2a Listen to Lin Hui and Sally’s conversation. Number the TV shows in the order you hear them. 
Sally: Hi, Lin Hui. What are you watching? 
Lin Hui: Hey, Sally. I’m watching a really funny sitcom.  
Sally: Oh, I don’t like sitcoms. What can you expect to learn from them? I like to watch the news or talk shows.  
Lin Hui: Watching sitcoms is a great way to relax! 
You can learn some great jokes, too.  
Sally: Well, I like shows that are more educational. I think even game shows are better than sitcoms. You can try to guess the answers to the questions.  
Lin Hui: Then what do you think of soap operas?
Sally: Oh, umm, well, I know you can’t expect to learn much from soap operas, but I have to say I love watching them! I plan to watch Days of Our Past tonight.
