UNIT ONE Part One Warm Up Dialogue 1

下面是两个人在交流交男女朋友的经验，这是人类共同的话题，但文化价值观的差异又使我们在同样的问题的处理方法上有所不同：

A: Hey, there’s Leo. I ⑴wonder why he’s ⑵walking arm in arm with that young woman. B: ⑶It’s as plain as the nose on your face. They’re dating each other.

A: You’re ⑷pulling my leg! *She must be thirty years younger than Leo. Talk about ⑸robbing the cradle! B: Well, *you can bet this relationship’s going to ⑹be a flash in the pan.

A: It ⑺must have been love at first sight because I know he didn’t have a girlfriend last week.

B: I think you are ⑻absolutely right. Actually, my father proposed to my mother after knowing her only two weeks. They got married a month later. Dialogue 2:

下面的对话是A同学帮B同学想办法解决B在度假期间公寓处置的问题：

A: *You must be⑴pretty excited about your trip to Europe. When is it that you are leaving? B: In just three weeks, and I am excited. But there are still ⑵a few things I need to do before I go. A: ⑶Like what?

B: Like renewing my passport, going to the travel agency to buy my plane ticket and ⑷figuring out what to do with my apartment while I’m gone.

A: ⑸ You are not going to give it up, are you?

B: ⑹No way. I’ll never find another apartment around here. But ⑺I don’t like the idea of paying three months’ rent on an empty apartment, either.

A: I don’t blame you. *Perhaps you could ⑻sublet it. B: Yes, but whom to?

A: Mmm…let me think. Oh, I know just a person. An old colleague of mine, Jim Thomas, is coming here to do some research this summer, from June to August.

B: That’s exactly when I’ll be away. It sounds ideal, as long as the landlord agrees. A: ⑼Tell you what, I’ll be calling Jim late this week anyway, so I’ll mention it to him then. B: Well, thanks, Bill. Let me know what happens. That extra money will really ⑽come in handy. Dialogue 3

下面是电影里的一段对白，B(Ben)无所事事地在游泳池中漂流，A对他这种颓废的表现十分不满，对话由此展开： A: Ben, what are you doing? B: Well, I would say that I’m just ⑴drifting ---- here, in the pool. A: Why? B: Well, it’s very comfortable just to drift here. A: Have you ⑵thought about ⑶graduate school? B: No.

A: ⑷*Would you mind telling me then — what were those four years of college for? What was the point of all that hard work? B: ⑸You got me.

A: Now ⑹listen, Ben. Look, I think it’s a very good thing that a young man — *after he’s done some very good work — should have a chance to relax and enjoy himself, and lie around, and drink beer and so on. But after a few weeks I believe that person would want to take some stock in himself and his situation and start to think about ⑺getting off his ass. Part Two

B的房客给B带来了很多麻烦，A对B表示同情，并建议B直接找房客谈一谈。 A: Are things still going badly with your houseguest? B: ⑴It’s getting worse. Now ⑵he’s eating me out of house and home. I’ve tried talking to him but it all goes in one ear and out the other. He makes himself at home, which is fine. But what really ⑶gets me is that yesterday he walked into the living room ⑷in the raw and I had company over! ⑸That was the last straw.

A: Jim, I really think *you’re beating around the⑹bush with this guy. *I know he used to be your best friend in college, but I really think it’s time to lay down the law. B: You’re right. Everything is probably going to come to a head tonight. I’ll keep you informed. Dialogue 2

A从B（Karen）黝黑的皮肤上猜测她一定去晒太阳了。而A却在图书馆里渡过了周末。 A: Hey, Karen. Look like ⑴you got some sun this weekend. B: (2)Yeah? I guess so. I spent the weekend at beach. A: That’s great. Where did you stay?

思想的交流不是苹果的一一对换，而是双赢游戏（win-win game）。尊重每个个体的独特性，就是充分考虑他人的意见，谨慎思考，在分歧中探求一致。问一个很简单的问题：你会说“Yes”和“No”吗？ Small Talk 1:

Jane: It would be interesting to live in the countryside, don’t you think? Bob: Well, you’re probably right. Jane: You seem to have some reservations.

A: *No, that’s not the point. I work in the ⑷cafeteria every evening. I need the money to pay my tuition.

B: Can you ask someone that works to switch hours with you. Maybe you could just switch a couple of evenings since the course probably only meets two times a week.

道歉是一个尴尬的场面，却也是最能表现一个人语言能力和行为态度的时候。诚恳是道歉的基础，尽管有时候一个white lie也无伤大雅。你面对别人的道歉，是原谅的时候多，还是不给对方机会的时候多？别忘了，宽容是一个人的涵养。给别人一个改正错误的机会，也就给了你自己一个更宽广的天空。 Small Talk 1:

Catherine: Mike, I owe you an apology. I’m so sorry that I couldn’t make it yesterday. Mike: You should have told me when you realized you wouldn’t be available.

A: Today Mr. Leo threw Jane out of class! B: ⑶On the level?

A: ⑷I’ll say. I knew Sally would finally ⑸show her true colors. When she got her final test results back from Mr. Leo, she started yelling at him. You should have heard her. I’ve never seen anyone get so upset before. ⑹To make a long story short, it seems that Mr. Leo failed her because he caught her cheating.

A: Some woman in here when I tried to register three weeks ago. She said I just had to pay a late fee. B: She must have been a part-time worker. They didn’t have much training. Why didn’t you register then? A: She said I couldn’t until I had my birth certificate. Here it is.

B: Huh, that is no reason to demand a birth certificate. We only need to establish residency, you know, a phone bill with your name and address on it would have been fine. A: Serious? Only the proof of my address.

B: Yes, ⑸I am afraid she gave you the wrong information. A: But it’s unfair.

B: Well, I ⑹sympathize with your problem, but, to be honest, I don’t think there is any thing anyone can do for you. You were ⑺trapped in the system. [提出建议]If you want, you can talk to the director. She will help you if she can. A: Great.
