John: Oh, yes. So you are Cathy from the office. Actually I've heard a lot about you in that project, the client sounded like a real nightmare.

Cathy: Oh, he was, I mean we deal with all kinds of people on a regular basis, it's part of the job, but he was especially particular. Enough about that, what line of work are you in?

John: Well, right out of college I worked in advertising for a while. Recently though, I turn my photography hobby into a small business. (2) I'll actually be taking photos during the big event as a wedding gift.

Cathy: That sounds wonderful and very thoughtful of you. I bake, just as a hobby. (3) But Brenda has asked me to do the cake for the wedding. I was a bit nervous saying yes because I'm far from a professional.

John: Did you bake the cookies here at the party tonight?

Cathy: Yes, I got the idea from a magazine.

John: They're delicious! You've got nothing to worry about. You are a natural.

Cathy: You really think so?

John: If you hadn’t told me that. I would ha ve guessed they were baked by the restaurant. (4) You know, with your event planning experience you could very well open your own shop.

Conversation 2

M: You are heading for a completely different world, now that you are about to graduate from high school.

W: I know it’s the end of high school, but many of classmates are going on to the same university, and we are still required to study hard. So what’s the difference?

M: (5) Many aspects are different here at the university. The most important one is that you have to take more individual responsibility for your actions. It’s up to your own self-discipline—how much efforts you put into study. Living in college dormitories, there are no parents to tell you that study harder or stop wasting time. Lectures have hundreds of students and they are not going to follow you up or question you if you miss the lectures.

W: Nobody cares you mean?

M: It’s not that nobody concerned about you, (6) it’s just that suddenly a t the university you are expected to behave like an adult. That means concentrating on the direction of your life in general and your own academic performance specifically.

W: For example…?

M: Well, like you need to manage daily, weekly and monthly schedules, so that you study regularly. Be sure to attend all classes and leave enough time to finish your assignments and prepare well for examinations.

W: Ok, and what else is different?

M: Well, in college there are lots of distractions, and you need to control yourself. You will make interesting friends, (7) but you need only keep the friends who respect your students’ commitments. Also, there are a lot of wonderful clubs, but you shouldn’t allocate too much time to club activities, unless (8) they are directl y related to your study. It’s also your choice if you want to go out at night, but you will be foolish to let that affect class performance during the day. W: Well, I’m determined to do well at the university and I guess I’m going to have to grow up fast.
