W: So you are up to some tennis this afternoon or what?
M: Well, to tell you the truth, I’m not feeling so hot today.
W: Come on. How long has it been since we played?

M: Yeah. I guess you’re right. It’s been almost a week.

W: Yeah. And it was right before dinner. So we build up our appetite.
M: I’ve just been very busy. I guess. (5)And my stomach is bothering today.
W: But you look OK to me.

M: Well,(7)to be honest, I am getting tired of always losing.
