Lucy asked for Mike’s help to carry her big bag up to the fourth floor.

W：Can you hold the door a minute，Mike I’ve got a big bag here.
M：Hi, Lucy.Nice to see you.Up to the fourth floor.
W：Yes, please.Have you just finished work, Mike.
M：Actually, I finished at lunchtime today because they’re replacing our computers.So I’ve been at the gym this afternoon.
W：Are you going out tonight.
M：No, I don’t think so.Why Are you inviting me somewhere?
W：Oh no, I’ve got lots of work to do.I’ve actually spent all day trying to write a history essay and I still haven’t finished it.I have to hand it in tomorrow.I started it last week...
M：Well, sorry, I can’t help you with that...I never enjoyed studying history at school and I wasn’t very good at it either.
W：I don’t need any help with the essay.But you can help me by not playing your saxophone.
M：Huh.
W：I’m sorry, I just can’t stand it anymore.I’ve lived next door since June and you’ve played the saxophone every night for at least an hour.
M：But I thought you liked it.I’ve lived here for two years.Nobody’s ever complained before so I’m really surprised.This is the first time anyone has asked me not to play.Why haven’t you told me this before?
W：I’ve tried lots of times but I was afraid of sounding rude.
