A: So what do you think of the class so far?
B: I like it. What about you?
A: I love looking at the slides. And I really enjoy the discussion group.
B: But we sure have to do a lot of reading!
A: That's true, but it isn't as much as for English.
B: Right, but aren't these art books heavy?
A: Yeah. I guess that's what happens when you're studying the entire history of art since the beginning of time!
2.
A: Oh, I didn't know you were taking this class, too.
B: Yes. I think it's going to be interesting.
A: Yes, I think it'll be more interesting than the biology class we took last semester.
B: Yes, there was an awful lot of reading for that class, wasn't there? There isn't as much in this class. And I really enjoy doing the experiments! The equipment in the lab is state-of-the-art, too.
A: Do you think you'll be a chemistry major?
B: Maybe.
3.
A: What's the matter?
B: Oh, I just got my essay back. She wrote so many comments on it! It's going to take hours to write a second draft.
A: Do you think she was unfair?
B: No, not at all. In fact, I really like her.
A: Yeah, Ms. Downs is great. She and the art history teacher are the best teachers I've ever had here.
B: I agree. I think my writing is really going to improve in this class.
A: Me, too.
4.
A: Uh, oh. It looks like we got here too late. The computer lab is closed.
B: Oh, no, and I'm working on a very complicated web program .
A: Yeah, we have a lot of homework for that class, don't we?
B: Yeah, it's tough, but I love programming! Don't you?
A: No, it's hard for me. This isn't my favorite class. I prefer sciences like biology or chemistry.
B: Well, let me know if you need any help with your programs.
A: Thanks. That's really nice.
5.
A: What do you think of Professor Green?
B: He's so boring. I'm not crazy about this class. What about you?
A: Yes, Professor Green is a little boring, but the subject is so interesting! I love learning about the past. I'm particularly interested in the 20th century.
B: There's a lot of reading, though, isn't there?
A: True, and the books are so heavy!
B: They're not as heavy as those art books, though.
A: No, you're right about that!
6.
A: Do you think this class is going to be easy or hard?
B: I think it's going to be okay. I don't think it'll be too hard. It's certainly not as hard as chemistry. Not yet, anyway.
A: Yeah, I guess because it's just an introductory course.
B: Right. It says here we're going to study the cell, basic genetics, and the human body.
A: Do we meet in a lab?
B: No, not for this class. We meet in a regular classroom. |
