　　M： Yes， it’s much bigger and more modern.

　　W： I must try it some day. What are you doing on Thursday？

　　M： I haven’t decided yet. Shall we eat at the French Restaurant？

　　W： I went there last week. It was very expensive. The Chinese one down the road is much cheaper.

　　M： What’s it called？

　　W： Beijing Roast Duck Restaurant？

　　M： Oh， yes， I know the one. Let’s try it.

　　M： So， Mary， what do you think of the food？

　　W： Oh， it’s great. For $50 per person， we can have Chinese， Japanese， Italian and French food. It’s an incredible deal. I wonder if they can really make money out of it.

　　M： Sure， they can. You see， everything is taken into account. They figure a person’s stomach can only handle this much， even when it’s empty.

　　W： That’s true. We’ll never get our money’s worth， no matter how hungry we are.

　　M： Except if you only pick the expensive variety.

　　W： For example？

　　M： For example， seafood， roast beef， mutton shop and so on.

　　W： But again one can’t consume that much seafood. Too much of it can make you uncomfortable.

　　M： You’re right. Oh， well， let’s just enjoy the variety and take it slowly.

　　M： Good morning， nice to see you again.

　　W： Very nice to see you， too.

　　M： On， thank you. But， erm， this is not the office I came to before， surely？

　　W： No， you’re quite right. Our other office is being redecorated and we have just been moved here temporarily. It’s not really very convenient. But we’ve hoping it won’t be for very long.

　　M： Oh， I know， it’s dreadful when you have to move office. Terrible. Er， Mr. Graber， is he in？ I have an appointment.

　　W： Yes， he is expecting you， of course， but I’m sorry， he’s not here at the moment. He’s been held up at one of his meetings. He called ten minutes ago. Can you wait a few minutes？

　　M： Oh， sure.

　　W： Fine. Erm， have you come a long way this time？

　　M： Well， I’ve been traveling all over Europe for three weeks now， almost non-stop.

　　W： Sounds rather exciting. Where have you been？

　　M： Oh， I’ve been visiting most of the branches， looking at the various design centers and departments that we have.
