　　Thinh: Hello.
        　　Jim: Oh, hi there!
        　　Thinh: Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Thinh Nguyen and
this is my wife, Lan Quong.
        　　Jim: Pleased to meet you. My name is Jim Peters. Did you just move in next
door?
        　　Lan: Yes, we did. Have you lived here long?
        　　Jim: Me? I guess so. I've lived here for about 6 years now. Have you lived
in America very long?
        　　Thinh: No. Not really. When we left Vietnam and came to America we lived
with a cousin in Dallas for 2 years. Where do you work, Jim?
        　　Jim: I teach mathematics at Willow Springs community college. What do you
do?
        　　Thinh: I am a mechanic at Allied Diesel. I repair truck engines.
        　　Jim: What about you, Lan?
        　　Lan: I am a nurse's assistant at Whitfield County hospital.
        　　Jim: Well, Thinh and Lan, it was good to meet you. I have to go now. I'm
teaching a class this evening and I need to get to the college.
        　　Thinh: It was good to meet you, too, Jim.
        　　Lan: Yes, it was good to meet you.
        　　Jim: See you around!
        　　Thinh and Lan: Good-bye, Jim!
