Dialogue One

Why didn’t you call me last night?

Why didn’t you call me from a CallBox?

John, I ’m sorry, the air tickets for the International Day are sold out.

Really? I didn’t expect that.

It’s possible because everyone wants to travel during the holiday weekend.

I should have booked the tickets in advance.

Take it easy. I’ll like you know if anyone decides to cancel his reservation.

That’s all right. Maybe I’ll change my plan. Thank you all the same.

Well, I think that these problems of teenagers getting into troubles with a law is mainly caused by unemployment. You see, because of the high level of the unemployment, so many teenagers nowadays leave school and find that they have no choice of getting a job. And this obviously makes them feel bored and frustrated. And other result of this, they’re much likely to get drunk and so on. Another thing of cause is that you get groups of unemployed teenagers wondering around streets with nothing to do which can easily lead to trouble of one sort or another.
