  Conversation Two
  M: Well, Claudia, how is your first day on campus working out?
  W: Actually, I’m overwhelmed. This campus is too large. I’m not really sure how to get around. How about you?
  M: Yeah, I’m having the same problem. That’s why we should leave a bit early to get to our biology class on time.
  W1: That sounds like a good plan to me! It’s 9:30 right now. I think our class starts at 10:00 a.m.
  M: Actually it starts at 10:15 a.m., which leaves us 45 minutes to find it. The schedule says the class is in the Darwin Building, but I can’t seem to find it on the map.
  W1: Since we both don’t know where we are going, why don’t we ask that woman sitting on the bench, she seems to know her way around here.
  M: All right, it can’t hurt to ask.
  M: Excuse me Miss, could you tell us how to get to the Darwin Building?
  W2: The Darwin Building? Oh yes, I remember… Do you see that building to our right there? That’s the East Dormitory. Next to it is the Science Library. What you should do is follow the path between those two buildings until you reach the other side. Then take the left-hand path and follow it to the end. It leads straight to the Darwin Building. Got it?
  W1: I think so, after we pass between the Dorm and the Library, we follow the path to the left until the end of the road, then we should be there, right?
  W2: Yes, that’s perfect.
  M: Thank you very much, indeed.
  W2: You are welcome.
