Eve: what are you doing on the weekend?
Sarah: My plans are still undecided. Sometime there's nothing interesting to do,but this Saturday i have three good choices. i don't know which one to do.
Eve: What are the three things? i might be able to help you decide.
Sarah: OK. First, Lucy Anderson has just moved into her new apartment,and she's give a party. if i don't go to Lucy's housewarming,she's going to be very hurt. I'm one of her closest friends, you know. Second,Carolyn invited me to spend the weekend at her family's house at the beach. Third,Cirque du Soleil is in town, and Terry asked me to go with him on Saturday night.
Eve: What's your preference?
Sarah: I'd much rather go to circus. if I don't go this weekend,i may not get another chance to see it.
Eve: a way to introduce an opinion, you should do what you feel like doing. if you go to the show,explain to Lucy and Carolyn why you're going,i'm sure they'll understand
