Rose and Lisa are teenagers from the USA. They are video chatting.
Lisa: You look so tired, Rose. What's wrong?
Rose: Lisa, I feel so sleepy these days.
Lisa: Oh, you mean you don't
get enough sleep
. Why?
Rose: Because we have too much homework. I don't
have enough time
to finish it. That almost
drives me mad
.
Lisa: Why not ask your parents for some advice?
Rose: Mum and Dad both
work all day
and they're too busy to
have time for
me. Can you give me some advice, Lisa?
Lisa: Sure, Rose.
Perhaps
you should see how much homework you have every day and learn to
manage your time better
.
Rose: OK. I'll
try
. Maybe I can do part of it at school.
Lisa: And see if you've wasted time after school.
Rose: Mm, sometimes I can't stop playing computer games with my
close
friends online.
Lisa: I think you'd better complete your homework first.
Rose: You are right, Lisa. I will plan my daytime carefully and
go to bed earlier
.
Lisa: Tell me if you have any problems, Rose. See you.
