Unit 1 Good evening and welcome to ...
Vocabulary Task
Script and Answers
1.   A:        May I have your attention, please? Thank you for coming. We’re very glad you could make it. Tonight we are celebrating an agreement between A&A Limited and M&N Technologies, Incorporated to participate in a joint venture. ... and so it is an honor to introduce Mr. Tony Blair, president of A&A Limited.
B:         Thank you, Dr. Lawrence. It’s a pleasure to be here. Ladies and Gentlemen, we at A&A are also excited about ...
                (Half an hour later)
        A:        Thanks a lot Mr. Blair for a remarkable speech. Thank you.
        B:        Thank you, Dr. Lawrence. Thank you for your time.
2.        A:        Hey, Nancy, is that you? I can’t believe it! Heard any good presentations?
        B:         Not one. None of them is my cup of tea. I’m bored to death.
        A:        Is that right? Why not?
B:         You know, I’ve been working for over thirty years. There’s nothing new here. These presentations can’t tell me anything new. What’s worse is that tomorrow I’ll have a desk full of papers to work on. Say, you’ve just come back from the States, haven’t you?
3.        A:        Isn’t that the guy my son is crazy about? But I never knew his name.
B:        He’s Larry King, the famous talk show host who is a household name. He always presents quite a variety of points of view when you listen to him.
A:         But, I’ve really got a thing about some talk show hosts. They sometimes are very rude to those who have opposing ideas.
B:         I usually enjoy listening to them. I particularly like it when a caller disagrees with the host. I like to hear how he will defend his ideas.
4.  A:        Say, Tom, I really enjoyed the piece you had in the paper last week. You’ve really worked your way up since I met you on Bob’s wedding day.
B:        Thanks. I’m so flattered. But it’s always nice to have a pat on the back once in a while.
        A:        You deserve it. I can’t say that for all journalists, however.
        B:         I’m sorry to admit that many reporters are giving the profession a bad name.
5.  A:        Judy, I’d like you to meet our new business associate. He will be responsible for the project of “Golden Apple” program.
B:         Pleased to meet you, Mr. Wang. I’m happy to say that the project is now well under way. But we still appreciate your cooperation.
        C:         The pleasure’s mine, Judy. Your work is wonderful.
B:         Thank you for saying so. Would you please follow me to the office? The fellow workers are all waiting for us.

Script

This is your life!
This is your life is one of the most popular small-talk programs on American television. Every week a leading personality is invited to a television studio, without knowing that he or she will be the subject of the program. The host starts the program with a short introduction and then meets the person at the entrance of a specified (指定的)studio and says, “This is your life!” The person then meets friends and relatives from his or her past in the very studio. Studio B is where today’s program is recorded. The program begins at 7:30. It’s 6:15 now and the director, Simon is checking the preparations with his production assistant, Amanda. The subject of tonight’s show will be a world-leading actor, Jackie Chan. The host, as usual, will be Larry King.

Simon:         Let’s just check the arrangements. We’re bringing Jackie Chan here in a studio car.
        Amanda:        Is he informed what program he’s coming to?
        Simon:            No 行 he thinks he’s coming to a discussion program!
        Amanda:        Great! Now, the driver has been told to arrive at exactly 7:25, hasn’t he?
Simon:            Right! The program begins at seven thirty. At that time Jackie will be walking to the studio. Larry King will start his introduction at 7:31, and Jackie will arrive at 7:32. Larry will meet him at the studio entrance ...
        Amanda:         Will Camera B be there?
Simon:           Yes. Then he’ll take him to that seat. It’ll be on Camera A. Jackie will be sitting there during the whole program.
        Amanda:         Where will Larry be sitting?
Simon:           For most of the show Larry will be standing in the middle, and he’ll be on Camera C.  The guests will come through that door, talk to Larry and Jackie ... and then sit over there. Now, is that all clear?
        Amanda:         Yes ... there’s just one thing.
        Simon:         Well, what is it?
        Amanda:         Who’s going to look after the guests during the show?
        Simon:          Jason is.
        Amanda:         And where will they be waiting during the show?
Simon:          In the dressing-room, as usual. Jason will be waiting with them, and he’ll be watching the show on the monitor. He’ll tell them two minutes before they enter.
        Amanda:         I think that’s everything.

My forever valentine

My forever valentine

The traditional holidays in our house when I was a child were spent timing elaborate meals around football games. My father tried to make pleasant chitchat and eat as much as he could during halftime. At Christmas he found time to have a cup or two of holiday beer and do this holly-shaped bow tie. But he didn't truly shine until valentines day.

  I don't know whether it was because work at the office slowed during February or because the football season was over. But valentines day was the time my father chose to show his love for the special people in his life. Over the years I fondly thought of him as my "valentine man".

  My first recollection of the magic he could bring to valentines day came when I was six. For several days I had been cutting out valentines for my classmates. Each of us was to decorate a "mailbox" and put it on our desk for others to give us cards. That box and its contents ushered in a succession of bittersweet memories of my entrance into a world of popularity contests marked by the number of cards received, the teasing of boyfriends/girlfriends and the tender care I gave to the card from the cutest boy in class.

  That morning at the breakfast table I found a card and a gift- wrapped package at my chair. The card was signed "love, dad", and the gift was a ring with a small piece of red glass to represent my birthstone, a ruby. There is little difference between red glass and rubies to a child of six, and I remember wearing that ring with a pride that all the cards in the world could not surpass.

  As I grew older, the gifts gave way to heart-shaped boxes filled with my favorite chocolates and always included a special card signed "love, dad" .In those years my "thank-yous" became more of a perfunctory response. The cards seemed less important, and I took for granted that the valentine would always be there. Long past the days of having a "mailbox" on my desk, I had placed my hopes and dreams in receiving cards and gifts from “significant others”, and "love, dad" just didn't seem quite enough.

  If my father knew then that he had been replaced, he never let it show. If he sensed any disappointment over valentines that didn’t arrive for me, he just tried that much harder to create a positive atmosphere, giving me an extra hug and doing what he could to make my day a little brighter.

  My mailbox eventually had a rural address, and the job of hands delivering candy and cards was relegated to the U.S. Postal service. Never in ten years was my father’s package late-- nor was it on the valentines day eight years ago when I reached into the mailbox to find a card addressed to me in my mother's handwriting.

  It was the kind of card that comes in an inexpensive assortment box sold by a child going door-to-door to try to earn money for a school project. It was the kind of card that you used to get from a grandmother or an aging aunt or, in this case, a dying father. It was the kind of card that put a lump in your throat and tears in your eyes because you knew the person no longer was able to go out and buy a real valentine. It was a card that signaled this would be the last you would receive from him.

  The card had a photograph of tulips on the outside, and on the inside my mother had printed "happy valentines day". Beneath it, scrawled in barely legible handwriting, was "love, dad".

  His final card remains on my bulletin board today. It's a reminder of how special fathers can be and how important it has been to me over the years to know that I had a father who continued a tradition of love with a generosity of spirit, simple acts of understanding and an ability to express happiness over the people in his life.

Those things never die, nor does the memory of a man who never stopped being my valentine.

Frog



The science teacher lecturing his class in biology said, "Now I'll show you

this frog in my pocket." He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a

chicken sandwich. He looked puzzled for a second, thought deeply, and said,

"That's funny. I distinctly remember eating my lunch."
