M: Hi, Anne. How is your paper?
W: What paper?
M: You forgot it? The paper we are going to hand in this Friday. Professor Smith assigned it.
W: Oh, I see. I finished it last week. How is yours?
M: I have just started to work on it.
W: Are you crazy? You know what? Only four days left.
M: Yes, I know. I can’t get my inspiration until the last minute. I need the pressure.
W: Oh. I’m just the opposite. If I don’t have enough time to prepare, I can do nothing.
M: What’s your paper on?
W: William Shakespeare.
M: Wasn’t he a dramatist? I thought we were supposed to focus on a poet and his works.
W: He wrote some poems, don’t you know?
M: Really? I never knew that. I guess I’ll learn more from your paper. I want to write something about Keats, but I don’t know where I can find any useful information.
W: Uh-huh. Don’t worry about it. I have bought some poetry anthologies of Keats. Maybe they will be useful to you.
M: Thank you so much. You are really giving me a timely hand. When can I get these books?
W: Will tonight be all right? I have to buy something now, but I’ll be around after dinner.
M: That sounds good. I’ll see you then.
