Task 2: The Carpenters
W: They play “Yesterday Once More” all the time on the campus radio. Do you like it?
M: I do. I never get tired of it. I like the Carpenters. Their voices are so beautiful and clear. I guess that’s why they’re so popular.
W: I like the way their voices blend. There were just two of them, brother and sister, right?
M: Yes, Richard and Karen I think they were. She died I think.
W: Yes, anorexia. It is hard to believe that someone so beautiful would starve herself to death.
M: It’s a problem everywhere in the world, including China, I’m afraid. Women worry too much about their appearances, and are so crazy about losing weight.
W: Well, let’s go for lunch before we go to the concert.
