W: When did this happen, Jeff?
M: Well, they’ve been making a low continuous sound for a day or two. But they finally went dead at 2:30 this afternoon.
W: I see.(10-1)What did you do? Have you tried the whole plant?

W: OK. Get on the phone to Tom, and try to get their stand-ins over tonight. We have to be back at full capacity tomorrow morning. Is it a major job to repair our robots?
M: About a week. That’s what the maintenance engineer says.
W: Right. Well, if you can get the ones from Tom, please ask Tom to inform Sheffield that he may need their stand-ins in case of emergency during the next week.
