Now listen to a conversation between two students.
Male Student
Hey, Marcia. You seem worried. Is something wrong?
Female Student
Hi, Lance. Yeah, I actually just found out some really frustrating news.
Male Student
What’s the problem?
Female Student
Well, please don’t tell anyone, but it turns out that I FAILED calculus this semester, and I won’t be able to get my diploma unless I go to summer school.
Male Student
Oh no!
Female Student
I guess have no choice but to go to summer school, because I NEED to graduate… but it’s a major problem.
Male Student
I’ll bet.
Female Student
You see, I was going to work as an intern at the Elm City Newspaper this summer. If I have to skip that internship… like, it will be a major problem for me. I mean, I’ve always wanted to work full-time at the Elm City Newspaper, and that internship could have been the ticket that I needed to land my dream job.
Male Student
Well, why don’t you just take a summer school class and complete your internship at the same time?
Female Student
I’m afraid that it would be hard for me to JUGGLE so many responsibilities. The Elm City Newspaper is notorious for its demanding internships. Umm… in fact, they usually choose new employees from among former interns… because being able to fulfill all of the obligations of the internship PROVES that you’re a dedicated worker. I really need to do my best this summer, and I don’t want to spread myself too thin.
Male Student
That’s definitely a problem. I guess the other solution is to REJECT the internship and try again for it next summer, when you’ll have your diploma and be less busy. I mean, if you reject the internship for now, you can finish up your degree in peace this summer, right?
Female Student
But I mean, if I reject the Elm City Newspaper’s offer of an internship this summer, there’s no guarantee that they’ll extend the offer for next summer. I might lose a once in a lifetime chance. And also, once summer ends, I don’t know what I’ll do professionally for a year while I wait for a chance to reapply. So I’m really confused about what I should do next.
