---My name is Jim. _______ ---I’m Linda. Nice to meet you, too!

M: Nice to meet you, too. I'm Peter.

W: Have you been in London long?

M: I got here last week. I guess I've been in the hotel for a week now.

W: I arrived this morning. What's the hotel like?

M: Not perfect, but for this price, not bad.

W: Why? What's the matter with it?

M: Well, the heating doesn't always work; it was freezing here last night. And the breakfast is so early, this morning I overslept and missed it completely!

W: You overslept? Why was that?

M: You'll see, there's another boy in my room and he snores really badly! I didn't get a wink of sleep!

W: Oh no! Don't they have the morning-call service?

M: No, I asked the waiter to call me up but be said I had to pay one extra pound every day for that. I think that should be their duty, not additional service and charge.

W: Well, I agree with you. So what is the exact time for breakfast'?

M: 7 to 8 o'clock. And lunch is from 12:00 to 1:30, supper 6:30 to 8:00.

W: That's not only early, but all three meals are short. What do they provide for supper? Er, I am a vegetarian.

M: The simple fish and chips, pizzas. Nothing special. The vegetarian restaurant near Neal's Yard is fairly good. It's just down the street, by Covent Garden.

W: Oh, Covent Garden. I've heard about it. A nice place. Thank you.

M: You are welcome.

W: Anyway, I don't know what we can do about the breakfast, or your roommate, but don't you ask the hotel to fix the heating?

M: Hmmm, yes, what a good idea! Why didn't Ithink of that?

M: Hi. You are?

W: I'm Lisa, [22] a good friend of your young sister Alice. I used to go to your home when you were still home.

M: Yeah, Lisa, I remember, the active girl usually in red. Nice to meet you, too.

W: [22] Alice told me I might meet you here, but I didn't expect it so soon.

M: When did you come here?

W: A couple of days ago. Today I just had my first class.

M: How was your first class?

W: Well, I got lost and I was late as the class was moved to another building.

M: Don't worry about it.[25] It was a freshman class, so I'm sure you weren't the only person who was late. The first day is just going over the syllabus and finding out what will be expected of the students. Still, if you don't want to sit in the front, [23] you'd better go there early to find a seat since the classroom usually fills up.

W: Thank you for telling me. Where are you going?

M: I have an appointment with my advisor. I've been behind in my research for the fellowship, and [24] I am supposed to have an outline ready by today!

W: Oh! What are you going to do?

M: [24] I'll come up with a short outline after biology class and promised him a complete outline early next week. That reminds me. I've got to run. See you later !

W: Ok. Good luck!
