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

PART B_2

Good day, Emma!

Good day too, Ron! What are you doing today?

I am going to buy a lottery ticket.

Really? I don’t want to upset you but the likelihood of
winning the lottery is slim to none. So I ought to say that you should try
at your own risk.

I understand that, but who knows?

Well then, if you say so.

Would you like to give it a try?

We have a better chance of getting struck by lightning, you know.
Besides, I would rather spend my money on something substantial

Fine, you have a point but that won’t stop me from trying to hit the jackpot!
