Warm Up
Dialogue 1

A: Hey, Jim. ⑴How come you look so terrible? What’s goin’ on?
B: ⑵You can say that again. Susan’ brother dropped in from out of town, so I offered to put him up for a few days. But he’s *driving me up a wall. This guy is bottomless pit.
A: ⑶How gross! I can’t handle people like that. Does he at least give you a hand around the house?
B: He doesn’t lift a finger! I *bend over backwards cleaning up all day and he sleeps in until noon.
A: Man, what a ⑷freeloader. You better do something quick or he’ll never ⑸hit the road. After all, he’s *got it made in the shade here.
B: You think he might stay even longer?!
A: Now, don’t go *losing your temper. *If you tolerated all you can, just kick him out…but do it with gloves. I know! Tell him ⑹a white lie like you’re getting the house fumigated!
B: That wouldn’t be a lie!

A: ⑴Yep! Are you going to the rock concert Friday night?
B: I didn’t think much of it. Are you?

B: *Are you broke again? Let me treat you.

Part Two

Everyday Expression

　　人际交流的互动性很大程度上依靠面对面的接触和沟通，邀请三五好友觥筹交错，或者到朋友家去海聊神侃，都是人生乐事。记住如何邀请别人，答应或者拒绝别人，这些社交功能是展现你个人魅力的大好机会。
