和老外聊天的地道口语第2期:初遇相识

S: you know, Mary, I feel we meet somewhere before. Where were you born?

M: I was born in Beijing, but I spent most of my childhood in London.

S: what was your childhood like?

M: I had a pretty strict upbringing, and my parents taught at an university so they have extremely high expectations for me.

S: where did you go to university?

M: my parents wanted me to stay in Beijing, but I decided to go back to England. I graduated from University of Newcastle upon Tyne with a degree in Cross Culture Communication.

S: what is your current occupation?
