W: Hey there. I’m your neighbor. My name is Shirley.
M: Hi, Shirley. I’m Bob. It’s nice to meet you.
W: Nice to meet you, too.
M: Please come in.
W: Here is a little gift for your family. It’s a calendar with all the community events on it.
M: Thank you! I really appreciate it.
W: Since we are neighbors, if you need any help with anything, please feel free to ask me.
M: I will. Actually, I am worried about the security of this community because my house has been robbed twice before.
W: Oh don’t worry about that. There are security guards on duty 24 hours a day.
M: Really? That’s good. Are there any supermarkets in the neighborhood?
W: Of course. There is a Carrefour nearby. I’ll take you there sometime if you want.
M: Terrific!
W: By the way, there will be a party for all the new neighbors the day after tomorrow. I hope I will see you there.
M: I’ll be there.
W: Great. I’ve got to go. See you later!
M. OK. Come and visit anytime.
W: Thanks. I will!

Deep Spring is an American college. It is an unusual college. It is located high in the mountains in California, not in a college town. The campus is a collection of old buildings with no beautiful classrooms. The only college-like thing about Deep Springs is its library. Students can use the 17000 books 24 hours a day. The library is never crowded because there are only 24 students at the college, and they are all male. There are only five professors. These teachers believe in the college, but they are not well-paid. In fact, they only get paid about 9000 dollars a year. The college gives teachers and students something more important than money —peace and quiet. There is no place like Deep Springs. Students are there to learn and they cannot run away from their problems because there is no place to run to. At most colleges, students can close their books and go to a film, or they can go out to restaurants or parties, but the students at Deep Springs have completely different activities. They can talk to each other or their teachers, or they can go out for a walk in the mountains, and that’s about it. Deep Springs is far from the world of restaurants and cinemas. There isn’t even one television set on campus.
