***** NOT A TEACHER *****
Mrs. Jones: My daughter makes $500,000 a year at her job. How much does your daughter make?
Mrs. Smith: My daughter doesn't work. She is in school now. (= She is a student). When she graduates next year, she will be
making $1,000,000 a year.
Mrs. Jones: Oh! And where is she at this moment?
Mrs. Smith: Actually she's at school in another country. She'll be returning home in December for the holidays.
Mrs. Jones: Oh! And where is your husband now?
Mrs. Smith: He is now at the school where our son studies. I think that you know which school. It's that school on George
Washington Boulevard.
Mrs. Jones: Does your husband pick up your son every day at school?
Mrs. Smith: Yes, he does. Our son really wants to be picked up at his friend's house, but we think it's safer if my husband picks him
up at school at 3:15 every afternoon.
Mrs. Jones: By the way, do you work?
Mrs. Smith: No, I don't. But I am seriously thinking about going to school ( = become a student). In fact, I went to the school (that I
am thinking about) yesterday and asked for some information.
Mrs. Jones: And where is your dear mother?
Mrs. Smith: She's in the hospital.
Mrs. Jones: Anything serious?
Mrs. Smith: No, she's getting a facelift. She hates those wrinkles.
Mrs. Jones: How is she doing?
Mrs. Smith: Very well. My husband and I were at the hospital last night to visit her. She'll be there for a week, so we will be
going to the hospital every day. All the doctors and nurses say that she now looks to be only 40 years old.
Mrs. Jones: Oh!
Mrs. Smith: Any more questions?
Mrs. Jones: Did you say that your daughter is going to earn $1,000,000 a year?
Mrs. Smith: Yes, I did.
