9. Listening text Some good advice Two college students are chatting. Tina wants Sara to go to a disco with her, but Sara is nervous about going.

10. Tina: I’m going to Belle’s Karaoke Bar and Disco tonight with some friends. Why don’t you come too? Sara: Oh. I’m sorry, I can’t. T: Oh, come on. You never go out anywhere.

11. S: To tell you the truth, I’m too nervous. T: What are you nervous about? S: Well, suppose someone offers me drugs? T: Just say “no”. You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to. S: They’ll think I’m stupid.

12. T: Nonsense. Lots of people don’t take drugs. I don’t. Anyway, if they think you’re stupid that’s too bad. Who cares what they think? S: I’ve never drunk alcohol before either. T: It’s OK to drink orange juice or something instead. S: Yeah, but I’d really like to try beer, only I might get drunk.

13. T: Then you should just have one beer and drink it slowly. And it would be a good idea to have something to eat before you go out, like rice or noodles. S: Another thing I’m worried about is that I might start smoking again. I used to smoke and it was really hard to stop.

14. T: Yes, I know what you mean. But I’ll help you and you can help me. If someone offers you a cigarette, don’t take it. I’ll remind you not to smoke and you can remind me. S: Yeah, that’s a good idea, thanks. T: So, anything else you’re worried about?

15. S: Umm, just one more thing. T: What? S: I can’t dance. T: (laughter) Well, you’ll have to learn. Let’s get my CD player and I’ll teach you.

16. Writing Read this letter and imagine you are the adviser who deals with students’ problems. Write a letter to give Xiaolei some helpful advice.

17. Dear…, Can you help me, please? I have tried to stop smoking several times. I am OK for two days and then I feel really sick and irritable and I have to start smoking again. I know smoking is a bad habit,but I just can’t seem to give it up. Do you have any useful tips? Your sincerely, Li Xiaolei

18. Sample Letter

19. Dear Li Xiaolei, I am sorry you have had so much trouble trying to stop smoking, but I am glad you are still trying. I hope the tips below will help you. First of all, don’t give up. The more often you try the more likely you are to eventually succeed.

20. When you feel irritable, don’t automatically reach for a cigarette to make you feel better. Take a few moments to relax. Start by breathing deeply and lifting your arms out to the side and over your head.

21. It is a good idea to drink lots of water and eat lots of fruit when you are quitting smoking. This will help to remove the nicotine from your body faster and you won’t feel so sick.

22. It is normal to feel a little stressed when you first give up smoking, but try to remember that it will only last a few days and then you will begin to feel much better.

23. Keep up the good work, Li Xiaolei, and remind yourself how much healthier you will be when you finally quit. Good luck and best wishes, Sun Gao
