M: The weather forecast says it will rain today.
W: Yeah, doesn’t it always? [4]They’ve been saying that for a week and I haven’t seen much sign of it so far.

W: If it’s raining heavily after class．wait for me and I’ll bring you an umbrella.
M: That’s kind of you to offer．But don’t worry, I’ll probably just wait it out.
W: By the way. what are the chances that you might be able to have a word with Professor Simpson in Criminology class? [5]We still need some resources for our Psychology project and his input might help.
M: I could ask him, [5]although I don’t know how eager he’d be to give us information about such a topic.

M: Good thinking. Let’s give it a shot.
W: That’s the spirit.
