W:Hello, George.I heard that you’re going to Milan for a business trip next week.

M:Yes, Susan.I’m also planning a trip to Rome for sightseeing after that.

W:Oh, I was just back from Rome.The city has made some new rules.

M:Really? What rules?

W:For example, people who dress up as Roman soldiers in charge of photos won’t be allowed near hot tourist spots, and street performers can’t sing or play their music on public transport.Another rule bans tourists from eating in public places.

M:That’s good.Eating in public is inappropriate and could lead to littering.

W:Rome isn’t the only city to do that.Last year,Florence made a rule saying that tourists would face fines of up to 500 euros if caught eating in the street.

M:Wow, that’s big money,but it’s understandable.

W:Hi, Frank.I heard you’re going to withdraw from the speech class.Can you tell me why?

M:Well, Ms.McDaniel, I don’t think I can make it.Public speaking scares me.I just can’t get in front of a group and talk.

W:What is it that you fear about speaking in front of a group?

M:I am afraid I would look silly if I forget a word or say something stupid or if I shake or turn red.

W:What would happen if you did run into one of these things?

M:People would laugh at me.

W:Well, Frank, your fear is really not based on facts.I once asked my students what they would do if someone in class forgot a word or made a mistake.They said they would feel bad for the speaker for they knew they would be in the speaker’s shoes some day.Does that make you feel better?

M:Yeah, I guess.

W:I hope you’ll stay in the class, and try a bit more.

M:Okay.Thanks, Ms.McDaniel.

M:Of course,but we also eat a lot of other things.Most meals in Italy have at least three or four courses,but special meals have seven to nine courses.

W:Nine courses?

M:Yes.These kinds of meals last for several hours,and they always include drinking wine with family and friends.

W:Tell us more about these meals.

M:Normally,we start with a little wine and then some snacks.This is followed by a soup or spaghetti and then a main dish of fish or meat.The main dish also comes with a salad or vegetables.After that,we enjoy a dessert of cakes or cookies.Then we have coffee and another drink at the end.

W:Wow! Sounds like a wonderful meal.No wonder Italian food is so popular!

Jim was surprised when his high school class travelled to England to learn about the life of William Shakespeare,one of England’s most famous writers.He knew Shakespeare was born in a small town,but until he visited Stratford-on-Avon,Jim couldn’t really imagine the place where Shakespeare spent his childhood.During his visit,Jim learned that Shakespeare’s father was a glove maker.He also helped the city government in his spare time so his son could go to school for free.Sadly,when Shakespeare was only 15,he had to leave school and could not go to university.But the tour guide told Jim’s class that it was good that Shakespeare did not go to college.Nobody taught him how to write his plays,so he was free to write in a new way.His plays were different and interesting,and he became famous in London.Now,his name is known all over the world.
