Dialogue 1
W: Is there anything wrong?
M: I’m worried about my daughter. She can’t decide about college.
W: Don’t worry. That’s just a part of being a teenager.
M: I don’t mind that. But she disagrees with me about everything.
W: You should encourage her to make up her mind by herself. You shouldn’t affect her decision.
M: But I just want to give her some tips.
W: Oh, she can make her own decisions.
M: I guess you are right.
W: Believe me. Everything will be ok.
M: I hope so.
Dialogue 2
W: I’m sorry, dad. But you can’t do that. It’s for me to decide.
M: Oh, I see. You’ve already decided, have you? Now, you listen to me, you’re only 19.
W: I didn’t say I’d already decided, dad. I said it was for me to decide. There is a difference.
M: Oh. So you think you can just do whatever you want, do you?
W: I didn’t say that either. I was hoping we could discuss the matter together. I want your advice but I don’t want you to tell me what to do. I’ve got to make decisions for myself, dad.
Dialogue 3
M: I’ve decided to go to the cinema alone this evening.
W: What has caused you to make such a decision? Didn’t you used to go with Helen?

M: It sure is.

M: Why is that?
W: Well, I think maybe I should find a house that is closer to where I work.
M: Maybe you’re right.
Dialogue 5
M: I can’t decide what to do today.
W: Well. Let’s go swimming.
M: Don’t you think it’s a bit cold for that?
W: Then why don’t we go for a walk in the hills. It’d be very good for us you know.
Anthony was a poor Irish man with a large family. And one morning, waking up very early from cold and hunger, he decided to go shooting in the wood near his cottage. The wood belonged to a rich gentleman and Anthony had no right to go there. But in it there were some rabbits and flocks of birds that were good to eat, and Anthony determined to take the risk. Suddenly he saw the owner with a group of friends coming towards him in the wood. With a quick decision, Anthony walked boldly up to the company and greeted them.
