第十天 Dating
Dialogue 1
John likes Jenny, but he%26#39;%26#39;s afraid to ask her out. His friend Jack is trying to encourage him.
John: Hey, Jack, is Jenny coming with us?
Jack: Yes. Why?
John: Nothing. I%26#39;%26#39;m just asking.
Jack: Just asking? But why is your face burning like mad? Ah-huh, someone has a crush on Jenny, doesn%26#39;%26#39;t he?
John: Who has a crush?!
Jack: Come on, John, don%26#39;%26#39;t be such a chicken. If you like her, you%26#39;%26#39;ve got to tell her. Maybe she likes you.
John: But I don%26#39;%26#39;t have the guts to ask her out.
Jack: What%26#39;%26#39;re you so afraid of?
John: I%26#39;%26#39;d totally die if she turned me down.
Jack: But that%26#39;%26#39;s better than keeping everything to yourself. You%26#39;%26#39;ve got to let her know. Come on! You%26#39;%26#39;ve got to take a chance!
John: I don%26#39;%26#39;t know....Well, maybe, you%26#39;%26#39;re right, but how am I going to tell her?
Dialogue 2
John has a new girlfriend. His friend Jack is envious....
John: Hi, Jack, long time, no see!
Jack: Yeah! How%26#39;%26#39;s everything going?
John: Not bad! At least I%26#39;%26#39;m still alive.
Jack: Just alive? I heard you%26#39;%26#39;re going out with Jane.
John: Where did you get that idea?
Jack: Oh, come on. Jane is a very nice girl, someone you meet only once in a lifetime.
John: Yeah, you%26#39;%26#39;re right. I%26#39;%26#39;m not boasting, but she%26#39;%26#39;s really as beautiful as she is intelligent.
Jack: Well, I really envy you for finding such a girl.
Dialogue 3
Jane%26#39;%26#39;s friend Michelle tells Jane that she%26#39;%26#39;s lucky to have Jack as her boyfriend because....
Michelle: I heard you%26#39;%26#39;re going out with Jack.
Jane: Yes. To be frank, I really love him to death.
Michelle: You%26#39;%26#39;re so lucky!
Jane: Why do you say that?
Michelle: Why? Are you kidding me? A boy like him is so hard to find. So caring, so patient, and, did I mention, so handsome?
Jane: It%26#39;%26#39;s very nice of you to say so.
Michelle: Well, it%26#39;%26#39;s not a compliment. I%26#39;%26#39;m saying it from the bottom of my heart! It%26#39;%26#39;s obvious that he%26#39;%26#39;s head over heels in love with you.
Jane: I sure hope so.
Dialogue 4
Jenny%26#39;%26#39;s boyfriend is a very nice person, but her friend Katie is concerned about his age....
Katie: Jenny, I know you like John a lot, but what do you like about him?
Jenny: Well, there%26#39;%26#39;s just something about him. Don%26#39;%26#39;t you think so?
Katie: Really? What%26#39;%26#39;s this something?
Jenny: Well, he%26#39;%26#39;s mature, handsome, gentle, and successful. I think he%26#39;%26#39;s my Mr. Right!
Katie: He%26#39;%26#39;s certainly mature, but don%26#39;%26#39;t you think he%26#39;%26#39;s a little old for you? He%26#39;%26#39;s almost twice as old as you are!
Jenny: Well, age shouldn%26#39;%26#39;t be something that comes in the way of a person%26#39;%26#39;s marriage. As long as we love each other, age is not an issue. It never has been!
Katie: But what will others think about it?
Jenny: I don%26#39;%26#39;t care what others will think about us. I just know I love him and he loves me. And that%26#39;%26#39;s all that matters.
Dialogue 5
Tom wants to settle down and start a family, but his girlfriend Monica is not ready yet. Therefore, they have to break up....
Jack: Hi, Tom, how have you been?
Tom: Not very well.
Jack: Why? What happened? You look so down!
Tom: Nothing.
Jack: Come on. For a man who%26#39;%26#39;s so down, there%26#39;%26#39;re usually two reasons. Either his career is going downhill, or he has a broken heart. You%26#39;%26#39;re so successful, so....
Tom: Well, you%26#39;%26#39;re right. I just broke up with Monica.
Jack: Oh, I%26#39;%26#39;m sorry. I thought you two were made for each other.
Tom: Well, you never know. I%26#39;%26#39;m ready for a commitment and want to settle down, but she says she wants to pursue her career while she%26#39;%26#39;s still young.
Jack: Well, it%26#39;%26#39;s always difficult to choose between career and family.
Tom: Maybe you%26#39;%26#39;re right.
Jack: John, I don%26#39;%26#39;t know what to say to comfort you, but cheer up! There%26#39;%26#39;s plenty of fish out there and you%26#39;%26#39;ll find your perfect match!
Tom: Yeah, but it%26#39;%26#39;s hard to forget her at the moment. You know, we were together for almost five years. It%26#39;%26#39;s really hard....
Dialogue 6
Mike has recently broken up with his girlfriend because....
John: Hi, Mike, we%26#39;%26#39;re having a party tonight, wanna come join us? You can bring your girlfriend.
Mike: Well...er...I%26#39;%26#39;m breaking up with Cathy.
John: What happened? Did you have a big fight?
