W: Michael, where are you heading? You seem to be in a hurry.
M: Oh, Samantha,(22)I am on my way to the bookstore.(23)The professor has just recommended to us a book on western culture.
W: I am also going to the bookstore. Let’s go there together and you can tell me something about the book on the way.
M: All right.(24)The professor says the book is written by a famous sociologist and it contains not only theory, but many stories illustrating all the culture differences between the east and the west.
W: It must be a good book.
M: Yes, what’s more, the writer has chosen simple but humorous language to make the book even more interesting.
W: Um, as far as I am concerned, a good book is one that makes people want to read.
M: That’s true. A good writer knows how to draw the readers’ attention.
W: But why are you in such a hurry? Are you really so eager to read the book?
M: Well,(25)there are over 200 students in my class and the professor made the recommendation in the class. I’m afraid if I don’t get there early enough, it will be sold out.
W: But why don’t you take advantage of the reservation system in the bookstore? You can always make the reservation online or through telephone.
M: I tried both. The website seems to be jammed and I can’t get through by phone. Considering the popularity of the book, I’m afraid I have to stand in line and try my luck.
W: I happen to have a friend working part-time in the bookstore. Let me call him and see if he can do anything about it.
M: Really? It would be wonderful. Thank you so much.
