　　Art's Self introduction
　　Hello! My name's Art. I'm 74 years old and I live in a retirement community with my wife Kate. I retired about twelve years ago from the bicycle business. I was in the bicycle business for thirty-five years. Twenty of the thirty five years I ran my own business. After I decided to sell my business, I became an advisor. I worked as an advisor for five years and then I retired. The retirement community I live in requires you be forty-eight years or older. In the community I engage in many activities, oil painting, watercolor painting, stain glass projects. My major activity, however, is golf. Weather permitting, I play every day. We have a golf course in the community, and since I play more often than I used to before I retired, my game has improved very much.

　　W: First, you need to buy a ticket to your destination. From there, it's a hundred and thirty yen.
　　M: A hundred and thirty yen Okay.
　　W: Then, get on the Hibita Subway Line at platform 4.
　　M: Number 4, all right. Oh, and how often do the trains come round this time of day?
　　W: Usually, they come about every six minutes.
　　M: All right. And where do I get off the train?
W: Get off at Kamiyacho Station, three stops from here. The sign at the station is written in English, so you'll be able to read it.
　　M: Three stops. Got it. Thanks for your help.
　　W: No problem. Good luck.

Again, as you see on your course outline, grade is determined by your performance on a midterm and final test, weekly quizzes, uh, a research project, and classroom participation.. My office hours are from 1:00 to 2:00 pm on Wednesdays, and you can set up an appointment to meet with me at other times as well.
