Sophia and A-Pi were college classmates. Now A-Pi is a reporter, and Sophia is a secretary. One day, they met on the Zhongxiao East Road.

A-Pi: Long time no see. How are you?
Wow, you look busy, Sophia. Oh, I remember you are a secretary.
Tell me, what’s it like to be a secretary?

Sophia: It’s tiring. I’m so busy.
Actually, I’m more of a personal assistant.
I take on a lot of responsibility and oversee projects. Many secretaries do now.

A-Pi: What do you mean?

Sophia: The office has changed.
The computer and e-mail have freed everyone up from all that menial typing.

A-Pi: So secretaries are doing more?

Sophia: Yes, but really, many did before, too.
It is said that a business is only as good as its secretary.
Secretaries do all the work, while the bosses sit back and watch.

A-Pi: So now, are businesses realizing the important of secretaries?

Sophia: That’s right. And with computers, secretaries are doing more and more.
How about you? Why do you want to be a reporter?

A-Pi: Because it’s my hobby! It’s also my father’s expectation, so I just do it.

Sophia: How about your work? Is it interesting?

A- Pi: At the beginning, it’s really a task.
I must do everything by myself. But now, practice makes perfect! I feel so good
now! (Phone ringing)

Sophia: Sorry, I have no more time to talk. Goodbye.

A-Pi: Goodbye. She is a busy girl.
