Jim : Betty, something interesting happened this afternoon.

Jim : Now, Betty! There's something I want to tell you.
Betty : Jim! You know I don't like being disturbed while I'm reading the paper.
Jim : But Betty, Hadi has invited us to a party at the University!
Betty : At the University! Why didn't you tell me?
Jim : I've been trying to tell you, but you didn't want to be disturbed.
Betty: Well, I want to be told all about it. Who invited us?
Jim : Hadi phoned me this afternoon and invited us.
Betty : What sort of party will it be?
Jim : Hadi's professor is giving a farewell party for him. The professor told him that some of his best friends could be invited too.
Betty : And Hadi thought of us! I'm very happy to be invited to the party, and I'm very proud of being included among Hadi's best friends!
Jim : Well, I hope to be introduced to Hadi's professor. I've heard so much about him. Betty : Jim! What shall I wear?
Jim : Oh, you have plenty of beautiful clothes. Of course, my best suit should be dry cleaned.
Betty : Jim, your best suit does not need be dry cleaned. It looks quite all right. But I'll need a new dress for the party, I wouldn't like to be seen at the party in an old dress. Jim : Well, I know you like being invited to parties, and I know you enjoy being admired when you're wearing new clothes, but the expense must be thought of!
Betty: Oh, the money for a new dress could be saved if you gave up smoking for a few weeks!
Jim : Now, Betty, let's be sensible. You have that wonderful blue dress that you wore to Nancy's party. Hadi and Yati weren't at that party, so they haven't seen it yet. Nobody at Hadi's party will have seen that dress, so you'll be able to wear that.

Jim : Betty, sesuatu yang menarik terjadi sore ini.
Betty: Ini adalah artikel yang sangat menarik di koran, Jim
Jim: Sekarang, Betty! Ada sesuatu yang ingin kukatakan padamu.
Betty: Jim! Kau tahu aku tidak suka diganggu saat membaca koran.
Jim : Tapi Betty, Hadi mengundang kita ke pesta di Universitas!
Betty: Di Universitas! Kenapa kamu tidak memberitahuku?
Jim : Aku sudah berusaha memberitahumu, tapi kamu tidak mau diganggu.
Betty: Yah, saya ingin diberitahu semua tentang itu. Siapa yang mengundang kita?
Jim : Hadi menelepon saya sore ini dan mengundang kami.
Betty: Pesta macam apa itu?
Jim : Profesor Hadi sedang mengadakan pesta perpisahan untuknya. Profesor itu mengatakan kepadanya bahwa beberapa teman baiknya juga bisa diundang.
Betty : Dan Hadi memikirkan kita! Saya sangat senang diundang ke pesta itu, dan saya sangat bangga termasuk di antara sahabat-sahabat Hadi!
Jim : Baiklah, saya berharap bisa diperkenalkan dengan profesor Hadi. Aku sudah mendengar banyak tentang dia. Betty: Jim! Apa yang harus saya pakai?
Jim: Oh, Anda punya banyak pakaian yang indah. Tentu saja, setelan terbaik saya harus dicuci kering.
Betty : Jim, setelan terbaikmu tidak perlu dicuci kering. Ini terlihat baik-baik saja. Tapi aku butuh gaun baru untuk pesta, aku tidak ingin terlihat di pesta dengan gaun lama. Jim : Yah, aku tahu kamu suka diundang ke pesta, dan aku tahu kamu senang dikagumi saat kamu memakai baju baru, tapi biayanya harus dipikirkan!
Betty: Oh, uang untuk membeli baju baru bisa dihemat jika Anda berhenti merokok selama beberapa minggu!
Jim: Sekarang, Betty, mari kita masuk akal. Anda memiliki gaun biru yang indah yang Anda kenakan ke pesta Nancy. Hadi dan Yati tidak ada di pesta itu, jadi mereka belum melihatnya. Tak seorang pun di pesta Hadi akan melihat gaun itu, jadi Anda bisa memakainya.
