Miss White: Hello! May I speak to Mrs Chen?

Mrs Chen: This is Mrs Chen speaking. Who's that, please?

Miss White: It's Miss White, Jiaming's teacher.

Mrs Chen: Hello, Miss White. How are you?

Miss White: I'm fine, thank you. And you?

Mrs Chen: I'm fine too. Thanks.

Miss White: Jiaming looks thinner now than before.

Mrs Chen: Yes. I'm worried about him.

Miss White: He looks tired and sometimes he sleeps in class.

Mrs Chen: Really?

Miss White: He's often late for school. Does he go to bed very late?

Mrs Chen: Yes. He always goes to bed later than me. Does he have a lot of homework?

Miss White: I don't think so.

Mrs Chen: But he always works in his bedroom after dinner.

Miss White: Sometimes Jiaming can't hand in his homework on time and he can't do well in class. Does he have a new computer?

Mrs Chen: Yes, he does. I think he plays computer games too much.

Miss White: Oh, I see.

Mrs Chen: What should I do, Miss White? I'm worried about Jiaming's study.

Miss White: Don't worry. Jiaming is a good boy. I'm sure he can catch up with the others. Let's help him together.

Mrs Chen: Thank you, Miss White.
