Conversation 1

Man: Are you coming to the party?
Woman: Yes, I'm going unless I get stuck at work.
Man: Really! You might have to work.
Woman: Maybe, but I'll call you if I can't make it.
Man: Well, I really hope you can make it.
Woman: Me too! As long as we don't get too busy, I should make it, though.

Conversation 2

Woman: Yes, Mr Smith, you want to see me?
Man: Yes, We need to talk about your grades. I'm worried that you won't pass the class unless you start doing better on your assignments.
Woman: Well, if I get an A on the test, can I pass the class?
Man: Yes, I think so, as long as you do all your homework assignments.
Woman: OK. I'll make sure I do better, and I'll study hard for the next exam.
Man: I hope so, because if you don't, you'll have to take the class again.

Conversation 3

Man: Can I use the conference room tomorrow?
Woman: Sure, as long as it is not booked.
Man: What should I do if it is?
Woman: If it's booked, you can use the lecture hall.
Man: Oh, that is too big I think.
Woman: Well, the conference room might be free. I'll check and let you know if it is. If it isn't, what should I do?
Man: If it's booked, then I will wait until it is free. The lecture hall is too big.
Woman: OK, I'll get back to you soon.
Man: Great. Thanks.

Conversation 4
