d: don't u see? he is still sleeping.
m: my goodness! i can't believe this! it’s almost nine. he got to get up now. don't u remember we are required to make up a three people dialogue for tomorrow's oral class?
d: yes, i do. you wake up tommy and i will play one more round of war craft.
m: you'd better stop playing right now. we don't have much time to prepare this dialogue. tommy! tommy! wake up! time to wake up!
t:five more minutes, please.

t: (tommy sits up in his bed) can i lie down two more minutes, please, just two more minutes? when danny finishes his game, i will be fine.(yawns) i don't know why i am so so sleepy. (tommy lies down again.)
m: guys!!! i am really angry now. time waits for nobody. if you two don't stop what you are doing now, i will find somebody else to be my partners.
d and t: all right. all right. we listen to u.
m: that's more like it. we need will power.
d and t: what is will power?
m: will power is trying hard not to do something that you really want to do.
d: you mean like trying not to play war craft?

tommy: mike, can i lie down a minute? my back hurts.
mike: no! no! no! let's finish our work first before we do anything. we need will power!!!
danny and tommy: that's true. we need will power! we listen to you.
