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: Are the Chinese noisy and ill-mannered?
Jim: Oh, this is a stereotype. I agree with you, they are noisy. But at the same time, they are friendly and ready to help at any time. They like foreigners.
Judy: Do you want to come back soon?
Jim: I miss my hometown and friends, but studying abroad helps me to be independent. I control the finances, the daily routine and make decisions myself.
Judy: I wish I could do the same!
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.
Jim: I think if you study hard for the next six months, you have all the opportunities to study abroad.
Judy: Okay, can you help me find the university's website?
Jim: Of course! In the meantime, let's go buy Christmas gifts?
Judy: Good idea! Let's go!
