PART B_1

Let’s read the dialogue. I will play Ron, and you will play Emma. Then, we’ll switch roles.

PART B_2

Emma, you seem upset. What’s the matter?

Oh, it’s nothing.

Come on. You know you can tell me anything.

Well, I can’t focus on my tasks because my colleagues keep on asking
me questions. I’ve got two projects that are due today, Ron.

Oh, yeah, that’s a problem. Well, If I were you, I’d let them know about the deadlines. Perhaps, they might even lend you a hand.

But I’d rather work on it on my own.

You must be under a lot of pressure lately. But it’s unlikely that they’ll change their behavior unless you make them aware of your situation.

You’re right. Besides, they are my colleagues and we should help out
each other. I shouldn’t take them for granted.

Yes, you all need to see eye to eye to avoid misunderstandings such as this.

Thanks, Ron. I needed to hear that today.
