Ronald: Uh, I drove past your office yesterday. Receptionist: Okay. How about the day after tomorrow on Wednesday at 4:00 O'clock? Ronald: Uh. Do you happen to have an opening in the morning?

I suffered a few scratches on my hands and knees, but I'm most concerned that the swelling in my ankle hasn't gone down yet. Receptionist: Well, did you put ice on it immediately after this happened? Ronald: Well yeah. I just filled the paint can with ice and ... Receptionist: And so after you removed the paint can ... Sir, sir, Mr. Schuller, are you still there? Ronald: Well that's part of the problem. Uh, the paint can is still on my foot. What would the listener say????

Question: Read the below conversation. Patient: Hi. Dr. Hyde? Dentist: So, what's seems to be the problem today? Patient: Well, I just came in for a check up and a dental cleaning. Dentist: Hum. Open up. Let's take a look ... Patient: Okay. Uh ... Dentist: Hummmm. [Humm? Uh?] Wow! I've never seen one like THIS before. Let me try this. Patient: Uhhh ... Ouhhhh [Man screaming in pain ...] Dentist: Well, besides a lot of plaque buildup, there is a major cavity in one of your wisdom teeth. [I feel that.] Hasn't this given you any trouble? Patient: Well, the tooth has been bothering me, and it sometimes hurts when I drink something cold. Does it look that bad? Dentist: Well, we're going to remove the decay, and then we'll either put a filling in, or if the decay is extensive, we can't repair it, we might have to put a crown on your tooth. Or as a last resort, we may have to extract the tooth. Patient: Uh, well, that sounds painful! Dentist: Don't worry. I've done this ... once before. [Huh?] Nah, just relax. Patient: Wait! Aren't you suppose to give me something to dull the pain? Dentist: Uh, chicken. Oh yeah. I almost forgot. We can either use a local anesthetic or nitrous oxide ... laughing gas... to minimize the discomfort you might feel. Or you can just grin and bear it. Patient: Nah, Nah, nah! Put me under! [I thought so.] I can't stand pain, and I'd rather not be aware of what's going on. And, if I need a filling, can I get one that looks like my other teeth? Dentist: If we can save the tooth with a filling, I recommend a high-strength silver alloy filling instead of a porcelain one. It'll probably last longer. Patient: Okay, well whatever. Let's get it over with. What would the listener say?
Answer: Dentist: Okay, pleasant dreams. Drill please.
Please answer this: Read the below conversation. M: Hello, and welcome to our program "Working Abroad". Our guest this evening is a Londoner, who lives and works in Italy. Her name's Susan Hill. Susan, welcome to the program. You live in Florence, how long have you been living there? W: Since 1982. But when I went there in 1982, I planned to stay for only 6 months. M: Why did you change your mind? W: Well, I'm a designer. I design leather goods, mainly shoes, and handbags. Soon after I arrived in Florence, I got a job with one of Italy's top fashion houses, Ferregamo. So, I decided to stay. M: How lucky! Do you still work for Ferregamo? W: No, I've been a freelance designer for quite a long time now. Since 1988, in fact. M: So, does that mean you design for several different companies now? W: Yes, that's right. I've designed many fashion items for a number of Italian companies, and during the last four years, I've also been designing for the British company, Burberry's. M: What have you been designing for them? W: Mostly handbags, and small leather goods. M: Has the fashion industry in Italy changed since 1982? W: Oh, yes. It has become a lot more competitive. Because of quality of products from other countries has improved a lot. But the Italian quality and design is still world-famous. M: And do you ever think of returning to live in England? W: No, not really. Working in Italy is more interesting. I also love the Mediterranean sun and the Italian life style. M: Well, thank you for talking to us, Susan. What would the listener say?
