W: Great idea! Right, I’ll call the restaurant right now. What time shall I book the table for?

M: Wait a minute! That’s Monday to Saturday. On Sundays it only opens from 7 p. m. to 9 p. m. for traditional Sunday dinner. Yummy! I love roast dinners!

W: Yeah, me too. That’s no good for my sister though. She’s a vegetarian! M: Oh yes, I forgot. I wonder if they serve some vegetarian dishes, too. W: They do! Look, it says “vegetarian dishes available”. M: Great! I’ll call Jill and see if she can come at once!

M: Yes, that’s right. And you are Sue? I haven’t seen you since we were kids! W: Oh, I know. Gosh, I hate to think. . . it must have been, oh, twenty years ago. M: At least.

W: You know, we have people here from all over the place. Do you recognize everyone? M: Hmm, I think. . . Wait a minute. Who’s that in the yellow dress? W: In the yellow. . . oh, that’s Aunt Gertrude, from Chicago.

M: She’s so thin now. Who’s that woman over there with the long hair?

W: Long hair, let me see. . . Oh, you mean in the orange dress? That’s Cousin Emily. You haven’t ever met her. She lives with her family in Bermuda. So we don’t see her often.

M: And Aunt Jane. She is looking so old.

W: That’s not too surprising. She must be in her eighties by now. M: Wow. Does she still live in Boston?

W: No. She moved to Atlantic City a few years ago.

M: Well. It’s been great talking to you, but I guess I should go now and meet some of these long-lost relatives. W: OK. Great to see you.

Hello, everyone. Welcome to our school. I am more than pleased to know that you love to learn Chinese. Now I’d like to share with you some tips on Chinese learning.

Difficult as it may seem, there still exist some efficient ways to learn the language. As for beginners, it is a good choice to start from listening and speaking. So try to take the chance to practice more during your stay here. We are all glad to talk with you in some simple Chinese. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. Thus, I do believe you can learn some daily Chinese here. Thanks to the information age, millions of Chinese movies and TV series and shows are there online, such as Youku and Tudou, for you to enjoy and improve both your listening and speaking. If you find it hard to keep going alone, you may attend some courses in some Confucius Institutes in the USA. Hopefully the tips above will be helpful to you. Thank you.
