Judy: Oh, hi, Jim! Have you returned from China yet?

Jim: Hi, Judy. I'm going to spend Christmas here. There are still six months until graduation from the university.

Judy: How do you like to study, is it difficult?

Jim: Studying abroad is a great way to combine study and travel. I practice a lot every time it becomes easier for me to understand a foreign language.

Judy: Where have you been?

Jim: We had two weeks of national holidays, so I visited the capital and the neighbouring city.

Judy: Do you like the local food?

Jim: I like it! The Chinese eat rice instead of bread with various vegetables, meat and sauces. Very tasty.

Judy: Have you tried Peking duck?

Jim: Yes, but it is a delicacy, so it is eaten on holidays.

Judy: Do you want to come back soon?

Jim: Why don't you try to get into our university?

Judy: I'm afraid to try new things. But I really want to study and travel.
