That's good...now...you should listen to it A THOUSAND TIMES....and then you will have both a British accent AND an American accent.
I can also download it on my Iphone but I can't play it on the site because Iphone does not allow Flash, unfortunately.
so it will be a brican accent...we used to say britishes are conservative while americans are more extroverted...is it true now??personally,i don't think so...
Thanks for the radio .Through the interview,I get that American culture and British culture seems to not so different as i used to think .And it reminds me of so many symnonyms between American and British English and I always feel there's some kind of fun when you "play" the words,like the example in the radio.By the way,one of the listed word"Synonomous"should be " Synonymous".
HI Tree. Thanks for your comments. It sounds like you understood the interview pretty well. And thanks for the spellling check!! :). I should have looked at that BEFORE I made the post. I am going to post it now.
I hope you sign up for the English corner next week!
I really want to join the Enlish corner this week,but i have to take part in a competition with Only,Icy,Irene...on thursday night...

Thank you for you email.In the radio, the sound of Sean is similar in our listening book.Especially in the conversation part. The key point is through the radio I kown more about the difference between Ameica and England, the language and family.However,there is still something in common ,the dilicious western food.
By the way ,I want to know what are you doing this afternoon.I've saw you taking some photoes with the still students.What happened?There were ding something interesting ?
Thanks for the comments, Ice. Glad you liked it.
Ha...so you saw ME taking pictures but you didn't see what I was taking pictures OF??? :). OK..have a look. I put the pictures on the website:

I just do not know what happen there.The students were still and made the postures.I don't know why they were doing the strange things.You know that,I am couriosity.
Ok...I was just kidding! Actually, I was curious too about what they were doing. I think they were trying to send the students a message about being careful on their bikes and being nice to eachother on the basketball court.
It was interesting but I'm glad I didn't actually have to DO it!
