  028 possibility and impossibility
          1. In all likelihood, I think this teem will win.
          2. There is no likelihood of his coming again.
          3. It seems hardly likely that they will agree with you.
          4. I guess he’ll fail the exam.
          5. Is there any possibility of their success?
          6. They’re predicting a good harvest this year.
          7. There’s a much probability that he can be saved.
          8. I suppose he could have gone to Europe.
          9. Maybe he has too much money.
          10. Who do you think will win the game?
          Dialog 1
          M: I’m sure it will be wet when we arrive.
          W: Yes. I dare say it will be.
          M: It will be Sunday so I expected everything will be closed.
          W: No. I don’t think that’s possible. Some places are sure to be open.
          M: But the bank should be closed so we shouldn't to be able to get some
money.
          W: Mmm, you may be right.
          M: Do you think we’ll need our overcoats?
          W: No. We couldn’t possibly.
          M: Why not?
          W: It will be summer. So it will be hot.
          M: Is that very likely in England?
          W: Yes. It could happen.
          Dialog 2
          W: Sam, what shall I do with my stocks? Will I lose money?
          M: There’s a possibility.
          W: What do you mean by that?
          M: I mean if you don’t sell your shares now, it’s quite likely that you’ll
end up losing your shirt.
          W: Is that so?
          M: Absolutely. Take my word for it.
          Dialog 3
          M: This cake tastes terrible. I’m sorry. Let me get something else to
eat.
          W: Well. It’s not too bad. But you may have used too much flour.
          M: I don’t think so. I’m sure I used two cups.
          W: Well. Perhaps you’ve left it in the oven for too long.
          M: Yes. I might have.
          Dialog 4
          W: I can’t find my purse. Have you seen it?
          M: No, I haven’t.
          W: I’ve looked everywhere for it. I must have left it somewhere. I hope I
haven’t lost it.
          M: Perhaps you left that at school.
          W: No, I had it when I left school this afternoon.
          M: Well. Didn’t you go around to the Smith after school? You might have
left it there.
          W: Yes, I’d better give her a call now.
          M: But she can’t be home now. She might have gone to the library.
          W: Perhaps I should call her later.
          Dialog 5
          W: Waiter, I’m afraid you must have calculated my bill wrong.
          M: There’s a possibility. I’ll check it.
          W: Thank you.
          M: That’s all right. I’ll be right back.
          Dialog 6
          M: Lisa, I’ve been thinking of something.
          W: What is it?
          M: Well. I’ve done a lot of business for my company. And now I feel like
going into business for myself.
          W: Do you mean you want to sell up your company of your own?
          M: There’s a possibility. What do you say?
          W: That’s not a bad idea. Bet after all you should get some sound financial
guarantee.
          As you are a student of English, it is very likely that you will be
interested in England. That’s where the language was first spoken. Bet England
is often called by other names. This often confuses people. And I wonder if you
know what these names actually mean. So what I’d like to tell you about now is
this matter of names. I believe you’ve heard people use the names English,
Britain or Great Britain. And perhaps you’ve also heard people talk about the
British Ireland.
