        <description><![CDATA[<p>@xuchen and Poddies,</p>
<p>Yes, there are a few extra lines in the dialogue recording which should have been edited out. We are fixing it now. We apologise for the discrepancy.</p>

<p>I just listened to the lesson and that sound was wild. I don't know what it is but I can assure you there was no parrot in the studio. Must be a spontaneous sound from outside. Let me see if we can cut that out. Thanks!</p>]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[<p>Hi <strong>bendidelaowai</strong></p>
<p>其实，据了解，迪拜经济并不是以石油为主的，远不如旅游和房地产。它外来人口特别多，大部分都是南亚来的，在迪拜打工。</p>]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[<p>Hi Pete,</p>
<p>对南亚这个地方我不太了解，你说的很有意思，我们平时自动的把阿拉伯国家根式有连恰来，虽然我是地科/地理系的人我也不是对每个国家了解的很深。我听说过在迪拜打工或者工作很不错，但是自己不太想去看看。</p>]]></description>
