Conversation Two
M: Excuse me. My watch stopped running and I’m not sure what’s wrong with it.
W: Well, let me look at it.
M: OK. It’s a new watch. I’ve only had it for about a year.
W: Hmm. It seems that it just needs a new battery. They only last about a year, you know.
M: Oh, that’s a relief. I was hoping it wasn’t broken or something. In fact, last week I got some water on it and I was afraid that the water might have ruined it. How much is a new battery?
W: It’s six ninety-nine plus tax.
M: Oh dear, that seems like a lot. I thought my friend said she paid about three ninety-nine for a battery.
W: Well, she may have. But we’re a watch repair shop and we install your battery and then guarantee it for a year. If you have the watch cleaned here we guarantee it for an additional three months.
M: Well, I guess you get what you pay for. I’ll get my battery here. How long will it take to put it in?
W: Usually I can do it right away, but right now I’m way behind in my repair of a large shipment of watches. They all need to be fixed by this afternoon. Can you leave your watch here until about 5 P.M.?
M: Oh dear. I’m afraid I can’t. I need to get back and I have to work this evening. So I couldn’t pick it up by five. And I have to have it by tomorrow.
W: Well, then maybe I can just squeeze it in now. It’ll only take a few minutes. Can you wait?
M: OK. I’d really appreciate that. Sure, I’ll wait.
W: OK. Just sit down over there. I’ll have it fixed in a few minutes.

Passage One
A tiny village somewhere in Britain was badly affected by a cat. The cat was stuck in the middle of the road due to being over frightened by the speeding vehicles. A passionate truck driver stopped his truck beside the street in order to help the frightened cat. However, something out of imagination happened. His truck slipped down the road since it was not firmly locked. It crashed into four parked cars, crashed through a bush, ran alongside a river and damaged several blocks of houses. The cat bit the driver on the hand while he was carrying it, which resulted in an injury.
Here is another story about cats. A family cat rescued a nine-month old child by informing the parents who were then cooking in the house. The cat cried out loudly when it saw the baby struggling in the river beside the house. The parents said the cat would receive a good reward of a beautiful coat for its extraordinary deed.
