Problem: M: Well, I have an important interview on Saturday. Maybe you could give me some tips on how to make a good impression. W: Sure. First, write down something about your education and work experience. Take it to the interview. M: All right. W: Also, you need to find as much information as you can about the company. You can do this in the library. Have they sent you some brochures? M: Yes, but I can do it better on the Internet. W: That's a good idea. And another thing, mmm, be prepared to say why you would be good for the job. M: Oh, yes. They may want to know what contributions I can make to the company. W: And then don't forget to prepare some questions that you would like to ask them. There's usually time for that at the end of the interview. M: Why should I ask some questions? W: It always makes a good impression if you ask some questions about the job. It shows you really care about what kind of company you will work for. M: Thank you so much for all your advice.

You're going to love this. They're going to bring some of the corn from their garden. Daniel: Oh, their corn is always so, so good. Ashley: Yeah, I know. It's wonderful. Daniel: So, um, yeah. What about drink? Ashley: Well, we're going to have soda and juice, and ice water as well. Daniel: Okay. And what about dessert?
