B4S1 - Listening 1

Kirk: Hello, Scott!

Scott: Hi, Kirk! How are you doing with the Social Studies final project? It’s for this coming Thursday.

Kirk: Not very well, but if I scheduled my activities better, I would finish it sooner.

Scott: Sure, that’s why I took my time on this research. These final weeks are very exhausting.

Kirk: Totally! I’ve been staying up late trying to bring up a topic, but when I find something interesting, I just can’t carry on with it. Some of the topics are really long.

Scott: Maybe I can help you with that. But, if you had an idea right now, it would be easier for us.

Kirk: Sure, I have some ideas. I have even done some brainstorming about immigration, democracy, civic responsibility, and minority groups in my notebook. Here you are.

Scott: Well, I’ve been reading about civic responsibility for some time. Maybe you should pick this topic, do some research, and then put it in your paper.

Kirk: That’s a good idea! I’m keeping it.

Scott: Good! I have some references about this, check them out if you like.

Kirk: Thank you so much! If I hadn’t asked for your help, I would be lost in all this.

Scott: Well, that's what friends are for.

Kirk: Let me begin by checking your information.

Scott: Ok. I’ll be around if you need something else.
