【正文】 ot exactly! Andy. There’s so much to see and do here. By the way, this city also has a strong African influence: you can see it in the music, food, and dance styles of the region. Andy: Mmhmm. What do people like to do there? Todd: many people enjoy watching a special kind of dance that’s a mixture of dancing and fighting with an African origin. For those of you who enjoy nightlife, this city can’t be beat. It has several different street festivals during the year, each one like a minicarnival of its own. Andy: Great! Thanks a lot, Todd. Well, that certainly has given our listeners plenty to think about, but I’m sorry to say we’re out of time. That’s it, folks. This is Andy Wong reminding you to tune in tomorrow for the next installment of our travel show,” where in the World…?” Goodnight, everybody! Interviewer: Hi, guys! Jose and Vicki: Hi. Interviewer: Thanks for agreeing to meet me here on such short notice. Jose: No problem. Interviewer: Well. Listen, as I said to you on the phone, I’m doing a story for the campus newspaper. I’m interviewing foreign students to get their impressions of our city. Um, this should only take about ten minutes or so. Let’s see…Uh, do you mind if I taperecord our interview? Vicki: Oh no, not at all. Interviewer: OK, then. Jose, why don’t we start with you. What do you think of San Francisco? How do you like it here so far? Jose: It’s OK! I guess. Interviewer: Oh, you don’t sound very enthusiastic. Jose: No, no. I like it. It’s just that I’ve been so busy studying. I haven’t had much time to explore the city. Interviewer: Oh. That’s too bad. Jose: Yeah. And when I have the time, well, it’s so cloudy and foggy here especially in the summer. I never thought I’d be wearing a sweater in July! Interviewer: Well, this is Northern California. Hey, maybe you should move south. I hear Los Angeles is warmer. Vicki? Vicki: Oh, I love it here. I think this is a beautiful city. The rolling hills, the views of the bay it’s very romantic. Interviewer: Yeah. So how do you guys spend your free time? Jose: Well, I’m studying architecture and am somewhat of a photographer…… Interviewer: Really? Jose: Oh, I’m just an amateur. Anyway, I …I’m always taking pictures of the building in this city. You know, the Victorians, the modern skyscrapers downtown, MOMA …… Interviewer: MOMA. You mean , the Museum of Modern Art? Jose: Right. There’s such a variety of buildings in this city. The architecture is really great. I also have taken pictures of other structures, like the Golden Gate Bridge it looks totally different when the weather changes. Interviewer: Wow! That’s interesting. Ah, well, Vicki, it’s your turn. What do you like to do? Vicki: I like to explore the different neighborhoods. Yesterday I went to the Italian neighborhood, North Beach, to buy some pastries and have a cup of espresso. Today I’m going down to the Mission District to get a burrito for lunch. Interviewer: Hey, sounds like you like to eat! Vicki: Yes. Actually, I like the Mission a lot. It’s a Hispanic neighborhood. We don’t have anything like that where I e from. Interviewer: Uh, well, that’s about it. Any final ments? Jose: No, not really. Vicki: I just like to say that this is the great place to live，It’s small after get around easy but big enough to offer all the advantages of large cities，I’m glad I got the chance to study here Lindsay: So, Eric, how long have you lived in New York? Eric: All my life. I was born here. Sounds like you’re new in town. Lindsay: Two months. I just moved here from Michigan, Eric: Wow! That’s a big change. New York must be quite a shock. Lindsay: Well, not exactly. I lived here once before, when I went to graduate school. So, I …I guess you could say that I’m used to life in New York, if that’s possible. Eric: when did you live here? Lindsay: Oh, let’s see, …it must have been about eight years ago. Boy, the city sure has changed since then. Eric: I supposed so. I mean, they’re really cleaned up Times Square. It used to be some dirty. I mean, now it’s just full of tourists. Lindsay: Yeah. And the subways seem to run more on schedule now.\\ Eric: Basically, I think the city is safer anywhere you go, probably because we have so many more police officers on the street. Lindsay: Oh, that’s for sure! You know, though, one thing I can’t get used to is the noise especially those garbage trucks! They e at five in the morning and are so loud. The noise wakes me up every time! Eric: I guess I’ve lived here so long I don’t hear it anymore. I can sleep through just about anything. You know the one thing I am tired of – the weather. I mean, I’m not sick and tired of these long, cold winters. I’m thinking about moving next year. Lindsay: Really? Eric: Yeah. I mean, like I said, I’ve live here all my life, and I feel like I need some kind of change. You know, a new environment. it’s time to get out of New York. Lindsay: Hmm. Not me! I love the nightlife: the theater and the great restaurants. I can’t wait to get out and discover all that New York is offering! Unit 4Lisa: Uh, well, I39。t have to go the office every day. And I don39。ll watch a funny movie or go to a friend39。s always too much to do. I cope with all this stress by going to the gym at least four times a week. My friend got me started weight lifting, and now I39。m back in high school, and in my dream, the school I looks mostly the same as it did, but much bigger. The weird thing is ……that although I39。s very embarrassing. No one seems to notice that I39。t be there in the first place. But still, it39。ve lost my class schedule. I start walking through the halls trying to find the main office. I can39。t find it. I know I39。s almost over so I39。t know what the homework is, and I think I39。s the dream. I think I have that dream when I am worried or overwhelmed about something that is happening in my life at the time. Rick: my name is Rick, and I sometimes have this
