Part Ⅰ Situational Dialogues
Situational Dialogue 1
Ron and Mike are discussing Mike’s career planning after his graduation.
Ron：Mike，how do you go about getting a job after you graduated？
Mike：Well，I think I will go to the Career Service first since 80% to 90% of new graduates get a job with its help.
Ron：Wow. That seems a fairly high percentage.
Mike：Yes. I want to see whether I have a chance to work outdoors rather than at a factory or in an office.
Ron：You love outdoors，don’t you？
Mike：Yes，very much. I want to organize my own tours，which means I would be a tourist guide first.
Ron：That sounds really great. Do you need any special training to be a tourist guide？
Mike：Yeah. That’s why I went to a coach company which runs a National Tourist Board approved course. I had a large amount of studying that combined field work.
Ron：Is that all？
Mike：I also need to learn several foreign languages，Chinese included. It’s really hard for me.
Ron：You mean Chinese？
Mike：Yes. It’s quite difficult to remember all those Chinese characters. They seem all the same to me！Not to mention their pronunciations. My tongue never knows how to work！
Ron：Well，I’m sure you’ll learn it well soon.
Mike：I hope so.
