19. I’m Just Feeling Homesick 1 我只是有点想家 
 
 
A: Hi, John. What’s up? 
 
B: Hi. Not much. I’m just miserable 2 as usual. 
 
A: What’s the matter with you? Don’t you feel well? 
 
B: I feel terrible. I can’t get used 3 to the food; I can’t get along with the people here. I don’t like these customs——I wish I were back home. 
 
A: Do you eat everything back home? Have you got lots of friends in your country? 
 
B: What are you trying to say? 
 
A: That maybe you have some of these same feelings back home. They just seem stronger now because you’re in a strange place. Have you thought about it? 
 
B: No, I guess I feel this way at home sometimes too. 
 
A: Maybe you’re just in a bad mood 4. Don’t worry. It will pass.

A: Why don’t you do something you enjoy to take your mind off your troubles? 
 
B: Thanks for the advice. I’m just feeling homesick I guess.
