Tape 1 A Day in the Life of a Typical American White Collar WorkerTape 2 A Day in the Life of a College Student~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Situation 1 Getting Up in the Morning
(The alarm clock rings。)
Catherine: Honey; it's seven o'clock。 Time to get up。
James: Okay; just a few more minutes。
Catherine: No。 You told me to make sure you were up by seven。
James: I know but I can sleep till seven…thirty if I don't take a shower。
Catherine: James; you know that's impossible。 You have a meeting with your boss andlater with an important client。
James: Christ; I almost forgot。 That's what happens when I don't get enough sleep。
Catherine: Enough sleep? You went to bed at ten。 That's nine hours。
James: Do you have to be right all the time? But you are right; I'm getting up。
Catherine: Jump in the shower; that will make you feel better。 And I'll make a pot of
strong coffee; but what do you want for breakfast?
James: Something simple。 How about a bagel and cream cheese。
Catherine: No problem。 It'll be ready before you are。
James: Don't be so sure。
Catherine: Why wouldn't I be? You haven't beaten me yet。
James: True。 But there's a first time for everything。~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Situation 2 Breakfast
James: Ah。。。 The coffee smells great。 Is that bagel ready? I'm starving。
Catherine: It's ready just like it always is and just like I told you it would be。
James: What would I do without you? You're the best。 (Takes a sip of coffee。) And thiscoffee is pretty good; too。
Catherine: We both know you just like me for my cooking。
James: That's not so。 In fact; I'm the one who made dinner of the last two nights。
Catherine: Oh yeah。 I guess that means it's my turn tonight。
James: Only if you want to。 I don't mind cooking once a day; especially when the weatheris nice / and I can barbecue。
Catherine: Okay; but let's get back to breakfast; can I get you anything else?
James: A little more coffee would 'will' be great; with a little more sugar in it this time;please。
Catherine: Sure。 Do you want another bagel or some fruit?
James: No; thanks。 I'm just not that hungry in the morning。 You know that。
Catherine: I know; but I was reading in a magazine that breakfast is the most importantmeal of the day。
James: I've heard that too; but I just can't force myself to eat when I'm not hungry。
Catherine: Why don't I pack you a snack for later in the morning? You could eat it aroundten when you get hungry。
James: That's a great idea。 I always regret not eating breakfast right at ten o'clock。
Catherine: What shall I make?
James: How about a beer?
Catherine: James; be serious。
James: Okay; how about an apple and some cheese?
Catherine: That's better。 Just give me a minute to get it packed。
James: Take your time。 I'm still early。~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Situation 3 Driving to Work
