ANN: I think I'm going to go home.

SHARON: Why? We just got here.

ANN: I know, but it's 12:30. It's pretty late.

SHARON: 12:30 isn't late! This party will probably go until three or four o'clock.C'mon, don't leave yet!

ANN: Three or four o'clock?

SHARON: Yes.

ANN: I never stay out that late. That's too late.

SHARON: But why is it too late? It's Saturday night.You have nothing to do tomorrow. Why not stay out and drink with us?

ANN: Were you so wild when you were still in Taipei, Sharon?

SHARON: Yes, I was. And I like living here.People know how to party here. In Taipei, some people know how to party.But here, everyone does.

ANN: What is that they're doing on the couch?

SHARON: They're smoking pot. Don't worry about it.

ANN: Pot? Isn't that marijuana?

SHARON: Yes, it is.

ANN: But, Sharon, that's illegal! The police could come, and we could go to jail.

SHARON: Don't worry about it. It is true that pot is illegal in America.But the laws aren't as strict as in Taiwan.If people are arrested, and they have a little pot in their possession,they don't go to jail. They just have to pay a fine.

ANN: Really?

SHARON: Yes.

ANN: I didn't know you had such wild friends. Do you smoke marijuana too?

SHARON: I tried it a couple times. But I don't like it. I like alcohol better.Don't worry about them, though. If you don't want to smoke pot, you don't have to.

ANN: I don't want to.

SHARON: That's alright. But you really should have another drink.People will probably start dancing soon.

ANN: I don't know if I can drink more. I already had two drinks.

SHARON: You had two drinks at nine o'clock.C'mon, Ann, you are in an American university now! You have to learn how to drink.

ANN: I thought a university was for studying.

SHARON: It is. We study hard all week.And then, on the weekend, we party hard. That's the best way to live.

ANN: Alright. I'll have another drink.
