M: The credit card bill arrived today. Oh, no. This bill is for more than 1,500 dollars.
W: I was shopping with Barbara, and the store was having a sale, so I bought a dress. She forgot her credit cards at home and asked if she could put the charge on our card. She promised to pay me back.
M: A 1,500-dollar dress?!
W: Well, I bought a few things. A few hundred dollars in the food section and 200 on that pair of shoes. I guess the dress cost, um, 600 dollars.
M: Honey!
W: I’m sorry. I promise I’ll not do shopping for the next three months.

M: Good morning. I’d like to ask about the Master degree course in cultural studies.
W: Ah, yes.
M: How long will the course last?
W: It’s a two-year course that involves mostly research.
M: Can I study by distance learning?
W: Yes, the course is designed for distance learning. You have to be here for only three weeks.
M: Well, could you tell me the contents of the course?
W: Yes. It is concerned with the analysis and theory of culture.
M: Oh, that’s culture in general, not just British culture?
W: That’s right. The course does encourage some analysis of British culture, but what’s most important is the comparison with the cultures of the students in the course. You are British?
M: Yes, I’m working as an English teacher in China, actually.
(Text 8)
W: We have your application letter in answer to our ad in the newspaper. I want to talk with you about the position. So, can you tell me something about yourself?
M: Well, I worked in an art school and looked for new students. I had to visit students in their homes, talk with their parents, answer their questions and perform other duties.
W: Our company needs someone to sell computers. And I think your school experience will be useful. The job is to exhibit new computers and talk people into buying them.
M: I see. I have the confidence that I can do the job.
W: OK. You may leave your phone number in case we want to contact you.
M: Sure. I hope to hear from you soon.
(Text 9)
W: David. What happened to you?
M: I was up till 2:30 last night.
W: More trouble with Michael and Betty? Were they breaking dishes again?
M: No, I don’t think they have any dishes left after the last fight. They were quarrelling about his old girlfriend.
W: Can’t you get the other neighbors together and complain?
M: Rob and Steve were so busy holding a party last night that they probably didn’t hear the fighting. Mrs Anderson has a heart of gold. Unfortunately, she’s a little deaf. Actually, she’s also a problem. Her niece phones every morning at 6:30. She always screams into the phone, and it wakes me up.
W: You need to look for a new place to live.
M: Give up my book? I’m writing another book about a guy who lives in an apartment building with some crazy people. I hope it’ll be a big Hollywood movie someday.
(Text 10)
M: Good evening, everyone. Do you know at what age a child becomes an adult? The answer depends on your culture or religion.
First, in some North American Indian cultures, a boy became a man around the age of 13. At that time, he would go into the woods alone, without food or water, for several days. When he returned safely, he became an adult man.
In Japan today, young people become legal adults at age 20. Each year on January 15, they wear traditional clothes, listen to speeches, and visit with old friends.
Finally, in the United States, the passage into adulthood takes several years. American teenagers can get a driver’s license at the age of 16. The legal age of adulthood is 18. However, they must wait until age 21 to buy alcohol.
OK, that’s all for my lecture. You are required to write a summary of this class.
