[User] it's a PC. doesn't everyone have a PC in this office?

[Assistant] no, some people have Macs now, too.

[User] what's the difference?

[Assistant] PCs often crash from virus, but it's nearly impossible to get a virus from a Mac.

[User] I didn't know that.

[Assistant] has your computer turned back on yet?

[User] yes.

[Assistant] did you end up losing any of your work?

[User] fortunately, I saved my work right before it crashed, so it should be OK.

[Assistant] you should probably call the IT department and have them check your computer for virus.

[User] I think it is easier to buy a car than to maintain it. What’s worse, I just don’t trust those vehicle maintenance shops. Sometimes, they overcharge or don’t build those parts I have been paying for. Last week, they even tried to persuade me to buy new parts which really need not to be changed. You know, my car is just half a year old and also good brand. I was just wondering about all these.

[Assistant] There are such shops living on selling parts. I don’t like their service either. All they want is your money. But in the long run, they will be losing costumers. Anyway, car service business is new in China. We all have to control what they are doing. Otherwise, they will not improve.

[User] There are thousands of magazines published in the world to meet the needs of different readers. But only a few of them are influential world-wide.

[Assistant] You have hit the point. It's really hard for a magazine to be well known to people of various ages and educational backgrounds.

[User] But I think Digest is supposed to be the top one. Its subscribers or buyers are from all social classes, perhaps, a majority of them from the educated group. It's quite strange that the readers love it after reading it.

[Assistant] To my mind, the success of Digest is in the clever selection of its articles in each issue.

[Assistant] Hello, Lucy, this is Monica. I’m calling for the accountant position. I saw the information about the vacancy on your company’s website. Is it still available?

[User] Thank you for your interest. The position is still available. Have you already sent your CV to us?

[Assistant] No, not yet. First, I want to check about the availability and see if you could give more information.

[User] It is quite urgent for us to fill this position now and I would like to stress that English is a must because of the international contacts and most likely traveling abroad very soon. If all these is not problem for you, I recommend you to mention these in your cover letter and send it to me directly.

[User] Well, we've settled the question of price, quality and quantity. Now what about the terms of payment?

[Assistant] We only accept payment by irrevocable letter of credit payable against shipping documents.

[User] I see. Could you make an exception and accept D/A or D/P?

[Assistant] I'm afraid not. We insist on a letter of credit.

[User] To tell you the truth, a letter of credit would increase the cost of my import. When I open a letter of credit with a bank, I have to pay a deposit. That'll tie up my money and increase my cost.

[Assistant] Consult your bank and see if they will reduce the required deposit to a minimum.

[User] Still, there will be bank charges in connection with the credit. It would help me greatly if you would accept D/A or D/P. You can draw on me just as if there were a letter of credit. It makes no great difference to you, but it does to me.

[Assistant] Well, Mrs. Wang, you must be aware that an irrevocable letter of cred it gives the exporter the additional protection of the bank er's guarantee. We always require L/C for our exports. And the other way round, we pay by L/C for our imports.

[User] To meet you half way, what do you say if 50% by L/C and the balance by D/P?

[Assistant] I'm very sorry, Mrs. Wang. But I'm afraid I can't promise you even that. As I've said, we require payment by L/C.

[User] what do you do when you see a homeless person on the streets begging for money?

[Assistant] I never really give them money because I don't want to contribute to their addictions.

[User] homeless youth can easily become involved with drugs and prostitution. Do you do anything to help them?

[Assistant] I usually ask them if they want some food and then give them something to eat. I figure that if they're homeless, they're probably hungry.

[User] that's a good idea. Do they usually accept the food?

[Assistant] almost always. However, sometimes they get mad at me for not giving them any cash.

[User] it's sad how more and more young people are sleeping on the streets in London now.

[Assistant] the cost of living in London is just too high for most people.

[User] it's true. The economy is in a bit of mess at the moment.

[User] Since China was open to the outside world, its trade forms have become much more flexible. One of these commonly used forms is co-production. Would you please do a bit explanation of it, Mr. Walker?

[Assistant] Well, under this arrangement two parties cooperate to manufacture a product or a category of products, for example, machine tools for export. Each party produces and supplies a part of the components and parts; one party is a Chinese enterprise, the other, an overseas firm. Most probably, the foreign counterpart contributes technology and equipment, and sometimes, parts and components, while the Chinese enterprises factory building, labor and other resources to the cooperative production. They join hands and fulfill orders together by an agreement or a contract.

[User] I suppose that the assembling of these components and parts, particularly the marketing of the finished products should take place in China.

[Assistant] Not necessarily. It depends on the contract stipulations. They may be marketed in the foreign country where the other party is located, or even in a third country.

[User] I think the principle of co-production is to expand export trade. It's a reciprocal business, isn't it?

[Assistant] Yes, you are right. Either party is not well-equipped to produce the final products single-handedly, but they can enter into an agreement. In such case, each side contributes different resources to make the manufacture of a certain product or a category of products possible.

[Assistant] I haven't thought of that.


[System] This conversation is about daily life. Pretend you're the person the user is addressing. You can create details to stay in character, but make sure to sound natural.

[User] Well, that was an interesting documentary!

[Assistant] For sure! I didn’ t really understand some of the technical jargon they used in the film when they talked about social security in the US.

[User] Like what?

[Assistant] Well, they mentioned how people put away money in something called a 401K?

[User] Yeah, I know it sounds weird, but a 401k is a type of retirement plan that allows employees to save and invest for their own retirement. Through a 401K, you can authorize your employer to deduct a certain amount of money from your paycheck and invest it in the plan. Everyone tries to contribute as much as possible so that when you retire, you can rest peacefully on your nest egg.

[Assistant] That’s interesting and logical I guess. In my country, we also have to contribute to a government-run retirement fund, but most people don’t really trust it so they just invest in properties or things like that.

[User] That seems a bit unstable don’ t you think?

[Assistant] Yeah, but corrupt governments in the past have created distrust among banks and financial institutions, so now people prefer to have money hidden in a jar or a piggy bank.

[Assistant] I know it is not the cheapest on the market. But if you take the quality factor into consideration, you will find your company will benefit in the long term. This device is built in with the most advanced technology. Every aspect has reached the international standard. It is a worthwhile investment.

[User] I understand that. If you can lower the price by 10 percent, we have a deal right now.

[Assistant] Well, the best I can do is to lower the price by 5 percent if you are willing to pay 90% cash of front and 10% on delivery. That is our best offer.

[User] Err, well, I can’t decide right now. Do you mind if I have a small internal discussion on this first? I will tell you our decision this afternoon.

[Assistant] Sure, no problem.

[User] What kind of things did you need to check?

[Assistant] The most important thing was to check that we had the goods in stock. If the goods are in stock, we can deliver them immediately. I also had to check the price. This customer is very important, so they get special prices.

[User] I see. Did anything else happen?

[Assistant] I received a lot of emails from potential clients that I had to answer. Each time, I had to check files to see what we had agreed at earlier meetings. Each client has different conditions and requirements.

[User] It must be difficult to remember the details for each individual client.

[Assistant] I totally agree. I really like my lifestyle to be drama-free, and I don't want to argue about cleaning the apartment. My last roommate was a drama queen. Every time I forgot to take my shoes off, she got really mad and made a big deal out of it.

[User] Yeah, I really don't want a lot of drama in the apartment. It's important that we don't get on each other's nerves.

[User] Hello, Sir, may I help you?

[Assistant] Yes. I would like some information for requesting a loan.

[User] Very well, here are the general terms of our loan policies. We pride ourselves in having the lowest interest rate in the country for personal loans.

[Assistant] I see. So let me get this straight. If I borrow let’s say, ten thousand dollars, how much will I have to pay each month?

[User] It depends on how long you take to pay it back. If we lend you ten thousand dollars at an annual interest rate of ten percent for forty eight months, you would have to pay each month a portion of the loan which is called the principal and another small portion of the annual interest rate. This of course is considering that you don’ t default on a payment!

[Assistant] It sounds good but, there is just one problem. I have a terrible credit score.

[User] That is a very serious problem you see, the bank must assess your personal information, past loans, assets and any other relevant information such as your credit score in order to approve your loan.

[Assistant] You know what? I don’t really need the money. Thanks anyways!

[User] Steven, what's your idea of price?

[Assistant] The best we can do is $160 per case.

[User] I'm afraid that's impossible. You can't expect us to reduce it to that extent.

[Assistant] I think you are well informed about the prevailing market.Some Spanish firms are offering the same at much lower prices.

[User] Price cannot be separated from quality. A comparison of the quality of our products with that of rival goods will show you that ours is far superior.

[Assistant] It's true yours are of better quality. But your price is still on the high side even if we take quality into consideration. How about meeting each other half way?
