Why are you so sad, Alice?

Is something wrong?

Oh, my sister has just told me she got a job in Boston,

and she's moving away.

But that's great news.

You should be happy for her.

I am happy for her,

but I'm sorry for myself.

My sister and I have always been so close,

and it will be hard to live so far away from each other now.

We had the best time hanging out, laughing, eating.

I won't be able to see her that often from now on.

I'll miss her very much.

Don't take it too badly.

You'll be able to video chat with her as often as you want.

You won't even feel she's far away.

That's true, I suppose.

But it would have been better if she'd found a job here.

Boston is a really cool city.

You could go up there for weekends and vacations.

Yeah, you may be right.

Look at it this way.

If she hadn't got that job,

she would have been really disappointed.

Yes, I know this is the opportunity for her lifetime.

And she simply can't let it slip through her fingers.

She's very excited about it.

I mustn't spoil things for her.

Cheer up.

Come on.

Let's go to a cafe or something.

Okay, thanks, Tom.

I feel a bit better now.

Look at this lamp!

It's so beautiful!

It would be a great gift for my grandma!

But it's so expensive.

Just look at the price.

It's going to cost you an arm and a leg.

That's because its design is handmade.

So you would pay such a high price for it?

Do you have that much money?

I have some savings.

Oh no!

What happened?

I put the lamp back to its place,

but it fell and crashed to the floor and shattered into pieces.

Now all my savings will go down the drain,

and I won't be able to buy my grandma any gift.

Let's get out of here quickly before somebody sees us.

Luckily, nobody saw anything.

Hurry up!

Are you kidding?

I can't do that.

I'm not a coward.

What do you mean?

You want to pay $200 for that lamp?

Then how are you supposed to be able to buy your grandma a gift?

I'm going to borrow some money.

I have no choice.

It's my responsibility.

And I feel sorry for the owner.

Oh, come on.

For him, it's just a drop in the bucket.

To you, it's a lot of money.

I know, but I would feel so ashamed of myself if I just ran out without telling him.

I couldn't look at myself in the mirror if I did this.

How are things going for you at work at the moment, Tina?

Not well, I'm afraid.

I've gotten myself into trouble.

Oh?

How's that?

What happened?

I took my eye off the ball when I was trying to negotiate an important deal

and managed to lose the deal at the last minute.

Sorry to hear that.

How did your boss react to this?

She was really angry and lashed out at me saying I was losing my touch.

It was quite a slap in the face because I've brought in many good business opportunities until now.

That was very insensitive of her.

Yes, she's straightforward and lets you know what she's thinking.

So you want to quit now?

No, on the contrary.

I want to prove my boss she was wrong to judge me by one incident.

I want her to see I'm still very competent and skillful.

You're right.

You can't judge someone by one action,

but by the sum of their career.

It seems like only yesterday that my son Matt was just a little baby in my arms.

But now that he's 18,

I keep asking myself, where did the time go?

He is about to fly the nest.

He's been admitted to Oxford University, so he's moving there.

We are now empty nesters, too.

My son Josh has already left home.

We only see him a couple of times a year.

How old is he now?

He's 22, and he's the spitting image of his dad at around the same age.

They've got the same eyes and nose,

100

the same hair color, and they are even the same height.

101

They're both so tall.

102

Tall men seem to run in the family.

103

He's just like him in character, too.

104

Even though we're sad that he's left,

105

it's normal that he's done so.

106

Yes, it's sad when your nearest and dearest move away.

107

Our daughter lives in Canada,

108

and we hardly ever see her.

109

It's hard not being able to visit your own flesh and blood very often.

110

On the other hand, we have more time to walk the dogs,

111

slowly renovate our new home,

112

and cherish the relaxed moments together between our hectic working lives.

113

Hi, Lily.

114

Did you have a nice weekend?

115

Yes, I did.

116

I got to spend time with my family and I feel so refreshed.

117

I heard you went to a party this weekend and I was so surprised to hear that.

118

You told me that you were staying in on Saturday night because you were tired and needed some rest.

119

That's why you refused to go to the movie theater with me.

120

Who told you I went to a party?

121

Paul said that he had seen you there.

122

How come you didn't tell me about it?

123

Cause I was only there for a few minutes.

124

I chatted to Lisa briefly and then I left.

125

But why did you go at all?

126

I noticed my sister forgot her phone at home and I went there to bring it to her.

127

In case something happened and she needed it.

128

Are you telling me the truth, Lily?

129

Honestly, it's true.

130

I wouldn't tell you a lie.

131

If you don't believe me, you can ask Paul.

132

Okay.

133

I believe you.

134

Sorry, Lily.

135

That's okay.

136

Hi, Olivia.

137

I wonder if I could have a brief chat with you.

138

Yeah, sure, Chloe.

139

Please have a seat.

140

So, what is it?

141

Well, it's a delicate subject.

142

I don't know how to begin.

143

I've made a big mistake today.

144

It was an accident, actually.

145

Chloe, please cut to the chase.

146

Just tell me what's wrong and I'm sure we can sort it out.

147

But please promise me not to get upset.

148

Okay, I promise.

149

Well, today I did some online shopping at work.

150

Then I accidentally paid for it with the company credit card that was lying in front of me.

151

I mistook it for my personal MasterCard when I made the purchase.

152

I see.

153

How much did you spend?

154

$1,500.

155

Oh, that's a lot of money.

156

I know.

157

I bought some gifts for my family.

158

Well, there's a procedure to deal with this.

159

I will make a deduction from your final salary payment to recover the costs.

160

Thanks a lot, Olivia.

161

I promise to be more careful from now on.

162

One more thing.

163

If you're getting your work done on time,

164

I don't have anything against shopping online at Workplace.

165

But if you're falling behind because of this, then I'm against it.

166

So please don't let this affect your productivity.

167

Of course not.

168

You know I've always submitted my projects on time.

169

Yes, I know.

170

Just keep up the good work.

171

Sylvia, I did something wrong,

172

and I feel so guilty.

173

What did you do?

174

I needed to do an assignment on the play The Merchant of Venice,

175

and I borrowed Peter's laptop for that.

176

I found his assignment on the same topic on his laptop,

177

and decided to copy it.

178

The teacher got really upset when she noticed our assignments were identical and failed us both.

179

I didn't have the courage to tell the teacher the truth.

180

I just couldn't bring myself to do it.

181

Oh, Victor.

182

What were you thinking?

183

It was obvious the teacher would notice the assignments were identical.

184

Well, I just hoped she would turn a blind eye to it.

185

This is too serious to let it pass.

186

You should come clean about it.

187

Poor Peter!

188

He must have worked so hard for that assignment.

189

It's not fair that he should be punished because of you.

190

I know.

191

That's why I told you I feel guilty.

192

You have to pluck up the courage to confess the truth and apologize for what you did.

193

You owe this to Peter.

194

Fine.

195

I'll try to make amends for what I did.

196

I'm going to call Peter right away.

197

Melissa, what time do your kids go to bed?

198

At about 8 p.m on weeknights.

199

So early?

200

Yes, I believe a good night's rest helps their performance in school.

201

My kids go to bed at different times.

202

Kevin goes to bed at about 9.30.

203

And Susie at 10.30.

204

Aren't they tired the next day?

205

Don't you think they should go to bed earlier?

206

No, they are fine.

207

Kids are all different.

208

There is no use to put a child to sleep

209

if they're just going to lie in bed with their eyes wide open.

210

So you think we should let them go to bed when they're tired?

211

But kids never admit they're tired Well,

212

I can't really see the point of forcing kids to go to bed

213

They could end up going to sleep two hours later,

214

just lying in bed It all just depends on who you are and how much sleep your brain and body needs

215

But parents also need time on their own Yeah,

216

but if my kids were all in bed at 8,

217

I would spend very little time with them But if they're up late, they get cranky.

218

That's why they need to go to bed early.

219

I think parents should be able to personalize bedtimes for each and every child.

220

All children have different needs involving sleep.

221

There are several kids who do fine in school with just eight hours of sleep.

222

Hey Beth, did you hear Lucy and Max broke up?

223

Yes, I heard that!

224

What's more, she's going out with David!

225

Get out of here!

226

I saw them together yesterday.

227

But I had no idea there was something going on between them.

228

Maybe it's better this way,

229

because Lucy and Max didn't have anything in common.

230

That's right, I think they just grew apart,

231

because they are very different.

232

But David doesn't seem to be the frat match for her either.

233

What does she see in him? seeing him.

234

You've got me there.

235

Didn't you used to like him?

236

I liked him until I found out he cheated on his last girlfriend, you know.

237

Really?

238

Then I doubt they will stay together too long.

239

Oh well, time will tell whether they stay together or not.

240

Put on some sunscreen, Matthew

241

If you spend too much time in the sun without putting on sunscreen You are likely to get a sunburn

242

Lips get sunburned too So we should also apply a lip balm that contains sunscreen Here Dad,

243

is getting a suntan really dangerous, as they say?

244

What do you think?

245

Well, the truth is that the sun is more dangerous now.

246

Sunlight is not like it was many years ago.

247

The Earth has an ozone layer,

248

which should protect the Earth from powerful UV rays.

249

The problem is, the ozone layer has been damaged by the pollution.

250

One of the biggest threats to the ozone layer is cars,

251

the exhaust gases from cars.

252

So what's the solution?

253

People should avoid driving from now on?

254

Well, maybe driving less would be a good thing if we want to save the ozone layer.

255

How can we protect ourselves from UV rays?

256

We should avoid the strongest rays of the day,

257

usually from 11am to 4pm, and apply sunscreen.

258

you
