B: Tell me what thrilled you most.
[The door bell rings and A answer it….A comes back.]
A: Where was I?
B: You were talking about your tour in Beijing
A: Oh, yeah.
B: I bet you had a great time.
A: Yes, I particularly enjoyed visiting the Forbidden City and the Great Wall, though the admission fees were a bit too high for me.
B: What were the fees?
A: Let me see….Sorry, I can’t remember any more.
B: What’s wrong with your memory?
A: I hope it’s not Alzheimer’s disease. I don’t want to see a lot of new people everyday.
B: I don’t think so. Perhaps you only forget things momentarily. You’ll be right after a good sleep.
A: I hope so. But as this is happening so often recently, I think I have to see a doctor.
B: I don’t think it’s so serious. Anyway, a bad memory helps you forget your trouble.
