F1: What are you so exciting about?
F2: Have you heard? John and Sylvia are getting a divorce.
F1: No, I haven’t. But I’m not surprised. To be honest, I never expected their marriage to last for very long. She is so aggressive and bossy(专横的) .
F2: Well, I think John has an affair. He met someone on the business trip.
F1: Really, how did you find that out?
F2: Sherry told me a few minutes ago.
F1: Oh, Sherry. She is such a gossip. I wouldn’t believe anything she says.
F2: No, really. This time I think we can trust her. I don’t think she’s making it up.
F1: Wow, this is news. What about their baby?
F2: I don’t know. I haven’t heard anything about that.
F1: Well, that’s too bad. Even though I don’t like either one of them, I feel sorry for them. It’s so bad when this happens especially for the child.
F2: Yeah, right. It’s easy to fall for the gossip and forget to think about the serious consequences.
F1: Still, I can’t sense surprised. Can you imagine living with someone like that?
F2: No, I can’t. She is so self-center.
F1: And what about him?
F2: I don’t know him well but he seems nice.
F1: I think so too. I’m not sure how he ever felt for her.
F2: Are you kidding? Hormones(荷尔蒙),You have to admit that she’s physically attractive. He probably couldn’t help himself. And now he seems to have fell in love with someone else.
F1: I guess he can’t control himself. I’ve heard he had a drinking problem too.
F2: Oh, I wasn’t aware of that. Well, what’s new, right? Something’s never changed.
F1: That’s for sure. Hey, what about lunch?
F2: No, thanks. I’d better to get back to work.
