T: do you mind if I sit here?

P: no, of course not. Go ahead.

T: don't I know you?

P: yes, now that you mention it, I think we had a chemistry class together in high school.

T: you're right! How are you? It's been a long time!

P: What did you do after high school?

T: I went straight to university afterwards. What about you?

P: I took a year off to go travelling.

T: that sounds exciting. Where did you go?

P: I went all over the world. It was the best year of my life. Where did you go to school?

T: I went to a small school in Connecticut. It has a very good reputation for its languages department.

P: Oh, did you study a foreign language?

T: yes, I got a grant to study Chinese.

P: that's a very difficult language to learn, isn't it?

T: it is, but it's very rewarding.

P: so you can speak Chinese?

T: I can, but not as well as I'd like to. I'll be studying Chinese until the day I die!

P: I think most languages take a lifetime to learn well.
