W: Oh no! I‘ve just declined Mary‘s invitation! Anyway, I guess we‘ll have to put off the meeting until later.

Text 4

W: Did you see Betty today?

M: Yes. When I went to the bank this morning, we happened to meet outside. She said she was going to the post office. Why?

W: We agreed to meet in the school café at 3 p.m., but she hasn‘t turned up yet. Text 5

M: I‘m so worried I‘m going to do the wrong thing.

W: Just take it easy, Jimmy. I‘m sure everything will be fine.

M: I hope so. I need the job.

W: When you meet the boss, the most important thing is to look him in the eye, smile, and shake hands.

M: Let‘s take a coffee break, shall we?

W: I wish I could, but I can‘t.

M: What keeps you so busy? You‘ve been sitting there for hours. You‘ve got to walk around. You can‘t just stay on computer forever.

W: Well, I‘m up to my neck in work. I‘ve got to finish this report. Sarah needs it by noon. I don‘t want to be scolded if I can‘t finish my work by the deadline.

M: I understand that, but you‘d feel better if you took a break, even for just a short while. Then you‘re sure to work more efficiently.

W: Now Mr. Hardy, has the situation changed since last night?

M: No. Mrs. Hamilton is still refusing to talk to us. We‘d like her to come out peacefully. The police don‘t want to charge her, but …

W: Well, it‘s her home.

M: But nobody else refused to move. You see, we‘re going to build over 300 flats in this area in place of the shabby houses. Families are expecting to move into them next year! It‘s all being delayed because of one person!

W: But Mrs. Hamilton was born in that house.

M: Of course. But we have promised to give her a modern flat immediately, a very nice flat for an elderly person living alone.

W: So, what will happen next?

M: I don‘t know, but we can‘t wait forever. The police will have to do something soon. Text 8

W: I understand how you feel, sir. But there simply isn‘t any room. The person who received your reservation call must have forgotten to write it down. I‘m afraid it was just a mistake. She is new, you know.

M: Just a mistake? Do you realize that I‘ve invited some very important people to dinner? It could cause me to lose an important business partner.

W: I‘m sorry, sir. I suggest you call them and explain the problem. I‘m sure you‘ll find several other very good restaurants around here.
