Has Patrick moved out yet?
Yes, he moved out last weekend. He's now living in a very nice, quiet neighborhood.
I wonder if he's paying more for rent now.
I don't have the faintest idea. Even so, it's still worth it, isn't it?
You're right. I think he's probably very glad to leave that noisy apartment.

Great! Are there any landmarks near by?

We put $500 into the savings account, and $750 into our stock account.
$3075, our pay checks are $3300 combined. That means we don't have any receipts for $225. Right.

Yes. That's a good idea! And you like to cook. What about the books? No,I need my books.
Come on! If we save more money we can retire earlier and you'll actually have time to read all those books you buy.

子女教育 Children's Education
Tommy played truant today. His teacher called me this morning. Where did he go?
I've asked him,but he won't tell me. What shall we do about this?
He is like you. I remember when we were at the collage you always skipped classes.
Like me? But you see I'm so sucessful now. And if he is really like me he will be more successful than me in the future.
Stop,stop! We are talking about our son's attendance for classes and his study.
Maybe we could give him a little bit of money to pay him to go to school.
Pay him? But he studys for himself,not for you or for me or for anybody else.
I've got an idea. You should send him to class every morning,and after class begins you can go to work. In that way,I'll be late everyday. How about letting him go to school on school bus?
That's a good idea! Why have I never thought of that? That's because,I went to school for each class when I was at school,so now I'm much more clever than you.

评论电影 Comment on the Film
So what did you think about the movie?
Well,I think this \"star wars\" episode is an excellent piece of work,but not as good as the previous ones. Really? I don't agree. This \"star wars\" episode was
英语口语900句丛书
incredible.
Why do you think so?
Well,one of the most spectacular things about this one was the special effects.
State of the art special effects are the main reason for the success for the previous episodes. So audiences have high expectations for this one. And I don't think they will be disappointed.
You are right. The special effects were amazing. And I like the fact that they created so many fantastic settings and other-worldly costumes,weapons and creatures.
It's kind of cool that they are still using the same \"star wars\"' theme song for this movie.
Yeah,it reminds me of the previous \"star wars\" scenes. I know exactlly what you mean. Hearing that song gives me a nostalgic feeling.
I thought the overall plot of the movie was really very interesting. But I don't think the charactor development was that strong.
Do you think that had anything to do with the casting of this movie?
No,the casting is great. And the actors were excellent. They just didn't have a lot of funny or meaningful dialogues. The writing was also a little weak. Well,maybe......But I like the little kid who played \"xxx Skywalker\". I can't imagine anyone else playing that role.
I like him too. He is so cute. You know even though I was slightly disappointed I can't wait for the next episode.
I wonder when they're going start making it and when it's scheduled for release.
I have no idea. But looking at the success of this \"star wars\" episode I have a strong feeling production for the next episode will be shot pretty soon. I hope it will be even better than this one. I hope so,too.
Well,I think we should go now. It's getting pretty late. Ok,let's go.

Whether you're in search of quiet relaxation or unbridled stimulation, Hawaii gives you the best of both.
Great! So how long is the trip?
15 days. The transportation by air will take 5 days. Fine,I happen to have 20 days for holiday. So exiting. How many places will be visited? And what are they? Where will we be staying and how about the food there?
Sir,let's do it step by step. First,we will visit over 25 different places. Most of the places are in Hawaii's big islands. We will stay in Arnott's Lodge & Hiking Adventures and Aloha Beach Resort. Both hotels offer perfect device. As for the third question,the most difficult decision you may face on your visit to Hawaii,is where to eat. With hundreds of options on any given island you may find all the choices overwhelming. But just trust your instincts to follow your nose: they will no doubt lead you into the delicious discoveries.
Well,cool! What's the price for the trip?
Well,right now there is a special rate for 50,000RMB for this package,including everything such as air line tickets,tour guides,hotels and food. All you have to do is to sign up and we take care of everything.
Well,50,000RMB,that's really a lot of money. I'll have to think about it.
Sure. By the way,this special price is only good through the end of this week.
Is it Tuesday? I mean if I let the chance slide...... Yes,Sir. It will be a great pity! Well,ok. I'll take it. Thank you.

And working also help us feel that we are useful. But you know it's hard for new graduate to find a job right now.

打算辞职 Decide to Resign
So how is your work? Good. How about you?
I'm going to resign. A few of the new staff have already left. Obviously a lot of similar jobs pay much better salaries.
But your company is huge. Cann't they afford to pay the staff decent wages?
We have a policy of paying according seniority in the company.
So new employees get quite low salaries no matter how excellent they have done.
That's so shortsighted. By the time the workers are experienced and contributing they're likely to go. That's why I'm going to leave. But you already work there for 5 years.
I'm worried about my future. I cann't believe that companies as big as it is,the company can only continue to grow by taking care of its staff.
Well,the management doesn't think that way. Anyway,you have to thing about that twice before you act.
Thank you. I will.
工作不顺利 In Trouble

It's been a hard day today. First I was one hour late. You know the traffic is really bad. And then I got yelled at by my boss. Oh,man!
That's not all. After that I sat down working at my computer.
But when I try to transfer everything onto the disc I found my disc was broken. You forgot to save it?
I totally forgot! The god damn disc was broken. I just lost the whole day's work.
It's like I've been working like a mad man and got nothing finally. Shit!
What's your mode,buddy? It's not the end of the world. There are always two sides to everything. Try to look
英语口语900句丛书
on the bright side. If there were bright sides.
〓 谈网络

The internet has many advantages. Do you often shop on line?
Could you help me download several songs from the internet?
My computer can't get access to the internet. Have you installed antivirus software?
查找资料 Search for Information
Can you help me do an internet search? Sure! What do you want to find?

网上聊天Chat Online
So how did you meet Bill?
I met him through a computer bulletin board. Oh,really? Which bulletin board?
It was one I used down at the local coffee house called the San Francisco net. It's been around since about 1991.
68 / 73
I've heard about that. But I've never tried it.
You ought to. One dollar buys you 15 minutes of computer time.
A \"chat session\" links you with Cappuccino sippers in other cafes and also to home computers on the network.
I have no desire to talk on a network with a bunch of strangers.
That's the whole point. All your inhibitions disappear because you can't see the other person. This network allows you to talk to people whom you normally wouldn't talk to.
I just want a private conversation with one other person.
You can do that. A private session lets two people talk alone.
This techno-chat program lets you talk about anything with everybody,without prejudice because you can't see them.
Well,maybe I'll tag along and watch how you talk. That's fine with me. but we'll have to get there early, because after 8pm there is always a long line. Is that popular? It sure is.
Okay,okay. We're there tonight. So what does it cost? One dollar buys 15 minutes of computer time. This talk isn't cheap.
I don't know. I'll feel funny talking through a computer.
Remember,that's how I met Bill. I guarantee you that you can talk to girls who would never talk to you if they saw your face.
What's that supposed to mean? Look in the mirror,man.
电脑骇客Hacker
Hi,Mike. Even surfing the net quite a while. What are on earth you searching for?
It's something about hackers. I often hear people talking about them. But I don't know much about them.
Well,briefly speaking,a hacker is a computer BOSS. You mean a guy using enthusiastic knowledgable
英语口语900句丛书
about computer? Well,you can say that.
Why are people always having such a negative attitude towards them?
They must have mixed hackers with crackers. What are crackers then?
There is another group of people who loudly call themselves hackers,but they aren't.
They break into computers and break the phone system. Real hackers call these people crackers and want nothing to do with them.
So they are two totally different concepts?
Well,real hackers mostly think that crackers are lazy,irresponsible,and not very bright,and feel that being able to break security does't make you a hacker anymore than being able to start cars without keys makes you an automotive engineer.
Unfortunately many journalists and writers have been fooled into using the word hacker to describe crackers. This irritates real hackers to no end.
I see. Then the basic difference is,hackers build things,crackers break them. You got it. Thanks a lot. You're welcome.
〓 谈经济
The economy in our country is booming.
The government has adopted many measures to promote the economy.

They could generally be divided into two categories:
70 / 73
direct and indirect contaminant sources.
Well,direct ones are pollution directly from factories,refineries,waste treatment plants etc.,aren't they?
Yeah.They are emitted directly into urban water supplies.
But what about the indirect ones?
Indirect sources include contaminants that enter the water supply from soils or groundwater systems and from the atmosphere via rainwater.
