Section B
1b Listen and  the description words you hear in the box in 1a. 
John: What do you want to do today, Mary? 
Mary: I want to watch a movie. Are there any good movies showing right now? 
John: Hmm, let me look in the newspaper... How about something exciting, like an action movie or a scary movie? 
Mary: Oh no, I think those movies are so meaningless.   
John: Well, most of the movies on right now are action movies or scary movies.  
Mary: Oh, maybe we should stay at home and watch TV then. I want to watch something relaxing, like a game show or a sitcom.
John: Hmm. I don’t really like those kinds of TV shows. I think they’re boring. I like to watch talk shows. They’re more enjoyable.  
Mary: OK, I like talk shows, too. I think they’re wonderful. I like to find out what different people think about a subject.  
John: OK, great. There’s a talk show at 4: 00 p.m. Let’s watch that one.
