University and
Campus Life
Chen
：
Now, let’s talk about our campus life.
I like our
library best. There are so
many books there. I like reading
books,
and there are many old books which cannot be
easily
found in book shops. The
building looks like a castle; it
seems
the building is very large and I always get lost
in
library. Wu
：
Woo, you are so brave. I don’t think
it’s
safe to stay in the library. I
always hung around in the
campus,
especially in summer evening. The old building
looks
very grand in the dim light of
sunset. And I can always meet
some
friends, it feels good to meet a friend by
accident and
have a free chat with him.
Dong
：
Yeah, I always see you
in
the campus at night. I like hung
around too. While, I like do
sports
better, such as playing badminton, swimming. I
don’t
like outdoor sports
because I don’t think the air is healthy
enough to breath. To be honest, as a
hard working man, I
spend most of the
part-time studying in classrooms. I think
it’s really convenient for us to study
in our school. The
students in the
classroom are always very quiet, and you can
focus on your books easily. That’s why
I can get high marks
in almost all the
exams. Chen
：
Err…..I’m not a hard
working
man; I spend a lot of time reading novels. I don’t
like this campus at all, so I always
devote myself in the
fantastic world
created by the writers. On the other hand, I
think reading book helps a lot in my
study; it improves my
imagination a
lot. Wu
：
I spend much time
playing guitar, and
I’m the rhythm
guitar of a rock band called P.A. Our style
i
s death metal, and it’s
always difficult to play well.
Every member of the band
admire the time we play together.
It’s
really exciting to play that kind of music. I’m
really
grateful that our school can
provide places to run over our
songs
and hold concerts. Dong
：
I
can imagine the girls
screaming besides
the stage. But I can hardly accept that
kind of music. What a happy talk. I’m
grate that all of us
will get further
education here.
Nations and Traditions
Chen
：
Let’s talk about some different
countrie
s. Which
country do
you like to go for your graduation tour?
Wu
：
I
would like
to go to Japan. I think Japan is a very strange
country. It’s both modern and
traditional. There are many
shopping
centers and bars and there are many temples as
well.
Japan is famous for its Fuji Mouton,
hot springs and
Gasher show. And
Japanese food is also very famous because
it’s very healthy, but it’s very
expensive. Transportation
is very
convenient; you will never worry that you can not
by
the tickets. It seems that Japanese
are all well educated and
they are
always very polite to each other and Japanese
women
smell almost all the time. These
can make you feel relaxed
and happy. As
Japan is a high-tech country, electronic
products are very cheep there. And it’s
an importan
t reason
why many
Chinese want to visit Japan.
Dong
：
Well, I
don’t
think Japanese are polite to us
Chinese. And sometimes it’s
not safe to
Chinese. I think Germany is the best choice to me.
There are many casuals and churches.
Most of them have a long
history. And I
like old western buildings. I would like to
visit the museums to get to know German
history. My major is
machinery design
manufacturing and automation; many German
universities
are the top in this field around the world. The
most famous one is Asshen. There is a
saying, if Asshen says
Asshen is the
second best in the world, MIT dare not to say
MIT is the first one. If I’m lucky
enough, I want to visit
Asshen. German
beer is well known around the world; I must
have a try though I’m not good at
dri
nking. Chen
：
I
like
European countries too. I want to
go to France. It’s a
beautiful land
with romance. The nature scenery is very good.
I’m sure I will take many beautiful
photos. I am interested
in the history
of Napoleon’s time. I want to visit the
muse
ums to have a further
study on the history. I’d like
visit
the palaces too, especially Fanersai Palace and
Luvoe
Palace. I know there are many
famous paintings and carvings
in the
Palaces and I really want to have a look. French
dish
is very famous and I
t
hink it’s worth to have a taste.
French perfume is very famous, I’d like
to buy some for my
mother.
Health and
Lifestyle
Chen
：
There are
more and more students smoke cigarettes
in our dormitory. I think this is a
terrible phenomenon.
Sometimes we are
under pressure, but we should relax
ourselves in some other ways. Smoking
is bad for both smokers
and the people
don’t smoke but live besides smokers. And
smoking may cause fire disaster.
Wu
：
Yeah, I agree with you.
I never smoke and I hate the smelling.
As I play rock music
in HIT, many
friends around me smoke. I know them well and
they suffer from health problems
sometime. To be healthy is
very
important, everybody know this, but few people
around us
can do well. In HIT, almost
all male professors are heavy
smokers,
and many of them are over weight. All of
professors
in
my lab are not living healthily, they have no time
to do
sports and they often have to be
drunk when they are having
meals with
their customers. Some of them have heart disease
though they are still very young. This
make me decide not to
be a professor in
a university. Dong
：
But it’s also
very busy working in companies in big
cities. And you may not have time to
take care of you health.
We have to
struggle for houses and family. I would choose a
small city so that I can enjoy a
relaxed and healthy life
though I will
not earn much money. The houses in small cities
are much cheaper, so we won’t worry too
much about houses
though our salaries
are not very high. Chen
：
Yeah, that’s
why the people
living in small cities fell happier than the
people living in big cities. Small
cities are my choice as
well. I want to
cool meals at home because I don’t think
it’s good to eat too much fast food as
most working people
in big cities do.
And I think they waste too much time on the
road everyday.
Dong
：
And I want to play
with my baby
everyday after work. It
seems impossible if every member in
my
family have to waste two to three hours on road.
Small
cities are quieter than big
cities and I don’t like noisy
places.
Science and
Technology
A
：
Who is your
favorite scientist, A? B
：
You mean
scientist like Albert
Einstein, or scientist about anything?
A
：
Anything.
B
：
Oh, en…I think
Steve Jobs is my favorite
science
worker. A
：
Really? So you
like Apples? B
：
Yeah~ I
like every product of Apple, the Ipod,
iphone, ipad,
Itouch…Sometimes I feel
like I had a lust to these
fascinating electronic products.
A
：
Do you own any of them?
Have you ever bought an Apple?
B
：
No~ Although
I’ve always
hope someone could send me
an iphone as a birthday present,
but it
never come true and I could not afford any of the
Apples because they are so expensive in
China. A
：
What
characteristic of Steve Jobs do you
think is most attractive
to you?
B
：
Well, when Steve Jobs
first present the Macbook
Air to the
public, he used an envelope to illustrate how thin
it is by putting the Macbook into the
envelope. This whole
thing is so
fascinating and amazing that I was deeply
impressed by his strong personality in
getting the whole
world to pay
attention on his technology. I think as students
of mechanical engineering and a future
science worker, we
should learn from
his spirit. A
：
Yeah, I see.
Now what about
you C, who is your
favorite scientist? C
：
Sheldon Cooper. A
：
Sheldon is not a real man, he is just a
character! C
：
Yeah~
but he got one master and two doctor
degrees when he was only
20 years old.
Who else could accomplish this? Meanwhile, he
seems to know everything of physics and
always use his
theories to deal with
day-to-day problems. This makes him so
funny and so cute.
A
：
Which act of Sheldon do
you think is
most interesting?
C
：
Well, whenever
Sheldon couldn’t fall
asleep at night,
he would ask his neighbor Penny for
some help. He
would ask her to sing a cute song for him,
which is from his grandma, and this
song goes like this
：
soft kitty, warm kitty, little ball of
fur. Happy kitty,
sleepy kitty, purr
purr purr. A
：
This is really
cute! C
：
What
about you A? Whose is your favorite scientist
then? B
：
Yeah,
whose is your favorite scientist?
A
：
My favorite
scientist is Cynthia Breazeal. She is a
mechatronic engineer
in MIT Media Lab and she leads his team
to create many
amazing robots that not
just interact with things but also
interact with people.
C
：
What do you learn from
her? A
：
I
learn
from her that your engineers should create
machines
that could help us as a
trusted friend to enrich our lives,
to
save our planet and to make the would more
beautiful.
Food and Drink
A
：
What do you have for breakfast, B?
B
：
My breakfast?
Let me see… mos
tly some
instant noodles and soybean milk,
sometimes I would add an egg. If I were
still hungry, I would
eat a steamed
bread or a meat pie. A
：
Interesting, my
breakfast is almost the
same with you! C
：
And so do
mine! A
：
Seems
like the students in HIT do not have too many
options
for their breakfast…What about
your lunch? I think we would
have some
diversity here. B
：
Mostly I
would eat in the
second floor of xueshi
restroom because it’s close to our
dormitory. My favorite food there is
the fried chicken, it
tastes tender and
delicious, and it’s only 3.5 yuan, not
very expensive considering the good
taste it has. A
：
Don’t
you eat any
vegetables? B
：
Yes, I always
order some
cauliflower, cabbage, carrot
and cucumber. I like vegetables.
I
think eating vegetable could make you more healthy
and
stronger. Meanwhile, I always buy
some fruits after dinner
and bring them
to my dormitory. I like apples, bananas and
pears. Since the summer is coming I
prefer watermelon now. A
：
Do you have any drinks?
B
：
Mostly don’t.
but
if I just did
some
sports, I think I will be thirsty and need some
soda
water like spirit and coca cola.
A
：
Don’t you eat
outside,
I mean what else place do you
eat except for school
restraints?
C
：
I eat outside.
A
：
Really? What place?
C
：
At
