W: Hi, Mr. Brown. Are you flying back to the United States this July?

M: Oh, I’ve changed my plan of going back home. I’m going to Beijing to watch the Olympic Games. And I will probably stay there until late September or early October.

W: Excuse me, sir. I’m a tourist here, which train will take me to the zoo, please?

M: You need to get to platform 6, take the train on the first line and get off at Rocky Hill. That’s the third stop.

W: Is that where the zoo is?

M: You’re nearly there. After getting off the train, turn right and you’ll see a hill in front of you. Walk up to the top of the hill and you’ll see signs pointing to the zoo.

W: Many thanks. One ticket to Rocky Hill, please.

W: Are you finishing packing?

M: Almost. I’ll just have to check my temp one last time.

W: Ok, err, don’t forget your camera. You need to take some pictures for your grandpa.

M: Yes, I’ve put it in, mom.

W: All right, then. Oh, what about shoes and clothes? You may need another pair of shoes and an overcoat.

M: Mom, it’s just a camping trip, not a travel abroad. I’ll get back in no more than 24 hours.

W: All right, then. I was just trying to be helpful. I’m sure you’ll have a great time.

W: I wish those people across the street would turn their music down. It’s so loud.

M: I know, darling. I just can’t sleep. They are only allowed to play music up until 10:30 on week nights, and it’s already 11:30.

W: I’ll have a really important meeting tomorrow morning. And I’ll have to go and see the doctor in the after-noon. If they don’t-be quiet soon, I’ll never get to sleep.

M: We should go up to their house and ask them to turn it down.

W: Well, I really don’t want to talk to them. They are not very friendly people.

M: Anyway, we can at least try. If they don’t listen, we’ll just pick up the phone and call the police.

W: That sounds like a good idea. Let’s get dressed.
