Unit 1

Amy:Good morning, Talia.

Talia :Oh, hi. Good morning.

Amy:You know, you're working too hard.

Talia :I know. I always work this hard. Maybe you could mention that to Tony? I don't think he knows it.

Amy:Is that a new hairstyle? It's very ... unique.

Talia :Very funny. I had to work late last night. I' m tired, I ' m in a bad mood, and I don't care about my hair.

Amy:That's probably why you're not a reporter yet.

Talia:You think so?

Amy:No, I'm just kidding...

Talia :You may be right.

Amy:Maybe Tony will take you more seriously after you finish the journalism class.

Talia :Oh, no! Our journalism class! I forgot. It's tomorrow. What's the homework?

Amy:Compare two news stories on the same topic.

Talia :That's easy enough to do. Sounds interesting,too. I guess I'll do it after work.

Amy:You work too hard.

Unit 3

Woman’s voice on tape: We’ll pay you fifty thousand dollars.

Nick’s voice on tape: And all I have to do is sit on the bench?

Woman’s voice on tape: That’s right. Do that, and fifty thousand dollars is yours.

Nick’s voice on tape: Well, I can really use the money. You’ve got yourself a deal.

Woman’s voice on tape: Great. It’s a pleasure doing business with you.

Tony: How’s it going?

Talia: I can’t tell. I hope our expert will be able to figure it out.

Tony: Me, too, when will we have the results?

Talia: He’s going to call me back this afternoon.

Tony: Good.

Talia: You know, I’ve been a researcher here for three years. I’ve investigated other scandals. But something he re doesn’t seem right.

Tony: What do you mean?

Talia: It just doesn’t make sense. Nick Crawford loves soccer. Why would he do something to hurt his career?

Tony: That’s a good question. How well do you know Nick Crawford? Is he a friend of yours? Talia: No, not really. I just knew him in college. We had English together for two semesters. Tony: Oh, that’s it?

Talia: Well, I got to know him a little. I know that he moved here from England about 10 years ago.

I know that he’s smart. And I know that he’s always dreamed of being a great soccer star.

Tony: Mm-hmm.

Talia: So, why would he risk ruining his career?

Unit 4

Nick: I know you, don’t I?

Talia: Yes. I’m Talia, Talia Santos.

Nick: Yeah, Talia! Of course!

Talia: After all these year s, I’m surprised you remember me.

Nick: How could I forget you?? We were in an English literature class together, weren’t we? Talia: Tha’s right, the Shakespeare class.

Nick: Right, Dr. Custer’s class. She was a tough teacher. She really made us work har d.

Talia: Oh, gosh, don’t remind me.

Nick: We studied together for the final, didn’t we?

Talia: Yes, that’s right. As I recall, you did really well on it.

Nick: That’s right! But only because I speak Shakespeare so fluently.

Talia: Very cute.

Nick: So, what are you doing here? Are you a big soccer fan now?

Talia: Not exactly. I’m a researcher now… with Newsline.

Nick: Oh, I see. Well, news people aren’t my favourite people right now. I heard there’s a nasty story coming out about me. Something about me throwing a game?

Talia: That’s why I’m here.

Nick: Too bad. Well, maybe we can meet again sometime, under different circumstances.

Unit 5

Talia:OK, let’s get this straight. You’re one of the country’s best soccer players…

Nick:Well, I have to admit —t hat's true. Of course, some people think that’s not such a great achievement.

Talia:Now, for some reason, you sat out one of the biggest games of the year.

Nick:Not just for some reason. I sat out because I had a sprained（扭伤）ankle. I could hardly walk, I certainly couldn’t play.

Talia:But your coach can’t verify this.

Nick:Of course not. You can’t see a sprain on an X-ray.

Talia: You can’t?

Nick: No.

Talia: I see…

Nick: You don’t have to believe me, but it’s the truth. I sat out the first round qual ifying match because I had a sprained ankle.

Talia: And not because you took a bribe.

Nick: A bride? How can anybody believe such a ridiculous thing?

Talia: Then can you explain the tape?

Nick: What tape?

Talia: Listen to this.

Woman’s voice on tape: We’ll pay you fifty thousand dollars.

Nick’s voice on tape: And all I have to do is sit on the bench?

Woman’s voice on tape: That’s right. Do that and fifty thousand dollars is yours.

Nick’s voice on tape: Well, I can really use the money. You’ve got you rself a deal.

Woman’s voice on tape: Great. It’s a pleasure doing business with you.
