R: Rebecca M: Mr. Hung
Rebecca has some questions for her English teacher, Mr. Hung.
R: Mr. Hung, are you free right now?
M: Yes, Rebecca. What can I do for you?
R: Could you tell me how I can get a good score on the test?
M: Can you be a little more specific?
R: Well, should I focus more on grammar or vocabulary?
M: Both of those things will be on the test, so they are both important.
R: My last English teacher told me that vocabulary was more important.
M: Yes, I think that’s true for communication in general, but remember that this is a test.

蕾貝嘉: 我的上一個英文老師告訴我單字更重要。
洪老師: 是的,我想對於溝通來說整體上確實如此,但要記得這是考試。
