[originaltext]M: Hello, Heather! I’m looking for you!W: What can I do for you,

M: Hello, Heather! I’m looking for you!
W: What can I do for you, Jeremy?
M: Well, (1) I have a party this weekend, so I want to know if you would like to come.
W: Wow Jeremy, I’m so excited to be there! I’m sure it’s going to be a lot of fun.
M: That’s great. I’m really excited too. (2) But I hope a lot of people don’t crash the party. My house is only big enough for the people I invited.
W: That’s really rude! But Jeremy, can I ask you a few questions about the party? You see, I’ve never been to a party before.
M: What? You’ve never been to a party before? What do you mean you’ve never been to a party? How is that possible?
W: (3) YoUKnow, well, I usually spend my weekends studying. So what time do you think the party will start? 6 p.m.? 7 p.m.?
M: Are yoUKidding? Parties don’t start until late, like 10 p.m.
W: 10 p.m.? But it is the latest time for me to go back home.
M: Are yoUKidding? We are not in primary school, right?
W: (4-1) Yeah, but, yoUKnow, it’s my parents’ rules.
M: (4-2) Just make up an excuse. Tell your parents you’re sleeping at a friend’s house.
W: Maybe it’s only what I can do; otherwise I’m supposed to be home just when the party is starting.
M: Don’t worry. It’s normal!
W: Well Jeremy, what do you think I should wear? Should I wear something formal or casual?
M: Uh, Heather? We’re in high school. I don’t think anybody even has any formal clothes in their wardrobe.
W: OK, so you think I should dress down? Should I wear jeans and a T-shirt?
M: Yeah, definitely wear something casual. It’s not going to be a very fancy party, so there’s no reason to dress up.
W: All right Jeremy, I think I’m ready. I promise you, I’ll be there at 10 p.m.
M: Actually, there is one more thing I have to teach you. You have to be fashionably late.
W: What? You mean I should be late to the party?
M: That’s right. (5) You have to make people think you are so cool, and have so many other exciting things to do, that you couldn’t be there on time.
W: But why? I don’t understand!
M: Oh, god! What can I say! You can consider it to be one kind of party convention for girls. Yes, it’s convention.
W: So can I understand in this way: the later I come, the more people think I am really cool?
M: Yeah, that’s it! And if you really want to look cool, don’t go to the party on time at all!
