Maria: Oh, hi Dave. Long time no see!
Dave:Hi Maria. I was in the neighborhood, so I thought I'd drop by.
Maria:Come in. Have a seat. Would you like something to drink? I have Sprite and orange
juice.
Dave:Sprite would be fine. Uh, so, how have you been? Maria:Oh, not bad. And you?
Dave:Oh, I'm doing OK, but school has been really hectic these days, and I haven't had
time to relax.
Maria:What's your major anyway? Dave:Hotel management.
Maria:Well, what do you want to do after graduation?
Dave:Uh...I haven't decided for sure, but I think I'd like to work for a hotel or travel
agency in this area. How about you?
Maria:Well, when I first started college, I wanted to major in French, but then I realized I
might have a hard time finding a job, so I changed to computer science. With the right skills, landing a job in the computer industry shouldn't be as difficult.
Dave:So, do you have a part-time job to support yourself through school?
Maria:Well, fortunately, I received a four-year academic scholarship that pays for all my
tuition and books.
Dave:Wow, that's great.
Maria:Yeah. How about you? Are you working your way through school? Dave:Yeah. I work three times a week at a restaurant near campus. Maria:Oh, what do you do there? Dave:I'm a cook.
Maria:How do you like your job?
Dave: It's OK. People there are friendly, and the pay isn't bad. FFTTF

Well, I think first of all for first-time students, coming and living on campus in dormitories can provide a certain level of security as well as convenience because it's close to campus facilities and commuting without distances.

studies, rather than to housekeeping. But, of course, students should also be aware that they'll have to obey the rules and regulations relating to student conduct. This is part of the contract with the university for living on campus.
Another option is living off campus in apartments. Like living in dormitories, living in an apartment requires little or no maintenance mainly because that is usually handled by the owner or someone else. Also, if you live off campus, there might be a great amount of flexibility in choosing roommates that you might not have when living on campus. But you should be aware that tenants may be responsible for furnishing their own apartments.
Well, of course, the choice is up to you, but be careful disadvantages of living on and off campus. Good luck. Listening 4 Ex 1: Ex 2:Scripts:

Grace: Yeah. You know, that's my best memory, going on that peace demonstration. You know, somehow
getting arrested for something you believe in isn't scary at all.
Curtis: No, it isn't at all. But it did help that there were 500 other students getting arrested along with us. Martin: That's true.
Curtis: That was a great day, though.
Grace: Hey, you all remember our last day of college?
Curtis: Graduation? What's to remember? None of us went to graduation. Martin: Do you regret now, after all these years, that we skipped the ceremony? Grace: Not me. I don't think we missed anything that day.
Curtis: No, nothing at all. And that picnic that the three of us had by the stream, remember? Grace: That was great.
Curtis: Drinking wine, playing the guitar, singing. Oh, that was worth more to me than any graduation
ceremony.
Martin: That was the best graduation ceremony there could have been. Curtis: Mm-hmm.

Mother: Lucinda? I haven't heard about her before. Who is she?
Justin: You know. Lucinda, I'm sure I've told you about her. She's doing the same courses as I am.
I've known her for ages. We often help each other with work. Sometimes we go to the pub or cook a meal together. Today, we've been testing each other on Economics and Marketing. She's just gone out to get a Chinese takeaway.
Mother: Oh, yes. When exactly are you coming home?
Justin: In two weeks. Term ends on the 30th. Oh, Mum, would it be OK if Lucinda came to stay for
the holiday? Erm, we have to do a project together.
Mother: That's fine, love. She's very welcome to stay. We'd like to meet her.
Justin: Thanks, Mum. Lucinda's just come back with the food. I'll ring again before I come home.
Love to Dad.
Mother: Bye, love. And good luck in the exams. Justin: Thanks. I need all the luck I can get. Bye. Mother: Take care of yourself and work hard. Bye.

penalize students for not going to class. A student who would rather sit in the bar than go to class has the option to do so. A student must be mature enough to realize that he needs to go to class. Second, college students have to motivate themselves to do their assignments. Many students are away from home, so the old enforcers, their parents, aren't there to ask if their reading is finished. No college teacher hounds a student for his homework. He simply puts down a zero and says nothing. It's up to the student to get the work done. Finally, college students are responsible for taking the required exams. A student who misses a test can't expect a professor even to mention it. It is totally his responsibility to arrange to make up the exam. Only students mature enough to accept these responsibilities are ready for college.

Economics Bookkeeping Scripts:
√√√
Man: So you were studying for how long --let me see-- for four years altogether? Can you tell me a little
about that course?
Woman: Well, it was a very difficult, very tough course. I did English for the entire four years, so by the
end, I was quite good. As for the Business Correspondence part, which I did in the second year and third year, it was really mostly English too. I also did one year of French, in the fourth year, learning to meet people, or answer the telephone. Then there were three years of Secretarial Practice, starting in the second year; and three years of Shorthand, though I never got very good at it. And, well, I suppose the other subjects just fitted around that: Accounting in year three and four, Economics in the first and second and Bookkeeping in the third...no, no, in the second year, before we started Accounting.
Listening 4 The Bully Asleep by John Walsh One afternoon, when grassy Scents through the classroom crept, Bill Craddock laid his head Down on his desk, and slept. The children came round him: Jimmy, Roger, and Jane; They lifted his head timidly And let it sink again.
\"Look, he's gone sound asleep, Miss,\" Said Jimmy Adair;
\"He stays up all the night, you see. His mother doesn't care.\" \"Stand away from him, children.\" Miss Andrews stooped to see. \"Yes, he's asleep; go on
With your writing and let him be.\" \"Now's a good chance!\" whispered Jimmy; And he snatched Bill's pen and hid it. \"Kick him under the desk hard; He won't know who did it.\"

\"Fill all his pockets with rubbish—Paper, apple-cores, chalk.\" So they plotted, while Jane Sat wide-eyed at their talk. Not caring, not hearing, Bill Craddock he slept on; Lips parted, eyes closed—Their cruelty gone.
\"Stick him with pins!\" muttered Roger. \"Ink down his neck!\" said Jim. But Jane, tearful and foolish, Wanted to comfort him.
