Problem: M: Hi, Susan. Not so well as expected. I've left my position. I can't bear the rudeness of my boss any longer. W: What are you going to do then? M: No idea. Anyway, I've got to think about it seriously. And you? W: I've been very successful as a dancer. I like this kind of life. It is so exciting. M: You can't do it for ever. W: No, but I've decided to open a dance school once I've moved to the top. A lot of young dancers need better training, don't they? M: That's a wonderful idea.

Ranae: Yeah. Why do you want to know? Steve: Well, on Monday, I asked Jennifer out on a date for this coming Saturday night. Ranae: Wow. You've really been seeing a lot of her lately. Sounds great. Okay, write down these directions so you don't get lost. Steve: Okay, go ahead. Ranae: First, drive down 1st street going west, cross the river, and keep going straight until Pine Street. Steve: Until Pine Street, right? Ranae: Right. Then turn left, and the movie theater is the second building on the right. It's next to the church. Steve: Second building on the right. Got it. Now, can you recommend any nice restaurants? Ranae: Yeah. The Pink Flamingo serves excellent Spanish food. Steve: Well where's that? Ranae: Well, starting from the movie theater, go south on Pine Street, cross 2nd Street, and drive to 3rd Street. You'll see a parking lot on the left side of the street. Okay so far? Steve: A parking lot on the left. Okay. Then what? Ranae: Okay, then turn left on 3rd Street and drive east. The Pink Flamingo is the building just before the river on the left side. I think it's open weekdays from 10:30 in the morning to 11:30 at night, but it stays open until midnight on the weekends. Steve: Okay, I think I've driven by there before. Oh, last thing. Where can I buy some flowers? We're going out to celebrate Jennifer's birthday. Ranae: Well the only florist I know is in front of the stadium on 2nd Street. Try that one. Steve: Great. Thanks a lot.
