W: Hi, Bob. Thank you very much for taking me to the party last weekend. I learned a lot about our company and did make several friends.

M: You are welcome, Jane. I am very glad the party helps. I know it’s a great headache getting into a new environment.

W: Forget it John. It’s not a very important letter anyway.

Dialogue 5.

M: Jane, would you listen to me for a moment? I come here to apologize for my rudeness yesterday. Would you forgive me?

W: Well, it’s not all your fault. I am to blame too. I shouldn’t have given you so much pressure.

W: Never mind. I know you were very upset then. I am sorry I shouted at you.

M: It doesn’t matter. I know you want to help me.
