[User] No, it's not going to be George. I don't think it's Andy either. He is involved with the boss's sister in-law. And you know how whipped our boss is.

[Assistant] That's true. What about Lisa? I bet there's nobody who could do a worse job than her.

[User] Lisa? No way. I've heard a rumor that she and the boss were having an affair. You know rumors can't come out from nowhere.

[User] *Posture slouched, slow movements* No, that would be crazy. But then who will it be? Oh dear, it must be me. I should have known it! Why else would he have talked to me alone about the downsizing. What should I do? I've got a family to support.

[Assistant] *Shoulders slump, eyes downcast* Well, it could be me too. But I am not too worried. This place is suffocating me with this boss being such a hard-ass and colleagues who barely know how to get dressed in the morning. It would almost be a blessing to be fired from this place.

[User] Anything else?

[Assistant] Don’t boast and don’t be modest.

[User] What do you mean by this? You can’t do the two things at the same time.

[User] *Arms raised in excitement* The tea smells good. What tea is it?

[Assistant] It's a special green tea named Longing Tea from Zhejiang province.

[User] What's special about it except its pleasant smell?

[Assistant] You can see that it keeps the original color of the tea leaves very well.

[User] They must have some special methods to do this during the process.

[Assistant] Probably. I love green tea. It's one of my daily necessities.

[User] Then, do you have “tai time” every day? I mean, do you drink tea at a settled time?

[Assistant] Not really. But I really love to have after-meal tea.

[User] What's the advantage about tea?

[Assistant] There are a lot of them. In hot or warm days, tea helps to dispel the heat and brings on an instant cool with a feeling of relaxation. Moreover, the tea leaves contain a number of chemicals which are good for people's health.

[User] Does that mean the stronger the better?

[Assistant] No. Constant drinking of over-strong tea would do harm to people's health. So don't make your tea too strong.

[User] Got it. What's the proper time for tea?

[Assistant] It's fine for most time of the day. But don't have tea before bedtime.

[User] Why?

[Assistant] *Laughs, body relaxed* It will give rise to occasional insomnia. OK, let's enjoy the tea before it gets cold.

[Assistant] *Fists clench, eyes burning* Now I see. You charge next to nothing for an international ticket, but when it comes to charging for any other small thing, you charge an arm and a leg! So tell me, miss, how much will I have to pay for all of this.

[Assistant] *Posture slouched, slow movements* I am afraid not. Have you lost your passport?

[User] I think so. I can't find it anywhere in my hotel room and I remember the last place I used it yesterday was in this department store.

[Assistant] Where exactly did you use your passport in the store?

[User] In the shoe department. I had to show it to pay for these shoes with my traveler's cheques.

[Assistant] *Hands fidget, deep sigh* Well, let me call the shoe department to see if they’ Ve found a passport. Sorry, your passport hasn't turned up there either.

[User] Then what shall I do?

[Assistant] You can fill in this lost property report and I will keep my eye out for it. These kinds of things usually turn up eventually, but I suggest you contact your embassy and tell them about your situation, so they can issue you a new passport in case it doesn't show up.

[User] You are right. Do you have a pen?

[Assistant] Here you are.

[Assistant] I think he hasn't made any new friends yet. He's just a little lonely.

[Assistant] You've seen it before?

[User] Yes, I saw that movie the first day it came out in theaters.

[Assistant] Didn't you laugh through the whole movie? I did.

[User] *Eyes crinkle, joyful expression* Me too. That movie brought tears to my eyes.

[Assistant] *Laughs, body relaxed* Mine too.

[User] *Laughs, body relaxed* I have it on DVD at my house if you want to come over and watch it.

[Assistant] Do you accept check?

[User] *Hands fidget, deep sigh* No, I'm sorry we don't. We accept credit cards and cash.

[Assistant] Well, I'd like to pay by cash.

[User] OK. (A few minutes later) Sorry to keep you waiting. Here is your change.

[Assistant] *Laughs, body relaxed* Thanks.


[System] This conversation is focused on day-to-day life. Act as the person the user is speaking to and make up details as necessary, but keep everything natural and believable.

[User] I plan to add an introductory letter behind the resume to increase the probabilities of success in the interview.

[Assistant] That's a good idea. Do you know how to write an introductory letter?

[User] I'm not sure of that. Do you know?

[Assistant] I just know a little. First you need to include your basic information, such as your name, age, gender and major, etc.

[User] Yes, I think so, too. I must introduce myself in truth.

[Assistant] I think the most important is that you need to show the employer that you are qualified for that job.

[User] So I should write my strengths in the introductory letter, especially those related to the work.

[Assistant] Yes, thus the employer can know you very well, and then decide whether you are the right person.

[User] *Posture light, bouncy* You are very nice to tell me those.

[Assistant] *Eyes crinkle, joyful expression* I wish you good luck!

[User] Do you have any plans for dinner tonight?

[Assistant] No, I was thinking of putting a frozen pizza in the oven or something. How about you?

[User] I was thinking maybe we could make dinner together tonight. What do you think?

[Assistant] *Shoulders slump, eyes downcast* I'm absolutely useless at cooking!

[User] I could teach you how to cook something healthy. Frozen pizza are so bad for you!

[Assistant] I know they aren't good for you, but they are cheap, convenient, and fairly tasty.

[User] I recently saw a recipe for spicy chicken curry in a magadize. Maybe we could try that?

[Assistant] Yeah, why not. Do you have all the ingredients?

[User] I bought all the ingredients this morning, so let's start!

[Assistant] What do we do first?

[User] first, you need to wash the vegetables and then chop them into little pieces.

[Assistant] Ok. Should I heat the wok?

[User] Yes. Once it gets hot, put a little oil in it, add the vegetables and stir-fry them for a few minutes.

[Assistant] What about the chicken?

[User] That needs to be cut into thin strips about 3 cm long and then it can be stir-fried on its own until its cooked through.

[Assistant] How about the rice?

[User] I'll prepare that. Do you prefer white rice or brown rice?

[Assistant] White rice, please. None of that healthy brown stuff for me!

[User] Can effect shipment during September?

[Assistant] I don't think we can make it.

[User] Then when at the earliest can we expect the shipment?

[Assistant] By the middle of October.

[User] It's too late. You see, in our market October is the season for the kind of commodity. So the goods must be shipped before October or we won't be ready for the season.

[Assistant] Well, considering our long standing good business relationship, we'll try hard to negotiate with our manufacturers for an earlier delivery.

[User] Thanks. Then may I suggest that you put down in the contract 'shipments on September 15 or earlier'?

[Assistant] Let me see. Now the workers will have to work on three shifts for it. Well, we can manage it on 20th September. That's the best we can do.
