visit my parents
your whole extended family is staying
over it at your house

science
dialogue one
how are things with you
i’m pretty busy with school work i’m
working on a research paper on radiation
wow you have chosen a difficult topic
yes but if i finish this research
project i will be appreciated and get a
master of science degree
and you want to be a scientist
but it’s a big challenge right
i know it is very hard to do and i enjoy
challenges
you know science is complicated but that
is the general law of the universe
i don’t understand what you mean
the rules of man change all the time
while the rules of science do not
i see but what’s so interesting about
that
it’s interesting thanks to science
things change every day
i love the idea of making a difference
in the world
that’s a noble thought
actually i also quite enjoy playing with
technology
that seems to be the real reason
we recently purchased a new telescope
and an infrared camera
great can i see those
sure just let me know when now i have to
go to class
okay see you
dialog 2.
[Applause]
i just read an article about cloning i
think it’s a crazy idea
i think so
i think it should be against the law for
scientists to do that
but there is one country that allows it
can you believe it some doctors said
that they had a cloned a baby
it should be science fiction not in real
life
they have already cloned vegetables and
animals
as you know
dolly the sheep is an example of that
yes but she died at a young age
they performed an autopsy on her and
discovered that her organs had aged
quicker than usual
with the development of science soon we
will also have a copy
please stop i wouldn’t even want to
think about it
talking about the weather
dialogue one
in traffic like this i don’t like
driving
especially in this rainy weather
you think it’s bad what’s better in
texas with a little rain like this
isn’t the weather in texas usually hot
and dry
the weather there is very varied
in the summer it’s so hot you can even
fry an egg on the street
in winter it snows in some places
well you never see pictures of skiing
cowboys
funny
[Music]
dialogue too
bro
this is a narrow road pay attention i
don’t want us to have an accident
all right
will we get to woo yi mountain before
tonight
i don’t know but i hope to arrive before
midnight
so let’s rent a hotel to stay in tonight
sure
looks like the weather isn’t going to
clear up
and until i hear the weather report i
won’t go camping in the woods
dialogue 3
what’s the weather like today oh my it’s
really cold
why not now is november
a few days ago the weather was sunny and
cool
it’s suddenly freezing like january
the weather forecaster said there would
be a chance of snow
really in this early november
it occurred previously
just two days ago i was still wearing
shorts
yeah because fall weather is often
erotic
well
i’d better wear something warmer
than you should
eleven
animals
dialogue one
where are you going
i’m going to the vet with my cat
oh what’s wrong with your pet
not so serious my cat was scratched by
another cat
is it hurt
oh no
he only has a few minor wounds on his
face
hope they are not infected
that is why i’m taking him to the
veterinarian
he grew up fast i still remember when he
was a lovely little cat
he’s not like that anymore
he sounds like a threat
yeah that’s right
now he’s a naughty cat
without a doubt
and good luck with the vet please keep
me updated on what happens
i will see ya
catch you later
[Music]
dialogue two
what is that animal
oh it’s a kangaroo
this is the first time hearing of this
kind
it is the australian animal emblem and
only australia has it
are you sure it’s only australia
we’ve got one right here
because it’s a zoo
dialogue three
[Music]
wow adorable dog when did you buy it
i have had him since he was a puppy and
he is six years old now he is an alaskan
does he eat a lot
yes all the time i always go to the pet
shop to buy him more food
he likes to eat meat and canned dog food
i wish i lived in a house with a lot of
space
i want a dog like him
actually we got him as a guard dog
rather than a pet
calamities and pollution
dialogue one
[Music]
have you seen the latest news
the government has ordered lockdown
because of the covid 19 outbreak
what a calamity
exactly it’s a calamity
and we’ll have to work from home
right
when we work remotely we have more time
for our families
but this is very suffocating we will
have to stay at home and not go anywhere
this is terrible
dialogue too
[Music]
look at that river
this river looks so dirty
yeah you won’t believe it we used to
swim here
[Music]
really
yup but now it looks terrible dirty and
stinks
why is this river polluted
a large amount of dangerous waste
chemicals from factories are discharged
daily
lead to water pollution
but we need factories
yes but the factories also have their
own way to reduce water pollution
what exactly occurred here
some of the investors wanted to save
costs so they didn’t install sewage
treatment systems most of this is dumped
directly into rivers
and it’s too late now right
although the company owners were
arrested the river is ruined
we can clean it
maybe but that would cost a lot of money
and time
true
so now we have to live next to this
polluted river
thirteen housework
dialogue one
[Music]
you cannot watch tv right now
why not this is my preferred program
you haven’t finished the dishes yet
what’s the big deal they have time to

disgusting

favorite
show today i cleaned the toilet you were
tasked with cleaning the kitchen

mess

dirty clothes are left on the dining
table

the sofa
darling i just got there
first let me rest a bit

messy house like this

dialog 3.
[Applause]

for this sunday

i’ll be very busy on sunday
i’ve got lots of housework to do
i have to do the laundry tidy up the
room
vacuum the floor and wash the dishes
it’s just housework you can do it later
this is not a big deal
oh you don’t know i live with my sister
in the apartment we share the household
duties
and she sure would get angry at me if
she were to come home and find out i’ve
not done anything
oh i see
anyway see you another day when you have
free time
- functions and malfunctions
dialog one
i think your television has a problem
the image is not very sharp you may have
to fix it that’s not possible
i tried to get it all day it just wasn’t
good
maybe you should have it repaired
the picture in will be better and we can
enjoy our favorite show
we just fixed it yesterday
really
but why does the picture still look this
bad who fixed it
he’s an assistant at a tv shop and he’s
only been here for two days
that’s bad it doesn’t sound very
trustworthy you should demand a refund
i wish i could but it’s a little
complicated
okay you shouldn’t go back there again
dialogue 2
jenny do you hear anything
your car is making a very weird noise
it sounds like this
lug
oh no
that’s bad
i think it’s coming from the engine i’ll
pull over
you should do that
we can be sure that everything is not
dangerous
alright let’s see
hmm
first let’s pop the hood
look there’s something in this
is that a tennis ball why is it here
that’s strange maybe it’s billy’s toy
great we found the cause now just take
it out and start the
car okay let’s get in the car
oh
unbelievable
what’s wrong
i can’t start the car
that’s weird
we should call the mechanic and tell
them to come here
so i suppose we could simply put the
tennis ball back in and see if it works
again
dialog 3
fine i’m sick of it what’s happened
something is wrong with my washing
machine
tell me the problem
for some reason the water won’t drain
that’s the only problem with it
everything else is working fine
all right is there a warranty
yeah but what good does that do now
you can call the store and they will
send a technician to repair or replace
if necessary
i know but now my clothes are very wet
i really need it for the party tonight
what time does the party take place
within two hours
don’t worry go to the public laundromat
you have time if you hurry
