Chris: Hi, Mum! I'm at home.

Mother: Oh, hi, Chris! You are late today. Are you hungry?

Chris: No, I'm not. I can have dinner at six when dad comes home.

Mother: Very good. Then you can do your homework, Chris, and watch television after dinner.

Chris: Yes, Mum, but... can you help me? I don't understand thе spelling rule \(^1\) .

Mother: Oh, sorry, son. I can't help you now, I'm cooking. Ask your brother.

Chris: Dan, could you help me with this spelling rule?

Dan: Sorry, Chris. I'm busy. I'm doing a very difficult exercise.

Chris: Well, but who can help me?

Dan: I think, grandad can. He knows all the spelling rules.

Chris: Who? Grandfather?

Dan: Yes, he does. Go and ask him.

Chris: OK. Grandad! Could you help me? Mum is cooking and Dan is doing his homework and I don't understand this spelling rule.

Grandfather: Poor \(^2\) Chris! Take your books and go to the living room. I'm coming.

Sue: Hi, Betty! It is so good to have you for lunch. How are you? How is John? How are David and Sally?

Betty: Hello, Sue! Not so many questions at once \(^3\) , dear. David and Sally are fine. John was ill but he is getting better now.

I'm very busy. You can say that my life is not easy at all.

Sue: Is it not? Can I help?

Betty: Oh, thank you, dear. I'm all right. I'm just trying to keep fit, do morning exercises every day. You know I am keeping to a diet.

Sue: Are you successful?

Betty: I think I am but I don't know. I only feel I'm always busy.
