GARY: How was the exam, Richard?
RICHARD: Not too bad. I think I passed in English and Mathematics.
The questions were very easy. How about you, Gary?
GARY: The English and Maths papers weren't easy enough for me.
I hope I haven't failed.
RICHARD: I think I failed the French paper.
I could answer sixteen of the questions. They were very easy. But I couldn't answer the rest. They were too difficult for me.
GARY: French tests are awful, aren't they?
RICHARD: I hate them. I'm sure I've got a low mark.
GARY: Oh, cheer up! Perhaps we didn't do too badly.
The guy next to me wrote his name at the top of the paper.
RICHARD: Yes?
GARY: Then he sat there and looked at it for three hours! He didn't write a word!
