Conversation 1
ANDREW: I can't believe it.
ELIZABETH: What's up?
ANDREW: Just look at the mess over there.
ELIZABETH: It's unbelievable. Who would do something like this? Who'd tear out flowers and turn a beautiful park like this one into a complete mess?
ANDREW: I have no idea, but what I do know is that I get really cross when I see something like this.
ELIZABETH: Me too. This is awful.
ANDREW: I think the police should put up big signs. They should warn people not to do things like this.
ELIZABETH: You're right, Andrew. And we … should tell the police!
Conversation 2
SAM: Why don't you join our acting club, Anna?
ANNA: I wouldn't be good enough.
SAM: What makes you think that?
ANNA: Well, I was in the drama club at my old school, and there was this boy who kept laughing at me. He always said I was a hopeless actor.
SAM: Seriously? I get so angry when people say things like that.
ANNA: Well, he was probably right.
SAM: Well, we're all good at some things, and not so good at other things, but what really counts is that you enjoy what you do and want to become better, doesn't it?
ANNA: That's right. You know what? I think I'll give it a go and join the club.
SAM: Fantastic!
Conversation 3
LAYLA: What's up, Max?
MAX: Nothing.
LAYLA: Come on, what's wrong?
MAX: No, it's just … I've just spoken to Hunter, and he said that my best friend Ian said something bad about me.
LAYLA: Hang on a minute. You're cross with Ian because of something that Hunter said? How do you know Hunter's telling the truth?
MAX: I don't. But I can't go and ask Ian.
LAYLA: Why not?
MAX: I promised Hunter.
LAYLA: What?! He probably made you promise because it isn't true. You need to go and talk to Ian now.
MAX: You know what? You're absolutely right, Layla.
