Pay attention to the ways people say hello and goodbye in the photos below:

AT UNIVERSITY

John: Good morning, Professor Stevens! How are you?

Professor Stevens: Good morning, John. I’m fine! How about you?

John: I’m fine too. Professor… could you repeat the last lesson again, please? I have some questions.

Professor Stevens: Yes, John! Could we study in the afternoon? I have class now.

John: Of course, professor. So… goodbye!

Professor Stevens: Goodbye, John!

IN THE CAFETERIA...

Sam Li: Hi, Maria! Long time no see... how are you doing?!

Maria: Hello, Sam! It’s true! How long time! I’m pretty good. And you?

Sam Li: Good, too! So, tell me…news?

Maria: Yeah, I’m going to Japan on my next vacation.

Sam Li: How nice! I will visit my relatives there, too. Oh, look it. It’s time to come back to the job. I’m sorry, I have to go now, Maria. Is your phone number the same?! I’ll call you tonight to discuss about our trip, ok?

Maria: Yeah, it is! Ok, we talk later! Have a nice day! See you!

Sam Li: See you too!

AT WORK...

Mr. Smith: It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Taylor. You are welcome in our company. By the way, the lecture about the Economy was really interesting!

Mr. Taylor: Thank you very much, Mr. Smith.

Miss Claire: Mr. Smith, the next meeting will start in few minutes.

Mr. Smith: Oh, yes…excuse me, Mr. Smith, I must go.
