Excuse me, do you mind if I sit here?
No, not at all. Go ahead.
Thank you.
Are you going somewhere or meeting someone?
I am on my way to Washington. And you?
I am on my way to San Francisco.
Really? I think San Francisco is probably the most exciting city in the U-S.
So do I. No other city has as many good restaurants or as much good music.
Is San Francisco your hometown?
I am from a very small town in Pennsylvania. I wouldn't want to live there again, either. I don't like to live in a small town very much.
Neither do I. But small towns have their advantages: less traffic -
And friendlier people. You know, I'm beginning to feel homesick. By the way, where are your from?
China.
China? But you speak English like a native speaker. I didn't have any idea.
Oh, excuse me. It's time for my flight. Well, it's been nice talking with you.
You, too. Bye!
