M: Well, it is early in the year. How about last year? How many did you work on?

W: None. I mean that this is the first project I have ever worked on, sir. I’ve only been here for three months, and this is my first job.

M: That’s amazing. Keep up the good work, and you will go further here!

W: Hi, Jim. Why did it take you so long to answer the phone? Were you playing computer games just now?

M: Not this time. I was taking a shower.

W: I called you yesterday, but you didn’t answer the phone.

M: Sorry. I was out shopping yesterday and left my phone at home. I saw that you’d called when I got back and I tried to call you back, but your phone was off.

W: Yeah. I went to a concert so I turned my phone off.

M: So what’s up?

W: I wanted to invite you to my sister’s wedding next Saturday. Would you like to be my guest?

M: Sure. I bought a present for her yesterday. Can you come and pick me up on Saturday?

W: Of course. The wedding begins at 2 pm. I’ll come and pick you up forty minutes before that. 英语学习  /english/
