1.Jane: Arthur, it's about time we schedule the cat's annual shots. Arthur: Can't it wait a month, Jane? Things are a little tight at the moment. Jane: Addressing it promptly could save us from pricier issues later on.Arthur: Our regular vet charges quite a bit. What if we try a different clinic?Jane: I'd rather not; Bobby's been our vet for years. But I could ask about a payment plan.Arthur: That's worth a shot. If we could work it out in installments, it would make things much more manageable, don't you think?- 2. Yumi: Hiroko, I wanted to remind you that Mr. Matsumoto is flying in from Tokyo today. Have you made arrangements to pick him up at the airport?Hiroko: Absolutely, Yumi. I've got it covered. I'll head to the airport to greet him, and we should be back at the office around 4.Yumi: That's good. I was thinking, maybe you should take him directly to his hotel so he can have some time to unwind before any work-related commitments.Hiroko: Well, I had actually scheduled a meeting for both of you at 4: 30 and dinner at 7. Should I go ahead and cancel those?Yumi: Yes, please do. Considering the long flight, it's best to give him some time to relax. Plus, he'll be staying until Friday, so we can catch up on business matters later.Hiroko: Got it. I'll cancel the appointments and ensure Mr. Matsumoto has a smooth transition into his visit.
- 3. A: Hey, Yuuki. How's your preparation for the English exam going? Are you feeling confident?B: Hi, Keiko. To be honest, it's a bit of a struggle. I'm putting in a ton of effort to tackle the vocabulary, but it just doesn't seem to stick.A: I totally get that. Memorizing a large number of words can be challenging, right?B: That's an understatement. It feels like I'm going in circles. But I guess I'll just have to persist and keep practicing.A: Fair enough. But have you considered adjusting your focus a bit? Mr. Williams mentioned in class that the grammar section carries significant weight in terms of scoring.B: Really? I hadn't thought about that. Maybe that's a better strategy for me. I mean, if it helps earn more points, why not give it a shot?
- 4. Mika: Yuki, I've noticed that scratch on the side of your car. I think it's time to get it repaired.Yuki: Ah, Mika, it's not that big of a deal. It's hardly noticeable.Mika: I understand it might seem minor, but it's better to fix it sooner rather than later.Yuki: Well, yes, but you know how it goes – if we make a claim, our insurance premiums might increase.Mika: I get your concern about the premiums but think about it this way – our insurance is there for situations like this.Yuki: I know, but it feels like a hassle to go through the whole process. Plus, I'd rather avoid dealing with paperwork.Mika: I get it, paperwork can be tedious. But remember, we pay for insurance to handle these situations. It's more convenient in the long run.Yuki: True, I guess I'm just worried about the potential increase in premiums. I'll think about it.Mika: Take your time, but let's not wait too long. We wouldn't want the scratch to lead to more significant issues.
- 5. A: The school festival is just around the corner, and I can't decide which club's booth to visit first.B: I think the art club's exhibit is always interesting. They put a lot of effort into it.A: True, but the science club has some cool experiments planned this year.B: Well, I always enjoy the music club's performances. They have a great track record.A: Still, the drama club's play is something to look forward to. They've been practicing for weeks.B: Honestly, I think the debate club's discussion on current issues could be intriguing.A: You're right; they always bring up relevant topics. But the photography club's display is also worth checking out.B: It's tough to decide; there are so many options. Let's make a plan to visit as many booths as we can.
