Inside view
Conversation 1
Andy: I love Chine, but is the food around here typical?
一类灯具Janet: Well, it depends (on) what you mean by typical. This is mostly Cantone food from the south, except for the roast duck, which is from Beijing. But it’s different from the food where I come from, in the northeast.
Andy: And which is better?
Janet: Er, well, in my opinion, I think…Oh, look, here he comes. Hi, Tony.
Tony: Hi, Li Hui, Ni hao.
Janet: Ni hao. Tony, this is Andy, my colleague.
Tony: Hi.
Janet: We were wondering if we could ask you some questions about life in Chinatown.
Andy: I don’t know if Janet’s told you, but we are doing a ries of reviews on ethnic restaurants here in London for London Time Off.毫无二致
Tony: OK, I e.
Andy: And the thing is, everyone eats Chine and Indian food, but we want to put a bit of background and history on the website. Are you up for this?
Tony: OK, fire away.
Andy: What I suggest is, if you’ve got time, we will do some filming around here, and then we will put the rearch together back at the studio…Janet, are you ready with the sound this time?
Janet: OK.
Andy: Just remember to keep the needle out of the red zone. And don’t forget to stop us if there’s too much background noi.
Janet: OK, thanks.
Andy: Tony, you work here in Chinatown. Do you live here as well?
Tony: No, in fact, very few Chine actually live in Chinatown.
Andy: And in comparison with Chinatown in, say, San Francisco or Sydney, is it larger or smaller?
Tony: I would say it’s much smaller. Really, it’s only three or four streets.
Andy: And the business here, is it mostly restaurant trade?
Tony: Yes, as well as the supermarkets, which stock produce from China.
Conversation2
Andy: So where do you call home?
Tony: Like lots of people, my grandparents came from Hong Kong in the 1950’s. But
I’m a British-born Chine so I guess this is home now.
少儿英语教学法Andy: So how long has here been a Chine community in London?
Tony: For 200 years. When the Chine first came to London, they arrived as sailors so they lived in the East End by the Docks.
Andy: And how did they make their living?
Tony: Restaurants mostly, but they were also famous for running laundries.
李正己Andy: And why did Chinatown move over here?
Tony: At the start of the 20th century some of them move to the West End, which is the entertainment district to open Chine restaurants. And gradually, the Chine from all over the London met friends and did business here.
Andy: And does it still feel like a traditional Chine community?
Tony: Oh, sure. You saw the Chine gateway and we celebrate Chine New Year along with the Chine all over the world.
Andy: Thanks.

Part 1埃及在哪里
Prenter: We’re taking a walk along this peaceful, quiet beach. Just the place to relax. But out there, at other beaches around the world, that’s another story. Let’s take a look. The a lions fight to defend their territory. During the mating ason, the elephant als show aggression to establish dominance. People fight to defend their territory. In some situations, we’re ud to it. We even expect it. When you’re on a crowded street, or trying to get into a crowded bus, other people are going to start shoving. It’s not always pleasant, but it’s not surprising when it happens. But what about here, on this lovely beach? There’s plenty of room for everyone to sit comfortably, enjoy the sun, and look at t
he ocean.Let’s say you’re sitting on the beach, it’s not too crowded, and someone comes up and put their stuff right in front of you. What would you do?
Speaker 1: I’d be very angry and go over to them and tell them to move.
出乖露丑Speaker 2: Maybe throw a little sand in their face and make them to move, I don’t know.
Speaker 3: If someone came and sat down in front of me on the beach, I would probably move my towel next to them and start a conversation.”
Prenter: Now that’s take Jack out to the street. This is South beach in Miami. Getting a parking place in this neighbourhood can be really difficult. That’s becau there’re too many cars and not enough space. And when space is limited, people can get a lot more aggressive. Our producer is parked here in this very desirable parking spot. She’s going to wait until someone wants her parking space. There’s a lot of traffic, so she won’t have to wait too long. Yes! There’s someone now.
Part B
Driver: Leaving?
