U2 People at work 工作中的人们
Dan:What are we going to write about for our ezine this week? Shari: I don’t know. Have you got any ideas, Alvin?
Alvin: Er, no, but let’s have a look at the exhibition on jobs and think about it.
Dan: Look at this nurse. That’s an interesting job. I think I’m going to be an nurse when I’m older. Shari: Hmm. A nurse is OK, but I think I’m going to be a dentist. What are you going to do, Alvin?
Alvin: I’m not sure, but I’m going to have an exciting job. Teacher: Everybody has to leave the school building now, please. Walk quickly, but don’t run.
Shari: Oh, no! I hope the school isn’t going to burn down. Teacher: It’s OK, everybody. It’s only a practice.
Alvin: That’s a really exciting job. I’m going to be a firefighter. Shari: Well, now we know what we’re going to write about in this week’s ezine! jobs.
