M: Hello, Susan. What’s worth watching this evening
W: Well, Tom, let me see. And it’s a very good night on all channels. After the news at 7:00 on BTV 1. I think my first recommendation would be. the Life program at 8:30 under the title Good Husband Contest. It’s an amazing program. Some forty top candidates have been elected from 3,600 husbands registered for the contest.
M: Well, it sounds well worth watching.
W: Now, after that and still on BTV 1 at 9: 05 there’s a documentary special. It’s called Chinese Mothers.
M: Really It sounds interesting.
W: Over on Channel BTV 2 at 7:40 there is an eight-part series called There Is Sea over the Mountain and...
M: Now, anything for music7
W: Yes. China Music after that series at 9:20 and on BTV 3 at 8:18 there is a live telecast of the May Day Party featuring famous songs from 1950s and 1960s. Veteran singers Guo Song, Ma Yutao, Li Shuangjiang and Li
M: Hello, Susan.
W: Macman Dossor, my favorite customer. How are you
M: I’m fine. I heard you weren’t well.
W: Well, I was away for a couple of weeks. But I an, fine now. Er, you were going to the States, weren’t you
M: Well, I didn’t make it. What I’ve been doing is reorganizing the whole department nonstop since I saw you, and I just haven’t had a moment to myself. This is the first time I’ve been in here since Christmas.
W: Well, it’s good to see you again. Are you ready to order
M: Hello, Susan, come in and take a seat.
W: Thank you.
M: The reason I want to see you is I’m worried about your grades. Last year you were a straight-A student, but over the last semester you hardly even get any B’s. I know that you’re a very bright student, so I wondered if you had any problem.
W: Thank you for your concern, Dr. Brown. I know I could be doing better, but my husband is working full-time now, so he can’t look after the kids so much. I always end up writing my assignments with two kids running round the room.
M: There is a kindergarten in the downtown campus. Why don’t you drop your kids in the kindergarten and then go and do your assignments in the library
W: Thank you. Maybe I’ll try that.
