“It’s too bad that she lost her job.” “It’s too bad that you have to go.” “It’s too bad that I found out about it.” “It’s too bad we will not be there on time.” “It’s too bad that tickets are all gone to that concert.” “It’s too bad that it is supposed to rain.” “It’s too bad that she got hurt.”

“Hi, how are you doing?” “I’m doing great. How about you?” “Not too bad.” “Do you come to this restaurant often?” “I’ve been here a couple of times, but I don’t come on a regular basis. What have you been up to?” “I’m pretty busy at work these days, but otherwise, everything is great.” “Well, have a good night.” “You too.”

Were you born in the U.S., Melissa? No, I wasn’t. I came here in 1992. How old were you? I was seventeen. So, did you go to college right away? No, because my English wasn’t very good. I studied English for two years first. Wow, your English is really fluent now. Thanks. Your English is pretty good, too. Yeah, but I was born here!!
