#Person1#: Excuse me, sir, but are you Mr. Robertson from Australia?
#Person2#: Yes, I am.
#Person1#: How do you do, Mr. Robertson? Welcome to Beijing!
#Person2#: How do you do?
#Person1#: I'm Lily.
#Person2#: Oh, it's great to meet you, Miss Lily.
#Person1#: I'm also glad to meet you. Please come this way. That's our car. Your baggage can go in the boot.
#Person2#: Good.
#Person1#: Is this your first visit to Beijing?
#Person2#: This is my first visit to China. It has been my long-cherished desire to pay a visit to your beautiful country.
#Person1#: You are going to stay in Beijing for...
#Person2#: Five days. And then I have to fly to Xi'an. My wife will be waiting for me in Hong Kong. But on my way to Hong Kong I will visit Guilin first.
#Person1#: That's a wonderful idea. Well, Mr. Robertson, were you born in Australia?
#Person2#: No, I was born in London.
#Person1#: No wonder I can understand you so well.
#Person2#: Yes, I speak British English with a bit of an Australian accent.
#Person1#: I find it hard to understand some Australian friends who speak Australian English.
#Person2#: Do you? I think it is because we Australians speak very quickly.
Lily's giving Mr. Robertson a reception who comes to Beijing for the first time. Mr. Robertson tells Lily his travel plan and they talk about the Australian accent.
