B: "Well. He doesn't wear ties that often."
A: "We have some nice pants. You can also get him a belt with it."
B: "That sounds good. Which one do you recommend?"

day."

V. LEE EL SIGUIENTE DIÁLOGO Y REALIZA UN RESUMEN.

Conversation

A: "Hey Mike. I forgot about registration. I'm a day late, so all the classes are mostly full. What do
you think I should do?"
B: "You're screwed. You can't do anything about that. You have to hope that you get some classes
that will be useful."
A: "Do you think going to the registration building will help at all?"
B: "No. They will tell you the same thing in a worse way."
A: "Did you register yet?"
B: "Of course. Registering for classes is not something you want to miss."
A: "What classes do you think are still open?"
B: "Well, I know psychology 101 is a big class, so there will always be seats in that class. You can
also get into Sociology."
A: "That's helpful. Thanks. But what do you think about philosophy? I wanted to take that class this
semester."
B: "I took that class last year. The professor is really cool, so if you go to his office, you can have
him sign a card that will let you in even if the class is full."
A: "He does that?"
B: "I guess that's because so many people drop out of that class."
A: "That makes sense. I think I'll do that. Thanks for all the help."
B: "No problem man."
_

B: "He's a terrible instructor and demands a lot, but fortunately, he's an easy grader."
A: "What did you end up getting?"
B: "I got an A-. Sounds good, but none of my test scores were that high, so I don't know how I got a decent
 grade."
A: "That's probably because he grades on a curve."
B: "Are you enjoying the class so far?"
A: "I hate it and I was about to withdrawal. But after hearing your experience, I think I will tough it out."
B: "Yes. Definitely stay in the class. You will get a better grade than your test scores. He does that

The coronavirus pandemic is changing the way people celebrate major events and holidays
Here’s how they’re adapting. (Published Fri, Apr 17 2020)

wn’s fifth family members traveling from Texas, North

ng to be Carolina and other locations to attend the affair
ear, with in Fredericksburg, Virginia

But as Jackson’s April 2 birthday approached,

his parents, Fred and Elizabeth Brown, began
to realize that due to the coronavirus pandemic,
they wouldn’t be able to host the event in
person. Instead, they held the party on Zoom.
Guests sent presents in the mail and the family
put up decorations and made homemade
cupcakes to make it feel as normal as possible. 
When it came to blowing out the candles, some
family members even had their own treats with
lit candles on screen to share the experience
with Jackson.
Although it was an unusual birthday, Jackson still had a good time. “That’s all that we can ask for,”
Elizabeth, 36, tells CNBC Make It. 
“Instead of opening wrapped presents, he was opening Amazon boxes,” Fred, 32, adds with a laugh. 
As springtime holidays and events come and go, many others are also finding ways to celebrate
virtually, reaching friends, family and community members through video conferencing and social
media.
Here’s how several people across the U.S. are adapting their traditions and celebrations to life during
a pandemic.

“How social distancing has led some to reconnect with old friends”

Others, like Austin, Texas-based Josh Rubin, 41, director of creative strategy for The Daily
Dot, are using this time to reconnect with old friends. Rubin recently organized a reunion with
members of his college a cappella group, the GW Troubadors — their first in about 20 years.
@jrubin tweet
Rubin posted on Facebook to see if any former members would be interested in having a
reunion and within 24 hours, more than 30 people, spanning from the class of 1995 to the
class of 2001, said that they were.
Before the reunion, Rubin had each person record themselves singing their part of their alumni
song, James Taylor’s “That Lonesome Road.” He then edited the recordings together and
debuted the video during the group call. It was such a such a success that they’re already
planning their next collaborations.
“It’s been 20 years since I’ve seen most of these folks,” Rubin says. “There was nostalgia:
remembering things that I haven’t thought about in almost two decades, immediately flipping
back into the same kind of patterns and relationships we had in college.
“It was some of the most fun I had since this whole thing has started.”
