This book is a companion to 1+X Spoken English Communication Scenario Dialogues. The two books complement each other while having distinct characteristics. This book has its own systematic approach—it is not only practical but also rich. I hope you memorize the common spoken sentence patterns, imitate them frequently, and practice them diligently. In this way, you will be able to speak fluently and express your thoughts accurately and naturally in future communications. I believe this book will greatly benefit high school students, university students, and in learning authentic and practical spoken English, enriching their expressive methods, and improving the quality of their spoken English.
