CONVERSATION 1

Roger: Art Science Enterprises.

Tony: May I speak to Roger, please?

Roger: This is Roger.

Tony: Hello, Roger. This is Tony. I’m really sorry, but I can’t come to work today. I’m not
feeling very well and I have a fever, so I have to stay in bed.

Roger: That’s OK, Tony. Don’t worry. I hope you feel better. But let me know if you can’t
come in tomorrow.

Tony: OK. Thanks, Roger. Bye.

CONVERSATION 2

Tony: Hello Roger? It’s Tony. I’m afraid I can’t come to work today. I have a bad cough,
and my throat is very sore, so I’m just going to stay in bed, I think.

Roger: That’s OK, Tony. Hope you get better soon.
