It's Hard To Manage a Busy Schedule

(1) Tyler: Listen
Hey. When is our history [vocab word=test]test[/vocab]?
(2) Cherry: Listen
The history test [vocab word=start]starts[/vocab] at 1 o'clock.
(3) Tyler: Listen
When does the test [vocab word=end]end[/vocab]?
(4) Cherry: Listen
It's from 1 to 3.
(5) Tyler: Listen
Oh, man. I have a basketball [vocab word=practice]practice[/vocab] at 3.

"Oh, man" is similar to "Oh my God".

(6) Cherry: Listen
Go to your practice [vocab word=after]after[/vocab] 3, then.
(7) Tyler: Listen
No. My [vocab word=coach]coach[/vocab] is very [vocab word=strict]strict[/vocab]. I always go to my practice [vocab word=on time]on time[/vocab].

"on time" means "not late" (not 3:01 or 3:05).

(8) Cherry: Listen
Okay. [vocab word=finish]Finish[/vocab] your test [vocab word=before]before[/vocab] 3.
(9) Tyler: Listen
Haha. Yeah. That's a [vocab word=funny]funny[/vocab] [vocab word=joke]joke[/vocab]. I'm not that smart.

"that smart" means "so smart that I can finish the test early." Basically, "that" refers to "finishing your test before 3."

(10) Cherry: Listen
It's not a joke! Study right now.

"right now" means "exactly now" or "at this moment". (Don't wait. Study now.)

(11) Tyler: Listen
Well, I eat lunch at 12. And, that's in 10 minutes.

"Well," just means "Hmm," You use it to softly disagree with another person.

(12) Cherry: Listen
[vocab word=review]Review[/vocab] your notes [vocab word=during]during[/vocab] your lunch [vocab word=break]break[/vocab]! Eat and study [vocab word=at the same time]at the same time[/vocab]! Study for an hour [vocab word=until]until[/vocab] 1 o'clock!
(13) Tyler: Listen
Well, I eat my lunch and watch YouTube at the same time. I also check my Facebook. You see, I'm busy during my lunch break.
(14) Cherry: Listen
Fine! [vocab word=fail]Fail[/vocab] your test!
