T: let me ask you this. Do you send files over the internet?
H: a lot .we send graphics files back and forth all the time.
T: so you download a lot of files, too?
H: that’s why we got a faster modem. Large files take forever to download.
T: listen to what I am telling you, get a direct internet connection.
H: is it that much faster?
T: you can download most files in no time and get back to your designing work.
H: all right. Let’s put them on the list.
T: speaking of lists, that’s what we should be working on.
H: I started making a wish list, a list of the computer equipment.
T: let’s take a look.
H: it’s not quite complete.
T: It looks like you listed every peripheral on the market.
H: looks that way, doesn’t it?
T: you want all the staff. But do you need it?
H: yeah, sure, don’t I?
T: before you purchase any hardware, you should do more research.
H: where should I do this research?
T: get on the net, starts surf, check out what’s hot.
H: where on the net, do I look?
T: search for the hardware and software reviews.
H: ok, I will read the hardware and software reviews, then what?
T: email people who use the hardware, email designers who use the software.
H: ok, I will start searching on the net.

H: In my research on the internet, I learned one thing.
T: what’s that?
H: you can never have enough memory.
T: that works for both people and computers.
H: designing software takes a lot computer memory.
T: most computer applications take enormous amounts of memory.
H: but especially design software. Graphics files are huge.
T: so you need a lot of memory.
H: and storage, I need a lot of disk space to store these files.
T: and you back them up?
H: right! If the computer crashes, I don’t want to lose my work.
T: so you need a lot of storage on your computer.
H; and some backup storage devices.
T: sure. You have to back up copies of your file.
H; once my computer crashed, I lost all my work, I had no backup files.
T: no backup, eh? You only did that once.
H: isn’t there shareware available to help you backup files?
T; sure! You can pull the applications down from the shareware site.
H: I think my browser has at least one shareware link.
T: you must. Pull your browser to one of those browsers.
H: what about news groups on shareware?
T: there must be newsgroups on shareware.
H: there are newsgroups on everything.
T: cover or basis, looking every corner on the net.

T: how did your web search go?
H: super! I visited lots of vender sites.
T: did you check out their product pages?
H: sure! That’s why I found the technical specs.
T: what about the facts? Did you read the vendor’s fax?
H: The faxes were really useful. A lot of people had the same questions I had.
T: so these vendor sites answered all your questions?
H: all my technical questions anyway.
T: where else did you search on the net?
H: some users had put up the sites on some specific products.
T: well, when the comments are puzzletivities.
H: you mean users post negative comments, too? What a surprise!
T: some. But the topics were more on how to use the products.
T: and how to avoid their bugs?
H: those are good tips get posted on those user sites.
T: did you email any users?
H: no, not yet. I don’t think I need to.
T: you go enough information just from the sites?
H: every site had links to other sites.
T: so you just surf from site to site?
H: I follow the links from site to site, reading about designing software.
T: and you know what you want now?
H: I got a good picture just by following the links.

T: Mr. H, you are worried about making more investment.
H: especially investing in computers. The technology changes so rapidly.
T: and you have to change with it.
H: when I started, I had one simple phone, one single-line phone.
T: life was simpler then.
H: that was only last year. Now I have a multi-line phone, a beeper and a cell phone
T: no e-mail?
H: of course e-mail and voice mail and fax.
T: you should be used to changing technology.
H: I can’t keep up with the changes. They happen too fast.
T: technology really changed the way we do business.
H: I know, with today’s technology, there is no down time.
T: do you staying in touch with the office all the time?
H: my clients can reach me anywhere by cell phone.
T: so if they can get in touch with any time, your office is always open.
H: as I said, no down time.
T: you could turn off your cell phone.
H: what? How was my clients get hold of me?
T: your clients could always email you.
H: and they do. I have computer savvy clients.
T: e-mail is really convenient. All you need is a computer and a modem.
H: and a fast and reliable connection to the internet.
T: is your modem fast, isn’t it?
H: I had to get a faster modem to keep up.
T: why don’t you get a direct connection to the internet? A direct internet connection is necessity for you.
H: a costly necessity.

好的
如果收集到好的长的文本 我们会适当增加积分的.

各位好， 我也是新加入的，这里确实是个好地方噢，资料齐全，在线练习也方便。

不过也感觉，收集一篇原文才30-50集分真的有些少了，按回贴，一个贴子2分的话，15次就够了，比收集一篇原文简单多了，要不按英文单词数来计分，而且能否将计分标准提高一点？

Ohhhhhhh.
Maybe you and I see life with two different visions,
and neither one of us is wrong or right.
And maybe we're too serious and don't wanna listen.
I just wanna make you laugh tonight.
We're like day and night, night and day.
We are both so different in so many ways.
We're like night and day, day and night,
and we go together just like black and white.
Seems you're always out one door when I'm in the other.
Midler Bette
It's so hard to find some quiet time.
(So hard to find the time)
Wish that we could spend our lives alone with each other,
and never think about the world outside.
We're like day and night, night and day.
We are oh, so different in so many ways.
We're like night and day, day and night.
Still we know it's gonna be all right.
And if we never really get the picture right,
how many of us ever really win the fight?
I never want to lose your love,
or let the distance get the best of us,
'cause time is moving fast enough!
It's true that you and I don't think alike.
But when I look into your eyes and all is forgiven,
(all is forgiven)
all I wanna do is hold you tight.
We're like day and night, night and day.
We are both so different in so many ways.
We're like night and day, day and night.
Still we know it's gonna be all right.
We're like night and day, day and night.
We go together just like black and white.
We're like, we're like, we're like, we're like
day and night, night and day,
day and night, night and day.
We're like, we're like, we're like
day and night, night and day.
Like black and white.
