ロキシーとおじいさんが、ロンドンのウェストミンスター寺院に来ています。
Grandpa, so many kings and famous people are buried here.
That’s right, Roxy. Westminster Abbey is well-known for that.
Oh, look, Grandpa. This is where Professor Hawking is buried.
Yes, he lived close to me in Oxford when I was a boy. He grew up to be a famous scientist. He eventually changed the way we see the universe.
He was from Oxford?
Yes. But some people don’t realize he was British because they remember only his computer voice.
Ah, I see.
同僚のシーナとジョナスがラージのことを話しています。
Sheena, can I ask you something?
Sure, go ahead. I hope I can answer.
What’s going on with Raj in our Mumbai office? I hope he’s OK.
Oh, he’s fine, but I forgot to tell you. He left the company.
Raj left? Why?
He moved to the UK with his wife to get a better job.
Oh no! I wanted to email him so I could ask for his help again.
入院しているデレクに、マネジャーのシンシアがお見舞いに来ています。
Derek, how are you feeling?
Hi, Cynthia. I’m good. I’m getting tired of the hospital food, though.
Yeah, but it’s healthy. You look good.
Thanks. The doctors say I’ll be able to leave the hospital next week.
Good. You know we had to cancel the Japan tour.
Yes, Bill told me. I’m really sorry about that.
Derek, you have to be more careful. If you carry on like this, the band could break up.
I understand.
異星人のゼイトクスが、キャロリンの営むラーメン店に来ています。
Irrasshaimase! Ahhhhh! What are uh, hello?
I am a Vegan, from the planet Vega 6. I heard you serve Vegan ramen here.
Yes, but it’s pronounced “vegan.”
Oh, sorry.
No problem. Anyway, you can’t order unless you buy a ticket first.
OK. What do you recommend?
The French onion soup ramen is popular.
Sounds good. I’ll order that. Can I slurp my noodles?
Yes, that’s normal here.
Great. We also have that custom on Vega.

I’m so sorry. Some urgent matter came up, and I couldn’t …
What on earth were you doing? Don’t you understand how I felt sitting at the dinner table alone?
I’m warning you. If you do this again, I’ll break up with you!

I’d like to see Professor McVay today.
Thank you for your call, but you can’t see Professor McVay unless you have an appointment.
Let me see. How about next Thursday at 10 a.m.?
