Revision 3, Exercise F, page 166.0:01
Speaker 1: I haven't had a chance to relax lately because I've spent the past few weeks studying in the library every single night.0:06
As a result, I haven't really been eating properly and feel a bit under the weather.0:15
Still, I'm willing to put in the work as I want to do well in my finals next month and graduate with a good degree.0:19
Once all of this is over, I hope to be able to secure a good job, and my hard work will finally pay off.0:26
I'm having a really hard time in the office at the moment, and it's been getting me down.0:37
I have a great relationship with my coworkers, but the manager is making my life impossible.0:42
Even though I try really hard, he is constantly criticizing me.0:48
And making me feel inadequate in my job.0:52
Just last week, he shouted at me in front of all my colleagues.0:55
To be honest, if I didn't need the money, I would definitely quit.0:59
Speaker 3: I really dread going to school these days.1:05
The coursework isn't the problem, but one of the boys in my class.1:10
He's always calling me names when he sees me, and even takes my lunch money so that I end up having nothing to eat all day.1:15
I haven't mentioned it to anyone because I'm embarrassed that I can't defend myself, but I think if it goes on any longer, then I'm going to have to say something to one of my teachers.1:24
4 months ago, I had a skiing accident and had to stop working.1:39
Since then, I haven't been receiving any income, so I have been forced to live off my savings.1:44
The thing is, because of all my bills, I don't have much money left in the bank.1:51
I'm really worried I may have to take out a loan just to make ends meet.1:56
I feel like I'm always on the go.2:05
Don't get me wrong, I love being active, but at the moment I have too much on my plate.2:07
Every day after school, I do a variety of extracurricular activities and don't get home until quite late.2:12
Recently, I've even been falling behind in my studies.2:18
I think next term, I'm going to sign up for fewer sports and concentrate on my schoolwork instead.2:22
