1. A: What do you think of Chris?
B: I like talking to him. He knows something interesting about practically everything.
A: Yeah. I know. And he's really serious about studying, too. He wants to go to medical school, so his grades have to be perfect.
B: He must be a good student.
A: He's a great student—top of the class last year.
2. A: You know Brandon Kent, don't you?
B: Oh, sure. He's a really nice guy. He took a whole day off last month to help me move into my new apartment. Then he drove me to the mail so I could pick up some furniture for my new place.
A: Yeah, that's what I like about him. In fact, he's coming over this afternoon to help me with my math assignment.
B: Lucky you!
3. A: I can't stand that Terry Dey.
B: Really?
A: Yeah, The other day, we were walking down the street past this homeless man who asked us for money. His clothes were torn and dirty.
B: Yeah?
A: Well, as soon as we walked past him, Terry made jokes about his clothes.
B: No way! That's terrible.
4. A: Are you going to Tony's party on Friday night?
B: Yeah, Are you?
A: Of course. He has great parties, don't you think?
B: Definitely. It's because he gets so excited about everything. Everyone sees him laughing and having fun. and then they start enjoying themselves, too.
A: You're right. He's an amazing guy.
5. A: Have you seen Patrick recently?
B: No, I haven't. We were supposed to go to a concert last weekend, but he said he was too sick to go.
A: Oh, that's too bad.
B: The thing is, he didn't tell me the truth. My brother saw him at a party the same night, having a good time.
A: Oh! I really hate it when people lie like that.
B: Me. too.
6. A: I just talked to Chuck.
B: How is he today?
A: The same as usual. He's always in a bad mood. Talking to him is really difficult. It's easy to say something that really upsets him.
B: I know. I wonder why he's like that.
A: I think it's because he isn't doing well at school this year.
