watches the news too.)
Mom, I don't know why you like the news.It's the same every
day.Every day there is some crime, fire, and
floods.There is never any good news.
Mary, be quiet.I'm trying to watch this.I know there is some
bad news,but it is important that we know what is
happening in the world.
Yeah, Mary, mom is right.It is important that
we know about the world.
Why are you so stupid?
Be quiet, Kevin.I'm a lot smarter than you are.
No you're not.You're just older,not smarter.
You are both smart And you both have to
be quiet; the news is on.
Okay,but can we watch something else later?
Yes. Now let's be quiet and watch the news.
Don't worry about me mom.I won't be here.
I'll be at the game and the party.But Mary won't;
she's too ugly.
Shut up.

I'm going.Bye mom.
Bye, Kevin.Remember to be home by midnight.
No,dad said I could come home at twelve-thrity.
Well then, be home by twelve-thirty.
Your father and I will be waiting.
