neutral I can't. I am already behind the schedule. Besides, you know Mr. White. He would think that I was putting him on. neutral You didn't do anything but sneeze this morning, and you can't do anything this afternoon like this. Gee! You've got a fever.

neutral What about Mr.White? neutral | Just tell your secretary. | Just take it easy, Steven? Please be quiet. sadness Maybe he is right | 19.042686 | 4.625739 |
neutral Not bad. But we have lost a few of staff lately. neutral Why?
neutral Because of the low salaries. neutral But your company is huge. Can't they afford to pay the staff decent wages?
neutral I don't know why. neutral | Anyway, if this problem cannot be solved. It may affect our business. We are thinking about moving | What can you do about it then? 0 disgust Nothing, nothing! | 8.237452 | 3.630628 |

neutral Are you going to watch the Indy Five Hundred on TV this weekend? neutral I'm not really into racecar driving.
neutral You were when we were in high school. That, and baseball. neutral Yeah, well, times change. Look at you-you're a father now. You can't say that you haven't changed.
neutral True, but I still have to watch my baseball. The season's in full swing now. neutral | Hey, did anyone tell your friend Karen she had her nose done? Because it looks different. | Do your children watch it with you?
happiness The | 8.098296 | 3.580786 |
neutral I can't believe it! I lost. neutral It looks like you have to buy tickets for us, Jason. And we're not going to see an action movie!
neutral That's not fair, you got all the easy questions. neutral I guess that's just the luck of the draw.
neutral I want a rematch. Let's play again. neutral | OK, if this is your second game. | OK! But no more snakes. ... Here comes the bus, Jenny. | 23.329664 | 5.529179 |
neutral that's alright. I notice you have a few newspapers there. Would you mind lending me one? neutral no, not at all. Which one would you like--the New York Times or the Guardian?
neutral I prefer the British paper, but I'll read whatever one you aren't going to read right away. neutral I was just going to do a little Sudoku while we wait for the plane to take off, so the Guardian is all yours.
neutral thanks a lot. That's really nice of you. Would you like a piece of gum? happiness | sure, thanking my new friend. | Sure. Thanks. What did it cost in American dollars? $54.The | 20.109688 | 0.042506 |
fear I can ’ t go through with this! I just can ’ t! I ’ m not ready for marriage! What was I thinking? I ’ m only thirty five years old! I ’ Ve got my entire life ahead of me, adventures waiting! I can ’ t settle down yet! neutral What are you talking about? It wasn ’ t more than a month ago that you were rambling on about how you are tired of living the life of a bachelor and how you envy your friends that have a family!
neutral I know. I know! neutral Let ’ s think this through. First of all, you cannot leave Amy at the altar. Not only will she be humiliated and kill you, but she is the woman that you love and the woman of your dreams! Why would you want to end that or jeopardize it like this? Second of all, you are just getting cold feet. You know deep down inside that you want to marry her, so cut the crap and do it!
neutral You ’ re right. I ’ m being crazy! Ok, I ’ m ready, let ’ s do this! neutral | So we set the date, who should tell them? We haven't discussed any plans... | Great! Now, where does an extra 2 million dollars get spent? Oh yeah-a | 8.031037 | 3.373513 |
neutral Hi, why do you look so depressed today, Mike? sadness I had a terrible quarrel with my neighbor yesterday.
neutral How come? sadness It is a long story. Basically, she thought I had laughed at her while I didn't.
neutral I know everyone suffers when he is misunderstood. But why not take it easy? happiness | You are quite nice, Karen. | Yeah. Why not try to solve this problem by ourselves instead of taking it to court? | 19.01609 | 4.171399 |
neutral What does she teach? neutral English, of course.
neutral Is she your teacher? neutral Yes. She teaches our class three times a week.
neutral Can she speak Chinese to her students? neutral | Not at the moment. | Of course! 0f fact, all the foreign tutors in Beijing try very hard | 14.075375 | 7.2038 |
neutral Yeah. I think there's a live outdoor concert by the river tomorrow. neutral Oh yeah. I heard about that too. Let's go check it out.

neutral Do you know Jeffery has published his second detective novel? neutral Yes. I heard about that. And I know you want to buy it, but I ’ m not interested in detective novels.
neutral So what are you interested in? neutral Magazines about fashions, such as Cosmo Polian.
neutral I know that magazine. It ’ s very popular. neutral | Is it available here? If not, could you recommend some fashion magazines with a better taste | But do you really like reading fashion articles? happiness Of course, yes! The | 8.215528 | 2.580806 |
neutral Oh, I know. I saw you doing pull-ups one time on the campus 5 and some students trying to imitate you. neutral Yeah, they are doing it for fun. Seldom would people like my exercise. It ’ s difficult and boring.
neutral It ’ s true. Many students do the exercise when they have to. We have P. E. once a week. neutral But I think Chinese students need to exercise more. Besides exercise will help them learn new things better. Don ’ t students want to have a good memory?
neutral Of course. I didn ’ t know that. I only know exercise makes bodies stronger. I should take some exercise then. Do you have any suggestions? neutral | Well, just move your body in everyday life. Like taking public transportation instead of getting up | Why not go with me. I don't care what you get yourself in as long your mus | 8.298976 | 2.969644 |
neutral What kind of sport do you like to participate in? neutral I am good at tennis and skiing. What about you?
neutral I prefer the indoor sports, such as bowling, badminton and squash. neutral Moderate exercise is really important for health.'Life lies in movement.'
happiness How about playing tennis with me? happiness | That sounds fine. Let's start now! | OK. Let's play a game right now! We have been working so hard all week that | 24.048084 | 4.002318 |
neutral Great. Why don't we start on the machines? neutral Are you alright? Can you do more?
neutral I'm sorry. I know there are still seven machines. But I'm exhausted. neutral That's okay. Don't worry.It's important not to push yourself. Especially not at the beginning.
neutral What can I do though? I don't know the proper settings for the rest of the machines. neutral | Well, maybe that should wait until later. For now, just use these three machines - they have | You mean like your mother? sadness My mum! Oh, my g | 8.018409 | 2.391009 |
neutral Some of my friends play cards on the internet. Have you ever tried that? neutral No, I prefer to play with people I know.
neutral How about mah-jong? neutral It's a popular game with some people, but I've never played it.
neutral I thought everyone in your country were experts at mah-jong! neutral | That might be so when they were young girls, because women are usually known as specialists. | You are right! But not every South Korea likes playing. | 8.225953 | 3.731015 |
surprise Can you believe that Susan got married? surprise Really? I remember she said if she would remain single. Is the man very rich?
surprise No. That ’ s what is surprising me. neutral You means she didn ’ t marry a rich man.
neutral He ’ s a postman. neutral | What did we do without our own knowledge? Maybe this will make it easy for us to know where | She doesn't want to be in love. neutral Why? What happened with | 8.169446 | 4.137641 |
neutral Yes, it's beautiful, but it's also very hot. neutral Yes.
neutral What's the weather like in your country? neutral Mm... It's quite warm now.
neutral Where do you live? neutral | In London. And how about you? | In London. happiness Oh, is that? I thought someone was saying'L | 21.236956 | 4.711545 |
happiness I really enjoy the beach in the summer. happiness I couldn't agree with you more.
happiness We should come here more often. happiness You are absolutely right.
happiness I'd like to come back next weekend. happiness | Good idea, let me know if that suits. | That would work for me as well. neutral But what if it rains? Will | 25.88723 | 2.533413 |
neutral Do you really think I should wear different clothes? neutral Well... perhaps you should think about it.
anger Why should I wear a skirt? Or a dress? neutral I'm not saying you should. I'm saying you should think about it. That's all!
anger Why should I do that? I'm good at my job! That's the only important thing! neutral | But your manager probably wants people in his office with nice, shiny hair. | But your supervisor says he doesn... happiness ( surprise ; anger ) What? You | 8.080741 | 2.707006 |
neutral No, I'm a Britisher. Where do you come from? neutral I come from America. Are you a freshman?

neutral No. I'm busy then too. I'm meeting Dorothy Heath at North Bridge Road. Are you free on Thursday afternoon? happiness Yes, I think I am. Let's meet for lunch at mouth restaurant.
happiness Good idea! Is two o'clock okay? happiness | It looks good to me. | Sure it'd better if they could take us earlier, but three is ok. Can we make | 15.513599 | 3.0809 |
neutral Why? What's stressing you out? fear School. Since I was working part time, I had a difficult time keeping up with class. Now that we have exams coming up, I'm totally freaking out.
neutral The best thing to do is study as much as you can. I'm sure you'll do alright. neutral I hope so. I guess I won't be sleeping for the next 3 days. That's what it'll take.
happiness I have to study for an exam too. Why don't we study together. We can encourage each other. happiness | Great plan! It should make things easier since neither of us will want all our hard- earned knowledge | Sure, why not? When should your school start at. Do classes usually begin in September like this | 8.009617 | 3.370996 |
neutral The new webpage design is much more effective than before. I feel confident it will rope in a lot more business because of its user-friendly format. neutral Why do you think the new page is so much better than the old page? I thought the old page wasn't half bad...
neutral The old page was okay, alright, but there wasn't a big influence in our sales volume, because the site wasn't developed with an eye towards the marketing aspect. Now it's different. We got our marketing department team in on the action, and the results are smashing... neutral What changes were made from the old page to the new page?
neutral First, the visitors to the site are encouraged to give their contact information. They can sign up for a free monthly drawing. Once we've got their info, it goes into a database for future marketing mailers and advertising targeting. Also, there are clear links to descriptions of our products and services, so as to give confidence to new customers. We also added a specific area for on-line customer service... So far we've gotten a ton of positive feedback... happiness | Great job! How did your bosses react? | This new site has really been working wonders, both helping us complete that last piece of online customer | 25.29425 | 3.570878 |
neutral Well, not every Chinese can handle spicy food in the way people from Sichuan and Guizhou provinces can. Back where I come from, people don't eat a lot of papers and chilies. neutral Oh, I see how this food can be really hard for you. I can sympathize with that. I stayed in Sichuan for a year. The food was difficult at the beginning. Every dish was so spicy. After a while though, I got used to the taste, and now I won't consider anything a real dish if it isn't spicy.
neutral Yeah, you can increase you tolerance for spicy food, but so far, I haven't had the need or the opportunity. Every time I try spicy food, it is a total disaster for my nose and eyes. neutral I completely understand. I didn't intend on liking spicy food at first either, but when you have no other choices, you've got to adapt.
happiness Yeah, I guess that's a typical example of'when in Rome, do as the Romans do.' neutral | It seems like Americans are also very interested into finding local specialty cuisines, which they could | Hey, we are out- waiter! surprise What... oh. You want | 8.111085 | 0.540316 |
neutral Don't you feel a little strange taking the place of your old boss after he was demoted? neutral Yes, at first I felt very awkward. After Bill was demoted and then resigned, it was kind of like somebody died! I mean the atmosphere in the office was like a funeral parlor or something. And then I was afraid people would look at me as a traitor for filling in his spot when the management asked me to...
neutral Did they mutiny? neutral Thankful, no. I guess everyone understands the opportunity I had to step into a leadership role is so great for my career. I'm really moving up the ladder now that I'm considered a supervisor. After a couple weeks, it was like nothing happened.
neutral It is a really good chance for you to get more exposure at work. supervisors get to take the credit for all the hard work of the people under them. neutral | You know what? Maybe this will be an advantage. People are going leave behind our department anyway, | Yeah, but how will those guys ever forgive me! They were all such close friends... | 8.150826 | 4.02141 |
neutral You'd better give up smoking. It's bad for your health. neutral You're right, but you know, it's hard to give up an old habit.
neutral But you should make up your mind first. neutral You know, I often have to work till late at night. I need something to keep me awake.
neutral Why don't you go to bed and get up early? You'll have the same time for work. happiness | That sounds like a good idea. | OK. Thanking for sharing with Me! neutral Oh, bye-bye | 21.103262 | 3.609536 |
neutral What's the temperature? neutral It's 20 degrees below zero now. It was even colder this morning.
neutral Have you heard what the weather is going to be like tomorrow? neutral I was watching the news a little earlier. They said it's probably going to snow tomorrow.
neutral I really don't like the winter. I wish it were summer. neutral | Do you know if any buses are running? Some seem to run every day, while others only | Me, either. We can still look forward to spring! Then we won't have to worry | 8.159155 | 3.985476 |
happiness Mom, I just finished my paper. Can you proofread it before I hand it in? happiness Sure, let ’ s take a look. Sweetie, this is terrific. Your ideas are so original.
happiness Thanks. happiness I can tell you worked hard on it.
happiness I really did! I started thinking about what I wanted to say three weeks ago. happiness | Well, the effort pays off! | And all that time and thought paid off! You got an “ A ”, didn't | 19.022022 | 0.083639 |
neutral Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know. neutral It's all right. There are so many Christians in America that everybody takes it for granted that I'm Christian.
neutral I guess so. So what do you do around this time of year? neutral Well, I'll celebrate Hanukah soon, but that's not as important to us as Christmas is to you. Mainly I'll just enjoy the holiday break.
neutral Well, would you be horribly offended if I invited you to a Christmas party at my house? happiness | Of course, let me bring something! | No way. disgust Maybe we won'th get any Chinese food there! | 24.023186 | 0.632245 |
neutral I will dress up as a vampire with big fangs. neutral May I have a look at your costume?
neutral Sure. Wait a moment. ( Several minutes later ) Here you are. happiness I like your black clothes and your fangs are cool.
happiness I will bite many beautiful girls on the neck tonight. Maybe I will suck their blood. happiness | You really make me chill. | It seems that all young ladies must love my style. | 17.204124 | 6.694872 |
happiness So, what did you do out there? I mean besides bask in the sun, obviously. happiness I jogged up and down the beach and played volleyball. You know I never realized how hard it is to run on sand. I couldn ’ t get through a whole game before I had to sit down.
happiness Not to mention cooler. Did you go swimming? happiness I wanted to, but the water is too cold, and I just wetted in up to my knees.
happiness It all sounds so relaxing. I wish I could get away to the beach like that. happiness | Well, why don ’ t we try? | Just take your books with, Dan. neutral But if we are doing this kind | 17.514286 | 2.736214 |
neutral Very good! It pumps blood throughout the body, using the circulatory system such as blood vessels and veins. Now let's not forget that our lungs provide oxygen to our heart and body to keep us alive! Now what about the organs that help us digest food? neutral The stomach and intestines!
neutral Very good! Let's not forget that the stomach is the one that breaks down our food and our intestines process that food and then expel the waste. Are we forgetting anything? neutral Yeah! Our kidneys, liver and bladder!
neutral Oh yes, you are right. Very important organs indeed. neutral | What do these three organs exactly? They take out some stuff, break them up and then send | OK, now can anyone remember all of these organds? surprise Wow | 8.097495 | 2.728598 |
neutral What have you been up to? neutral I just opened up my own business not long ago.
neutral Good for you! What are you doing? neutral I'm a professional party planner here in the city. I do catering and all that.
happiness I knew some day I would be able to profit from your love of fun! happiness | Thank you! You always make me laugh. | Ha! It doesn't always look like this. Sometimes we spend hours working out where every- | 25.636059 | 3.335511 |
neutral I see that you have bought several new pots and pans and utensils. neutral Yes, I have. I need them to help me with these new dished I ’ m trying to make. I need a little more practice before I invite guests over.
neutral Looking at the spice rack, I ’ d say you ’ Ve been learning how to make asian food. neutral Yes. I ’ Ve always likes Indian and thai food, so I ’ Ve been trying to make dishes from those countries. I ’ m pretty good at making curries now, but I still need practice at making thai food.
neutral Both kinds of food are becoming popular.Nowadays, it ’ s very easy to pick up the ingredients at the supermarket. neutral | There aren't really any special shops near where we live for doing Chinese food--and there | The specialty store offers many kinds of spices too--five-spicy blend, for | 8.112301 | 4.031104 |
neutral I see. Do you ski often? happiness Every chance I get. On weekends I ski all day long. Sometimes I even ski at night.
happiness That sounds great. happiness Oh, yes. The ski slopes are well lit. It's really nice to ski at night. Why don't you learn to ski?
fear Not on your life! I know I'd break my leg happiness | No problem! You could rent the skies. | No need for that! Just rent a pair of skis and enjoy the game. | 25.805138 | 3.916355 |
neutral Hi, Dave. This is Zina. neutral Zina? Zina the Snake?
neutral I got your e-mail a couple of months back. neutral Yeah? Which one was that?
neutral The one that said, You're a creep. From me you won't hear another peep. I hope you wreck your jeep. neutral | That would be right, then? | Hey! surprise Wake up, sheath. That wasn't my real | 19.161484 | 2.985685 |
neutral I need to cancel that. We have had a last minute change of plans. neutral I see. Would you like me to reschedule you for another night?
neutral OK, we will let you know as early as possible. By the way, will we be able to get a refund on this cancellation? happiness Certainly.
happiness Thank you very much. happiness | You are always welcome. | No problem, sir. Welcome anytime! sadness Oh dear... what should | 16.980585 | 2.291081 |
neutral No, I'm not feeling myself. I just want to check my emails, visit my favorite websites and chat with my friends. neutral Now I see, you must be suffering from discomgoogolation.
neutral What does that mean? there's nothing wrong with me. neutral Well, the term'discomgoogolation'comes from'discombobulate'and'google '. Because floods of information are just a mouse click away, net users are very likely to become addicted to the web.
neutral That's alright. I just can't bear losing track of all the latest information. It almost drives me crazy. neutral | Maybe you should get an Rssi? | Do remember though, it is easier said than done when trying to keep up-to - day on | 21.425722 | 7.474563 |
neutral Sally, I ’ m tired of this Western food. I really miss my mother ’ s Sichuan cooking. neutral I ’ m sure you do miss that type of cooking. But can ’ t you try to get used to Western food?
neutral I have tried. But Americans like butter, bread, sugar, and cream too much. neutral I suppose you ’ re right, Lee. Maybe that ’ s why so many Westerners are overweight.
neutral It ’ s interesting that Americans work very hard at their jobs, do not take naps during the day, and yet they can be so heavy. neutral | There must also come from an increase in sales for exercise facilities, fitness center.... | You see, in China all people walk around every time. surprise Oh? | 8.122633 | 2.716774 |
happiness Yeah. I've seen pictures of the crowds! neutral And the restaurant are excellent... but they're kind of expensive.
neutral And how about Kyoto? neutral Kyoto is lovely. It's full of beautiful old temples and gardens.It's a very historic city.
neutral How was the weather? neutral | Not good, especially for my friend. | Pretty good. But some parts were experiences snow during the day, and at night we had | 24.91716 | 0.910698 |
neutral Just a second. I'll see if I can find them for you. neutral Thanks.
neutral Here you are. You must return them within a month. neutral What happens if I'm not finished with them in a month?
neutral You can come in and renew them unless someone else has reserved them. happiness | Good, thanks! That sounds simple. | OK, thank you very much. happiness Your welcome... Goodbye! | 23.601498 | 6.343427 |
happiness You know, the one just on the corner with Oxford Street. There is a large pharmacy next door. happiness Oh yes, I know which one you mean. I have never been there, but I looked at their menu once and it did look good.
happiness Okay then. I think we will all meet outside? happiness What time?
happiness At 8 o'clock. I will make the reservation. happiness | Good, so this can be my treat? Right! | Ok... So what should I wear today, my new purple shirt? My jeans or | 25.785494 | 3.111739 |
neutral Yeah, I worked about twenty hours a week in a pizza restaurant. neutral What was that like?
neutral It was always very busy there. neutral What did you do?
neutral I stood behind the register and took pizza orders. neutral | How long were your shifts usually? | You seemed to know what you were doing. sadness And it really browns me | 24.359684 | 2.717471 |
neutral That sucks. neutral I'm just pissed that management can't see behind his smooth talking lies.
neutral Look on the bright side. At least you have a job. happiness Yeah. I shouldn't stress about this anymore. It's not like I can do anything about it.
happiness Exactly. Instead, we should have some drinks tonight. happiness | Sounds pretty good to me. | Sounds good. neutral Let me get my coats from upstairs, | 18.671505 | 3.722542 |
neutral You're so witty... neutral So why is the face tilted to the right?
neutral This watch is supposed to be worn on your left hand. neutral So it's not as convenient for left-handed people?
neutral It's better for right-handed people like me. See, I don't even have to move my arm to see the time. neutral | Yeah, you can just look at your watch... but then what about when other times are concerned? | Exactly! sadness But how are you going to tell which way that d | 8.159923 | 3.933709 |
neutral How much does it cost? neutral It costs 125 dollars a month.
neutral Yes, that's all right. I want to enroll in the course. neutral Thank you, please fill out this form for us.
neutral Do you want me to fill it out now? neutral | Please wait until we confirm our information. If there are some discrepancies on your records, | Please wait till your name comes out. surprise My goodness, what are my | 8.282311 | 2.04202 |
neutral What ’ s your major? neutral I ’ m majoring in French literature.
neutral Oh, don ’ t you have to take that class on 18th century poetry? It ’ s really difficult. I hear the students in that class have to write a paper 100 pages long. neutral That ’ s right. We got the assignment last week.
neutral When is it due? neutral | Next Monday, if i understand my course outline properly. The professor said we could turn the paper in | The day when Professor Clark was born. happiness Ha,ha! Good thing he | 8.221618 | 2.950243 |
neutral Okay, next question. If Eric asked you out on a date, what would you say? neutral Duh! I would say yes! Eric is the most popular kid in school! Okay, my turn. What would you do if you won the lottery?
neutral Let ’ s see... If I won the lottery, I would buy two tickets for a trip around the world. neutral If you buy me a ticket I will go with you for sure!
neutral My dad will freak out if I even mention a trip like that! neutral | That ’ s why, after buying our plane fares to Milan or something and then staying | That ’ abs cool! So tell me something about your family. | 8.051492 | 2.654986 |
neutral No problem. neutral I might need some tools though. Do you know where I can get some?
neutral Sure. I have all kinds of tools. Just ask. I ’ ll be happy to get them for you. happiness Thanks. That would be very helpful.

happiness No other city can match it. It's heaven. neutral Well, if you live in other as long enough you love them just as much.
neutral Maybe. neutral | But there are no others that could compete with Shanghai. The rest are all behind | I guess. 251670948, this is Mary speaking. What | 8.060987 | 3.557237 |
neutral Alice, your father is amazing. He ’ s 90 years old and he lives alone in that big house. neutral I know. He doesn ’ t like to ask anyone for help. My dad insists on paying his own bills and taking care of himself!
neutral That sounds like my Grandmother. She was always stubbornly independent. neutral It seems that folks like my father and your grandmother are determined to be on their own.
neutral They see their independence as a kind of character strength. neutral | But they don't have to do it all by themselves. There are some things we can get | Those people want total freedom, they say. The ability happiness You said it! | 8.058854 | 3.515286 |
neutral Is it due to old age or is he sick. neutral Maybe a little of both. The doctor's can't point out anything specifically. I think it is because he didn't take care of himself during his youth.
neutral That makes sense. It's important to take care of your health early in life. neutral That's what my father tells me almost everyday.
neutral Well, I hope he starts feeling better. Say hi to him for me. neutral | Ok, thank you and tell him that. | Ok, and say thanks for the flowers. happiness Oh yeah! Thanks mom | 21.973902 | 2.085707 |
happiness Wedding rings! neutral Oh, no...
happiness Aren't they cool? I like the settings. neutral Jen, is there someone you're not telling me about?
neutral No. I just like looking at wedding rings, OK? neutral | Women are such dreamers... | Look around. There aren't a lot here! surprise and anger... Really | 18.640099 | 3.042484 |
neutral Whatever. Just turn right here.... The freeway will be packed at this hour.... let ’ s take a side street.Go on! Get out of our way! Move, move! neutral What ’ s your problem! Geez. Having a fit is not going to help!
neutral Here, I know a short cut... just go down here, and we ’ ll cut though Ashburn Heights. Let ’ s go, let ’ s go! Watch out for that lady! neutral I ’ m going as fast as I can!
neutral Yes! We made it. 5:58, just before the library closes. neutral | You still have time to return all them books you borrow from last week. Now, head straight up | Good work, Steven! Now... what were all those stop signs about? sadness | 8.17049 | 2.986842 |
neutral No, France isn't very mountainous. But it does contain the Pyrenees, a large mountain range with high peaks and deep canyons. What kind of Climate does Japan have? neutral The Japanese climate is warm and moist in the south, mild in the central part and cold in the north. Except for Hokkaido, we don't get much snowfall at all. France has a mild climate, doesn't it?
neutral Yes, the climate of France rarely has severe winters. In southern France, one can live in comfort the whole year. Is Japan good for farming? neutral Yes, Japan is good for farming. Rice is the main crop, but Japan is also an industrial center. Fishing is very important, too. Rice isn't grown in France, is it?
neutral No, rice isn't grown in France. But farming, fishing and industry are also very important in France. I'd like to go to Japan some day. Would you like to visit France? neutral | We haven ’ t discussed any plans as yet, Mr. Smith, but if there were no other | It would be nice! Which season do most people travel? | 8.051465 | 2.446126 |
neutral Hi, why do you look so depressed today, Mike? sadness I had a terrible quarrel with my neighbor yesterday.
neutral How come? sadness It is a long story. Basically, she thought I had laughed at her while I didn't.
happiness I know everyone suffers when he is misunderstood. But why not take it easy? happiness | You are very wise. | Yeah, and try to solve the problems through communication instead | 13.113727 | 3.821957 |
neutral That's true, but what if one comes across some difficulties. He must rely on his EQ to deal with them. neutral Yes, Jerry, can you share your understanding of EQ?
neutral I think it is independent of IQ and plays a prominent role in deciding the way we live our lives. neutral Quite right. Have you noticed that a high IQ is not a must for one's success?
neutral Just as Forrest? neutral | Of all people who made great contribution to society--As well, he had an average IQ | And he has been known throughout the world. happiness Let ’ s take another cup | 8.138462 | 2.576465 |
neutral Well, I've got to stop and get gas in the car, first. neutral That won't take long.
neutral Well, it won't if there no line at the pump. neutral Well, I'm not quite ready.
neutral I'll give you five more minutes, then I'm going on without you! neutral | OK, but remember that when your friend gets back home from school he can ask me about what happens | You wouldn ’ t be serious about that, would you? anger How dare me | 8.114923 | 2.346358 |
neutral It ’ s not easy, particularly with listening and speaking, because sometimes the connection isn ’ t too good. neutral I bet you find the character difficult to write!
neutral Actually, many of the characters are the same or very similar in both Chinese and Japanese, so they ’ re easy for me. neutral So, you can read and write much better than you speak and understand other speakers, right?
neutral Yes. How are the Spanish classes going? neutral | Well, it is quite different. Because my wife is from Costa Rica where everyone knows some Spanish but | Oh, great. And my German is still poor! neutral But do you need | 8.287244 | 4.016574 |
anger You know you didn't. neutral Well, I am telling you now.
anger Yes, but you might have told me before. neutral I didn't think you would be interested.
anger You can't be serious. How dare you not tell me you are going to marry her? neutral | There was no real reason for that actually, because we aren ’ t getting married. | There was nothing more important then! surprise Really? Then when were all these | 8.058945 | 2.470786 |
neutral Did you like it? neutral Richard did, but I didn't. Of course, I told him I liked it.
neutral Yeah. So did you do anything else? neutral Well, we went to a dance club.
happiness Did you have fun there? happiness | It was really great, because the band started playing when we were coming into our parking lot. | Yes. And we saw lots of beautiful girls! anger You shouldn't be | 8.193742 | 0.623377 |
neutral Would you like to go to work or continue your studies after graduation? neutral I think I will continue my studies. Now it's not easy for a graduate with bachelor's degree to get a job since there are so many graduates with master's or doctor's degree. We are likely to lose in competing with them in the job market.
neutral So you will continue to study for a master's degree? neutral Well, I think so. But I am thinking of going aboard to get a master's and doctor's degree. If can get a Ph. D. abroad, it will be much easy for me to get a job at home.
neutral How can you finance your education abroad? It is very expensive to study abroad. neutral | My father has saved some dollars. | Many places offer scholarships, such as university administration. And if they need Chinese interpreter badly but few | 22.713598 | 5.227403 |
happiness What a great weekend that was! happiness My feeling's exactly.
happiness I really enjoy the beach in the summer. happiness I couldn't agree with you more.
happiness We should come here more often. happiness | That sounds like a plan to me. | That would be good, wouldn' t It? 0 neutral The problem is getting all | 21.952911 | 0.746654 |
neutral I think Andy's party will be fun. neutral Yeah, I think so. Oh, by the way, I need to ask you something.
neutral What's that? neutral Could I get back the sweater you borrowed?
neutral Sure. Oh, that reminds me. Could I borrow your black leather boots? neutral | That was just a joke. | Absolutely. anger Hey! Why didn ’ t those guys stop? They | 15.433218 | 2.74782 |
neutral Is there a good time for you to help me? neutral If we work on this tomorrow night, you could easily be ready by Friday.
neutral How about meeting in my office? neutral That would work out well. Bring any concerns that you might have.
happiness Sounds like you'll be able to help me a lot. happiness | Thank you very much. | I think I can do quite much of the job. 0 neutral Let's | 14.943318 | 2.972555 |
neutral Like what? neutral He hoped to live in the Korean way and asked me to give up working and stay at home to take care of the family.
neutral Oh, I see. In their culture women should put family first. neutral Yes, he said it would be better for me and for the whole family. But I simply can not quit working.
neutral So that's why it ’ s hard to have a happy marriage with a foreigner. neutral | Exactly, they just think different. | It seems so, right? disgust Yeah! That'll make things | 25.066929 | 3.729407 |
neutral I heard that the winner gets a Panda Radio. neutral Do you think you have a chance?
happiness A chance? Not just a chance, I'm a hundred percent certain.Everyone says my voice is beautiful. neutral But you haven't practised all that much.
neutral I still have 5 days to practise. It's in the bag! neutral | What did it take for them to pick your entry? Was there someone who helped with the choice of | Are your ready? OK... ( Silence ; singing ) Oh dear, this song hasn't | 8.156245 | 3.292411 |
neutral What day is today? neutral Today is Thursday.
neutral What's the date today? neutral Today is May first, 2003.
neutral Oh, today's International Labour Day. Is it our working day? neutral | Yes, of course. But this year we have one holiday on every Friday from June to August | Yes, but we can leave early this weekend. happiness It sounds great! | 8.120803 | 3.12922 |
happiness Can you take part in our picnic this Saturday? happiness That would be fine. Where are you going?
happiness We plan to go to a forest in the suburb. There is a beautiful river there. We can do some fishing. happiness Great.
happiness And don't forget your fishing tackle. happiness | Of course I won't miss it! | Yes, mom didn't buy me any new things. | 18.531752 | 3.572388 |
neutral Hey, young man! I'm your sis. Don't talk to me like that. happiness Oh, man, look at her, go! She is amazing! She should be my sis.
neutral Boy, you've got such a crush on her, haven't you? happiness Yes, I want to be her boyfriend. Just like in the movie.
neutral Are you out of your mind? happiness | It would just feel so great! | No, not all. You know how much we admire Julia Roberts! anger | 20.284885 | 3.086154 |
neutral Yes. I ’ Ve read news about him in today ’ s paper. neutral And he ’ s bright and intelligent. I ’ m sure he can pass the university entrance exam.
neutral I wish he could too. neutral How ’ s your boy, Jack?
neutral He ’ s a bit tired, you know. It often takes him a couple of hours to brush up. neutral | Oh, but mine is getting better. | Well, yours has grown-up already, hasn | 22.2899 | 4.129786 |
neutral Good morning. I want to apply for a library card. neutral Give me 10 yuan, your ID card and a photo of you please.
neutral But I hear that the card is free. neutral Yes, it is. But you must pay a deposit for the card.
neutral There will be a refund when I return the card, right? neutral | Of course, if you keep everything with yourself until next year. The deposit fee depends on whether | Exactly! If you lose or damage ours in any way we may keep all the money as | 8.237527 | 3.610119 |
happiness According to the story, it's some sort of modern dance style. happiness Like disco?
happiness Well, breakdancing is more a physical exercise than a dance. happiness And disco a kind of nightclub.
happiness Right, a disco is a place where people dance according to nonstop recorded music... happiness | Yeah! That was my point, I guess. | Yes. So, maybe we can say that both breakdancing and discofying have something | 22.079174 | 0.834243 |
neutral We will need it for both days. neutral We will need to know who will be driving the van.
neutral The van will be driven by Mary and me. neutral It needs to be back on Sunday night. Can you arrange for that?
neutral Oh yeah, no problem. Would you mind if we borrowed a few of the chairs from the lunchroom. neutral | I don't think anyone would care. | Of course not, go ahead.
happiness Thanks guys! | 22.024534 | 3.216345 |
neutral yes, though I don't think her acting skills are that great. neutral what was your impression of her when you saw her in person?
neutral she looked sweeter than her pictures. neutral did you take a photo with her?
neutral no, there were too many people. When she got out of the car, her fans were all screaming, trying to give her flowers and ger her autographs. neutral | yeah, how can i miss it for? | how dose it make feel? sadness, really crazy. She is my | 20.431042 | 2.771483 |
neutral That's my business, not yours. neutral True enough, until the time comes that you need to take my money. I don't know where you're wasting your money but I think you need to take a look at what's really important.
neutral So how do you survive from pay day to pay day? neutral I don't just survive. I put money away as well. I know when I get paid where most of the cash will go, and I stick to my plan. If I follow a budget I don't have any nasty surprises.
neutral I'm not disciplined enough I guess. neutral | What did you use to be like? | Why is it so bad today, Fred! sadness It doesn ’ t seem like | 20.957417 | 5.294681 |
neutral How would you do that? neutral I think we should do a few things at once. Improving public transport would encourage people to use that. If we also charge people to use their cars in the city centre, they won ’ t use their cars as much.
neutral I don ’ t know. I think it ’ s unfair to make drivers pay more money. They already pay a lot of tax-petrol tax, for example. neutral I think that they should pay more tax. Look at the damage they cause to the environment and people ’ s health by discharging all those exhaust fumes.
neutral The air would certainly be cleaner if there were fewer cars being used in the city. The problem is that people will see it as reducing their freedom. It well be unpopular. happiness | Yes.You have made an excellent point. | That ’ abs an idea! Maybe we can have something like car clubs. Once everyone has given up | 25.895187 | 3.285457 |
neutral Why ’ d you transfer here? neutral I wanted to attend this school originally, but my grades out of high school weren ’ t good enough.
neutral Is PCC a good school? neutral PCC is great!
happiness I hope you enjoy it here. happiness | It has become home over time! | Thanks, and so do i! disgust What about the teachers? Are | 19.658842 | 2.130318 |
neutral Yes, they are. neutral You and Tom also make a great couple.
neutral In fact, we are beginning to make preparations. neutral For the wedding?
neutral No, no, for the engagement. neutral | I guess that's what people do. | What? Did you ask him already, Jane... 1674509 2 | 21.917118 | 2.273267 |
neutral I don't think so. That way it would lose all the charm. I want it to be a surprise. I want to show her that I care about her and I hope our friendship will last. neutral yeah, that's nice.
neutral hmm, I think I've got an idea. Maybe I can get her an ever-green plant to take back home. neutral a plant? That's creative. I'm sure ever time she waters it she'll think of you. But there is a problem. Do you think it'll be able to go through the customs?
neutral I hope so. I'll make sure to get a small one so she can put it into her suitcase. I hope it won't cause her trouble at the border. neutral | well if they find out, they must have been planning on going away with their friend anyway. | It could actually work out for your good! She might have some flowers in her luggage. | 8.216996 | 3.947083 |
neutral Yes, it is. There are three bedrooms, a living room, a dining room, and a big kitchen. There's also a garden. happiness Well, that does sound nice. Have they moved in yet?
neutral They are moving today. Tom's taken the day off. He's rented a truck, and they should have all their furniture in the house tonight. neutral When are they going to have the party?
neutral Next Saturday night. You should get your invitation today or tomorrow. happiness | I am really looking forward for this. | Oh wow. This will be fun! anger Hey, I was talking about | 26.368422 | 3.971247 |
neutral Have you ever been to Xi ’ an? neutral Yes, I ’ Ve been there several times on business trips. But I have never really seen the terra-cotta warriors as it is outside the city.
neutral I ’ Ve heard many people saying that it is a place worth touring. I really want to see the old walls and terra-cotta warriors one day. Of course I won ’ t miss the local food either. You know, the sites interests a food in scenery, food is a key factor when visiting a place. neutral I agree. As long as the food is not too bizarre once I saw some people eating insects. That is frightening.
neutral Sure it is. Is it convenient to get there by plane? neutral | Well. The airport of Peking University has good connecting flights to various places around China | Yeah, it takes just half an hour. neutral It looks like a nice short | 8.196615 | 0.772346 |
happiness Well, now you know. Let's go to the lake over there. Some people are fishing over there. I haven't had a chance to fish in a lake, I really want to try. happiness I think we need to buy some baits and borrow some fish poles first.
happiness Yes. we can get what we need at the stands right by the lake. Who do you think will catch a big fish first? happiness Of course. I will.
happiness Wait and see. I want to try horseback riding after fishing. It looks very exciting and fun. happiness | That sounds like a cool experience! | Oh, yeah! | 25.045971 | 3.461123 |
neutral what do you think will happen to him? neutral well, he'll definitely lose his license, pay a fine, and maybe even spend some time in jail.
neutral that doesn't sound too promising. Does he have a defence lawyer? neutral not yet. If we can't find a lawyer for him, then the state will appoint him with one.
neutral my sister is a lawyer. I can ask her if she can help him. happiness | That would really be wonderful. | great. She has been on our side so far. Maybe there are other lawyers, like | 22.01339 | 6.100128 |
neutral I'm sorry you can't borrow a jacket and a tie. neutral Then we return to the hotel and come back.Will you change the appointment?
neutral Certainly.What time will you come back? neutral At seven, please.
neutral How many in your party? neutral | Just my wife. What about yourself? | Four. 2 women and two men. What is it? 180 yuan for | 24.512022 | 3.726939 |
neutral What are you doing? neutral I always do volunteer work on the first Saturday of every month.
neutral What kind of volunteer work? neutral I help out at the children ’ s hospital. I help plan activities.
surprise Oh, yeah? happiness | It is fun. | Yes! neutral And, what about this afternoon? Do your friends know that? | 8.428137 | 0.70332 |
neutral Tom, is Jenny crying? neutral Can you take he away from me?
neutral I ’ m just coming for that. neutral She kept on bothering me.
anger She ’ s your sister.What she asked was only duck soup for you.Why can ’ t you be good to her? neutral | What do I need to do? | disgust 'But it really gets my go. When she goes on like this... | 16.480797 | 2.136711 |
anger I'm about to explode! You ’ Ve made a mess of this matter. neutral I am very sorry to hear that you ’ Ve been having so many problems.
anger Sorry isn ’ t good enough! What can you do to help me? neutral I understand why you ’ re angry, Mrs. Wilson, and believe me, we are doing everything in our power to work this out.
anger Well, obviously, what you ’ re doing is not good enough! neutral | We have run every test possible. There seems nothing wrong with it, but maybe there is something | Mr... Wilson, let me tell my apology one more time... | 8.220519 | 2.629276 |
neutral How to apply for it? neutral In your first letter, that is, when you apply for admission, you should also tell them you need their financial aid.
neutral Then... neutral If the aid is available, they will give you two or more application forms, One is for admission, the others are for the aid.
neutral What if not? neutral | They may ask you to send a formal report about yourself and then discuss with them how to get any | When there're none, we must write again. happiness OK! It sounds | 8.082585 | 2.966186 |
neutral How was Mei ’ s party on Saturday? neutral Oh I didn ’ t go. I stayed at home with my family.
surprise Oh really? What did you do? neutral We watched lots of television and films.
neutral I see. Anything else? happiness | Yeah, it was a wonderful evening. | Well we ate too, that is very important. | 23.787224 | 3.333134 |
neutral Are you used to the climate here? neutral I think I'll soon get used to it.
neutral What is the average temperature of Beijing? neutral lt's about 180C, but in winter the temperature may fall to 10-15 degrees below zero. And we have a long winter.
neutral Which season do you like best? neutral | It must be summer, especially if there isn ’ t too much rain. In that case, people | I prefer summer, especially August when everything goes green with new plant. We can go out almost every | 8.052447 | 3.993932 |
neutral We talked to our older brothers and sisters last night and got the scoop on what that job is all about. neutral And you think I fit the qualifications?
neutral Yes. Did you know that the senior class president works for the class for life? The job doesn't stop when we graduate. surprise Really? What is there to do after we graduate?
neutral Every class reunion is organized by the president and council and anything our class does for the school in later years is headed by the president. happiness | Interesting, isn' t it? | So cool! That means my name goes down here too, huh? 0 neutral | 16.608856 | 4.057026 |
neutral Why are those people crying? neutral They must have just come back from tomb sweeping because today is Tomb Sweeping Day.
neutral Tomb Sweeping Day? What is it? neutral Tomb Sweeping Day is a traditional festival in China, on which many Chinese mourn the dead.
neutral What do they do? neutral | When someone tells off to visit the cemetery and take part in other activities related for this day, | 1. Bring food, wine ( usually dry red ) to the graves 2. Have | 8.226868 | 3.842681 |
neutral Er... Alison? neutral Ohm, hello, Marcia. I was...
happiness I just wanted to congratulate you! I mean, it was a good race and you deserve to win. happiness Well... thanks, Marcia.It's very nice of you to say so. I mean...
happiness It was that final sprint! You were great! Really! neutral | Actually, we both tried our best. | Um, well... Ok. neutral So what happened at the end? Wasn | 22.968796 | 3.970908 |
neutral But don't you want to study music? Shouldn't it be easy? neutral It should be, but there are too many options. My grades are good enough that I have a lot of choices, but after that...
neutral I know. You have to decide if you want to attend a school in a city or in the country, a big school or a small school, a public or private school... neutral Yup, you understand. And my parents are trying to pressure me into going to a Catholic college. They both attended one and think that it combines a good education with good discipline. And the tuition 3 is usually pretty low.
neutral I see. Well, don't forget to talk to the college counselor at the school. He usually gives good advice and can help point you in the right direction.He gave me some information, and next week I'm going to take a look at some of the colleges he recommended. happiness | Wish you good luck. | Good. Do keep him informed, will you? As for what other schools you choose from... well | 13.895987 | 3.839695 |
neutral I ’ m not sure. What ’ s the difference between them? neutral Public schools are usually state funded, whereas private schools usually get their funding elsewhere.
neutral Which is better? neutral One isn ’ t necessarily better than the other. It depends a lot on the school administration and the teachers.
neutral I hear you have to wear uniforms at private schools. neutral | That's right. | Yeah, they do require that. surprise Really? Why don... | 10.527207 | 2.860726 |
neutral I've made arrangements with a friend to help me. neutral You know that I only allow one absence per semester, don't you?
neutral Yes, I know. neutral Write down your name and the date on a piece of paper and give it to me.
neutral OK, I can do that. neutral | Do you have any other questions? | When are we leaving? happiness We need all the tickets, so make sure | 23.45188 | 3.589655 |
sadness It seems so strange to be here, burying you, but it's not you. sadness Ashes to ashes and dust to dust...
sadness This has been the worst and best day of my life, Taylor. They kept you in the hospital, and... sadness I'll tell you all about it another day.
neutral But you're OK? It was nothing serious, was it? neutral | Just a little food poison that they said would pass after three or four days, but... | Just some stomach- flu. The doctor said... oh! Here we go! | 8.073714 | 3.214622 |
neutral It's the gradual rise in the earth's temperature. neutral I see, so it's similar to global warming?
neutral They're related to one another, yes. neutral I heard that some people in England are pleased with the fact that the climate is becoming warmer because it's making their towns a more pleasant place to live.
neutral People joke about the benefits of the increase in temperature, but it's not all good news. They've been experiencing a lot of deadly storms there as well. neutral | Do most specialists believe we will become even more hot over then next few years? | Have we noticed anything unusual going on here? happiness The weather has become quite dry | 8.111711 | 3.875873 |
