Now listen to a conversation between two students.
W: I don’t know about you,  but I’m going crazy this semester!
M: Why? What’s going on?
W: I’m just so busy! Some of my classes are really difficult. I’m stressed out because I have a big test and a paper due next week. I’m worried about my grades, especially geology—I’m afraid I might fail that course. Ugh! I just wish I had more time to study !
M: Wow. I know what you mean. There aren’t enough hours in the day.
W: The Student Service Club keeps me busy too. We have meetings every week. I’m the club president,  which means I have a lot to do,  much more than I can deal with right now.
M: Well,  your coursework is more important than being president of the club. Couldn’t you just quit the club? I mean, if you’re concerned about failing a course...
W: Quit the club? That would disappoint a lot of people. I can’t just walk out—I’m the president. But... I don’t have the time to do everything I’m supposed to. I mean, I’ve really been neglecting my duties.
M: Then isn’t there someone else who can help you with your duties? I mean, you’d better ask for help,  get other people to chip in and do more of the work. You’re the president, but you’re not the only one in the club, right? Ask other people to cover for you, at least until you get your grades up again.
