　　Situation 1:
        　　Waking Up Late
        　　(Charles and Mike are roommates in a college dormitory.)
        　　Mike,don't you have a class at noon?
        　　Huh?I said it's eleven forty - two and
        　　you have a history class at twelve.
        　　What? Eleven forty - two? Why didn't you wake me up earlier?
        　　Because I'm not your mother.And because,if you must
        　　know,I had an English literature class until eleven.
        　　(Crawling out of bed.) Yeah,whatever.
        　　It's my fault anyway;I shouldn't be out
        　　drinking till three a.m. when I have class
        　　the next morning.
        　　Oh,you finally figured that out,huh?
        　　By the way,that's exactly what you said last Thursday
        　　morning when you got up late.You're hopeless.
        　　I thought we decided that you
        　　weren't my mother.Are you finished with
        　　your lecture?
        　　Yes,and you are going to be late
        　　for yours if you're not careful.
        　　It's already eleven fifty-three.
        　　Eleven fifty-three!? Quit talking to me or I'll never
        　　get ready.Have you seen my American history textbook?
        　　I asked you a question!I thought you told me to quit
        　　talking to you,something about making You late.
        　　Okay,okay,I'm sorry.Where's the book?
        　　It's right over there on your desk.
        　　(Grabbing the book and running for the door.)
        　　You bastard.
        　　You're welcome.
