G : Did you finish your homework for English
class?
B : Homework? There wasn’t any homework.
G : We had to finish reading a book and then write
a 200-word essay on it.
B : I don’t think Ms. Jones gave us any homework.
I always write what I have to do in my notebook.
Did she really tell us to write an essay?
G : Yes. Look, here’s my essay. See?
B : Oh no! What am I going to do? We’ve only got
10 minutes before class starts.
G : I don’t know. Maybe Ms. Jones will let you
hand it in tomorrow.
B : Hey, let me copy your essay. I’ll change a few
words. Ms. Jones will never know.
G : No, I’m sorry. That’s not the right thing to do.
B : Oh, come on! I thought you were my friend.
G : I am your friend. That’s why I’m not letting you
copy my work!
