Dialogue: M: You must be pretty excited about your trip to Europe, Dorothy. When are you leaving? W: In just two weeks, and I am excited. I've been looking forward to this training program for a long time. But there are still a few things I need to do before I go. M: Like what? W: Like renewing my passport and figuring out what to do with my apartment while I'm gone. M: You are not going to give it up, are you? W: No way! I'll never find another apartment like it around here. But I don't like the idea of paying three months for an empty apartment, either. So, I'm looking for someone to take it while I'm away. M: Um, let me think. Oh, I know just a person. An old colleague of mine, Jim Thomas. He is coming here to do some research this summer, from June to August. W: Well, that's exactly when I'll be away! M: Tell you what: I'll be calling Jim late this week anyway, so I'll mention it to him. W: Well, thanks, Bill.

I really want to learn something. M: Well, I'll speak to Professor Burman. If he thinks you're ready, I'll let you enroll. W: Oh, thanks. That's really very kind of you.
