1. A: Are you sure you don't want me to drive? Look at the traffic!

B: Hey, don't worry. I'm fine. Whoops!

A: Careful. Not so fast.

B: Don't worry. I'm fine. Now what's this thing again?

A: The brake! I said. "Brake!"

B: Oh, yeah.

2. A: I think there's someone in the house.

B: Are you sure?

A: Yes, the lights were off when we left.

B: That's funny. Oh, I'm sure it's okay.

A: Be careful.

3. A: Look—over there in the garden.

B: Where?

A: There. Oh, do something quick. Oh, I'm so frightened of those things.

B: It's okay. I've got it. Are you really frightened of this? It's the garden hose.

4. A: Quick! Look in the kitchen.

B: Where?

A: There, behind the door. Oh, I hate those things. Can you do something?

B: It's just a little mouse. Nothing to be afraid of.

A: Oh. I can't stand mice. Do something!

B: Go get it, Fluffy.

5. A: I'm sure I saw a big, black spider under the bed.

B: A spider? Are you sure?

Let me check.

A: Did you get it?

B: Ah, yes here it is. The missing button from my coat. I've been looking for it for days.

6. A: listen. I can hear someone downstairs.

B: Are you sure?

A: Yes. listen to that noise.

B: Let me check.

A: Be careful!

B: Don't worry. Everything is all right. We forgot to turn off the TV.
