A and B are desk-mates.Although the school bell has rung, their teacher has not turned up.They are making various aumptions about the absence of their teacher.A:Hey,Mrs Smith haven’t come,the school bell has rung.Had she told us she wouldn’t come yesterday?
B:No,she hadn’t said that.she is always on time,Why?I’m a little worried.she is the best teacher that I ever had
A:Yeah,she is always so patient, kind, fun, smart, caring, and yet strict, too.I really learned a lot from her.Don’t be too worried,maybe just hold up by the heavy traffic B:Well,I hope so.But ten minitues have paed.Maybe,she had met a traffic accident......
A:Don’t be so upset..Everything will be Ok.
B:Oh.I also hope it isn’t.But I just fell not well.
A:Ok,Mary,don’t be dropped into it .Maybe,Mrs Smith was just slept late yesterday,and the clock stopped to work today.Nobody is a perfect person
B:yeah,I gue so .Maybe I’m just too sensitive
A:Look!Mrs Smith is coming
B:Where?
A:Near the restaurant,and in red clothes
B:Yeah,I see.but her hairis a little.....Don’t she meet something wrong?
A:Oh,Mary,take it easy.Despite he hair, everything is ok
B:It’s so sweet of you,thank you for comforting me,Tom
A:My pleasure.Mrs Smith is near the claroom.I think she will explain all of that.
How can parents and children improve their mutual understanding
A:Hey,Mary,what’s up?You look so upset
B:Oh,Tom.I just Don’t know what to say
A:Take it easy,we are friends
B:Well,I quarrelled with my parents right now.I really don’t know how to comunicate with them
A:Oh,That’s terrible.Why?
B:My parents were very strict.They wouldn’t let me out after 7:00 on school nights.I have been 15 years old,it’s really unbelievable。
A：Well，I expect there were good reasons for that。It probably keptyou out of trouble
B：Yeah，and it made me focus on my homework
A：And，most likely it meant you got enough sleep
B：Yeah ，But it also stopped me from seeing any movies or shows in the evenings，even theparties。I really hate it
A：Well，that’s really unconvenient。Can’t you just tell your parents your feelings and thoughts?
B:Yes, of course .I wrote a letter to them,tell them my clamates’example,even quarralled with them.But these all didn’t work up
A:Calm down,Mary.There’s no doubt that our parents love us.Maybe,just,the way that we can’t agree with.
B:Maybe you are right,but how I can let them understand me more
A:Perhaps you can make your parents meet with your teacher.Also,you can just be peaceful,try to talk with your parents,I think they will understand you at last B:That sounds good,maybe I can try it.That really kind of you,Tom
A:Glad to have been of some help,Mary
1、A and B are freshmen at the same college.They are talking about the similarities and differences between college and high school life.
A:Hi,Tom
B:Hi,Mary.What do you think of our college life.Our teacher let us talk about the similarrities and differences between college and high school life.
A:I think college life is very different form high school life.Likewise, youhave more spare time for non-academic activities in college.You do not need to go home after cla like high school students.
B:I think so too What’s more, you can do everything you want.For example, you can participate in some clubs, societies, and volunteering activities.You can also do some sports like swimming, bowling, tennis or you can go shopping, go traveling, or even have a date
A:Yes, The pastime in college is full of temptation, so you need to think a lot before deciding what to do in order to make your college life meaningful.Therefore, the biggest difference between college pastime and high school pastime is that you should be responsible for what you are going to do.Similarly, you should also have a balance between study and relaxation.
B:Though there are so many differences between them.College and high school life also have some similarrities For exeample ,study is also very important,and we are not absolutaly independent.Our tuition is still depending on our parents
A:Yeah,we also have teacher,claroom, dormitory.They are all the same
And high school life isn’t far from us,le than one year
B:But in general.the differences are over similarities.Oh,It’s time for cla
See you later
A:See you
