【原文】M:Hey,Barbara,my bowling team is a player short for a tournament.Do you want to join us?
W:I'm not really good at bowling.If it was badminton,I'd be the right person.
M:Well,we need someone,otherwise we will lose our place.
W:I'll tell you what—I'll do it if you cannot find anyone better than me.
M:Well,the tournament is tomorrow night at 7:00 p.m.Not sure if we will find anyone else by then.
W:Let me ask around.My cousin Dave used to play bowling well.
M:Well,if he is available,the sport is his.
W:Oh no,I remember that he is going to a new museum exhibition tomorrow.
M:Not to worry,we'll find someone else.
W:What about Henry?He's our boss,and he's quite sporty.He plays football.
M:Great idea.I'll drop him an email.
W:Sorry I couldn't do it.
