input question: M: At first, they wanted to hear our harmony. We sang to them and they really liked to. So they decided that it would be best to put us together as a group. W: What are some of the distinctive features of your music? M: We have a variety of different songs; we have four different styles: soft rock, slow music, love songs and country music. But we are most at home with soft rock. I really like our voices merged together and I like how it sounds. Actually, there is a song called Studying. Our company really likes the song because it represents our voice. W: What would you like to bring to the audience through your music? M: I'd like to recommend our first song to everyone. The name of the song is Believe. The main idea we want to share is that we want to tell everyone you have to believe in yourself before people can believe in you. Actually we want to bring our music to everyone and make everyone happy. Music is something all around you. You can listen to music and you can feel what the music says.

[Q]: W: Well, I thought we should go traveling by ship for a change, so I booked two ship tickets instead. M: You should have told me or discussed it with me. W: I wanted to give you a surprise. Don't you like the idea? M: I like it all right, but it takes much more time to travel by ship than by plane. W: We have time, don't we? Every time we went on a trip, we were always tied down by schedules. This time will be different. We don't have to rush. M: You're right. This is our first trip since you retired.
