Unit 4Warm Up1. My family is a little unusual. Some people might even say we’re nuts.2. My mother is extreme when it comes to neatness. She can’t stand to see even a speck of dust in the house.3. Mom is really strict with us when it comes to household chores. Every day, we have to do a couple of hours of chores to keep things neat.4. My father loves to barbecue. He’s definitely a fanatic. He can’t live without his barbecue grill.5. One time, I accidentally broke Dad’s grill. He comp letely freaked out. He was so upset, he couldn’t even wait a day to buy another one.6. My sister, Alicia, is a vegan. She not only avoids meat, but also any animal products, like milk and eggs.7. Sometimes Alicia and Dad argue because they have opposite interests. She’s as devoted to her vegetarianism as he is to his barbecuing.8. Some of my other relatives are a little strange, too. I’ve got an aunt who thinks she can see the future and a cousin who does four hours of bodybuilding exercises every day!9. My family might be a little irritating to some people, but they don’t bother me much. After all, they’re the only family I’ve got.1. My sister is a really strict vegan. It’s not for religious or health reasons. It’s just she’s just a little nuts. Every time she comes over for a family dinner we have to make a special dish just for her. And if, like, the fork we’ve used to serve some meat even touches her plate for a split second, she freaks out and has to get another plate. Recently, she started this new thing where she can’t even eat any vegetables that are cooked. They have to be raw. And she put her cat on a vegan diet, too. The poor thing only eats vegetables. Every time I go over to her place, the cat looks at me with these sad eyes, like, “Meat … please?”2. My cousin Pat is a professional clown. He goes by the name Patty Cakes. He gets hired to do special events like kids’ birthday parties. The thing about Pat is that he just can’t stop being a clown even when he’s not working. He’ll show up at his friend’s house and start making balloon hats for everyone. And then there’s his pet duck, Phoebe. Pat uses Phoebe in his clown act, but sometimes he doesn’t have time to take her home after work, so he just brings her along wherever he’s going. It’s just so stra nge to see Pat walk in somewhere with Phoebe following behind him wearing a diaper.3. My Aunt Samantha collects dolls. She’s a real fanatic. Most people have hobbies, you know, like sports or music or movies, but Aunt Samantha spends all her money on dolls. She has one room in her apartment completely devoted to Barbie dolls. I mean, the whole room is wall-to-wall Barbies! She’s got over a thousand of them lined up on shelves from floor to ceiling. The dolls are all in perfect condition. She stores them in their boxes and never takes them out. It’s kind of scary, actually. When you walk into that room, you just feel surrounded by them. It’s like they’re all watching you or something.4. My brother Andrew is really into TV and movies and, um ... How can I put this nicely? He can get pretty extreme about it. He’s always pretending to be a character from a movie or TV show. Now, when he was twelve or thirteen, he used to watch the TV show Star Trek all the time, and he’d go around talking exactly like Mr. Spock. Like if I’d say, “Andrew, get out of my room. I’m studying. You’re so irritating.” And he’d say, “Irritating? Ah, yes, one of your earthling emotions.” Stuff like that, a line right out of Star Trek. Now, sometimes, it’s funny. Like now he’s doing Harry Potter voices. But we worry about him a lot. I mean, does he even know who he is? He’s always acting like someone else.Real World ListeningLydia: OK, Greg, I got the wedding invitations back from the printers. Let’s do this!Greg: OK, I’m ready.Lydia: Got your list?Greg: Yeah, I just have a short list, though. Just my parents, and my brother Tim, and his wife, and my sister Tanya, and Jamie, my friend from college, and that’s about it. I can’t think of anyone else that I really want to invite.Lydia: Greg, that’s like, what, ten people? Are you joking? This is our wedding. Greg: Well, I guess we could invite my mom’s cousin Abigail. She lives nearby, but I don’t know her very well, and she’s kind of crazy. She has, like, fifteen cats.Lydia: Greg, if she’s family, you should invite her.Greg: I guess.Lydia: So, including your mom’s cousin Abigail, you’ve now got a grand total of eleven guests. That just isn’t enough to fill up a rec eption room.Greg: Well, how many people are you inviting?Lydia: Um, let’s see. Here’s my list. I’ve got my brother and his wife.Greg: Right.Lydia: And her parents and relatives.Greg: You’re inviting your sister-in-law’s relatives, too?Lydia: Greg, this is a family event. Can’t leave anyone out.Greg: Can’t leave anyone out?Lydia: And then there’s my mother’s two brothers and their families.Greg: They’ll come all the way from San Francisco for this?Lydia: Oh, absolutely. And then my aunt Chia-Lin.Greg: I thought she lived in Shanghai.Lydia: She does, but she’ll come for the wedding.Greg: Really?Lydia: She wouldn’t miss it for the world, and besides, my mother would never forgive her if she didn’t come to my wedding.Greg: Ah.Lydia: And then my father will want to invite all his close friends from work.Greg: Wait a sec. Your father’s friends from work are coming? How many is that?Lydia: Oh, Greg, he’s in the restaurant business. He’s got so many friends. There must be like, one, two, three, eight people who work in the restaurantalone, and then the suppliers, and all of his regular big customers. Maybe eighty or ninety. Something like that.Greg: Eighty people!Lydia: There’s no way he wouldn’t invite all of them to his daughter’s wedding. It’d be an insult!Greg: But I thought we were just inviting family and close friends.Lydia: Believe me, my father’s business associates are like family.Greg: Wow! How many people are on that list there?Lydia: Oh, just a few. This is just like three or four hundred people. I’m trying to keep it small.。

Cilby: Yeah, I had an experience in a disaster once . It was a real life-changing experience. I was in the Alaska range climbing Mount Foraker with a couple of friends .near the end of our trip ,a storm moved in .the mountain just went crazy ! it was unbelievable . The rocks and snow started falling, and we were knocked 800 feet down the side of the mountain .I don’t know what happened after that because I passed out. Six hours later, I woke up .my shoulder was broken, and I was separated from my friends and was just in a kind of daze.It took me three days to get to the bottom of the mountain. I had to keep my eyes open and just ignore the pain .but I finally made it to safety .2.Sue: Once, I really thought it was all over for me. It was a Sunday morning. May eighteenth to exact. I was camping with Marty, a friend, and we were about fifteen miles north of Mt. St.Helens, and we were packing up our tent when boom, when it erupted. Within minutes, nearly every tree around us had been ripped out of the ground. I was blown into a deep hole left by one of the trees. I pulled myself out of the hole, but then ice chunks started failing from the sky!Marty had been hurt pretty badly by a failing tree, so I had to get help. I made him a little shelter and then walked the rest of the day to find help. It was really painful because I was knee-deep in ashes almost the whole way .That night, an emergency helicopter finally saw me. I was never so thankful in my life.3.Kubra: I’ll never forget the big earthquake in Turkey. It was the middle of the night, and I was sleeping, when I felt a sharp jolt. Bam. I sat up in bed like a bolt of lightning. The next thing, I knew ,I had fallen through the floor into a hole and things hitting my head and body. It wasn’t long before I realized that the building had collapsed, on top of me.I called for my parents, but nobody answered, so I tried to dig myself out. No luck. I was under too deep. There was nothing to do but wait for help. I felt very scared in the darkness, but I kept playing little games in my head and singing songs and thinking of things I wanted to do in the future. After ten hours, I heard someone call my name and saw a tiny light shine down on me. I was saved!。

It’s just she’s just a little nuts. Ever time she comes over for I family dinner we have to make a special dish just for her .And if ,like, the forks we’ve used to serve some meat even touches her plate for a split second, she freaks out and have to get another plate. Recently, she starts this new thing where she can’t even eat any vegetables. Every time I go over to her place, the cat looks at me with these sad eyes, lik e,” Meat…please?”2My cousin Pat is a professional clown. He goes by the name Patty Cakes. He gets hired to do special events like kids’ birthday parties. The thing about Pat is that he just can’t stop being a clown even when he’s not working. He’ll show up at his friend’s house and start making balloon hats for everyone. And then there’s his pet duck, Phoebe. Pat use Phoebe in his clown act, but sometimes he doesn’t have time to take her home after work, so he just brings her along wherever he’s going. It’s just so strange to see Pat walk in somewhere with Phoebe following behind him wearing a diaper.3My Aunt Samantha collects dolls .She’s a real fanatic .Most people have hobbies, you know, like sports or music or movies ,but Aunt Samantha spends all her money on dolls. She has one room in her apartment completely devoted to Barbies. I mean, the whole room is wall-to-wall Barbies! She’s got over a thousand of them lined upon shelves from floor to ceiling. The dolls are all in perfect condition. She stores them in their boxes and never takes them out .It’s kind of scary, actually .When you walk into that room ,you just feel surrounded by them .It’s like they’re all watching you or something.4My brother Andrew is really into TV and movies and, um…How can I put this nicely? He can get pretty extreme about it. He’s always pretending to be a character from a movies or TV show. Now, when he was twelve or thirteen, he used to watch the TV show Star Trek all the time, and he’d go around talking exactly like Mr. Spock. Like if I’d say. ‘Andrew, get out of my room .I’m studying .You’re so irritating.” Andrew he’d say, Irritating? Ah, yes, one of your earthling emotions.” Stuff like that, a line right out of Star Trek. Now, sometimes, it’s funny. Like now he’s doing Harry Potter voices .But we worry about him a lot .I mean, does he even know who he is? He’s always acting like someone else.Unit 5 DecisionsLong time no see! But you haven’t changed much.Sorry, I didn’t recognize you.What have you been up to after graduation?I hope to get together sometime next year.They are very close and often play basketball together.We’ve stayed in touch with each other after graduation .Do you really know him?Some people aren’t what they seem/look like.There’s more than him than meets the eye.In a long run, personality is more important than physical appearance.The performance you made last night was awesome.Just keep on doing what you’re doing and never mind what others say,It’s none of your business. Just leave me alone.If you ask me, I wouldn’t go by myself.If I were you, I’d say it’s a personal thing./it’s private.Don’t you think it’s time to make some changes now?Why not go to your teachers for help?You’d better look before you leap./You’d better be prudent.Her parents are open and fair with all their kids.There’s nothing difficult as long as we speak frankly and sincerely.She loves music and it seems that she can’t live without it.How can I put it/this nicely? It’s really hard to say.He has many strange habits. It’s really difficult to get along well with him.We all like to stay in touch with her because she is very kind and considerate.You’d better weigh the pros and cons before making any decision.It’s always difficult to make a sound decision.Three months afterward she came to a decision to work for another company.They held several hearings to invite different public opinions.I’ve been thinking about how to make few mistakes.Take your time and I don’t want to rush you for a decision.A:Honey, I’ve been thinking.B: Huh?A: I’ve been thinking .I think I’d like to go back to work.B: Really? Why?A: Well, the kids are growing up. Jenny is off to university, and Ted is going to be in high school next year.B: Uh huh, yeah, right?A: Well, I just don’t think I need to a stay-at-home mom anymore.B: But, but who’s going to make dinner and do the laundry, and who’s going to clean the house?A: I don’t know, honey, but we’ll figure it out . I’ve been weighing the pros and corns, and now it just seems like the best time to make a change.A: Hey, how’s it going, Frank?B: Oh, not too sure.A: Oh, what’s the problem?B: It’s not really a problem. It’s kinds of a good thing , I guess .A: You guess?B: Well, I applied for a job with a really good engineering firm a couple of months ago , and I talked to the boss yesterday.A: Yeah?B: And they want to hire me.A: That’s great news.B: Well, sort of .But the downside is the job’s in Texas. I would have to move. And they want me to start in six weeks.A: Ooh, Texas, That’s really far away. What are you leaning toward?B: At this point, I’m seriously considering accepting the offer. But I have until next week to let them know.3.A: Hey, Jamie, you look stressed out. What’s wrong?B: Oh, I have to choose my major thi s month, and I’m still undecided.A:I thought you were majoring in theater.

Y ou co uld be the next Sigmund Freud, the female version.B:I would, but I don’t know. I’m taking a really great physics class this semester, I totally love it.A: Then why not do physics?B: So I could be the next Albert Einstein, right? I don’t know about that, either. I kinda want to take some French classes. Yeah, that sounds good! Maybe I should major in French, then I can’t really take the physics. And I mean, theater still is a real fun.4A: What do you think about getting a puppy, Rick?B:A puppy? why would we do that?A: Well, I was at the supermarket today, and there was this guy with a box of Labrador puppies out front, and they are so cute.B: Yeah, of course, they are cute. Puppies are always cute. But they are messy, too.A:I know, but you should have seen them. Their little tails and their little faces.B: The problem with a puppy is that it eventually becomes dog, a big dog. What’s a big dog gonna do in our litter apartment?A: We will take it for walks .It will be great. C’mon.B:I don’t know. I will think about it. Why don’t we get a cat instead?Unit 6 Language1.

Mm, lemme see I know ‘mozzies’ are ‘mosquitoes’ and ‘tucker’ means ‘food’. And, of course, Australian English is called ‘Strine’.A: Not bad, mate! A few more trips down under and you will be an expert in Strine!2. A: So, how did you like Professor Lee’s class?B: Man, I don’t know.A: What do you mean?B: I mean, it’s hard to pick up what s he is saying.

Here is just different from yours, that’s all!B: Sure is .A: Don’t worry about it, though. You’ll get used to how she talks.B: Maybe, but I’m really having a hard time understanding her right now.A: Well, maybe you should just pay attention to what she writes on the board.

And action!B: Rhett, I only know that I love …A: Cut! Cut! Cut! Julia, you’ve got to work on your southern accent. You just don’t sound like Scarlet.B:I know, I know.

Cilby: Yeah, I had an experience in a disaster once . It was a real life-changing experience. I was in the Alaska range climbing Mount Foraker with a couple of friends .near the end of our trip ,a storm moved in .the mountain just went crazy ! it was unbelievable . The rocks and snow started falling, and we were knocked 800 feet down the side of the mountain .I don’t know what happened after that because I passed out. Six hours later, I woke up .my shoulder was broken, and I was separated from my friends and was just in a kind of daze.It took me three days to get to the bottom of the mountain. I had to keep my eyes open and just ignore the pain .but I finally made it to safety .2.Sue: Once, I really thought it was all over for me. It was a Sunday morning. May eighteenth to exact. I was camping with Marty, a friend, and we were about fifteen miles north of Mt. St.Helens, and we were packing up our tent when boom, when it erupted. Within minutes, nearly every tree around us had been ripped out of the ground. I was blown into a deep hole left by one of the trees. I pulled myself out of the hole, but then ice chunks started failing from the sky!Marty had been hurt pretty badly by a failing tree, so I had to get help. I made him a little shelter and then walked the rest of the day to find help. It was really painful because I was knee-deep in ashes almost the whole way .That night, an emergency helicopter finally saw me. I was never so thankful in my life.3.Kubra: I’ll never forget the big earthquake in Turkey. It was the middle of the night, and I was sleeping, when I felt a sharp jolt. Bam. I sat up in bed like a bolt of lightning. The next thing, I knew ,I had fallen through the floor into a hole and things hitting my head and body. It wasn’t long before I realized that the building had collapsed, on top of me.I called for my parents, but nobody answered, so I tried to dig myself out. No luck. I was under too deep. There was nothing to do but wait for help. I felt very scared in the darkness, but I kept playing little games in my head and singing songs and thinking of things I wanted to do in the future. After ten hours, I heard someone call my name and saw a tiny light shine down on me. I was saved!。

It’s just she’s just a little nuts. Ever time she comes over for I family dinner we have to make a special dish just for her .And if ,like, the forks we’ve used to serve some meat even touches her plate for a split second, she freaks out and have to get another plate. Recently, she starts this new thing where she can’t even eat any vegetables. Every time I go over to her place, the cat looks at me with these sad eyes, lik e,” Meat…please?”2My cousin Pat is a professional clown. He goes by the name Patty Cakes. He gets hired to do special events like kids’ birthday parties. The thing about Pat is that he just can’t stop being a clown even when he’s not working. He’ll show up at his friend’s house and start making balloon hats for everyone. And then there’s his pet duck, Phoebe. Pat use Phoebe in his clown act, but sometimes he doesn’t have time to take her home after work, so he just brings her along wherever he’s going. It’s just so strange to see Pat walk in somewhere with Phoebe following behind him wearing a diaper.3My Aunt Samantha collects dolls .She’s a real fanatic .Most people have hobbies, you know, like sports or music or movies ,but Aunt Samantha spends all her money on dolls. She has one room in her apartment completely devoted to Barbies. I mean, the whole room is wall-to-wall Barbies! She’s got over a thousand of them lined upon shelves from floor to ceiling. The dolls are all in perfect condition. She stores them in their boxes and never takes them out .It’s kind of scary, actually .When you walk into that room ,you just feel surrounded by them .It’s like they’re all watching you or something.4My brother Andrew is really into TV and movies and, um…How can I put this nicely? He can get pretty extreme about it. He’s always pretending to be a character from a movies or TV show. Now, when he was twelve or thirteen, he used to watch the TV show Star Trek all the time, and he’d go around talking exactly like Mr. Spock. Like if I’d say. ‘Andrew, get out of my room .I’m studying .You’re so irritating.” Andrew he’d say, Irritating? Ah, yes, one of your earthling emotions.” Stuff like that, a line right out of Star Trek. Now, sometimes, it’s funny. Like now he’s doing Harry Potter voices .But we worry about him a lot .I mean, does he even know who he is? He’s always acting like someone else.Unit 5 DecisionsLong time no see! But you haven’t changed much.Sorry, I didn’t recognize you.What have you been up to after graduation?I hope to get together sometime next year.They are very close and often play basketball together.We’ve stayed in touch with each other after graduation .Do you really know him?Some people aren’t what they seem/look like.There’s more than him than meets the eye.In a long run, personality is more important than physical appearance.The performance you made last night was awesome.Just keep on doing what you’re doing and never mind what others say,It’s none of your business. Just leave me alone.If you ask me, I wouldn’t go by myself.If I were you, I’d say it’s a personal thing./it’s private.Don’t you think it’s time to make some changes now?Why not go to your teachers for help?You’d better look before you leap./You’d better be prudent.Her parents are open and fair with all their kids.There’s nothing difficult as long as we speak frankly and sincerely.She loves music and it seems that she can’t live without it.How can I put it/this nicely? It’s really hard to say.He has many strange habits. It’s really difficult to get along well with him.We all like to stay in touch with her because she is very kind and considerate.You’d better weigh the pros and cons before making any decision.It’s always difficult to make a sound decision.Three months afterward she came to a decision to work for another company.They held several hearings to invite different public opinions.I’ve been thinking about how to make few mistakes.Take your time and I don’t want to rush you for a decision.A:Honey, I’ve been thinking.B: Huh?A: I’ve been thinking .I think I’d like to go back to work.B: Really? Why?A: Well, the kids are growing up. Jenny is off to university, and Ted is going to be in high school next year.B: Uh huh, yeah, right?A: Well, I just don’t think I need to a stay-at-home mom anymore.B: But, but who’s going to make dinner and do the laundry, and who’s going to clean the house?A: I don’t know, honey, but we’ll figure it out . I’ve been weighing the pros and corns, and now it just seems like the best time to make a change.A: Hey, how’s it going, Frank?B: Oh, not too sure.A: Oh, what’s the problem?B: It’s not really a problem. It’s kinds of a good thing , I guess .A: You guess?B: Well, I applied for a job with a really good engineering firm a couple of months ago , and I talked to the boss yesterday.A: Yeah?B: And they want to hire me.A: That’s great news.B: Well, sort of .But the downside is the job’s in Texas. I would have to move. And they want me to start in six weeks.A: Ooh, Texas, That’s really far away. What are you leaning toward?B: At this point, I’m seriously considering accepting the offer. But I have until next week to let them know.3.A: Hey, Jamie, you look stressed out. What’s wrong?B: Oh, I have to choose my major thi s month, and I’m still undecided.A:I thought you were majoring in theater. Didn’t you say you wanted to be next Angelina Jolie?B: Yeah, but I changed my mind last semester and started taking more psychology classes.A: Well, why don’t you do that? Y ou co uld be the next Sigmund Freud, the female version.B:I would, but I don’t know. I’m taking a really great physics class this semester, I totally love it.A: Then why not do physics?B: So I could be the next Albert Einstein, right? I don’t know about that, either. I kinda want to take some French classes. Yeah, that sounds good! Maybe I should major in French, then I can’t really take the physics. And I mean, theater still is a real fun.4A: What do you think about getting a puppy, Rick?B:A puppy? why would we do that?A: Well, I was at the supermarket today, and there was this guy with a box of Labrador puppies out front, and they are so cute.B: Yeah, of course, they are cute. Puppies are always cute. But they are messy, too.A:I know, but you should have seen them. Their little tails and their little faces.B: The problem with a puppy is that it eventually becomes dog, a big dog.

I sat up in bed like a bolt of lightning. The next thing, I knew ,I had fallen through the floor into a hole and things hitting my head and body. It wasn’t long before I realized that the building had collapsed, on top of me.I called for my parents, but nobody answered, so I tried to dig myself out. No luck. I was under too deep. There was nothing to do but wait for help. I felt very scared in the darkness, but I kept playing little games in my head and singing songs and thinking of things I wanted to do in the future. After ten hours, I heard someone call my name and saw a tiny light shine down on me. I was saved!。

(1.1)While some visitors to Singapore expect a high-tech city, there are also some parts of the island that still reflect how it used to look before urban development took over.In one of the main Central Nature Reserves, monkeys still roam freely, living side by side with humans. The macaques have grown accustomed to being fed, so they look to humans as a source of food. But this in itself is problematic. As the monkeys depend more on humans for food, they venture further from their natural habitat, a phenomenon that has worried experts.There is just not enough space. Essentially, in much of Southeast Asia we’ve seen a lot of habitat loss where rainforest has been destroyed and converted into human settlement. Singapore is a very urbanized city, and it’s taken a lot of space, so there is not much space left for long-tailed macaques.We really need to stop encroaching into nature reserves. We need to stop building the houses so nearby the reserves, which then causes the problem of the macaques coming into people’s houses and raiding them. These macaques are French species so they live on the edges of the rainforests.If humans keep building the houses so near the reserves, there will definitely be a constant human-macaque conflict issue.After all, the macaques are essential to maintaining the rainforest’s ecosystem. More should be done to protect them.(1.2)During the whole year’s promotion, a series of activities will be held to promote public awareness in protecting biodiversity like summit forums and biodiversity knowledge competitions. Also, the government will conduct supervision to fight illegal hunting and other related conduct in nature reserves nationwide.Wan Bentai, general engineer at the Ministry of Environmental Protection says biodiversity is vital to human life. The Earth is colorful just because of biodiversity. If all the species were gone and there were only us humans left, humans wouldn’t be able to survive.Biodiversity not only refers to all the species, including animals, plants and insects but also the genes and our living environment. However, dozens of species are disappearing on our planet everyday. Currently, 34,000 plants and 5,200 animals are on the edge of extinction.Scientists say many species’extinction is attributed to human activities. Many animals are endangered because of human activities like hunting and fishing. But many animalshave a close connection with humans, so we should treat them as friends. Besides, many plants make great contributions to human life, some of which are even more precious than gold.(2.1)When it comes to intelligence(智力), there has always been one fundamental question: Is intelligence a function of nature? Is it simply encoded (把。

Something like 20 yearsKaren: Yeah, I can’t believe we’re that old already.Sharon: Life sure has treated well. You look great!Karen: Thanks you do too! What’ve you been doing all this time? I remember you couldn’t wait to marry Jim and start a family.Sharon: Hah! I never did get married. I was too busy with school and then my job. I don’t even know what happened to Jim.Karen: So what do you do?Sharon: I have my own advertising agency.Karen: Come on, Sharon! You?Sharon: Really. I majored in marketing in college and afterwards got a job with an advertising agency. I worked my way up, and when I felt I understood the business really well, I left to start my own agency.Karen: Wow, that’s pretty impressive. No wonder you haven’t had any time to get married. Sharon: Yeah. So, anyway, what about you? You were the one who was going to travel the world and do your own thing. You didn’t want to get stuck being a housewife.Karen: Hah! You’re gonna laugh, but I AM a housewife, and a mother of three.Sharon: Oh, come on, Karen, you’re not serious, are you? What happened to the travel? Karen: Well, I did travel around Europe for a year with some friends. But then I met Stan, and we got married right away. I helped put him through medical school, and then we had our children.

And I worry about not having a girlfriend. See? I’m just like everybody else.Cesar: I don’t think so. Nobody else I know is doing a Nike commercial. You’re got it made, TJ.TJ: Yeah, but the problem is my parents.Cesar: What’s up?TJ: To really make it big , I’ve got to go on th e pro tour ,and the only way I can go pro is to drop out of school ,but they don’t want me to.

At first I was really appreciative, you know, it's nice to feel that people are concerned when you live alone.Steve: Yeah, it is nice.Kara: Now, though, she comes every day… sometimes more than once! She always brings me homemade soup…Steve: Homemade soup! That is so great! I wish someone cooked for me.Kara: Sure, having some home-cooked food is a treat, but she sits and watches me to make sure I eat it! Last time, I had just eaten dinner when she came over and insisted that I finish a whole bowl. She wouldn't leave until I did!Steve: Oh, c'mon, you could have it much worse.Kara: And, every time I go out she leans out the door to ask where I am going. It's like I'm 17 again!Steve: Would you rather have loud neighbors who kept you up all night? Kara: Well, it's not only her. It's the old man, too. He is such a flirt, and I've always thought it was cute. Ya' know, an old man ,80 years old , still flirting.Steve: Uh huh…Kara: So, today when I got home, he came up to me, gave me a hug…Steve: Yeah, so what…?Kara: And then, he kissed me on the cheek…!Steve: Oh no!

So what are you going to get?Ra chel: Are you kidding, Susie? I’ve got two words for you: “student budget.” I can’t afford to buy any clothing!Susie: Well, you’re just a jeans and T-shirt person, aren’t you? I am going to enjoy myself no matter how much it costs. I’m on holiday. Look, Rachel, I’ll buy you something, a new blouse , or skirt, whatever you want.Rachel: Well, I don’t want anyone to buy me something I can’t afford myself. Susie: Oh, don’t worry about that.

Oh,I rma: No, I didn’t say I got the management job. He hired me for a job in customer service, selling hired me for a job in customer service, selling tours to Asia.Richard: Just customer service? But what about the management position? You were perfect for that job. You can supervise people. You understand the business. Irma: I know. I showed him my resume. I told him that I worked in travel management for five years back home, and that I even got a degree in Business Management here in the U.S.Richard: Oh, I can’t believe that. You’re perfectly qualified for that management position.Irma: That’s what I thought. It’s not fair! Why did I bother going to college here? Richard: Wait, wait a minute. Did he know that you were applying for the management position.Irma: Of course. And you know what he said?Richard: What?Irma: He said that everyone really expects the manager to be someone from the local community. But the person they hired is from New York. And she’s a woman, too, so it’s not because I am a woman. So that means the problem is my English.Richard: But your English is fantastic!Irma: But I’m not a native speaker, and I guess that’s what they want for the management job.Richard: Well, you know, you spend a little time at the customer service job and then you can work your way up to the management position…ScriptAmy: I know I have a picture of Luis around here some-where. Oh, here it is. Erika: wow! He’s so handsome! He looks like a Greek statue.Amy: Yeah, he is very attractive. But I didn’t think so when I first met him. Erika: You didn’t?Amy: No. You know what I noticed when I first met him? He has really hairy hands. Erika: What?Amy: Yeah. His hands are just really hairy. Plus, his clothes were way more fashionable than I usually like. He just wasn’t my type. And on top of all that, he was shorter than me.Erika: So how come you went out with him?Amy: Well, he was just really sweet and funny and I was so comfortable just hanging out with him. And the first time we went out he just swept me away with his personality.Erika: Really, how?Amy: He was just really easy to talk to.Erika: But still, if all those things bothered you, about his hands and all…Amy: well, you know, none of that was important once I got to know him more. His personality a nd the way we got along just made it clear to me that he is “the one.”Erika: So, when’s the big day?ScriptEddie: Hey, what’s up with you, Marty? You look kind of bummed out. Marty: You haven’t heard?Eddie: Heard what?Marty: Kristy and Shawna are moving in with us.Eddie: Yeah, I heard. Simon got transferred to Florida, right?Marty: Yeah, so he and Lily got to go there first and do a whole bunch of stuff. That means that we get stuck with the twin brats.Eddie: Ah, come on, Marty. They aren’t brats.Ma rty: Yeah, but you know what it’s going to mean? Mom and Dad aren’t going to have any time for us anymore. And it’s going to get even more crowded here. Just one big happy family!Eddie: Yeah, there’s a lot of us now, that’s for sure. I hear we’re going to have to sleep in the living room so that Kristy and Shawna can have our room. Marty: I wish we were back in our old house—just us, Mom and Dad.Eddie: Yeah, sometimes I do, too.Marty: And I wish Mom and Dad wouldn’t try to solve everybody’s problems. Edd ie: I don’t think that will change. You know your mom wants to take care of everybody. She doesn’t want to say no if anybody needs he.Marty: But nobody ever asks me what I want!Eddie: Kids never get to say what goes on in their house. That’s the way it i s. Marty: Yeah, you’re right. But now everything in this house is going to be Kristy and Shawna, Kristy and shawna. Or else Grandma.Eddie: Hey, don’t get mad at your grandma. She’s in a lot of pain, you know. Marty: I know. I’m not really mad at her. I’m mad at Mon and Dad. They used to always have time to help me with my homework, or play games with me, but they’re always too busy. And now it’s going to get even worse.Eddie: Hey, maybe I can help you with your homework. Bring it here.Marty: Really? You mean it? I’m really stuck on this math.Eddie: Sure. While things are kind of tough around here, I’ll help you out as much as I can.ScriptSteve: I can’t believe these people. I can’t believe what they do.Trish: Calm down, Steve. What are you talking about?Steve: Look at this. I just bought a donut. I’m so sick of the clerk wrapping each pastry individually, then taping the bags shut, then putting those bags in another bag, folding it down, and then taping that bag shut. I can’t take it anymore. It’s cr azy and it’s bad for the environment.Trish: How long have you been living here? Don’t you know that’s the way it is? Steve: I just want them to stick ‘em in a napkin for me , so I can eat while I’m walking to class.Trish: There you go again. Don’t you know it’s rude to eat while you walk? Steve: I’m so tired of this place. I don’t have time to sit down and eat. Peoplehere are too inflexible, and they have too many rules.Trish: Yeah, right, Steve, so you’re gonna convert everybody here to your way of doing things?Steve: Yeah, there has to be more individual freedom to do whatever you want. Trish: Why don't you just relax and go with the flow?Steve: Go with the flow? The whole system is a waste of my time. The clerks here should learn how to be more efficient, like in the U.S.Trish: What are you talking about? When I was in the U.S., the clerks were really rude. They just ignore you, and seem offended if you want anything. Don't you think it’s better this way?Steve: Are you kidding?Trish: Well, I kind of like it. It’s nice to relax and enjoy the moment while your packages are being wrapped. I like all of the traditions, and the care and attention that people give you, and the manners. To me, it’s a wonderful place to live. Steve: I think you’re nuts.Tr ish: You’re not gonna last long, mate.ScriptAndy: Hey, Bob. How are ya? Come and see what I’ve got.Bob: Is that another new computer?Andy: Yeah. Look how fast it is.Bob: Wow! I can’t believe it. And I thought your other computer was fast! Andy: It is fast, but this one’s like lightning.Bob: And the picture’s so clear.Andy: Mmm. Isn’t it? The color is pretty impressive, too, don’t you think? Bob: Yeah. You always have the latest, don’t you?Andy: You bet. This machine is right on the cutting edge of technology. You wouldn’t believe how much it can do. Apart from e-mail and free Internet service, I can watch TV on it while surfing. With this new desktop program, I can watch TV, e-mail, streamline videos, and scan artwork. And it’s not that expensive to upgrade, either. Uh, speaking of computers, how’s yours? Still like it?Bob: Yeah, it’s fine. Thanks!Andy: I know I gave you a good deal. It was only a year old. Still, are you sure it meets all your needs? Maybe you should think about upgrading.Bob: you know me – the only things tat I need a computer for are e-mail and word processing.Andy: Yeah, but does it give you room to expand? If you want to be able to do more two years from now, will your computer be able to handle it?Bob: Well I don’t know. But I kind of doubt that I’ll need a new one anytime soon.Andy: Yeah, but with computers, there’s always a new model coming out that can do so much more. If you don’t keep up with technology, you'll get left behind. Bob: well, what’s wrong with that?Doctor: Hi, Julie. How are you?Julie: Her, Dr. Cassidy. I’m actually fine. It’s just that I’ve been a little tired the last few days, and my stomach is kinda upset.Doctor: Well, that doesn’t surprise me. I have some news that you might find exciting. Y ou’re pregnant.Julie: No way!Doctor: Yes, you’re going to have a baby.Julie: Are you kidding me? Ah, I need a cigarette.Doctor: That’s the last thing you need. You need to stop smoking, and immediately.Julie: But I can’t stop smoking.Doctor: For your baby’s health, Julie, I’m afraid you have to.Julie: But smoking is the only way I can relax! It helps me when I’m stressed out. Doctor: Now, there are a number of things that are extremely important for pregnant mothers, and not smoking is only one of them. Another is to stop drinking alcohol. Do you drink?Julie: Well, I have a glass of wine with dinner, but I’m not an alcoholic. And I thought a little bit was supposed to be good for you anyway.Doctor: If you drink while you’re pregnant, your child coul d have birth defects. I cannot emphasize enough, Julie, the importance of quitting.Julie: Okay, then. What else is there?Doctor: Well, coffee.Julie: Do I have to give up everything I enjoy? I need coffee to wake me up in the morning.Doctor: I’m afraid,Julie, you’ll have to stop drinking that, too. Caffeine affects the baby’s heart rate. And, it’s also important to get regular exercise.Julie: You’re kidding! I have to quit smoking, stop drinking alcohol and coffee, and on top of all that, I have to start exercising? Boy, it is amazing that anybody ever gets pregnant.Doctor: I really hope you’ll take this seriously, Julie.ScriptSue: Randy, what’s going on in this picture? It looks like you have blood all over your shirt.Randy: No, that’s not blood. It’s ketchup.Sue: Ketchup? What happened?Randy: This happened when Tim and I were traveling around Asia. We were in Bangkok.Sue: Yeah…Randy: …and we had reservations to catch an overnight bus to Chiang Mai. Sue: Yeah.Randy: And we were waiting at a king of restaurant that was sort of a travel agency…and we went early, but the bus didn’t come, and I was getting kind ofSue: Yeah…but what’s that got to do with ketchup?Randy: So, I was beginning to wonder if we’d been cheated, because we’d already paid for our tickets in advance.Sue: Right.Randy: Then, finally, a van pulled up , and we thought, no , this is not the bus…but then everyone else who was waiting pushed right past us and jumped in , and, bam!—just like that, the van drove away. And then this sweet little Thai woman, who was the tickets, came up to us.Sue: Yeah, and …Randy: …and she said, “Why you no get on?” And Tim was like, “ That wasn’t the bus, was it?” “Only one, why you not get on?” And I didn’t know she was talking about…Sue: So what happened?Randy: Well, the travel agent jus shrugged and turned and went inside her shop. Neither of us could believe it. I started to get really angry , like we’d been cheated, and now it’s dark and we’re stranded in this little restaurant…Sue: Oh, no…Randy: I followed her inside, I started arguing. I told her, “We paid for the bus. You didn’t tell us to look for a van. Now you have to get us a taxi to Chiang Mai. Now.” And I started pointing at the clock. I think that was the last straw for t he woman, because she started shouting. “You no go. You no go Chiang Mai!” She grabbed a ketchup bottle off the table you know, one of those plastic squirt ketchup bottles, and she squirted ketchup at me!Sue: No! She didn’t!Randy: Yeah! She did. And then she threw the bottle at me. And Tim snapped the picture. Just then the same van pulled up and the woman said, “Now you go.”Sue: So you got on the van.Randy: Yeah, we ended up at the bus terminal, where this big, air-conditioned tour bus was waiting to go to Chiang Mai. And all the people who had pushed ahead of us earlier were there, waiting to leave. I felt SO stupid for getting angry at the woman and making such a fool of myself.Sue: You must have felt terrible.Randy: Yeah, I wished there was some way I could go back and apologize to her. I realized that I have to be more patient, especially when I’m in another country. ScriptEd: Are you worried about having enough money? Are you worried about paying your bills? Well, worry no more!Customer-1: I use d to watch every penny. But now I’m worth four million dollars, and it’s all thanks to Steven Crowe!Customer-2: I used to get headaches from worrying about money. I had a lot of credit-card debt, and my mortgage payments were killing me. Then I got Steven Crowe’s videos, and learned how to make real money.Ed: “Real money.” That’s the name of this 3-video set by Steven Crowe. Let Steven show you how to become financially independent buying and selling real estate.Steven Crowe: Hi! I’m Steven Crowe. I used to worry about money, too. I felt like a victim of the system. But then I found a way to make the system work—for me. Ed: What’s the trick, Steven?Steven Crowe: There’s no trick, Ed. It’s simple, once you understand how real estate really works. All you need to know is how to buy low and sell high. And that’s exactly what my videos teach you to do.Ed: And you can get really rich?Steven Crowe: Just ask some people who have “Real Money.”Customer-1: After I got the “Real Money” videos, I bought my first h ouse, following Steven’s simple rules. Six months later I sold it and bought two more houses. A year after that, I had enough money to quit my job. Now I have more money than I’ll ever need, and it’s such a great feeling.Steven Crowe: I want you to have that feeling, too. And you can.Ed: Call now to order “Real Money.” 1-800-289-7325.

The stupid train was late again, and I missed my connection, and…gosh, I’m tired already, and the day hasn’t even started. Lori: How long is your commute?Carrie: Almost an hour and a half, on a good day. Three hours of my life every day, five days a week, you know. I’ve got to wake up at six in the morning just to make it in to work by nine or so. I feel like a techno-self.Lori: that is long. I can walk here in 15 minutes. But you know, at least your commute is green. You can look at the trees and small towns…it must be nice. Carrie: For the first 20 minutes yeah. But as soon as the train gets closer to the city, it is all concrete and steel. That’s when it starts to get really crowded. Today so many people were in the train that I felt like a sardine in a big sardine can. Lori: Well, you could always move closer to the office.Carrie: But I love living in the country. The air is so fresh and clean, and I can have a bigger place and it’s safe and all that. I just wish I had more time to enjoy it. Sometimes it seems like my whole life is get up early/take the train/work all day/take the train home/go to bed, and then wale up and do it all over again. Lori: Wel l, can’t you find a way to make the trip more worthwhile?Carrie: Well, I read the newspaper and sometimes I bring a book, but I don’t really enjoy it.Lori: How about audiotapes or CDs? There’re novels or language learning tapes, relaxation tapes, relaxation tapes , all kinds of stuff on tape and CD.Carrie: Yeah, good idea, maybe I’ll look into it. Anything will be better than complaining about this commute all the time.Lori: Yeah, that’s for sure!ScriptAnna: Margaret, what’s the scariest thing that ev er happened to you? Margaret: The scariest thing? Surviving the San Jose earthquake.Anna: You were in the San Jose earthquake? Tell me what happened. Margaret: Well, I was living in an apartment downtown with my friend Julia. And we were still sleep on a Tuesday morning, and a little after six o’clock, there was this horrible sound and the floor was just bouncing and rolling like waves, all at the same time.Anna: Oh my gosh! What did you do?Margaret: well, it took a second or two to figure out what was going on—that it was an earthquake. Then I climbed out of bed and under the table, and I shouted at Julia to come, but she just pulled the covers over her head like it was a bad dream or something.Anna: Whoa!Margaret: It lasted 24 seconds, and then it stopped. And Julia and I could hear people talking outside, so we tried to go out the front door , but it was jammed shut. And then the first aftershock hit.Anna: That must have been horrifying!Margaret: Well, I remember that someone shouted, “Get out of there, quickly!” And we shouted back, “We can’t! The door won’t open.” So they said, “Well, come out the window.” But I called out, “it’s too high up,” because we were living on the second floor. “Not any more,” the person shouted back. So, we looked out the window and , sure enough, we were down on the ground! Anna: Your second floor apartment was on the ground?Margaret: We couldn’t believe it. We opened the window and crawled out, and somebody helped us over all this rubble. Once we were down safely, we turned around and looked back at our apartment building. The whole first floor was gone—it was just totally flattened. And then Julia looked at me and said, “Margaret. Mr. Sanchez!” He was this elderly man who lived on the first floor. Anna: Oh, no. How horrible!Margaret: Yeah. Julia and I both just burst into tears. He never had a chance. ScriptDr. Monroe: This is Dr. Ellen Monroe on Love Talk. This is the part of the show where we listen to our callers’ advice. Tonight we have Sunhee, a woman with a love problem. Sunhee, tell us about your problem.Sunhee: I’m from a Korean family, and I’m in love with a man from India that I met here in the U.S.Dr. Monroe: Okay, and…Sunhee: He’s asked me to marry him, and I said yes.Dr. Monroe: So what is the problem?Sunhee: It’s my parents. They’re very traditional, so I’m afraid of telling them that I’m engaged. I’m worried that they won’t let me marry him.Dr. Monroe: Hmm.Sunhee: I can’t go against my parents’ will, but this is the man I want to marry. Dr. Monroe: Hmm. That’s Sunhee’s problem, folks. Now, what’s your advice to her?Sunhee: Hello. What’s your advice for our worried friend?Carla: Hello. I’m Carla, from Canada, and I married a Chinese man five years ago. When I first told my parents I wanted to marry a foreigner with different religious beliefs, they were very angry. You see, they’re very traditional. They’ve always expected me to marry someone Canadian, from the same religious background. Dr. Monroe: Then what happened?Carla: For four years, they hardly talked to me, and they never came to visit us. it was like they disowned me…Dr. Monroe: Four years, you say. After four years something changed?Carla: Yes. When our little girl was born, I sent my parents a picture of her, and wrote, “Your granddaughter would like to see you.” A week later they called, and a month after that they came to see us – well, they came to see my daughter, any-way. Now they’re trying –they still aren’t comfortable with my husband, but they’re trying to understand him.Dr. Mo nroe: So, what’s your advice?Carla: Don’t give in to tradition. Marry the person you love. But have your first child soon –don’t wait four years like I did. That’s too long to be divided from your parents.Dr. Monroe: Sounds like good advice to me.ScriptSarah: You know, Richard, I really think we ought to fix up our apartment a little. Richard: What for? What’s wrong with it the way it is?Sarah: Are you kidding? It’s so empty.Richard: Come on. A room is just a room. Why do we have to fill it up with a bunch of junk? Besides, it costs money.Sarah: Well, it doesn’t have to be that expensive. I know this really neat little thrift store around the corner. We can go there and get a few simple things, just make it feel like a home.Richard: A few things? Oh, man, this is going to cost money.Sarah: it doesn’t have to cost a lot.Richard: Why can’t we just leave it the way it is? I like it. I feel comfortable here. You start putting a lot of nice things around and it’s going to be a museum. Sarah: But, Richa rd, we’re not the only ones that are going to be here. We want to have friends over, you know, have people over to study. They’ve got to have places to sit.Richard: Hey, that’s a good idea. We could get a couple of psychedelic postersand a lava lamp. Get a black light. Crank up the stereo. We could have cool parties here.Sarah: Parties, Richard? Richard, we are not going to have any time to party. We are going to be way too busy studying. That's what we’re in college for! Richard: College is about having parties about having friends over. I don’t want something that looks like my parents’ house.Sarah: Look. It doesn’t have to look like your parents’ house. We just need a few simple things like chairs. Maybe some plants you know, it’ll just make it nice and homey.Richard: Homey? Okay, I’m not looking for homey. I’m a college student. Sarah: At this rate, we’re never going to find anything that we both like. Richard: Yeah, well, at least we can agree on that.ScriptWhitney: Welcome to Life’s Concerns. I’m your host, Whitney Opal. Today our program is about dealing with loss. One of the hardest things in together. Mr. Clayton Hayes is here today to share his story. Thank you for joining us, Mr. Hayes.Clayton: Call me Clayton, please.Whitney: Okay, Clayton. I’d like to ask you a few questions about how you’re managing. Is that okay?Clayton: Yes, that’s fine. I can talk about it.Whitney: All right, well, your wife passed away two years ago – is that correct? Clayton: Yep. Maggie was 79, just about to turn 80 when she passed away. I never really expected her to go. She was still too young.Whitney: I’m sorry. Do you mind telling us how she died?Clayton: Cancer. She had it for about a year, but it seemed longer than that to me. And she was in so much pain at the end. Oh.Whitney: I’m really sorry. That must have been very difficult for you. Clayton: Yeah. At the end, there, you could tell she just wanted it to be over. She tried to keep up a cheerful face for me , but you can’t hide things from someone you’ve been married to for 56 years, you know.Whitney: I’m sure that’s true. You get to know someone pretty well in 56 years, don’t you?Clayton: Oh, you bet you do. You share so many years of your life with someone, and when they’re gone, oh, there’s a big hol e that no one can fill up. You just feel lonely. Very, very lonely.Whitney: I imagine you have some wonderful memories, as well.Clayton: Oh, yeah. We had a lot of good times, Maggie and me. Oh, boy, the stories I could tell!Whitney: Well, Clayton, you sure do have a lot of memories from your time with Maggie to celebrate!Clayton: Yeah, I sure do.。

Steve: Yeah, there has to be more individual freedom to do whatever you want.Trish: Why don't you just relax and go with the flow?Steve: Go with the flow? The whole system is a waste of my time. The clerks here should learn how to be more efficient, like in the U.S.Trish: What are you talking about? When I was in the U.S., the clerks were really rude. They just ignore you, and seem offended if you want anything. Don't you think it‘s better this way? Steve: Are you kidding?Trish: Well, I kind of like it. It‘s nice to relax and enjoy the moment while your packages are being wrapped. I like all of the traditions, and the care and attention that people give you, and the manners.

The color is pretty impressive, too, don‘t you think?Bob: Yeah. You always have the latest, don‘t you?Andy: You bet. This machine is right on the cutting edge of t echnology. You wouldn‘t believe how much it can do. Apart from e-mail and free Internet service, I can watch TV on it while surfing. With this new desktop program, I can watch TV, e-mail, streamline videos, and scan artwork. And it‘s not that expensive to upgrade, either. Uh, speaking of computers, how‘s yours?Bob: Yeah, it‘s fine. Thanks!Andy: I know I gave you a good deal. It was only a year old. Still, are you sure it meets all your needs? Maybe you should think about upgrading.Bob: you know me – the only things tat I need a computer for are e-mail and word processing. Andy: Yeah, but does it give you room to expand? If you want to be able to do more two years from now, will your computer be able to handle it?Bob: Well I don‘t know. But I kind of doubt that I‘ll need a new one anytime soon.Andy: Yeah, but with computers, there‘s always a new model coming out that can do so much more. If you don‘t keep up with technology, you'll get left behind.Bob: well, what‘s wrong with that?ScriptDoctor: Hi, Julie. How are you?Julie: Her, Dr. Cassidy. I‘m actually fine. It‘s just that I‘ve been a little tired the last few days, and my stomach is kinda upset.Doctor: Well, that doesn‘t surprise me. I have some news that you might find exciting. You‘re pregnant.Julie: No way!Doctor: Yes, you‘re going to have a baby.Julie: Are you kidding me? Ah, I need a cigarette.Doctor: That‘s the last thing you need. You need to stop smoking, and immediately.Julie: But I can‘t stop smoking.Doctor: For your baby‘s health, Julie, I‘m afraid you have to.Julie: But smoking is the only way I can relax! It helps me when I‘m stressed out.Doctor: Now, there are a number of things that are extremely important for pregnant mothers, and not smoking is only one of them. Another is to stop drinking alcohol. Do you drink?Julie: Well, I have a glass of wine with dinner, but I‘m not an alcoholic. And I thought a little bit was supposed to be good for you anyway.Doctor: If you drink while you‘re pregnant, your child coul d have birth defects. I cannot emphasize enough, Julie, the importance of quitting.Julie: Okay, then. What else is there?Doctor: Well, coffee.Julie: Do I have to give up everything I enjoy? I need coffee to wake me up in the morning. Doctor: I‘m afraid,Julie, you‘ll have to stop drinking that, too. Caffeine affects the baby‘s heart rate. And, it‘s also important to get regular exercise.Julie: You‘re kidding! I have to quit smoking, stop drinking alcohol and coffee, and on top of all that, I have to start exercising? Boy, it is amazing that anybody ever gets pregnant.Doctor: I really hope you‘ll take this seriously, Julie.ScriptSue: Randy, what‘s going on in this picture? It looks like you have blood all over your shirt. Randy: No, that‘s not blood. It‘s ketchup.Sue: Ketchup? What happened?Randy: This happened when Tim and I were traveling around Asia. We were in Bangkok.Randy: …and we had reservations to catch an overnight bus to Chiang Mai.Sue: Yeah.Randy: And we were waiting at a ki ng of restaurant that was sort of a travel agency…and we went early, but the bus didn‘t come, and I was getting kind of worried.Sue: Yeah…but what‘s that got to do with ketchup?Randy: So, I was beginning to wonder if we‘d been cheated, because we‘d alrea dy paid for our tickets in advance.Sue: Right.Randy: Then, finally, a van pulled up , and we thought, no , this is not the bus…but then everyone else who was waiting pushed right past us and jumped in , and, bam!—just like that, the van drove away. And then this sweet little Thai woman, who was the tickets, came up to us.Sue: Yeah, and …Randy: …and she said, ―Why you no get on?‖ And Tim was like, ― That wasn‘t the bus, was it?‖ ―Only one, why you not get on?‖ And I didn‘t know she was talking about…Sue: So what happened?Randy: Well, the travel agent jus shrugged and turned and went inside her shop. Neither of us could believe it. I started to get really angry , like we‘d been cheated, and now it‘s dark and we‘re stranded in this little restaurant…Sue: Oh, no…Randy: I followed her inside, I started arguing. I told her, ―We paid for the bus. You didn‘t tell us to look for a van. Now you have to get us a taxi to Chiang Mai. Now.‖ And I started pointing at the clock. I think that was the last straw for t he woman, because she started shouting. ―You no go. You no go Chiang Mai!‖ She grabbed a ketchup bottle off the table you know, one of those plastic squirt ketchup bottles, and she squirted ketchup at me!Sue: No! She didn‘t!Randy: Yeah! She did. And then she threw the bottle at me. And Tim snapped the picture. Just then the same van pulled up and the woman said, ―Now you go.‖Sue: So you got on the van.Randy: Yeah, we ended up at the bus terminal, where this big, air-conditioned tour bus was waiting to go to Chiang Mai. And all the people who had pushed ahead of us earlier were there, waiting to leave. I felt SO stupid for getting angry at the woman and making such a fool of myself. Sue: You must have felt terrible.Randy: Yeah, I wished there was some way I could go back and apologize to her. I realized that I have to be more patient, especially when I‘m in another country.ScriptEd: Are you worried about having enough money? Are you worried about paying your bills? Well, worry no more!Customer-1: I use d to watch every penny. But now I‘m worth four million dollars, and it‘s all thanks to Steven Crowe!Customer-2: I used to get headaches from worrying about money. I had a lot of credit-card debt, and my mortgage payments were killing me. Then I got Steven Crowe‘s videos, and learned how to make real money.Ed: ―Real money.‖ That‘s the name of this 3-video set by Steven Crowe. Let Steven show you how to become financially independent buying and selling real estate.Steven Crowe: Hi! I‘m Steven Crowe. I used to worry about money, too. I felt like a victim of the system. But then I found a way to make the system work—for me.Ed: What‘s the trick, Steven?Steven Crowe: There‘s no trick, Ed. It‘s simple, once you understand how real estate really works. All you need to know is how to buy low and sell high. And that‘s exactly what my videos teach you to do.Ed: And you can get really rich?Steven Crowe: Just ask some people who have ―Real Money.‖Customer-1: After I got the ―Real Money‖ videos, I bought my first house, following Steven‘s simple rules. Six months later I sold it and bought two more houses. A year after that, I had enough money to quit my job. Now I have more money than I‘ll ever need, and it‘s such a great feeling.Steven Crowe: I want you to have that feeling, too. And you can.Ed: Call now to order ―Real Money.‖ 1-800-289-7325. That‘s 1-800-BUY-REAL. Only three payments of $19.95 each, plus shipping and handling. All major credit cards welcome. Get it today, for a worry-free tomorrow! Results may vary.ScriptLori: Oh, good, you‘re here. Another bad commute today?Carrie: Yeah, sorry, I‘m late. The stupid train was late again, and I missed my connection, and…gosh, I‘m tired already, and the day hasn‘t even started.Lori: How long is your commute?Carrie: Almost an hour and a half, on a good day. Three hours of my life every day, five days a week, you know. I‘ve got to wake up at six in the morning just to make it in to work by nine or so.I feel like a techno-self.Lori: that is long. I can walk here in 15 minutes. But you know, at least your commute is green. You can look at the trees and small towns…it must be nice.Carrie: For the first 20 minutes yeah. But as soon as the train gets closer to the city, it is all concrete and steel. That‘s when it starts to get really crowded. Today so many people were in the train that I felt like a sardine in a big sardine can.Lori: Well, you could always move closer to the office.Carrie: But I love living in the country. The air is so fresh and clean, and I can have a bigger place and it‘s safe and all that. I just wish I had more time to enjoy it. Sometimes it seems like my whole life is get up early/take the train/work all day/take the train home/go to bed, and then wale up and do it all over again.Lori: Wel l, can‘t you find a way to make the trip more worthwhile?Carrie: Well, I read the newspaper and sometimes I bring a book, but I don‘t really enjoy it. Lori: How about audiotapes or CDs? There‘re novels or language learning tapes, relaxation tapes, relaxation tapes , all kinds of stuff on tape and CD.Carrie: Yeah, good idea, maybe I‘ll look into it. Anything will be better than complaining about this commute all the time.Lori: Yeah, that‘s for sure!ScriptAnna: Margaret, what‘s the scariest thing that ev er happened to you?Margaret: The scariest thing? Surviving the San Jose earthquake.Anna: You were in the San Jose earthquake? Tell me what happened.Margaret: Well, I was living in an apartment downtown with my friend Julia. And we were still sleep on a Tuesday morning, and a little after six o‘clock, there was this horrible sound and the floor was just bouncing and rolling like waves, all at the same time.Anna: Oh my gosh! What did you do?Margaret: well, it took a second or two to figure out what was going on—that it was an earthquake. Then I climbed out of bed and under the table, and I shouted at Julia to come, but she just pulled the covers over her head like it was a bad dream or something.Anna: Whoa!Margaret: It lasted 24 seconds, and then it stopped. And Julia and I could hear people talking outside, so we tried to go out the front door , but it was jammed shut. And then the first aftershock hit.Anna: That must have been horrifying!Margaret: Well, I remember that someone shouted, ―Get out of there, quickly!‖ And we shouted back, ―We can‘t! The door won‘t open.‖ So they said, ―Well, come out the window.‖ But I called out, ―it‘s too high up,‖ because we were living on the second floor. ―Not any more,‖ the person shouted back. So, we looked out the window and , sure enough, we were down on the ground! Anna: Your second floor apartment was on the ground?Margaret: We couldn‘t believe it. We opened the window and crawled out, and somebody helped us over all this rubble. Once we were down safely, we turned around and looked back at our apartment building. The whole first floor was gone—it was just totally flattened. And then Julia looked at me and said, ―Margaret. Mr. Sanchez!‖ He was this elderly man who lived on the first floor.Anna: Oh, no. How horrible!Margaret: Yeah. Julia and I both just burst into tears. He never had a chance.ScriptDr. Monroe: This is Dr. Ellen Monroe on Love Talk. This is the part of the show where we listen to our callers‘ advice. Tonight we have Sunhee, a woman with a love problem. Sunhee, tell us about your problem.Sunhee: I‘m from a Korean family, and I‘m in love with a man from India that I met here in the U.S.Dr. Monroe: Okay, and…Sunhee: He‘s asked me to marry him, and I said yes.Dr. Monroe: So what is the problem?Sunhee: It‘s my parents. They‘re very traditional, so I‘m afraid of telling them that I‘m engaged.I‘m worried that they won‘t let me marry him.Dr. Monroe: Hmm.Sunhee: I can‘t go against my parents‘ will, but this is the man I want to marry.Dr. Monroe: Hmm. That‘s Sunhee‘s problem, folks. Now, what‘s your advice to her?Sunhee: Hello. What‘s your advice for our worried friend?Carla: Hello. I‘m Carla, from Canada, and I married a Chinese man five years ago. When I first told my parents I wanted to marry a foreigner with different religious beliefs, they were very angry. You see, they‘re very traditional. They‘ve always expected me to marry someone Canadian, from the same religious background.Dr. Monroe: Then what happened?Carla: For four years, they hardly talked to me, and they never came to visit us. it was like they disowned me…Dr. Monroe: Four years, you say. After four years something changed?Carla: Yes. When our little girl was born, I sent my parents a picture of her, and wrote, ―Your granddaugh ter would like to see you.‖ A week later they called, and a month after that they came to see us – well, they came to see my daughter, any-way. Now they‘re trying –they still aren‘t comfortable with my husband, but they‘re trying to understand him.Dr. Mo nroe: So, what‘s your advice?Carla: Don‘t give in to tradition. Marry the person you love. But have your first child soon –don‘t wait four years like I did. That‘s too long to be divided from your parents.Dr. Monroe: Sounds like good advice to me.ScriptSarah: You know, Richard, I really think we ought to fix up our apartment a little.Richard: What for? What‘s wrong with it the way it is?Sarah: Are you kidding? It‘s so empty.Richard: Come on. A room is just a room. Why do we have to fill it up with a bunch of junk? Besides, it costs money.Sarah: Well, it doesn‘t have to be that expensive. I know this really neat little thrift store around the corner. We can go there and get a few simple things, just make it feel like a home.Richard: A few things? Oh, man, this is going to cost money.Sarah: it doesn‘t have to cost a lot.Richard: Why can‘t we just leave it the way it is? I like it. I feel comfortable here. You start putting a lot of nice things around and it‘s going to be a museum.Sarah: But, Richa rd, we‘re not the only ones that are going to be here. We want to have friends over, you know, have people over to study. They‘ve got to have places to sit.Richard: Hey, that‘s a good idea. We could get a couple of psychedelic posters and a lava lamp. Get a black light. Crank up the stereo. We could have cool parties here.Sarah: Parties, Richard? Richard, we are not going to have any time to party. We are going to be way too busy studying. That's what we‘re in college for!Richard: College is about having parties about having friends over. I don‘t want something that looks like my parents‘ house.Sarah: Look. It doesn‘t have to look like your parents‘ house. We just need a few simple things like chairs. Maybe some plants you know, it‘ll just make it nice a nd homey.Richard: Homey? Okay, I‘m not looking for homey. I‘m a college student.Sarah: At this rate, we‘re never going to find anything that we both like.Richard: Yeah, well, at least we can agree on that.ScriptWhitney: Welcome to Life‘s Concerns.
