1--Hey Michelle, this is my friend James. He' s visiting Shanghai from New York.
2--Oh, hi James. Nice to meet you. So, uh, you visiting for business or pleasure?
3--Well, actually a little of both. I' m meeting some business contacts but I' m also taking some Mandarin classes too.
2--That' s cool! How' s it going?
3--Well, I' m finding the classes pretty tough actually, but I' m having a great time in Shanghai. It' s really an amazing city.
2--It sure is. Are you staying for long?
3--Only two weeks unfortunately. I wish I could stay longer but.
2--Well listen, if you need someone to show you the sights then just call me. I' m having a little get-together at my new apartment next week so if you want to drop by then.
3--That sounds great. I' d love to! Let me take down your number，Michelle.

1--米歇尔，这是我的朋友，詹姆斯。他从纽约来上海玩。
2--哦，詹姆斯你好。很高兴见到你。那你来这儿是办公还是游玩的？
3--嗯，事实上两个目的兼有。我来处理一些生意上的事，同时我还报了普通话班打算学一学。
2--酷！现在进行得怎么样了？
3--嗯，事实上我发现，学习的内容比较难，但是我在上海的时间很充裕。上海真的是很了不起的城市。
2--当然。你要在这儿待很久吗？
3--有点遗憾的说，只有两个星期。我多希望我可以待的时间更久一点。
2--如果你想游玩，需要一个人给你当向导就打电话给我。下周在我的新公寓有个小聚会。如果那时你有时间，可以过来玩玩。
3--听起来不错，我想我会去的！米歇尔，能告诉我你的手机号吗？
