V. Let’s Talk

Michael: Hi! I saw you yesterday with John. We room together. I’m Michael.

Jane:   Oh, hi, Mike. How are you doing?

Michael: I’m okay, but school has been really hectic 1 since I came. I haven’t even had a chance to       breathe!

Jane:   I know. It’s especially crazy when you’re a freshman 2. Hey, what’s your major?

Michael: Travel and tourism.

Jane:   Well, what do you plan to do after you graduate?

Michael: Uh… I really haven’t decided 3. I think I’d like to work for a travel agency in this area.            What about you?

Jane:   Well, when I first started college. I majored in physics, but later I realized I might have a hard time finding a job in that field. I ended up changing to computer science. Finding a job in the IT industry shouldn’t be as difficult.

Michael: Have you got a part=time job to support yourself through school?

Jane:  Well, I’m on a four-year scholarship that pays my tuition 4.

Michael: Wow, lucky you!

Jane:   Yeah. How about you? Are you paying for school yourself?

Michael: Sort of. I work weekends at travel agency.

Jane:   A travel agency? That seems like a perfect experience for you! What do you do there?

Michael: I’m a tour guide. I show tour groups around the city.

Jane:   Wow, your English must be pretty good then.

Michael: Actually, they’re all Chinese tourists. That’s why I got the job!
