Tony: excuse me, are you Nick?

Nick: yes, I am. Can't you recognize me, Tony?

T: yeah. I haven't seen you for a couple of years. I'm glad to meet you again.

N: me too.

T: where have you been all these years?

N: I've been to Tokyo for doctor degree.

T: have you finished your courses?

N: yeah. I got my degree this July.

T: congratulations!

N: thanks.

T: will you go back to work?

N: no.

T: why?

N: because the cost of living there is too high.

T: but so far as I know, the salary there is the highest in the world.

N: yes. But as I said, the cost of living is too high. You surely earn more, but at the same time, you spend more. You will find you don't have much saving after working several years.

T: I see.

N: moreover, the pressure of surviving Tokyo is extremely great.

T: I know. Many people commit suiside there every year.

N: right. So I prefer to return to this city. Although it's small, the salary is not as high as Tokyo, but it's more comfortable to live.
