Read the below conversation. M: When I got home last night I found a letter from the school I used to study in. The students there want me to go back and talk to them. W: Oh, really? And are you going? M: I don't know. I used to hate school, so I don't feel like going back. W: But it's different now. M: Yes, I know. But it's still a difficult situation. You see, when I was at school I used to be bad at studies and none of the teachers liked me. W: Well; I think you should go. When I was younger, I used to dream about meeting a famous pop star. You can't let them down. What would the listener say?
