  1. Lesson Thirty Five: Dialogue Chatting with Chinese Friends
  2. (Zhang Guahua and Wang Xiaofang are third-year students of the English
  3. Department at Beijing University. They are also boyfriend and
  4. girlfriend. Both of them know Renmei and Xueyou. One day, Guohua and
  5. Xiaofang went to Renmei's dorm to chat.)
  6. (Xiaozhang knocks at the door.)
  7. Renmei: (I'm) coming. (Renmei opened the door.) Guohua, Xiaofang,
  8. welcome, welcome. Please come in. Xueyou is also here.
  9. Xueyou: Guohua, Xiaofang, haven't seen you for a while. How is
  10. everything going?
  11. Guohua: We have been busy lately. I attended a GRE exam coaching
  12. class. Xiaofang is making use of the break and working in a
  13. foreign invested company.
  14. Renmei: What, Guohua, you want to take the GRE exam, and apply for
  15. scholarship from American universities, right?
  16. Guohua: Right. My major is British and American literature. I really
  17. hope that I can go to graduate school in the U.S. and pursue a
  18. doctorate in British and American literature.
  19. Xueyou: That's a very good idea. (If you) want to truly understand the
  20. language and the culture of a country, (you) should go to that
  21. country to study and live for a period of time.
  22. Guohua: Right. Renmei, Xueyou, is this the reason why you come to study
  23. in China?
  24. Renmei: Yes. Before we came to China, I had also taken many Chinese
  25. classes. I had conversation class, grammar class, calligraphy
  26. class, etc. My Chinese teachers all taught very well. However,
  27. the time in class was nonetheless limited. I did not have many
  28. opportunities to practice Chinese. After I came to Beijing,
  29. everyday, what I hear and what I see are all Chinese. I also
  30. have many opportunities to talk to my Chinese teachers,
  31. classmates and friends. Xueyou and I have made rapid progress
  32. in our Chinese.
  33. Xiaofang: How is your class schedule?
  34. Xueyou: Very tight. Everyday we have four hours of classes in the morning.
  35. We have to review the lessons and do homework in the afternoon
  36. and at night.
  37. Guohua: Have you had any exams?
  38. Renmei: Every week there is a quiz. Last week's quiz was very difficult.
  39. I didn't do very well. This week, I want to review my lessons
  40. well, and prepare for next week's quiz.
  41. Xiaofang: I didn't know that your study is so busy. There are many
  42. interesting places in Beijing. Have you been anywhere?
  43. Xueyou: Yes. Last Sunday we went to the Great Wall with our conversation
  44. class teacher, Teacher Lin. The Great Wall is really
  45. magnificent. A common saying goes: "If you fail to reach the
  46. Great Wall you are not a man." After we went to the Great Wall,
  47. we truly understood the meaning of this saying. In the future,
  48. if there is any opportunity, both of us want to go to the Great
  49. Wall again.
  50. Renmei: The day we went to the Great Wall, we also brought the
  51. camera with us. Teacher Lin took a lot of pictures for us.
  52. Yesterday, we went to the post office and mailed letters and
  53. pictures to our parents and friends in the U.S.
  54. Xiaofang: Have you been to the Temple of Heaven?
  55. Xueyou, Renmei: No, we haven't.
  56. Xiaofang: My home is near the Temple of Heaven. I know that there is
  57. a very good Xi'an dumpling restaurant there. This Saturday,
  58. Guohua and I would like to invite you to go to the Temple of
  59. Heaven with us. After that, we can go to the Xi'an dumpling
  60. restaurant together.
  61. Renmei: Great. I am going to bring my camera on Saturday. Let's take
  62. a lot of pictures.
  63. Xueyou: Renmei, didn't you say that you are going to review your lessons
  64. well and prepare for next week's exam?
  65. Renmei: I can review on Sunday. Guohua, Xiaofang, what would you say?
  66. Guohua, Xiaofang: Right. You study very hard on weekdays. During the
  67. weekend, you should take a good rest.

  98. 人美:我们去长城的那一天,还带着相机。 林老师给我们照了很多照片。 我们
  99. 昨天去邮局, 给在美国的父母和朋友寄了信和照片。

  212. Lesson Thirty Five: Article Living in Beijing University
  213. In order to study Chinese and know more about the Chinese culture, Xueyou and Renmei came to the Chinese capital Beijing from the United States. By now, they have been studying and living in Beijing Unviersity for almost two months. Last Sunday, Xueyou and Renmei went to the post office. Renmei sent a letter and some pictures to her mom and dad. She has also received her Dad's letter encouraging her to make full use of this opportunity and study Chinese hard. The study life in Beijing University is busy and rich. Everyday, their class schedule is full. Usually, they have classes in the morning, studying grammar, speaking and composition. In the meantime, they also take some classes that introduce Chinese culture. Both Xueyou and Renmei are very interested in Chinese culture. In class, they listen carefully to the teachers and take notes. (As to) what the teachers teach in class, some they can fully understand, some they can't understand all that well. (For) things that they don't understand, they go and ask their teachers for help. In the afternoon, sometimes they go to the library to look for reference materials, sometimes they review lessons in their dorms. Besides this, there is a quiz every week to evaluate students' achievements. Xueyou and Renmei study very hard. Therefore, they have made rapid progress in their Chinese. They got good grades in every exam. Of course, they also take some spare time to exercise. When the weather is fine, they will go swimming in the swimming pool or work out at the fitness center in the gym. In Beijing, Xueyou and Renmei have also made many Chinese friends. Guohua and Xiaofang are students in the English Department at Beijing University. They are both good friends of Xueyou and Renmei. When the four of them are together, they often chat with each other, talking about their study, campus life, and the differences between Chinese and American college students. More often, they help each other in studying languages. This afternoon, they were chatting for a long time again. Guohua is preparing for the GRE, hoping to pursue a Ph.D.in American University. Xiaofang is making use of the break and working for a foreign-invested company. She is graduating soon, and she hopes to have some work experience, so that she can adjust to her future work smoothly.
