アオイとロスがカフェで話をしています。
Ross: Hi, nice weather we’re having.
Aoi: Huh? Oh, yeah, it’s not so cold today.
Ross: So, do you come here often?
Aoi: Yeah, I come here almost every day.
Ross: Really? So do I. It’s funny that I never noticed you before such a beautiful young lady as yourself.
Aoi: Well, thanks.
Ross: The guy making the coffee is kind of weird, though. I was telling him that he was too slow, and he said I needed to be more patient. Can you imagine the nerve?
Aoi: The guy you were talking to is my boyfriend.
Ross: Oh, I see. Well, enjoy your day.

ジリアンとマートンは職場の同僚です。国際自動車展示会に来ています。
Gillian: Look at all these new cars. Some of the designs are so futuristic-looking.
Merton: I know, but these are concept cars. The car I want to get is user-friendly. It can park itself.
Gillian: Oh, that’s feature that I need. I’m terrible at parallel parking.
Merton: I haven’t owned a car in over twenty years. I have been using public transportation all that time.
Gillian: Did you forget how to drive?
Merton: Almost. When I rented a car, I didn’t even know how to turn on the engine. Things have changed a lot.
Gillian: They sure have.

Mom: Are you sure? You usually get more than this.

Pick-Up Phrases
カズキとチエのカップルの隣に住んでいるのは英語の先生のようです。
Kazuki: Did you hear someone in the apartment building singing late last night?
Chie: Yes, I think I heard a woman singing “Yesterday Once More” by the Carpenters. She was very good. But it was kind of loud.
Kazuki: The woman that lives next door is an English teacher. Maybe it was her practicing her pronunciation.
Chie: Oh, that’s possible. It’s very easy to understand each word of the Carpenters’ songs. That’s good for students studying English.
Kazuki: I agree, but I couldn’t sleep very well last night. Maybe we can ask her to go to karaoke with us someday.
Chie: That’s a good idea.
