Dialogue 1.
M: Does that ring a bell?

W: Algebra is so difficult. I just don’t get it.
Dialogue 2.
W: How can I be through with such a whole bunch of books in 10 days?
M: You have to burn the mid-night oil I am afraid.
W: I have already pulled an allnighter for 5 days.
M: You are working too hard. You should have started earlier.
W: Yes, I know now, but it’s too late.
M: Well, it’s a good lesson.
Dialogue 3.
W: Oh, I made it. It’s A. How about you?
M: I bombed the test. How did you make it?
W: It’s a no brainer.
M: But it is driving me bananas. It’s unfair. I have finished all the assignments and the research paper for the final.
W: Don’t you know professor Keller is a killer? He made several students flunk every term.
M: Anyhow, I don’t want to study any more. I just want some easy grades.
W: Don’t lose heart. You are so intelligent. You can still nail it in other tests next time.
M: Thank you. I wish I would.
