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

Hi, Emma. I just watched Revengers yesterday. Steel Man’s suit really caught my attention. Have you watched it?
|
Yes, I watched it with my younger brother. The movie was fantastic. Why the sudden interest on Steel Man’s suit, though? |
|
Well, Steel Man’s suit is a product of nanotechnology. I’ve been hearing a lot about nanotechnology these days.
|
|
True. It’s revolutionizing modern medicine. In fact, nanobots are starting to replace some conventional medical methods. They are supposed to make critical medical procedures less dangerous. |
|
Indeed. There are several studies that show positive results on nanobots attacking cancer cells without affecting the healthy ones. I hope this kind of innovation will be easily available to everyone in the next few years.
|
|
I hope so too. After all, everyone deserves the best medical treatment there is. |
|
I’m glad we’re on the same wave length.
|
|
Likewise. Anyway, catch you later. |
