Small talk Dialogue 1 A: Hi, there, I’m steve Saunders. What’s your name? B: I’m Paul Whitney. Isn’t this convention great? A:Yes, it is, better than I expected it would be.

A: I’m from Long Island, New York. What about yourself? B: I’m from the other side of coast, Los Angeles. A: Wow, I really like California...the weather there is much better than the east coast. B: Have you been to California? A: Just once. Quite a few years ago we took the kids to Disneyland on our vacation. They had a blast. B: How many kids do you have? A: Two, a boy and a girl. They are already grown now. B: Well, California has changed over the last little while. You should come back out sometime. Dialogue 2 A: Can I get you something to drink? B: No, that’s ok, I already have a coke. Why don’t you have a seat? You look like you’ve been on your feet all day. A: I guess I could take a break. So, how do you like Denver? B: It’s great! The mountains here are beautiful, and the skiing is spectacular. Have you been here for a long time? A: About six years... B: What do you do for a living? A: I manage one of the ski lodges. It’s a great job, I can spend a lot of my time outdoors, and I also get to ski for free all season. B: Wow, talk about job perks! That’s great. I would like to do something exciting like that. But I am only an accountant. Not too much excitement there, huh? A: That’s okay. If it weren’t for you accountants, nobody would have the money to go skiing! 相关资料 |
