(Text 2)
M: Ruth, I've got this terrible cold and I have to see a doctor. I am afraid I can't go to the class. Could you help me hand in my lab report to Dr. Davidson?
W: Sure, no problem. Just take care of yourself and don't worry about the class.
(Text 3)
M: Marie, if no one takes care of your children while you're away, Jennifer and I will be glad to have them stay with us.
W: That's very kind of you. But they've already left for their Grandma's. You know, Suzy lives close by.
(Text 4)
M: Hurry up with your food, Sally. They say there's a big storm coming. We'd better get home before that.
W: Okay, I'm done. Let's get back to the car. Could you carry these shopping bags?
M: Oh, sure.
(Text 5)
M: We deep fried fish three days ago in the kitchen, but the unpleasant smell stays.
W: There is a method you can try. Every time you make coffee, dry the leftover coffee grounds and keep them in small bowls, then place the bowls in the kitchen.
（Text 6）
W:Are you a football fan, Gomez?
M: Yes, I go to the stadium whenever there’s a good game,and if I can’t get a ticket, I watch the game on TV.
That way, they are less exciting, though.
W: Is the ticket expensive?
M: It depends. It usually costs about 20 to 50 dollars. Last time I paid 25.
W: That’s not very expensive. Maybe we can go together some time.
M: Great! It’ll be more fun to watch a game with a friend.
（Text 7）
W:You were out the whole afternoon, Alex. What did you do?
M:I took a walk by myself.
W: You just kept walking and walking for four hours?

M: Do you know what's wrong with the car?
W: I'm not exactly sure. I think there is a problem with the engine. Err… I wonder if you could give me a ride to the hotel tomorrow morning.
M: Sure. When shall I be at your place?
W: Well, what about 8:00? From my place to Shelton, we have to drive through the quarters, so we'd better leave early to avoid the traffic.
M: OK. No problem. It takes twenty minutes to reach your place. So I'll set off at 7:40. By the way, do you also need me to drive you home tomorrow afternoon?
W: No, John will be back then, and he'll get me home. Thank you, Michael.
M: That's okay. See you tomorrow.

W: Hello, everyone. Today I'll talk about how to improve your Pronunciation. Language researchers say Pronunciation and fluency are the biggest barriers, followed by grammar, in effective spoken English. However, most people don't regard Pronunciation as a very important part of communication skills. They're more focused on vocabulary. One reason is that most people are not even aware of their misPronunciations. So it's important to first find out the words you misPronounce. You should listen to experts, by experts, I mean those who are less likely to make Pronunciation mistakes. When listening to them, pay attention to words that sound strange, strange because you Pronounce the same words differently. When you come across such words, check a dictionary to confirm their exact Pronunciations. You can also search for difficult-to-Pronounce words and names, and make a list of them. The last suggestion is to read aloud. Now you've got the correct Pronunciations of the words, it's time to practice reading them every day.

W：不，约翰那时会回来，他会送我回家。谢谢你，迈克尔。
M:没关系。明天见。
（文本10）
W：大家好。今天我要谈谈如何提高你的发音。语言研究人员说，在有效的英语口语中，发音和流利是最大的障碍，其次是语法。然而，大多数人并不认为发音是沟通技巧的重要组成部分。他们更注重词汇。一个原因是大多数人甚至没有意识到自己的发音错误。所以首先找出你读错的单词是很重要的。你应该听专家的话，所谓专家，我指的是那些不太可能犯发音错误的人。在听的时候，要注意那些听起来很奇怪的单词，因为你对同一个单词的发音不同。当你遇到这样的词时，查字典确认它们的准确发音。您还可以搜索难发音的单词和名称，并列出它们的列表。最后一个建议是大声朗读。现在你已经掌握了单词的正确发音，是时候每天练习阅读了。

One reason is that most people are not even aware of their misPronunciations. So, it’s important to first find out the words you misPronounce. You should listen to experts. By experts, I mean those who are less likely to make Pronunciation mistakes. When listening to them, pay attention to words that sound strange. Strange because you Pronounce the same words differently. When you come across such words, check a dictionary to confirm their exact Pronunciations. You can also search for difficult-to-Pronounce words and names and make a list of them. The last suggestion is to read aloud. Now you’ve got the correct Pronunciations of the words. It’s time to practice reading them every day.
