In this dialogue a couple are discussing where they want to eat.
A: Guess what's coming up on Friday?
B: My birthday!
A: That's right! Let's go out to eat then. What sounds good to you?
B: Well, this town doesn't have much,just some fast food places and pizza joints.
A: Yeah, and a couple of Mexican and Chinese places.
B: Let's go over to the nearest city. They've got a Red Lobster and an Olive Garden.
A: Good idea. It's only 45 minutes away. Which one do you prefer?

A: Yeah, that's a hard choice. Hey, I have an idea!
B: What's that?
A: We'll flip a coin! I've got a quarter in my pocket.

Hi, I'm Nancy Buswell and I've been teaching people how to improve their English for over 16 years! I'm an American who teaches in a university in southern China. The Ten Questions ESL (English as a Second Language) Podcast is for people around the world who want to improve their English listening comprehension and English accent (intonation). I produce two kinds of podcast episodes. 1) TQ: My original idea was the Ten Questions ESL Podcast. I interview native and non-native English speakers and ask them the same ten questions. You can practice your listening comprehension and learn about other people and other cultures at the same time. 2) LnR: These podcasts are for people who want to improve their intonation and pronunciation. I say a sentence or phrase and you can repeat after me. The LnR podcasts with even numbers (such as 042, 044) have dialogues that I write that use informal speech, that is, the kind of language that friends use with each other. The LnR podcasts with odd numbers (such as 043, 045) use selections from novels, poems or speeches. In December I simplified my podcasts and stopped making the Sun3 episodes, and changed LnR into two kinds: formal and informal language. I'm just one person doing all of this,because I like podcasts and I love helping people to improve their English. My goal is that my podcasts will help individuals around the world as well as English teachers around the world. If you are an English teacher, please share these with your students and/or use them in class. If you are an English-language learner, please share these with your friends, classmates and teachers.
