Tim talked to Harry about the lecture.
Harry: What did you think of the lecture?
Tim: I thought it was very interesting.
Harry: Did you really?
Tim: Yes, didn't you?
Harry: Certainly not. I thought he talked a lot of rubbish.
Tim: So you think you know more than he does.
Harry: Well, take coal for instance.
Tim: What about it?
Harry: Coal won't become important again.
Tim: Why not?
Harry: It's too dirty. They won't be able to find people to work down coal mines in the future. Tim: They'll invent new kinds of machinery.
Harry: Nonsense. The only sort of power they'll use in the future is atomic power.

Student 1: I suppose so.
Reporter: What about you? Are your parents wealthy?
Student 2: No, certainly not.
Reporter: Do you work during the holidays?
