Waking Someone Up
Ann:Hey, Jim, it’s time to wake upŒ and get out of bed.
Jim:Do I have to get up now?
Ann:You’d better get up, or you’ll be late.
Jim:
What are you talking about? My alarm hasn’t even gone off yet.
Ann:
Yes, it did. It went off 30 minutes ago. You slept right through itŽ. You’re like a dead person while you sleep.
Jim:I must have slept right through it.
Ann:Rise and shine! Sleepyhead!
Jim:Just let me sleep 5 more minutes.
Ann:The early bird gets the worm.
Jim:I know. I know. But I don’t want any worms.
Ann:
Ha! Ha! If you don’t make an effort now, later on it’ll be a lot tougher for you.
