13-1 Lesson 3-6-1
Hey Lucy, would you be so kind as to let me borrow your truck tomorrow? P
Sure, Jack. I'll need it back by six o'clock in the evening, okay? P
No problem, I can do that. Oh, do you think you can lend me some money too? P
My paycheck doesn't come in for another few days. P
About how much do you need? P
I need about fifty bucks. Do you think you can manage that? P
Sure thing. Let me get it for you. P
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. I will pay you back as soon as my next paycheck comes in. P
Ok. That'll be good. You mind telling me what you need my truck for? I'm just curious. P
Oh, nothing special. Do you remember my old roommate back at college? Chris? P
He just moved back into town and we decided to share my condo. I need the truck to help him move. P
If you need anything else, feel free to ask. P
Thanks! You've already done so much. I really do appreciate all this. P
Don't sweat it. That's what friends do for each other. P
13-2 Lesson 3-6-2
Helen, I need a favor. May I borrow your car next Saturday? P
No problem, but I'm going to need it back by eight o'clock in the evening. I have plans. P
Sure, I only need it for three hours in the afternoon on Saturday. P
Oh, I almost forgot, do you happen to have some money on you that I can borrow? P
I'm really broke right now, and I need some cash pretty fast. P
How much? P
Not a lot, just twenty dollars. Is that okay? P
Sure! Just pay me back whenever you can. P
Thank you so much! I don't know what I'd do without you. P
I'll be sure to pay you back as soon as I get my hands on some money! P
Sounds good, but I'm sort of curious why you want to borrow my car all of a sudden. What do you have planned? P
Well, some old high school friends are in town, and they want to hang-out. I want to show them around town. P
It'll give us time to catch up and chat. P
Sounds great... Listen, if you need anything else, just call ok? P
I think that's all I need. I really appreciate you always helping me out like this. P
Don't worry about it. This is the least I can do for you, little cousin. P
13-3 Lesson 3-6-3
Susan, I really need your help. Do you think I can perhaps borrow your SUV on Monday? P
Sure, I can help you out. However, you have to promise me to bring it back by seven o'clock in the evening. I have a date. P
I promise I'll bring it back on time. P
Hey, can I ask you for one more request? P
I'm really short on cash right now, and I don't get my pay check until Wednesday. P
Do you think you can lend me some money? P
How much do you think you need? P
I'm sorry for asking for so much, but I need about a hundred bucks. Do you think you can help me out? P
No problem, but you're going to have to wait a little bit. P
I'm not going to the bank until later today. Why don't you swing by tonight? P
You're a lifesaver! I really, really appreciate it. P
I'll come over at eight tonight for the money, and I'll pay you back as soon as I can! P
Ok. That's fine. I'm curious about why you want to borrow my car. What are you planning to do? P
Not much, an old friend of mine is flying in. He's going to stay with me for 2 weeks. I need to pick him up at the airport. P
I see. Do you need anything else? P
No, I really appreciate all this. Thanks for always helping me out. P
It's all good. That's what friends are for. P
13-4 Lesson 3-7-1
Hey Tim! Over here! P
Oh, hey Donna. Is this where we stand in line? P
Yes. Whew! I'm glad you made it on time. P
Sorry for keeping you all waiting! For a moment there, I wasn't sure if I was going to make it on time! P
It's okay. As long as you're here now, we're going to be okay. We still have ten minutes. P
Hey, that's great. I have time to prepare myself! P
You better be happy that you got here on time, because I would have been so mad if you showed up late! P
I know, and I apologize for keeping you waiting. But I'm here, and that's what counts right? P
We forgive you...But what happened? Why were you running so late? P
My ride got cancelled at the last minute. I called five cab companies, but none had any cars available. P
So, what did you do? P
I ran to the bus stop two blocks away. Luckily, the bus was just arriving. I got on, and it took me ten minutes to get here. P
Wow! You got lucky! Well...I'm so happy you made it, and on time! How could the dance start without the event coordinator? P
13-5 Lesson 3-7-2
Steve! We are here! P
Hey Tracy! I almost missed you. Is this the line? P
Yes. Thank goodness. I'm glad you came on time! P
I'm so sorry for being late. I thought I would never make it! P
Don't be anxious! You still made it in time so we're good! It starts in 5 minutes. P
That's good! I have enough time to catch my breath! P
You are lucky! If you stepped into this room a minute late I would not be happy with you. P
I know. I'm very sorry for coming late and making you worry. But I still made it, so forgive me. P
All right. We accept your sincere apology. But did something happened? Why are you late? P
I couldn't find my car keys. I searched everywhere, but it was useless. P
So what happened? P
My mom came back from work. I borrowed her car and I drove here in less than ten minutes. P
How lucky! I'm glad that you made it! The coach will be very satisfied with your improvement. P
13-6 Lesson 3-7-3
Josh! Josh! We're all over here! P
Oh Elisha! Is this where we line up? P
Yeah. I'm relieved that you made it! P
So sorry! Were you worried? I looked at the time, and I really thought it would be impossible to make it on time. P
No worries, we're just really glad you made it. We have fifteen minutes. P
Oh, I'm in luck! I have time to take a breather and calm my mind. P
You're in luck, mister! If you didn't make it on time, I would have never spoken to you again! P
I understand how you feel, and I really am very sorry. It's all good now because I made it! P
It's okay. We're glad that you made it. But why were you so late? P
I woke up late and had to run to the bus stop. But when I got there, the bus had just left, and I probably had to wait another twenty minutes for the next one. P
So, what did you do? P
A friend of mine drove by and picked me up. He was coming this direction anyway, so he dropped me off. P
I guess you got really lucky. Thanks for arriving on time! I mean how can the track team do their best without their coach? P
13-7 Lesson 3-8-1
Hey Judy! Over here! P
Wow, look at all these people. I almost walked right past you! P
I never expected to see so many people. The football game must be a much bigger deal than I thought! P
Yes, I guess it's a pretty important event. How much time do you think we have before it starts? P
The game is scheduled to start at seven o'clock. P
So we have about two and a half hours. I was planning to go grab some drinks and take a walk. P
We'll have a late dinner after the game. P
Um, but I'm starving right now. Can we eat first? P
Of course, I'll call the restaurant right now and ask them to change our reservation. P
That'll be wonderful! I think I will cheer our team a lot better with a full stomach! P
Okay then we'd better get started. We don't have that much time. P
You're right. If we don't hurry we might lose our seats! P
13-8 Lesson 3-8-2
Michelle! I'm over here! P
Oh my goodness. There are so many people! I almost got lost in the crowd! P
Yeah! I never thought this many people would show up to the basketball game! P
Me neither! This is the most people I've ever seen in one place! How long will it be before it starts? P
The game is supposed to start at six o'clock. P
We have about an hour to kill. I was thinking about finding our seats and chatting until the game starts. P
We'll grab a bite to eat after the game. P
Sounds good, but I'm really hungry now. Do you think we can grab something to eat now? P
Sure, no problem. I saw a little concession stand on the way in. P
They had all kinds of stuff. Hotdogs, hamburgers, nachos, churros, candy, drinks... P
I think we can grab some snacks there and eat a real dinner later. P
That'll be great! I'm so hungry that I'll eat anything! P
All right! Let's go, but we don't have time to dawdle! P
The game will start sooner than you think! P
Right! I don't want us to have to wait in line again, or even worse, lose our seats! P
13-9 Lesson 3-8-3
Here Charlene! I'm over here! Turn around! P
Look at all these people! I would have missed you if you hadn't called me! P
Yeah I know! I don't think I've ever seen this many people at a baseball game before! P
I guess it is a big deal. How long do you think before it begins? P
I think the sign said five o'clock. That gives us about an hour and half. P
How about looking around to see who else is here? P
A few of my friends are going to show up at the game. We'll go to a restaurant after the game. P
I would really like to eat first. I'm starving... Can we please grab a bite to eat now? P
We'll be cutting it close, but okay... P
Let's run over to the burger place across the street. We'll get something better after the game. P
Okay! That sounds like a plan! I'm starved! P
Hurry up then! We don't have all the time in the world! The game will start without us! P
Let's hurry! I would really hate to lose our seats! P
13-10 Lesson 3-9-1
Hi, Josh. What a pleasant surprise! P
Hi, Janice. I need to ask you a favor. Can you turn my Literature essay in for me during first period? Ms. Munroe is expecting to see it today. P
What for? P
I have a dentist appointment. I need to get my wisdom teeth removed. P
I see, but why don't you just do it yourself? P
I would if I could, but I'm really in a hurry. I'll be late if I do it myself. P
What time is your appointment anyway? P
I'm scheduled for eight-thirty. P
I really want to help you out, but I'm not going to be in class either. P
What do you mean? P
I have a track meet today at Washington High School. P
Oh, well. That's too bad. I'll just ask Chuck to deliver it for me instead. Good Luck by the way! P
Thanks for the encouragement! Hope your appointment goes well too! P
13-11 Lesson 3-9-2
Hello, Paul. It's so nice to see you! P
Hey, Jane. Can you do me a favor? I need you to give this note to Ms. Rosen before fourth period today. P
What is the note for? P
I have an optometrist appointment. I think I need a pair of glasses. I have a hard time seeing the blackboard these days. P
Ah, I see, but why don't you just give it to her yourself and explain the situation? P
I really would do it, but I won't have enough time. I'll be late for my appointment. P
What time do you need to get there by? P
I need to get there by seven-thirty. P
I really do want to help you, but I can't make it to class today either. P
Why not? P
I have a swim meet at Roosevelt High School. P
That's okay.. I'll just drop it in her teacher's box as I leave campus. Good Luck! Try your best and win! P
Thanks! I will try my best! I hope everything goes well with you too! P
13-12 Lesson 3-9-3
Hey, Xavier! Good to see you. P
Hello, Leila! I need a favor. Can you please deliver this to Ms. Kim during second period today? P
It's yesterday's math homework. She needs to get it today, or I won't get credit for it. P
Mind if I ask what it's about? P
I have a doctor's appointment today. I need to get my vaccinations. P
Hey, why don't you just give it to her yourself? P
I would do that if I had more time, but I'm really running late. P
What time must you get there? P
I need to be there at nine-thirty. P
I would really like to do you this favor, but I'm not going to class, either. P
Why aren't you going to class? P
I have a tennis match at Kennedy High School. P
I see. Oh, well. I'll just deliver the note a little early, right before I leave. Best of luck to you. Try your best and win! P
Thanks! I'll do my best! P
13-13 Lesson 3-10-1
We're really running late! P
Don't worry. We still have another fifteen minutes. P
I know, but we still haven't found a parking spot yet! P
Look at all those people waiting in line to buy tickets! Don't worry about it, we'll have enough time! P
Stop! Stop! Back up! I just saw a parking space. Look, right there next to the red minivan! P
Great! I think if I'm really careful I can fit. It's a bit of a squeeze though. P
Great parking. You drive like James Bond! Hurry up, and get out. We're late! Let's run! Oh, no! P
What's the matter? P
I lost my wallet. I thought I had it in my pocket! Now I won't be able to buy my ticket! P
Relax! You're always so stressed out. Look on the floor of the car, under the seat! You probably dropped it when you sat down. P
Found it. Let's go. P
13-14 Lesson 3-10-2
Hurry! We're going to be late! P
Chill! The bus is not going to leave for another ten minutes. P
We haven't even found a place to park our car! P
Even after parking, we're going to have to wait in line anyway. Everybody is going to be trying to buy a ticket to get on just like us. So calm down! P
Hey look! Over there by the green Mercedes! Hurry up before someone else takes it! P
Good job! I've never seen it before. P
Good job! That was like a scene from an action movie! Come on we need to run! Oh, man. This is not good. P
What's wrong now? P
I can't find my money clip! How am I going to buy my ticket? P
Relax! Don't panic. I brought plenty of cash. You can pay me back later. P
Let's go! P
13-15 Lesson 3-10-3
Oh, man! We are so late! P
Relax! It's okay. We still have half an hour until take-off. P
What do you mean relax! We haven't even parked our car yet! We've been circling around this lot for the last twenty minutes! P
Once we park, we'll be okay. Look at that ticket line over there. Those people are all taking the same trip as we are. There's a hundred people waiting to buy tickets. P
Stop! You have to make a turn. I just saw a blue BMW pull out on the other side of the lot. Look! Let's park between the black SUV and the purple sports car. P
Wow! You have great eyes! Hold tight! I need to get there before the red Mustang over there does! P
Great job parking! I never knew you could drive like that! Hurry up, run! Hold on! I have a big problem. P
What's wrong? P
I left my wallet at home! How could I be so forgetful! Now I can't buy my ticket! P
Calm down. You gave it to me to hold on to while you were tying your shoelaces. I have it in my bag. Let's go! Stop getting stressed over nothing. P
Got it! P
13-16 Lesson 3-11-1
Pardon me. Do you happen to know what time it is? P
Sure. It's three-thirty. P
Oh, my! I'm really late! P
Where are you headed? P
I need to be at La Guardia Airport by four o' clock. I really can't miss that flight! P
You don't have a lot of time left. I don't think you can make it if you are planning to take my bus. P
What should I do? P
Take the taxi. Here, call this number. It's the best you can do. P
Oh, thank you so much! P
Good luck, son! Have a nice trip! P
13-17 Lesson 3-11-2
Excuse me. Would you be so kind as to tell me the time? P
Let's see. It's quarter to four. P
Goodness gracious! I'm so late! P
Where are you going? P
I absolutely have to be at JFK Airport by four thirty! P
Well, you don't have much time left.. It will take too long if you take the metro bus. P
What can I do? P
You might be in luck. Across the street is the Airport Bus Shuttle office. P
I think I can see one coming a few blocks down. Run over there and get on it. It'll probably take you there in time. P
Gee.. thanks! I think I will do that! P
Hey, good luck! Hope you get there on time! P
13-18 Lesson 3-11-3
Umm, excuse me. Will you please tell me the time? P
Sure thing! Let me see. It's a quarter past five. P
Oh no! I'm going to be seriously late! P
Where are you trying to go? P
It is crucial for me to arrive at Los Angeles Airport by four-fifteen! P
You don't have enough time to get there by bus... I suggest you find another way. P
What do I do? P
You may be in luck! That truck that just stopped at the red light is the truck that carries fuel to the airport. P
I think if you run over to the driver, and ask him really nicely, he might give you a ride. P
Thank you! Have a nice day! P
Good Luck! P
13-19 Lesson 3-12-1
Would you please hurry up and finish your homework? P
I will. I just need to do one more page of math. P
Why aren't you doing everything at once? P
I am just a slow learner. I will be done soon. P
If you don't finish in 5 minutes, I'm going to go see the movie by myself. P
No, but please wait for me. I'm almost done. P
All right. P
Thank you. P
13-20 Lesson 3-12-2
Shake a leg! You need to hurry up and complete the dishes before mom gets home. P
All right, I am. Let me just finish watching this episode. P
Why are you always postponing your chores? P
I just feel like doing it later. Eventually I am going to finish it. P
If you don't do it now, I'm going to eat the ice cream by myself. P
No you are not. You need to wait for me. P
Okay. Hurry up. P
Fine. I will do it. P
