-------Lesson Dialog-------

----Formal ----

Sari: Eh, katanya kemarin si Lisa harus pulang dari kantornya jalan kaki selama 4 jam loh.

Putra: Ya ampun, karena keretanya tidak jalan, ya? Kalau dipikir-pikir, aku merasa beruntung kalau kemarin aku ambil cuti.

Sari: Iya yah, kalau tidak aku juga bingung harus bagaimana sendirian.

Putra: Iya kan? sudah gempa bumi besar, macet di mana-mana, jaringan telepon lumpuh seharian, mati lampu pula.

Sari: Katanya sih facebook masih bisa jalan. Tapi kalau enggak jalan, kita mendingan janjian bertemu di tempat yang sama.

Putra: Iya benar juga. Bagaimana dengan lapangan di dekat kantor pos? Kemarin banyak orang-orang yang mengungsi ke situ.

Sari: Boleh juga, itu kan kira-kira setengah perjalanan dari kantor kamu ke rumah.

----Formal English----

Sari: Hey, they said Indah had to walk four hours home from her office, you know.

Putra: My goodness, it's because the train wasn’t running, wasn't it? When I think about it, I feel lucky that I took a day off yesterday.

Sari: You're right, I wouldn't have had a clue what to do if I were alone.

Putra: Right? First of all the earthquake was big, traffic jams were everywhere, the telephone network was down all day, and there was a blackout as well.

Sari: They said that Facebook was still working. But if it's not working, then we better make a pact to meet up at the same place.

Putra: Yes you're right. How about the field near the post office? There were many people evacuating to there.

Sari: Yeah we can do that, that's about halfway from your office to home.
