Narrator：
Now first listen to a conversation about the family and say something about Brian’s family.
Please Listen Carefully.
Lin: Brian, what’s up? You look unhappy.
Brian: Oh, nothing particular, Lin. Just that I miss my family terribly.
Lin: Me too. How many people are there in your family?
Brian: Four. My parents, my elder sister and I.
Lin: What do they do?
Brian: My father works in a computer company, and my mother is a nurse. My older sister studies in Beijing, and we email each other fairly often.
Lin: Are your parents strict with you?
Brian: Yes, I think so. When I was at home, I had to clean my own room, help with house chores, finish my homework before dinner time, get back home no later than 9:00 in the evening, and so no.
Lin: That’s good for you. Do you get along well with your family?
Brian: Sure. I’m lucky to live in a strict yet loving family. I love them.
