W: Hello, Benjamin. Dan and I will be going for a run along the canal Saturday morning. Would you like to join us?
M: I’d love to, but I hurt my ankle last weekend playing football with work colleagues.
W: Oh dear, is it serious?
M: No, not at all. I landed badly during the fall and twisted it a little, but it’s not a big deal. It’s just a little swollen and I should be fine for next Saturday if you still want to go for a jog then.
W: I won’t be here next Saturday. I’m going to the zoo.
M: The zoo?
W: Yeah. My little nephew turns six. And he loves the zoo. So the whole family is going.
M: Oh, okay then. I haven’t been to a zoo since I was a kid.
W: They are nowhere near as popular as they used to be when we were children. I personally feel sorry for the poor animals stuck in cages. But there’s no denying they are fun and educational for children.
M: Do you know if Dan will be around next Saturday?
W: Yeah, I think he will. Just send him a text message. He’s always keen on physical activities.
M: That’s true. Dan is extremely fit and healthy. He goes to the gym most days, plus tennis two or three times a week.
W: So what have you been doing to stay busy while you’ve had that swollen ankle?
M: I’ve been catching up on some reading. I was given three books over Christmas, and I’m only now getting around to reading them.
