Dialogue 4 You have a special accent.
Good morning, Mr. Cerke. I’ve been sent over from the after sale service department to fill in for Paul Jackson.
Oh, really? Nice to meet you? You have a special accent. Where is your hometown, if you don’t mind me asking?
Not at all. I was born in Japan. But I came to China when I was ten years old.
