Basic Listening Lesson 07

 我们是无聊的人吗，不，我们不是，至少我们还有爱好。

A: "Hey Joanne. What are you up to?"

B: "I'm just watching some television."

A: "I'm so bored. I don't know what I'm going to do today and it is only ten in the morning."

B: "Me too. Do you think we are boring people?"

A: "I don't think we are boring. It's just that we don't have any hobbies."

B: "That's right. What do you think we should do as a hobby?"

A: "That all depends on what you like to do. For example, I like to doodle on the notepad, so I'm thinking¹ about doing some real drawings²."

B: "I like to play the piano for fun."

A: "Yeah. That can be a good hobby."

B: "Hobbies are great. I'm going to make a list of all the things I like to do."

A: "That's a great idea. I'm going to do the same."
