Situation 11 Lunch

(After fourth period, students get a fifty minutes break for lunch. Students who have cars often drive to restaurants to eat lunch off campus.)

Barry: Kev, let's go off campus for lunch.

Kevin: Okay, where do you want to go?

Barry: How about McDonald's?

Kevin: No, I had a hamburger yesterday.

Barry: Okay. Then how about Pizza Hut?

Kevin: Pizza Hut is far from here?

Barry: Yeah, but you have a car so it's no problem.

Kevin: That's true, but I don't have much gas.

Barry: You can buy some.

Kevin: No, I can't.

Barry: Why not?

Kevin: Because I don't have much money either.

Barry: Okay. If you drive, I'll buy the gas and the Pizza.

Kevin: Now you're talking. Let's go.

(Kevin and Barry go to the parking lot, get into Kevin's car and start driving to Pizza Hut.)

Barry: Wow, when did you buy a CD player?

Kevin: Last week, it sounds great. What do you want to hear?

Barry: What do you have?

Kevin: How about Metallica?

Barry: Cool.

Situation 12 At Pizza Hut

(Kevin and Barry arrive at Pizza Hut and get ready to order.)

Woman: Hello, welcome to Pizza Hut. May I take your order?

Kevin: Barry, let's get a medium pizza and each order one half, okay?

Barry: That's sound good. I want my half with sausage, onions, mushrooms, and anchovies.

Kevin: Anchovies?! Anchovies stink. How can you eat those things?

(The woman working at Pizza Hut becomes angry because they are making her wait too long.)

Woman: Excuse me, but are you going to order the second half of your pizza?

Barry: Yeah, quit talking about how bad my pizza is and order your own half.

Kevin: I will. I would like ham and pineapple.

Barry: What? Ham and pineapple are way worse than anchovies. What are you, Hawaiian?

Kevin: No, I'm from California just like you. But Hawaiian pizza is the best.

Woman: Would you like anything to drink with that?

Barry: I'll have a coke.

Kevin: I'll like a water.

(The woman gets them their drinks.)

Woman: Here you are. That will be nine dollars and fifty-nine cents.

(Barry gives the woman ten dollars.)

Barry: Here you are.

Woman: Here is your change, forty-one cents. Your number is thirteen. Please find a table and I will call your number when your pizza is ready.

Kevin: Let's sit by the window.

Barry: Great.

Situation 13 English Class

(After lunch, Kevin and Barry go to English Class. Today their teacher, Mr. Gomez, is talking about the SAT and getting into a good college or university or college.)

Gomez: Ladies and Gentlemen, today we are not going to study English.

Kevin: Cool. You're the best, Mr. G.

Gomez: Don't be too happy. Instead, I want to talk to you about the SAT and education after high school. First, who can tell me what the letters S-A-T stand for?

Lisa: They stand for Scholastic Aptitude Test.

Gomez: Very good, Lisa.

Kevin: I thought they stand for School's Always Lousy.

Gomez: You are a good student, Kevin. You shouldn't have such a bad attitude.

Kevin: I know, but I don't like school.

Gomez: But you like English, don't you?

Kevin: Yeah, but that's different. English is fun.

Gomez: Well, what classes don't you like?

Kevin: I hate P.E. The teacher is the worst.

Gomez: Don't worry. There is no P.E. on the SAT. I have another question. Who can tell me the difference between a college and a university?

Kevin: You can only go to a college for four years, but a university has graduate schools so you can go there for a master's or doctoral degree.

Gomez: Correct. And what about a junior college?

Kevin: A junior college is only for two years.

Gomez: Correct again. And Kevin, don't worry about P.E. When you go to a college or a university, you will choose a major, like English for example, and you won't have to take many classes that you don't like.

Kevin: College sounds much funnier than high school.

Situation 14 At Home

(After school, Kevin goes home to drop off his books before the football game and the party. At home his mom asks him about his day.)

Mom: Kevin, why don't you tell me about your day?

Kevin: Mom, I had a great day today.

Mom: Really? Why don't you tell me about it?

Kevin: Okay. First, I had a really good talk with Barry this morning.

Mom: Really? What did you talk about?

Kevin: Nothing special, it was just good.

Mom: Well, that's great. What about school?

Kevin: School was great too. I met Karen and she said she would go to the party with me tonight.

Mom: What about Barry? I thought you were going with him?

Kevin: I was, but then I decided to go with Karen.

Mom: You should be careful. If you make a promise, you should keep it. And Barry has been your friend for ten years, but you've only known Karen a little while. Good friends are very important.

Kevin: I know. I feel bad, but...

Mom: Well, what else did you do today?

Kevin: In English class we learned all about college.

Mom: I thought you said you only liked rock music and you weren't going to college.

Kevin: I know, but my English teacher, Mr. Gomez, told me how cool college was so now I'm thinking about going.

Mom: That's wonderful. Tell Mr. Gomez thank you for me.

Kevin: I will.

Mom: Oh, look what time it is. It's almost five o'clock. The news will be on television soon. Let's watch together.

(Kevin looks disappointed.)

Kevin: Do I have to?

Mom: You don't have to, but you should.

Kevin: Okay.

Mom: That's a good boy.

Situation 15 Television News

(Kevin's mother turns on the television to get ready to watch the news.)

Mom: Kevin, be quiet the news is on.

Kevin: Okay.

(Kevin sits down on the sofa next to his mother. Just then, Kevin's sister, Mary, comes home. She comes into the living room and watches the news too.)

Mary: Mom, I don't know why you like the news. It's the same every day. Every day there is some crime, fire and floods. There is never any good news.

Mom: Mary, be quiet. I'm trying to watch this. I know there is some bad news, but it is important that we know what is happening in the world.

Kevin: Yeah, Mary, mom is right. It is important that we know about the world. Why are you so stupid?

Mary: Be quiet, Kevin. I'm a lot smarter than you are.

Kevin: No, you're not. You're just older, not smarter.

Mom: You are both smart. And you both have to be quiet. The news is on.

Mary: Okay, but can we watch something else later?

Mom: Yes. Now let's be quiet and watch the news.

Kevin: Don't worry about me, mom. I won't be here. I'll be at the game and the party. But Mary won't, she's too ugly.

Mary: Shut up!

Mom: I said be quiet, both of you.

Kevin: I'm going. Bye, mom.

Mom: Bye, Kevin. Remember to be home by mid-night.

Kevin: No, dad said I could come home at twelve-thirty.

Mom: Well then, be home by twelve-thirty. Your father and I will be waiting.

Kevin: I will. Bye again.
