M: So you’re going to be writing for the school newspaper?
W: Yes, I’m excited about it. I’m thinking about journalism as a career.
M: Oh! Congratulations! How do they decide whom to hire?
W: I have to send the writing sample. I used one of the essays I’ve written for the literature class, then the editor assigned me a topic to write a short article about it.
M: What did you write about?
W: Actually, it was a lot of fun. I wrote about the students’ play that has been performing this month.
M: Oh, I saw that play. The director is a friend of mine. It really caused a stir around here.
W: Yeah, I know. That’s what I wrote about—People’s reaction to it. It’s really interesting.
M: Have you finished the article? Can I read it?
W: Sure. I just made a couple of copies. So you can have one.
M: Thanks. I wish I were a better writer. Working for the paper sounds like lots of fun.
W:  Well, they’re looking to add one or two photographers to the staff.
M: You’re kidding! Maybe I’ll go over and apply.
W: If you want, we could walk over to the newspaper office and I’ll introduce you to the photography editor and some of the other photographers.
M: That will be terrific! But can we go tomorrow? I have to go to math class now. And if we go tomorrow, then I’ll have time tonight to gather a portfolio of photographs to show them.
M: sure. Or maybe you should call and set up a time to meet tomorrow.
M: Good idea. I’ll do that before I go to class.
W: All right. See you tomorrow.
