Dialogue 1:Talking with friendsA: When you are in a restaurant and you want the waiter to bring the bill, what do

you do to attract his attention?

B: I just make my eye contact with him and nod my head. Then I tell him when he comes over to the table. Why do you ask?

A: I went out with my girlfriend to a nice restaurant last night and I noticed that many people shouted for bill.

B: That seems a little impolite in such a restaurant.

A: That’s what I thought. I just thought I’d ask you and see what you thought for it.

Dialogue 2: in the gymA: Can you suggest a few exercises to hele me get fit and stretch my muscles a littl

e?

B: Sure. If you want to stretch your legs, a good exercise is to lift your knee in front og your body, like this. It’s very simple, but very effective.

A: I need to exercise my arms too. How can I do that?

B: One good way is to do push-ups. Another way is use weights. Make sure you grip the weight firmly. You don’t want to drop them on your feet!

A: What is a good exercise for my chest muscles?

B: One that I recommend is that you lie on your back. You should have a weight in each hand and stretch your arms out either side of your body.

A: Great. Thanks for your advice!

补充阅读Thoughts for a New Year

Most of us look away when we pass strangers. It is the exceptional person who stops to help the woman maneuvering her kids and groceries up the staircase.

These daily encounters, when they are angry or alien, diminish our lives. When they are pleasant, we feel buoyed( 振奋的 ). Yet when we sit at home and make resolutions, we think about what we can accomplish( 实现 ) in private spaces ： home, work. Too many have given up the belief that they control the shared, the public world.

As individuals we can change the day, the mood of a moment, the way people feel. The demolition( 毁坏 ) and reconstruction( 重建 ) of public life is the result of personal decisions made every day ： the decision to give up a seat on the bus ； the decision to be patient or pleasant against all odds( 尽管很困难 ) .

It‘s the resolution to be a civil, social creature. This may be a peak period for the battle against the spread of a waistline and creeping cholesterol( 胆固醇 ). But it is also within our will power to fight the spread of urban rudeness and creeping hostility( 敌意 ). Civility( 礼貌 ) doesn’t stop nuclear holocaust( 大屠杀 ) and doesn‘t put a roof over the head of the homeless. But it makes a difference in the shape of a community, as surely as lifting weights can make a difference in the shape of a human torso( 人体的躯干 ).
