2. Write any one of the following dialogues.
(b) A dialogue between a teacher and a student about studies.
Student: Good morning, Ma’am. May I talk to you for a minute?
Teacher: Good morning, Rohan. Of course, what is it?
Student: I’m feeling a bit worried about my science grades. I studied for the last test, but I still didn’t score well.
Teacher: I see. Don’t be discouraged. Can you tell me how you usually study?
Student: I read the chapter from the textbook once or twice before the exam.
Teacher: I think I understand the issue. Just reading is often not enough. You should try writing down the important points in your own words. Also, practice the diagrams and solve the questions at the end of the chapter.
Student: Oh, I haven’t been doing that. I will try this method for the next chapter.
Teacher: That’s a good plan. And remember, if you have any doubts before the exam, always feel free to ask me.
Student: Thank you so much for your advice, Ma’am. I will work harder.
Teacher: You’re welcome, Rohan. I’m sure you will do better.
