M: Oh, hello, Li Ming. Come on in, and how"re you been keeping recently?
W: Quite all right, thanks, Dr. Francis. How"s your project going?
M: Very smoothly, I should say. I"m playing a consultancy role, really. I"ve only been here in China a month, but I"m already on very good terms with my colleagues in the Department of Computer Science. Well, I"m happy that you could come. Do sit down. please.
W: Dr. Francis, do you know I"ve got a chance to go to Cambridge in August? I wonder if you could tell me something about Britain.
M: Certainly. Well, I was actually brought up in Scotland. Erm, in fact, I"ve never been to Cambridge. But well... yes, I"m sure I can give you some useful tips. Now, what do you want to know, Li Ming?
W: Things like weather. What"s the usual temperature there?
M: Mmm, the temperature in Scotland is 22, or 23 degrees centigrade, on average, I think. But Cambridge would be warmer, around 25, I would guess, because it"s down south.
W: Oh, that"s nice. Do you know it is 34 here? Last year it reached 39. By the way, Where do you think I should stay?
M: Oh, that"s important. You can, er... I suppose, stay in the college-owned fiats, which are often near where you have your classes, and some are even on campus. That would certainly be convenient.
W: Yes, it would.
M: But it can also be a disadvantage because you are, in a sense, separated from ordinary society. You"re a language teacher, and I think learning from society is a valuable experience.
W: Yes, yes, exactly, so what"s the alternative?
M: Maybe finding an English host family. ! know of a student Ali from the Middle East. He told me that he had learnt a lot by staying with a British family.
W: Thank you. I think it"s quite a good suggestion. By the way, Dr. Francis, do you think I could...?
