Dialogue 1

W: You don’t look like enjoying this workout.

M: I’m not crazy about it at all.

W: You don’t like this sort of exercise?

M: I’m not interested in it. Are you keen on it?

M2: I can’t say I do. What I like a girl with good manners.

M1: Oh, yes. But surely you like a girl with a nice figure.

M2: Yes. But I like a girl with a nice personality.

M1: But you like a girl to be rich, surely?

M2: Not particularly. I like a girl to be good.

Dialogue 6

M: Kate, what do you like to do tonight? Do you often go to the movies?

W: Of course. I often go to the movies.

M: There’s a good movie called Summer in Beijing.

W: I heard it’s a very good movie.

M: Let’s find out what time it starts.

W: Let’s look at the newspaper.

M: Here it is. It starts at 8:00.

W: Wonderful. I’m so excited.

What I like most I suppose is the fact that is so unusual. I mean, when I tell people what I do, they just look at me usually as if I’m a mad. I get up at about 6:15 every morning. I leave my wife in bed because she is not as mad as me. And I put my trunks on and my track suit and drive down to the park with my cloths and case. It only takes about 5 minutes because there’s no traffic of course at that time in the morning. So when I get there, I leave the car and the car park and run around a bit.
