[00:07.45]6 Hello?
[00:10.50]Hi,David.It's Lucy.
[00:13.47]Hi,Lucy.How are you?
[00:15.85]Fine,thanks.
[00:17.59]I'm just calling to say thanks
[00:19.68]for inviting us to the party.
[00:21.78]We've really enjoyed ourselves.
[00:24.92]Good.I'm glad you had a good time.
[00:27.69]So what have you been doing recently?
[00:30.23]Well,yesterday we had a problem
[00:32.58]with the cable TV,
[00:34.74]but luckily I was able to fix it myself.
[00:39.24]That's good.
[00:40.47]It's much better
[00:41.63]if you can do things by yourself.
[00:44.60]Yeah.Tell me.
[00:46.99]How's John,your American friend?
[00:49.98]I haven't seen him for a while.
[00:52.96]Oh,he's fine.
[00:55.32]He's away at the moment.
[00:57.49]Oh,I see.
[01:00.13]Has he gone back to the US?
[01:02.81]No.He's travelling here in Western China.
[01:06.85]He doesn't speak Chinese very well,
[01:09.40]but he found a guide,
[01:11.54]so he doesn't have to do everything himself.
[01:14.82]Really?
[01:16.28]I want to take a trip like that
[01:18.43]but it's not so easy...
[01:20.51]No?Why not?
[01:22.92]Well,because of my mom and dad.
[01:25.56]You know,they worry about everything...
[01:28.87]I believe you can look after yourself.
[01:32.56]Do you think so?
[01:34.13]Sure.
[01:35.69]You should be able to get away
[01:38.28]and enjoy yourself once in a while.
[01:41.53]Hmm...maybe you're right.
