W: So what do you do on the Internet?

M: Did the agent give you some advice?

W: Yes. The manager told me that I’d better use credit card or traveler’s check if possible. And I need to bring some small cash with me. He warned me that I should exchange the money in the banks instead of on the street or with strangers.

M: So you’d better follow the advice.

W: You often go there at the weekends, don’t you?

M: Yes, four times a month.

W: OK. I’ll have a swim there. How about meeting me at the school gate? Let’s walk there.

M: Sure, see you then.

(Text 10)

A young man was in love with a beautiful girl. One day she said to him, “It is my birthday tomorrow.” “Oh,” said the young man. “I will send you roses, one rose for each year of your life.” The same evening he went to the flower shop. As he knew the girl was twenty two years old, he paid for twenty two roses and asked the shop assistant to send them to the girl the next day. The assistant of the flower shop knew the young man very well as he often bought flowers in his shop before. When the young man left the shop, the assistant thought: “The young man is very kind to me. He often comes to buy my flowers. In return I’ll send ten more flowers.” He did so. The next morning thirty two roses were sent to the girl. When the young man came to see her, she did not want to speak to him. And he never knew why she was so angry with him.
