Mom: Tim? Tim? Are you home?

Tim: Yes, Mom. I’m in the living-room. What is it, Mom?

Mom: I  went to your school today and Miss Jackson gave me your report card.

Tim: Oh, is it a good report?

Mom: Don't worry. It’s excellent. You did very well.

Tim: May I see the report?

Mom: Sure. I’m proud of you, Tim. I know you worked really hard this semester.

Tim: Thanks, Mom.

Mom: But there’s one thing you need to improve.

Tim: What’s that, Mom?

Mom: Miss Jackson said you should work harder on your Spanish pronunciation. She asked me to give you this dictionary.

Tim: Yes, I know. Some of those Spanish sounds are really hard.

I’ll try my best to improve them.

Mom: I believe you can do it, Tim.
