Dialogue 2: The Car Trouble

Sam: Oh no, the car just stopped.

Jess: Did you turn off the engine by mistake?

Sam: No, I think we ran out of gas.

Jess: Great. Now how do we get in touch with someone to help?

Sam: Let me figure out a solution. Maybe I can call roadside assistance.

Jess: Yeah, do that. But what if they take too long? Should we start walking?

Sam: We can hold out for a bit. Maybe a kind driver will pull up and offer help.

Jess: Hopefully! I don’t want to be stuck here all night. It’s getting cold.

Sam: Let’s stay in the car for now. If nobody stops, we’ll start walking toward the gas station.
